TAFT SPEAKS AT HAMPTON EXERCISES
Principal Gregg Announces
Several Big Donations To
Institution. Major Motion
To the Speakers
Hampton, Va., May 5—William Howard Taft, president of the Hampton Institute Board of Trustees spoke at the Hampton's Contribution to American Education.
He also paid a warm tribute to the three principals of Hampton—General H. C. Armstrong, Hospital, H. D. Friesell and Dr. James E. Gregg.
"Hampton Institute is" he said, the motto of a new system of education. Armstrong with the problem of fitting thousands of a backward race for life and progress, concealed the possibility of uniting the training with that of the land in a useful process.
The glory of Hampton is the missionary spirit which its educational methods are instinct."
Doctor Gregg announced the following gifts: from the family of Captain Charles C. Wilder, $20,000; from the General of the Army, $25,000; from the maintenance of Ogden Hall; from the family of Mr. Ogden suitable platform furniture for the completion of Robert C. Ogden Auditorium and from the Hampton Abumn Association, $2500 to be used for scholarships.
Dr. M. Ashby Jones, of Atlanta, speaking for the white South declared:
"The glory of Hampton is that she is the first to give the Negro an opportunity to speak to the public against the slavery against the Negro was that it determined his life for him, mark? the limits of his achievements and determined the quality of his contribution to the world, what has said so much about what the Negro is capable of for he has never had an opportunity to speak for himself. Hampton has taught the Negro loyalty for racial instincts and racial inheritances.
Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tolkegue for the education that the Negro type of education has more than proved its worth and justified its place in the scheme of national progress.
Homer L. Ferguson, president of the Newport News Shipbuilding and Drydock Company has been elected a member of the Institute Institution of Trustees.

Biggest Athletic Event of The Year To be Run Under Auspices Y. M. C. A. and Afro American. Runners From Howard Lincoln and Morgan College to Compete.
When the official starter of the Amateur Athletic Union fires his gun at Park Heights and Kateave, this Saturday morning he will send a course five miles long and a group of runners white probably not as large i numbers as have competed in previous races of this kid ever held in this city, but if previous records count for anything the argy of men will outclass anything that has ever been witnessed in our town before. For there will be Robert Earl Johnson, our own Earl, winner of two Marathonhs, and Junior 5-mile champion of America; Robert Boley, who has one Marathon race victory to his credit; John Cresswell who pushed Johnson to the limit when he won his first race five runners from Howard University team won the trophy in the last Marathon race, to say nothing of runners from Lincoln University who may be counted to make a good showing.
The local Y. M. C. A. who, with the Afro-American is singing the race has a large list of men running under its name, and the last statement give out by them was to the effect that the handsome silver loving cup team trophy will never leave Baltimore, unless it be over the dead bodies of every member of their team.
Aside from the silver cup the management of the race will give 10 medals to the first ten men to finish the prescribed course, the first to be a beautiful gold design, two silver medals for second and third places, respectively, and 7 bronze for the next seven runners.
Admirers of the sport will be pleased to know that the indomitable like Bannister of Afro American fame, father of six little girls etc., has decided to cry one more run and this time he will be under the white triangle "Y", and will make an effort if not to win, to a foal to have his share of points in the winning of the club trophy for the "Y".
COURSE OF THE RACE
The race will start on Park Height avenue, and take a course down that avenue to Kate avenue to Reisterstown, Road, to Drudl

WHITE RESIDENTS OF

With the election of two colored candidates to the city council, and in addition a Republican Mayor, Baltimore went wild Tuesday night. Warner T. McGuinn, the new councilman from the 14th Ward was elected by a majority of 618 votes, while Won L. Fitzgerald in the 11th Ward gave plurality of 1420. For the first time in the history of the city these two men will represent the colored people in municipal affairs.
The fact that William F. Browning, the newly elected Mayor came out in a stand for the election of McGuinn and Fitzgerald practically insured his election. His plurality was less than ten thousand while more than sixteen thousand colored voters gave him their full support. Mr. Browning's largest majorities were in the 5th, 14th and 17th Wards, where colored people reside and in large number wards gave Mr. Browning a clear plurality of 3,632 votes. The 17th Ward, where three thousand colored voters are registered and only a few white gave Mr. Browning the largest plurality of any ward in the city. The vote for Browning in the big colored wards or Browning is as follows:
FIFTH WARD
Browning, Rep. 1301
Williams, Dem. 811
Browning's Plurality, 490

While things were quiet in the 17th Ward that elected Mr. Browning because the predominating color made his election certain, the 17th Ward buzzed like a bee fly.

EDITORIAL
MR. VOTER. YOU DID IT.
Colored voters, 16.296 of you, boosted a Republican mayor, comptroller, and two colored city councilmen into office, something you have never done before in the history of the city. You did this while the most influential white newspapers in the city, the NEWS and the morning and evening SUN opposed the candidates you supported, and dragged the whole city through the mire of the race prejudice issue. Combining with the thoughtful element of the other race you elected these men to office for the sake of your own progress and with the promise of a bigger, safer, and better Baltimore.
The State and the country can be proud of Baltimore's population, certainly the AFRO-AMERICAN is tremendously proud of the fact that it played its part in bringing about the result so ardently worked for by its readers.
The election carries with it a lesson to both parties. Anyone can read it as he runs.
It is—that a platform can be found upon which the people of both races can work together for mutual helpfulness.
It is—that no one believes longer in the old bugaboo of "Negro domination." While colored people have desires to share in the gratutities of party victory, there is no wish on their part to work ontrary to the common good.
It is—that the man who drags religious issues into the campaign does so as his own peril.
It is—that the colored people have confidence in their own sufficient to nominate and elect them to office in any case wherever the opportunity presents itself.
It is—that the white candidate for office can not ignore one-seventh of the voting population, who are colored, and then expect their support.
THE AFRO-AMERICAN is frank in acknowledging that it advocated Mr. Broening's election because Mr. Broening promised a square deal. Manifestly such a candidate is to be preferred to Mr. Williams, whose party offers the colored voter no promise, but on the contrary, insists and maligns him.
Colored voters helped elect Mr. Broening, but colored voters are going to ask no special favors. It is enough that he is going to be "Mayor of all the people." To be that in the fullest sense of the word is all that any citizen can ask. Meantime the "AFRO" congratulates the 16,296 voters of Baltimore who made last Tuesday and the next four years a grand occasion.

Immigration Officials Predict A Wave of Jups and Chinese
Chicago, May 6—Abraham Bowers, white, Immigration Secretary
London, Eng., May—In a clash at the Winchester repatriation camp between Americans and South African black soldiers, more than a score of Americans were injured, according to a report by the Americans who served in the British Army, and ill feeling between the Americans and the British blacks have existed for some time. The American whites have sought to use some of their strong arm methods to attack the Americans, and their conduct beconductable to the local Britishers. The Britishers poured on the Americans with sticks, and things were quite likely for a while long the troops and police took a stand. It is believed however that the unhappy American soldiers have been the main sons of the native sons since the native sons have been the main sons of the native sons.

Warrenton. Gia., May2—Benjamin Richards, a young farmer, who shot and killed his wife and wounded his sister in the back. His body was riddled with bullets and burn on in the daytime before a crowd of three hundred persons.
The trouble started when Richards went to the home of the divorced man in the afternoon and shot her dead. He then turned the gun on her sister wounding her severely.
REPLIES WITH BULLETS
Ronny Gunn, white passed the place in his automobile just as Richards was leaving and having seen a shocker, he stumped in what the trouble was about Richards' reply was five shots from his gun fired directly at Gunn who immediately put his automobile to the utmost speed it would carry and came into town. Every shot stunned the car, but fortunately Gunn, hissed at him. Gunn brought the news to town a posses of a hundred headed by Sheriff Brinkley and armed with rifles they started out to capture Richards. He was located in a woods about a mile from the city just about dark. In the glom of the wood the Negro had his men who were unable to see him.
City Clerk Williford got a brief glimpse of Richards and immediately afterwards received a load of shot in his right thigh fired at close range. A little later the sheriff was brought into town with a load of rifles. The Negro's shotgun. It is feared that the injury may proversorious.
Later in the evening the Baker boys were shot in the arm by the Negro, in the swamp where he had been surrounded.
SEVERAL DUMPUNTIES
STIRRED
About 9 o'clock Sheriff Sturdevant, of Tallafen county, joined the posses, which by this time had been increased to several hundred people. He brought with hip a pack of bloodhounds. In fact the posses, which by this time had been aroused over the affair, Citizens poured in to increase the man hunters.
This morning quantities of gasoline were poured into the swamp where Richards held out, in an effort to burn him out. As long as his ammunition lasted he kept the lychers at bay, but was finally hit by a bullet. He was shot and killed him with bullets. His body was then burned before a crowd of 300 who took off a day's holiday in order to be in at the "killing".

FOUNTAIN'S CASE IN HIGH COURT
Attorney O'Dunne Asks for New Trial Mob Disturbance At Easton Given As His Reason.
Thru his attorney,ugene O'Dunne of this city,Isaiah Fountain has appealed to the Court of Appeals of the State,which sits at Annapolis.
While the police and deputy sheriffs have been haggling over the reward of $5000 that was offered for his recapture, Fountain's counsel has gone quietly to work and filed his motion before the appellate court.
While this action gives Fountain a chance for his life,the question for the Court of Appeals to settle will be his guilt or innocence but only whether he has had a fair trial.Friends of justice through the state as well as the counsel are certain that the condemned man will be granted a new trial on the constitutional grounds that the mob disturbances in Easton made a fair and impartial trial impossible.
CHANGE OF VENUE
When questioned by a reporter of the Afro-American on Wednesday, Mr. O'Dunne said that the question of a change of venue had been considered during the trial at Easton, but that the only other alternate was to have the trial at Chestertown, and of the two places he preferred to remain at Easton. It was pointed out that the same mob that came by automobile to Easton and by their threats of lynching influenced the judge and jury, that have gone to Chestertown, and that the only hope of saving Ponuthal's life was to have him convicted at once, transported to Baltimore for safe keeping and then appeal to a higher court.

RALEIGH COLOPED
VOTERS DIVIDED
Boleish, N. C., Nov. 8. The effort of the colored men to get in on the municipal elections, in this city was defeated by them. In H. Yomne, an old-time shrewd white politician who is regarded as an adopt in handling our people. There were $82 of our registered voters, and $100 of votes received did not amount to 200 which plainly indicates that the others remaining away from the polls. The daily newspaper, all franx state, reported that voters together, there would have been something doing.
The following documents have come into the hands of the editor. He has absolute proof of their authenticity. The first document was sent out last August at the request of the American Army, which is the French military force which is the means of communication between the American and French forces. It represents American and not French opinion ad we have been informed that when the members of the French army are sent to this document among the Prefects and Soup Prefects of France, they ordered such copies to be collected and burned.
FRENCH MILITARY MISSION Stationed with the American Army August 17, 1918 SECRET INFORMATION CONCERNING BLACK AMERICAN TROOPS
1. It is important for French officers who have been called upon to take over black american troops or to live in place contact with them, to have an exact idea of the position occupied by Negroes in the United States. The information set forth in the following commentaries on black american officers and it is to their interest to have these matters made known and widely disseminated. It will devolve likewise on the French Military Authorities to give information subject to the control of the population in cantons occupied by American colored troops.
2. The American attitude upon the Negro question may seem matter for discussion to many French minds. But we French are not in our province if we unde take to take the Negro question "American" opinion is unanimous on the color question and does not admit of any discussion.
The increasing number of Negroes in the United States (about 15,000,000) would create a white race in the United States by a manace of race inequality were it not that an impassable gulf has been made between them.
As this danger does not exist for the French race, the French public has become accustomed to

N.A.A.G.P. HEADS SCORE PEOPLE OF BALTIMORE
The reunion of the trustees of Trinity A, M. E. Church to receive Rev. James G. Martin as their postmaster has caused a stir in church circles during th week.
Rev. Martin was appointed to Trinity by Bishop Johnson of its local church to meet a meeting at Cambridge, Md. Members of the church clan that they were promised a minister who was transferred from the Kennett Conference, and have thus for almost eternity refused to do doors of the church. Rev. Martin, the church of the church members of the church to discuss the situation was scheduled for Saturday, Saturday night and Bishop John Hurst, Presiding Elder D. G. HIll and Rev. Mr. Martin were among among the members of the church on the corner of the avenue and Biddle St. outside the church. However, the trustees afflicted the meeting off and the doors of the church remained closed. There were no services on Sunday all day and the leading members of the trustee board were present unless Bishop Johnson resigned his appointment.
To a representative of The African American, one of the members said: "We have nothing against Rev. Martin thee, he is a true Christian postman and minister, but we had asked the Bishop received from him the services of a minister, who is not known in this city, our church has not gone forward as fast as it might in the past years, and we need the services of a pastor, who can do for Trinity what he, Brooks has done for Elkridge. Five years ago there was a split in the congregation of Trinity when lives.

So far the AFRO-AMERICAN has received a total of four dollars to be handed over to the Federated Charities for little eight year child Gatekeeper, and to add to this total in order to raise the $15 necessary to keep this toy to, suffering with consumption in the country.
Readers will remember that Cateeze who is a victim of the plague that has carried off so many children, has parents who are too poor to be able to afford their feeding foods necessary to keep this child alive. When the Federated charities food her she was nearly gone, but they sent her to the country, and there she has improved remarkably in her new home she has plenty of fresh air and plenty of good food. In amour she has been strong and healthy like other children and ready to go back to school, but it will take $115 to keep her in the country home for the rest of the year. So the Federated charities will appeal to the readers of the Afro to come to their assistance.
So far there has been $4.00 turned in for this fund. And there remains now a balance of $111. Will the readers of the Afo help save Collette who has had such a hard time trying to hive?

Folks Here Are Said To Be Indifferent to Work of the Association _ And Waiting For Someone Else To Do Its Part.
Before an audience estimated at more than twelve hundred persons, Moorfield Story, National President; of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and John R. Shilland, executive secretary, secured the people of Brownsville nightly afternoon an apparent invitation to the National Association, which is doing so much to secure Justice to the colored man.
The meeting was held at Bethel A. M. E. Church and Dr. Harry McCard, president, of a fine local branch, presided.
Mr. Storyer, who is president of the American Har Association said "The question of the matter is of 12,000,000 alcohol is more important than whether the women shall vote today, or next week. It is more important than the question of how much alcohol shall be allowed to a glass of rum or a league of unions for the world. Charity begins at the university to expand to establish democracy for the Balkans the Poles and the others, when democracy is in jeopardy at home.
"I am not thinking of the colored people when I protest that they ought to have, a square deal. I am thinking of the colored people to derive 12,000,000 Nerves of their tomorrow it will be all right to add five million to this number, and the day after, perhaps it will be the people of German descent.

Watkins Now In Illinois University
In a special letter to the Afro-American, Lucian B. Watkins of this city states that on account the prejudice against African Americans was forced to transfer from Illinois College of Photography to the University of Illinois.
The head of the Faculty of Vocational Education in a letter to the head of the college of Photography:
Only pity can be expressed for those who are fettered with such selfish, ignorant and unchristian traditions, and that in the encounter of Illinois he will encounter no such prejudice and will have the opportunity to follow his chosen vocation annoyed by a student body of very dim vision. In reply President Bissell routes Mr. Watkins in blind prejudice, Mr. Watkins has conducted himself like a gentleman in every respect since he has been with us, and we could not ask for better conduct.
In the majority, students who are by far in the majority, are quite indignant at the conduct of the four Southern students. They regret that their side of the case could not be solved and will be pleased to read your letter to the students at assembly tomorrow morning".

In Anything Little Celeste's Life
Arrested For Illegal Registration
Freddick Holborn, 1033 Wolfe St. was arrested and ordered before the grand jury on the charge of illegal registration.
Hobson was rounded up by agents of the Supervisors of Election, who have felt that the recent migration brought many laborers here who have their names on the voting books in other cities. Hobson came to Baltimore from Annapolis and registered, failing to have his name removed from the Annapolis records. Due to the threat of his start to vile in both places, and his failure to notify the Annapolis authorities was due to ignorance of the law and neglect. Hobson will probably get off with a light penalty. Attorney McCard is looking after his interests.

OF BALTIMORE
as in cities the same size have three
thousand, both speakers asked the
questions. "Can it be that Baltimore
is indifferent to the questions of col-
or or discrimination and of lynching?
Does Baltimore care, or is it willing
to sit down and wait for someone
to answer?"
Mr. Shilttay spoke of two donations to the Anti-Lynching Fund in New York on Tuesday night, one by Mine, Walker of $5,000 and another by a man who had never been to school in his life of $3,000. Baltimore was urged to make its influence felt by joining the Association and, by contributing to the Anti-Lynching Fund. One hundred and fifty persons joined by way of response, and a drive projected for several thous and more.

Heaven now retaineth our treasure Earth alone his casket keeps and the unseen love to linger Where our little darling sleeps.
By his mother, SARAH PATTERSON
A light from our home is gone
A voice we love is still
A chair is vacant in our home Which never can be filled.
Grandma, FRANCES PATTERSON
Tenderly we nursed and cared for him And stood beside his deathbed.
And gazed upon his suffering face Until his spirit fled.
His aunt, LILLIE JOHNSON.
MONROE—In sad but loving remembrance of my dear husband, Samuel A. Monroe, who departed this life May 9th, 1916, three years ago. In silence No eyes can see me weep But many silent tears I shed When others are asleep.
There is grief that cannot find comfort.
And wounds that cannot be healed
And sorrow deep in the human heart
That cannot be revealed.
By his wife, JULIA D. MONROE.
A CARD OF THANKS
Mr. and Mrs. David Waters wishes

We know that as soon as the attorney found there was no hope of getting a fair trial, he could have asked to have the case removed to some other place like Baltimore or Towson, and the judge would have been bound to grant the request. In addition, while the daily papers have been stating that Mr O'Dunne received no fees for conducting the case, a mortgage for $500 on three horses and one colt, one wagon, two carriages, several sets of harness, two cultivators, eight hogs and young pigs, 60 chickens, five ducks and one-half interest in the wheat and peas now growing on the farm owned by Isaiah Fountain's father, was made over to Mr O'Dunne, who, as soon as his client escapes, steps forward and puts up half of his client's fee for his recapture
We do not know what motive Mr. O'Dunne had in entering the case from the beginning, or what motive he has in staying in the case, nor do we question these motives, but nevertheless we believe that a satisfactory reply can clear up some of the mystery that hangs over the mob trial at Easton.
The spectacle of Dr. DuBois' excursion to France under the constant and watchful eye of the United States Secret Service men, while Dr. Moton made the same trip without any guarding detectives on his trail, and with a government order commanding all officers to render him all possible assistance and "every opportunity to make any observation he may wish to make," speaks volumes for the attitude of the Wilsonian administration towards these two leaders among colored people.
Southerners, who are rather used to violent methods are getting a dose of their own medicine in the distribution of bombs that the Bolsheviki are making throughout the country.
Senator Hardwick, one of the red hot opponents of women's suffrage, because colored women would be permitted to vote, and Governor Billon of Mississippi, the chief lynch state of the South were among those "honored" by the Reds with packages containing infernal machines. Unfortunately Mrs. Hardwick and her colored maid fell victims to this most malevolent scheme of getting rid of enemies.
President Wilson knew that Dr. Moton would go to France, in his own inimitable way tell the colored xsoldiers to "keep in their places," and then return without more ado to his work at Tuskegee Institute. Mr. Wilson also knew that none of the discriminations would escape the eagle eye of DuBois, who, on his return, would be sure to give them to the public, thereby disclosing the ghastly skeleton of America's closet to the eyes of the civilized world. The result shows the President's wisdom.
SUPERSTITIONS
How prevalent is superstition is a question frequently propounded. Lately Prof. Edmund S. Collins asked this question of more than five hundred students in the University of Oregon, and found to his astonishment that over half of them believed in one kind of superstition on another, thereby settling for once and all that only those steeped in ignorance believe in signs and wonders.
Dr. Moton on his return issues a statement, saying that colored officers were not failures, and that colored troops were not rapists. In a general way he hands the bravery and the behavior of the colored overseas fighter, but says no word of the unfair treatment to which colored units were subjected. These things, he says, he leaves for a later date.
On the other hand DuBols returns and publishes first thing a batch of government "hate" orders, among them the dumable document, printed in another column, arguing the French people not to treat colored soldiers as their equals.
The investigations of Professor Conlin showed that only one person in the five hundred believed in the following: putting left shoe on first, crossing through funeral procession, right eye twitching, lucky; left eye twitching, untucky; dog howling at night, death sign; fear of entering cemetery at night drop knife or fork, company coming.
DuEois is "disappointed" with the action of Dr. Moton. He ought not be. Ultra conservative as the Tuskegee head is, no one who knows him would expect otherwise. We are rather surprised that Dr. Moton balked when it came to speaking for the black world and dodged the sessions of the Pan African Conference, but we are not disappointed, no sir.
A large number believed in the sign that breaking a mirror is unlucky, spilling salt is sign of a quarrel, and that the ground hog fortells the weather. Investigations showed further that twice as many women as men were superstitious. This is of course expected, but who would expect to find that one man out of every six believed in knocking on wood, or that one man out of every twenty stops to pick up pins he sees for fear of having bad luck. All of which goes to show that if the thousands of years of civilization has worked among the flower of the American price, it has not eliminated the superstitions fostered during the savage state.
We are not any more disappointed than we are with Dr. DuBois. We realize that DuBois is a radical, and that Moton is ultra conservative. In this trip to Paris, both men acted according to their natures. Nothing ought to surprise anybody at this. Unfortunately for Dr. Moton, the war bringing the revolution in Russia and Germany has had its effect in America. During the last four years, conservatives have deserted the party or Dr. Moton by the wholesale. They are continuing to desert, and the head of Tuskegee finds it increasingly hard to find any supporters among his own people. Eventually this following will be so small; that not even the President of the United States will presume to believe that Dr. Moton can represent all colored people.
A FIGHT FOR MIXED JURIES.
Two colored men sat on the jury in West Virginia during the term just ended. They were selected not because they were given privileges by their fellows, but because in a test case the highest court of the state said that when colored men were not on the juries, colored people were not granted the equal protection of the law.
The law of Maryland like the law of other States provides that a person accused of crime must be tried, by a jury of his peers, which means, according to Webster's Dictionary, "TWELVE PERSONS WHO ARE HIS EQUAL IN NATURAL GIFTS, SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICS, SOCIAL BANK OR PERSONAL CONDITION."
Cardinal Gibbons, venerable head of the Catholic church in this country in a recent interview comes out for the ownership of homes. He says:
"The root of the commonwealth is in the homes of the people. In proportion as our people own their homes, the country gains in stability."
What the Cardinal realizes is that no one judges a community by one or two homes in it. Just as a few birds do not make spring, so the ownership of homes by a few persons does not make for the stabilized community. The Cardinal would have us believe that the community is safest to live in; most orderly, clean and pleasant to the eye, where the residents own their homes.
The principle at the bottom of jury trial is that every accused shall have persons of the same estate as himself to settle upon the evidence of his guilt or innocence.
As long as there are white people who believe themselves superior to the colored prisoner at the bar, he is not being tried by his equals, but by his 'superiors' just the very thing that the spirit and letter of the law says shall not be done.
Going further, the Cardinal advises:
"Let your home be your own home; the sanctuary of domestic peace, sobriety and parental love. Let discontent and angry words be banished from it, and under such influences your children will grow in your virtue. Above all, let it be the asylum of daily prayer, and then the angels of God and the God of angels, will be there."
Just as the Supreme Court of West Virginia has made the decision that a colored man is denied equal protection of the law when colored men are not put on the grand and petit juries, so eventually every State in the Union must also come to recognize the wisdom and justice of the same policy. Assuredly it will not be done, however, until a test case is presented, but the people who get behind the proposition and put it over, will write their names in letters of gold in the history of the State of Maryland.
On home ownership and on family life of the right type. Cardinal Gibbons bases the stability of the community, and he is right. Any community that possesses these two blessings will have all others added into it.
Josephus Daniels' Navy prides itself on the fact that no man of war has ever transported colored troops, that there are no colored enlisted men, except mess attendants, and, of course, no officers.
BUT, colored me build the ships, load the ships, coal the ships, and do everything else EXCEPT serve the ships.
These are just two questions that the Afro-American asks Mr. Eugene O'Dunne, white, the attorney who so cleverly conducted the Fountain case at Easton.
1. Why was it that you did not ask for a change of venuue, so that the case could have been heard in some other place besides Easton?
Mr Eimnet Scott, in his position as assistant to the Secretary of War, has not been able to make the army give the colored soldier a square deal, but for those who are inclined to criticize his work, it is apropos to recall the remark of a returned overseas lieutenant of the 92nd Division, who said: "I want you to know that army life for officers in France was H.... but if it had not been for Mr. Scott, it would have been a good deal worse."
2. What was your motive in accepting $500 from Fountain as a retainer's fee, and then offering $250 of the accused man's money to any one who would recapture him?
Despite Mr. O'Dunne's able defense of the accused and his endeavors in behalf of an appeal, these questions demand a satisfactory reply before a large number of persons can believe in his sincerity in conducting the case.
PEOPLE'S FORUM
IT IS YOUR MOTHER
MOTHERS' DAY—MAY 10th
In obedience to God's law which he handed to Moses and promised to all-in-part "Honor thy Mother and thy days shall be long"
Let us show to the world the great debt we owe by especially honoring our mothers. Let us show her that we appreciate her and give her credit for a large part of our success. Let us do all we can to wake up for past neglect of that little-known, half-neglected mother who has been given so little credit in the past, and is so seldom mentioned among the world's great achievers.
Let us begin paying our mother every tribute of honor respect and devotion and gratitude that love and duty can suggest
Let us acknowledge the debt we owe her by wearing the wearings of her creation, the emblem of motherhood, happily chosen.
What could more fittingly represent motherhood? That beautiful flower with its whiteness symbolizing purity, its lasting quilts denoting faithfulness, its fragrance love, its wide field of growth, chorally melodious music, and insisting the neverending drudgery, the preparation of meals, mending of clothes, remain at home when all others are out spending a pleasant evening, often up working when all others are in bed and asleep, in the home draining her very life's blood with a perpetual sacrifice, giving her all for her home and her children, yet never asking not expecting compensation. During up under course of training, heavenly patience, superb dignity and always ready to give a helping hand even to her ungrateful son or daughter.
It is indeed a. strange thing that the world sees only the successful man or son, when the woman, or mother, is the rounds of the tadder by which he climbed. E. W. JOHNSON.
Davenport want Representatives Not Bossed By Democratic Machine.
To the Editor of the Afro-American
We have passed thru a very important primary election. After the primaries we united in the 17 ward for election of the Republican ticket in this great city. Today, May 5th we are hopeful of going over the top with the entire Republican ticket, with Wm. F. Breening leading our forces. Our work is not finished. We are in need of a candidate for committeeman for the 17th ward, one who does not have to take orders from the Democratic machine; we also need a good upright man from the aforesaid ward as a candidate for the legislature from the fourth legislative district to the House of Delegates. Let us call the attention of the white Republicans to the fact that we want one of these candidates to be a man of our race. The District is Republican and by reason of the majority given in the 17th ward, we are only asking what is fair and just. Therefore I recommend a conference being called of representative citizens of the 17th ward in these important matters and thrush them out and stop the Democratic machine from naming our candidates as heretofore.
Hoping this will meet the approval of the voters of the 17th Ward and District, Jam

A colored woman and a white man were caught spooning on 9th street near "Magnitude while the husband was supposed to be A W. O L. Eut. the husband came back home unexpectedly, too quick and discovered that while he was gone someone else had been there, so when he came in and saw this guy in his pajamas, that was every bit of it, then a foot race started. He ran this bird thru Tenth street in his underwear and saw a terrible crowd was chasing him yelling, "Catch him!" stop him catch him. He was captured in front of the Ruby theatre after a hard race. He was arrested and taken back to the place so he could put his clothes on and he and the woman were carried on in.

Returned Soldier Mistakes Atlanta, Ga., for France And Is Severely Beaten With Baseball Bat.
Atlanta, Ga., May 6—That there may be a show down for equal rights and a consequent clash of races in the event of them not being granted, is more and more apparent from day to day.
Benjamin Herne, a returned soldier from France went into a drug store to make some purchases, and on his way out possibly thinking of the delightful surroundings of France and forgetting that he was in the city of Georgia, stopped at a soda fontain and asked for a refreshing drink. Forgetting all Biblical admonitions with reference to "If thine brother ask these for a drink ete," one Powell a man of the lighter of the lighter behind the counter and proceeded to pound it against the soldiers head. Herne was picked up insensible, taken to Grady Hospital, and later to his quarters at Camp Gordon. Powell was arrested for disorder from Muster and disposed of from Muster, telling of the story says:
"While this is the first police court case growing directly out of an attempt on the part of returned Negro soldiers to force 'race equality' so utter as is known, it has not passed unnoticed for several weeks, by patrons of street cars and people in tailway and other public places in manila, that there is a developed difference in the attitude, the attitude bearing toward the white race on the part of the Negro soldier as he was prior to "going across" and the Negro soldier who has come back from "No Man's Land"

treating the Negro with familiarity and indulgence.
This familiarity and indulgence are matters of grievous concern to the Americans. They consider them an affront to their national policy. They are afraid of contact with the British will invade in black Americans aspirations which to them (the whites) appear intolerable. It is of the utmost importance that every effort be made to avoid profoundly estranging American opinion.
Although a citizen of the United States the black man is regarded as an inferior being with whom relations of business or service are only possible. The black is constantly being censured for his want of intelligence and discretion, his lack of civic and professional conscience and his tendency toward undue influence.
The vices of the Negro are a constant menace to the American who has to repress him sterically. For instance, the black American troops in France have by themselves given rise to as many deterents as the army will get the enemy. And get the (black American) soldiers sent us have been the choicest with respect to physique and morals, for the number disqualified at the time of mobilization was enormous.
CONCLUSION
1. We must rise to the rise of any pronounced degree of intimacy between French officers and black officers. We may be courteous and available with these last, but we cannot deal with them on the same plane as with the white American officers without deeply wounding the latter. We must not eat with them, must not sit with them, must not use them outside of the requirements of military service.
2. We must not comment too highly the black American troops particularly in the presence of the (white) Americans. It is all right to recognize their good qualities and their services, but only in modern times, strictly in keeping with the truth.
3. Make it a point to keep the native cottontop population from "spoiling" the Negroes. (White) Americans become greatly incensed at any public expression of intimacy between white women and black men. They have been accustomed to agitating the picture in the "Vie Parisienne" edition "The Child of the Desert" which shows a (white) woman in a "cabinet particulier" with a Negro. Familiarity on the part of white women with black men is furthermore a source of colonialist anger in it an overwhelming menace to the prestige of the white race.
Military authority cannot intervei directly in this question, but it can through the civil authorities exercise some influence on the

were slow in getting out to the polls. Their ardious labors helped give Mr. McGuinn, the bare majority of 18 that will send him to the council. While there is rejoicing in the McGuinn camp there is respect for the tough fight his opponent, Daniel C. Joseph, white, put up. Unfortunately the white Republicans in his ward actively fought his candidacy until Republican leaders whipped them into line. But this was too late to prevent many of the white Republicans from casting their votes for Josephs.
MCALLISTER DEFEATED
Canvass of the entire situation shows that only one. Republican on the whole ticket failed to, get the united support of the colored voter. This one was Wm. McAlliss, with Ward. who lost to the Democratic candidate by the small majority of votes. The 219 registered colored, this ward, not only oppressed Mcallister, who headed the opposition against Morgan - College, securing property at Hamilton, but they voted for his Democratic opponent When seen Tuesday, Mr Mcallister felt much chagrined and gave out the statement that he that a mistake had been made.

Winners in Tuesday's Election Express Ap, preparation to Those Who Helped to Elect Them.
In a statement to the Afro-American, Mr. Harry W. Nice, speaking for his chief, Mr. Brooming, the mayor who is out of town or a short rest, said: "Say to the readers of the Afro-American, that Mr. Brooming and I both express heartfelt thanks and appreciation for the loyalty of the voters. Democratic and Republican, all over the city who made the result possible Tuesday. You can be sure that Mr. Brooming, beijing Mayor of all the people, will do his best to repay the citizens reposed in him as head of the city government."
Early Wednesday morning Mr. Nice called up J. H. Murphy, the managing editor, and congratulated him upon the first mode of the American-American Republican ticket. When told that the warrants where colored voters are resident in large numbers, notably the 18th and 17th, gave the mayor-elect the largest number of votes, a city larger even than the colored councilman, Mr. Nice said:
"I know it and am proud of it too."
"PITZ 'THANKS VOTERS'"
Mr. William L. Flagggrad next commission for the 19th Ward makes the following statement:
The result of the election is indeed very gratifying. The large majority given me shows conclusively that the people of the 17th Ward have confidence in my ability to handle the situation, for which I sincerely thank them. I want all of the people of Baltimore and the 17th Ward in particular o know that I am their public servant, and place at their bidding my every ability.
"CLOSE SHAVE" SAYS MEGUINN
When approached by a representative on the Afro-American Thursday morning, Mr. Warner T. McGuinn, the next counselor for the 17th Ward
into combination that here are 154 more white voters registered in the 14th Ward than colored, it can be seen that the result was brought about by the help of some of the white voters of the ward and to those I am also grateful. I wish to thank especially, the women of the 14th Ward Communities, for their kind help my daughter would not have been secured. I shall do my best in the City Council to fulfill every plebdaet that has been made during the campaign, especially as regards the health and school conditions of the race."

He gave up my wife declaring that he had done all he could and in fact nothing more could be done for her. He left her coughing, 105 degrees fever, pulse 122.

In less than a month after and pulse reduced to normal.

CASE MAD
How much does it cost to make a Primary Campaign for the City Council? A perusal of the statements that must be filed with the election officials reveals some interesting information as to the amounts expended by the men who aspire for municipal office. The disclosure that George W. Williams spent $41,000 in gaining the nominate nomination for Mayor, people feel that the Councilman candidates also must have put out a good bit of money. Maybe they did, but the amounts that they sent in to the Court House show in the math a very moderate expenses.
All of the candidates paid the sum of $25.00 for filling their papers, which is the only fixed charge that appears in the statements made by them. In so many cases friends donate music, hall rent, advertisements, etc., that would not appear on the list of expenses. Printing and advertising is a large item in every case. The man that advertises himself most, all other things being equal, gets the most money. The man that Mr. Fitzgerald sent $21 for publicity of this kind, John W. Martin, $44, Alexander Williams $75, Warner T. McGuinn, $154, Howard E. Young $450.72, and Leon E. Robinson $60.
All of the candidates paid large sums to the challengers and watchers, who guarded their interests at the polls during the election. At cost something too for hall rent and music.

---
You probably have tried all sorts of remedies on your scalp without getting the desired results, until you have become discouraged and lost confidence in all hair remedies. Thousands of others of similar experience have used by Sobey's Quinade, and have been so pleased with the result they would never again waste their time or money using anything else. Quinade is not an ordinary pomade it is highly medicated and is a real scalp food. Quinade stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, saussing a natural growth of long, straight hair. It will make coarse, stubborn hair look soft and up in the style desired. Quinade will positively align flicking of the scalp, causing most hair and scalp troubles.
To get best results from the use of Quinado, one should shampoo the hair with Quinado soap, a soap made entirely of pure vegetable oils. Quinado sathers very free from oils, but the hair soft and fuzzy and jamparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo. The setting, Sesbora's Quinado and Quinado soap, asking for them by their full names. Price is $25.25 each. For shampoo, ask them to stock these two articles, ask him to obtain them from his wholesaler, for or send in the order, he will supply you. Sesbora's Quinado Co. 79 Eust. 18th St. New York City
