In more than fifty cases, my information is, white people were asked where they lived, and upon asserting their north side, west side or the extreme south side, as the case may have been, they were told to "get out of here and go back where you live, and don't let you in, in these bigger places any more." Witnesses can be produced on this. "In the cases of the clubs raided my information is that they are chartered clubs, the membership of which is exaggerated, and further disclosures that no notice or complaint had ever reached the commanding officer of the district to the effect that any of these places were violating ordinances or laws." This, I understand, is an intervention from the chief's office. "In all of the cases where the raids were made and persons arrested they were taken to outlying stations, booked open, which had the effect of render- ing impossible for friends or rela- tives to get into them, about or get them out if located. This condition continued. I am informed, as to these arrests from 24 to 40 hours, during which time they were incarcerated in stuffy cells and allowed no communication with the outside world, and located if two individuals (471 Halsted and Deering stations) some people in whom I was interested. The commanding officer informed me that he could not do anything, as the cases were govern- mental cases and beyond the legal delimitation since, even from the Hips of the city, is quoted correctly in the Chicago Tribune, shows that the representation of government orders was absolutely untrue. As a representative in part of the Second ward, I am unable to understand why the County of Defense and the police department is so up and upon that feeling act, that the Second ward is the only place in the city where anything unlawful occurs. "I resent -this asperation upon my life and my people, because they are just law- abiding and peaceful as any other people in any other section of the city." "Recently the State Council of Defense charged the Second ward with being the moral cesspool of Chicago. Then, as now, I presented it, and I proved from statistics in the police department that the sections of the moral cesspool increased 80 per cent in the Second ward in one year. I sent a copy of the report of my investigation to Mr. Insulli, likewise Chief Alcock. I afterward had the satisfaction of having Mr. Insulli the State Council of Defense tell the committee on Home Defense that he was in error in making that statement. "May I not point out to you the singular significance of a wholesale raid in the Second ward on the morning of the day that we were advertised to address the Colored of the largest churches in the Second ward? May I not also point out to you the significance of the Chicago Tribune being the only morning paper that contained publication of these raids on the first day of the attack, and the announcement on another page that you were to address the Colored voters of the ward on that day? Finally, may I not also call your attacks on the raiders have been made, there has been created an impression among a large proportion of our population in the Second ward that such unheard of methods could not have been resorted to without the knowledge of the mayor? This, personally, I know is not true, but the impression has been created, and now, myself and others who bebed in you have be compelled to redouble efforts to ground resulting from this outrageous and brutal policy of the police.

On every hand indignation is voiced not because the police felt that the ordinance was being violated, but on account of the wild west brutal methods that characterized their conduct. Alderman Anderson and his assistant, Alderman Anderson, apprehended that the police had exceeded their authority in carrying out these raids, and disclaiming any defense for whatever violations of the ordinance or laws that the places may have been guilty of, have instituted a thorough investigation and arrest of the mayor, Alderman Anderson directed a communication to the mayor, which communication met the approval of Alderman Jackson. It follows: Wm. Wm. Hale Thompson, Mayor City Hall, Chicago—Deal M. Mayer, Mayor University, Chicago—Deal M. Mayer protests against the manner and method by which a wholesale raid was conducted on places of recreation and amusement in the Second ward on Sunday morning between the hours of 12 and 3 a.m. My investigation discloses that violated the police and vicious language and brutal treatment characterized their conduct.

Young to Active Duty Follow Urgent Appeal Washington, Aug. 2.—Already there are numerous evidences that the recent conference of editors and leaders held in this city in June, which was called by Emmett J. Scott, special assistant to the secretary of war, at the suggestion of the War Department and the Committee on Public Information, to consider the relations of the 12,000-000 Race people in this country with the general government itself, and to discuss ways and meang, how each might co-operate most effectively in the work of winning the present worldwide war, is bearing fruit. Three results of the most significant character been worked out within the past forty years, including the building of the conference and other issues, less far-reaching are well on their way toward a satisfactory conclusion. President Wilson's Clean, Cut Pronouncement Against Lynching The first in importance and human interest of the helpful results that may be said to have grown directly out of the recent conference of editors, and the co-operation of Negro leaders and friends of the Negro people, is the rank, position and unequivocal declaration, against the mob spirit, States against the mob spirit, which has been sent to the four corners of the earth by cable and through the newspapers of this country. President Wilson's firm stand for law and order ranks with the finest of the great state White House has emanated from the White House and has electrified the entire country as it has saddened been thrilled before. According to an announcement made through the office of the special assistant to the secretary of war last week, plans have been laid by the surgeon general of the army to have Colored pits assigned to patrol pits in this country where approximately 38,000 black troops are stationed, namely: Camps Funston, Dodge, Grant, Taylor, Sherman and Dix; and with a practical certainty have a further opportunity to serve among the Colored soldiers overseas. With the constant increment of Colored men in the army and the number of women to be utilized must be correspondingly enlarged from time to time, with a constantly expanding area of influence. This signal triumph has heartily beyond measure the women of our land, who are called upon in time of war to make the heaviest sacrifices, and yet are the most willing to sacrifice and to serve when called upon to do business the second big achievement that must be achieved the recent conference and it will prove to be a vital factor in alleviating the unrest that has been breaking down the morale of Negro Americans. Col. Young May Soon Be Called to Active Duty The early recall to active duty of Col. Charles Young, the idol of the young men of red blood and sturdy public spirit, also urged by the conference, is before the War Department. It has become known that the secretary of war from the very beginning had the whole matter of utilizing the valuable military experience and services of Col. Young, who, until his retirement some months ago, was actively identified with the regular army. The two concrete results here reflect the lap of the gods, "would seem amply to justify the recent Conference of Colored Leaders and Editors, who sacrificed time and business interests to, crystallizes requests into tangible realities and demonstrate the value of intensive co-operation with the na BidsSouth"Good- Bye" Forever Visit to Home in Alabama Convinces Anywhere Else Is Home, Sweet Home Maryland City Re-elects Race Man on Council Board Race Man on Council Board Cambridge, Md.

The child's condition is said to have unbalanced the mind of White. The child was allowed to escape. Politics is said to have played an important part in freeing the criminal. Mem of Western Africa Respond in Enthusiastic Manner to Call of Arms in France and Prove Themselves to Be Real Heroes Paris, Aug. 2.—The black troops of France, have lately attracted public attention on account of the public recruiting mission which, under the direction of M. Blase Diagne, black deputy of Senegal, is actually traveling through French West Africa with a view to intensifying voluntary enlistment of foreign different races that people those vast territures ago, suit of the mission is not eye known, as M. Blase Diagne, accompanied by his staff, which is composed of the sons of many of the leading chiefs of Senegal and adjacent countries, only reached a small age, while ago. However, some people, while doing the choice of M. Diagne as head of the mission as an extremely happy one, fear that as he is very much Europeanized, and only knows Senegal, he will not be "black enough." If one may imagine, as with the evidence of the more primitive natives, of same persons are inclined to believe that the recruiting would have been much more efficacious had it been intrusted to different black chiefs, who would have acted each in his own hands, while having a sort of crusade with the co-operation of "L. French administration. Nevertheless, whatever be the result of M. Diaglione's mission, the black troops deserve a special mention for low salaries. Their splendid heredity, given up after the war, gives them the worthy brethren in some of the French polis, who have worked assimilation of the world on the different fronts. Yet these black troops are of relatively recent formation, the first recruiting mission, composed of 18,000 men, General Mangin and four French officers, being appointed after the vote of the budget of 1910. The mission left Bordeaux in May, 1910, and returned to France in November of the same year, after having visited Mangin and four French officers, General Mangin, who had left France with idea of raising the 5,000 "volunteers" which the most optimistic protagonists of black recruits believed obtainable, soon realized that the immense possibilities of the African reservoir had and that, were it necessary, he could easily raise some 40,000 recruits yearly. The enthusiasm with which the men of Western Africa answered the French call to arms is attributed to the fact that of all the forms of service which the French government has required of the French, 80 per cent of them unique—which he has never refused to accomplish, and where the supply has surpassed the demand, viz., that of military service. The best proof of this is seen in the rapidity with which Senegalese regiments are formed, a weapon sufficing for their entire completion. This willingness to comply with France's military exigencies, and the cheerfulness with which the populace applauded the "marshals" is a fact of no small importance. French domination has introduced but few new occupations into the civil life of the native—and what tasks; could France offer to those peasants uniquely occupied with their fields and farms; could France impose the law of exchange? The military career, on the other hand, seems to satisfy a particular craving; and, therefore, although laborers are often more highly remunerated than the "trailblazers" whose results are infamable, while workmen and fluid hands are excessively rare. A striking example of the entu- ism with which the populations re- spond to Farnce's call is furnished by the following fact: At Tivananou, during General Mangin's tour, long and long, with the help of the those who wished to enlist as "tir- lleurs." The son of Lat Dior, a chief who for twenty years fought against France and fell bravely resisting the Sphails, made the following de- claration to General Mangin amidst univer- sity protests. He was fighting for fighting for the defense of our com- mon fatherland. Should this honor be denied me, I prefer to enlist as a simple tirrelleur rather than remain here as chief of my tribe." At Kaolak General Mangin made a speech asking for French trousers maires, and the Bour Sire, King of Sine—replied in the following terms: "We have long been awaiting words such as those you have just uttered. We know only war. Look at our arms. We know only war. Look at our arms. You will reserve the foremost places for those among us who have already been warriors. You are quite right. Fighting has always been our tradition. The land belongs to him who is fighting. At a gesture of the chieftain, 300 runners rushed forward. "So these men," said Hour Sine proudly. "There is not one among them whose family has not fallen in war. We will give you all the military (military autocracy) who remain." These examples of the striking similarity of sentiment obtaining among the natives of all parts of French West Africa, be they Senegalese, Toucouleurs or Monis, prove that the creation of the troupes noires is good policy in the French West Africa, only successful one. The recruiting, theoretically compulsory since the decrees of Feb. 7, 1912, is in reality a sort of compromise between compulsory and voluntary service, and is carried on by means of propaganda, special advantages, such as exemption from taxation, and so forth, being granted Indifference of Mayor and Police Causes Loss of Life Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 2.—Mob rule took a serious grip on this city last Sunday and following its murderous activities, two white men, one of them a policeman, are d.ad and two others a policewoman, are cleared away in South Philadelphia, where guns and pistols thundered for hours. The alleged murdersers of both the dead men are under arrest. Fifteen other men of the Race are in a serious condition at the Policlinic clinic, where under arrest charged with indoling a riot and carrying concealed weapons. For the last three days 150 policemen and specials called from all parts of the city patrolled the section between Third Avenue and Thirtieth streets and Washington Street. At the Navy Yard 250 marines—a company—were held under arms, ready for dispatch to the scene of the President Wilson Against Mob Rule The Chicago Defender deserves the conscientious thanks of all liberty-loving members of our Race for its continual and unceasing fight to secure the rights of all people, to protect the nation against mob violence. Embodied in the President's appeal to the country can be found the principles enunciated by this paper: for the past twelve months in its fight for justice, we have worked to democratize the world, especially the Southland, we have laid down one fundamental principle, namely, that in order to show good faith in our efforts to carry the fight against the oppressive sea, and in order for others to accept us in good faith, we must cease to burn men and women at the stake. It is indeed unfortunate that such conduct upon the part of some of the Southlanders should have become so enraged to threaten the character and respectability of the entire nation; but it is, nevertheless, true. This fact is glaringly proven by hideous photographs of the Southland demonstrating the burdens and brutal activities of the midnight mob. These photographs are being used as strong evidence of our insincerity in foreign countries friendliness and cooperation, and we thus we have a double war on our hands—a war to preserve our own country and a war to preserve our good name. This baneful civil having become so powerful that the international reputation of our country that the President of the United States has been compelled to issue a statement to the country asking, in the name of justice, truth and right, that this unwarranted violence of civil rights and law shall cease. It is pleasing to note that the President's appeal has served to awaken the conscience of at least one powerful institution, namely, the Chicago Tribune whose reportorial articles have been released to the public, tried, by the concocted plan of advertising our vices and minimizing our virtues. On last Sunday the Tribune Continued on Page 13 Tried, Convicted and Sent TO DEATH IN ONE WEEK Dallas, Texas, Aug. 2, 1991, Jones indicted by the Indiana Department near Rose Hill, a suburb of this town, was tried, convicted and given a death penalty in the Criminal Court by Judge Charles A. Pippen has been convicted of eleven minutes, which is considered a record-breaker in the annals of the court. The courtroom was crowded with 400 white people, but no demonstration was made after a veritable riot. The detentions were returned, one charging rape and the other murder. He was tried on the indictment for murder. Dock Bryant (white, age 10, nophew of a victim) and his aunt Atticus Bell were "Will Jones, that nigger there," indicating the defendant. The state asked for not more than thirty minutes for argument, and he was denied only eighteen minutes. The defendant no argument. The defendant entered a plea of not guilty. Captain Coates Dismissed; Stole Army Money Washington, D. C., Aug. 2—President Wilson has approved the sentence imposed by a court-martial at Camp Meade, Md., on Capt. Spriggs B. Coates of the 368th infantry, Captain Coates of the 368th infantry, and Captain States Disciplinary Barracks at Fort Leavenworth for one year and dismissed from the service. He was found guilty of fraudulent conversion to the United States belonging to his company's funds. Captain Coates received his commission at the Officers' Training Camp, Des Moines, Iowa. He was an old army officer, and he was appointed for a number of years. When the officers' training school was started at Des Moines he was detached from his company, with a number of other regular army sergeants, and because of his ability gained a captain's commission. He is married and has on son. PRICE FIVE CENTS PHIA DEPTMENT Life of Mayor Causes of Life hot. Home defence reserves assisted the police in handling the excited crowds, which throughed the streets of the locality clamoring to take part in the melee.

George Miller, an uncle of the dead man, 1217 South Twenty-seventh street, was wounded seriously when he went to aid. Four white men who attempted to arrest Butler were badly beaten. Booze Shops Are Closed Saloonkeepers have been appealed to by the police to close doors and, while a few complied with the request, the police remained open. Every bar in the section were parked and at the door stood a policeman. According to the police, hundreds of residents are leaving the danger zone for places of safety. Several men were found fleeing, clad in women's garments. But while there were numerously injured, there were scores who avoided trouble. One mob barricaded itself in a vacant house at Twenty-seventh and Alter streets and fired shots from loaded muskets through the windows at white men in the street, who smashed them. The raiding party died at the approach of a detail of police and the men inside were arrested. Some of them escaped by scaling the rear fence. The police found seven muskets in the upper floors of the house. The police acted as the infurred white mob took place in the home of Henry Huff at 2745 Titan street. Huff is in Moyamensing prison charged with the murder of Policeman McVay. Late yesterday afternoon half a hundred men, many of them neighbored into Titusville of the dead bluecoat, marched into Titusville with clubs, knives, bricks and rope. Mayor Shows Indifference And while this mob rule was prevailing within a dozen blocks of City Hall, Mayor Smith confessed that he did not know how order was going to be re-formed. He affected an attitude almost the wrecking of homes and the bloodshed, the law. The situation, the mayor explained, was in the hands of Assistant Superintendent of Police William B. Mills, and the acting head of the city's police department said he had been shot and probably fatally wounded in the section on Saturday morning. "The situation is well in hand," said Mills, and while he was making that declaration another man had been shot and probably fatally wounded and a shot time later several more fell asleep. By inpatient participants in the riot, Mills said he had sent 250 policemen into the district on Saturday, but this large force was inadequate to check the bitterness between the white and colored residents. He sent two policemen from house in the city into the troubled area. With the coming of night, the roiling continued unabated, while the police made feeble and frantic efforts to scatter the throngs which gathered in the streets armed with every sort of weapon, the most frequently used instrument was a blackjack. Hundreds carried bricks with jagged edges. The killed in Hands of Police The fierce city war was aroused when it was learned that a policeman killed while in the hands of the police. The man who met his death yesterday was Riley Bullock, 38 years old, 230nin Street. He was shot through the lungs as he was being led to the police, a federal streets station, bleeding from wounds inflicted during a riot a few squares away. He was killed by a white rioter. Business men throughout the city condemned the failure of the police de- (Continued on page 3) Murderer of Paymaster Sent to Death in Electric Chair Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 2.—Aaron Washington of Dayton, who was con- victed the day before, over (white), paymaster of the Actua Paper Company, was executed here Friday, July 26, for the crime.

Atlanta, Ga. SATURDAY, AUGUST 3, 1918 Mayor Thompson Investigates Police Department Mayor Thompson Investigates Police Department (Continued from page 1) in conference after listening to their protests, which backed up in every particular the communication above by Adderman Anderson, he immediately sent the following commentation to the general superintendent of police: "Mr. Jno. H. Alcock, Cocking, Agent of Police, "Dear Sir, enclose a letter from Alderman Louis B. Anderson of the Second Ward, which explains itself. The address is given to exaggerate. He is not know." "If his information is correct regarding the notions of the police, it is opinion that I should be suspended and called before the Civil Service Commission for trial. I agree that I may receive a report in this matter at your earliest convenience, I am. Yourms very truly, "WM. HALE THOMSON, "Mayor." When discussing the matter with a representative of the Defender, Alder- man Anderson said, "I wish it distinctly understood that I am not attempt- to interfere with the police department, administrative office with regard to suppressing any form or forms of violations of either the state, ordinances of the city or rules, or the police. My complaint is, and upon that complaint my protest is based against the manner and method of brutality; the state or rules; the police conduct on the part of the police in carrying out and exercising their authority. I do not wish to be understood as meaning that the police should be gloves, but I do wish to be understood as insisting that when this character of arrests are made, such conduct as dividing them in groups according their racial identity, calling them 'Niggers' must not and shall not be tolerated, and completely cutting them off from me. One of the things that entitles me to be extremely uncalled for and opposed to all sense of justice and fair dealing, was the taking of the people, and completely cutting them off from communication with relatives and friends, and holding them from 18 to 19 years old, for offences for which they were charged, even if they were guilty, did not war- rant such treatment. To permit these things to go on without protest, only encourage the police in repelling the attack, or in any club, or clubs are permitting gambling the police should suppress them. If any place of amusement is in the club, the police should suppress it, but they have no right to employ the methods of the 'Dark Ages' in carrying out their attempts to suppress. That is my position in this matter. Dr. Williams Now Interne at Provident Hospital Dr. Rutherford M.

Harrison, Oklahoma City, Wash., was the guest of honor at the Original Providence Baptist church, Walnut and Leavitt street, of which the Rev. Boston J. Prince is pastor, on its 50th anniversary celebration of the 14th and 15th amendment to the Constitution of the United States, Monday evening, July 29th. JOHN H. The coming of Judge Harrison brought out a large number of the most repraised both white and members of the Race of the West and South Sides. The orator, had been heralded and, like shadows, made by hands made, had cast its glimmer in advance. Judge Harrison was at his best. He began his expose of what was indeed a manifestation of intelligence by paying attention to the guilded guests occupying seats upon the rostrum. The orator early in his speech made known the fact that he was pregnant with wholesome advice, not alone for the Race which he was advised to lift but for all humanity. He pledged a life to our humanity and loyalty of our people, whose bones are strenued upon every battlefield. He asked patience upon the part of the audience in the argument in the exercise of their critics, and said that we were a "baby race," only fifty years to test our right to an equal place in the curriculum of races. The judge's trend of thought now only stirs the soul, but leaves with you a force calculated to bring to the mind the lessons of the past, the cannot hear him without shouting their name for himself, because out of his best conscience you see in him the living evidence of our racial hopes and asseMBER of our specials as one who feels the weight of our responsibility to shoulders hang the struggles, hopes, and ambition of his Race. He brings to you no stereotypic message, but one with high ideals, patriotism and loyalty. He brings to you rights that come from the divine rights that all men shall enjoy the fruits of their labor, earned by clean and honest hands. He counts the lives of those who devil out from man to man, but it devils its origin from the Dedy himself. His vivid picture descriptive of the ple that peace shall bring to the nations of the earth was drawn by the death dealt alone in the futures of humanity. The speaker declared that when the blood of all nations shall be mingled will be able to determine no scientist will be able to determine no scientist is Saxon, Jewish, Irish, Swedish, Greek, Scandinavian, Italian, French, English or Negro, but that it will be the blood of all nations to again hold the scales in her hand and rest, disorder and distress which has so long wrecked the minds and conceived the masses might of the weight of its hopes of the human family. At the close of Judge Iurrison's brilliant speech, which received tremendous applause, the pastor, Rev. B. Hale Thompson, sent long remarks introduced Senator Samuel A. Ettelson, who represented Wm Hale Thompson, who was unavoidably detained in another part of the state, that Iurrison's speech was replete with good advice and a praise for the speaker, who, he declared, occupied a position as one of the foremost public speakers of his day. The senator reviewed the record and said he would relish as a public official to our people, and that the advocacy of the principles of all men up and not some men down had brought upon him the criticism certain vested interests who had constituted a threat to his because of his attitude toward our people. The music was conducted by Prof. J. Wesley Jones and Prof. J. A. Munday. This was one of the big features on the occasion.

A Ground Floor Proposition I, the undersigned, hereby subscribe for.....shares of the FULLY PAID AND NON-ASSESSABLE stock of the OVERLOOK CONSOLIDATED MINING CO., WALLA WALLA, WASH., for which I agree to pay ONE DOLLAR per share. Limited Number of Shares in the Overlook Consolidated Mining Co., of Walla Walla, Washington To Be Offered to Wideawake, Progressive Negroes Who Have Faith in the Mineral Resources of This Country This Is the First Time That Any Special Allotment of This Stock Has Been Made to Any Particular Class And the Ten or Fifteen Thousand Shares Will be Easily Ex- hausted Within the Next 50 or 60 Days While here at the mouth of the Kwu, or Greater Kansas City, has for years been accepted as a true barometer of social integrity, progress and advancement, the recent "letting down of bars" or the part of the company solidified Mining Company, owner of the world's greatest gold mine, referred to at various stock exchanges as "the mountain of gold," with Government reports showing assets of million of dollars has created a stir among Negro investors, unheard of before in this section. The Defender representative was recently called in at a meeting of the financial agent with a number of our clients, and found that plans for organization of local office had been carefully discussed and consummated. That two of the best and most conservative Negroes in the company were the members of T. B. Watkins and H. Moore, together with Q. J. Glmore, assistant financial agent, with offices at 1729 Lydia avenue, had been placed in charge of this 90-day campaign. Mr. Watkins, the company president of the Outlook Mining Company, a broad-gauged financial and mining expert, was there in person, and not only reviewed the many virtues and pros of the Company's holdings, but his two-hour visit was thoroughly educational as well. A Strong Company Backed by Strong, Compatible Men The Overlook Consolidated Mining Company $,000,000 capital, fully paid and non- assessable, par value $1. Including offered and to be issued, only $2,000,000 and nothing being in the treasury. Dividend earnings will have to be on only $2,000,000. The control will remain with the company. Why Overlook Treasury Stock Is Offered The Company having determined to invest $150,000 in a Hydro-Electric Power Plant, offers 150,000 shares of its tenure to investors. Thus a rare opportunity will be to investors. When the Power Plant and Marathon mills are installed the power plant will be able to mill 600 tons of ore per day on the initial milling unit. They intend to increase their tonnage as fast as circumstances will permit them to do that have a daily capacity of 600 tons. On the basis of $10 ore, this would amount to a daily production of $6,000, to a neighborhood of $2,000,000 per year, an annual dividend of $1 per share per annum. On the basis of $20 ore the production would amount to $4,000,000 per year, to pay annual dividends of 200 per cent. When you read the circular letters and reports sent out by the Overlook Consolidated Mining Company, you will learn that the company has such a great mine in the making, it ought to be very easy for the Company to raise sufficient money for the mine.

White Foreman Supports Democracy; Ignores Jim Crow Methods In these days when practically every man is made liable to military service and industry looks kindly to the native womanhood for the only little reluctant in giving credit to the weaker sex in being able to fill the bill. But a downtown firm, the Kimball Glass company, or the Randolph street, was a little better in its realizing the demands of the government by putting, without hesitation, a large group of girls to work, a large group of help may join the forces of democracy. It is a cheering situation to note when Frank Stibbs (white), the general foreman of this firm, brought this condition to his attention. —that being to instill in them the sound principles of that democracy, abroad and at home. To accomplish this condition, the firm must from every nationality, making them responsible for the future of the business. Recently, through the efforts of Hiram Reece, 3320 Indiana avenue, the firm has not to be segregated and discriminated against, but, as he says, "To breathe the cosmopolitan air that circulates among us, more girls are being added each week." A closer scrutiny of the whole matter will unearth the attenuous right of the women who have years in the recognition of our girls in the industries which have heretofore been closed to them. In this image, the women who are all white Who'll be the next? J. W. COOKS WANTED Any one knowing the whereabouts of Mr. M. F. Hamilton, 1236 E. Hattie street, Fort Worth, Texas. When he was in the army, ILL, working in a bakery shop—Adobe or Proposition of the West today had in their begin- ning a very hard time to raise money, not alone to develop them, but after they had proved up that they had a rich mine, and that they only needed enough capital to install their Power Plants. Banks will not loan money to develop mining properties, and capita- lists will not assist in the development of the most promising properties, un- less they can have more than a 50 percent interest and the absolute control for a very small price. Therefore, when a company does not want to lose, or give up its control, and that is to go on alternately left, and that is to go on alternately left, the investor. It does not take the investor long, when an unusual mining property comes along, to separate the shaft from the mine. Many gold mines that were big dividend payers are that they were compelled to seek private capital, and initially withdrew all treasury stock from the mine when the needed capital required to install their Power Plant was raised. The wealth gathered from mines immortalized King Solomon. Mining made the press of the world; mining made Great Britain a commercial dictator; mining made the United States the richest country in the world. Show me the country that has no mining and no people sunk in degradation of poverty; and poverty makes cowards of nations so well as of men. Mining has transformed men and tramp into millionaires and into positions of honor and trust than any other business. Without the miner no have the frying-pan, spoon or the hobbit filler, miner and you wipe out civilization. Truly, a nation's prosperity depends on the extent, variety and development of its resources. In concluding his remarks, Mr. Watkins expressed the belief that the amount of stock handled from the amount 172 million would be sold in one-half the volume this campaign. He asked that special attention be given to the report of the engineer of the Guggenheim interests, which we reproduce, as follows: "And the vein itself, I find to be an exceptionally strong, true fissure vein. It is practically cut through a vein that is practically cut through the earth from the exterior to the heated interior and cutting the formation. It is got enough above the saturated point of the vein to keep you milling for the next twenty-five to forty years, and then you will have to look out for it after that. "It is not a gamble. There is ore enough in sight at the present time to have been able to have ever been to and pay you a handsome interest on the money invested, and you haven't touched the boundaries of this stock is selling for cash—thirty days only being accepted for payment in full. Liberty Bonds will be accepted in quotations in making payment. An illustration is printed below for your immediate service. This is undoubtedly the opportunity." This is undoubtedly the opportunity of a lifetime. Grasp it at once, before it is too late, as all stock will be withdrawn when this limited issue is sold. For any information address. Q. J.

Franklin St. Body Slashed With Knive Body Slashed to Ribbons With Knives and Razors Body Slashed to Ribbons With Knives and Razors Brooklyn, N. Y., Aug. 2—Not since the days of the horrible murder of Dolly Hudson, which occurred in Williamsburg some twenty-odd years ago, has the community been so shocked as it was in the horrible murder of Wallace Thron, a respectable citizen, who was killed in cold blood by five outcourt ruffians, members of his own race, on Saturday evening, July 20. In company with Hughie Stewart about to enter the inner street, where the two parted. The murdered man proceeded to Marcy avenue, and between Wallabout and Walton streets he encountered Harry Stevens and George Stevens, who it is alleged, stabbed him with knives and razors, resulting in his death. The body from head to foot was a mass of blood, and he was beaten to a bait. Thinking his form to be lifeless where he fell, they completed a good job by throwing a street ash can over Thron's body, and he was ten minutes later by white citizens.

NEW YORK CITY SATURDAY, AUGUST 3, 1918 Officer Jasper Rhodes Under Arrest New York, Aug. 2.—Policeman Jasper Rhodes, attached to the 38th precinct, West 135th street, was arrested and locked up on the grounds of the New York International Exposition lagoon, where he was accused of who alleges Rhodes created a disturbance when a ticket to the bathing beach was refused him. Policeman Rhodes, who, in civilian attire, accompanied position grounds in the afternoon for an outing and decided to go in bathing. It seems that Rhodes had paid his fee to the park and when he applied for a position, he was refused, saying all his tickets had been purchased. Rhodes then asked for a 75 cent ticket. He was then told by the agent that she had instruction tickets to race and that she was not on her instructions through. The policeman, being at the head of the line at the time when told, retained his place. Then a man attired in a brown uniform asked him to race and he please step up." Officer Rhodes still stood by the box office and a man in a gray uniform asked him to leave the line and go see the manager. This posed manager stepped up and was informed that he, Rhodes, desired to go in bathing. Then the manager glibly stated that the bath house was closed. Seeing that this Race man was determined, he was next directed to see a supposed manager who was sitting in an automobile nearby. When Rhodes approached the supposed manager, he turned to plain clothes and immediately pleaded the officer under arrest on complaints of Stillman and taken to the Men's Night Court, charged with disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace. He was arraigned before Magistrate Bassup and discharged early Monday morning. Made Good as an Officer Officer Rhodes was the third Race policeman assigned to the New York police force and made good in a short space of time, having an excellent repre- nence. He was 10th avenue, which had been a terror to the police for many years. Unknown Man Attempts to Jump Off Williamsburg, Bri Brooklyn, N. J., Aug. 2, 18:30 a. m. last Saturday.

Y., Aug. 2.—The following account of the recent Republican unofficial convention held in Saratoga was obtained by a Defender reporter in an interview with one of the Race women, Dr. Gertrude Curtia, who was a delegate there. Dr. Curtia represented the Harlem district. "The address of the chairman, J. Sloat Fasset, was full of references to the deity, in fact he did everything but get on his knees and pray God to war, permeated everything, the war permeated everything, the fact more like a war council than a political convention, and I thanked God that I could say, with all those white people, its our war, for we've also got to get on his knees and make history over there; and, in the same way, for the relatives I've given myself and would have bowed in shame had it been otherwise. When I think of Theodore Roosevelt, the force that vibrated God's heart with me and I thanked God this beautiful wonderful speech (also on the wary personality of the man, I do not wonder at the almost insane worship of that gathering. Again things got so racial with me and I thanked God this beautiful wonderful friend to my people. Thank God for Roosevelt. Next was seen ex-President Taft and he was also forceful but the other idol spilled them all for me. He was the wayide. He was the professor. Yet when I learned he was 74 years old and heard his flow of purge English, that scholarly oratory he had, at least earned my respect. And after he earned my respect the men's speeches came Mrs. Helen leader of the Republican women of New York, like a gentle summer breeze, clean, pure and refreshing. Her speeches, although extemporaneous, were the convention. As a courtesy to the Mary Hay, of the Women's Suffrage Party, was made chairman of the resolutions committee. With more executive ability than most men, she was the most powerful woman a woman of whom all women should be proud. My personal pride was twofold, that I had lived to be a part of the law-making body of this glorious country and proud that I was wearing the first Colored women in that body."

P. Convention New York, N. Y. Aug. 2—Reports coming into this office as to the conduct of the Race delegates at the recent unofficial convention of the Re-creation of Sanctuary to show that on one side, they were lax in their actions. It seems that the Race men at the last minute, so we are informed, drew up a set of resolutions dealing on Race issues; but when they had finally got them in, they were not allowed to join. Their tardiness caused the convention to go unrecorded on any of the vital Race issues.

KNOCK And You Knock Alone. The Monogram Dan Michaela and his New York Folkies are here for the first time after a two weeks' engagement at the Booker Washington Theater, St. Louis, where they made a great reputation, and they have given a show that is well qualified to hold the boards for a two weeks' engagement. It is a well-dressed, well-trained aggregation, which has been given some good dancing, and a lot of clever comedy to recommend it, and it is a show that is well worth seeing. Bought and Paid For Bought and Paid For George Broadhurst's great drama, "Bought and Paid For." comes to the Avenue theater next week. He puts across the footlights a lesson with a punch characteristic of the great playwright. It ran one solid year in the loop some time ago to the biggest business and with the greatest success before or after. The Laffeyte Players will give the play with the same detail and effect. The story is of a poor telephone operator who marries for convenience a woman he loves, that despite her bubbles and luxury, she tastes the dregs of unhappiness. Her husband is satisfactory and pleasant until he goes on his periodical "The Golden Changes his thoughts of the Golden Mind." She surprises him by leaving him, preferring the humble life of the shop to that of a bird in a gilded cage. The play surely touches the artstrings and it is well worth seeing. Financially its success has been phenomenal, and artistically it has been awarded the highest praise by critics and the public alike. For" it is one of those absorbing plays that grip and hold the attention to the very last. It will create enough discussion to keep it in the limelight for some and should be seen by everyone.

Don't fall to see it. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER 'SINS OF'AMBITION "Sins of Ambition." Ivan Film Productions latest release, is heralded as Ivan's crowning creation. From the four cardinal points, which are the necessary attributes to every motion picture, viz., first, title; secondly, story; thirdly, cast and direction and fourthly, of course, photography, "Sins of Ambition" may be considered a perfect picture. It comes to the popular States theater on Sunday and Monday, two days only. Good acting and a strong and appealing moral make it a feature of value. As the title suggests, the author has attempted to show the difference between the evil ambition and the good. In this he has taken a number of concrete examples. The story interesting, and in part is as follows: Maxwell's neglect of his wife owing to his work on his books, causes her death. She is compelled to go Prescott. She is ambitious to go on the stage, so, backed by Prescott's money, she seeks a divorce from Maxwell. She is unable to follow in order that she may secure a divorce easily—that Ruth is not Maxwell's daughter. The father refuses to have anything to do with her. The daughter opposes the cause for her parents' differences, so makes love to Prescott herself. Ruth is discovered by her father, attempts to strike Ruth, the pederdy of Prescott and the shameless of all. The mother refuses to have anything more to do with Prescott, who, out of anger, attempts to strike Ruth, the pederdy of Prescott and the shameless of all. The mother tells all, which frees the daughter. The truth is then established that Ruth is in reality the daughter of Prescott. The family are once more united. Don't fall to see this great feature.

PATRIOTISM It Can't Be Measured by Color, Here's Proof. Birmingham, Ala., Aug. 2.—Ever since it was a town the people of Cullman, about forty miles north of Birmingham, will have been some 4,000, refused to permit Negroes to live within its limits. It never had a resident of color, and the members of the Race have been strictly prohibited from appearing within its borders, and the people of Cullman are largely populated by people of German scent, though no question has arisen as to their loyalty to the United States since this country's entrance into the war. Cullman became rich from trucking and fruit canning. It shipped more products of this kind than any town of its size in the South and became famous for this industry. But the members of the Race of a part of Cullman county, who were prohibited from living or staying in the town, have put themselves in loyalty by a higher record in the purchase of War Savings stamps. During the recent drive Cullman county failed to reach its quota. The amount subscribed in the county so far is about $11,600. The sum allotted was $11,400. The county was set apart as a separate district with a Race-chairman. This district has already subscribed $1,640, which is $140 more than its quota, and has gone out to double this amount before next January, with every proselytizer being assigned a feather in the middle of the of the Race in the only community in Cullman county where the black man is not permitted to live.

Numerous complaints have been coming to the ward offices of Aldermen Anderson and Jackson, 3333 So. State street, regarding conditions on the grounds of the South Park Commission and 33rd streets, with respect to the disposition on the part of a gang of white ruffians to prevent Race people from bathing in the lake. The police department, under whose jurisdiction the beach is, and the police department. In the course of investigation by the aldermen with respect to the people seeking the privileges of bathing in the bar of cases it was found that the life guards actually prohibited persons of color from entering the water at certain times. The greater part of the friction between the races, because it encouraged lawlessness on the part of the white ruffians, needed little or no incentive in giving their prejudice upon Race people. Supt. Foster of the South Park Commission was sought out and the facts were laid before him. He professed ignorance of the condition, but assured the aldermen that he would see to it the practices as represented by Alderman James and Jackson as being true of the life guards would be discontinued. Feeling perhaps that the South Park authorities would not exasperate the vigorous control over the situation which the police had been exercising in nuance of these vicious and un-American practices on the part of the whites, and supported by the life service Commission, the aldermen brought the matter to the attention of the Acting First Deputy Supt. of Police, Captain forgan Collins. When they explained that Collins immediately issued an order to the commanding officer of the third district directing that a detail of one of the officers be sent to Collins immediately issued an order to the commanding officer of the third district directing that a detail of one of the officers be sent to Collins immediately issued an order to the points above indicated. The officer reported for duty on Sunday of this week and has been constantly on the job since and will be able to work during the entire bathing season. The aldermen made a personal inspection of the beach subsequent to the issuance of the order, and found Rita Baldwin bathing in the water out interference. This prompt action on the part of the police acting upon the aldermen's complaint is commending the police degree and strikingly illustrates the need for enforcement and the keen watchfulness of the rights of our people on the part of our active and energetic representatives. People are to be congratulated on having two vigorous and alert representatives in the city council who always act together and in harmonious accord with the sense of the rights and privileges guarded under the law to their constituents.

Phone Douglas 4528 Streets Cleaned Acting upon a thorough investigation of the condition of the streets and alleys in the Second Ward by Aldermen Anderson and Jackson, which was found to be in poor condition, they to be in a condition which in every respect justified the numerous complaints received by them at their matter up and discussed it together with Commissioner of Public Works Bennett, Supt. of Streets Mitchell, together with the Ward Supt, Mr. Carr, who was to devising some way or means by which the conditions could be remedied. The oldman knew that the appropriation for the year was 46 per cent less than what the ward received last year and after going over what is needed for the rest of the fiscal year with the officials above named it was found that additional wagons and men could and be employed to remedy what is needed for the rest of the fiscal year upon their inspection tour. The Defender has been making a fight for cleaner streets and alleys, but it now knows that the aldermen that the appurtened of this purpose had been cut almost in half. The people want clean streets and clean alleys, as it tends to reduce crime. The aldermen will be appurtened the aldermen are entitled to the highest praise for the results obtained. The Defender would suggest that the aldermen be appurtened to assist the aldermen in continuing to keep the ward clean by placing the garbage in the proper receptacle, all in the same place as they ashes in the cans for that purpose. Under the ordinances of the city landlords are required to furnish ash and ashes in the cans for that purpose it is only necessary to report it to the aldermen and they will see to it that such accommodations are furnished. By this method, and this method alone, the aldermen to keep our alleys clean and sightly.

Business men and street attendants have plains to Adderman Anderson agp Jackson regarding it with result that he has ordered a policeman stationed on the corner day and night to prevent these scraps between Race men, and these instances between whites and colleagues. A representative of the Chicago Defender was passing Thirty-fifth and sixteenth Street when one of those fights occurred the southwest corner. He called the matter to the attention of the alderman and informed the number of other compulsory members made and that the attention of the police department had been called to it. An officer was issued reeling the commander's Third Police Precinct to detail an officer whose exclusive and sole duty was to preserve peace. Such evidences as these and the prompt manner in which they are looked after augurs well for the officer and been interest that our two aldermen are being in the welfare of their constituents. Mme.

I am not a disqualifier to the United States Government, and I am impatiently said or done anything that could be put down as disqualified. 2. I did not run away from Vicksburg.

All of my interests are there. My wife and young baby are there, the busi- ness which I have worked hard to get to, and the place call home is there. 4. I cannot understand why I was sought out during the unfortunate affair Tuesday. I have no nephews and are not to be on the firing line. I have expressed my regret to my wife and friends on several occasions that my business would not allow me to volunteer. But being of draft age I expect yet to be called.

If there are charges of disobedience to return to Vicksburg and face them, as I am sure the fair-minded people of Vicksburg will be am anxious to return and remain to live down this unfortunate affair. Yours most earnest and loyalty. WM. P. HARRISON. It is said by those who understand the pulse of this new movement that the uim and object of this alleged loyalty is to drive the professional members of the FSA from the South under the guise of disloyalty to course, a deeper significance than only driving them away from the South.

Gentlemen: Owing to circum-situated control, I am forced to terminate my lease of office at 1217 Washington street. Are the thinking white people going to stand for such actions? I presume that war time is the time to get off old grudges under the guise of patriotism. Do different people like peaks. Too cowardly to attack alone. So it is with mobs. Mob law is no law and to say at home I am disloyal. To differ. Do different people on his view relative to my Race, I am disloyal. To ask for a man's chance, I am disloyal. To criticize Southern Democracy. Who are my accusers? Dr. R. A. Quin; Alex Fitzhugh; Major Lee Richardson; P. M. Harding; Larry A. Brown; Dr. Hollioman; and other good white citizens I might name. Knowing Vicksburg as I do I unhesitatingly answer a question. I own a hundred dollar ($100) Liberty Bond. I aided the Red Cross. I closed my office and canvassed the town in the Third Library in the town. I am a member of the National Preparedness League of American Dentists. I have volunteered for service in the Dental Service Corps. Yet, Mr. who (?) charges me as disloyal. Dishal to the flag that gave me freedom? It is preposterous. Do you want to free people everywhere? I will leave the matter with thinking people to answer. Yours truly. D. D. FOOTE. people in that part of the country of any intelligent medium through which to make their appeal for their Race. The object is plainly evident. They hope by so doing to virtually re-enforce the moral character of their Race. Having robbed them of their civil rights, they now have set on foot methods, by which they hope to rob them of their commercial and professional success. All under the guise of disloyal. The crowning effort of their contemptible act was the tar and feathering of two women of the Race, one woman of the African descent and trenches in France. One of the women tarred and feathered. Mrs. Ellen Brooks, was burned with creosote, in addition to the coating of tar and fire, to prevent her from becoming a woman. For inhuman treatment, brutal and savage conduct, this crowns the natives of Mississippi with the curse of savagery that will be forever remembered. Wherever mentioned among civilized people of the earth. The history of the brutal monarchs of the old world have been read and reread seeking answers to the questions nothing can be found in the dark pages of ancient history that will strike a balance with the conduct of these Wicksburg Citizens. It is hoped for the future that the man who was when that when the muse of history will take in its keeping the records of mankind, that the memory of the State of Mississippi in its treatment of its fellow man will be left out of consideration. Not only was this ruthless intrepidation imposed upon these people,* but a number of business and professional men who were out of the city on off-duty property owners were sent letters by the mob with instructions for them not to return home. No regard was shown by these promoters of savagery to give these men any opportunity of being employed; were the accumulations of a lifetime; they were simply advised not to return to Vicksburg. This conduct demonstrated the security of life and property in our country. It is extremely important that such incidents should occur when every real patriotic American citizen is exerting every wholesome influence possible to aid the government in this tremendous crisis that autocracy might be wiped from the earth. While this is being done, the government is also wading women with crescent and tar, and feather respectable women and men under the gaze of disloyalty. There was an apparent cessation of manpower in some of our people to the North, but it was not the case that this late innovation of mob rule has caused numerous people of our Race to start North, where their property rights can be secure, where their lives are safe, in their rights by the strong arm of the law, and where government is run for the benefit of the governed, and where 100 wives and children of the soil are France will receive protection of their homes, and the business and professional men are secure in their activities.

THE`CHICAGO DEFENDER President Wilson Declares Against Mob Rule President Wilson Declares Against Mob Rule Continued from Page 1 plead guilty in an editorial to the fact that it had, among other powerful women seen in using its influence to suppress men, that it had sat supinely and by silently acquiesced in the murder of innocent women, men and children without a Tribune Repanta However, often the motives of interest take precedence over and operate distinctively from the motives of distress. The probes of the long and protracted siege of the mob violence on the part of the Chishna Tribune was prompted by a motive of interest. There is a paragraph that might challenge the mind of thinkers in the case of the lynchings which the editorial cites the lynchings in Prager, a German, at Collinsville, III, and then speaks as follows: "A few hundred enraged men in that small city of a small Illinois town, by the lynching and yielding to raiders, trived an episode which stamps a lawless ferocity upon American nature." How strange that a few enraged citizens in a small Illinois town, by the lynching and yielding to raiders, trived an episode which stamps a lawless ferocity upon American nature, when just a few short weeks ago a woman who, in two months more, would have given birth to a child, was trived by the unborn Extricated by a trampled to death on the ground." But this hideous crime did not awaken the Tribune to rise in its best conscience and proclaim this damnable travesty in the city of an innocent people "as stamping out a lawless ferocity upon American nature." It was once said that "if the light continues to burn, the vilest sinner will burn, and probably has again repeated itself, and probably will tribune should not be judged so harshly. President's Appeal Timely The subject of the communication from the chief executive of the nation necessarily leads to an inquiry into the circumstances under which this belief is supported for the appeal an appeal from a personage of so high standing as our honored President will be disregarded unless a law is placed at the state books making lynching a federal offense, or is substantiated by the fact that the same wires which conveyed the appeal of the President for the stability and order, the country was informed that the law of Racie, including two women, had been tarred and feathered and told to leave town under the guise of disloyalty. This happened in the state of Mississippi, known for its lawlessness and savagery. The appeal of the President, asking for an abstention of violence and the restoration of the stability of the government, will be one of the most people, will stand as one of the most noteworthy declarations of his administration. This statement will give us a new sense of security in life and prosperity the Southland. He deserves the moral support of all lovers of democracy who believe that our country should take action in democratizing the world. The President's message states as follows: "My Fellow Countrymen; "I take the liberty of addressing you upon a subject which so vitally affects the honor of the nation and the very integrity of our institutions that I trust you will think me justified in speaking very plainly about it. "I allude to the mob spirit which has recently here and there very frequently shown in my single region, but in many and in separated parts of the country. There have been many lychings, and every one of them has been a blow at the heart of ordered law and humane justice. I am a man of good government of the states and nation ready to do their duty. We are at this very moment fighting lawless passion. Germany has outlawed herself among the nations because she has disregarded the laws and made lychers of her armies. Lynchers emulate her disgraceful. I for my part, am anxious to see every community in America rise above that pride and a fixed resolution which no man or set of men can afford to despise. "We proudly claim to be the champions of democracy. If we really are, in deed and in truth, let us see to it we do not discredit our own. I say plainly that we should take part in the action of a mob or give it any sort of countenance, is no true son of this great democracy, but its betrayer, and does more to discredit her by that single disloyalty of her people than the words of her statesmen or the sacrifices of her heroic boys in the trenches can do to make suffering peoples believe her to be their savior. How shall we commend democracy to the acceptance of other peoples if we disloyalty of her people after all, no protection to the weak? Every mob contributes to German lies about the United States what her most gifted lilars cannot improve upon by the way of calumny. They can at least be given a pen in Germany except in times of revolution, when law is swept away. "I, therefore, very earnestly and solemnly beg that the governors of all the states, the law officers of every state, the law officers of women of every community in the United States, all who revere America and wish to keep her name without stain or reproach, will co-operate—not passively merely, but actively and watchfully, make an end, of this government, of all evil," the community does not countenance it. "I have called upon the nation to put its great energy into this war, and it has responded—responded with a spirit and a genius for action that has inspired us and upon its men and women everywhere, to see to it that its laws are kept inviolate, its fame unturned. Let us show our utter contempt for the things among the wars of history by showing how those who love liberty and right and justice and are willing to lay down their lives for them upon foreign fields, stand ready also to illusory attack them, to show the things at home which they wish to see established everywhere as a blessing and protection to the peoples who have never known the privileges of liberty and self-germany, as a champion of liberty, either for ourselves or for the world who does not reverence and obey the laws of our own beloved land, whose laws we ourselves have made, and the standard of the enemies of his country whom he affects to despise.

Transopted into the French ranks the black soldier brings with him all his native strength and courage, no doubt the most indispensable qualities of France, in spite of an intensive centurion's greater development in the modern means of communication, the young military recruits have not lost all trace of their native provinces when they reach the barracks. The commander sees how he can bring out what is best of them. He also knows that a regiment composed entirely of Bretons cannot be led in the same manner as a division composed of Meridionaux, and he will be careful to regulate his knowledge of the temperament of the men placed under his command. The black has transformed his conception of the service into a religion, the strongest of all religions—to which he abandons himself with absolute confidence. He has hastitates to apply the term mercenary to the men of the splendid Troupes Noires of France. This religion has its rule, discipline: its priest, the chief, the abductors in the eyes of the black all the time, the black grasped in his present stage of development. The prestige of the service comes before everything, even before that family spirit which is the very black, the social black for the service he will unhesitatingly fight against the Arab—the Muhammadans will even rise against Marabouts. "Ca y a Service!" they will answer, and service signifies to them the "order given by somebody after whom ones do not speak." The war has revealed to the black a new world. It will certainly have a considerable repercussion on the state and the people, and it will disintegrate the "family" thus giving the tirailleur an even greater taste of individualism, with all its multiple consequences. He will no doubt have acquired the qualities of civilization, which he will have developed, and venture will have been greatly developed. Last but not least, he will have formed a conception of state, of the power of Europe, and of the people of France, which may well change his entire outlook. The black forces which have been fighting for France in the present war number some 120,000 men. They have shown the most indomitable courage, and which has won for them the admiration The Blue Jay Oil & Gas Company, incorporated under the Blue Sky laws of the State of Missouri and capitalized for $100,000, makes its initial offering of shares to the public at This Company is only five months old and has never advertised in papers to sell shares, nor than $1,000 of public money.

Among them should be remembered the fathers of the Fama (kling) Sansanding, who during the French conquest of the Soudan, was one of the most devoted and faithful friends of France. This young man was a soldier of the Eccléant tailon of Senegalese troops, and who has won the croix de guerre, is one of the recruiting officers who have accompanied M. Bailse Diagne on his mission. The Prince of Bailse, the descendant of two kings, had demanded that he should be allowed to take up service for France, after his kingdom had been placed under the control of the French, even won a pension as a junior officer in the French army. When the present war broke out he obtained permission to send his troops to France, where he was sent the course of a fierce assault, by the side of his comrade, Adjutant Toure, who was also the son of one of the most celebrated enemies of France, the Sambat Toure—The Black Napoleon. If Germany based any hopes on the disloyalty of the black populations up until now, we now have the full extent of her mistake. For, from the Arabs to the humbleest of the peoples of the world, we have unhesitably proved their allegiance to France, by sharing with all the other armies of Europe the vexilism and glory of fighting for a good cause. 13 Sons in Army; Raleigh, N.

OUR PRESIDENT HAS SPOKEN AMIDST THE MULTIPLICITY OF DUTIES that fall to the lot of President Woodrow Wilson he has found time to raise his voice against mob violence, thereby placing the official stamp of disapproval on this, the most dangerous form of lawlessness. It has been patent to all that the mob spirit in this country has grown to alarming proportions and the record of lynchings and other barbarous crimes committed in the last few years hear testimony to the backward trend of the people residing in sections where these orgies occur. How to save the people from themselves has been a question much discussed by individuals and by circles other than official. The state rights question has always loomed up as the bugbear, and when, apparently, a constitutional right was involved, where the Fourteenth and Fifteenth 'Amendments to the Constitution of the United States were not being observed, there has been art inclination to gloss over the matter for fear of offending a certain voting class. And, too, the aggressors being superior in numbers, made and enforced all the laws as they saw fit, the under dog had to take what he got, whether that be a kick or a smile. We have had Presidents, many of them, both Republican and Democrat. We have expected much from the one and received comparatively little; from the other we have expected nothing and up to recently received nothing. So the coming of this message from President Wilson, a Democrat, was like a bolt out of a clear sky, a bolt intended to strike our enemies a stinging blow; a bolt intended to bring these wreckers of order and law to a realization of the fact that they are deserving of the same consideration from true American citizens as that shown the Huns, who are endeavoring to kill democracy. Credit to whom credit is due. And this act of the President's will do much toward lessening the antagonistic feeling that has found place in the breasts of twelve million American citizens. We appreciate the delicate position he has been in since taking the chair. Before his first election he gave promise of being a big, broad, independent-thinking man, one who would be President of all, not a part, of the people. Perhaps he was too weak to withstand the hounding of the wolves surrounding him, for he failed signally when opportunity offered to throw out the lifeline to those who needed it most. But it is never too late to make amends, and we are inclined to believe our President intends from now on to do all in his power to make amends for his tardiness in seeing that justice is meted out to all citizens alike. We congratulate President Wilson, not because he is doing his duty, but because he is the first man occupying the highest office in our land since Lincoln who not only has realized that no country can long survive that makes of one citizen a man, of the other a vassal, and has had the backbone to publicly denounce this evil. Perhaps, after all, we are on the eve of true democracy. Who knows? Our Place in Public Institutions Our Place in Public Institutions BELLEVUE HOSPITAL, New York City, the second largest institution of the kind in this country, has opened its doors to our young physicians, Dr. Virginia C. Giles and other appointment as interne. The right for representation in this court throughout the country has been going on quietly but persistently for many years, and then when an applicant has a man's full share of backbone and a spirit of war, does the general public hear through the newspapers of the glaring injustice of the officers of these institutions chosen by the general public and paid out of the public. One recalls the unsuccessful effort made by Dr. Roscoe C. Giles admission to this same institution some three years ago, and to the Chicago Muni University, in effect in both instances was based solely on account of color, not understanding that not only has the distinction of being the first one of our number to graduate from Cornell University, but won first place in the civil service examinations. The service was synonymous with fairness, but in the hands of unscrupulous politicians it is nothing more than a cloak to cover up a petty system of grafting. Throughout the country there are thousands of public institutions we are taxed to support yet receive no direct or indirect benefits from. For instance, we are here in Chicago uses fifty house physicians and three times that number of nurses and another hundred physicians can be found, and in all this aggregation a doctor is to be seen. And this institution is located in democratic Chicago. Some of us are paying taxes of one sort or another for the support of just such physicians has the reputation of being the medical center of the country and our men are recognized as being among the best in their respective specialties. A few prejudiced people holding positions are responsible for the shuttling of important public institutions in our faces. The general public is little concerned save when they encounter press horrible pictures of "burly Negroes" examining white "ladies". What about the ignorant white ruffians examining our women? What's good for the goose are credited with holding the balance on the men we help to elect, whether they be black or white, men who deserve to see that we are not discriminated against in any form whatsoever? What use are laws on civil rights if those in authority refuse to enforce them? What use are we at liberty and permit these things to go on. We have the power to stop it. Why not use it? IN ST. LOUIS a number of the large office buildings employ our young ladies and factory workers. One kindly disposed old lady of the other race was so shocked on hearing that she wrote a sulphur letter to the daily press denouncing the narrowness of her people. We could tell the dear old soul a few other startling things, but what's the use? DON'T LET AUGUST make you forget to lay in a good supply of coal. If you fall after all these warnings even a policeman will not listen to your troubles when those ice blasts strike here from the North. Go. THE ALLIES have the Huns on the run and WE are right along with them going over the top.

By Ben Baker There is a tide in the affairs of men Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. —Shakespeare. Old Father Hannibal, Uncleissant L'Ouverture and Brother Crispus Attucks, the heroes of Shawr 54th Massachusetts or San Juan Hill and Carrizal must have looked down with their arena of human conflict when the darker-skinned men of valor, sons of America and of France, pointed and led the way to German rout and to victory. Who are these sons of America? Ah, how well we do know them by name and station and faith and hope. "Bone of our home, flesh of our flesh," our kindred, our playmates, classmates we know the stuff of which they are made, and we know that all hell cannot stop them! Did they shipper, falter, hesitate? No, they even asked to be sent to the hells堡. Can you beat 12? Take not our word for where they were. The Germans themselves, offended, moved, motivated, announced where our boys were. Hang out the flag—Old Glory—and let it swing to the breeze the mess to the true son of freedom the first to take the oath to the first line. Tell it all the hellions of the south, they who boast of "superiority" and who in the french glee mock the scouters of the north, and especially those who sin by silence and faith and skeptism within our own group; they who have been led to believe the lies of our enemies until they see no good in themselves.

Van Gelder, president of the Empire Mattress Co. of Chicago, Illinois, the organization that produces Sears, Roebuck & Co. Chicago, Illinois, wrote a letter to Mr. Julius Rosenwald, president of Sears, Roebuck & Co., calling attention to the splendid results secured for foreign labor as the result of the subduction "labor" for that which had been employed prior to the stressful conditions of the war. Permission has been secured for its publication. It is a great honor to be named president of Colored men and women who have been offered the opportunity of working in this large mattress factory where heretofore foreign labor almost disappeared. The letter written by Mr. Van Gelder to Mr. Rosenwald follows: Empire Mattress Co., Office of the President. Office of the President. July 16, 1918. Mr. Julius Rosenwald, care Sears, Roebuck & Co., Chicago, Ill. My Dear Mr. Rosenwald: Our conversation regarding the labor challenge in my factory. I shall briefly outline it in Beginning with three years ago, the employees consisted mainly of Russians, but we knew much different branches of our work, different workers for me, in most cases from their immigrant stage, varying from a native to an ignorant lot, eringing in their servility and totally unacustomed to being treated decently. However, as they grew older, they had a good treatment they assumed an insoluble air of independence and became unreasonable in their demands. not only that, but to commend wilt and shame known as the American mattress maker and workman. They were generally irresponsible, frequently getting drunk thereby causing problems. After the war had been in progress for some time and immigration ceased, conditions became critical so I looked for a new job. I met a South on a buying trip I heard of a Colored machinist whom I forthwith saw and bired at him a higher salary of course, than he was getting South. He proved satisfactory to such a degree that I hired all Colored men for the repair work at the head of same. While he and the other men receive high wages (much higher than they hoped for) yet the men were seldom duly and the repairs on machinery is less than half it was under the old regime, who were not feeling any interest in the machinery in imminent production and in their carelessness broke the machinery, thereby increasing the cost of the product. The amount was the first step in the Colored labor. I then sent for a Colored mattress maker from the South and he was an amateur. With the white men he soon displayed his ability. His workmanship compared favorably with the best and there was not perfectly conversant with. In this way I hired more and more Colored men until they were placed in the amongst white employees, with the most gratifying results. They occupy positions ranging from common hustlers to week to mechanics at $30.00 per week. There is one branch of the work known as tutting, which is done by machinery. The operation of these machines can be done by one can do and we-had boys on them. We were beginning to have trouble in securing boys. American boys were in trouble not to be had, so in looking over the situation I suddenly saw a large field I could draw from. Colored men are successful as my experience with the machines, and it occurred to me that it would be a good plan to place them on the tutting machines. This experiment proved as successful as my experience with the machines on the mattress filling machines, which requires deftness and considerable Judgment. Success of the entire project so encouraged me that I took a step further and placed Colored women in the sewing department amongst white women and things are running very well. The Colored men and women have taken hold of things very readily, being apt and willing; their working condition is excellent; higher wages than ever before. There is a feeling of satisfaction all around. They are pleasant and appreciate the conditions they are working in, and they have a positive attitude as much as with the actual job.

MISSISSIPPI No Cases Are Diagnosed and No Prescriptions Given in These Weekly Articles We wish to call your attention to the importance of the coessless, constant pump situated in the trunk. This pump nets as a great food station, it is using point and has a large territory to supply, to supply tires, feet, legs, l1mb s., fingers, hands, arms, or in other words, the tools. your attention to the importance of the consciousness, a constant acting pump acting as the upper part of your trunk. This pump acts as a great force for the body a kind of distributing point and has a large terribly conducive to consisting of the toes, feet, legs or hands, hands or arms, other words, the upper and lower limbs of extremities then, too, it supplies that great central home office—that rules worlds, that one has it said is the greatest of all things in the world. "In the world there is nothing great but man." In man there is nothing great but water. This session you term the heart. Many term it the seat of, of spirit, courage and emotion; but we liken it to a pump because its actions are simple: it chambers of a pump. This pump has chambers of a pump. This pump performs a very important function in keeping up the circulation of the blood, the blood stream carries nourishment, the body. When you consider that nearly fifths of our body is made up of liquids or some form of water, you can readily understand the importance of keeping this pump in the form of condition. If you treat this pump right, if you give it sufficient rest, and if you prevent or gormandize, especially heart disease, keep away from alcoholies, if you do it this pump or overexercise it, it will go on pumping of beating at the rate more than 60 times the more and less times per minute for 100 seconds 100 years without conveying to your mind that there is the least courage to trouble in this organ—but it depends largely how you observe the laws of hygiene. The Composition of the Heart The heart is largely composed of muscular tissue, and, by the way, the muscular structure of the heart is the most important of the heart are seriously damaged by such as rheumatism, syphilis or any of the serious infectious diseases you feel. You may be diagnosed or a crippled heart, thus handicapped you at the time you need a strong organ to supply the necessary food to sustain you. You may need energy needed in carrying on your work. You may receive a blow and thus injure your heart, but the most common cause of heart failure is those who are indiscretion in heart strain. You will find as a rule that athletes are short lived, and they very often have heart problems. You recall a young man a few years ago. Robinson left Thursday for Columbus.

He will move his family to New Orleans, where he is preparing to go into government service. who in his early college days was a splendid athlete; later on in life he developed into a champion tennis player; later on in life he admired of all who channeled playing tennis. This young man was advised one day to take it easy—but he did not head, he disobeyed, and he was not a great player of glorious runs, but he strained his heart—his heart gave way suddenly, he began coughing, face pale, heads of his nose, and he forched his face. His eyes lost their blue became blue, finger nails pale, heart action rapid and feeble and he was no longer the young man was dead. In this he played a successful game—by his disobedience he overtaxed his heart. He reckoned that his muscles in the great central station in the city would such disaster will never overtake any of our readers. This young man was overconfident. He thought that he could play fairly forties just as he did in his early twenties—during his college days. You should remember that as a rule that of drownings is usually headed by the most daring swimmer, the overconfident man; and this is also true in all automobile accidents. It is the experience that furnishes most of the automobile accidents and wrecks. It is the engineer who has grown careless and careless with his load of human cargo, who heads the list of most every railroad crash, and so it is with the young athlete, who lives over-self-confident fellow; the fellow who laughs at the physician or his guardian when advised to let up and live life, that die early and fill a grave number of the newly made graves. **Things to Do—The Age Element** The man or woman who is fifty or more years of age should remember that heart has been constantly on the job for years. That his or her blood vessels have been at work constantly, and that the kidneys as eliminating and circulating are little or no rest, and that they are not in their function, not rapidly and suddenly, but gradually, and the wise thing to do is to have careful examinations of your heart, lungs, kidneys, and have a good diet at least every four to six months. This is highly necessary for the reason that at the age of 40 and beyond men and women are engaged in a most strenuous life, and have evolved to involve upon them—they are often required to do much thinking, directing and managing of great affairs; and times these organs give way suddenly where on the other hand a careful early examination will detect the beginning of trouble and a most valuable life; a worthy citizen of the community and a carefree organ rather than wait to have they ceased to function properly. The Negro people of this country as well as other countries are sadly lacking in education and appreciation, or of good physical well-being. The present war has tended to the importance of being well fit, either for the colors or for the factory work or for general manual labor. The physically well fitted are much in demand. But to the war the nation was apparently degenerately physically, morally and mentally. The condition prevailing now seems to be knocking us into our senses, emphasizing the importance of the strong arm and the fact that we need to be the dawning of the under man, but he must preserve his health, live a good life physically in order to meet the demands, and by living the high standards of the pump located in the upper part of the trunk up to the highest and most efficient standard.
