WIFE BARES ST
John Glover, aged 48, shot and instantly killed Edward Young Saturday, Oct. 5, between the hours of six and seven o'clock at his residence, 5260 Wabash avenue. From the evidence given at the coroner's jury, which was held at ten o'clock Monday morning at the undertaking establishment of Ernest H. Williamson, 5028 S. State street, there seemed to have been little provocation for the shooting.
Wift of Dead Man Testifies
Mrs. Roberta Young, wife of the deceased, testified that she married Edward Young on Aug. 15 last, and that he was 32 years of age and his vocation was that of a chauffeur. She asserted that he came home Saturday about five o'clock apparently under the influence of liquor, and upon entering the house found his wife and Mr. Glover in close conversation in the kitchen. Mr. Glover is said to have remarked: "We were just talking about you." To this remark Mr. Young took exception and indicated his anger by violent utterances in reply. He
ALL COLUMBUS
HEARS ROSCOE
Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 11.—It was a great and enthusiastic multitude that greeted Col. Roscoe Conkling Simmons at the Chamber of Commerce Friday night. And it was a great speech that the statesman-orator made. The third time in a year that he has been to Columbus, he held the best for the last. "I am somewhat familiar," he said, "with the general issues involved in the present war, but I am entirely familiar with what is involved in it when that Race for whom I speak comes into view. The particular thing I am fighting for is to get myself and my Race introduced into the proper circles of the society of mankind." "Go on," cried a lady when Col. Simmons threatened to stop, and then for another half hour he went on, really "carried on." Dr. E. W. Moore presided and the great audience, directed by Sam Stewart, made music for the whole State of Ohio. Col. Simmons was presented by Attorney Hughes, candidate for the general assembly.
"When the war came," said Col. Simmons, "the question was asked: 'What will the Negro do?' Well, Henry Johnson and Needham Roberts answered for us. Now the question is: 'What is the Negro fighting for?' I will answer that. I will answer it in a few words, standing in the midst of the sorrows of the womanhood of my Race. We are fighting for daybreak in God's land of light.
And on through with words that lifted everybody up, whites as well as his own.
Held Levee in Capitol
Upon his arrival in the city Col. Simmons paid Gov. Cox a visit. The outer offices of the governor looked like a caption room when Col. Simmons was big. Everybody wanted to see him make his hands—Supreme Court state officials, soldiers and the paper men.
save of applause swept over in the Chamber of Comms was announced that Col. dedicate the new Y. M. December.

was taken upstairs and quieted. He later went to the bathroom, and in a short space of time four shots rang out in rapid succession. Mrs. Young ran upstairs and found her bushland lying partly out of the bathroom door gasping for breath. He died before medical aid could be summoned.
Mrs. Glover Tells of Shooting
Mrs. Marcela Glover, the wife of the man who committed the crime, testified that she lived at 5260 Wabash avenue and that they roamed on the second floor, their room for being opposite that of the bath. That her husband said to her about seven o'clock that he was going out to make a call and that she did not see a gun in his hand at the time of his departure, and that to her knowledge gun was kept in the room, but then soon after he closed the door she heard repeated reports of gun fire, and upon opening the door of the room discovered that her husband had shot Mrs. Young.
Other Evidence Heard
Mrs. Violet Westbrook, who said she was proprietor of the rooming-house, testified that she was in the boiler-room at the time of the murder, and that upon hearing someone screaming she ran upstairs and found Edward Young dead. She chimed to have known no reason why Glover should have killed the deceased beyond the argument they had in the afternoon, and up to that time, to her best knowledge, they had been good friends.
Adelle Duncan was called and testified that she lived at the same number but was in her room asleep at the time of the homicide and did not know what had taken place.
Eugene Brown, 4764 Federal street, to whose house the defendant went after the shooting, was called and testified that John Glover came to his house about 7:30, telling him that he had had a little trouble and had shot Young, and asked him to accompany him to the police station, which he did. On their arrival at the station Detective Sergeant M. P. Parker took Glover into custody, taking from him a statement which purported to tell the story of the tragedy. In this statement Glover avers that he was 48 years old and had served 26 years in the U. S. army. He acknowledged having shot the deceased, contending that it was in self-defense. He was held to the grand jury for murder without bonds.

FOR HAIR THAT WILL USE PALM CREA.
The only safe and guaranteed straightener on Mr. W. would be a very handsome young man if it wasn't for his awfully bad hair, wouldn't he? Oh, he's all right now; he had his baker treat his hair with Palm Cream, and now he is simply a dream. Our Palm Cream will not only straighten hair, but will keep it straight. Water or change of climate will not affect it. We have thousands and thousands of men today—men in all walks of life throughout this country, South America, the West Indies and various parts of Africa—using our goods. It is not always that a manufacturer can succeed with his goods in his own home town. He often has to seek help far away. But not so with us. We have succeeded in our home. If you know a barber in New York, write and ask him what he thinks of Palm Cream. Palm Oil is an accessory to Palm Cream, as it grows the hair and keeps it beautiful. If your hair is harsh and dry or brittle it needs Palm Oil. If it is sick, stubborn and will not grow it needs Palm Oil. Palm Oil is not that soft, greasy mess used by so many people for the hair. It is dry and neat; it will not grease your hat, but will give your hair that beautiful, silky, glossy effect so much desired by everyone. Big inducements offered to agents. Special rates to barbers.

Col. Denison Speaks
Too much credit cannot be given to Dr. J. Frank Armstrong for the successful termination of the program. It requires the forces of the west side in the interest of the fourth Liberty bay.
The speaker for the occasion, Major T. Gordon Sanford of the "Royal Army Great Britain," was unavoidably detained by the authorities, however, Col. Franklin A. Delson, formerly of the Eighth Regiment, now of the 370th Infantry, who is in this country on sick leave, was asked to deliver the message and responded in a most creditable manner. The success of the occasion was typical of the whole-hearted and patriotic spirit of the citizens of the west side and bespeaks zeal and courageous commitment to the loyalty and devotion to the cause of their country has never been questioned.
Special and commendable acknowledgment must be made of the very excellent effort put forth by Rev. L. Armstrong, the pastor of the church; Leroy Johnson, George O. Jones, Wm.

Mr. Robert S. Abbott, Editor the Chic-
ago Defender, Chicago, Ill.-Les États
Unis.-My Dear Mr. Abbott, "the
Fender" arrived in our town on the day
and was joyously received and
read and re-read by all. The incipi-
ent made me think of you and I
thought that perhaps you would
be as glad to hear
from us as we were glad to hear
from you.
I regret very much that owing to the rigidity of the censor, I am not permitted to give you an inter-
Lieut. Norvell give you an interesting account of some of our experiences in the trenchments; they are numerous and interesting that I find France to be the innest country in the world. If I should be fortunate enough to be spared to return to civil life again I shall have to stay for publication on the subject. At present I am not ready to discuss the subject as freely as I should like, but suffice it to say that I have found France, notwithstanding the condition, an infinitely more agreeable me to live in than my own country.
Doubtless you have followed the news of this date and have seen that the greatest successes our troops have met with all along the line. Our regiment played its part well and has met with many of our brave men. Harvey J. Taylor was wounded the other day by a grenade. He was wounded painfully, but I am glad to say not seriously, and is convalescing now. A most peculiar thing has happened to our regiment recently which has caused our great sorrow. We am not at liberty to discuss. However, what it is, if you have not already heard, you soon will. Floyd Gibbons of the Chicago Tribune paid us a visit a couple of months ago while in rest billets and I had the good fortune to write a brief which he wrote about us. I saw in 1915 that was sent to one of our boys. Tell the friends and relatives of the regiment not to wait for us to write to them, as we often are so situated that we cannot write. A letter from home is the greatest pleasures, and it is even a great hear from even a casual acquaintance.
Nearly all of us speak French fluently now, as we are brigaded with a French division and necessity has been pleased to receive the Defence minister, if I am not asking too much. Well, Mr. Abbott. I must bring my letter to a close, as I am in constant contact with no much and thereby bringing the real existence of our existence) the censor, down upon my head. Were it not for him I could write a very interesting letter indeed. Incremental gas officer, Lieut. Henote Lepine. In his duty to insure our safety against German gas attacks, and to see that all of the men are properly equipped and protected against gas attacks. He is very pleased sometimes he gets up in the middle of the night with his bally gas alarms.
Give my best regards to Carey Lewis and Tony Largest. Tell Tony that when I return I hope to be a more accomplished liar than he is. With very best wishes, I remain very truly yours, ANNELEY B. NORVELL, 370th Infantry, J. S. American Expeditionary Forces, Somewhere in France.

Work of War Work Council of the National Y.W.C.A.
New York, Dec. 11.—Comfortably situated in a pleasant, airy corner on the seventh floor of the big new Y. W. C. A. building that embraces one whole block on Lexington avenue, between 52d and 52d streets, a reporter for the Defender recently found Miss Bowles, executive secretary, in charge of the International Young Woman's Christian Association, surrounded by her efficient corps of helpers, including Miss Josephine V. Pinyon of the War Work houses, and Mrs Ethel J. Kindler of office worker. Miss Bowles' main duty at present is executive of the War Work Council, Colored work.
War Work Council Staff
Besides Miss Bowles there are sixty-three others who constitute the gulf under the War Work Council. Colored work, recently formed, and the operations of these ladies are regular duties. With this efficient corps of
A.
Eva Bowles
workers throughout the country a most commendable work, under the leadership of Miss Bowles, has been appointed the National W.C. A. 100th Lexington instructor in the following members of Miss Bowles staff: Mary E. Jackson, Crystal Bird and Mrs. Cordella A. Winn. Two field workers, Mary Bellecher, St. Louis, and F. F. Bellecher, Va. are also attached to the staff, while the remaining members are local workers, distributed throughout the various camps. The great work and dedication of the W.C. A. workers are doing for the Race cannot be too leisurely healed.
Brief History
Going back a few years ago it was explained that there were affiliated with he American committee of the Young Women's Christian Association so that women could participate. There were evidences of city associations for Colored women at a much earlier period. When the national board was formed it inherited the feeble work attempted among the women in New York. It was more important, Washington and Philadelphia. Under Miss Dodge's leadership the question came up, as to how to promote the work among girls and women and soon Miss Dodge called a conference to discuss the southern white women to discuss the matter. After much discussion these women stated that they were quite anxious and willing to help the Colored girls in the southern states, but they did not think it best to attempt it at that time. However, they did decide that work could be organized and supervised from heddquarters. An attempt was made to work upon the strength of the women, which were formed, which started out under apparently favorable conditions.
Conference Called
One was organized with 500 paid up members and with an enthusiasm which could not be equaled anywhere. As the result of being left alone and not linked to their central association time was worn on a short time. As time went on these changes social consciousness between the races in the South and the feeling of co-operation began to grow. In 1914 under the wedge leadership of Miss Dodge, it was decided to call another group of women to attend the time not of southern white women alone, but of both races. It was to have met in February, 1915. However, at the end of 1914 Miss Dodge passed away. From headquarters furiously rushed to the South where were made and instead of meeting at headquarters this group of white and Race-women met on southern soil in Louisville, Ky., October, 1915. This was a representative gathering of the women whose viewpoint was acknowledged to be valuable, Mr. Thomas Jesse Jones of the bureau of education, Mr. Tranwick of the International Young Men's Christian Association, and Mr. John Little of the southern Pesthysician Association. In the South two nights were spent in thrashing this problem and the result was the following findings, which were submitted to the national board: 1. That it was believed that the time had come for the women to be composed of white and Colored women from or of the South. 2. That it was realized the need of trained leadership among young Race women. 3. That it be recommended that the student conference for inspiration and for development of such leadership in the near future.
Conference at Louisville, Ky.
In June, 1916, the first student conference was held, which could not possibly have materialized without the Louisville conference.

The president and general secretary of the central association is the chairman and secretary of the branch are ex-officio members of this committee.

The branch retary is appointed by the central association with the approval of the branch. By virtue of her position she is the staff of the central association, which is responsible for her salary.

It is impossible to publish scores of interesting letters receive, from the press, especially suitable for two reasons, especially the first—many of them contain facts and cite experiences that the War Department would rather not at this juncture obtain publicity; the second, as a way of liking to, space would not permit of it.
It is gratifying to learn that the Defender is the cause of much pleasure to our boys at the front, and every boy should know doing the boys a favor if they would do the copy, after they have read it, to them. This is a simple matter, and should meet with ready response. The following letter is published to show in the New York Times and Eighth Regiment is held in France:

PROGRAM MAKING
More Durables, Holt
In reviewing concerts there are more phases than one to be considered and the artist must be able to individual qualities of the artist, for a badly selected program is disastrous to even the best trained musician and to one less attainments a mistake this kind of
Individual Limitation
The primal tenet in program making and one which should be strictly adhere to is the performer should select music well in which to give the proper care to personal limitations, as: Voice quality and range and muscular piano or violin control. The performer should also program varied in style and breadth, but saney keeps within his individual. The Romanticists of today include Paderwicker, the piano; Kreisler, the violin; and Galli Curcel, the voice; however, the versatility of these artists entails that they must be prepared for any type of music they desire, yet their programs are confined mainly to the specific style which admits of exquisite performance and interpretation of composer or school.
Program Grouping
A program can and should be a work of art with its own beauty of unity, artistry, and artists select numbers which produce psychological effects upon the audience and this procedure is permissible if properly balanced. The uniqueness of a Liszzt rhapsody occurring as a first or second number can be imagined, but this actually happened on a program of recent date, which extended mention in review but over a period of time like having the meat before the soup. The usual piano formula is: the "technical" piece, the emotional, the technical, and finally, bravourous. This formula has been evolved from a study of "audience psychology." A group of concert goers begin with altering and attaching an eligible to be caught in the heroic mood: the reaction then leaves them dull and they must be cuddled by the audience appealing in the ear, and above all must be sounded. And at that reaction stage give something the layman can understand, for all are not professionals who so graciously contribute to the success of the
Program Duration
No musician should arrange a program to last more than an hour and be able to play well of the audience, for if you are uninteresting the suffering public is soon relieved, and if you are a successor, it will all be applied for to stamp him as having individuality.

Our women have been urged to join in the great Liberty loan parade which will take place in the loop this coming weekend. Promises to be the largest that ever took place in Chicago and as all other races will be represented, it will not do. The parade is scheduled to start from Van Buren and Michigan at 1 oclock Saturday, afternoon, march 12th, from the west on Randolph to State street, south on State to Jackson boulevard to La-Saïne street, north on LaSalle to Rancho del Carmen, south on Franklin, where the parade will disband.
The women especially are making a feature of the parade. They have been invited to participate by women as possible in so short a time. Please urge all Colored women who desire to march to meet at the Idle-House Sunday day, October 11, at 8 o'clock sharp. If there are any gold star mothers among us please have them communicate with me at once. Gold star women are invited to march to have lost a husband, son or brother in war. Silver stars are those who have some one wounded in the war. And the only means we have of reaching our women in time to make a creditable showing is to ask our editors to give prominent space to this notice.

Night Work—The employment of women on night shifts should be necessary protection, mutually and physically. Rest Periods—No woman should be employed for a longer period than should be required, without a break for a meal and rest. Rest periods should be allowed in the middle of each working period. Women should least thirty minutes should be allowed for a meal, forty-five minutes or an hour if the working day exceeds eight hours.
Place of Meals—Meals should not be eaten in workrooms.
Saturday Half Holidays—The Saturday half holiday should be considered as essential for women under all conditions.

women. The standards of wages hitherto prevailing for men in the process should not be lowered where women render equivalent service. The women should be given thecesses should, of course, not be longer than those formerly worked by men.
Tenement House Work-No work shall be given out to be done in rooms used for living purposes or in rooms directly connected with living rooms.
The most vital features of the standard are the call for a working day not to exceed eight hours, prohibition of time for late inadequate allowances of time for wear and adequate allowances of tenement house work and, finally, equal pay for women when used to replace men. The range of this standard is certain ultimately to affect every woman in this country who works at all. Once established, it is perfectly safe to say it will never be lowered. On the conclusion will be to bring the conditions of a woman workers up to this level. It marks another step toward the day when it will no longer be possible for women to bring the conditions of work, either as to hours or pay, whether in office, factory or home. To help make this standard unviable, we must task women for women who have the vision of the new day. But women themselves must learn its value and importance before it can become the general rule.

You see, these big legoo fellows that rolls in at Scholring Park, but somehow, even with big league ball curtailed, they wish to clutch the crowd under assumed names. The crowd under assumed names—alias Wright—for fair, and as the tiger a genuine blown in the bottle rough-neck, with a southern cracker appearance, his retorts aroused the wrath of Dillon, Empire Goeckle has his troubles in preparing the two from to the mat.
Clements—alias Smith—also proved some disturber and was promptly from the grounds. We learned that Clement was named $800, all told, the American scars in his discipline; his offense in this case was that the league catcher persisted in holding his nose with his fingers, of course indicating that the decisions of course were of the decayed egg variety. Of course the big league battery was up in the air until the Giants's half at bat in the eighth. Mendez, the first man up, kicked. Whitworth received a wallop in the ones apologized—Barber sacrificed, out, out. Moss, out, o'Leary to Lehvet; Duncan walked, Torrentti walked; Francis was hit by the pitcher; Dixon walked; the ninth man up in that inning, went out to LeLiver; results, four passes, two hit batsmen, three scores and the game.

Y. M. C. A. ELEVEN DEFEAT WHITE BOYS
Camp Upton, N. Y., Oct. 11—The parade ground over in the third development of Camp Upton was filled with a large and enthusiastic number of fans. The last Saturday afternoon it wished the inaugural football game of the season played between the battalion of the third development (white) and the third hit, but 314 eleven. Through the hardy players of the team, coaching of our players, the white battalion was completely overwhelmed, causing it to retire from the field of play before the game was over. During the play, however, there were numerous feats of skill, the crowd opportunity to use its lung power, especially so when Orr, the famous A. & M. college fullback, began sensational line plunging, and the team got by Half Back Thomas after a long run during the first ten minutes of play.
The white team, composed of playing members of exceptional individual brilliance, is, through its captain and coach, the most experienced through its coach, Secretary Stokes of the being speedily developed into a perfect playing machine. The personnel of the eleven as is follows: Corporal L. M. Harris, M. Harris, left back; Private M. Harris, left back; Private T. Hunt, center; Corporal J. Gomes, right guard; Private T. Jackson, right tackle; Private S. Kernel, right guard; Private T. Foster, quarterback; Private L. Foster, left half back; Private D. Orr, full back; Private S. Brooks, left half back.
VICTORY FOR A. B. C.'S
Armour's B. C.'s defeated the Bell Colts Sunday, Oct. 6, at Buetner Park before a large crowd by a score of 11-6. The Colts, C. C.'s walked from base to base, playing around the Colts, with Grant coming out with his strong batting, hitting two triples and one two-bagger and a nice single, with Hayes, formerly of the Philadelphia Eagles, like a shot out of a ride to second, killing eight men at second, while Pistol Pete at third, also of the Columbian Giants, let nothing pass his corner! He hit the third pitcher, struck out fifteen men in the inning, in the army, in the last inning caught in his right and center fielders to second base and left Mack, the left fielder, and told him to stop all three and Mack made the three put-outs, and the right fielder was at second singing "Over There." The crack A. B. C.'s will play Sunday the Armour Timekeepers (white) at 38th and Armitage, manager A. E. Bean is going to take a strong club and leave nothing undone.
The pictures of the A. B. C.'s were postponed on account of the sickness of the manager and absence of some of the players. Captain Fairel was once trying to hit him than he was hitting. The two are promised a theater party if they win from the Timekeepers Monday night, at the Grand Theater.
Columbus, O. Oct. 11- Sterling football team received a big surprise after a victory over Goodyear (white), 33 to 0.

This was the feature of (white) will back the Sterling team, the time in history a white man has backed a Race team.

BATTLING NELSON BROKE; ASKS AID FROM FRIENDS
Battling Nelson, once demon of the lightweight fighters, is flat broke. He is seriously ill at the St. Luke's hospital and without funds to employ principal and without assistance Motte tradition became public when he issued an appeal to friends of former days asking them to help him through in this crisis. He asserts that his father has an interest in the fight and is at Heweshill, Ill., his home, and refuses to aid him.
"Now I am going to find out what the public thinks of Battling Nelson," the man said. "I am not asking for any charity. All I would like is a return of some of the money I loaned out in the days of great prosperity. It may be unbelievable, but at the same time now have outstanding in one way or another will run close to $250,000."
It was Nelson who fought the late Joe Gans to a standstill. He came into possession of the downed Gans at Goldfield, New. Both men squandered their earnings, which ran into the million mark. A benefit was given in Baltimore, Md., recently for the aged mother of Joe Gans. Nelson is suffering from Spanish influenza.

BY YOUR UNCLE EPH
Well, how remarkable that South State street between Twenty-second and Thirty-ninth has become the mecca of police activity. Some one who is being ridden by the police every day is owned and operated by Colored men.
There are also two or three places of amusement that the chief of police has refused to grant license, giving as a rule that those fellows out there have caused the police to be "blessed." The those fellows referred to by the chief meant the Colored saloon men on the street. We wonder if the chief has ever heard of the Canary Grove, the Ternier's on a Trinity and Cottage Grove, Tierney's on a Trinity and Calumet or numerous other white saloon men who are constantly violating the law, yet he has recommended amusement licenses for them. The chief man of a small soul, who is governing by race prejudice instead of by bain and impartial adjudication of the law.
On Saturday night last two police-women, Anna Riley and Mary Schultz, visited several Chicago Grove avenue, (that is, we mean Colored places), picking up people's glasses, drinking out of them and ordering white people just to be in the course they just happened to be operating in where people will stand for it. They will, however, get in the right place some night, then Offices Schultz and Riley pay the taxes in the law, the money paid to these two police-women by the taxpayers of Chicago is absolutely thrown away. They are neither fit, by temperament, conduct nor by police, but by statute in the law, and—no wonder the number of high class, intelligent women who would accept a position on the police force. A police judge in Chicago wrote, Lawrence Wade, 3245 State street, was arrested a few days ago charged with robbery. Jeff Davis, 3212 Calumet avenue, was jailed for drug burglary, for disorderly conduct. He was released to Jeff Davis of Civil War fame. There was a little difference between

BASEBALL SHRAPNEL
Manager Joe Green and his ball team were interested onlookers at the game Sunday. Green has had a highly successful season. His club was given a traveling membership in both the Chicago and City League circuits. The team is one of the best members of the Intercity Baseball Association. Green's charges have engaged in contest with all the leading clubs around these parts and with the mighty Walker Ball upon the slab, the ball that was used by Joelist, Benton Harbor, Albany Park and Beloit well at bay. Next to "Rube" Foster, Green has, perhaps, the best team out West. The line-up has, respectively, few seasons, something that cannot be compared to other organization of ball tossers in the whole country. All of Green's men are engaged at essential employment and were so located long before the work began. In the roster of Green's team will be found players of much prominence. Horace Jenkins, the lad that the writer picked up when a mere boy and who played well in game his first year out, is doing outfits which he held with credit as a member of the American Giants. "Puss" Greene is perhaps the most prominent third baseman before the outfielder of rare skill. He is among the best of war time class, and we have our serious doubts if this aggregation can be surpassed when it comes to placing a pitcher upon the

The case involving the inhuman and brutal raid of the Pink theater, 27th and State street, led by Hugh McCormack, who was arrested several weeks ago, in which some 50 men and women were arrested and kept locked up for 36 hours without being booked, was called for trial before a judge. The court noon. The minions of the law used every method known to their class of policemen to secure a conviction. They happened, however, to be before a judge, who was accused of victims and one who believes in applying the acid tests of the law instead of race prejudice, as a result the entire party, who had been outraged by the utter-suprise policemen were discharged.
Pekin Conduct Good

be crafty enough to burglarize their way to the head of an aggregation of the name's players at once give daddy over the name, and the name's name supported, by good and efficient handling - it is not thought that it will prove an eye-sore to the extent that it is a gang of bronzed athletes' did things to our old soldiers' home team here. Since Gen.

Planter. From the class of self-appointees for overseas commissions one would think that Uncle Sam was operating a "nut-butter" in the vicinity of No Man's Land.
With the war going on in full blast we still have a full share of crime. Bandits, burglars and safe-blowers continue to ply their trade. Close-up images of the people that pool room managers or low-room room hangouts are mainly responsible for the deprections of boy bandits, automobile thieves, holdups and other acts of criminal lawlessness. Now that the police are working to prevent room business in most states many of the managers of such pest-infected places are now trying to camouflage the public under cover of patriotism by announcing themselves to oversee the business. Y. M. C. A. have been sending men over—that is, those who know baseball and other specific lines of sport. As to what particular help the pool room specialist can render unto Uncle Sam, the police are trying to American bandit methods against that employed by the Hun bandits. Of course, there's something in that.
rights to do business from a license granted by the mayor of Chicago, and that the police were out of their jurisdiction when they assumed to set themself-serving apartments, the police override a privilege granted by the legally constituted authorities. Decision A Victory The decision was a victory for the people who were constantly being outraged by the ignorant, prejudiced, flanned-out police who seemed to think that they make the laws instead of executing them. The service rendered the people of Chicago and Cook County by States At-terrorism, including a part of the band of police that would not be forgotten, and it is hoped that he will finally complete the job. In the making of this raid, it was an attack upon the character of Daniel Kahan, whose integrity and honor will continue, and anybody in the police department, that of Chief Alcock not: excepted.

WOMEN'S SUFFRAGE
CUTTING OFF YOUR NOSE to spite your face is rather a drastic measure practiced only by people who are partially bereft of their reason. The South, the same as other sections of the country, believes women should have a voice in making the laws of the country, or in selecting those who do make the laws. But they have been most aggressive in opposing the amendments of bills before congress that had for their object the giving to women the right of ballot, for the reason that black as well as white would have the same privilege, and rather than have this state of affairs it is decreed no woman shall have this boon.
Just like the South, certainly. Any other expression from that section would be against their principles and old traditions. The old fossil ideas still remain to poison the blood of the new generation. This is why the rest of the country has advanced and left the South one hundred years behind the times. Just so long as they waste their time in an effort to keep under cover a certain supposedly inferior portion of their body politic, just so long will they themselves remain a negligible quantity in the seething mass of resting Americans who have made this the greatest country on the face of the globe.
Instead of accepting what they really want and taking what they don't want—much as one would take a dose of bitter medicine, believing it will be for the best in the long run—they plan all day and lie awake nights sheming how to carry out their point. This from an editor of one of the largest Texas dailies is representative: "There is nothing in the past political history of the South to justify the fear that Negro women would prove a political menace were the federal amendment adopted." We agree with this learned scribe; the fears of the rabble are unfounded. The southern states have found a way to retain the supremacy of the white man at the polls and it is safe to believe they will do likewise where our women are concerned.
The "grandfather clause," the "white man's primary," the "educational qualification," all are measures that have proved effective in keeping southern liberal supremacy in the hands of the white men, and that despite the amendment ratified as the southern confederacy collapsed. It is make the women of the country suffer the loss of their rights just certain class are opposed to anything helpful to our people. We in the for their blind creatures, throwing sand in their own
and we play only an insignificant part—owing to our limited—in sections other than the South. It is the white man's burden put in this, our country, everything that concerns an American citizen concerns us. What a wonderful place this will be when I know you you know me, for after all only harm is prevalent where there is afect understanding. When women are given an opportunity to help ake and enforce our laws, when politicians come with clean hands, and me to serve and not be served, we will enjoy true democracy, but not till ten.
BLAZING THE WAY
FORWA RHAN OF PROGRESS has been and p. s paper since s inception to repair the broken ever found, advise and counsel our readers to live within the land and to prove themselves at all times true American citizens, the first hostile gun was fired the paramount thing the Chicago rod for was to win the war, to mobilize the man power and the
To allay foreign criticism, to increase the moral leadership and to unintingly support from the highest to the lowest official directing our desnies, has been our constant aim.
We believe that our people have fully demonstrated that they can and will render to their country their highest services to win the war.
We advocate migration because it will relieve those abnormal and congested conditions existing between the races in certain sections as the best means of securing concord and co-operation.
The South has always held that wherever the Negro has appeared in large numbers he has been a burden and a drawback to the progress of the white race. From this standpoint we urged migration as the only relief from this condition.
On account of the war demands the abnormal and economic conditions in our industrial life are such that they afford an opportunity for us to better our condition by leaving the South. Foreign emigration having ceased, other sections were compelled to turn to the South as the only available source of labor supply. Here was found a most efficient and effective
We advocate such economic and industrial policies for our people as I relieve inter-racial friction and antagonism where it is most acute and we it has disturbed the peace and good order of the country. The Defender advocates, as a measure of social uplift and highest immunity service, that our people in the South strive by every honorable lawful means to win the confidence and good will of their white neighbors. Over and above all these considerations, the Defender believes that the great destiny of both races in the South must be built upon the solid foundation of mutual industry and good understanding and neither race can prosper or advance without the other.
Supporting the President
IN TIMES LIKE THESE every loyal American citizen should have but not in mind, and that purpose should be to lend every possible aid to solident. Wilson and his staff of co-workers who at the head of the government are directing our destinies. To them has been assigned the stupendous of assisting our allies in the fight to make the whole world safe for us. The sheer state so far they have steered in a manner that has thwarted the imitation in a manner that has brought fear and bling to our foe, hope, encouragement and succor to our allies. Around numbers we constitute an elite.
just what per cent American the other of the population of this country
say, we can say and we do know that every black face is 100 per cent American.
We are proud of the fact that our loyalty has never been questioned;
we have our own troubles and join our brothers in a common fight against discrimination;
when the seed of discontent was being sowed by German propaganda even the most ignorant amongst us gave it consideration.
Confidence in the integrity of our government, in the astuteness of the leaders of it, and in the wisdom of Woodrow Wilson—first figure in the statesmanship of the world—all feel the hope and the expectation that the kaiser in suing for peace in words alone has asked for war by the sword of war till real peace can come. The resourceful shrewdness of the Hapsburgs is matched against the honor and arms of the grandest nation the world ever saw, and against the sorrow of France and the sad plight of the British empire. And yet the extremity of war is not without virtue. The kaiser will receive the reply of right to the infamy of wrong.
Upon the face of it the offer of Max, who speaks for the kaiser, is sweet to the ear, but heavy to the heart. An armistice is what he begs, but it is exactly an armistice that we cannot grant. Peace is his word, but confusion is his aim. The arms of the United States and the determination of Woodrow Wilson—speaker and spokesman for the side Liberty fights on—to stand the world of men on its feet and the world of thrones on its head, gives reason a hearing in the German empire. But it is more than a hearing for which we ask. We ask for justice the four seasons and a favoring sun in the land of the Hohenzollerns and the Hapsburgs. Less than that will not satisfy the leaders of our cause or the soldiers behind our cause. Time has wrought its wondrous work, and farther on he will work more wondrous still.
The victory expected by the American people—their sons given cheerfully to the slaughter that Progress exacts of all who cherish liberty—is a victory not of the pen and the parchment, but of the sword and the saber. Ours was the mistake deadening in refusing the challenge of the German empire in the shame of the Lusitania. The sun was well up when our hands took the plow. The day's work is freedom's task, and we are not through until the harvest shall know the reaper's touch. The grand boast is that ours is the flag that never touched the ground. Let us add this: That history is agreed not only upon the pride of our flag, but also upon the wisdom of our leaders when face to face with thrones and kings and sons of vanity the world over!
Behind Woodrow Wilson is an undivided and indivisible nation, all races one, all colors blended, all hopes beating in one time, all faiths gathered in the single expectation that we can have peace in the world when the kaiser, rising from the mourner's bench, is loud in the words that he has been redeemed and washed in the blood of the Lamb and the lambs!
No peace now—nor ever until the humblest Negro in Alabama knows that democracy has got a foothold, not only in Germany and through Europe, but in Alabama. The kaiser has not gone down, nor will go down, until the heaviest heart among the darker millions here shall feel "the spirit movin'."
I speak for one-ninth of the entire population of the United States. It was Booker T. Washington who said that no enterprise could disregard that population and reach the highest success. They urge the President to possess his soul in patience, hold the plow as if he knew his furrow and give the kaiser the hell he has been giving the civilization of the world. And if he would know upon what terms we would accept peace, we refer him to Grant's polite note to Lee:
"IMMEDIATE AND UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!"
believe that every mother's son of us stands ready and willing to not only give of our means, but stand ready to give our lives, that Old Glory may forever wave over this, our home.
DON'T BE A SLACKER. No matter if you did subscribe liberally to the other three Liberty loans get in on the Fourth. It is the one big way we who stay at home can do our part toward crushing the Hume. We have them on the run and our dollars will keep our boys close on their heels. Buy more bonds.

STATEMENT OF THE OW CIRCULATION, ETC., RE CONGRESS OF A
PEACE TALK is pouring in from all directions, but the kind of talk that has brought it about came from the mouths of our cannon and other innocent persuaders. We have heard from Germany before along the same line: we are too old at the game to be caught napping, and besides our boys went over the sole purpose of giving the kaiser a sound thrashing, and this seemingly they intended to do. We would be willing for Germany to talk peace after the allies have laid their country as bare as they laid Belgium.
ALL RAIL ROADS under federal control henceforth will serve breakfast a la carte and luncheon and dinner table d'hote. The price of the dinner will be $1; on the "crack" trains a quarter more will be added. From now on when we ask a friend on the train to dine with us we at least have an approximate idea of whether our purse will hold out or not.
WHETHER the Spanish influenza was "made in Germany" or not, our medics are giving it knockout drops, so that it will tarry with us but a short time. In the meantime be careful not to oxpose yourself, an ounce of prevention being in this case worth a pound of cure.
COMING EVENTS cast their shadows before. Hoke Smith of Georgia is not up for re-election this year, which saves him from the fate that befall his colleagues, Blease, Vardaman and Hardwick.
"SOME PARADE," was the way old-timers described the demonstration our boys made—ably assisted by the fair sex—for the Liberty Loan drive.
ONE WAY of helping the government is, after you have bought a block of bonds buy a few more; every little bit helps.
WITH A LIBERTY BOND somewhere in your possession there is no chance of ever feeling dead broke.

Why Tarry Ye Here and Die?
Why Tarry Ye Here and Die?
FALSE Leadership Blamed
Ouroup has been and is continually humiliated by the full manhood rights by the blind exercise of political conduct of their leaders. For fifty years the hand of our leadership has pointed backward. As a result who sought to lead have been freed from a logical process of orderly thought. "Unknown good often lies at the gate Of what to us seems an unhappy fate." Our political leadership in the past has failed in that they have directed no stimulating inquiry looking forward to the cause of the social and economic disease we are affected. They seemed to have thought that the remedy for our ills could be found in our unfaltering loyalty to the Republican party. On this rock their leadership has wrecked. And over years of their advice and direction of ourselves still far from a perfect realization of our manhood rights.
A careful study of the world's civilization vividly portrays the fact that in order for any people to gain and maintain power, the social, economic and political activities of their day they must possess a group consciousness which of itself awakens in their soul a force sufficient to guide their own deity and determine that which societies are found in following the hand which they wield instead of that of the antiquated leadership which points backward. A logical process of reasoning invites one's attention to the proposition that this time will be a step in the right adjustment and would place us in a position of occupying a unique place in the adjustment of the great questions which will claim the attention in the future of our national government. Such a division of vote will also give us a seat at the council table in the internal affairs of our government, bringing to us a wholesome scope of influence in working out our own destiny.
Senator Foraker's Advice Lincoln is dead. To him the backward hand is a hand of dent. On him the world stands with fixed eyes. Senator Benjamin A. Foraker, probably one of the best friends we have had in the past quarter of a century, is one of the prominent several years before he had this to say: "Your people have made an unfortunate mistake in their political conduct, in that they have robbed themselves out of profit, thereby robbing themselves out of protection which would have come to them as a Race by a division of their Foraker was a Republican, and with his hand to one deceive you. Your future depends on a division of your political suffrage.
BE "WHITE" TO THEM
Some of the first Americans to go on the firing line in France were men with black skins. They and their brothers who have come after them have proven their courage and their degree as fighting men in no lesser degree than white men in yellow Americans. They have the same ideals, the same passionate love of country as their white comrades. Shall they deserve less of their country than as if their skins were white?
In a reprehensible sense, we have insisted on preserving a color line in this modern sense, there is a color line in France and something up to the best American traditions. When Moses and Rustus and Sambo come marching home, will the plaudits of their countrymen be less unreserved for them than for their white comrades? Or will they again be compelled to color line, drawn against them, which would be to them for half a century humiliation, discrimination and rank injustice?
We are planning a campaign of Americanization for our foreign population. But the Colored man needs no Americanization. He is already manic to the core, and he is proving it. We will be justice, respect, opportunity—justice, will not brook discrimination against him, respect for his devoted patriotism, opportunity for education and growth, opportunity to serve his country and his generation even as his white brother, opportunity to democracy will be but a sham unless we recognize these things and act upon them.

OUR MEN TO AID WAR WORK
St. Louis, Mo. Oct. 11. - Stops were taken last Thursday night at the Lincoln High School, Broadway and 10th streets, East St. Louis, to bring to the Colored people of the east side the absolute necessity of assisting in speeding up the work of Willie the great industrial district. Pellet, the executive secretary and director of the community organization branch of the War Department, and Dr. J. F. Relf, both white men, chairman of the War Civics Committee, outlined what the organization plans are. A fund of money subscribed to aid in this work which in lieu of organizing the putrid atmosphere of the east side, and making the hole a better place in which to live. It is understood there will be much improving done to better the housing conditions for the Race, which have always been lamented in the face of fate that this meeting was held without the throw of the scene of the burned district, the product of the riots a year ago.

EDITOR'S MAIL
New York City, Oct. 1st, 1918.
Mr. Robert S. Abbott, Editor Chicago Defender—My dear Mr. Abbott!
I have been especially interested in the splendid response which we have gotten all over the country from the "ads" which your paper has carried for us, in connection with our summer work for students in the southwestern schools, as well as various industrial schools in the east. Numerous letters coming from us are excellent evidence of the way in which the defender reaches the people. I wish also to express the appreciation of our organization for the splendid co-operation received from you. The Defender should congratulate itself in having such efficient and wide-awake representatives in New York as Messrs. White and McGill. Not only have they done much to increase its circulation in our community, but as representatives of the organ, are playing an important part in our midst. Again感谢 you, I am very truly yours, James H. Hubert, executive secretary.

Complications
Some of the common complications of Spanish influenza or the mild form of Spanish influenza known as catarrhal or gripe are about a great loss of energy. Perhaps the things that will impress you most will be a great weakness, bordering on nervous prostration, on the immune system, and on complication, also biorhapic pneumonia, which is quite frequent, but not so common a complication as bronchial pneumonia, meningitis, insanity and death. These complications are followed in the wake of influenza.
Tuberculosis-La gripe or influenza is often mistaken for pulmonary tuberculosis. Influenza very often simulates a tuberculosis condition that has been lying dormant perhaps for years and is now attacking. Attempts to skillful he may manifest as la gripe when the real underlying cause is tuberculosis. Tuberculosis is to be thought of in any form of grip or influenza that lasts over a week and that show frequent chills, fever, sweet, persistent cough, tired, languid feeling, and/or a fever that is often observed to frequently, carefully examine your chest and also your heart.
