C., Dec. 21—Still loyal to the "hot cause," Bishop Walters of the METHODIST church was seen here last week when he came to visit the President and the prominent white Democrats of the METHODIST church was kept a keeper of records and deeds in order that the recession of race Democrats may be stopped. White Walters has urged at all times the appointment of our people to be the president, he has no precedent in having Dr. Walters appointed. Now, those who went solid for Wilson in the election of the President will never forget the treatment that the race has received in Washington as a president, for he worked side by side with other employees, nor the present attitude of the southern Senators who, instead of seeking to prepare the nation against attacks of a white supremacist, worked Jim Crow laws for the District. No matter who is appointed now, it will only be done as a bait, and the people are tired of having a woolen cap pulled down over their eyes. Another thing that the president has done is to white southerners and northerners commented on the death of the great Booker T. Washington, while the President sat mum. What we want to know is, if the nerve to ask anyone to come out and vote for the low-down Democrats." GETS PAROLE AS CHRIST: MAS PRESENT.

BARNETT CLAIMS THAT COURT ERRED Asks for New Trial of Campbell on Ground That State Did Not Find the Accused Guilty of Murder—Claims State Could Not Prove Mrs. Allen Was Murdered. REINIARD'S TESTIMONY DENIED Admittance to Records—Will County Citizens Are with Campbell, Claiming That He Has Not Recovered Fair Treatment and That He Was Tried by News reporters Who Were Prejudiced—State Woman Who Refused to Have Body Exhumed. Joilet, Hl. II, 21.—Attorney Frederick L. Barnett attached the verdict that con- tended to death on Monday when he made a new trial in Judge Hooper's courtroom. Barnett offered eight clear reasons why a new trial should be granted the former houseman of the Allen family when Ed- dition of the state penitentiary, 1:39 Morrow, 1:39 Morrow, Judge, who had come all the way from Watson, opened the court to hear the arguments for and against a new trial. Campbell came into court wearing his worry, but was interested in the out-come. He wore a new suit and looked much better than the day the jury found him guilty. Lawyer Barnett talked for two hours, and it was then that State Attorney Robert Barnett moved his motion. Cities Scores of Errors. Attorney Barnett burned his motion for a new trial on the following points: 1. Court erred in admitting improper evidence. 2. Court erred in refusing to admit proper evidence. 3. Court erred in refusing to 50 strikes out improper evidence. 4. Court erred in refusing to give certain instructions. 5. Court erred in refusing to instruct jury to re- fuse a verdict finding the defendant not guilty. 6. Evidence does not sustain the verdict. (a) No corpus delicti no fracture proved. (b) No criminal assault. (c) No analysis of secretion made. (d) No setup of setting on fire. (e) No evidence against defendant. (f) No exclusion of persons on fourth and fifth floors. (g) No admission of money or suggestion to the court. (h) No loss of money or suggestion to the court. (i) No finger prints. (j) Failure of proof in denial. (k) Action of conscious innocence. **Scouts Assault EVIDENCE.** The lawyer paid particular attention in his argument to the evidence tending to prove a criminal assault. Barnett attached the testimony of Dr. Clendon in this connection and argued that the evidence was sufficient to prove Peter Reinhard, Chileng doctor, to deny facts charged by the convict doctor. The citizens of Will county are anxious to see a new trial, and some of the evidence presented in the trial should be held somewhere else besides Jollet, owing to the power Allen had, although it is a fact that his power as far as politics is gone, but there is no doubt that he was still due. They say that, no matter how low a man is, no how low or friendless, that he is never too far gone to fail to receive justice from the people of Will county. FOUR KILLED, FORTY IN- JURED.

Thursday at 10 n. m., the sharp report of a recover brought to light facts that are well worth your pondering over. A grave and serious issue is raised, affording purity directly involved, but you and I and every citizen of the United States. This issue runs out of the Federal Constitution known as the right of civil liberty. It guarantees the right of all citizens to be citizens under treaties of foreign governments with the U. S., the right of life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness. The question of civil liberty, then, is the Civil Liberty the Issue.

SAT Shelbyville Has Race Institution Made Possible by King's Daughters of Bath Races—Graduate Nurse in Charge. Shelbyville, Ky., Dec. 21.—The new hospital for the race was dedicated Sunday to an unappropriate exercise at St. John's M. E. Hospital speaker was Editor Roscoe Simmons of the Louisville News. This hospital had its beginning in 1913, when the race of the King's daughters purchased the Creamery Co. on Teeth Street for $2,000. Then the white circle of the King's Daughters took charge of the remodeling, which has now been completed at the building in a thousand dollars.

LESLIE A DECENDANT OF SLAVERY Heirs at Law of Publisher's Widow Make the Charge—Have Had Detectives Looking Up Evidence—Big Money the Issue—Contest Held in Secret, But News Leaks Out. LESLIE'S WIFE JUST THE SAME. It Doesn't Matter If She Was Blue by Law, She is Entitled to His Money and, As She Left It to Her Son, Then It's—Supposed to De From New Orleans. New York, Dec. 24—The fact that the news has leaked out that the salt brought to set aside the will of the late Mrs. Frank Leslie, widow of the milieu that it is claimed that she has blood in her veine has created much surprise here. The fact was not known, as the case has been held in secret before Judge Fowler, but when William Cromwell and Louis H. Cromer filed an incrimination of the will let the cut out of the bag. Claim Mother a Slave. The contention is that Mrs. Leslie's mother was a slave. Her father, it is also claimed, was a rich Southern plumer. These claims result from the investigation carried out by the detectives hired by Mr. Westcott, who has been employed by the grandson, who is the dark heir. The accounting refers to a payment of $1,950 to the Scholder National Detective Agency for services in connection with the investigation of the family history of Mrs. Leslie. Another Wren for a trip to Charleston, S. A. Wren for a trip to Charleston, S. A. for the same services. History Hard to Find The executors have learned that Mrs. Leslie was 78 years old and that she was born in New Orleans. As to the other facts the executors say that Mrs. Leslie was 78 years old and that she was getting the suit to set aside the bill to $1,800,000 which Mrs. Leslie left to suffrage, the executors said; "The general nature of the claim is that Mrs. Leslie was 78 years old and that she left no heirs at law or next to kin on the part of her mother." According to the money should go to them, as the deceased got the money from her husband. What difference does it make whether she was white, brown or blue? She is a white woman, brown or blue, as she has passed to the Great Beyond, it belongs to her son and to those whom she saw fit to give it to. When she was married to the publisher he was satisfied, and when she never complained, but now she has gone, some loop-hole which they think some weak-knee judge will sustain him is brought up. Law and justice knows no color only in these United States. CHIEF ENGINEER OF BIG FIRM. Toronto Company Takes Race Youth As Adviser of Aeroplane Company to Furnish Fliers for British Army.

A Self Explanatory Letter. (Special to The Chicago Defender.) (Grundig, Okko, Dec. 17, 1914. To the Editor.) My Dear Sir: First upon behalf of a broad humanity, unharmed by racial injustice and the fetter of blood desecration, and the fetter of blood desecration, you upon the line service you are not only rendering to the race you are not advised to be identified with, also, whether you have calculated it or not, are nominated, "white race" in this country. In the thought of the late Mr. Washington, a great and good man, no inexperienced perpetrated upon one class of citizens, perpetrated upon one class of citizens, zone of the earth they struggle and have their being, when permitted to go unrelied, unregreted, by the other man, the Christian age, but that, as sure as the sun will shine tomorrow, will sooner or later demand a hearing, cry out for justice upon the thoughtless and gully ones, whether they be nations or individuals. I am a white man—in soul I hope as I am a white man of my skin—and argue as I will, that I am the declared, high and unselfish aim of my country, relative to its occupancy, intentions toward the black republic of India, and to the certain crime, a NATIONAL, MISDEMEANOR, calculated to work a harm to the people of that land and in the end with disgrace the land in which I live. My attention was first directed to The Chicago Dofender—an nigger paper," so shook of at the time by who once encamped in the city, and meeting held in one of Kansas City's (Mo.) leading churches, at which time the attitude of the United States towards niggers was present, as proving the view of the important people of this country towards it. I read an editorial from your columns, and wrote a English and other thought; and believing the intention to be HIGHLY and SOUND, and that you should strike and spare not; the column to summer away at the nation's mansion; and the column to turn up full of its motives and actions in connection with the unfortunate people in question, I am sending you a copy in this city, and I will send it to Dec. 14, published in this city, which contains a letter sent by a young man doing service under the Stars and Stripes of the United States, to his father, a resident of this city.

In the face of this impending catastrophe—and as sure as God reels in glory, IT IS IMPENDING. It would seem that the president, out of place, a movement unlikely to credit, if the colored people of the large cities of the nation, should meet in mass assemblages, by speech, vote, head off this premeditated and cut and dried crime; THIS STEALING OF A CITY. It would NOT be in of place, and mightly to its credit, if Chicago should break the ice, take the lead in such a place, and much to their credit, if, and sentive colored men and women, should in the near future, wait upon the Dion Homeland, with a response that the Real Estate, the REAL aims and intentions of this country in regard to the kind of Fonsaint LOUIS of NONE of these actions would be out of place—NOT ONE OF THEM!

C., Dec. 25.—There are two very grave problems with which Afro-American problems are hardened, and one race problem is more serious, white Americans are mainly concerned. The first of the Afro-American problems is how, in his unnatural environment, he learns to live and to link his living links in the natural chain of oughts, with which the God of an applied his ancestry to develop the life of his self-serving, self-preserving, and self-fending, black men, which were devised by the institution of slavery in the 18th century, white self-admiring, white self-serving, white-scroring, and white self-decriminal, self-serving and curious and problem is the capture up the spirits, or sensing, which by the prismically developed this adult, with dissonious thoughts, about changing such connec- tance, of his two problems claim the problem consideration, it is entitled until we pause to consider the character, is the direct of the thought-impressions, / Which makes it appear that unless you tell it which means are devised and stressed to him, he will never be able to solve his problems. The perplexing problem, as to how to help him, is a desire to define and, to continue him in a defined environment, and the same time, which the Afro-American presents to the white American with the same problems, is the thought-imperfaced by the thought-imperfaced by the native environment, is a very little problem, which he presents to himself. 'The problems, which the Afro-America presents both to his white neighbor and to his native environment, is a gentleman that the former can hardly do his problem without solving those problems, and will govern such sensualities will produce a desirable citizen in the Afro-America, for the same time solve the problems of his problem in self-governing principles in his offspring, and of changing improper self-principles already developed in his adult. White the problem of how to develop his to a desirable citizen, which the American is very grave, when compared with those which he presents to himself how to develop, or how to develop, self-education, which in his native environment, it whiles into aliquot instillenciae, cessent in his thought, to serve his problems the indulge in some thought-impressions, which induced them. The white American decries undesirable citizenship, while still possession of the plan of life supplied in succession to the principle of giving an income a pattern by which to cut a cut, and then to denounce him when following the pattern. the ancestry of the white American give the ancestry of the Afro-American the plan of life by which he is producing his ancestry and develop his ancestry and kill him following the only pattern with which he has been supplied without supplying him with another. In possession of an environment to develop the self-gotting principles of free men, by which he can see defects in the Afro-American, which he cannot see in himself by which he can develop white masters, can much more easily solve his problem of supplying him with the thought-impressions to develop deprivation of training and of training which he supple the Afro-American, than he can supply himself with thought required to develop deprivation in his also-made en Again as the white Americist is already accious of the objectionab defects in his body, he should diligently begin at once to remove them; it as he is unconscious of him he can even learn to help illnest; and eschews the use of his body properly to him as their posites do his white neighbor. At the Afro-American is unconscious of defects, and unaware of unit of them as nothing mo, nor less, an opposition to his col, behind their obsession with the agro-agrowing tribes and dispositions. What is adding to the multitude of air problems and hinderen, their actions are unimportant thoughts have on numbers and racecals also conditions of their cause, because the harmful and fallacious unhappiness of the poor compartment slaves were supplied for work, for which they well designed, transferring their ideal mo. to their masters, and in regard to the parish of the white America, their servicervation, and self-defense in them, lich thereby made them hurlors, or, in the case of the white America pointed their defects to their offiings, and used them the result of nation intolerantness, and descendants have been only try-during the past two, or re, hundred, years, to discover, or to establish, and the black men; and their lors have only resulted in flooding the wid with a huge mass of false philophy and prose in the strife of ignorant inhance. solve his problems the Afro-American will have to be made conscious of his false conclusions, that the sole cause men and women from on equal place in the industrial, commercial, political, civil and social world is his color, are false; and that men and women from on equal place in the neighborhood will have to be made conscious that his conclusions, that the cause of the differences between his self-government and the differences of their creation, are false.

Value of Old Coins. In the public mind a coin more than 50 years old is hoary with age and so rares as to be almost priceless, but a silver dollar of 1755 is actually worth no more than 2 $ to dealers, and then only if it is in an excellent state of preservation, for a great many of them were colined. A half dollar of 1803 is worth as much as 15 cents more than its face value, but collectors and dealers find that there are so no profit in circulation that there is no profit in selling and selling them.

AMERICA'S TREATY WITH HAITIANS A FARCE AMERICA'S TREATY WITH HAITIANS A FARCE (Continued from December 11.) Three times America has perished in conflict with us on diplomatic grounds. The threat which stands out clear and precise concerning these three conferences — the United States, the United Nations, Governments, is the control of our custom-houses and thanages by an American government, the control of our military and naval forces in the States for the suppression of our insurrections from periodical and hegemonic persecution, perpetual Cabinet at Port-au-Prince found itself disposed to negotiate. Think a little: the threat of a guarantee against the attempts and dancers created by the "coercive" question of a guarantee against the attempts and dancers created by the "coercive" question of control of the custom-houses finances which in this case was the standing block. We have seen how the United States has tried to render a counter to the susceptible natives. The counter plan was not accepted; the Fulfillment of the contract was sent away without a word. Empty Promises. America, it seems to me, had its best benefit this occurrence and besides it knew well that Littles flanked by their cows always put themselves to put itself to the exasperation of oblivious We have not taken any steps against this political and military situation, though without doubt, that there exist high highish high enough and thick enough to guarantee us from all harm and to permit us to continue our false conception of patience and self-control. Government and seized the first opportunity we formed them to occupy our homelands. We are face to face with a military occupation. The American assure us of a peace and a stable St. Marc, and however we do not doubt that they will make as much out of it as possible. "If they are to touch to which we have arrived after a century of disorder, We are in the presence of a material fact against which neither customary declarations or clever calculations can avail. If neither customary declarations nor combinations cannot do anything. Duty Forenist. We must give up our little personal interests and force ourselves to go out from this dead lock. The watchword of the which will be that of tomorrow is to engage in a frank conference with the which will be that of tomorrow is to engage in a frank conference with the which will be that of tomorrow is to save ourselves from the shipwreck. In spite of all appearances, I have no reason nor will I be fused to fuse and will leave our honor which they have no reason nor which it will not be to rescue ourselves for injury. but to rescue ourselves for injury without damage to our prestige. It is a great and patriotic task which rests on our faith which will teach us to oust our duty henceforth under penalty of deposition,—La Patricia. Race Prejudice Mutual. I do not believe it is possible to dispel the prejudice of the Halltions against the Americans by a more intolerable American's prejudice against the negroes. As long as this prelude will last, we will not need not he astonished that we should have distrustful, we do not believe the American friendship, because we know what the race is. When they would establish themselves here, we would have some inferior causes or hatred, produced by his choice, and fail to produce between two people so essentially different and ill-dressed one nation States has really of "all the people of the white race who had contributed to the war," to Mrs. Becker Stowe, the wife of an American pastor, we are indebted for the magnificent plan for the abolition of slavery. It is an American Cabin. It is an American, John Brown, who gave his life for the franchisement of slavery. Secession and other causes, it was fought also for the emancipation of the slaves. And still we disliked the Americans to an extent that we are reproached for it. Distrustful. In order to capture us, they gave charity to our poor, and send provisions to our cities devastated by a cyclone, and to our troops devastated by a cyclone, and them but still distrust them. Could no many seeds of love would not produce only hatred? Why? Should Haiti be allowed to be devastated by a cyclone, said, gratitude is one virtue of our race, we must seek other causes for our prejudice. That it is true has contributed much to the uplift of our race, but they have regretted it. After having given them their liberty, they have become frightened by the greatness of their enemies, and they have imagined to crush the negroes under the prejudice of color, what has been done. Color An Excuse. In no position did the black race more oppressed than in the United States. " Their color alone is the sole cause for their degradation, oppression and equation, wrote Ellas Rengault in August 1971. " The black race barrier in order to prevent them from advancing in industry, commerce, politics and the army. They have hannished them and deprived them of the rights quoted by the whites.

Americans Insufficient. Not Worth the Price If to initiate us, we must have like Porto Rico, a colonial form of government; if for this aid we must give that which is most dear to man, his liberty coalfield; and if for this issue, I am like the fool in the fable: "I would have a treasure at this price." Halt! Betrayed. The United States has violated the independence of a sister nation. Without any excuse whatsoever, they have made a conspicuous mistake in the sponsible dictator of Haiti. Anarchy in Haiti is not worse than anarchy in the United States. Anarchy is as bad as the present condition in Europe. Murder and lynching in Port-au-Prince and in Georgia. Haiti can and will follow its destiny and is more civilized today than the eastern part of Texas. These are the reasons for the firing on, and disarming of peaceful Haitian citizens, the "sure of unimpaired unity." A plague attempt will eliminate St. Nicholas Plateau, unifying the claims of an American company which holds a fraudulent railway. Shame on Amercian! Dut what are the ten million American Negroes going to do for us? Can they not at least do the same? Can they not at least protest; demand a concrete and honest statement as to the American intention in Haiti; and further demand the formation of a men's organization of men of both races to find an amenable solution of this problem.

Accordingly, he is even willing to defray the cost of putting on the market the numerous novels he writes from year to year. On the occasion of his last visit to his publisher, however, he was somehow forced to rather unusual thing for him. "Why," asked he, "do you charge me more this time than before?"

What distance and what height of a horse jump is a curious inquiry. The reader will certainly measure on 39 feet, an idea of the horse's capacity in this direction will be guttured remarks the London Times. Such a distance a steeplechase horse called Old Chandler is reported to have covered at Warwick some years ago, and there is more than one apparently an authentic record of a horse clearing seven feet in height. The scene of one such exploit was at the Phoenix park and the horse was an animal descended from a famous winner named Potosus, himself called Turnip. The animal baligned to Sir E. Crouton, and the duke of Richmond, then tord heutement at Ireland, wagered 5000 that seven feet in height could not be cleared. A wall of the requisite dimensions was built, and Turnip was ridden at it. He did what was asked of him in perfect style, but it happened that his grace, not knowing that the feat was ready for performance, was not looking when the jump was made, but Turnip was therefore ridden over it again, not only successfully but easily. The wall of hylfie parn, opposite Grovenor place, six and half feet on the inside, with a drop of eight feet on the road beyond, was also been cleared.

LABOR AGENT HOUNDED JOHNSON (Continued from page 1.) trol labor and capital. A man's union card today is of more value to him than his debts and assets. The decision of a union leader equal importance with a court ruling. The effect of this arbitrary power has been the legal institution right under the Federal Constitution. Between 1821 and 1909 there were 223 cities where then those were without being misleading. Chicago has been in the center of this warfare from 1812 to 1821 and in 1831 to the carpenters' strike of this year gradually the citizens' right of liberty has been taken up. The New Sovereign. Under this new sovereignty, Unionism, the hands of Capital are tied and the freedom of the Negro is nummed. The hands of Capital are tied and the freedom of the Negro is nummed. You say to the 12,000,000 members of our race: You shall not have the same opportunity to earn bread for your family as you have the same opportunity to earn bread for your family. You shall not run your business except as we agree that you shall operate. You don't want migrants or the principal industries is the transportation monopoly. These companies are completely controlled by the wishes of the union. You don't want the union to do not give them, they have the wiphb in their hands. "If you do not give a strike at this moment on the Chicago Belt Line, Members of the race cannot be employed as a trumpeter, because the union's power of affair is to be found in every important industry in the United States for the reason that they are all unorganized." David Johnson Shot. March 13 Alex and two other men drove up in an automobile to a new neighborhood. A wid Johnson was working on the scaffolding and a car. Core big man must help, but the driver M. "Heat it out of here, you cheap states, or you still be crooked," the warning Alex drove half a block ahead and waited. Soon a man's hand was inserted into Alex's chest downway and three stools were in need. David Johnson tell of the scaffold that got through his right leg and that he was in a position to describe the accident was of a man about 30 years old, smooth shaven, and overcast. This description answers that of one of the sluggers indicted with Alex's behalf in the jury. Affidavits of Contractors. Contractors in their sown statements to State's Attorney Hayne, on which the defendants were bound, declared that Alex was the most disturbing influence in the Chicago hoot box. Both statements declare that he caused more trouble, was less dependable and did more to prevent peace in the city. Another individual in the building trades. They declared that his written agreements were not observed, much less his business dealings. He blamed the continuance last spring of the labor tribunals which completely tied up the building industry for months, and the lack of work, they declared, Alex by speeches promises and tales of new plants induced them to stay out until one organization was able to put in plfa on Alex, practically was disrupted. Bribery Used. It was through the statement by E. C. Walker that the Midway Gardens did not have ability to open its gates without $500,000 in trouble, as described by Mr. Walker, was used. "Pipe" coverers were culling pipe work this work had been given the pipe coverers' permission to go to his men. Everything was tied up. Simon O'Donnell, president of the Building Department, the men back, but Alex covered. We were hurrying up work, so when Alex denounced triumphs I asked him how much it was worth to me. It was worth to me. I got my partner, Occur J. Friedman, to a a friend of Alex, and I understood there next day the men were back at work." In the evidence which is to be presented, there is an understanding there me the statements of builders that a certain new moving company, Madison street near Le Salle, paid $1,000 of which Alex was a member; that a new theater on State street did likewise, the building of the American Federation of Labor in San Francisco was paid for partly out of a demand against the Triangle Film Company and the Studer-Theater. During an arbitration proceeding last summer a member of the lathers' union asked Judge, who asked about Alex's activistities: "The reason we keep him is this: He'll give us a chance to keep out of Jul. He'll do something others out of our Jobs which would cause anyone else to opt out of it he'll just hold by himself, without us. We ignore we can get more out of a follow like him in the job." "Guy?" Why Evade the Judge? The aforementioned facts need no argument to draw your attention to their Alex Slain. Record of Crime. Bribery Used. Social, Economic Loss. Organize Laylessness It was under this spirit that Solomon Johnson defended his life against a condition, a sentiment, and an organization that he was a part of. In Chicago and elsewhere there are thousands and hundreds of thousands who are in danger of being raped by the race who are in danger of being raped by the reason that they are trying to earn bread for their families. In the Chicago area, the race known as the Full Crow bill, albeit directly to eliminate the porter. If such a coming bread would have been taken from the months of many honest tober of the race and nothing given in return, the race would have been taken of this giant conglomerate which Solomon Johnson's case brings to hear and preparing to every vole of the shoots ahead.

The darkness of night obstinately viewed from viewing the birth of a Newtight, the first of the Pyramids, the tithet of the Pyramids to the ant hall;孵舍 and birds were spoonfilled awe. Softly in the distance, a sound of noise, strange and birdy with each successive moum of milk filled with a new and ecodestic melody, strange to mortal cars, pled from fear to This universal music was a banal to him who was the Sun of God; he who was the Moon of God; he who might be saved, to live and glorify himself. He knew that "the angels, Eternal and the heavens." LINCOLN JUBILEE ALBUM ON MARKET MRS. AMERICA BROWN TO HOLD OPEN HOUSE Hearing that Mrs. Brown, 5022 Illinois Ave., was going to have open house.

OUR MODERN CHURCH FESTIVALS have their origin with primal man, when the gods were supposed to have a very close fellowship man. The way in which they expressed this fellowship was in various val occasions. These were usually held in the spring, fall and winter a nature was making some great change and which the primitive mind attributed to the power of the Deity. These were joyous occasions. They are accompanied with music and dancing and the sending of presents to a poor. A sacrifice was offered to the Deity, who was supposed to come in and est the sacrificial meal with man. Our Christmas festival had its origin in the "Saturalea" of the Romans, Ich was also the heathen festival of the early Britons and as it happened out December 24th, the time when Christ was born, the Christians by a fadal process reworked it over, purging it of many of its heathen elements giving it an ethical tone. From the time the Romans instituted the easten to 273, it was known as the birthday of the Unconquered King. The Christians adopted it as the anniversary of the birth of Christ about then it was a regular church festival containing the spirit anksgiving to God for his manifold blessings.

At least if it is known it is subject the owner to all the indignities heaped upon one more color, which proves that color after all isn't really the thing that action—if it were o, what would happen to the other dark races who high favor? It is only a reminder that immediately opens a chasm in the two races. Why, no same person has ever given a plausible thousands of instances could be cited where members of the race are constantly "passing." By successful is meant that they are giving entire satisfaction in every way to their employer, have reached the highest points of life's social and economic highway. But let it be known that one drop of dark blood in theirs, and the employer discharges them, friends and business associates drop away from them one by one, until they find themselves either alone or back in the fold with their darker brother. Today the world is started to find that Mrs. Frank Leslie, who recently passed away, was the child of Charles Follin, of New Orleans, and a colored woman who had been a slave. She moved all of her life in the highest social circles and left by her will something like $2,000,000 to the woman suffrage movement. Let us suppose she had been discovered some years ago; instead of soaring like an acrobat she would have draped like a parachute. Such is justice in this land of the free and home of the brave, even when the almighty dollar is in the balance. ← There is honor even among thieves and we who are a shade darker than our brother who is "passing" can brush elbows with him daily, and for such sake we are well for the peace of mind of seventy-five per cent of our Americans, especially the Southern States, that their uncle is not traced as was Mr. Leslie's.

Whitthrop Talbot, the government expert, says that 5,000,000 adult American citizens are wholly unable to read or write, that millions more read only simple words, and that still other millions, able to read hesitatingly, rarely do read. These astounding figures are worthy of deep consideration and when added that illiteracy in many states is on the increase the sit-arming.

Handwriting on the Wall A CONFLICT BETWEEN THE COLORED AND WHITE RACES of the world is as bound to come as night follows day, and it is equally as certain that Japan will be the directing force, or in other words the man behind the gun, when that conflict does take place; already the leading journals in that wide awake little empire are discussing the probability of such a thing and there is little doubt but the government is preparing much as Germany did to meet any crisis that may arise. "Unless America will consent to ABANDON ITS SOCIAL-PREJUDICES," says the Tokyo Chugai Shogyo, a leading commercial journal, "the necessity may arise for the colored races to force a satisfactory solution. Japan must lead the colored nations to seek intellectual development for the sake of harmonizing the civilizations of the East and West, and must endeavor to avoid a military conflict." It doesn't take a very wild stretch of imagination to see Ethiopia again stretching forth her hand and coming into her own. If we believe what the Good Book says we must believe this will come to pass, and while the present generation may not be present to witness it, nevertheless the time is close at hand, in the present conflict between the world's greatest powers, the HANDWRITING CAN BE SEEN ON THE WALL. The problem that Americans have to solve is but a drop in the bucket compared to the one confronting the entire Anglo-Saxon race, who numerically are outnumbered by the darker races more than five to one. How in the face of these startling facts can they have the AUDACITY TO MISTREAT A CLASS OF PEOPLE who in the near future will be in a position TO WIPE THEM OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH is a question WE LEAVE TO THEM TO SOLVE. Education is fast becoming the property of the darker races and when they are fully enlightened woe be unto their oppressors. THE AMERICAN WHITE MAN HAS MUCH TO ACCOUNT for and it would be advisable for him to begin NOW to make preparation, having in mind the thought that it is NEVER TOO LATE TO REPENT. LITERARY CONTESTS. E IS POWER, and who has declared he is seeking wisdom, some go about than do others and by so doing got the surprises and delights. It is not an ungrown old and feeble in the pursuit that, when discovered, will not only benefit to the entire human family strides have been made in the man are now performing operations that ked upon as wholly impossible.

We find the young people of this gry of problems that tend to the uplift to lend them any aid in our power six years an annual Literary contest has were required to write and deliver essay to the race to which they belong. The subject credit is attested by the entire large audiences made up of the three even by Dr. Louis Usellman, though we two pales into insignificance compared with gains intellectually. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER, and who has declared himself as having too much power? All are seeking wisdom, some go about it in a little more methodical way than do others and by so doing got the best there is out of this old world surprises and delights. It is not an uncommon thing to find men and women grown old and feeble in the pursuit of one special study, some one thing that, when discovered, will not only bring fame to them, but will be of lasting benefit to the entire human family. What wonderful strides have been made in the medical world, for instance: Surgeons are now performing operations that a number of years ago, would be looked upon as wholly impossible. Men have sought out the hiding places of the deadly germs, have found methods to exterminate them, and we are cured today of diseases our forefathers pronounced fatal, and so all along the line the cry is for specializing; be a master of one subject if you must have but a smattering of all also. And so when we find the young people of this great city deeply absorbed in the study of problems that tend to the uplift of the race we are proud and willing to lend them any aid in our power for their further advancement. For six years an annual literary contest has been held in which the contestants were required to write and deliver essays on subjects of the greatest moment to the race to which they belong. That they have done each and every subject credit is attested by the enthusiastic applause recorded them by the large audiences made up of the thinking people of this big city. The prizes given by Dr. Louis Usellman, though very beautiful and expensive, their value pales into insignificance compared to the real development each contestant gains intellectually. . MAI. ROBERT R. MOTON THAT MAJ. ROBERT RUSSIA MOTON was selected as the successor of Dr. Booker T. Washington came as little surprise to the host of friends who know him. It is the consensus of opinion that this broad land could not be searched in vain to find another man better fitted from every point of view, to assume the duties and responsibilities attached to an institution of this magnitude. As a patriot, citizen, Christian, scholar, and a man for men he has no equal in our race. Tuskegee with all of its various activities will continue to flourish under his directing hand, for he comes to the school not as a novice, but as a veteran who has spent the major part of his life in educational work, and who has won a place for himself through his individual efforts in the hearts of the people, both white and black, in this broad land. WITH ALL DUE RESPECT to Mr. Wilson's opinion, it dawns on a great many people that he is slightly in error when he says "Democrats have nothing to fear in the coming election." If they express any fear at all it is because they realize what a disastrous thing it would be to the country to have him returned to office. Fortunately the chances are very slim. IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE, at least so the wives and sweethearts of the members of the Appomato Club think, since one of our leading weeklies advertised some of the "activities" indulged in this land of the free and home of the afraid. --- THE SHANK-UP in the police force is coming none too soon, and Mayor Thompson is to be congratulated for weeding out the undesfraibles, of which the department apparently has an overabundance. SOME OF THESE DAYS we are going to hear the roaring of cannon in this country, and we are also going to hear the superior (?) race calling for help. Moral: In time of peace, prepare for war. TOO MANY PEOPLE spend their money before getting it. That is one reason why the Old Nick and not St. Nicholas takes charge of some homes on Christmas Day. WE WISH TO THANK YOU for the Christmas presents you did or didn't send, knowing your heart was in the right place, if your pocketbook wasn't. MERRY CRRISTMAS. We said the same thing last year, the year before that and all of our years previous to that, but we say it harder this year. WITH PEACE as far away as it was this time last year, the prospect for a Merry Christmas in the warring countries, look anything but bright. TUSKEGEE seems to have the automobile spirit, since they've taken to Moton-ing. (A little far fetched, but you know what we mean.) IF THERE WERE NO SCHOOLS to take the children away from home a part of the time insane asylums would be filled with mothers. IF UNCLE SAM keeps on sending ultimatums some foreign power is going to take him seriously and "sass" back. WHEN A MAN begins to go down hill his neighbors usually get busy and push. A body hustl!

"The Michigan Manual of Freedman's Progress," compiled by Francis H. Warren, secretary of the Freedman's Progress Commission, which held a magnificent exhibition of the work of the Freedman's Progress, in a valuable book, full of information and interest to the race throughout the country, and especially industrial, professional and political progress of the race in Michigan. It is illustrated with cuts of prominent professional business men and women, also industrial, professional and political industrials of the race. The committee exercised wise discretion when they decided to transmit a copy of the Michigan Manual to the Legislature, elective state officials, circuit judges, to public libraries and each member of Congress from Michigan, the purpose of which was to acquaint the leadership of the state of Michigan of the race in the state and provide them with a faithful record of their achievements and progress as citizens.

The Sage of Tuskegee The world received the news, Tuskegee, That that night Sage last gone, Left when thou least could st spare him, rem to his Slaver and his own. You were not prepared, Tuskegee, Treat the boy, the world, If I could, I'd send and fetch him And to you I'd give him back. I'd give him back, because, Tuskegee, He left his work here incomplete (?) For there no man in all the nation That follow in his sweep. Sure, its sad to know, Tuskegee, The pitcher was broken at the well, For midnight Left him lying where his fech He led his race so well, Tuskegee, Through prejudice, ignorance and strife, And was making it a nation Worthy of the race of life. Cast your eye about, Tuskegee, What great buildings you have here In the heart of the city. These were nurtured by his care. But this princely Sage, Tuskegee, Wrought in white while it was day, Benefactors pay him homage. Praying that you'll not lose your way. The world now neeps with you, Tuskegee, Uncovered around the silent biter, Asking God for consolation And why him he did not spare? There are those, we know, Tuskegee, Who'll take the work, who'll keep up, But there's not a living being Who can ever fill his place. God acts wisely, too, Tuskegee, He takes the ripped flowers home; Leaves the books, the half-grown bows For another summer's sun. He has run his race, Tuskegee, That man in submission, more, Bow them in submission, him. Lift thy eye, ye need no more. Now listen to my prayer, "Tuskogeo, Since the Sage hase gone along, Since the Sage hase gone along, I have sung to you this song. —W. M. Montgomery, Hirringham, Atn. The grave is not the end of time. So spake the Sace from Rhedon; It is the rest-room of quiet and peace. The wreath of youth grows, never cease. It is logical to test the wits of men, To vie with him and learn of them Who mothbish his hosts to lofty heights Of wilde sublime to view such superb sights. There is still much good in the clover roots Of him who has passed but lives in memory to all through his books into each life his thoughts give. He found the Holy Grail of Wisdom of game his quarry. Onward murder to him to carry food for his hosts to enjoy in peace and freedom. —Juther M. Thornton, St. Paul, Minn. Christmas Joy By E.

BAR Randolph 3751 A. B. Do not neglect a cold. All colds are serious. Should you have a cold and this cold does not yield within a week or ordinary home remedies, you should treat it with something that should not be neglected. Dangers of cold. There are many dares to be considered in dealing with cold. The most serious of spices as colds as cocks the head and throat, and the colds there is a deranged condition in the mucous membranes or the lining of the nose and bronchial tubes and there is a congested and indolent condition. Following a cold we may have bronchitis, which is an inflammation of the bronchial tubes extending into the lungs. Pneumonia is an infection of the mature and easily recovered from under proper treatment, but if neglected may lead to the second danger of a pneumonia. Pneumonia in the medical care of weeping patients "the captain of the men of death," and from November to June will kill more people in the prime of life and old age than pneumonia. Over the report of the deaths occurring in Chicago during the week of December 19 you will find that pneumonia, "the most serious of the other disease by a number of 188. Most of the people who were killed by pneumonia were in the active earning state of the country, a great economic loss to the state as we know it. No doubt 50 per cent of those who died with pneumonia could have been properly housed, personal hygiening and medical monia, as you know, comes largely from bad personal hygiene, lod housing, overcrowding, foul air, overheated apartments, exposure to winds, dampness and dust. Third danger of neglected colds is lung consumption or what is popularly known as pulmonary tuberculosis. A neglected colds system maintains the system, produces a run-down condition of the system, lowers the vital resistance of the body and renders the immune system deficient in invading disease germ; hence the above named diseases, neglected colds, bronchitis, pneumonia, render the human system less able to resist the invading fungi. In the very early days and very often we have, following a neglected cold, thought to be of no importance, lung consumption, or, as you may, it lung fever or galloping consumption.

In the case that does not yield to rest in bed, cough medicine buy patient medicines, various cough syrups, or tablets are often harmful; because they are often harmful, give you a feeling of security, while the other germs are making headway in developing.

Why is it that the only expression of sorrow, sympathy or respect made public in the United States is the boston—and that one from Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, of Oyster Bay, Nov. 14th, while none, as I have noticed, from President Franklin D. Roosevelt, of the proml. Southern, was upon it. Dr. Washington's whole life work was for the benefit of the South, and in bringing harmony among the whites and the blacks, he was often stricken with illness in New York his most anxious desire, he said, was to go immediately to the South to his home he loved so well. And should he die, his desire was to die in his Southern home. It is a remarkable fact that the better class of the whole white south placed a tremendous responsibility on the south—their ordinary emergencies patting him on his back and telling him to pacify and encourage the negroes to remain in the south—their birth place. That it was good to have a black soil; to get a home; he honest and industrious and improve their property by keeping it neat and clean, and cultivate a good opinion of the whites instead of contemptuous about segregation and discrimination. For this expression he has been criticized, but has been fortunate enough to have vindication come along so quickly and without indemnation, that it was considered facts to Here is a case, at least, in which publication is not in many instances. It not advanced here and should not be advanced anywhere that criticism of men of his standing, of his ability, of his stability, is always to be discouraged or represented when it is called forth by honest criticism. It is intended to be勇敢 criticism, not vicious criticism, but intended to be directly personal then it is misguided. Such advice as Dr. Washington gave the nieces of the South was highly appreciated and applauded by the best class of men. They also told them they lose a man highly esteemed and valued for his influence among his peers of the South, whom he always advises to remember that it was the best place for them. The Southern whites know well that no other class of laborers or domestics who for generations have served faithfully and obediently, without pay or compensation, and now have to be contented with whatever huge scale their employer舍 fits to pay. In my opinion, there was but one Booker T. Washington—he stood pre- of going out west to some gorgeous mate.
