This little nation is armed with 200,000 well-trained and well-armed fighters, can stop the German advance on the Suez canal and turn the tide for the Turco-Pentuini advance and save the Suez. The black and the yellow man will mix their blood if the greatest battles the world has seen can should this nation enter, as expected, like the probably the decisive struggle for the supremacy of the great war.

From the East will move thousands of Persians, as they have sworn their allegiance with the Germans. Meeting the thousands of Germans, they will seek to win them, and they will succeed they will be following the footsteps of the children of Israel. Just as Persia's aid must be had by the Aretons, Abyssinia's aid is absolutely necessary to win. The fate of Egypt, the supremacy of the entente or the central power, hangs in the balance.

The French will be to Bassora or Mesopotamia. The black troops are well armed, and Germany is the country that has furnished them with the weapons. Abyssinian has purchased from 800,000 to 1,000,000 men, most of which have been manufactured in Germany. She has 300,000 well-trained men which she has pledged to the poised Emperor has refused every chance to induce him on their side. The British, French and Italian nations have guaranteed independence of the boy's domain. Abyssinian has the great conflict.

I do not consider the amendments to the constitution as dead letter, but as fully effective it is enforced to the limit of federal authority. Whether the Republican party can or will be able to pass such laws as will make it utterly impossible to fully effect it is, of course, perfectly well known to you that in most of the southern states they have so framed their constitutions that they are so much in the way that hitherto there have been no plan through which the desired result could be attained. I believe, however, the Republican party will do what ever can be done that respect. I consider it a great wrong, as I have publicly declared many times.

DEMAND REWARD FOR REPUBLICAN LOYALTY Ohio Race Men Want Republicans to Send Ralph Tyler as Delegate to Chicago Convention—Conditions Bad. (Special to Chicago Defender). Columbus, O., Jan. 7.—The race boosters of Ohio are urging that one of their number be sent to the Republican Conference to delegate at-large. This is not for the delegate to creating friction but rather to assure harmony. The race has been loyal to the Republican and their reward. Ralph W. Tyler of Ohio and former Auditor of the Navy Department is spoken of as the most logical delegate in speaking of the case Mr. Tyler says: "The Republican with a far less race vote than Ohio, invariably sends one delegate-at-large and two to more district delegates. Committee recently reduced the south's delegate representation in the Republican convention and it was opposed by the south's deputy of the north or the south. The South's representation in Congress, based upon an assumed number of votes, milled the same and it seems to us to be inconsistent to begin reductions in the National conventions when the burden of the race is a rule would fall heavily on the race. Complains of Conditions. "There are 65,000 race voters in Ohio today. Our representation in state, county and municipal governments is practically nil. At least every party leader is from being communicated with our website, and we institute about one seventh of the total Republican vote in the state. Representation granted us, which is largely menial jobs, such as junior positions, is to be one-fourth of the total white Republicans. The aggregate of salaries drawn by colored men in state, county and municipal positions amounts to one-fourth of 1 per cent of the salaries drawn by white Republicans. "We were hopeful when the Moore-Barnes civil service law was enacted that its provision, making competitive examinations for subordinate positions, would be more efficient in the reason of their being able to pass examinations in open competition, but this hope was of short duration. The rule of the State Civil Service Commission, all of which number of units for 'experience', effectively raised the bar against the race." MRS. J. W.

MAYOR REVOKES THEATRE LICEN Detroit Executive Heeds P. of the People and Protects Honor of the City by the Excise of His Official Prerogative. ACTION COMMENDABLE. With No Interest Above the Law the City of Detroit Offers an Excellent Example of Justice and Fairness—No "Birth of a Nation." (Special to Chicago Defender.) Detroit, Mich., Jan. 7.—Three cheers for Mayor Marisa! and three cheers for Law and Order! It is to the credit of our government, whether city, state or national, who have worked to grow. Growing out of a protest which is universal, this noble man used the power vested in him as the people's protector of the city because of a jotorous playhouse that has especially acted in defiance of our laws. Says an editorial from the Free Press; "His reelection of Folly Theater license about which protector of obscenity about which protector of obscenity loud for weeks." The curse of slavery remains in the hearts of many and there are hundreds of men who would sell theaters. We are proud as we have sold the law we reign in Detroit with a Marx as mayor and we hope those elsewhere will take new challenges from the acts of our bold executive. The "Birth of a Nation" is a national disgrace, the fruits of slavery. PROVIDENT HOSPITAL GRADUATE IS AP- POINTED MATRON (Special to Chicago Defender.)

I—have made a special trip in and around Early County, view to getting first hand facts regarding the matter. The newspaper reports in that county during the past week, and I am in position to give the readers of the Chicago Defender the news about regarding the matter. The newspaper reports of also the fact that are considerably at variance with the facts. There is no question about Early County having been the scene of that event where the Negro people have taken an "eve for an eye and a tooth for a tooth" there can be no doubt. How Trouble Started. The whole matter grew out of the vicious and cruel treatment to which the Negro portion of the population of Early County had been subjected to of brutal overersers on plantations where Negroes were employed. It culminated in a brutal attack by Henry J. Villipage in a punterer attack, on one of the younger of Grandma and by a well-to-do and respectable farmer of Blakely, Ga. The news of the assault rapidly spread throughout the township and thus principally reside. The elder Goalsby and his friend visited Villipage and upbraided him for the vicious and brutal attack upon this son and brother. Villipage resented the attack and thus his trust gun, but before he could use it the Goalsby, who also were armed, got the drop and shot him dead. They and soon the news of his killing spread like wildlife throughout the entire county. PATRONS OF THEATER MADE PRISONERS. New Orleans, La., Jan. 7—Humiliation and everlasting covardine combine to make conditions here more hard to endure each day. The Jolly Theater is the only theater in the city that numbered the race are not only required to accept the "Buzzard Roost" for accommodation, which is inferior in every way in accommodation and service, to that given other patrons. The managers are that Jim Crow gallery you are actuallyhibited from leaving the theater until every white person has left the building. You must know what the excuse offered, you can hold, and until the managers are willing to bid you leave. The reason given is that it is dangerous for the members of the two groups to leave the building and without any foundation. Respectable Negroes must organize and demand courteous treatment from our would-be slave holders. We are not pristine and we cannot be brow-raising practice of bullies must stop. In fact the managers of this house ought not only keep that element in mind but should get a lot of burns and kicks to the ground. Get so low as to permit such treatment after paying out their hard-carrie money such treatment is really too good for them. Are you going to continue to be the target of bullying to be men? Let the ministers of N. Orleans begin a campaign against s and let the respectable ones amongst them. Use the example and send word to DOGS of the race and warn out of foxen.

BUSINESS LOSS IMMINENT Gossip About Patrons Who Use Cars Brings a Serious Fault—Enlightened Efforts Needed to Prevent Business Loss. There is an old proverb, "Silence is painful." And does this common severe rule apply to you? Complaint reaches us that people who have patronized taxicabs run by members of the race have often had decision to pass on the business to the drivers of machines have often mis- taken courtesy for license, and women who have used their cars have often had discrimination against them. Some drivers have attempted to acquire acquaintances made in the course of the business for a social means, and, again, they have used their cars to body their body, their business, and that of others. One instance we might mention: A young man and his sister used a certain car, common gossip in clubs and abuses the next day. Sometimes a driver will become familiar with customers just before they try to show them common courtesy. The above complaints are well founded and have come to us repeatedly, and show a wonderful lack of business prudence or common sense by those who are at fault. It is a serious annoyance and deserves attention. If the public is to be mistreated by these men who have a monopoly of the business on South State street, there will be other people who will gladly accept the handsome prize offered. People are beginning to use the yellow taxi as a means of protecting themselves against abuses already mentioned, which are a degree to our intelligence. If the stricter rule of business courtesy is not observed by our men in taxi business they might as well sell their cars, as public indignation will not long tolerate present conditions. SENATOR CUMMINS ON RACE QUESTION to allow the South to representation upon its population which includes the non-voting Negro men so long as their constitutions and laws are so adjusted as may be required by the Act. The Act is that until this injustice is repaired that representation in Congress should be made, and the Act is to be made, of upon the full population instead of the full population of the state, to consider it unjust down the representation of the South in our national government. The Act is not intended to be, however, a rule of which they belong, and I further enfite to control the policies of the people to which they belong, and I further believe that the South is not the State. If the Negroes vote in a election, the State is the heirs of the North. If the Negroes vote in a extension that there was a provision that there would be, the State should, that there would be, be southern states that at least would be debated ground in the South, and that the South would be under the Governor's (or, in some cases, the President) or other government order. In another letter, he noted, in the South, that the "Senators" were not against the Jones amendment to the agricultural extension/hall; The facts are not known, but the "Senators" were not there was a provision that there was a provision that the State should have had two or more agricultural colleges, the railstations of the states should be provided, and the State should have the appropriation. Senator Jones of Washington offered an amendment which he proposed to approve of the law relating to the "Senators" and, which had never been of any matter, value to the college for the purpose of the State's speech against the provision "on" the "Senators" that the legislature of the state to decide on the proposed amendment to the law for it was performed manifest that it is his own opinion, and that the college's amendment to decide on the matter of the State's speech at the time of the law, "indeed some impression, because during the course of my speech Senators have not been given the opportunity to be thought I was right, and sugg" ed instead of the Jones amendment it was so changed that it would require the State to make a change in the law. The College of the States and the Secretary of Agriculture, and he asked me what I thought of such a pro-government approach. The College of the State answered that such a provision should be better than the Jones amendment, and I still think so. It will do more to get the College of the State to understand the college for colored people than the Jones amendment. Shaffreth immediately offered that sort of an amendment to the "Senators" and the "Senators" would have a stricken out what I had already done. The College of the State, as the "Senators," and of course I think to which I had agreed, and the "Senators" would vote against the Jones amendment.

He is a father is a farmer in Albany and it was while wandering through the woods that borders the edge of the farm that young men conceived the idea of the beauty behind the paint.

Coming here spurred on by Tanner's works he has started out with a bright future but, as everyone who has seen his works in the highest terms of praise of them. Young Man Dies in Midnight Because a Number of Local Physicians Failed to Give Him Aid. Many citizens of Chicago are crying, don't get sick at night. This new sentient city is called the City of the Dr. Mr. Hooker, who lived at 35th and Forest avenue, which was caused by physicians of this city failing to answer a call when he was in jail. The doctors were called last week to come to his residence at night but every one of them called, another doctor calls at night, another said he had engagement, another said that because the man was unconscious there was no one to call. The sick man was alling with his threat and that he died from a hemorrhage. If the doctors of this city want patronage they can be more punctual in their calls at night.

These organized murders are free under the law, and there is no pretense of law-making power the government has to assert a legislative power to hinder or prevent mob activities. Anarchism for Law. These 45 American citizens were torn from the protection of the city, state and federal law, and were forced to them protection. They obeyed the organic law, "No citizen shall be deprived of life, liberty or pursuit of happiness without due process." They put to death by clamming mobs of irresponsible, ignorant, pagan, race hate, half starved cuttlefish claiming protection of the American flag. You cannot be starved to death by the poison of its deadly poison stenititic creeps into the national spirit, and woe is that hell to be with this serpent of death a savior, for protection has made with these the fury of their brute passions at will, like the winds that blow from one hemisphere to another free and unmolested? A civil war burns its men, and burns its men at stake is without question in a state of vital decay. Martys of 1915. Duty of Citizenship. Not until the citizens of this crime-curred nation awake to the deep responsibility that they owe to the human race, they will be able to throw off the yoke of lynch law and the spirit that engenders the spirit of Oklahoma that dared to face the mob and in its cringing, wolfish,矫魂 spirit. It was there that a thou-warded by women defied and honed citizens led by women defied and honed the number of qualifying, snacking cura who fed before them. Mobs are cowards and the Resolute and determined citizens realizing after valyly appealing to the law for their freedom feel hands under render them no against violence and murder armed themselves and organized for its defense, and Justice is mighty in the hands of honest citizens who will unyieldly spirit is curbed in Oklahoma. Oklahoma? Yes, Oklahoma and its brave women and men have broken the backbone of a lawless wave that has swept the country. In the heart of Hell they handed themselves together to die in defense of their homes, their wives, mothers, daughters and children in the name of Liberty and God! Not since the scene at the Appomattox Court House has there been a single incident in history that means as much to the race as was the stand of those brave men and women whose actions reflect the courage of the race. Thanks be to Heaven the race has resolved upon its only defense that will protect the home—fight! ARM YOURSELVES AND PIGHT TO MAINTAIN THE LAW! IT NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT! IT IS YOURS TO DEFEND! BE NOT LONGER THE PIGHT OF C3 MOBS: IT IS YOUR COUNTRY AND YOUR HOME AND YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO ARM YOURSELVES IN ITS OFFENSE! IF THE STATE AND NATIONAL GOVERNMENT WON'T STOP LYNCHING YOU CAN! AND IT IS YOUR DUTY Appeal to the Higher Law. Let not these martyrs die in vain while we as cowards stand. Awake! Arise! the fetters break! This is freedom's land. It is yours to save, the land of the brave from the spirit that cursed the slave. Jimenez legislators fill the halls of Congress, and seek to disfranchise you and your children, while mobs strike death to the spirit of manhood that is within you. When the mob organizes to burn your brother at the stake be prepared to meet out the penalty of death to him that would curse you, insult your flag and defame your country. Arm yourselves and fight! Make the United States as safe for you as it is for the white man. We need a country where every man is free from violence. Thanks be to God, Oklahoma leads the new way to Freedom!

(Special to Chicago Defender.) San Diego, Cal., Jan. 7—The American Giants won the California Winter League championship by defeating the Pantagines Christmas afternoon and Sunday. Both games were what one might call bumgings, for it was unquoted the last team was out that victory was won. Both teams were on the edge and Foster sent is old reliable Mister Wekwaro to the in the first. "Old Man Jinx worked to perform well when t the end of the nine innings was one one further away from the dog and beat any other team besides the Giants.

Condition: Of Field a Handicap to the Crack Half-back Who Drew Rounds of Applause by His Wonderful Playing—Westerners Rely on Straight Football. Pasadena, Cal., Jan. 17—Muddy football was on tap New Year's Day. Gen. Pluvius had his inning and his Friday soaked the field so that it is mudy. Some Smear. Smeared is correct. said ceremony of vindication took place in the mud. But it was not ordinary mud. It was high-grade, refined, coarsectic Pasadena mud. The easterners may feel themselves honored even if defeat. It is not very football team that has a chance to wallow around and accumulate four or five layers of Pasadena mud. It is the price of real estate in Pasadena. It is the brown athletes had at least $125,000 worth of mud clinging to them when they left the field. However, they will not be persecuted if it home with them. We are hospitalized not giving away any mud; not if we know it. No Whitewash. In getting shut out or skunked, Brown received what is technically known as a whitewash. This is present instance. This can be arranged in figure 5 speech. In the minds of those present, the event will finger long, not as a Whitewash, but a mud bath. The main impression on the game was that of being held by men of the best New England families dripping with rich, sticky mud. This, of course, was to the liking of the Washington athletes, who go to school under these conditions. Tactically, we trained in these parts which looked quite good enough to wallop brown, we borrowed a team from the State of Washington for the occasion, and in so doing made no mistake. The unpastel boys did a thorough and painstaking investigation, nothing to the imagination. On the way to help them loomed just about two touchdowns better than the Providence people. Straight Stuff. The Cascade athletes won mainly on straight lines, depending largely on a driving power that was Washington's superiority was evident during three-quarter of the combat. Only in the second quarter did Brown have the edge. During that time, the Providence team had the ball in Washington's territory, and they dropped down to the 4-yard line. Poor judgment on the part of Purdy by not calling on Pollard to carry the ball cost Brown a touchdown at this stage of the game. Dietz's men here dug their heels into the and held magnificently, considering that they were not equipped with skid chalng. This was Washington's only crisis, and having bridged it satisfactorily, they took fresh courage and drilled the ball down to the Brown line late in the third quarter. Washington was the first touchdown. Durham took the goal. This was followed by another instalment of victory, Dietz registering another touchdown after the ball had been smashed down the field, and Durham again repeating. In the opening quarter, honors leaned slightly toward Washington. Durham was in danger. Brown came back strong in second quarter, and came within a hop and jump of scoring. Field Bad for Pollard Pollard, the gentleman of color and ability, who plays left half for the New Englanders, hardly performed up to the advance noticees. Speed is one of his greatest assets, but the slippery field made it little use to him. Frequently he bogged down. He made some edifying gains, but never could get away for long runs.

Some will probably describe it as a sea of mud, but that is only little too strong. There was only about enough mud on the field to ill Lake Tahoe. Dad fair weather prevailed the crowd doubtless would have been much larger. As the umbrellas took up so much space that the umbrellas were packed in as closely as desired. As both were visiting teams, those in attendance were supposed to be neutral. For the most part it was a very classy crowd. The Brown squand was paid $7,500 to come to Pasadena to play a football game. Washington State was given scent expenses. The Brown team only had an attack for five minutes during the game. That was in the second quarter when the ball line extended to Washington's 10-yard line on the sidelines and Purdy, a 10-yard run by Brown, for penalty against Washington for interfering with the forward pass and a comeback to Andrews. But there the attack took off. Most of the time, however, the speedy Washington linemen were through the eastern line and holding onto the Brown backs before they could get started. Pollardy and slippery, always succeeded in attaining the westerners, but there were usually ten beers and the Brown line. On running back punts he was especially brilliant. But he could not get away. The Brown could not get away. The first half was plucky and stubborn, always stiffening at the critical moment. Brown never sighted the Washington goal through the rain during the last half. Pollard was ever present and always a pinching due to the West. But the little half back could never shake himself entirely loose. The Line-up. Washington State. Brown. Zimmerman. Weeks Cain. L.T.R.

The giant was Langford's master at the inner points of the game, a ninth-hitter boxer, whose experience as rising gladiator ends through nearly 14 years, made no attempt to evade the issue by hiding the fact that he knew I was being outpointed.

They were remember- entire 20 rounds, the Boston negro leap after Willis with bull dog tenacity, forcing the fighting as fast after he dropped his guard as when he was pickling Off-Willis blows coming in. At the time, he round, Langford was beaten, but not disgraced. There were no knuckle-bones, but, as must not be taken to mean that, there were no hard blows landed. There hard; was a second during the whole contes when mighty blows were not being ex- enanced in those which were few and short. Bottom, was out of o them. That the were no knuckle-bones can be attributed to the fact that both men were in remain- no condition. Never did Harry's fight as he fought that night. Only once during whole battle did he appear to be doomed to die. With him when Langford shook him with a stinging left hand mighty right cross to the jaw. Wills' knees to sag. Outside of spell, however, the local heavywave seemed one of the most confident f. of the world, and though there we other riders of the army, his stocky antagonist, he always walked to his corner with the bearing of old who was sure of victory. Seldom missing his punches, Wills peeked away at Langford's guard in that early rounds, sometimes raining ineffecively futilides on Langford's gloves and jaws, at but other times heating down the Eastern foot of the peppering Langford's face with left jaws and hooks and right crosses and uncrests. While in the clinches and the too-to-toe slugging bee, his own in the majority of case, some fought the over-coming Lan, a standstill and momentarily check advance. Langford could have made better showing if he had cared to w. him. But he could have kept covered for 20 rounds and probably would not have been outpointed so far. But Langford considered himself champion fighter of the heavyweights, and he was out to prove it. He had knocked Wills out once, and he was anxious to see Wills succeed, and though he did not accomplish his end, no test proved that it was through no fault of his own but solely because in the Wills of last night he met a greatly improved fighter from the Wills he had fought in the previous year and because the Wills of last night proved himself one of the greatest heavyweight fighters the ring has known in recent years. As has been said, the end of the twelfth round found Langford with a score of 116, the scores as far as Wills were concerned though he had been the aggressor throughout. At this stage of the game, Langford decided he had waited long enough to begin his real battle. So he be, in even faster than he did before, only he de of his attention t to blocking them.

Washington, a man from the same state. While he lived he wore a character that drew the admiration of many, a great hero, a beautiful until they would kiss the sunlight. Now he lies beside the great Douglas. Nations weep, mothers weep while those two Christian heroes slumber when those two Christian heroes slumber as not disturb his slumbers whilst he sleeps beneath the bow of the weeping willow. His arms are unnerved, but his eyes are bright in dark vaulted heroes of night. In it was a man of that intellectual ocean whose waves touched all the shores of human thought. Weep for the galant man, Virgil the poet, man, high on the road to fame moved he until Fate decreed his work was done. EDITORS MAIL DEFENDER PRAISED Jackson, Miss., Jan. 2, 1916. Mr. R. S.

People must co-operate with the doctors, nurses and health authorities in assisting to rid the community of more people sick today in the city of Chicago—and, in fact, in all of the large American cities—with influenza than in the past. We have an amount of this sickness and the large number of deaths resulting from this epidemic we preventable. This disease and its death must be prevented. In the future it must be prevented in the future if we hope to live up to our full physical column, influenza is last week in this column, influenza is a serious illness, and one disease that is often followed by serious and dire急思. To the nervous system, heart and mind. To the hope, hope—what are you going to do about it? In the first place, we hope you will not try to do certain things, such as try to eat your gripe tape; that you will not try to rid your gripe tape in bones, the chilly sensations, etc.—by filling your stomach full of whisky, either hot or cold. Alcoholic toddlers have never tried gripe tape, and the contrary it lowers the vital powers, it opens the pores and makes your gripe worse. Do not fill yourself up with rock candy, lined oil, glycerine, rum or gin, with nor cod liver oil. These things upset the stomach and make your condition worse. Avoid crowds. Do not go to church, do not visit your neighbors, nor your clubs, nor any social gatherings or organizations, while you are coughing, sneezing, blowing your nose, and thereby not to rid your gripe tape and thus making your case much worse. Fourth. Do not sneeze, hawk and spit in the cupidor of your home, on the floor or the sidwalks, thus distributing the infection to the health and lives of others. But, on the contrary, you should use sanitary paper napkins or pieces of cloth, which should be used to wipe your hands in the stove or furnace. If you the gripe you should avoid kissing or coughing, or sneezing in the face of others, because the germs of gripe are carrion, and the gripe can cause habit. One should turn his face aside when coming in contact with others if he must cough or sneeze, so as not to dislodge the germs and mucus and secretions from the nose, thereby because these cavities often contain thousands of dangerous germs. What Are You Going to Do About the Grunge? We would advise that you eschew ca- and heavy dieting and use plenty of ice for hot soups, broths, hot lemonade, or chocolate, etc. Also a cocoa diet, such tream of wheat, oatmeal and cream of milk, custards, baked ar- ies, soft boiled eggs.
