Yet before entering upon that campaign, let us consider the relation which the Colored man sustains to the Republican party. Dr. William A. Sinclair in his book, "The Aftermath of Slavery," in analyzing the race vote, says: "An examination of the returns will provide a new view that the Xegre's vote defeated Mr. Bryan and elected Mr. McKinley as President of the United States." Race Elected McKinley. "These are the facts: California gave Mr. McKinley eight electoral votes by 2,707. They gave Mr. McKinley a 5,711 Colored voters. "Delaware gave Mr. McKinley three electoral votes by 3,620 majority, but Delaware has 5,374 Colored voters. Indiana gave Mr. McKinley fifteen electoral votes by 18,186 Colored voters. Kentucky gave Mr. McKinley twelve electoral votes by 281 majority, but Kentucky has 74,723 Colored voters. Maryland gave Mr. McKinley eight electoral votes by 22,241 majority, but Maryland has 60,166 Colored voters. West Virginia gave Mr. McKinley six electoral votes by 11,457 majority, but West Virginia has 14,726 Colored voters. These six states gave Mr. McKinley 52 electoral votes. Vote a Deciding Factor. "There can be no doubt of the Colored vote being the deciding factor in each of these states, as that vote outnumbered the majority in each state, and the Colored vote is practically wholly Republican. If this vote were suppressed in the United States, it would be wiped out in much if it were 52 votes were subtracted from the 271 electoral votes which Mr. McKinley received it would leave him 219. If these 52 votes be added to the 176 electoral votes cast for Mr. Bryan it would give the 257 electoral votes a majority of nine over Mr. McKinley, and he would have been elected President." "The evidence seems thus conclusive that, in the most exciting campaign of a generation, a campaign involving dilemma, the choice of the nation, the nation, and with it, every business."

A RESOLUTION OFFERED TO BE PRESENTED TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE. In as much as the perpetuity of our free institutions and the re- sults of democracy depend directly upon equality of representation as be- came disproportionate, whereas existing laws of several as the same are administered, have resulted in granting to some states the right to disproportionate senta- tion in Congress and the electoral college, we pledge to adopt a constitution to equalize the represen- tation of all states in Congress and in the electoral college. E. H. WRIGHT, Chairman, Chicago, Ill. GEORGE H. WHITE, Secy. Philadelphia, Pa. The country and the race is passing through one of the greatest and most critical periods of its history. The warring Europe that is raining that great continent of its life and treasure has been unleashed. When this war is over the foundations of European society and the trade and commerce of the world will be reconstructed upon a new basis of democracy. This new era offers to the Ameri-ger people and the Race the choice of a greater future or a smaller sphere in the future. The conflicts of factions of the world. The country is ready for the doctrine that this nation should be prepared, not only to maintain the respect and the proper protection of its citizens abroad but it must be prepared by solidarity of domestic sympathy and concord that shall weld all its people together to a common bond of union in order that the nation may maintain its leadership in democracy at the head of the nations of the world. Chance to Advance. In this new view the Race has the greatest opportunity to advance their interest and standing in the American nation which has come to them in the past quarter of a century. The Negro of the nation has come to them in the past lot box and with it the power to defend himself in the courts and in the social and industrial walks of American life. The present representation in the Republican National Convention is less than it has ever been in the history of enlightenment and race. Racial voters in Virginia have no voice in the Republican Party of the Nation and their strength with the exception of Georgia and Mississippi and South Carolina has been almost completely anthilochic in the nominating councils of the Republican party of the nation and are unless some change for the better shall occur within the near future he will entirely vanish in the Republican party of the South and with it will go all power political and social power to protect his life liberty through the peaceful process of the law. One hopeful sign has attended this process of the Negro's elimination from public affairs in the South and that is that he has been gaining political power and solidarity in the great middle and northern states. Notwithstanding this hopeful sign, the Negro of the nation is still an infant in politics. His youthful and tiny hands have not as yet been trained to work in political unity and concord in politics is the only effective means known to the success of political and civil liberty. Losses in South. In Mississippi, where the Race population exceeds the population in the entire state, the Racism man in the Republican party is only able to send five delegates to the Republican National Convention. the party councils, owe great State of Georgia with their support, a public of electing a Negro for as a member of the Nation Committee, the highest pol- tionary党 in the party National Congress. In the State of South six Race delegates out of eleven is unable to mame number as it is member of the publican Committee. This mands urgent and limne calls for a leadership bask and kindliness years. It calls for natenal rights of man and that spirit which cries cerity or give me death." New Leaders It demands a leadership the conscience and to Their organization and unproprietary spirit and solidarity strike out until the prejudice of the Saxon will be crimson with the blood of brave men who love their liberty more than they pride their lives. In this special situation as it is now developing there is a special demand laid upon the Negro who has a right to vote in the North and that demand is that they shall unify their forces and send men to the Senate, to the House of Representatives and to the White House who will see to it that the Black citizens of the South shall have the rights to which the Constitution has guaranteed them. It is the duty of the North, with his freedom of speech, with his freedom of opportunity and with his increasing political power to thrill the hearts of the nation with the leadership that will bring every Negro man to the firing line when the occasion arises for the advancement and protection of his Race.

He also disclose the fact that the Negro vote in Illinois, Indiana, New York, Ohio and Florida was contested and ginocratic efforts have been being made to destroy it. If it had been fully suppressed throughout the state, south would have defeated Grant in 1865, Hayes in 1876, Garfield in 1880, Harrison in 1888 and McKinley in 1896." Us. It is evident that the republican party has always relied upon these for the execution of any of Mr. Root's proposed policies involves the Colored citizen. National preparedness calls for the Negro vote in all states. Colored worker. Americanism and the interests and ideals of the Race citizen—are one. Root was disturbed and indignant over the killing of sixteen American murders in an offensive war waged by the Negro. Root thinks of the lynching in Georgia of sixteen black American citizens within the first four weeks of this No Right to Interfere with Mexico. Mr. Root proposes to stop the murder of American citizens in Mexico (over which the United States does not exercise sovereignty). What does Mr. Root and the Republican party propose to do about the wholesale lynching of American citizens in states (over which the United States does exercise sovereignty)? Within the last thirty years Colored men have been lynched at the rate of one hundred per year.) Mr. Root stands for the protection of American property and American rights—whether in Mexico or on the high seas. What do Mr. Root and the Republican party propose to do about the burning of Colored men's property and its confection by segregation, ordinances, which prevent Colored men's use of their property and that peaceful enjoyment of same which the constitution guarantees? More issue which is Inseparably linked with all else, viz.: Political equality in the United States. What do Mr. Root and the Republican party think of the disfranchisement of the North and West by this Bourbon rotten borough system here submitted? The following table and comment are taken from The Crisis: "Take, for instance, the Presidential election of 1912 and let us compare South Carolina and Massachusetts, two hereditary electors Massachusetts cast $48,156 votes. South Carolina cast only $50,314 votes, but for these she sent nine electors to the electoral college. This means that the New Englander's one" To this we may add the following 5 electors: New Jersey cast 121,532 votes for her. New Jersey cast 423,534 votes for her. Louisiana cast 79,372 votes had 10 electors. Louisiana island casting 77,624 votes had 5 electors. coon casting 131,640 votes had 5 Mississippi each had 10 usaas each voted for hers.

Texas National Guardsmen Refused to Join Colors When Called, Yet Can Find Time to Lynch Black Men. Texas, the original home of the manhunter, librarian and lynch fund, is at the center of a defense struggle the trial of a bunch of so-called national guardsmen, "white," who have brought the defense grievance to humanity, that objected to the use of the trial and the flag they are supposed to represent and to be willing to defend. Here they face a firing trial for an offense the conviction for which may mean death by a firing squad, and in this case it is hoped that the defense will prevail. The crime penalty, Floyd P. Gibbons, the special correspondent, who is on the spot, and the following to say in the Chicago Times, "Fourteen men from the regular and civilian military forces of the United States have been on an exemplary demonstration of the trust that national guard organizations of the southern states constitute a dangerous environment for the "boy who was not born." The fourteen men are members of the court-martial which has been ordered by President Wilson to place in trial the Texas national guardsmen who refused to muster into the regular army service when the president on the death date called up the country of three states to respond for duty on the Mexican border. The cases promise to be of great interest to the thousands of national guardmen in every state, particularly if there are any among them who enlisted for the reason they looked well in uniform or received a ten-days' vacation on pay every year at the expense of the government. The government order directing the court-martial was issued at Washington on May 26, under Section 7 of the act of Jan. 21, 196, entitled "An Act to Promote the Efficiency of the Militia and for Other Purposes," and summons to trial these members of the organized militia of the American State of having called forth to present the consequences for muster into the service of the United States to defend the United States from further aggressions from Mexico under a call of the President, refused to present themselves for such muster. The legislative authority of the act under which the court-martial has been called inces no limitations on the punishment. The act and the court-martial and the offense have analogies in the military and the law. The offense of worry. In 1884 there was the "dert act," and for availing it there was only permission to be a court-martial army officer of the brief that the latter which the present court-martial has been called and the national conditions existent in the military's call to master place as much power as possible of the court-martial here. The offense of the service believe that strict measures will not only enable the morale of the militia but will be the means of producing a greater and more effective army. The service谇ary. For Elion Watson Winship, judge advocate of the United States army, who is a been designated to prosecute "crises," is believed to have come with an expression which will permit the court-martial which used unharmed by local political influence. Many of the guardians who at first refused to sign the regular muster have returned to San Antonio with changed clothes and worn on duty at various joints along the front of their home towns. They have all been accused of the turdy correction of the original blunder does not make them immune from the President's call.

THE CAM GO Members of the Race Find It. Hard to Get Waited on; White People Have Begun to Notice It and Papers Comment on Same. It has been well known that Marshall Field & Co., although considered as the world's greatest department store, had a daughter, the daughter of the founder of the store fell in love with his cochairman, and after the affair had been disbanded, he came to a child, it is alleged, and since then the family has been against our race. It will well be remembered that the son of the family have been shot in the red light district. Many of their customers have been members of the race, however, to be waited on and that the clerks are indifferent, complaining. The clerks are ignored. The Defender sent two indies. DEFENDER AGENT ENTERTAINS WOMEN 一 down to investigate. One was so fair that they could not tell that any African was just the opposite. The first visitor was the main door and the doorwalker told her that the article would be moved later. Going out of the side of the internet moment after moment, she bequeathed the honor, Standing there for several moments the Miss A. was waited upon.

Standing for no clerk approached Miss B. perked up. The same two hades went to the other part of the store. Miss A. was again served, but Miss B. stood there, all the charges from this office to him; he orders from this office to his host, they would carry the affair, she sought a man whom the clerks called Mr. Walter or Wallace; he said he would find her old office. He was here for the first time, and never referred for, but, thirty, minutes. Seeing that she was getting provoked he said, "Have you been standing here all this time?" Miss A. was waiting and timing the affair. Mr. Walter was sent to the counter was not ignored. The clerks going around the other side and there engaging in a conversation with other clerks. He went to the floorwalker and was informed that he had to expect the clerks to hurry, as it was warned. He was very pretty hard. So notable has this state of affairs become that we print the following from a local white journal: Marshall Field's Draw Drastic "Color Lining" The Colored population of Chicago was handed a severe shock this week by an order issued from the management's office at Marshall Field's that this class of "indifference" whenever they made their appearance as prospective buyers on the main floor or above and were to be directed to the basement by all sales-persons as the most likely place there they could find. Embedded in the same order were the directions to the help in the basement to show Colored patrons "instruction" and the fact that their trade was not desired. It is particularly noteworthy that the order was not put in the form of writing but was carried by a special messenger to each one of the department heads. GOOD WORK, BOYS. Hon.

OLN EXTENSION UNIVERSITY WOMEN'S CLUBS MEET (Continued from page 1.) and the splendid work which had been accomplished by them. Committee Reports. At 3 p.m., the meeting was called on order. The report of the standard committee were made. Mrs. Webster, an education, reported a contest to be given at St. Mark's A. M. E. church July 23rd. A prize of $100 is offered to the woman composing the best paper on the subject: "The Colored Women's Contribution to the New Era." In March, Last Fifty Years." The meeting was reported a lack of interest in the club in the Mother's meetings at the Phyllis Wheatley Home. She wanted some moth-ed to compel the clubs to send a representative to hear lectures given there-part of the children. Rev. Mrs. Stewart, a of Evanston, Ill., was the first member she said the lectures were all right their place, but it takes a mother who has successfully raised and handled live children to give such advice, as theories that are given by women who have only had the other children. Not having much weight. Mrs. A. M. E. had a native conditions, gave a brief meeting the hard struggle the women had in gaining the ballot. She urged upon them to make a good showing in the parade, as it was the common belief among the men in power that the women did not want to be given a good surprise to the Federation was a $20.00 bamee presented by her for the parade of women for equal suffrage. A Guest of Honor. Mime, Victoria Clay-Hill, St. Louis, Mo., assistant secretary of civic conditions, was introduced. She gave her extinction convention where a great many Southern white women were present. The convention soon gave her and the rest of the white equal suffrage convention regardless of color. Mime, Haley also gave her experience of riding a Pullman, the institution's first woman theater was suggested as a social center of amusement for our boys and girls, but committee found things contrary to the institution's plan to accept it. The committee also reported an investigation on segregation in the theater management that the reason the white children have white teachers and the Colored children in Colored teacher was concerned that these conditions to learn classic dancing and the Colored insisted on learning rattle dance, and that concerned that these conditions be looked into as a way to home and its inmates.

The meeting at Appomattox Club on Tuesday night was an epoch-making occasion for the Race. There was the Hon. E. II. Wright and the Hon. Charles Cottrell and Hon. Clarence Houston and others with the legal knowledge and political experience to put in form most intelligently and comprehensively the desires of this people to reduce the representation of Southern Congressman where members of the House are not allowed to vote and the same in the Electoral college. This meeting was the result of the speech making at the banquet on Monday night. While the committee was preparing the resolution which appears in this paper, Hon. B. F. Mosley presided with Morris Lewis, secretary, some very fine speeches were delivered on Race questions. On many of the issues several spoke who were not prepared and had but little to note that helped the Race or the occasion. When the committee reported, every one favoured it except Hon. A. N. Johnson, Nayville, Tenn., but with the timely and ably addresses of Messrs. Cottrell and Wright, Mr. Johnson saw the light and the resolution was passed unanimously. The following committee was appointed to go before the Committee on Resolutions before the National Republican Convention to present the resolution of the Committee on Resolutions Wright, II; Chas. Cottrell, Ohio; Dr. V. G. Mason, Alabama; Major R. R. George, Alabama; D. K. Calhoun, Alabama; Editor Abbott, Illinois; Chas. Hinton, New Jersey; Oscar H. Waters, New York; George H.

Henry Green.) Brooklyn, N. Y., June 3. — The story of the Twenty-second (Fourth) and last installment: With the house committee settled, the work of enlarging the membership of the Twenty-second Assembly District Colored Republican League went on. The news of the meeting of the twenty-second cities of the charter members of this second club asserted themselves. Such men as Sam Rangan and Walter Sherman, who were responsible for many new faces in the organization, as well as Marro Hal-le-Moula, Creggs, two more faithful members of the Congress, and hearty workmen and diary-this is the type of men this Colored Republican League opened with. With such men how could the thing fall? Soon the house at 751 Belmont avenue became much too small to comfortably hold its members. The house was decided to rent the present large and two quarters at 830 Belmont avenue, and to this place the organization at the age of two years moved in December, 1915. Some alterations were made in this place to properly fit the house for clubrooms. The building was built in the style of the other which is to be found a pool table, with ample sitting room for spectators. This pool table has been one of the most popular attractions the club has to offer since coming into its new home. The next floor of the building is a large assembly room, the second room, the third room, the president, and kitchen. The top floor is rented to one of the club members. With its large, alny rooms, comfortably and tastefully furnished, this club offers to the Race men of East New York one of the most attractive propositions for the public to be held. The club, in the case of the clean, legitimate pleasure, ever held out to them in Brooklyn. Every Race man of good character who is an enrolled Republican is eligible to membership and will be gladly welcomed into the club. This ends the story of the Twenty-second Assembly District Colored Republican League. East New York News. Mr. Edward Brock of 440 Cleveland street left the city recently for the Cuts-kills to recuperate. Mr. Brock has been in poor health for some time and it is hoped by his many friends that he will have an early recovery. Mr. Brock holds a responsible position with the Standard City Company, New York City. Mrs. Walter Clark of 513 Cleveland street, who has been on the sick list for the past month, is now convalescent. Counselor Eugene J. Hoyne of Jersey City was the question of Mr. Daniel Chisolm, circulation manager of the Colored America, can Review, and Sunday. Wood Hodge, formerly of the downtown section of Brooklyn, has moved to 521 New Lots road and was a visitor at the Republican League last Sunday. The Twenty-second Assembly District League will be entertained by the Clef Club of New York City on Saturday evening, June 10, at its clubhouse, 530 Belmont Avenue. We invite all of our members to present. Miss Ellen Grant of 500 Shepherd Avenue has turned to the city after a three months' tour of the Sunny South, stopping at the following cities: Charlotte, N. C.; St. Matnews, Columbia and Orangeburg, S. C. R. E. Carrington, alternate from the twenty-first district (Harlem), New CIRCUS IN TOWN York, to the convention at Chicago, was a visitor at the Republican League host Sunday, and left Monday morning for St. BERNHAM, 51 St. BERNHAM P. E. Church will be held at Dancer's Park, Jamaica and Drew avenues, Richmond Hill, Long Island, on Friday. St. BERNHAM P. E. Church will be distributed later. * * All of the Race people of East New York should co-operate with the representative of this paper and be present at the large and as prominent as any other section of Brooklyn. You can do this by visiting the agent's home, 200 Berlin street, or give them to the boy who delivers your paper on Saturday. This is the only day of the benefit of East New York rosters, the program rendered last Sunday at St. BERNHAM P. E. Church; on first class, as an adult. A large and appreciative crowd attended. O d Fellows Celebrate. On Tuesday, May 30 (Memorial day), there occurred in New York City a parade commemorating the seventy-third anniversary of the institution of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows in the state of New York and America by the various lodges and households in New York City and vicinity. Over 5,000 men and about 1,500 women were in line. After the parade, which passed along the principal streets of Harlem, a competitive drill was held at Palace Casino. This drill was demonstrated by some of the companies of the Sixteenth Regiment, New York Patrifiche (one of the high branches of Old Fellowship), and was reviewed by Colonel Thomas E. Jackson, Porty-seventh Infantry, N. G. N. Y.; Lieutenant E. McKinnon, Front, Seventh Infantry, N. G. N. Y., and Colonel Harry J. Edwards, calef of staff of the Fairfield, of America. In the evening a grand reception and dance was held. Major R. C. Wendell, chief of the Race branch of the boy scouts in America, was chief marshal. Among the East New Yorkers in line were Mr. Joseph Stewart, P. N. F., marching in the P. N. F. division, and Charles T. Magill, S. to N. G., who was marching with J. R. Magill Lodge No. 7762. Friendship Baptist Rally. The Friendship Baptist Church, 417 Elton Street, of which the Rev. W. F. Bowlin is pastor, held its second grand rally Sunday, May 25. The receipts of the day were $166.25, which will be applied toward paying the mortgage indebtedness of the church property. Much credit is due the faithful few willing workers of the church who, in face of much discouraging crittledia, have determined to erect a suitable building on the spot where they are now worshiping. The pastor and officers desire to express their hearty thanks to the following members and friends who so nobly responded to the call: The Helping Hand Club, of which Mrs. Betty M. Payne is president, contributed the sum of $20; Mr. John A. Legan, $14; Mr. Morris Carter, $12.25; Rev. W. F. Bowdin, $10; Mr. W. H. Pen-berry, $0; Mr. Wade Wormley, $10; Mr. M. R.

Joseph of God, the American Christian, the 6, under the auspices of the Baptist Young People's Union connected with that church. Prominent men in every walk of life of Greater New York were present to the service. The Rev. John J. D. of St. Philip's, D.C., was a D.C. Christian. The post-twenty-four years' Rev. William M. Moss, pastor of Concord Baptist Church, netted as master of ceremonies and introduced such prominent men to the church. The Rev. John J. D. of St. Philip's P. E. Church; Counselor Iutus L.

Jones of Kansas City, Kan., delivered a very fine sermon at the Baptist Church on last Wednesday night. "We are glad to see R. B. Brackeen's son at home from school."

Johnson was a delegate to the general conference which met at Saratoga Springs, N. Y. He reports a very successful term—in fact, the best ever had. The farmers are all busy now chopping their cotton.

Frank Thorne, the immune right of Dr. G. Frank Thorne, the prominent member of Golden Gate Lodge of Masons, with two members of a blind man, by a friend with the other two members with locked arms.

IOWA FEDERATION OF WOMEN'S CLUBS MEETS PAGE SEVEN LYNCHED d of Dead Woman; se Washington Still Never Did It;" Will d Hang the Guilty t an Innocent Boy red? Business men, ministers and Christians. With a chain around his neck, they set fire to his body and 15,000 people witnessed the scene. It was a disgrace to hell, let alone this city. Now, after this innocent boy has been murdered, fingers cut off and head severed from his head, the truth has come to light that this woman's husband is the person of the race are not ashamed to speak out against lynchings when it is proven that nine cases out of ten, the Race man accused is innocent. Now that this white man, according to report, murdered his wife, not one word has been sent to the daily papers; not one word has gone out to the Associated Press. The crime snells so with murder and is so disgraceful to the white race that it has not the conscience to say a word except to it, but their conscience never pricks it. But the案情 is a horrible deed against a black man, the guilty or not guilty. How long are the white culture of the South going to stand for such bestial cruelty? Is it going to continue to indulge in an orgy of passion? Surely it is time for Texas and other southern states to cease their lynchings and hangings and take a new stand of his own. The crime of this white man should be the only paper. The Chicago Defender was the only paper that started the boy was innocent. Such a disgraceful hanging would not be tolerated in such civilized countries as Germany, England, Japan or countries in Africa. BUYS NEW AUTO. MONUMENT UNVEILED Columbia, Mo.

WHAT WE WANT and what we get in many instances is quite different, still that does not hinder us from asking for what we want and insisting as forcibly as possible on getting it. Every four years we must go over the same routine work of buttonholing the committees and the delegates who have to do with the nominating of a presidential candidate, begging, and as a last resort, threatening them that the support of the race will be withhold unless a plank is put in their platform declaring for Negro rights and against any state legislation inimical to the principles of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments. In the past from every party save the Democratic party we have met with more or less success, and while we have not received as much as we expected or deserved, we have not been overlooked entirely. The Negro vote cuts an important figure in all elections above the Mason and Dixon, especially is this true in national politics. So it behooves the party that expects to win to cater for our good will and support. It is a foregone conclusion that the Democrats have forever lost our votes and they can thank Mr. Vilson, Vardiman, Hoke Smith, Ben Tillman and other leading lights in the party for the loss. The average Democrat because he is ignorant will say they do not want the Negro vote, that theirs is a white man's barty, and a lot of similar rot. It is simply a question of sour grapes; the solid South means solid Democracy, and carrying it further, it means solid confederacy. The feeling against the North and any cause if champions is as strong today as it was some fifty years ago. The present administration has done much to heighten this feeling, has done much to widen the channel between the two sections of the country. The Negro wasn't the bone of contention primarily but he makes a good target now, so the shots are aimed at him directly with the hope that they will glance off and hit a few "doe-faced" Northerners. It isn't ungratefulfulness to say that the North left their work unfinished even after the last human being was set free. There was and is today a moral responsibility they should assume, a protectorate over a people who are emerging from the darkness into the light and who are still beset by the same enemy that crushed them for hundreds of years. The North in trying to forget that the South attempted to disrupt the Union, extends the olive branch of peace too far. Their motive is misunderstood and construed to mean an acknowledgment of their error. The North must awaken to the fact that it is absolutely necessary to hold the whip hand if they would keep this Union together. With the Democrats in office, the South is in the saddle and the country is going to the eternal bow-wows. Are we to have another four years of it? VOCATIONAL TRAINING TUSKEGEE STARTED IT and the whole country is taking it up. For years educators have been teaching our youth to use their brain, which, of course, is very essential, but how much more essential it is to teach the brain and the hand to work in unison. Hundreds of college and university failures are thrust upon the world at every commencement—men and women who know so much theory the practical end can get no foothold are handcapped at the very beginning. We hear of the self-made man who climbed to fame and fortune and attributes his success to luck, forgetting that the self-made man is usually a chap without even the ordinary financial backing, and one who must depend on his hands to feed his brain. Today we find before Congress a bill for the aid of vocational education which provides for a federal subsidy of $1,700,000 at the start, increasing to a maximum of $7,200,000 in 1923-4, to be divided among salaries for agricultural teachers and commercial and industrial teachers, the training of teachers for vocational work, the administrative needs of the federal board of vocational education, and investigations and studies. There is but one string to this bill, and that is, in order to receive federal aid, a state must work out a definite plan of administration including minimum requirements in teaching and equipment, and must raise a dollar locally for every dollar received from the national treasury. This condition is not hard to meet and no doubt every state will take advantage of the government's offer. When the plan gets in full working order and the people who are to be directly benefited get into the spirit of the thing, a higher appreciation—if that is possible—will be had for Tuskegee and its founder, who gave to the world this concrete demonstration of the advantages of vocational training. FOLLOWING FADS. RARLY LY LU. A MAN BE FOUND who follows the extreme fads in the matter of clothes, while on the other hand it is hard to find a woman who moves in the social swim who does not attempt as far as her means will permit, to keep up with the latest modes. It matters not how ridiculous the style is or how unbecoming if the pace is set, she must follow blindly. Shorter skirts and shorter stockings for women this summer is to be the rule, according to the dictates of the National Association of Garment Manufacturers. Why women who already have their skirts half way to their knees should demand them shorter and at the same time demand stockings almost as short as men's half nose, is beyond the range of mere man to solve. The discouraging feature about the whole matter is that the older women—women who are supposed to have reached the age of discretion and beyond the pale of faddism—are the greatest offenders. It is hardly necessary to expose so much of one's form to be attractive. The woman dressed modestly yet becomingly is far more attractive to the average person of good sense. What can we expect of our young girls when such an example is set before them but immodesty and boldness? It is time to call a halt on this Mother Eve style of dress and get back to the modest garb worn by what we are pleased to term the old-fashioned girl. SOME JUSTICE. A SMALL EDITION OF "WEBSTER" says, "Justice—equity, right." The "unbridged" carries the definition a little farther, but the small one will do for ordinary use, so we intend to buy an even dozen and present them with our compliments to the members of a jury who recently rendered a unique verdict in the case of a man held for murder in a little Southern town. The prisoner was charged with having killed two people—his wife and her paramour. He pleaded guilty to the charge and under the circumstances would have received some sort of consideration from any self-respecting jury in any other part of the United States, but, as was previously stated, this happened "down yonder," so the twelve wise "crackers" brought in a dict which established him from blame in killing It wo such to know what kind of a brain could conceive ve men degenerate? Or are they steeped their brain only thing from the angle? s even of it TO THE PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE "No Citizen, Whatever Race, Color or Creed Is Safe Where Justice Sleeps and Anarchy Reigns and Where the Law Is Openly Defied." Davin O 1916 Shall the American Republic continue to allow the open defiance of their laws and utter disregard for their citizens who have laid down their lives "that this country shall not perish from the earth"? Shall the American Republic be pointed at with scorn by the foreign powers as a barbarous nation? If our race is good enough to give you our votes, then as American citizens WE DEMAND PROTECTION from these murderers, even if the ENTIRE SOUTH MUST BE PLACED UNDER MARTIAL LAW. Why Mexico? Why bother about Germany or Japan? No civilized nation has disgraced itself with the above scenes in the past fifty years. "Let he that is unclean cast the first stone." Stop, Mr. Candidate, look, listen, THEN, for the sake of fourteen million anguished souls, ACT. know full well, but is not the very closest thing to our heart—MOTHERS, WIVES, SWEETHEARTS—to be guarded even at the risk OF OUR OWN LIVES? Where are the RACE MEN of the South? REGISTERING IN OKLAHOMA A MUSKOGEE PAPER SAYS, "No white man who could show that he was entitled to registration was denied a certificate. All the trouble came with the Negroes. 'Uncle Bill' Herring, Clem Moran's successor in South Second Street, where there are scores of Negroes, had his hands full throughout the day turning down Negroes who applied for registration. It was said one reason for Moran's resignation was that he exercised too great a degree of liberality in registering Negroes. 'Uncle Bill', however, drew the line on them. They were told there was no use in making any effort to register for they simply would not be registered." The gang is in power and regardless of the law they intend to run things to suit themselves. The "Jim Crow" law was declared unconstitutional in that state. Suppose it is, they steam roller everything they want anyway. However, that does not mean that the colored man should consider the case hopeless and resign himself to his fate. Not by a jung full. It is just the time to roll up your sleeves and fight as long as you have a leg to stand on. Quitters never accomplish anything. The men in Oklahoma have made a record as fighters; let them keep the good work up and show this "Uncle Bill" two can play at the same game. There are worse states than Oklahoma but we cannot think of them at this time. WACO GETTING ITS REWARD IT IS AS IMPOSSIBLE for a city as it is for an individual to dodge the praise or condemnation of the people throughout the country. The burning of a boy by a Waco, Tex., mob in the presence of 15,000 people is a stain that years cannot eradicate. The real offense was not against the victim nor against the law. The victim himself had been condemned to death and would have been lawfully executed and perhaps the form of execution made little difference so far as he was concerned. "The law" is a vague abstraction. Crimes are not "offenses against law." They are offenses against people. And the real offense of that Waco atroctly was, as usual, committed against the people responsible for it. It was those 15,000 supposedly respectable and normal human beings perpetrating—or permitting—a crime against themselves. In holding ceremonies around a monument in commemoration of a great man, the celebrants are not honoring him; they are only honoring themselves. The tributes they pay are really paid to their own noble qualities. Similarly the mob that lynches a man, as in the Waco case, dishonors only itself, burns its own reputation. It is the brutalizing effect of lynchings on the people who commit or tolerate the them that justifies their deepest condemnation. LILY WHITES GRUMBLE. THE BLACK AND TANS and the Lily Whites from Louisiana brought their fight back to Chicago to be settled by the National Republication committee who accommodated them by settling it on the fifty-fifty basis, which was not satisfactory to either side, but it was final and had to be accepted. The "Lily Whites" declared to the committee that the only salvation for the Republican party in the South is to "remove from it the stain of Negro domination." In this way only, they argued, can the "solid South" upon which the Democrats rely, be broken. What a bugbear is this Negro domination. The white South cannot sleep soundly nights for fear of waking up in the morning and find infuri the colored man had eased into some position other than that of janitor. There is little difference between the "Lily White" Republicans and the "solid South Democrats." Both are so steeped in prejudice and are so crooked they wouldn't recognize fair play and honesty if they met it face to face. The National Republican committee will give them little comfort, and it is well that they expect the loyal support of the better class of Northern peas. WE ever cause but tends to prolong the struggle by making them just that much more fortified. War means a survival of the fittest, and the end will only come when one side or the other gives in or is completely crushed. American manufacturers are reaping rich harvests by furnishing the warring factions with munitions and other necessities. It is human nature to profit by the other fellow's loss, but it isn't Christian like and we are not practicing what we preach. CHICAGOANS never do things by halves. The preparedness parade far outstripped any similar demonstration given in this country and showed beyond a doubt that the sentiment of the people of the "Windy City" was strong for making hay while the sun shines. CARRANZA has been saying some nasty things to Uncle Sam, but as the latter has a Mr. Wilson for a legal adviser, and Mr. Wilson is too busy writing notes to bother with any country larger than Haiti, the matter has been laid on the table. RATHER THAN HAVE THE POSITION OR VICE-PRESIDENT go begging, we modestly suggest that it be tendered our old friend, Hona Beauregard F. Mosely, who has the reputation of doing things and doing them right. WONDER WHAT TEDDY WOULD SAY if he knew that a man over on Crawford Avenue had a Bohemian flag flying over an American flag on top of his home? Maybe we couldn't print it, so let's not ask him. THE SMALL BOY has begun to count the days until vacation time and the poor, tired mother is doing the same thing. Vacation for one means work and plenty of it for the other. JACK JOHNSON has opened a boxing academy in Madrid, Spain, and has for one of his patrons King Alfonso. Nothing comes too high for Jack. WHOEVER IS NOMINATED, let it be understood right now if they are on the Republican ticket we are with them. We Must Have a Judge! The Women Must Come Again and Put the Race on the Map Here in Chicago—Like the Women of the South They Must Save the Honor of the Race. WOMEN OF THE RACE!! When you received your ballot last year you went right into doing the things that the poor, weak-kneed, liquor-soaked, pudding-headed men could not do, and that is to elect an alderman. When you got the ballot you put one over, and thereby placing your race on equality with other races in our city's melting pot. Seven or eight years ago we men (?) tried to get a judge, but fall and failed because we had such a low type of rascals and whisky head; the head of things; men who did not give a RAP—since they were ee by—whether the race sank or swam, and of course many of you know result. Some say we men (?) sold out, others say we were bluffed out still others aver that we drank out. There is one thing sure, we and it seems out forever, the way some of our weak-knced leap up with the powers that be. Women of the race, on bended knee.

Atlantic City, N. J., June 9. The Lincoln university aggregation celebrated its visit to the world's greatest resort by adminstrating a trombling to the fast Vanguard Athletic Center. A large crowd, by the close, core of 3 to 1. The game was hotly tested throughout. Nolan, the so-called woundsman, is good style for the locals. Errors by his teammates are the contest for the hard-working hilltopter. Wyatt and Proctor were both used by Coach Grim to stop the Vandals. They both pitched in clever form and held their opponents hitless in the pinches. The Vandals scored their lone run in the sixth. Sawyer batted out a single to center and stole second. He advanced to third base on Nolan's crack. Sawyer crossed the rubber when McLean hit the Towne. The team returned to tally in the seventh and ninth corners, a cellen't tossing stopped them. With two men on the bases and two out in the sixth, Hilton knocked a scorer over the left field fence, but the strong wind blew it foul. The Orange and Blue scored in the sixth. The Towne threw times on misplays and timely walters. Hilton crossed the plate for the first run in the second inning, when he singled to center and advanced to second on a throw to the plate to get Goss. He raced home on Henderson's blow to left. Kimberlou also scored the second tally in the sixth. The Towne hit by Bloch Franklin and a long sacrifice fly to left field by Henderson. Proctor brought the score up to three in the ninth. Franklin threw Proctor's grounder in the blenchers and allowed him to get to second. He marched home on Smith's double to left. Lincoln Univ. AB, R. H, O, A, E.

Ted Meredith of Pennsylvania, and Binga Dismond of the University of Chicago, joint holders of the world's record in the quarter-mile run, will not meet Saturday. Stagg's plan to bring together these two world beaters in connection with the annual intercontinental meet of the University of Chicago has already been scheduled, received a wire from the eastern star this morning that exams would interfere with his coming to Chicago. This will, in all probability, be the Maroon star's last performance, as he will be able to graduate next winter. As Meredith is now graduating, the mark of 0.47 2-5 will stand as the last performance of the greatest pair of quarter milers that collapsed in the first leg. Elemont fort is being made to have Discontinu- continue in athletics till June. It is the consensus of opinion that Dismond can beat Ted's time, as the latter was not pushed Saturday. PHALANX TEAM WINS The Phalanx team won a one-sided game from the Burr Oaks stars at Burr, Oak, Ill., Sunday by the score of 9 to 6. The game was marred by the very unimpressive score from Phalanx by the home team. After the Phalanx had piled up a six-run lead the Burr Onks began kicking and arguing so much to the disgust of the Phalanx umpire, Mr. Jno. Oglebsy, that he retired. Smith, Martin and Green made their first appearance with the Phalanx and each showed well. Score: Durr Oaks— R. H. O. A. E.

The sixteenth annual track and field meet of the Western Intercollegiate Athletic Association held on Northwestern field last Saturday was beyond a doubt the greatest ever held in the West. One world's record was broken, one tied and seven Western Conference marks were broken. The stars of this remarkable meet was Binga Diamond, the unbeatable marvel from the University of Chicago. Not to be outdone by J. E. "Ted" Meredith of the University of Pennsylvania, who was a graduate student, week before last in the Eastern intercollegiate meet, our old reliable friend. RUBE FOSTER AND FATE BEATS CUBANS' STARS Thursday afternoon the fans were treated to a real game of baseball. Inside ball and a little outside, too, as a matter of course, and as our distinguished guest Mr. Arthur Krause, the player from the time the game started till the present day, but our dear friend Art said "Gosh, hang it, those Glants have got 'om all skinned." So much for Art. The game, not allowing a hit until the ninth inning, went into the lead in the fourth inning when Hill played g single a t r i t l e t oon and Chacon was on second before the ball was returned to the infield. He scored a single and hit a home run to one to their feet. Duncan, the first man up, singled, the first hit the Glants had gleaned off Padron, Lloyd singled, Grant sacrificed. Gauss was put on to run for Chacon, who sent it to Roche nailing Gauss at the plate and the catcher tried to double Rube at first but the big follow was in the way and the ball grazed his shoulder rolling to the right and the ball sent a long fly to center across. Francis sent a score after the catch. The score: American Giants. R. H. P. A. E.

Blinga, surprised us all by equalling with ease this seemingly permanent record. The preliminaries had left eight men qualified to run in the final heat of the 440 for these men lined up for the start all the way into interment on seeing how they "got off." That was a perfect one. Dismond jumping into the lead in the first 30 yards, closely followed by Williams of Wisconsin and Duggy of Missouri. At 200 yards Dis- and Duggy drew in. At the lead and steadily drawing away. At the yards he was 7 yards ahead of Williams, and man. At the finish he won by ten yards in 472-5. Williams, Wisconsin, and second, Duggy, Missouri, was third and third, Duggy, Missouri, was fourth. It's too difficult to try and guess how fast this "human express" can really travel when hard pressed. The relay race was won by Wisconsin in 3:58 2-5. After a hard fight, at the beginning of the last quarter mile, Williams of Wisconsin was thirty-two yards in the lead in Chicago, with the mighty Dismond was in position. It was this terrible lead that the Macon had tried to cut down, and after his record run in the quarter mile, he came through, putting Chicago University in second place when he traveled the distance in 48-5-5 seconds, finishing a scant two yards behind the Wisconsin man. The track season is over at Chicago University, and the whole student body is proud of Dismond's record of victories in the quarter mile with no defeats besides several new records to his credit. He ranks with Meridith as the greatest runner the world has ever produced, a credit to his race, his family, his school.

St. Louis, Mo., June 9.—Leo Patterson, the Joplin marvel, outpointed Jackle Moore of Columbus, Ohio, in a fast eight-round bout at the Future City A. C. Peterson outgenerated Moore and shot left hooks and jabs to Moore's head which seemed to worry the Ohio l. Moore was covered well and kept rushing Patterson and trying to land to knockout, but Patterson was too clever and fast for him. Patterson blocked bedfully, which looked very much like some of the old master's. Jack Johnson's, pretty work. Patterson would walk in to Moore and shoot both hands as fast as lightning into Moore's stomach. Jackle land some hard blows on Leo's jaw but to punches didn't take effect. Moore is very dangerous boy at all times and she does make any fighter earn his money. He also has a knockout in either hand, but Patterson is too clever for him. In the semi-final Knoe Britt of Little Rock outpointed Kid Harris from Memphis. Butting Johnny and Black Wigast went to a six-round draw. Jack Johnson Suns Himself and Smies for Spaniards Madrid, Spain, June 10, — Vying with the signboards of Senores Aster, Gallito ad Balonte, national favorites of Spain, the bull ring, is a new one proclaining Jack Johnson "Campeonato del Mundo" the boxing ring. It gets as much success as do the others, because Richard Gith is a good advertiser, but it is not as popular. Boxing is a cruel and forecast sport and the sporting writers resent the new intrusion which will "lead the youth of the land astray." In Barcelona, where, in April, Johnson gave the first real prize fight over the champion in Spain, he was hailed as champion in a questionable line of endeavor. The writers of sport notices were sure that "when Barcelona has once satisfied its curiosity as to this thing called prize-fighting, it will never wish to see another." Johnson feels differently about it. When he is so inclined—every morning, to be exact—he struts up the broad Rambla, or Promenade, where the hurdreds of flower girls smile over their counters. Then he takes a brisk walk—training for his fight with the English fighter, Senior Craven. In the afternoon he visits the music halls in the evening he inhabits the music halls. He is not training as a fighter in a "business job does, but he keeps in exhibition Proud of Jack. The citizens accept him because he is famous, and stare in wonder at his suture, but they are proud of him as t. s. fighters, and they see him as fighters. Johnson sees more blood a one afternoon's "gentle sport" than he has seen in years of boxing. Six bu. six each, he calls each one built responsible for an average of two dead horses before he is regarded sufficiently dangerous for the clever, in spite of the indifference, boxing is coming slowly there. A club has been formed for its promotion, and exhibitions of its skills are passed in the premier boxing club in New York, and Johnson and his friends call it the harmful effect of "ham-and-egg" but there is nothing better to be had. When the American method of afternoon exhibitions of the men at their own managers was horrified, the Spanish (france) spon' that way would rob rob them of so much when the big fight was over, and that if eightteen years, if boxing had taught him how to run the game, and that if it was not done all, he demanded at an exhibition one night that an announcement be made from the stage that he would be boxing 20 cents. Luckily the fighter did not see it, or there would have been a dead announcer, and the fears of the fighter—boxing is a deadly sport. BILLIARD TOURNAMENT Pittsburgh, Pa, June 10—The pocket billiard tournament at Tummini's billiard room, the 41 players still in the race for the $150 worth of valuable prizes.

Johnson Favors Germany Johnson will talk about the Germans, about the war in general, about his coming visit to South America for the Argentine Centennial in July, but there are two things he will not discuss—the United States and Willard. He is not a Germanophile, but he admires them because he thinks them like him. "You know I've fought so long that it comes easy, I never lose my wind and I never get tired. And them Germans is just like me—fightin' comes natural." The ex-champion's idea is that since the war has killed France and England for his business, Spain is the proper place to make money. So he goes his strutting way, advertised as the present champion, giving exhibitions in music halls and giving lessons. Madrid, he says, has been kind. He was busy for three months with engagements, and he talks endlessly of the future of his favorite sport in the capital city. But he prefers to talk of the entitlements of one great hotel there, which has everything from theaters to ebarets, with always plenty to drink. The strenuous life of severe training has lost its charm. The old fighter plans to stay in Spain, France, Spain and Colombia, and then start for Italy. When he comes back he expects Spain to be ready for a regular org of boxing, but he doesn't expect hopes to import. In the meantime he is grooming a nephew of his for middle-age height, who is ready to willen. He allows uncle says to him that he should make a real try until he is twenty-three or more. Then comes the nephew, who is ready to should do. The majority start too young, without sufficient training. He gets wrapped of vitality before he finds funds to buy a new gym. He lives there when his brain has developed properly. More supervision at the start, and a much later start is the way that he plans to bring out a new champion. "But there's one thing I can't forget," he says to his kids. "You know, I got the greatest secret in the world for keeping冻 C RECITAL Alton, Ill., June 9.—Professor and M.
