Next Wednesday night, September 15, has been set apart by the officials of the Half Century Exposition, now being held with such signal success at the Coliseum, as mayor's night. Mayor William Hale Thompson and his cabinet will be the guests of the exposition, and the Afro-Americans throughout the city have signified their intentions of giving "Big Bill" the greatest reception he has had since becoming chief executive of Chicago. The Afro-Americans In Chicago point with pride to the fact that it was Mayor Thompson who by official proclamation made August 23 a legal holiday in honor and recognition of the opening of the Half Century Exposition at the Coliseum. Never before in the history of this country had a legal holiday been declared by the chief executive of the city, state or nation in recognition and tribute to the citizens of this race. It remained for "Big Bill" Thompson, the most popular mayor Chicago has ever had, to establish the precedent. That the Afro-Americans in Chicago will show their appreciation for this as well as the many other distinctive evidences of friendship accorded the race by Mayor Thompson by turning out ten thousand strong on Wednesday is a foregone conclusion. The program arranged by the commission embraces speeches by the mayor and two members of his cabinet, a chorus of 600 voices, special concert by the Eighth Regiment band, and the presentation to the mayor by one of the race's exhibitors of the Lord's Prayer worked by hand in gold sill, on heavy black satin and encased in a beautiful gold frame. Next Wednesday night will be essentially the Afro-Americans' night at the Half Century Exposition. Every race man and woman must be on hand to make it the one event of the exposition in which the race of Chicago will rise to the height of appreciation of the best friend they ever had in Chicago's mayoralty chair.

Columbus, O., Sept. 10.—Charges of mismanagement by the commission which is directing Ohio's exhibit at the Chicago exposition in commemoration of fifty years of freedom for the colored race were made to Governor Willis by Pearl W. Chavers, president of the Lincoln Ohio Industrial Training School of Columbus. Chavers says he will ask the governor to call for the resignation of two commissioners —Misses Hallie Q. Brown of Xenia and Nora Johnson of Norfolk. Miss Brown is an instructor in Wil- berforce University. General J. Warren Kiefer of Springfield, General R. B. Brown of Zanesville and Professor Charles Anderson of Wilberforce University are the other members. At a meeting of the commission held here recently all members attending except General Keifer, a resolution proposing that no member be allowed anything for personal service out of the $5,000 commission authorized by the legislature was voted down, according to Chavers, General Brown, who introduced the resolution, was the only member to support it, it was said. Chavers said he had assurance from Chicago that no charge would be made for exhibit space. Now he says the Ohio commission contends that $1.50 per square foot is being charged for space, and a bill for $1,400, representing the charges on the Wilberforce University exhibit, has been received. Other bills which Chavers says are exorbitant are $130 and $300 to Wilberforce professors. COLONEL PAUL BRUCE, COMMANDER OF THE R. G.

Two thousand women delegates are attending the fifteenth annual session of the woman's convention, auxiliary to the national Baptist convention at Olivet Baptist Church. The church on Wednesday, when Mrs. Julia Layton, the president, called the meeting to order, resembled a garden of roses. Charming and intelligent women from all sections of the United States occupied seats on the first floor, while visitors sat in the gallery. "Litting as we climb" is their motto. These noble women work year in and year out for the education of the youth, for Christian development of womanhood. One of the strongest characters attending the convention is Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, corresponding secretary. She is also the president of the National Training School for Girls at Washington, D. C. Miss Burroughs is a platform speaker of national reputation. She is often referred to as the female Booker T. Washington. When she arose to make her annual report she was greeted with applause and waving of handkerchiefs.

SUCH PRACTICES NOT CONDONED HERE Many Patrons Leave Hall While "Chollies" with Spineless Manhood Permit White Ruffian's Presence Without Protest—Great School Is Disgraced, as Well as Chicago's Exclusive Afro-Americans. The graduates and students of Fiske University held a reception and dance at Dreamland Hall last Thursday evening. Visitors and friends of the school attended. A merry waltz was in progress when in paraded a southern white brite and lyncher and his mulatto lover. Right here in Chicago and in the very midst of those who denounce the way the white men treat our women in the South—right in the midst of the highest type of young womanhood, they came and sat and were UNMOLESTED. The outrage! If it were in the very heart of the South, where the young men do not dare to raise a protest, it would have been different; but here, where common sense could have prevented the ugly and disgusting scene, those weak-kneed college-bred chaps with their powder puffs and silken hose lacked the first principles of DEFENDER SOLD AT 35th AND STATE STS BY L. M. HEARD Industrious Young Man Has Special News Stand Which Attracts Attention of Passersby—Sells Other Race Papers, but Defender Leads. Mr. Lawrence M. Heard, who has been a Defender agent for several years, making many of the homes and stores on the south side, has opened a news stand right on the southeast corner of 35th and State streets. Mr. Heard has a six-foot stand built, and from it shows a number of race papers which he sells. The Defender, he says, leads them all. He says he has ten calls for the Defender to one of the other papers. Mr. Heard has put one over the other news vendors, for he is the only man in the city to have a stand on a corner selling race papers. MR. BEASLY OF BOSTON THAT'S ALL. Mr. J.

They were unworthy to be called men. They lacked the moral courage to dare to ask them from their reception, these scurfs of the world. Because she had attended the school would not even justify the act. Why should those who came to spend an enjoyable evening be forced to sit through this disgusting scene, or leave, as many did? All day Friday the Chicago Defender received calls over the 'phone, asking us to please make mention that this wench had dared to flaunt her low southern brute before the faces of decent mothers and sisters and not one word of protest was raised by the educated(?) graduates of Fiske. The school is simply disgraced. Southern visitors expressed surprise that no effort was made to ask them to absent themselves. We are mortified that such would ever occur in this city. The Mann act, of course, has no effect on the southern white man and his black wench. In the South he parades when and where he chooses, and no one cares, for she is of black blood and he is white. Now we have a new phase to fight. A black woman who will parade her white lover before our very eyes voluntarily and seek to flaunt her vice in our society without a protest from the weakkneed "Chollies" with their diplomas is beyond all we have ever heard of or seen. She was one example. There are lots more here in Chicago. Our attention is daily drawn to mulatto girls who care only for certain jobs because they have white blood, and are forced to sell their bodies to hold a job. They (Continued on Page 5.)

Memphis, Tenn., Sept. 10.—Saturday morning, August 28, Patrolman Ramsey and his partner, Christup, both white, saw three women of the race talking and walking along the street about 1 o'clock in the morning. Ramsey called for them to halt, but the women, conversing, evidently did not hear, and, being in a hurry, continued to move on, when all at once the vicious southern brute whipped out his pistol and shot Fannie Sheppard, who lives at 1244 Hamstreet. The bullet cut an artery and the woman began to bleed terribly. She was left to die, unaided. Ramsey then telephoned to his captain that a woman was bleeding to death. The new patrol wagon is a five-passenger Ford, with handcuffs attached to the seats. There was plenty of room. Captain Crouch sent Officers O'Brien and Davies with the machine with orders to take the woman to the hospital. In a few, minutes the emergency auto reached the scene, but instead of following the instructions of their superior officer, when they saw she was colored they took her name and address and drove off. The woman managed to get her hands to the wound so as to stop the flow of blood. Finally her weak hands could grip no longer. Begging to be taken to the hospital was in vain. Her hands became powerless, they drained limply by her side and the wound was open. The rest of her life's blood quickly ebbed out. ```markdown ``` O'Brien later called up Captain Crouch and said the woman was still in the alley and that they refused to put her in the auto for fear it might get all bloodied up. Captain Crouch ordered the ambulance to the scene, but in the meantime an hour had elapsed and the poor woman was dead. Case for Commissioner Utley. The present administration has been very strict regarding the conduct of policemen, especially in too free use of the pistol, and has dismissed several who shot race men. Commissioner Utley is making an investigation and may act in the case at our. The officer claimed he thought that there was little or no excuse to the wanton shooting. Mrs. Kupper, 1061 South Wellington street, was a witness to the shooting. An inquest was held by N. T. Ingram. The verdict of the jury was that the woman came to her death by a pistol shot in the hands of Patrolman Ramsey. It ended with these words: "We exonerate the officer."

This flag was the emblem of manhood, virtue and patriotism. Its beautiful design, are in anticipation of love, truth and justice, and rightful truth, right skies of heaven today its matches with the sky of tomorrow. I think of the triumphs of this flag without the deeper feeling of gratitude which makes it a monkish, its inspirations and the lowest ideals of human thought—Liberty, Freedom and Progress. With this flag freedom to us was born; with it freedom to mankind its holds Justice shall rule and triumph. No living human power can conceive the destiny of this wonderful spirit, freedom to mankind, concrete form and made into a government, the United States of America, of which the flag of the Union typifies and No flag has ever offered human progress and happiness more. No flag as a symbol of achievement. No flag as a symbol of inspire mankind. No flag today abounds amid greater wealth and splendid opportunities to emulate future leaders reecting the destiny of old civilization upward and onward towards a higher goal—greater race of men and women, greater economic growth, greater egalitarianism, norisms of persons, races, or nationalities. Its doctrine is that of elevation and promotion. Its effort is the masses through the spirit of co-operation combining their efforts for the greatest good of mankind. Its efforts of a government upon such a foundation is the ultimate goal of social progress. The deeper meaning of this flag we may glean from the doctrine of its founders, therefore, we quote the following: "When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth the separate and equal station to which the laws of Nature's God entitled them, a decent respect to the opinion of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impell them to the separation." "We hold these truths to be so certain that all men are created equal, that they are good at making them equal with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and pursuit of happiness." "That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed." "That where any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to affect their safety and happiness." "We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more domestic union, estates, and property, to be the domestic defense, would, for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

FACTS ABOUT BIRTH OF A NATION PLAY AT THE COLONIAL One Who Has Seen and Knows About the Early Days the Author Tries to Falsely Depict Tells It as It Was. (By Mrs. K. J. Bills.) I went to see the "Birth of a Nation"—not because I wanted to see it, but to be able to criticize intelligently. It is impossible to know what a play is unless one is an eye witness. I had heard so much said for and against the play I was determined to first part to which any reason was to be found. It deals with historical facts which hold a person almost spellbound. The second part—well, it is such an exaggeration that to a person who really knew and lived during that period it is not at all interesting. It is false from beginning to end. It is meant to create a greater race prejudice than already exists between the races. I shall mention some of the false impressions: Was there ever a congress composed entirely of Negroes who passed laws to govern all the whites in the South? Was there ever a time when the southern white people were at all as submissive to the blacks as this picture would have people believe? Does anyone believe that after the war the Negroes had no other ambition than to marry white women? Someone has said we as a race have enough hardships heaped upon us without creating a picture which actually lies. I wonder if Mr. Griffin lived during those days, and does he really remember things as they were. The outrages of the Ku Klux were nothing like the picture shows them to be. There was no noise, no fast horseback riding, no clash between them and the Negroes. It is true they went around on horseback, but very quietly, like the men who had known or heard any horses' feet. I remember well when a small child the Ku Klux came to my father's cabin. They knocked quietly, called him by name and made him open the door. Though they were masked, he knew their voices, for they were some of the gentlemen of his master's family. They had a great deal of knowledge about the subject. They left as quietly as they came. They went to every other Negro cabin and did the same thing. There was no resistance, no fighting. The part showing the black man chasing the little girl, compelling her to jump off a high place and kill herself, is meant only to stir up hatred. Nothing like this can be done. The Negro has never been so brutal. Why was not some of this brutality shown while their masters were at war? It was then the Negroes had full charge of their masters' families. They protected them as no other person would have done. The black man, and why this was not cut out by the censors. They claim to be so very particular. No other race but this black American race would stand for the exhibition of pictures which are meant to poison the mind as this picture is. The Irish, German, Jewish, Polish, Swedish or any other race would have wrecked the General theater long ago. No edge or censor bureau would have permitted it if it were showing any other race than the Negro. THE WORLD'S GREATEST ORATOR TO SPEAK Dr. C. T. Walker is to preach at Quinn Chapel Sunday morning.

Dr. Booker T. Washington, principal of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., was honored evening at the First Regiment Armory, 16th street and Wabash avenue, where the National Baptist convention is in session. For years Mr. Washington, who is a Baptist by faith, has always attended the conference and delivered an address. Among others, he thought emphasized were as follows: "We have not the figures covering all the Negro's wealth, but the Federal Census Bureau has just released a document which gives the value of the Negro's farm property alone as $1,142,000,000. From 1900 to 1910, the Negro's farm property increased 123 per cent. In 1863 we had as a race 2,000 small business enterprises of one kind and another. At the present time the Negro owns and operates about 43,000 concerns, with an annual turnover of about one billion dollars. Within fifty years we have made enough progress in business to warrant the operation of over 50 banks. With all that I have said, we are still a poor race as compared with many others; but I have given these figures to indicate the direction in which we are traveling. During the last six years we have experienced as a race not a few business failures, including the closing of several banks. We must not let these failures discourage us. We must remember that it is with a race, as it is with an individual, that it is only through seeing failure, as well as success, that we finally gain that experience and confidence which are necessary to permanent success. With all that I have said, we should remember that we have but scratched the surface of industrial and business success. "Our future is before us, not behind us. We are a new race in a comparatively new world. We are in a position to be inclined toward pessimism or discord consider with me for a few moments the opportunities that we may value. I am also advantages rather than the disadvantages. In considering one's opportunity to the also of our race." One Million Live North. Over 4,000 business enterprises in the northern and western states. In these states at the present time, our people operate about 4,000 business enterprises in north and west and are opportunities in the southern states, or double the present number of enterprises, or double the present number of great bulk of people live where about 40,000 business concerns. There should be within the next few years the foundation for great growth and feeding our people. I have already indicated that we operate about $800,000 farms. Within the next few years we will now own 40,000 number. To indicate a little more the direction in which we should seek opportunities; their own 4,000 truck number to increase this number to 8,000. Gives Race Statistics. As of the time the line for too many of our people living in the cities is a hand-to-mouth way, dependent on someone else for an uncertain job. Aside from what the soil offers, there are other opportunities in business. For example, no non-woven and operato bakerers. When the number of the becceds in 1960. From 32 brief smokers the number can be increased to 3,000. From 200 sawmills we can increase the number to 1,000. From 50 furniture factories, the bakerers are more than 100. When the number of the becceds in 1960 are now 9,000 dry goods stores and grocery merchants, we should have in the near future 15,000. "Where we now have 700 drug stores, we should have 3,000. Where we now have 500 real estate stores, where we now have 1,000 military stores, we should have 5,000. Where we now have 150 plumbers, we should have 600. Where we have 400. Where we now have 500 architects, we should have 400. We now have 3,000 contractors and builders, we should have 5,000. Where we now have 51 banks, we should have 500. "For people are aware of the fact that we now have in our race after only 50 years of freedom, 55 book stores, 18 department stores, 14 five and ten-cent stores, and 10 stores of 70 high density plants, 13 warehouses and cold stamps, 300 lundries, 350 livery stables, 250 undertakers, 400 photographers, 10� oil�clans. For good manufacturers, 110 old rag dealers, 12 buyers and shippers of live stock. "With our race as it has been and always been, we have economic and business foundations, hardly possible to have educational and religious freedom." *Lessons from Hayt* "We can learn some mighty serious lessons from Hayt, in Liberia and Hayt, for years both in Liberia and Hayt, literary education and while doing this, the people have failed to apply themselves to the development of the country, the suit is that: from an economic point of view, those two republics have become economies in the lands of other nations, in both republics the control finances is in the hands of other nations, in the fact that the two countries have NEW SANITARIUM READY FOR USE IN CRESCENT CITY Playground Is Dedicated for Children—Inspiring Addresses by Mayor M.

When he was in Europe, where all the people are of one color and then compare these converse with similar-looking ones, task for our race, we ought to thank our Creator that conditions are so well formed, we live beneath the Stars and Stripes. When he concluded his address Dr. E. C. Morris, President of the National Baptist convention, and hundred of similar form rushed to Mr. Washington and grasped his hand, congratulating him upon the remarkable address, the able message brought to the convention.

THE HIGH-BROWN We have opened "The High-Brown" display room No. 5, at 3519 State Street, for the purpose of showing you the ORIGINAL HIGH-BROWN FACE POWDER as there are many imitations on the market sold under such names as "Brown Face Powder," "Brown Skin," and similar names. HIGH-BROWN FACE POWDER was originated by us—we have the name copyrighted in the United States Patent Office, and it is the first and only face powder ever made especially for colored people. Only first class articles are imitated—the very fact that so many imitate our articles is proof in itself that ours is of a superior quality. When you buy a face powder for a "High-Brown" that has not the name Overton-Hygienic on it, you have been imposed upon; for you have bought an imitation, which is inferior to our original "High-Brown." See that our name is on every box you buy. Also Manufacturers of Ro-Zol Face Bleach, Aida Overton Walker Hair Pomade and Other Toilet Articles. GEORGE F.

Many have been seen automobile riding after sundown. Then they try to travel in the best circles unmolested. Many places a girl cannot work unless of nearly white complexion, and then she is subjected to the wishes and passions of those men who have charge of her. These statements may seem absurd, but those who are familiar with these things know and can read between the lines and look. Two or three places girls have been forced to leave rather than participate in the orgies after hours, or to ruin the names of their mothers by allowing themselves to submit to the vicious passions of the would-be white lovers. How a woman who is supposed to be in a position as teacher in one of the schools of the city can ride in a "Jim Crow" car and sit up all night so she can join her white lover in Chicago, who has traveled in a Pullman sleeper, we can't see. If Fiske can't give better account of itself we feel sorry for the school. Why our young girls here in Chicago will sell their virtue for gold simply to gain clothes we fail to see, but it is done. What are we coming to? Recently at a popular dance a certain young girl was ignored by a set of young, manly fellows who are well known in this city. Her reputation for loving white men came and was known before she arrived. She was made to feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable, and the clock she was seen going down Michigan boulevard in an auto, close to one of her white men.

WELL, NOW, WHAT IS THE USE If You Feel That Way About Anything, It Certainly Is "No Use"—to You. Sometimes people ask: "What's the use of dressing children so nicely?" "What's the use of spending time on a flower garden? What's the use of poetry? Why not say it in plain English? We answer: What's the use of the dimple on the baby's cheek, or the sheen on the pigeon's neck, or the flash of the bluebird's wing, or the fragrance of the rose? Singularly it would be argued many as an unpraticual and unimportant member of society—a drone in the hive of industry. Many people believe that it would be better to put a pick and shovel into his hands and set him at some "useful task." But, happily, life is not constituted solely on the pick-and-shovel principle. The earth is not flat, and the sky is not a metallic vault. On the other hand, this little globe of ours is on the most comfortable bathing itself in the very elements of life it flies, and surrounded by the unalterable poetry of the infinite expanse which spreads through every star and every child, every grass blade, and every smallest grain of dust in our garden path—Gems.

The Kansas story of how the farmers put Beer kegs instead of wheels on their binders, in order to harvest in wet weather, recalls to the Lawrence Gazette the old story that was often told in the days when prohibition was young in Kansas. There was a law that permitted the sale of liquor for medical, mechanical and scientific purposes. A farmer came in one day and offered to purchase a gallon of stuff from the local druggist. Out came the druggist's wife, who was in need of a pose for which the liquor was to be used must be recorded. "What are you going to use it for—medical mechanical or scientific purposes?" asked the drug clerk. "You might as well put it down as mechanical," responded the farmer. "I'm goin' to have a barn raisin'."—Kansas City Journal. By FRANK A.

The gaucho, or cowboy of the plains of the basin of Rio de la Plata, has been celebrated in song and story quite as much as has his prototype in North America, to which he closely corresponds. The gaucho is not always, however, a cowboy; he is occasionally a rover and his intimate knowledge of frontier life has been of great value in the gradual development of Argentina's vast Patagonian wilderness.

It may be at the cost of great sacrifice to parents to keep their children in school but it is a duty that pays large dividends in the end. GRAND ARMY POSTS in a number of western cities are objecting seriously to the presentation of the Griffith film misnamed "The Birth of a Nation."

L—Editor Chicago Defender; I note through the columns of your publication last week that one "reverend gentleman," supposedly from the state, who asked that he was driven from Louisiana because of his utterances against immorality and libels the women of our race by stating any Negro woman who school in the South or Louisiana must of necessity have a white patron. I desire, in the South, travels continually through the South and who knows the South, to state the assertion is absolutely true. If the Newy woman witnesses it was ashamed to sign his name to his article, dealt as caroless with the truth in Louisiana as he does in Chicago I do want to tell you that I will leave, and I predict that it is only a question of time before he will hastily leave Chicago who engages in the teaching profession as are high-minded, noble and honorable as the women of any race or section anywhere in the country.

Georgia and the conviction of Leo Frank at the hands of a jury of its citizens, who were prior to his being murdered by a mob. Seldom in the history of the nation has the execution mob of law be received by such publicity, and the nation for a fourth time since its foundation is aroused by the termination of its foundation at the terrible culmination of lynch law. Public sentiment, heretofore peaceful and serene while the minions of lynch law are maliciously and unlawfully killed and burned American citizens at will, now this crime, contemplates some method for its eradication. The nation are hundred million people of the nation are in revolt the tide of lawlessness shall sweep from them their only arm of protection, their only defense against the law. The murder—the courts of law. Public spirit is aroused—aroused and alive to the burning faintness of the law. Fade with the coming of time nor become less because of influences which are open order. The issue of law and order cannot die, because upon its foundation the world is interrupted in all its dependence. The world affects its security and happiness. It is necessary in discussing this question, to seek its cause, to affect our well-being, to seek its cause. Lynch law is the outgrowth of American slavery. It was germinated in the hotbed of social injustice. It thrives upon the diseases of lawlessness. The number of Afro-Americans lynched during the period of American slavery must forever remain the foot of question of its own history. Sufficient to say that the value of a slave often precluded a summary death at the hands of his enemies. The basis of slavery is easy to conceive—oppression, hardships and degradation. Slavery is a scourge to civilization and a reverse power used against the wheels of progress from ...e date of its adoption by the many states which have felt its terrible burdens. It is aவிplocopition of social growth. It was a power of the ruling classes from the beginning of organized government until more enlightened laws have attempted its suppression. Slavery was a disease of the social body, and as it grew and developed it created artificial standards; a crowned lie with the sacredness of truth. It prostituted justice until it very name became the insignia of hatred to the masses the world over. Anarchy in Europe is easily followed by historical research to be the result of a abuse of economic law. Lynch law in America follows closely the heels of American slavery and economic depression. The nature of society is organic. We are an organic body, and our relationship is social. We are an organism just as we do it. We are organ of the human body. It is self, although of special conditions, it would be no value; but attached to the body it is of special use. This fact is true of the individual member of society, or groups of or races a part of the human family. The social structure of the human family is found upon the right to deprive certain members of the social body of that which is created by it and rightfully belongs to it. Slavery in the basis of the city form of the first solution in later forms of unjust legislation, discrimination, "Jim Crow" legislation, murder and lynch law. The theory of slavery developed in Brown under the influence of the Christian church in the 19th century with the absence of religious propaganda. Since the abolition of slavery the effort to nullify the scope and power of the fourteen and fifteen amendments to the constitution of the state, the content of the southern whites and this movement has taken first one form and then another. We will say that in the South lynching was first instituted. The American of course, was the first victim to suffice to the power of the state. When he was released from bondage he was given the ballet in order that he might maintain his freedom. It was the safeguard which had protected the white life of therefore was deemed a weapon of self-defense in the hands of the Afro-American. The political upheaval, the evolution, the shifting of the balance through the law of social progress, the fall of the political corruption, the evolution of political equality placed master and slave side by side in manhood rights, citizen DEFENDER'S LEGAL HELPS To Our Readers: Our attention has been called to the action of certain police officials who are taking the liberty of riding decents and dishonest people.

There are some judge who will inevitably fine most every person of color brought before them, and the other of the law of practice and the case are the most general persons all charged with the same offense and the same evidence introduced in each case, the judge discharged the law of the police. There are many other of the prisoners of color. Of course the fine was small but the principle of dishonest and finding the other of the law of practice is because the other was more against.

Nella Made by Hand It seems hardly credible that it was almost to the close of the eighteenth century that most nails were made by hand. Other countries were very slow to follow the lead of England in getting out nails in large quantities. In France for nearly a century light nails for carpenter work were made from wire, but until 1850 they were made by hand with a hammer. ship and legal protection. There was no reason to throwwheel the new order of political practice into the treatment which had accepted the Afro-American as a part of our body politic. The Afro-American which murdered against the Afro-American which started the world. The fouldeed in court was that the defendant—that of rage. For that accusation he was banched without trial; murdered in jail and upon the public highway. His violence against the public highway stolen. He was made the ignominy of through the illintentionalness of the utterance of caricaturists of crime have never ceased to paint a defenseless race as beasts using the lowest order of animal creation. With public sentiment educated to the heart this vile slander through the efforts of the Republican party in its columns of this reprehensible charge "Rape," "Lynched," until the political "Rape," "Lynched," until the political northern states was repealed. In other states his ballot was destroyed, leaving him a then without a country. Thus it was. The Republican party in the United States affirmed "Jim Crow" laws which fostered an unpatriotic, unmanly and unjustified violence. Therefore we find lynch law the unreasonable infuence. Afro-Americans are lynched in the South. Afro-Americans are preemacy in the South. They must keep the world believing him a beast, that they must plunder him of the fruits of his labor. They must keep back so that the white man may be plundered him and be free from punishment. Disease and immorality have no color line. Leo Frank was lynched. Lincoln, Garfield and McKinley, our greatest president, for the world honored them, were assassinated. What say you, the nation withers under the lash of lawless power? Think your part as an accomplice to mob in the world? We guilty as a nation of treason against them and law? Lynch law has already instilled into the masses the spirit of lawlessness. The means is assembly of men may have its significant influence or the common hurrying crowd upon the thoroughfare of our congested cities or the raining in the country village at the faintest echo of law-breaking, the frec of lynch law are kindled. Mob spirit seizes the reigns of law. Hurriedly, impulsive, quick, mad, infuriated, charging like a raging sea, contemptuous, it carries him for law nor government. It re-spects to boundary line which we have. It assembles with the throng wherever they assemble. It pushes its victim merically and cruelly. It is the ghost of lynch law whose horrifying shadows see appearing higher and higher upon the political skies of democracy. It bears the hideous main, an expression of murder, foul, black, repulsive. As long as nature has a balance sheet sheet, you pay the cost by the selling price. Will you pay the cost by the cost of endangering our own free institutions? Lyrch law, besides the horribly inhumane nature of our own institution, the school of crime, where the human spirit of man, the higher intellect, that which is natural to him, is crushed, and the man is nature of nature are developed. Then like a brute he neither argues nor reasons, but, acting as a creature, he uses the nature for intellect and reason, but he shrewd, suspicious, egotistic, fearful, revengeful, defensive design, a brute who is not a victim of violence as a result of arbitration. Thus strong men become weak and wear men become weaker by the nature of their actions. We mention the name of Leo Frank and the man behind this terrible triangle for an answer. In ten years we have murdered by Lynch law 3,495 American citizens, and specially do we read an issue of our daily papers unless we are told of this terrible crime. Before the nation as never before comes the question of law and order. Are we afraid of justice, that inspiration which could be the leaders as no other thought could impact the sublime thought which lends and arows the forces into sturdy action; which causes the quential with our Washington, Lincoln and Grant? You who declare the sacredness of human liberty is profound, yet for the dark-skim race you circumvent your freedom in order to compromise his. It being true that race prejudice, "Jim Grinnell" and slavery are at the bottom of lynch has not time that a civilization as brilliant is the United States of America should once and for all time drive it from our midst? In every problem of political economy which we must solve we invariably find the oppressive spirit of American slavery. We head the list for homeides. We have a disease for man-killing.

As a common definition we may define hay fever or hay asthma to be a conjunctivitis with a nasal catarrh, occurring annually during the months of June, July, August and September. We can tell hay fever by the swollen, red, watery eyes. It is further characterized by sneezing, coughing and a watery discharge from the nose with difficult breathing. The individual who has hay coryza or hay fever suffers with a general malise, or a general discomforting feeling. The sense of smell is much interfered with and vitiated. Causes and Origin of Hay Fever. Hay fever is an origin of hay fever or hay anthrax. In the 14th century, about 1565, hay fever thought to be due to oolumor emanating from the skin, often called rose catarrh. About the same time, an author is equally claimed that the emanations from the cause of hay fever, Dr. Bostock, who suffers an affection, contended that the cause of hay fever was sunburn, dust and fatigue. Very little was known in England and this country until the 18th century, when hay fever prior to 1838, for we know that George IV, King of England, was a long time resident of England. Dr. Watson, 1857, described hay fever to due to certain vegetable matter in the nasal passages, claimed the exciting cause of hay fever was due to hot, bright, fuzzy sunburn. Hay fever is caused by an external and an internal irritant—by micro-organism—active in the nasal passages of a pre-deposed, susceptible individual. Usually hay fever is caused by irritability, or some abnormality of the nasal passages. We also know that there is a pre-deposed, susceptible individual, and we recognize a peculiar disturbance, in hay fever, called idiosyncrasy. An an evidence of the mixed causes, we know that hay fever has various causes, including cold, June and July cold, peach cold, pollen catarrh, rary weed fever, rose catarrh, cornellitis, summer catarrh and summer fever. We all agree that hay fever is an afferent condition, occurring near a fixed date annually. In the spring, summer or autumn; we know that certain atmospheric conditions, as after a good heavy frost, its termination Compiled by W. N.

NO CASES ARE DIAGNOSED AND NO PRESCRIPTIONS GIVEN IN THESE WEEKLY ARTICLES membrane of the nose and the near by cavities are swollen, that there is an irritating, watery discharge which often interferes with one's breathing, talking, eating, reading and keeping. Warding Off Hay Fever. To want of this annoying plague, hay fever, diminish your pro-reposition by keeping your bowels, digestive, and kidneys in good normal condition. Raise the vital resistance of the general system, keep nose and general air passages in a sanitary condition. Micro-organism and toxins will not remain long, and cannot generate the two in a normal system. Avoid getting pollen or dust from various weeds on mucous membrane of your air passages. One man relates having gotten hay fever in trying to beat down the weeds in early fall, while looking for a health that he lost playing baseball. He claims that the dust, moisture and heat from said weeds gave him a high fever of which he has suffered for seventeen years. Therefore keep weeds cut and cleared away. The elements of heredity are inflammatory causes of hay asthma are only amenable to palliative treatment. The peculiar neuropathic temperament, and the chronic inflammation, can all be greatly reduced by avoiding any deranged conditions of food assimilation and elimination—by avoiding inflammation or injury to the nose or air passages. It is claimed that an unnatural distribution of water, the body, or air passages, excite a patient's watery discharge from the nose, and eyes, and the expectorating of mucous from the throat. It is also claimed that he cured himself by going about the room with all windows and doors open, with the room being outlight than or covering of any kind, and it resulted in a complete cure of his ailment. Would advise the patient to fail in instituting the mute treatment, but here may be some virtue in it.
