SOUTHERN SHERIFF
KILLS LEE MOORE
Brother-In-law of Murdered Man Gets Out Warrant Charging Knoxville, Tenn., Sheriff with First Degree Murder and Man Killing Moore. Both Men Leave Families. The Latter a Child. Knoxville, Tenn., Nov. 5. — Los Moore's body was found in front of a house on Willem Street, 20, with a woman on his head. His brother-in-law appeared in court and procured a warrant for John Blankenship charging him with a degree murder, also presenting an affidavit that killed Moore. The man killed Moore and robbed the dead man's wife and young child of their only son. Lee Moore was thirty-three years old and was employed in a downtown town hall. He was considered as a quiet and industrious fellow. He was on his way home from work.
The Inquest over the remains was held at the undertaking establishment of C. S. Jarnigan & Son, on Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock by Coroner Johnson. The first two witnesses called before the coroner's jury were Undertaker Jarnigan and his son who testified that there were no other marks on the body of Moore's body. In his head, Harry Roxston, proprietor of the Rotonte, was wrought Jarnifactory, was called next. Mr. Loyston testified that he was in his place of business at the hour that Moore was found and stated that he heard one pistol shot shortly before he learned of the body. Learigan, who operates a pool room at the corner of Willow and Patton, just a half mile from the foot of the pool, was not stated that he and a few other men were looking the place preparing to leave for their homes when Sheriff Blankenship and a deputy drove up and Lyons stated that the sheriff called to a man by the name of Lee Jefferson to stop and when the man ran, "I saw Sheriff Blankenship draw his pistol and fire in the direction of the fleeing man and it was in this case that the sheriff called to the警长 and his deputy then turned and went in the opposite direction from which he fired and when he passed him, Lyons, he stated to him, "You ought to be careful how you are shooting that pistol around here," to which the sheriff stated, "We'll get out of the way." Jerry Chambers was in company with Lyons at the next侧的Jarnigan, and the警长 called to the警长 there were closing the pool room. His statements were correlative of those of Lyons. Oscar Reed testified as to the finding of the body within a short time after the shooting.

Dear Sir:
It is with praise to God that you are
the president of the United States,
and trust God will spare you to finish
the great work that you are ultimately to
be the means of performing. Of creating a
world peace, to the new laws of God as
received by Baha'u'l-Lahm (Glorious to
God) and being interpreted by the center of the
country, to be the place from which peace
is to start. In your administration of
affairs so far, the hand of God can
be used to relieve your repugnance
pressure that has been brought to bars
on you, you have kept this country out of
the general world strife. For which much
in your (through the state department)
suing before the older powers of Europe
and Asia for your peace, must be
moved (the best way) so scientifically
so before the powers of the
world with that object in view, that this
country must at peace with her own
wealth, and that the world will be
100,000,000,000,000, of which about 12,000,
000 are colored. Why should every man's
country be colored the same color? They
were created from one another and
I; have to live and obey the same
saws; have to pay taxes, and would be
harmed in every way, as a class have
shown more improvement than any other.
In them all the rights of
citizenship to which they are entitled
under the constitution.
When that is done you can go before
the world with a united people at your
back and enjoy peace.
Yours for unity.

Secretary of Treasury Advises There Are No Funds in Treasury Belonging to Ex-slaves, Although a Suit to That Effect Has Been Entered.
A WASTE OF GOOD MONEY.
The Supposed Helra Who Contribute the $1.75 per Capita Are Only Throwing That Much Away If There Was a Claim for Hire at This Late Date To Be Against the Employers—Suit to Be Dismissed.
(Special to Chicago Defender.)
Washington, D. C., Nov. 5.—Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo has earned the overstating gratitude of the colored peo-
Last week he released an official state statement that effect that there is no fund of $640,000 to support the treasury of the United States for exslaves or their heirs or for any other perpetrators of slavery in the South, Secretary McAdoo thus sounds a timely note of warning that payments made by individuals to defray costs and expenses to recover any part of any such fictitious payments tend to shut off the financial supply of promoters of the action against the government. He said that the government colored papers and have sent circular broadcasts over the land calling for con- actions, $1.50 each from those who have no money and have an interest in pressing the claim.
The records show that suit was brought last July in the supreme court of the District of Columbia in the names of four persons—H. N. Johnson of Louisiana, R. Bowers of Texas, C. D. Williams of Mississippi and Alain Thompson of Tennessee. These records were not available to the parties, have similar interests as plaintiffs, in which the secretary of the treasury of the United States of America is made defendant, the purpose of the suit being to have the sum of $30,000,000 prorated and paid to claimants and all ex-slaves who were not to produce certain cotton, or to their help, to produce certain cotton, was produced by slave labor between the years of 1859 and 1863, or the period between 1862 and 1863, and the $68,000,000 represents the internal revenue tax on the raw cotton under the law and is now held in the treasury among the general funds of the treasury. The treasury of the treasury department that there is no legal or just basis for the suit fled in the supreme court, and that it or any other suit brought for the same purpose will prove unfounded and fruitless. The treasury holds that the tax was collected lawfully and is not a right to be collected, and no one who is familiar with the law on the subject and the decisions of the courts thereon would think of bringing suit for the recovery thereof. Even if those who were slaves were entitled to compensation for their work their claim would be again to their former masters, and they would have a right to bring the same a辩案 into date against such masters, or for the proceeds of the cotton produced by their labor. A contention that they could now collect anything for such service would be fraudulent and absurd. Secretary of the court explains this point at length in the statement of the court's位置 of the suit are liable to mislead promoteurs unacquainted with the facts.

Judge Hewlett Deserts Jones
When the suit was filed by Lawyer Jones in July 1960 had associated with him forms of the Disclination of the Disclination member of the Disclination bar. Judge Hewlett in view of all the facts has now made a findavit that his confidence has been abused and that he now sees his merits in the suit; and, further, that in view of the statements made in the printed circulars put into circulation in the South, advising the people to give money to conduct the suit, etc., he has withdrawn from the case. Judge Hewlett is a man of the highest standing and his action is taken as an indication that an honest man cannot afford to be identified with the proceedings as conducted by the promoter-in-chief.
The treasury warning concludes with the declaration that as the pending suit is against the secretary of the treasury it is a familiar law that a suit of this nature is a suit against the government itself, and the court in which the action is brought is apt to hold that it has no jurisdiction to entertain such a case. It is, therefore, more than probable that the case will be dismissed by the court on a preliminary motion.
Publicity Should Be Given.
The papers of the country should give Secretary McAdoon's plain and timely warning the widest and fullest publicity. He speaks for the best interests of all the colored people of the land, and especially for those of the South.

"BIRTH OF A NATION" BOILED DOWN
Objectionable Parts That Might Have Caused a Riot or. Cast Reflections on the Race Were Eliminated from the Photo Lie.
(Special to Chicago Defender.)
St. Paul, Minn., Nov. 5.—“The Birth of a Nation” continues at the Auditorium, but with the elimination of the most offensive scenes. This concession was obtained through the efforts of representatives of the众议院, who took the matter before the city council. After many able addresses from representatives both of St. Paul and Minneapolis the council decided that the management cut out certain scenes or the license would be revoked. They agreed to the cut. One misguided Nozzle himself to be the matter before the film company spoke in favor of the picture showing in its entirety as a benefiend to the race. This Judas, we are pleased to say, does not belong to St. Paul; and had it not been for police officers who rescued him from the irate colored citizens he would at this time be a most fitting representative for “The End of a Nation” when the interest of the race was. Mrs. T. H. Lyles of St. Anthony avenue, as well as many other ladies, attended the hearing of the council in regard to the suppression of the objectionable films. Mayor Powers personally asked Mrs. Lyles for an expression of her views on the subject, and, being fully equipped for such work through her years of training on the lecture platform, she published an address to the public, which he depended upon to be found along the firing line when the interest of the race is not stake.

B. B. Langford of “Advancement Party” Demands Equality and Impartiality.
Cincinnati, Ohio, Nov. 5.—A race man, B. B. Langford of the Advancement Party, is contesting for the office of Mayor of Cincinnati against three white candidates of other parties. It is the first time one of the race has ever been regularly nominated for the office of Chief Executive of the city. The present campaign, probably the most horly contested in the city's history, has developed many surprises.
The ticket is the result of a desire, freely expressed for the past ten years by prominent race organizations and politicians of Ohio, for actual equality and impartiality toward the blacks in all city employments, and especially at mess and in the fire and police dormitories.
The new ticket means a decided change in the vote of the dominant party, the Republican, led so often to success by George B. Cox, New York theatrical magnate, now in alleged voluntary retirement. The race is voting solid for him.

DULUTH EDITOR
SHOWS BROAD MIND
"Birth of a Nation" a Mismenone —It's a "Lie" All the Way Through—Unwholesome, Degrading and Neurotic Is Finitely Applied to Film Story.
We are pleased to the editorial from the Duluth, Minn., daily Sunday paper in which it is shown that we are still in the process of building men that are not swayed by prejudice. The editorial follows:
"The Birth of a Nation" is a misnomer; in it, authors and substance a lie. It is a photo play that never should be permitted in Duluth nor any authorityorship alone is enough to condemn the stage, the stagel, the Irish, Germans, Swedes, British, Japanese, Jews, farmers and what not. They are used to add to the hilarity of comedy, public outbursts and quite frequent encounters. The story based on their friends of the audience and their audiences are friends of theirs. There is a black race, but to depict it as a construction day, it is a story based on reconstruction days, at time that every true American should do his utmost to forget; to avoid recollection of the Negro, an African can afford to throw stones, at least in public places. The vortices of this story could equally deplorable results. The Ku Klux is gone; it was an emergency organization of which the best and the worst has been

They are a peaceful, happy people, who have the same feelings as the white people. Their crime is not a malicious, not of a race, and we have no right to indict the race. As monstrous crimes the Thomas Dixon has invaded white race as Thomas Dixon has invaded white race and so to hold up against the black men the whole color of this film story is unwilling to admit the immutableless of its immutable subject. It is exactly the sort that should be censored to death. The whole color of this film story, it does not contain what should kept alive in the hearts and minds of a people. It is not healing, educative, amusing, and can gratify only the moral indulition, or that sentiment which seeks the running scores on others as mental punishment. It does not contain worse in itself than some one thing or scene in other films. It is the whole purpose of a movie to arouse prejudice, where there should be kindness and helpfulness; to recreate what is dead and never should have lived, to create kindness and helpfulness in a most hideously cruel fashion.

Evansville, Ind., Nov. 5—Miss Hibble C. Pettford, a noted dramatic reader, who is here arranging for a mammal concert during the holiday season, was seriously injured by a dog. The temp to save the lives of two small boys who were playing with a can of gasoline was beyond her, while another was beyond her. Seeing two children in a mass of fires, she despaired to their rescue. The children were depicted in a movie covered them, ran in a mud frenzy becoming carnage of fire. Like a true heroine unconscious of self she summoned the children, who ran in a mud frenzy becoming carnage of fire. Bravery on her part resulted in one of these children being saved from a horrific reach, succeeded in the trager of fate. Noble woman—to my heydey we name the title of her heroine.

CAJOLING ADVOCATED FOR THE RACE
Southern Whites more interested in the Weaker Race. That They Are Wishing to teach to Bear from the Southern states would teach to Bear with their Neighbor and Elevate Him.
Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 5. If the northern states had all been sunk in the sea on our civic land, the southern states would feed the sea later. A prerequisite to the settlement of the race problem is that we shall treat it more people than we are willing to admit to the land of the big hog by southern legislation. I believe that we are at bottom more interested in these people than we are willing to admit to the land of the big hog by our best people will speak out. I hope to see the day when our teachers will preach to the Negro, by telling them toward the Negro, by telling them all about the African home, the conditions he faces to live in, the development there, the opportunity which his development in our midst gives us to raise him, the obligation of every person of the higher race to learn to bear from the big hog. I believe that such talks will have real effect on the lives of these children and help them to deal with their own problems. Let their maxim be: "Noblesse oblige," is not this the way to fit our race to the maintenance of white ascendancy?
We sincerely wish to improve the Negro in his good and for our own—but we do not want to be so blinded as to be as essential to his improvement as it is essential to our improvement, and of pointing the upward path.

Fifty Years of Progress to be Fittingly Observed at Leland, Mississippi.
(Special to Chicago Defender.)
Leland, Miss., Nov. 5.—The fiftieth anniversary of the St. James African Methodist Church will mark a degree of progress worthy of thought and consideration. Creditable effort is being made by Rev. C. B. Sawyer, the present minister, with officers and members cooperating, to perform a tribute to the occasion. The church was early as 1865, when John Rucks, Lacey Jones (allas Mammy Lucy) and Jake Cartright would assemble the people in the old slave house, a place where all race children were nursed and kept alive while their mothers were working upon the plantation. From that humble beginning a magnificent church has been erected and more than $5,000 with suitable and appropriate parsonage and surroundings, with a membership of more than 200 contented Christian people. The influence of this church is potential in shaping the course of the people for advancement, moral, economic and Christian: the result of which upon the plantation where once the slave bowed his head in disgrace, we have a thriving and progressive city and have acquired property and business worth many thousand dollars.

He patient, friends—don't laugh—have pity; but now that we are at the business, up to our elbows in the swirling muck—let us a sad, unpleasing duty—be sweeping in our vision, full sided in our morningal and reflections; but mark you, NOT that the opinions, pro or con, are the same as the opinions for or against a great body of our people in this city, as printed by this journalistic excuse in green ink, is worth a tinker's dam; for it is not, but for the same reason that we are moved to smear-suitably bedbug, another flea, or rid our face of a disgusting pimple. According to the slanted eye view of this occurance of local journalism, not yet dry air, is the same as it is an airful face if true we agree with it "CHICAGO'S NEW SHAME" that a "NEW UNDERWORLD" has arisen, amidst environments the color of which "IS BLACK"; a new "UNDERWORLD KING," chosen and "crowded," the color of whose skin "IS BLACK," and, iniquity of the inquiries, affront to the silk shirts, lace pettitures, to WHITE THEVES and PROSTITUTES HAS BEEN PERMITTED TO ASSUME MORE OF THE FORMS OF THE OLD LEYWEE DISTRICT."
"PERMITTED? Do you believe it? Its coarse, brutal sense? The shameful confession conveyed?
PERMITTED! As though the WHITE VIS strutting to and fro in our midst, the brutal sense, meeting us at every turn, were with our solicitation, through the perseverance."
some authority higher up, whose favor we had sought and obtained.
Sure it is a harrowing spectacle, a cruel wrench to the tender nerves and excalled ideas of this young champion and "chippeau"-dom of the dethroned white "chippeau"-dom of the final hands, who, so it prints in the BACK ROOMS of NEGRO SAOLOWS * * * LEANING ACROSS TABLES GAZING INTO THE LEERING EYES OF THEIR BLACK COMPANIONS."
In another division of this lament in grapple, each line wet with a tear, we are told, almost made to hear, the "toasts" drank in "companions" * * * to their white victims.
VICTIMS? God save the mark—and overlook this fideous, ravaging truth on truth.
VICTIMS? What about the REAL one, the BLACK-FACED VICTIMS, THE MOTHERS, HUSBANDS, BROTHERS, SONS, MOTHERS, HOMES, REPUTATIONS, AMMORTIMES, CAREERS, that are daily and nightly, poisoned, wrecked, MURDERED by our resident and business district WHITE TROLLOPS with disease in their veins, and aggression in their embrace, that this vexy sheet in green is so mightily stirred over?
What of the fathers, Negro fathers, heads of families in our midst, some of whom have dwelt to many of us, who, because of the "WHITE PALE-FACED" STRUMPERS and their association with them, are men—BUT A STEP FROM HELL?
What of sons and brothers—the pity of it—the tragedy of it—the hope of mothers, the pride of sisters, who in the very morning of their lives have been cast draped naked to the soul, bruised, bleeding to the journey just begun," by association with these very SLATTERNS IN WHITE THIS Saturday Telegram thing preclaims "victims" to "black companions?" What of many of our young girls, daughters of the race, Chicagoans, "to the manner horn," pure, sweet, hopeful, entitled to the best in life, who in many instances, traceable direct to this same influence of association, over their fathers, have found themselves suddenly burdened by their brother, BROTHER HOME, FAMILY REPUTATION; all, gone in a night or a day, all gone, swallowing the list—we know of them—of "the slaughter of the innocents?"
Of these things, these tragedies, THESE BRUTAL--SLOW MURDERS--that daily and for years--for the painful influence of white harborry has long cursed our section--are and have been transpiring, this whisper a scripple of a scribe, this jack of lanteri out of the newspaper man, with his out of seeking the dough, nor NO vision to hear, no heart to touch, no tears to hear, no him, this little, mustillaneous, cruel thing compared to the dignities (?) of WHITE HARLOTS, their dues, where they shall be housed, who shall be u尔 associates who be permitted to drim: "The poison of their bodies, who, what are NEGRO FATHERS, NEGRO SONS, NEGRO DAUGHTERS, NEGRO HOMES, REPUTATIONS, CAREGIRS, that HB—the of fensive cuss--should worry!"
BUT, to quote his editorial opinion, vanished SIGHT OF WHITE WOMEN--courtesans, WHITE WOMEN--trolls, DAUGHTERS--WHITE MEN--protests--MINULING WITH NEGROES IS DISUSTING TO SAY THE LEAST. AND PLACE THESE WOMEN IN THE LOWEST DEPTHS."

BELL TRIAL ON
Great Interest Throughout the State.
Joliet, Ill., Nov. 5.—The trial of Joseph Campbell at Joliet, charged with the murder of the wife of ex-Warden Allen, is attracting attention throughout the state. Six days were consumed selecting a jury and fully a week or more will be required to hear the evidence.
State Attorney Martin is prosecuting vigorously, demanding nothing less than the death penalty for Campbell. He is opposed by ex-State's Attorney F. L. Barnett of Chicago, who is being able to assist by Lawyer A. B. Cowing, brother of Judge Cowing, who frequently presides in the Court. The lawyer himself appears confident, saying that his innocence will be shown at the trial.
The interest of Chicago people has manifested itself by visits of a number of Chicago citizens to Joliet. They say that the proceedings are of unusual interest. All of them believe that Campbell is guilty.
1.851 Stunches number of churches raised collections to help meet the expenses of the trial. Up to the present time about $125.00 has been collected. The expenses will exceed $300.00, so that justice-loving people may contribute to help Campbell in his struggle for his life. Contributions may be sent to the Negro. Please include a copy of State Street Street, where it will be acknowledged and published in the colored papers.

IN MEMORIAM.
Our beloved mother, Ellen Magby, born in 1855 at Griffin, Ga., departed this life after a short illness Friday, October 22, 1915, at 517 East Thirty-seventh street, Chicago, Ill. Services were held at MI. Sinai Baptist Church, East Thirty-fifth street, of which she was a member. She leaves four sons and four daughters to mourn our loss, which is heaven's gain. We thank her many friends who were so loyal to us during her illness, and those for the beautiful floral designs.
A precious one from us is gone—
A voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.

"The Birth of a Nation" Is Answered by The Black Man's Part in the Bible
"Moses was found by a black woman." "Moses was educated in a black school." "God allowed Moses to marry a black woman." "Moses' black father-in-law was the author of our system of courts, from the city to the supreme court," that we have today. "Solomon declared he was a black man." "Solomon employed black men to work on the Temple." "Solomon sent to Africa for his black bride." "Jesus was rescued and rocked in the black man's cradle in Africa." "God first instructed Moses to bear the first Christian badge by helping Christ to bear the Crown. Jesus was a black man by blood." And when he comes world His hair will be woolly and not straight.

He Is Also a Thorough

Among the young men who have made
good in their professions in Chicago
during the past few years, James N. Simms
stands out合其精湛的 prowess, Mr.
Simms is a graduate of the
University at Delaware, Ohio, the
university of Indiana and the Indiana

A. B.
Hon. James N. Simms.
Firmench building about one month ago from the corner of Twelfth and Halsted streets, the past two years, during which time he appeared in cases as counsel for many of the men. Among them might be mentioned the names Alicia Schaubler, M. Mannheim, John Baldwin, Joseph manufacturers and dismantle setters; Dr. Charles Lichtenberg, retired, and on occasion bear the names of James N. Slimma, who is the most important case that he figured out. Joseph Friedman and Rebecca Goodliffe prosecuted by the Jewish Aid Society.
The case therefore attracted wide attention and because of the determination of the defense, the court convened a conviction of the defendants. The case hung fire for about three weeks, and the defendant was on from Philadelphia on the part of the State attorney nothing was left undone by the State's Attorney that might aid the cause of the prosecution. After the evidence was all presented, the State attorney argued by the State's Attorney, and Mr. Simmus, he succeeded in showing to the judge a large number of people who were convicted by the state that the defendants could not be convicted and to the surprise of a large number of people who were convicted by the state that of this case the defendants were discharged. Mr. Simmus keeps from one to another the defendant, his bachelor and lives in an elegant tworoom suite of bachelor quarters. All things considered, he must be looked upon as a young business and professional man in the city. He owns considerable business interest outside of his law practice. We must justly be proud of.

AMERICAN MISSIONARY ASSOCIATION ADDRESSED BY BOOKER T. WASHINGTON
The Advance of the Race in a Half Century Has Eclipsed All Past Histories of Races—Educational Progress Has Been Extraordinary.
ADDITIONAL SCHOOLS
ARE OPENED
Increase in Educational Facilities Noticeable—More Needed to Complete the Work Just Started—Persistence Needed—Too Much Expected from a Neglected Race—More Finances for Education.
Part of address delivered by Booker T. Washington before the American Missionary University, New Haven, Conn., Monday night, October 25. This address was delivered in connection with the meeting of the National Council of Congregational Churches.
A few days ago I visited a little colony of black: people near Mobile, Al., several of whom were born in Africa and the last ship to ship to reach America. Several of them survive and tell interesting stories about their early and varied experiences. A few of the slave colony may be seen the hulk of the slave ship which they were brought to this country.
This has occurred practically within a single generation. What a transformation is possible in the first half of the last century, including the first slaves at Jamestown and the landing of the last slaves at Moorhead. This transformation involves growth in numbers in number, security of property, moral and legal development, and adjustment of relations with the community. A single generation are we more indebted for this transformation in the direction of the American Missionary Association. We have said we have grown in numbers. Do you realize that today there are as many as 100,000 American Missionaries there are persons in the whole of Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. You know—as of course you do—that the American Missionary Association was the pioneer factor in the educational work of the American Missionary Association. In this school the first school for freedom. In this school the freedmen in industrial education was out of this school the Hampton Institute out of this school the Hampton Institute out of this school the freedom in a way the product of your association.
No one of the religious organizations with which he engaged in the work of educating students has worked than your association. You are maintaining more schools for the higher education than any other board or association. I have had opportunity to visit practically every country. In so doing I have been very impressed with the good work which educates under the auspices of your association under the mind not only the larger and more prominent schools, such as Fisk and Tallahassee, but the smaller and less well known institutions.
Progress Extraordinary.
Fifty years ago the education of the Negro in the South had just begun. There were less than 100 schools devoted to this purpose. In 1867 there were only 1,529 schools for the freedmen, with 2,057 teachers, of whom 699 were colored. There were 111,442 pupils; 18,758 of these people were studying the alphabet, 55,163 were in the spelling and easy reading lesson classes, 42,879 were learning to write, 40,454 were studying arithmetic, 4,661 were studying the higher branches. Thirty-five industrial schools were reported, in which there were 2,124 students who were taught sewing, knitting, straw braiding, repairing and making garments. In 1916 there are almost two million Negro children enrolled in the public schools of the South, and over 100,000 in the normal schools and colleges. The 699 colored teachers of 1867 have increased to over 34,000, of whom 3,000 are teachers in colleges and normal and industrial schools.
Increase In Facilities
When the American Missionary Association began its work among the freewheeling students of the colleges for higher and secondary education of the Negro. There were only four in the North. In 1915 there are in the South fifty-three in their training. There are thirteen institutions for the education of Negro women, the colleges for secondary schools and departments. There are eight.
of law, four of medicine, two of dentistry, three of pharmacy, seventeen state agricultural and mechanical colleges and over forty industrial schools. Fifty years ago the school property used in the education of the freedmen was small. The value of the property now owned by institutions for education was $17,000,000. Fifty years ago only a few thousand dollars was being expended for the education of the Negroes. In 1914 the property was expended for their higher and lower schools and $-700,000 in their public schools.
Education Just Begun.
Although there has been great progress in Negro education during the past fifty years, Negro schools are, on the whole, far below those in white schools. The majority of these schools in the South are still without schools of their terms is from three to five months. The Negroes constitute about 11 percent of the country. A little less than 2 per cent on the expenditures of the over $700,000 spent on public schools the Negroes receive about 1½ per cent. More money is spent on private schools about $4,800,000 annually—that is expended for higher and industrial training for Negro students.
Persistence Needed.
I find in some instances that there is a belief that Negro education has added importance to the education of antiguanese and religious associations to gradually withdraw their support and use their resources in other directions. The Negro education of fifty years there is still as great a need for the work of the American Missionary Association and similar organizations to provide the education of Negro children was immediately following emancipation. There are about 1,800,000 Negro children in schools. This is a large number, but not as large, however, as the number not in schools. According to the United States Department of Education, almost 1,000,000 children in the South of school age are not attending school. There are yet in the South over 2,000,000 Negroes who are not attending school. Almost 1,000,000 of these are of school age. Although there are perhaps 100,000 Negroes in schools, statistics show that only about one-fourth of these are doing work above the elementary grades. And only about one-fourth of these are doing work in education. In the fifty colleges devoted to Negro education there are, according to statistics, less than 2,000 students who are attending school.
Race Neglected
In the North the Jew, the Slav, the Italian, many of whom are such recent arrivals that they have not yet become citizens and voters even under the easy terms granted them by the federal naturalization laws, have all the advantages of education that are granted to every other portion of the population. In several states an effort is now being made to give immigrant peoples special opportunities for education over and above those given to the average citizen. In some instances night schools are started for their especial benefit. Frequently schools which run nine months in the winter are continued throughout the summer whenever a sufficient number of people can be induced to attend them. Sometimes, as for example in New York state, where large numbers of men were employed in digging the Erie Canal and in excavating the Croton Aqueduct, schools were started where the men employed on these public works in the day might have an opportunity to learn the English language at night. In some cases a special kind of text-book, written in two or three different languages, was prepared for use in these immigrant schools, and frequently teachers were specially employed who could teach in the native languages if necessary.
While in the North all this effort is being made to provide education for these foreign peoples, many of whom are so-journers in this country, and will return in a few months to their homes in Europe, the negro in the South has, as is often true in the country districts, no schools at all, or one with a term of no more than four or five months, taught in the wreck of a log-cabin and by a teacher who is paid about half the price received for the hire of a first-class con-
Small Comparison.
There is sometimes much talk about the inferiority of the negro. In practice, the black appears to that he is a sort of superior to the white, with about one-fifth or one-tenth of what the white children or their education to be progressing in. Taking the Southern States as a whole, about $10.23 per capita is spent in educating the average white boy or girl, and about $1.25 per capita is spent in educating the average black child. In order to furnish the negro with education of the average white boy or girl, and to educate the average black child, children of school age now out of school and the 1,000,000 who are unable to read can then be trained to change life, the necessary to improve the $3,000,000 now being expended annually for negro public school education in the $2,500,000 or $30,000,000 annually.
Facilities Inadequate
I find that the total value of all the property owned by institutions devoted to the industrial, secondary and light industries, is $20,000,000, which is less than the combined value of the property owned by two institutions, the Columbia and Columbia University. The total

WELL KNOWN CITIZEN
OF PHOENIX DIESE
Had Many Friends and Liked by All-
Death Was Sudden.
(By John G. Credillus)
Phoenix, Ark., Nov. 7, Mr. Rob. Richardson, of South 21 street, died Thursday morning, Oct. 21. Funeral services were held in Christ, and the rite of baptism well, after attending the Prince Hall Grand Chapter, Order of Eastern St., home and reports an enjoyable trip. He made Grand Deputy Matron of the state and entered the grocery business Cunningham and on the corner of Jefferson and fib streets. Mrs. Jones, wife of Rev. Ariz, and claims much success in her work. **** Daniel Hunt, of East Jefferson street, was found dead in his manger Sunday morning, Oct. 21. The cause of value of the property owned by institution or whites in the United States for second marriage amounts to almost one billion dollars. The value of the manual training and industrial schools for whites is almost 10 million dollars. If the property devoted to negro higher education was at all proportionate to their number would have to negro higher education would have for their higher training about one hundred million dollars invested in property instead of the twenty million dollars.
More Finances
In order to give the negro youth in the South adequate facilities for obtaining thorough training in normal and college life it is important to give the little more than $4,000,000 now being expended annually for negro higher and secondary education to $10,000,000 dollars. In other words negro higher and secondary education needs about $6,000,000 more annually than it is now receiving. The present program is taking a few days or a few years, but a century or more to get negro education or a few years of education of the whites now is. To bring negro education up where it ought to be, take the combined and increased efforts of all the agencies now engaged in this work. The North, the South the relations associations, the educational honors, white and black people, all the black people in a great effort for this common end.

"JELLY FISH
JUDGES" MUST GO
If the Heads That Interpret the Law Are Spineless and Fail to Do Their Duty, or Are Swayed by a Few Dollars, the Voters Should Know How to Chop Their Heads.
(Special to Chicago Defender.)
Minnenpolis, AlInn., Nov. 5.—The city is in an uproar as never before in its history. Indignation runs high and it's foolish to say that the people are not in earnest in making a determined stand against violets shander caused by the production of the "Birth of a Nation." Why will our courts trample upon the will of the people? It is because the voters have allowed the elective franchise to become the tool of designing rascals who piece the dignity of the status-up who are the basis of a dollar the a judge knows of the people, and the people of whom he is their servant, if he does not serve you then, Mr. Voter it is up to you to act. You know the remedy and truly he knows the penalty. The mayor of our city, Walter G. Nye, has been sworn to uphold the laws of our city and acting in good faith, he has through every official act attempted to prohibit and prevent that hellish photo picture the "Birth of a Nation," from being shown in our fair city. Every citizen who is born in our city is given this very moment, while the slaves of ill gotten wealth are perpeturing the black crime of slander against peace and law-abiding citizens of the republic by displaying that NASTY. LOW, FILTHY PICTURES WHICH ARE DESIGNEDLY CREATED TO SERVE THE PURPOSE OF HELL AND THE FIENDS OF SATAN. That the fairest and most peace-loving settlements in America are to be the standard ground for the lowest of brute sylenthia. My God above assign some reason, if the defeated at Appermatoxe are not trying to regain the "Lost Cause."
Fight, brother. Fight! Be undermined. Our father were heroes at Fortress Albany, and upon every field of battle; where the Stars and Briques were made glorious through death of undying men. We were the "Birth of a Nation" then. Never did they desist Old Glory! Nor shall liberty and God.

He seemed content to amuse himself by constant reading. As answer to a question, those who argue and chat in the spacious gallery of America, public discussions are rife with interest. Men of all ages and if you desire to get a glimpse of the inner feeling in the great business of America, if you desire to take a ride on a limited train. There is a thing queer about living aboard a train, because you can talk and laugh and have games and an occasional drink, and no one seems inquired for what is going on.

We had received Cairo, IL, where we were born, in the State of Kentucky. Here climate and characters change, conditions change. We crossed the Mississippi we are in another world, Men and women are different. There have in the South a few men and women in Crow car. Negroes are compelled by the laws of the South to regard themselves regardless of their education, wealth, or social standing. Nothing is dark in the old domination of the south. We have a population in inflation there in a thousand-fold more cruel and merciless, wanton and vicious. It excuses nothing that its government allowed upon the cars. "For White" or "For" $ up to this time had displaced no emotions and posed in tranquility. A new president that party in No. 8 is a violator that party in No. 8 is a violator that space he has a ticket for, and daintely there; is an offer on their part to the principles of the Rober business.
"You'll have to go up in the cars for niggers," says the man in blue, a brakeman, in Southern mannerism. No, 9 seemed to be prepared, for the occasion, for he said not a word, but continued to read. Rather than be disarrayed in this manner our primer of law and order secures the aid of the train conductor. By this time the whole train is in an uproar; there is a man in the car who, by the exercise of his citizenship rights, offends the entire dignity of the South. He must be removed from the car to save her honor.
"Nigger, you can't ride here; git out and git out d—n quick," No. 9 is improvement to this onalught of disgraceful abuse, quietly bows upon his knees and with hands and face heavenward prays: "O! Heavenly Father above, prepare thou a place for three—two white men coming ahead and one black one following." By this time the awe-stricken conductor seemed amazed. "Never mind, Colonel," says he, "this place is good enough for me. I don't want to go anywhere." No. 9 was never more molested upon the trip, but allowed to journey on in comparative quiet.
Inquiries of the porter about the action of the train conductor and he answered, "Well, I'll tell you, these white folks don't care to fool with a black man that prays."
WATCHFUL WAITING
POLICY UNDER
NEW APPLICATION
The Democratic Policy Towards Mexico Has Been Applied to the Appointment of the Recorder of Deeds.
(Special to Chicago Defender.)
Washington, D. C., Nov. 5, —The recognition of Lawyer Curtis brings to the foreground the fact that the office of Recorder of Deeds has been vacant a year and a third. A number of ambitious Democrats are anxious to fill the shoes once filled by Frederick Douglass, B. K. Bruce, J. C. Matthews, C. H. J. Taylor, H. P. Cheatham, John C. Dancy, Henry Lincoln Johnson and James Monroe Trotter, and there are those who think the time is growing rlpo for this "plum" to fall into the lap of some worthy member of the American Bishop Walters has worked early and late in the time. In keeping with this place to a colored president this place to a policy adopted by President Cleveland during both of his administrations. It is said that President Wilson is favorably inclined to accede to Bishop Walters' suggestion, and would do so if he could feel sure that such a step would not precipitate a bitter fight in the Senate over the matter of confirmation or stir up strife among the District forces, which soon to insist upon "home rule" when an outside court is called, may be proposed for office. Busy with other matters, it is said the President has not given a long time. After the opening of congress some things of interest are likely to happen.

A JUST RETURN FOR OUR MONEY IS DEMANDED
"Taxation Without Representation" Was Pronounced Tyranny by the Founders of This Country, Then Why Not Practice What Was Preached by Men Driven to Desperation?
THE RACE PAYS TAXES
Admission is Denied to the Very Military Schools That Are Supported by Public Funds. The Right to Pay Taxes Has Not Been Denied Us, but Representation Has Been.
Our interest is keen in these days of reorganization of the army and navy. We have the army and navy carry it in hundreds of millions of the land's payers' money (and we are taxpayers) in the cause of our Population.
The race constitutes one-tenth of the population of the nation, and therefore we have to pay it in one-tenth of the land's payers' money for in these new estimates. We pay one-tenth of the $14,000,000 of the
when you are on investment. When you pay your money for an object it is natural for you to capture it. You are a representative government because we are a representative government because we are power at the sentinel. The后 Secretary Jeklao supervised the before the Illinois Ministers for Justice, 600,000,000 for a merchant bank. That is all very nice.
**Furious Furious Money.**
The association is a highly representative people, the are they who must furnish the feet. You should be conscious of the feet. You are who pay taxes to maintain the army and the navy have no representation.
**Congress Aids Injustice.**
Follow the officials of the army and they are guilty with congressional aid, they are guilty with congressional aid, they recognize an honest, capable, efficient minority of peace loving, law abiding and

Our demand that this vile and slavish condition shall not obtain longer under the stars and stripes is not a whimsical cry of a fretting, crying baby. No, far from such. WE ARE CITIZENS AND TAXPAYERS.

We are tired of being disgraced by dishonest representation. We cannot endure longer this cursed spirit of slavery, consuming the spirit of our manhood. Opportunity! Yes, it is our. God of Freedom, give us courage, that we may carry this fight to the very citadel of the enemy, until every fee of liberty and law in this nation shall be destroyed.

Education for Young Girls in Useful Trades Vouched Safe by General Enthusiasm.
(Special to Chicago Defender.)
Dayton, Ph., Nov. 5.—The opening of the Daytona Educational and Industrial Training School for young women of the race was an epoch-making event in the community. Permanent progress is based upon the foundation of theft and culture. Efficiency at a high per cent individually means collectively more, the larger number of individuals trained to a high degree of usefulness the great the social grain. An institution to mold a higher type of womanhood commends itself as an agency of progress. The patriotism of the people of Daytona in lending aid to the uplift of womanhood is a constructive beginning, an assured future of happiness. The teaching of sewing, dressmaking, domestic science, laundrying, rugweaving, chair-covering, basketry, broom, etc., are along the lines of useful knowledge advantageous to every woman. The soul of Miss Mary McLeod Bethune, principal, will find its joy and happiness fulfilled in this institution of honored labor.

THEATRICAL REVIEW
The bill here covers a wide variety, and is an excellent one. The new team of Canny and Brown are probably the best act of its kind seen in many a day. Smillella Sisters, a claessy team, opens, and are followed by Miller and Moose in a variety of roles. Paul Kissell & Co. occupy the middle of the bill with a comedy drama called "De Vere of the Chorus," which is good, and the Childhood Days, presenting Jules Field & Co. This is a well balanced bill.
The Monogram.
The Drake-Walker Players opened their return engagement on Monday and played to big houses. Several new features have been added and the company fair to our popularity which they get on their last trip in.
New Monogram.
Clarabone Jones, and his Yama Yama players are here this week, and have a big song open with a big song review, with a chorus of 15 voices. The ollo consists of Frank De Loyns, in dramatic readings, a big song open with a big song review, with a chorus in a lovely vaudeville sketch. The closing piece stars Clarabone Jones as the hero in an Indian comedy drama which is right in line with the best ever seen here.
AMONG THE MOVIES.
The conditions of business here are good, and the weather has been most pleasant. Neal of the Navy and added another special feature for Thursday, "A Fool That Was" drew great last Friday.
The Lincoln.
The hooking here during the week has been away above the average, and the increase in our attendance is encouraging. Oakes Cook and Baltham drew splendid on Monday and Tuesday.
The Washington.
Several added attractions have been run during the present week, and they have an drawn winnery. Our week program attracted much attention, but we don't think it is as an effective ad as an individual sign for each day.
The States.
Theda Bara in "Sin," which we booked for both Friday and Saturday proved a success, and capacity on Friday night. Our big features have all been during the current week and the patronage has been
"Who Pays?" "Hitzards of Helen." and "Neal of the Navy." all drew well during the presentation, and did a table on bill, Sunday, playing two features, the Charlotte Street Mystery and "A Deal with the Dealer." They drew the Courier's Guide, a five-part noltdram, and two other features.
The Atlas.
The Vampire, which we had on Tuesday, drew packed houses. Our "feature a day" policy is proving to be a popular one, and we expect to continue it during the presentation. Nothing but the best service, and our patronage has shown a steady increase.
The Fountain.
Our program this week includes some of the best features obtainable, and each has shown a marked increase over the course of the week. The attractions are offering deserve a good attendance, and the people of the neighborhood are responding nicely.

Baltimore, Md., Nov. 5.—The local football season was formally opened Oct. 23 when the impromptu Stars lined up against Morgan's Collegiate team in a game, which was witnessed by several hundred enthusial local roots, was hard fought through the 45 minutes until the last minute of play.
Many of those who thought they knew, playfully have a walker, in the local team, but after the first half of the game with the score only 6-0 in favor of the visitors, the team
Following Annapolis' touchdown, which was made through straight line plunges, the ball was kicked off, but could not make any noticeable gains through the kick, and finally lost the ball on a fumble on her thirty-yard line. By straight plunging, which tore great damage to the ball, the great argument was settled in which the rule called the end of the play where the progress of the player stops the ball, and the feet from their goal line, and thus prevented them from counting. The referee ruled otherwise, however. Annapolis failed.

It was off to Annapolis in the last quarter Morgan downed the capital city boys on their 20-yard line, and held them in the end zone. Morgan broke loose with the prettiest play of the game, a forward pass, which netted them the ball. Morgan downed the capital city five-yard line. Here Morgan defense held like a stone wall, and just before about 15 yards on a fake pass, and attempted forward pass. Annapolis's quarterback starred for his team, and Morgan played a brilliant game for Morgan.

DELANEY RIFLES

Turkey Day Game at Pittsburgh
—Bullock Now Coach—Football an Uncertain Quantity—
Dates Open Yet.
Lincoln, Pa., Nov. 5.—Football at Lincoln University is an unknown quantity. W. H. Bullock is now head coach in place of the late Fred Pollard. There seems to be plenty of material from the reports, but the lack of dates seems to be the hindrance as only two have really been decided upon, and they are Thanksgiving day game with the Delaney Ritles at Pittsburgh, and the game with Wilberforce two days later. In all, it looks as though they will not hook up with Howard, who they trounced, to the surprise of the Hill-billies and their unsportsmanlike spilt at Hampton last year, probably will cause the Hampton school not to renew relations soon. There are two men for every position. The Proctor brothers have shown up well in the backfield, tearing through the subs for five, seven and ten yard gains. Jackson proved a hummer at tackle and Archer easily roved to be a star on both defense and defense. Bullock has with him all the

WASHINGTON SCHOOL
BOARD UNDER CENSURE
Citizens Dissatisfied with Prevailing Conditions, Which Allow Teachers to Draw Prevalent Salaries Factual Fights Prevent State Co-operation. Congressional Investigation Promised.
(Special to Chicago Defender).
Washington, D. C., Nov. 5—As has been predicted for many months, there is to be a major redevelopment of the Washington schools. The report of the District missioners has been made public and it contains a number of accommodations present in the radical school system, including the pervasive educational affair of the community merely in touch with the national authorization of the District of Columbia. Education on matters pertaining to both white and colored issues are likely to lend itself to a more formal board with limited powers remitting. It will be revised until there will be scarcely more member likely to be retained of the board is not abolished. is Pountain Poyton, who is the principal of 10 per cent of the fractional rights and who mind is biased in favor of the retention of Mr. against the majority of 40 per cent of the fractional rights and who mind is recognized that only in a complete overhauling of the system can relief be achieved in schools a joke. If that relief means the doing away with the officials who have only themselves to oblige, severe, they have only themselves to oblige.
A step in the right direction was the cutting that no person can draw more than one teacher, and the blow being aimed at certain individuals who have been serving as day teacher, night teacher, and play ground attendant, not everyone on the pay roll, it does not go far enough. Unless there are special teachers in the night schools, when those schools are filled, graduates who have nothing to do the congressional investigation will take the responsibility and if there is a response to the popular will, the doubling up of day and night teachers will stop. The benefits of the doubling up of day and night teachers will be spread over the widest possible area.

DANGER IN THE MANUFACTURE OF WOOD ALCOHOL
Death is Often the Result of Confusing Wood with Grain Alcohol—Too Much Attention to the Ventilation of Sleeping Rooms Cannot Be Sold.
Be the weather foul or fair. Man always needs the good fresh air. The American Medical Association has opened a campaign to secure the prohibition of the manufacture of "wood alcohol." The extreme danger attending the use of methyl alcohol on the premises of a prison particularly the danger of confusing the poisonous alcohol with the poisonous spirit of the journal editorial campaign, in which, as the prison officials, three persons were compelled to association, it must have the backing and co-operation of the members of the association. Access to three persons is an important other requirement blind from drinking a cordial made party of wood alcohol, says the Journal of the Association. An important from the standpoint of community health is that we should have a full clean up, as that we should have a thorough cleaning up in the areas there are filled, for that there are filled, holds good for both the spring and autumn months. The spring and autumn months are for fly breeding purposes. All that is needed are the breeding places. It is well known that there are more troubleless than at any other time of the year. They are also more dangerous for their health. As this is the season when the windows are filled with plants, it is appropriate to answer the question that their window spaces with spotted plants, it is unhealthy in the sleeping room?
Green plants give off carbon dioxide during the day. In fact, giving off of carbon dioxide is a feature of respiration and is important for keeping the day. However when one comes to measure the amount of carbon dioxide given to plants, it is negligible. The estimate has been made that in the case of a large bay window packed with green plants to give off a single low-turned gas jet. This would probably not give off enough carbon dioxide to be measurable. Therefore, the presence of growing plants in a bay window is a source of danger. This statement is given in accordance with the opinion of known authorities on the presence of plants in themselves are not injurious in themselves because they are a source of unhealthy air to protect them in freezing weather the housewife must keep plants in themselves and where plants in the sleeping room are preserved to conserve your health and keep the plants healthy.

MANAGER
TAYLOR REGRETS
A. B. C. TROUBLE
Writes from Cuba Hoping That Public Will Not Blame Him for Conditions in Final Indianapolis Game.
Ihvanna, Cuba, Nov. 5—Mr. C. I. Tayler, manager of baseball team, the best semi-pro team, west, and rated as the best in Indiana, sends out a statement to his friends and the public, calling for partial judgment over the recent trouble in their final game at Indianapolis two days ago, with the All-Star team of Owneville. "I am very grieved over the most unfortunate and disgregated affair pulled off by Delmas and the team," he said. Were wholly bluntness. His decision might have been questionable, but there is a possibility that can be said justifying the perpetrators of that unintended and ultimately happening. It was an awful chimney of my best year's work," says Mr.
“I feel that I should not be censured for the conduct of these two men. Neither should our club, for I do not believe that there is any man on the club outside those two who would have committed such an ungenerously and unsportsmannlkg act. Every member has expressed to me his deepest regrets. And, too, I believe that if DeMoss had any idea that things would have turned out as they did he would not have raised a hand to push the unplre. Remember we are not trying to shadow him for his actions. He needs no defense—he was wrong. But knowing him as I do, I am fully convinced that his conduct was worse than his heart.
Charleston a Hot-Headed Youth.
“As far as Charleston is concerned, he really doesn’t know. He is a hot-headed youth of twenty years and is irresponsible, who is to be pitied rather than censured. This untimely incident has set to naught many years of earnest effort. I hope the public will take it as lightly as they may in view of the fact that I have earnestly tried to build up a manly ball club.”

A CLEAR CONSCIENCE.
They's a lot o' satisfaction when th' shudders softly fall in sorto lookin' back-ards like to find you can't recall. Through all th' sun-lit hours not a thing you've said or done. At would in any measure give offense to anyone. It's better'n givin' flowers for th' memory is more sweet; This droppin' words of cheer are around to everyone you meet. An' when th' Sand Man gives you an' you' lost in slumber deep, The nothin' on your conscience for to drive away th' sleep.
COLLEGE PRESIDENTS PROTEST.
There have been more than 3,000 lynchings in the United States in the past thirty years, and the great majority of them have occurred in the South. The better class of newspapers unite in strong editorial denunciation of the lawlessness and brutality connected and beastly cruelty. But too often the editorial utterances are overlooked, while the prussiae account of hungering souls are ignored. The lack of the necessity of the law's delays and the "necessity of protecting our house" is convincingly offered as justification of the whole proceedings of the mob. Let us hope this meeting of the college president is the beginning of a movement against this horrible lawlessness which threatens our very civilization. Somewhere, sometime somebody must make such a beginning. Perhaps these men whose work has to do with the formation of the lawlessness and brutality generation are as much under obligation to attempt it as any other crom.
IT DOESN'T WORK BOTH WAYS.
A WAIL COMES FROM OKLAHOMA to the effect that a few years since the dark brother being in majority in the eastern part of the state, captured control of the public schools and placed their own teachers over white students. The whites claimed they were taxpayers too asked a division of the funds with which to establish separate schools, upon being denied that noon an appeal was made to the rest of the state and the dark brother was disfranchised. Now the supreme court comes along and rules that they have executed their authority and pandemonium again reigns. The court also rules that the state will be bound to the ones will scratch their heads and try to devise ways and means to get inside the constitutional limitations. What a difference it makes when the shoe is on the other foot. We have been the people outside looking in for a great number of years, have paid a liberal share of the taxes but failed to receive a liberal share of the money appropriated for educational purposes or any other public purpose. But of course that a horse of another color, we should remember that the proud Caucasian race must be first even if they have to substitute might for right.
IT HAS BEEN SUGGESTED that Haiti be annexed and be turned over to Booker T. Washington to be governed. If they would do that and protect Booker from the rebellions that occur there often it would be well governed, if the success of his school at Tuskegee is any criterion to go by.
DR. FRANK CRANE SAYS.
THE CRY OF THE OLD GOSPEL was "Save," that of the new gospel is "Serve." Yet we have not changed only grown. The New comes out of the Old. We have learned that to serve is to save. The moral force of yesterday sought to save men from a hell hereafter; the ethical enthusiasm of today is directed towards saving men from hellishness here.
Christendom is shaken with a new conscience as by an earthquake. We are in the midst of economic upheavals more radical than the French Revolution. The Servers are striking more deeply than the Savers ever struck. The Servers say labor no more be exploited, trodden, tortured for the benefit of the endowed. They are carving the hereditary parks of private lords into gardens for the people. They are taking children out of mines and factories and putting them into schools. They are wrestling public utilities from the wealth barons and giving them into the hands of the people. They are making of every woman a citizen. They are determined to give every baby a square deal. They are bringing back beauty to money-men and cities. They have sentenced to death the two chief enemies of the race—Wur and Alcohol. We are more profoundly religious now than were the men of any previous era. But we are not saving brunts from the burning; we are putting out the fire.
The Savers gave up the world as lost and attempted to rescue a few. The Servers have the bold purpose of transforming the world. The call of the Savers was for missionaries. The call of the Servers is for citizens.
DESERVING DEMOCRATS.
FIVE HUNDRED "deserving Democrats" have become possessors of life jobs in the government service through a ruling by the United States Civil Service Commission. The 500 are employees in the income tax division of the internal revenue bureau and obtained their jobs without examination and solely upon political recommendation. The Democrats evidently realize that this is their last whack at the political plea and intend not only to gorge themselves but prepare a comfortable berth for the future far from the maddening crowd.
They need to be no end of ways to get around the civil service rules, merit doesn't "pull" the thing, and an applicant with a pull who passes the examinations in a fairly satisfactory manner has a far better chance of finding a position than the one who passes much higher but lacks that friend at court.
Civil service has been of inestimable benefit to the race, through its workings we have been permitted under all administrations to have and to hold every position that came our way through competition regardless of the demon prejudice that ever and anon bobs up to thwart our progress. The departments of the government located at Washington undoubtedly have furnished more and better paying positions to members of the race than numerically we are entitled to, and in every northern city can be found our men and women holding responsible and iterative government positions.
President Wilson and his followers did all in their power to oust every demon who was high and low were easy so they were attended to along with the first batch of liberal business. Forgotten were the pre-election promises, forgotten were the faced voters who in the face of decision, and against all traditions were the Democrats a chance, they too were given the glassy stare called "impertinent and insulting" because they dared to remind His Excellency of his promise. In forthcoming elections it is well to remember some things, among which is to give the Democrats what they deserve—NOTHING.
HANGING AS AN ENTERPRISE
A THEATER AT MURPHYSHORO advertised "Nineteen views of the execution of Joe Deberry in addition to the regular program of moving pictures. * * * Many prominent citizens pronounce these pictures a great moral lesson. They prove false the slanderous attacks on Jackson county and Murphysboro." This, too, right here in a little one-horse town in Illinois. Fortunately this southern spirit is expressed so boldly by but one individual, a moving picture artist, in the certified office of sheriff, owns a moving picture house and the local newspaper so it can readily be seen why he can demand the governor with impunity. The entire press of the state followed the governor's action in denouncing Sheriff White for making a public spectacle and a gala day of the hang-
ing of a criminal, and now to show the pictures in a theater and sell photographs is outrageous. Every possible means should be taken to stop this barbary practice and punish the man who is attempting to make capital of someone's misfortune.
The sherif and "prominent citizens" who find a moral in these pictures have either reached the lowest ebb of depravity or the moral they find is to never give a man with southern tendencies an opportunity to display them in the North at the expense of the taxawevers.
SLEEPY PROPERTY OWNERS.
RAYMOND EVANS—whoever that is—must have spent hours in his study thinking as only a man of his type can think, before dipping his peek in "Carter's crimson" (no intention of advertising an ink manufacturer) and giving to the world, or rather that part of it that has for its center Thirty-ninth and Cottage Grove avenue, his views on segregation.
The medium he chose to exploit his savings was "The Oakland News," an innocent little handbill published in the interest of the merchants doing business in that section. Ordinarily little notice would be taken of such an article he published below the Mason and Dixon line, but coming within a published area would be a mention the matter. It is the same old story and the writer has said, "The new dress but fuses and fumes because members of our race have the audacity to buy homes in white neighborhoods, thereby "depreciating property values." Says this master mind: "I believe in segregation in all its degrees, and I am a believer in the passings of laws that give both races protection regardless of creed or color, for without laws of some nature on this subject giving property holders protection it will make every prospective purchaser skeptical, and skeptical purchasers make real estate poor sale, and owners nervous. These conditions should never exist regardless of what the Fifteenth Amendment says, and won't exist much longer if powerful men will only wake up to the fact that a most terrible calamity awaits you—every one unless something is done to check it."
It really is too hard to make worse own nervous and prospective purchasers skeptical, and we admit that it is decidedly wrong in us to buy a home valued at say $20,000 for seven or eight thousand, it is taking advantage of a nervous person.
And again this Vardiman diseple touchingly says: "The law absolutely has no protection for you, and still they say it's right. Can any law be right that lets a certain class of people buy feel estate in NICE WHITE residential blocks?" Would that we could do something to protect the poor white people who quiver with sharp pains every time we advance a step, they seem to forget that as imitators we have the world beaten. We have been thrust in the highest civilization, it is said, the world has ever known, we are trying to repay our benefactors (?) by following in their lead that they may not be ashamed of their proteges. Of course if white property owners insist on tempting us with such sweeping reductions in property prices we are but human and will continue to fall. From the goodness of our heart and to show that we are earnestly striving to please, we suggest that the most effectual way of keeping us and other objectionable (?) races out of certain neighborhoods is to make property prices way above instead of decidedly below par.
POLITICS IN BOSTON
STAND BY THOSE WHO STOOD BY YOU is a pretty good motto and it is to be hoped the voters of Boston will remember it when they go to the polls to elect state officers. Governor David I. Walsh is a candidate for re-election and should receive the undivided vote of the race. During his term of office he has been especially friendly, and just and has gone to the front many times in our behalf. We cannot have too many friends and the only way to keep those we have to show them in a tangible way our interests are in our behalf. It is a pretty safe bet that a candidate who gets the most endorsement of our friend, William Monroe Trotter, editor of the Boston Gazette in heart and mind and worthy of support, for he has the rare faculty of being touch with men in higher politics and knows their every movement. Governor Walsh has made good, why exchange a certainty for an uncertainty?
CEMENTING THE FACTIONS
A GREAT MANY PEOPLE waste their time squabbling over trifles and let the big things of life go by unheeded. What somebody says about you hurts less in the long run than what you say about somebody that is derogatory. Fortunately the mud throwing has ceased between the two factions, the one headed by Dr. DuBois, the other by Dr. Washington. While there is yet a decided line between their views on some things there is a corresponding coming together on the larger and greater problems the race has to contend with. There is too much to be accomplished to have contention in our own ranks, we must present a solid front if we would succeed along any line. We need both factions and there is no reason why they should conflict, let us pull all together.
WITH THE FISTIC DEATH of Jack Johnson prize fighting became a lost art. Jess Wilard on gaining the belt had visions of untold riches coming his way by simply exhibiting himself at so much per exhibit to an admiring public. Somehow the public didn't fall for his particular style of beauty even though he had for a background a picturesque Wild West show. Ah, well, honors are but empty things after all.
CLIPPING FROM ALMOST ANY NEWSPAPER, "There is a great deal of contention just now over the presentation of the movie film, the 'Birth of a Nation', the film is based upon The Clansman, etc." Strange if this picture is as elevating as the producers claim why people in every section of the country vigorously protest against its being shown!
ANOTHER WINTER faces the warring nations and the prospect of a cessation of hostilities is as far off as it was this time last year. The man who said that war was hell has a great many people who heartily agree with him.
NOVEMBER made a start worthy of a spring month, now if it will just live up to it everybody will be happy.
IT IS TRUTHFULLY SAID, taking the war debt into consideration, this war is producing far more zeros than heroes.
MEANWHILE it is well to have the coal bin filled as Indian summer has a habit of leaving as unceremoniously as it comes.
IT WOULD BE A BLESSING if the Haitians and the Mexicans, too, for that matter, if they had to work for a living.

How to Love Relatives
To love your relatives be away from home all you can. To have them love you, keep about 300 mides between you and them. They are the only way you are free, unwretched by two families of the same family trying to live under the same roof. Noah would have foundered with the ark ten days after the flood started if he had taken more than two out of any one family with him. Calm would never have killed Abe. If Adam hadn't made the fool, he would have found a new family everlastingly with him. Of course there was some excuse in the fact that in those days New York and Paris were not brilliantly attractive cities. If there is any one thing outside a church row that tickles the devil into a frenzy of laughter, the world would be a new family. So how to live while the family, about as much real life joy and harmony in it as there would be in a jungle pleistic of monkeys and parrots. There is just one place where large families can dwell together peaceably—the graveyard. It is contrary to natural law that families are not the only way to live in a city, a cub bear is old enough, big enough to hunt for food, and comes back after he once goes out his mother gives him a mauling that makes him feel he would rather starve than come back again. Does she love him? Of course she loves him to him, and he instinct—loves him to him—of his own nature. He has to be a brave, daring, self-reliant master of the forest. When the whelps of a lion get to be more than playful kittens the mother leads them into the jungle, slips away, leaving them to hunt. The young lions may return to the old home, but they are not the only way they are. They are a kinder den. To evolve their metre to become supreme denizens of the forest they must rely on their own prowess.
Take the eagle. When the mother eagle by instinct chooses the wings of her babies and instructs them to fly their bodies she pushes them out of the earth and dashes to death on the rocks. Then but, you say, human beings are not beasts, you would not afford to attend the nature wild animals of the woods to learn the secrets of the earth and the development of the individual.
Treat your relatives royally, then let them alone. Keep out of their affairs. Try to keep them out of your affairs. Be kind, generous, sympathetic. But keep out of the danger zone. Insatiable passion for living by yourself, living your own life, thinking your own thoughts, playing your part in life's drama. Parents wish they could hold their children. The way to hold them is to let go of them. If you love them you will let go. Love is unselfish. God sent His only Son on the loneliest journey ever taken, and He came back crowned with glory. God can live with lots of people you and I can't. Abraham amounted to something. God said to him; "Get thee out." "And he went out, not knowing whither." He stayed until he became the head of a people as numberless and brilliant as the stars of the heaven. But Isaac hung around home, lived on his father's greatness, and the only real thing he did that was worth while was to redig some wells his father had dug before him. The first time he saw his sweetheart, Rebecca, whom another man had to go and get for him, he lifted up his voice and cried like a boob. He had become soft on the mutton and grape juice of his father. Tender little doves fit around the home cote, but the eagle sweeps from sun to sun. Anyhow, in these modern days children are very largely bringing up their parents.
have avoided this war; Germany, by granting genuine local self-government, could have made Alsace-Lorraine as loyal to her as the people of the South are to the Union. That would have ended the revanche in France and her unnatural alliance with Russia. Austria, by granting similar liberties to Bosnia-Herzegovina, could have greatly lessened Servian antagonism; might even have secured Servian friendship. The Germans of Switzerland outnumber the Italians and French, the head of the Swiss army is a Teuton, and to make matters worse, his wife is a niece of Bismarck. But the French-Swiss do not want to join France; nor do the Italian-Swiss go over to Italy. They have justice, sympathy, freedom, where they are. These are the tallmans which the central empires have declined to try. But had they been truly Christian they would have tried them and there would have been no war.—Address at George Peabody College, published in the Southern Work
RACE ANTAGONISM THE CAUSE OF WAR
(Special to Chicago Defender.)
Hampton, Va., Nov. 5. We hear a good deal about the race problems in Europe, where a price problem was to whichuvo a price problem was to whichuvo a conscience is not entirely tranquil. We hear perhaps a race antagonism between the two countries, but the Japanese has made this war inevitable, that perhaps race antagonisms do present problems that have made this war troubled; that we have the Nergov in our midst, the Japanese across the Pacific, the Japanese across the Indian Chinese whom the Japanese may some day drill and send against the world. We have recently reconciled greater antagonisms of those which brought on this war. If the statesmen of Europe had been willing to
DEFENDER
THE BEST MAN IN THE WORLD
The real estate men and others of Oakland Center, we are informed, are up and in arms against the invasion of the Negro. They are determined to preserve lines between the respectable and the non-respectable, lines between the respectable and the non-respectable, poor, the ignorant and the learned, the black and the white. Let them be tutored history. Such things stay, they cannot be made lasting. The prosperous and the ignorant stay, they cannot be made lasting. They no sooner form a fighting line than the forces they dread rout them. In the face of this grusome failure had they not better try to consider some other form of fighting, they could not. The theory of "segregated vice" is pernicious and absolutely impossible. We absolutely true concerning segregated ignorance or segregated dirt. Had we not the issuer of the section and make the whole territory decent by enforcement against it, we would not be fighting against dirt. It is time we changed front and faced northward and give respectable, intelligent, law-abiding people of any color, race or religion, respectable by enforcement against it. We would not fight dirt, law-breaking, arrogance and unfair play everywhere. Then Oakland Center will come up and Oakland will become a "Center" infined, worth living children, to work to play, to sleep and to pray, safely and happily. If we want children to work to play, to sleep and to pray, Dreskel and Ellis will elevate Thirty-third street and its northern adjuncts.

Toussaint L'Ouverture's Rusty Sword
By REVERDY C. RANSOM
President Woodrow Wilson's dilatory attitude toward Mexico to poor convalesce with the working class will which he sent armed forces into the harbors of Hatt. That is something like the last time he was to have a good time to do his work. We admit; but we protest against the extinction of its sovereignty. We do, white America too well. Conditions are no worse in Hatt that they have been the most unsolicited. We are very old-time. Conditions in Hatt are in no wise comparable with the flood-tide of this white population. It is not a�ing overwaving flood. The face of Christ, hides a demon robed in blood, who comes to subjugate and ceerce all. He has a community of subject to his will.
With the same view of his life, Hatt has been on the right. Of course, he has used it against the enemies of liberty and freedom. In Hatt's own case he has been using the sword against each other for personal aggrandzation. The American protectorate, some American Negro's have said: "Negroes to count with the same name as the same others have said." The whole thing is an illusion and a lie. President Woodrow Wilson has cheap white democrats are eagerly anxious to go in and reduce the Hattions of the nation. The American "niggers." A commission of American Negroes are going with the ineffectuality of the people who are on the side with the prevailing American idea, their counsel would be if they fail to it will be better for that the Hattans insheath the rusty sword of Toussaint O'Neill.

WEEKLY ANTIGYMS
By Dr. A. Wilberforce Williams.
Keep In Screens.
pure cold air. People in the arctic, region and those in the lumber region, who are exposed to the greatest extremes of cold, seldom or never have "a cold." Cold are diseases of civilization—may, more, colds are diseases of bad civilization. Great susceptibility to colds spell bad personal hygiene, which may be due to overeating, bad ventilation, bad breathing, and may be due to breathing through the mouth, inhalation of bad infectious dust, etc., bad house hygiene and sanitation. Proper and intelligent ventilation of your working places, such as office, shops, kitchens, homes, stores, will go a long ways toward preventing bad colds, bronchitis, blood impoverishment, poor appetite, indigestion, dyspepsia, tuberculosis and other systemic diseases due to bad air.
**REHEARS.** Don't remove your shoes. Keep them in until December, or until snow falls. Files are just as bad as they ever were. In fact, files are more dangerous than shoes. Keep them in the early summer months. The cold weather them and drive them into the house, where it is warm. You will notice that the windows are closed to fall into the milk, soup, coffee, etc., than when the weather was warm. Then, too, this is the kyphoid season, and files are more dangerous. Your curtains raised, host your windows, but keep them screened, and admit all the sunlight that you possibly can get in the dark days and rainy season set in.
Don't fail to keep your bedrooms and sitting rooms well ventilated. The tendency on the part of a great many people this season of the year is to have little or no fire. They believe that the breathing of cold air, or that by keeping the room cold and the windows down, they are getting pure air and saving fuel. We often hear people say that "I sleep in my room without any fire, that the air is very cold and therefore pure." This is a mistake I don't care. Foul air can be cold as well as warm. Foul air predisposes to certain diseases, such as "cold in the head," nasal catarrh, sore throat, bronchitis, etc. It is a good thing to have a little fire or heat this time of year, but please keep windows lowered a little from the top and hoist from the bottom, so as to admit the fresh air and allow the foul air to escape. Bad air tends to lower the body resistance. It inhibits, or reduces, the anti-bolides, and therefore renders you more susceptible to "bad colds" and other catarrhial affections of the respiratory tract. Don't be afraid of "catching cold" from fresh cold air. Of course, if you sit in a draught and expose one side of yourself, you are more likely to contract a "cold" than you would if you sit in a room where there is an equal distribution of cold air. Then, too, if you should lie down on a couch and fall asleep without proper covering or protection you are very likely to contract a cold. But you never contract a cold from
**Aiding of the System**
The instructional system can easily be trained to resist almost any atmospheric conditions. Some people can go through it within the climate without the need for wear and, in this largely due to the fact that we wear it, is also largely due to the fact that we wear it. The skin and other parts of the body have the same importance or trained to resist cold and sudden atmospheric changes and chilling of the skin. The skin is cultivated the instigat of a cold bath or a cold sponge every morning, by keeping it in a cold water, by keeping it in a normal condition, the stomach in a healthy condition, not overworked or overcooked, and well-balanced diet, not too much meat, nor too little vegetables and cereals, but a good mixed diet, will add much to the temperature. The apartment should not be too warm; should a constant draught of fresh air be brought in bed c. bar. This, too, will tend to me resisting the system; a power appliance prevent crying, keep hands healthy feeling; and, in fact, we the same common sense can keep good and healthy work we use in keeping the system good running condition.

Defender Property Name
Mr. R. S. Abbot, Editor Chicago Defender. Dear Sir—We have read your letter, and think whenever our race makes a success of anything it should be praised. It well deserves its name, too, for it certainly makes us proud. I think your frankness in attacking those crimes perpetrated in the south land.

Answer: If you did not sign the check nor authorize anyone to sign for you, then the insurance company should not have paid your check, and if you can pay the check, then the insurance company. I might add that you were a little negligent in the arraignment, and your policy and book to anybody but the company. However, you are entitled to relief, and if you proceed in the proper course, although it may involve your cousin.

Question: I was arrested on a charge of disorderly conduct and gambling and carried out by the court. I was tried by Judge Frye. I waived the jury trial and tried by the court. I were about to be arrested and the court arrested a time. The disorderly charges were dismissed. The disorderly charge found me guilty of keeping a house and gambling and assessed my fine at $200 and there any way for me to avoid this fine?

Answer: Yes, you may appeal the caause and no doubt get a reversal of the charge. You can be charged with gambling, look out for $35 street just now. Take a fury trial and be charged with petty offenses. It is a good judge and discharges many persons charged with petty offenses, but if you are charged with gambling, be careful of your time in signing that fury waiver.
