Major Lynch in his few remarks showed that he had lost more of his impressiveness by holding the audience spellbound. W. H. Stewart, Kentucky, and J. C. Napier, Tennessee, were equally as eloquent in their remarks, Mr. Napior impressively declaring the Race would never be satisfied until they had what had fought for in all the wars, what every other American citizen had."

Attacks Girls: Seeks To Shift His Crime Jackson, Miss., Feb. 13.—Fear that the defendant might meet with mob violence prevented the trial of H. W. Fay (white), charged with criminally attacking four little white girls. It is reported that Fay endeavored to shift his crime, declaring "it was wrong to attack the our rages. The evidence against him was no conclusive that his attempt proved a failure. He is thought to have been implicated in other misdeeds for which he was never arrested. PRINCIPAL EXONERATED Ada, Okla., Feb. 13.—I. V. McCrutcheon, whose home was shot up a few nights ago as a protest against his alleged reflection upon the morals of his pupils, has been exonerated of all blame by the Ada school board.

CHURCH, CHICAGO, FEB. 11 The Lincoln League of America assembled Wednesday morning, Feb. 11, at South Park M. E. church, was called to order by Perry W. Howard of Mississippi, who introduced Alderman Louis D. Anderson of Chicago, as temporary chairman. The key-note address was delivered by Col. Roscoe Simmons. This meeting was in celebration of the first anniversary; the call was read by Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia; invocation by Dr. J. W. Reynolds of Memphis, Tennessee. At the first session of the convention over 400 delegates answered the roll call, representing every state in the Union. The gathering was conspicuous by the absence of former Governor Pinchback of Louisiana. A number of brief addresses were made by notable characters representing the various states. Among them were Editor W. H. Stewart, Hon. W. C. Napler, former registrar of the treasury; ex-Congressman John R. Lynch, Ralph W. Tyler of Ohio, former auditor of the navy. The trend of each speaker led to the conclusion that the fight was on to make America safe for Americans—safety against disfranchisement, against prejudicial labor organizations, against Jim-Crow cars, against mob violence and lynching. Resolutions were presented by Hon. Edward H. Wright, delegate from Illinois, calling attention to Section 2 of the 14th Amendment of the Constitution, that representatives shall be apportioned among the several states according to their respective number, counting the whole number of persons in each state, excluding Indians. MARTHA WILLIAMS IS FOUND NOT GUILTY By Nettie George Spedley A man and woman, children of sisters, and a teacher, are included by Deputy Sheriff Lester Ness and Charles Koepe, in the criminal court of Chief Justice Robert L. Crowe. The woman was nervously picking her handkerchief to pieces, for had not Assistant State's Attorney James C. Cameron let her slip, she deprived of her liberty for the rest of her natural life. Her attorney, Cameron Latter, was equally as eloquent in asking the jury to "give her what we all want, what will make America safe, a square deal." Verdict in Fifteen Minutes The jury was out only fifteen minutes. In that short space of time they found that Martha Johnson, 33 years old, and her cousin, Alex Morton, 50 years old, both of 6132 LaSalle street, were not guilty of the murder of Ulysses Williams, 25 years old, 5846 Decarbors street, formerly of Troy, Ala., from Martha Johnson shoal, to death on the front porch of her home June 30 last. Woman Tells Story Martha testified that she came here ten years ago from Nashville, Tennessee. She kept rooms in her home. Ulysses was one of them. When he became negligent about pa ing his rent, she made him move. She was later informed by a neighbor residing in the rear of her home that Williams had been missing her absence. Her revolver, which she kept for house protection, had disappeared. Asks Police for Protection She went to the 48th street police station and complained of Williams' conduct. Upon her arrival home, Williams came to her in a drunken condition. He demanded to know why she was driving a knife and calling her vile names, he tried to attack her. She scrigued for her cousin, Alex. to get the police. Williams, seeing through the window the man who had informed her of his breaking in her home, ran out on the front porch. She succeeded in locking the door. Fires Fatal Shots Williams then tried to break the door and declaring that he would kill her. Arming herself with her son's gun, she fired three times through the window. Williams fell dead. She hid until the next day, then consulted her.

Mr. Pickens entered Yale University in 1902 and here, in a class of 300 men, he captured one of that institution's most coveted honors—the Henry James Ten Eyck Oration prize. In 1904, he was elected to America's foremost honorary society among college men, Phi Beta Kappa, and delivered the Philosophical Oration. Since that time the Dean has devoted himself to teaching and lecturing, and no oner of the Race is so well known. With the race in 1818, Mr. Pickens established a record as the first of his Race to hold that office and the office of dean also. During the war Mr. Pickens was instrumental, together with Major Springarm, in originating the movement for an officers' training camp and the deserts of such camps Des Moines. The first of such camps service to the Race is a long and varied one, and his contribution to Morgan College is indeed creditable. When he became dean of this institution the plant consisted of one building on a fraction of an acre; he leaves it, after 20 years, with the Pickens $44,000. Mr. Pickens' official title with the N. A. A. C. P. will be Associate Field Secretary. "Mule-Kicker" Loses Pep When U. S. Agents Raid Macon, Ga., Feb. 13. U. S. Commissioner W. E.

JACK JOHNSON TO SAIL FOR AMERICA Pugilist Secures Passage and Expects to Land at New York in March (By Continental Press) Mexico City, Feb. 12.—According to information current here it is claimed that Jack Johnson, heavyweight pugilist who fed the United States a few pounds of meat, has engaged passage on the steamship Monterey and will sail for New York, arriving there about March. I. Indications are that he has been accused of assault with United States District Attorney Charles F. Clyne at Chicago, where he was tried and convicted, and a compromise has been entered into, whereby Johnson will be given ample time in his pursuit to secure bonds upon his arrival. Johnson's Letter The letter received by District Attorney Clyne is as follows: "I am returning to Chicago in March, if I can get your approval. I wish to come via Cuba and New York, if you will arrange matters I may come to Chicago without being forced to ask you to give me 36 hours to arrange security and other things which will be necessary to arrange before a warrant or subpoena is served by the department of justice after I reach Chicago. "If you will do this, notify the attorney here and telegraph me. I hope you take care of this at once, so I can leave the early part of February." Clyne Favors Plan Mr. Clyne, it is said, has given his approval of the steps taken by Johnson and the steps he would do to him difficult times and many challenges, son told press reporters that it was his desire to return to the United States, serve out his one year in the Army, and to engage Jack Dempsey in an effort to regain the world's heavyweight crown. FIFTEEN KILLED IN WRECK Clayton, La., Feb. 13.—From 15 to 25 people are believed to have been killed in the wreck on the St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern passenger train, which plunged through an open drawbridge over the Tensas river.

MEMBERS OF WHITE CHURCH ATTEMPT TO LYNCH CITIZEN Plans of Self-Constituted Law Body Miscarry—Prisoner Jailed Paltimore, Md., Foo, 12.—Not until George Terry, alleged to have assaulted Mrs. Sadie Sibley (white) was safely lodged in the county jail was it known that plans had been laid by friends and neighbors of Mrs. Sibley in Mount Winans to lynch Terry as soon as caught. All of citizens met several weeks ago, and agreed to take the law into their own hands. It was decided that as soon as Terry was captured, the bell of the Mount Winans Methodist Church would be tolled. At this signal the committee, whose identity is not known, were to gather at the church which adjoins the home of the Sibley family and execute. The prisoner was then to be taken charge of and brought before Mrs. Sibley for identification, and hanged immediately afterward. However, somebody failed to get the information so enought, and the plans of this self-constituted law body miscarried a course, now that the prisoner is in jail, and that such a gesture has been made by citizens of Mount Winans that, "the people of Mount Winans are satisfied to let the law take its course." From persons who are in a position to know, this attitude, it has since been learned, was taken because these people believe that Terry would be convicted of Terry, whom Mrs. Sibley identifies as her assailant, was taken to police headquarters and recorded under the Bertillon system. After being measured, photographed and having had his fingerprints taken, he was sent to jail. Sues Express Company Macon, Ga., Feb. 13.—Suit for $500 damages has been filed in the municipal court by the man Pollock against the American Railway Express and A. F. Copeland (white). The petitioner stated that he was beaten by Copeland, an employee of the company, and accused of stealing a fish from a barrel which Pollock was engaged in unloading on Jan. 3. Copeland does not deny the charges, but is said to have boasted that he "would do it again." Bishop Cleavas Dolivers Address Sapulpa, Okla., Feb. 13.—Bishop C. N. Cleaves of the C. M.

READ BY MORE THAN A MILLION PEOPLE EACH WEEK Gov. Morrow Blocks Plot o to Disgra COWARDS FLEE A MOB arrow of Kentucky Plot of Lynchers Disgrace State FLEE AS MILITIA SHOOTS Gov. Morrow of Kentucky Blocks Plot of Lynchers to Disgrace State COWARDS FLEE AS MILITIA SHOOTS Lexington, Ky., Feb. 13—Notwithstanding the fact that William Lockett, the alleged confessed slayer of little Geneva Hardman (white), had been accused of murder and torture, a mob composed of hundred of men, bent upon lynching him, formed near the court house with rope in hand, and with avowed purpose of taking the law in their own hands. Fortunately for the honor of Kentucky, the state capitol at Frankfort, a man stern of purpose and solid as to his convictions of right and wrong, who just a few months previous had declared in his inaugural address that during his term of office the state health of Kentucky would not despair in its effort in the righteous attempt to give each and every man, regardless of his racial identity, a fair and impartial trial before the law. Governor Acts In pursuance of that spirit, when the information was brought to the attention of Gov. Edward Mornell, the state attorney general, sbyte to be linked, through violence and disorder, with some of the other states Gov. Morrow of Kentucky whose executives had failed in their mission to uphold the spirit of the constitution, he immediately instructed every agency of the law that the defendant must have a fair and impartial Universal Military Training Washington, D. C., Feb. 13—The citizen army measure will never go through, if it is left to the southern Democrats in the house of representatives. They have already been in caucus regarding it, and such men as Rep. Olivia Colina, Dent of Alabama and others of that type are the loudest shouters against it, the first mentioned expressing the belief that at least three-fourths of the Democrats are of his mind. Representative Dent was formerly chairman of the committee on military affairs. One of the principal reasons for the opposition to universal training is that the "lawmakers" have found it impossible to arrange matters so that members of the Race will not be included in the proposition. The fact that hundreds of thousands of our boys in the late summer would have to be organized along with the boys of the "opposite" race is the cause of the stand against the measure. Never, if these southerners can avoid it, will the men of our "group" be trained again in the use of firearms, unless, of course, they are needed to die for democracy, or to try to win the late summer battle in which denies them the rights of citizenship from the machinations of foreign war lords. The ordinary southern white man is too lazy to carry a gun and knapsack unless it is for. Upon him and the avoiding of it through the efforts of their representatives, it is sure to meet with their approbation, so that thequences to the country might be is a matter of small consideration. especially if it involves the training of the darker Americans who fought so well as members of the late A. S. F. Hot Springs, Ark. Feb. 13.—Owing to the much appreciated work of the Knights of Pythias, and the steady and progressive growth of their institution, the Knights had to add a frontage of approximately 53 feet to this property. Negotiations for the purchase of this addition were made by the supreme temple and sanitarium commission of the State Department of the chancellor, who has been very active in the undertaking, presided. Plans have also been closed for the erection of buildings on the new property, the value of which are estimated at $155,000. The begin immediately and will include a large sanitarium and bathhouse. SATURDAY Governor Acts PYTHIAN BATH HOUSE PRICE FIVE CENTS trial, and if convicted, must be executed according to law. His conduct in this respect, however, did not meet the approbation of some of the citizens of Kentucky, who took it upon themselves to administer the law according to their ideas. And as a result, they marched upon the court house to secure the prisoner. Upon their approach they were warned, by Capt. I. V. Crockett, a command of the state troops, to halt the attack, never advance, and as a result five of the would-be lynchers were killed and fourteen wounded. Five Biotars Killed The words followed up by action on the part of the commander of the troops had the desired effect, and the mob dispersed. The governor took no action, and the increase thirst for vengeance and an additional 400 troops to see that the defendant was given a fair trial. Lockett was tried at the court house and convicted of the murder and sentenced to death. The death warrant was duly signed by the governor the date for the electrocution was set for March 11. The known rioters who were killed instantly in front of Payette county court house are: Ben F. Ferguson, Bexington; L. M. King, Lexington; Thomas, Versailles; William Ethington, Versailles. Several pawn shops and hardware stores, were looted and considerable arms and ammunition stolen by the mobs, but the stern accuser, Morrow, took the heart out of the morrow, and their stolen property was not used. Morrow True Minion of Law The action, in this instance, of the Kentucky executive gives him special claims upon all law abiding citizens, and as one who imbibed the true sense of Americanism, his determination to uphold the constitution of his state and country was clearly exemplified in his instructions to the law officers of the state to protect the life of the prisoner at all hazards, thereby preserving the liberty of the state and the century will have no lynchings as long Edwin P. Morrow is governor. His conduct in this procedure is well worthy of emulation by some of the weak-kned executives who have failed to carry out their oath of office. Social Degenerate William Lockett—Little is known of his early life. Information was obtained, however, that he was a shifftless, irresponsible character, and had served time in an institution for mental defectives. He was what is commonly called a "medical" or "medical science" a "monor", otherwise known as a societal degenerate. Evansville, Ind., Feb. 13. The Van derburg County Bar association has about given up the fight in the attempt to force the acquittal of Ernest G. Tidrington, supreme vice chancellor of the Knights of Pythias, according to latest reports. It was cited that the bar association cannot take an appeal to the higher court after losing its battle in the lower court, or the group of certain classes contained in the petition filed by the association automatically deny it the right of appeal. The fight waged by Attorney Tidrington in contending for representation in the association was a decisive victory for our Race in this state, in that it crumpled all color barriers and restrained white lawyers to force themselves into important cases gained by lawyers of our Race. Certain white lawyers have used the association as a means to stifle the power and influence of our attorneys. The fight Tidrington was represented by some of the ablest attorneys in this state and his character and ability were testified to by white bankers and prominent business men. Thief Enters Grocery Store by Santa Route Atlanta, Ga., Febb 13—"For Gawd's sake, mister, don't start no fire. I'm in this chimblyboy, an' I smother to death." This frantish prayer greeted a grocer when he started to make a fire in his place of business here. When the base of the chimney, was cut away by brick masons, William Gaines, who had got jammed in the chimney and couldn't move, was taken out half, dead from fear and suffocation. Police believe he tried to enter the grocery to steal, by way of the: Santa Clas route, and miscalculated his size Soldier Out of Work Steals Friend's Clothing Philadelphia, Feb. 13—Ix-Sorgt. R. Kelly, age 22, of 2016 Tasker street, who had been a member of a machine gun battalion during the war, and who still wears his uniform, was arrested for stealing a suit of clothes from Walter Mattax, 1733 North Woodstock street, and held in default of a bill for court before Magistrate Tellis. When asked why he committed robbery, Kelly stated that he had been out of work and was in need of clothes and money.

M. Batchman St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 13—Activity among promoters of the Citizens' Liberty League continue, and the interest manifested in the movement to force party members to party a just share of what the Race should have continues intense. In this campaign for bettering the condition of the people has appeared to obscure the horizon, but it will probably prove short lived. There is no disposition among the masses of the people for terminating questions which have come to the front. Break Comes In giving out a declaration of principles recently the Missouri Republican Club went along very nicely until it struck the hill which demanded the elimination of Congressman Dyer and colored man for the place. Naturally, manpower line with the policy of a strict political organization which has fed at the trough to take a stand back from the "chow," but the Liberty League does not have such favors to court and for its every conviction, the district which is being covered by the light belongs to the voters; they have the votes and have never received the recognition to which they have been entitled because politicians are giving nothing more than they are forced to. Voters Mistreated That the voters of the 12th district have been mistreated in the past is stating the case mildly. Dr. Charles H. Phillips was defeated for a small office by Congressman Dyer. Franklin D. Roosevelt, the warrior, has gobbled up office after office as he has desired, and given white friends his surplus. Negroes have secured spition and other minor jobs held in line with such small recognition. Later, publicity insulted by Dyer because he went contrary to Dyer's wishes at a meeting and Dyer wanted to fight. This set-to has not lain well on old-time Republicans' stomachs and Dyer with a weight of it in the next few months. The citizens of this city want and are going to have a congressman to replace Dyer, a member of the board of aldermen, city uniformed police, former mayor, and a member of the state legislature, to which Dr. Riley was elected and did not fight for his rights, and all the countless small jobs which have been the influence which we have been unable to break down. Out After Dyer Heading the Citizens' Liberty League are such men as Auron W. Lloyd, Dr. Charles H. Phillips, Attorney George George Homer G. Phillips, Hon. Julius M. Weil, Herbert H. Meadows, Hon. J. E. Mitchell, C. K. Robinson, prominent churchmen and ladies identified with various auxiliaries. It is not saying they get exactly what they want. Dyer will try to make a trade to keep his seat in congress; others will try to manipulate wires so the maximum of defense is possible. He be some "small job holders who will fall in with such a scheme, but in the end it is expected this movement will force a breaking down of political office which will mean a great advance step in the history of Missouri. --- READY FOR FOUNDER'S DAY Wilberforce, Ohio, Feb. 12.—Preparations for the holding of Founder's day at the school on Feb. 24 are about completed.

TON CHICAGO, ILLINOIS Indianapolis, Ind., Feb. 13.—The rapid growth and use of the automobile has brought into existence a new trade—it is that of repairing and rebuilding it—worn out automobile casings; it is the result of bringing thousands of miles of travel to the automobile tires used all over the world. Ordinary tire repairing is an art that has been only partly understood. From the beginning of the automobile industry attempts to repair automobile tires for M. E. Haywood to give this part of repairing a new meaning. By improving the methods of repairing and by bringing into existence a clever device for doing the mechanical part of the tire, he has updified this repair work until it is now an established profession. Method "Tire Surgery" His new method is known generally as "tire surgery." The machine for harvesting us used in tire surgery. Mr. Haywood makes his own Haywood Tire and Equipment Company in Indianapolis, and in addition he operates a mammoth school of instruction where men gather from all industries to learn this profession of tire surgery. Mr. Haywood makes all men welcome to his school of instruction. For those who buy one of his outfits and go into the business of tire surgery, he teaches them how to perform for those who wish to become skilled in tire surgery that they may work in established Tire Surgery Stations at excellent wages; there's a very nominal charge for the instruction. Mr. Haywood states he demand for skilled tire surgeons is so great that he cannot begin to supply the demand from those who have established Tire Surgery Stations and appointed him for skilled, competent help. The course of instruction is from two to three weeks in duration, and in that period the student has opportunity to work on all types of repairs, from the smallest here to the purer—which is the simplest repair known—to the retreating and relining of the largest type of automobile casings.—Advertisement. and is stopping at 330 Clinton street.

Racial Relations Harmonious Kingston, Jamalca, Feb. 13—It is well known that in the population of Jamaica the people of our group far outnumber those of the white people. While in the majority these people have no more electors in the legislature than have the whites. However, it is pointed out that while other of the inhabitants have living internal troubles, Jamaica boasts that habitats display neither violent party spirit nor radical feeling. Racial relations are harmonious. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER By Thomas Wallace Swann When the true history of the American army to the past decade, is written John T. Gibbs will tell his own. He has made a permanent contribution to it, a contribution of a beneficial and age-telling character. For he is the first among men to demonstrate the possibilities of our Race. He has together an interesting story, which an interesting and a blessing to a race still proscribed. Although the theater gives profitable employment to its hundreds and thousands of entertainers before the advent of John T. Gibbs, the local baker, the eager and producer, the American stage was a No Man's Land to the sunkissed children of destiny. There were exceptions to this rigid exclusion act, rotable exceptions. For artists of the local Lucas baker, began, Geo. W, and Ald. W. Williams and the Byron brothers there was occasional employment. For the major portion of the sunburst army of muth-makers there were at best the hazard engagements. No first class hazard engagements were as effectually banned from our stage as the Chinese pigtail is banned from our American shores. The racial artist had no profitable market for his wonderful output of wit and humility in natural gifts of pleasing and making the world laugh and be happy. HEROIC COURAGE It required a man of grit, pluck, nerve, daring and a lion heart to change this condition, and these superb qualities John T. Gibson possesses in abundance. Trained in the hard and difficult school of trade and commerce, he quickly established his modes and studying the systems followed by other successful business directors. Mr. Gibson saw at a glance the principal barrier to be overcome before any enterprise of such vast moment to a community could be a success. This had to do with efficiency, economic opportunity, the ownership of a playhouse, properly situated to form a connecting link with the arteries of the theatrical and amusement trade. Realizing this difficulty, he purchased the Standard theater property, becoming the sole owner and directing mannequins as was his years ago. Once in control, the great theaterdom stood in amazement. For a new Richmond had come to challenge their prowess. OTHERS FAILED Situated on South street, which ranks as the third business thoroughfare in Philadelphia, located in the heart of an amusement loving population, nevertheless, prior to Mr. Gibbs' appointment, the company had drug on the financial market. Powerful and resourceful capitalists had held control of this same house at various times. Klaw & Erlanger, the Darcy & Spek syndicate and at another time Nixon & Nirdlinger were among the most powerful managers. Despite the power and witchery of those magnates, the Standard proved a failure. From the day that the Standard opened under the Gibson control to the present it has proven a financial success. Today it is con- ferent with the best paying theater in Philadelphia. BUILT WISELY Mr. Gibson planned from the start of his theatrical career to give the people what they wanted upon terms that were reasonable and fair. In fact he instituted a system of Philadelphia of treating all patrons as if they were human beings. For he saw beneath the surface, beneath the grime and sweat of the people who crowd his door, performance after performance, and for the man who correctly interprets their fondness for the simple romance, the story of love and beauty, of plot and action, of adventure and achievement, of music and its heavenly stage, there was a reward. John T. Gibson caught this vision, and today he stands at the head of the business men of his Race in America. Today Gibson's New Standard theater holds an enpleased place in the theater world, to the far-seeing enterprise of its owner and the quality of the productions which appear on its stage. COLOR LINE WAVERS Today the dusky skinned artists are in demand. For them the color line has wavered and almost disappeared. True, there are other men of both races, who are contributing to end the prescription of the racial artists, but John T. Gibson was the pioneer who blazed a trail in a seemingly hopeless wilderness. He had ideals that he accepted theories of the stage. Today he is gay for his imitators to copy his methods, for he has lived to see his dreams come true. He has done more than this. He has created a munificent fortune for himself and his family, he has distinguished the character of his calling and endured himself in the hearts of men who honor achievement in others. NEW EMANCIPATION Inquire of the secret of his success, and he will tell you in one word, "preparation." He was prepared for the job. Years of telling industry and the business of his job for his new task. He had the spirit to attempt new things. He determined to emancipate his Race from the new house of bondage—from their bondage. He emancipated the immortal Lincoln had liberated his Race from the white slave masters in Dixie. Fifty years later Gibson saw descendants of these former bonds- MOVING PICTURE OUTFIT COMPLETE FOR SALE CHEAP Just Right for Halls and Churches R. THOMAS, 6218 STATE ST., CHICAGO, IL men, absolutely owned, controlled and directed by a new slave system. Visit South Philadelphia by day or by night and see for yourselves. Gibson saw the crooked politician, backed by the mob, the dictator of the slave potential factors in the affairs of his own people. These cruty pirates sought to enlist him in their nefarious schemes to exploit the weak, but this sort of chicanery is unknown to them. He was a man of great climbing all overtures of a debauching character, his new-made enemies sought to drive him out of business. But their plan was foredoomed from the beginning. The splendid success that he achieved deavors an enduring monument to his wisdom and sense of right. Today he pays taxes on upwards of $500,000 of property, gives employment to 100 people, and buys a business that will add other hundreds to the payroll. Today he enjoys the respect of the entire community for his sanity, business integrity and his abundance of great common sense. His benefactions are numerous, as his ability is dispensed without cred or class. CHALLENGE TO AMERICA Time has dealt kindly with Mr. Gibson; not yet near the middle line of life, he has placed his country under obligations to him. For his success is more than an individual success. It is more than a success of evidence of a spirit and purpose of a people who suffer under a great handicap, who are so scoring better things. Humankind seldom does honor to its neighbors. As of old, a prophet, a sage, a wise man, a like apposition in his own community. But time strikes a just balance. At the suggestion of a host of admirers, a public testimonial was held at the Standard theater on Friday, Jan. 33, in the course of the sixth anniversary celebration. On behalf of a group of alumni, the author of over civic activity, Rev. Wm. H. Moses, editor of "The Baptist World," made the presentation of a hand made, satin lined, leather bound book, done in velum, containing a spendidly engrossed memorial, with the following names appended: John J.

Bluiett Wins Applause at Indianapolis, Wilberforce and Springfield, 0. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1920 WABASH Capt. Bluiett W Indianapolis, and Sprin Indianapolis, Ind., Feb. 13.—Last night the Wabash Ave. "T" flight from Chicago, defeated the fast Indianapolis, 14-10, to 18, for the western championship. The game was fast and exciting, keeping the six hundred fans that were present on their tuesdays throughout the game. Indianapolis boys and the Hoosiers were forced to resort to a defensive game. Cory Bluestut, assisted by his teammates, scored ten points in the first half, holding Indianapolis to two field baskets. Much credit is due Creed Hubbard and Thornton Winterts, playing on the same field, both Hap Hazzard and hi. team mates always on the run. During the second half Hazzard got a three field goal in rapid succession, three field goals in a round playing of the Wabash five measured the game. Defeat Wilberforce Feb. 7—Saturday night the Wabash avenue five defeated the Wilborforce team, 12. The University boys were bwildened by the Wabash method of attack and were carried off their feet, scoring 23 points to Wilborforce's 3. In the second half Wilborforce came back strong, holding Wabash to five points, and Wilborforce's team was weakened by the loss of the two star torwards due to sickness, Hall and Smith.

Feb. 13—A coming attraction of unusual importance, espe- cially to Brooklynites, is the com- ing basket ball game between the Dunbur- n and Orange, of Orange, and the Brooklyn C. C. basketball live, which is scheduled for Thursday evening, Feb 13, at Labor Lyceum. When those two teams met a few weeks ago the Brooklyn boys defeated the Jerseyces by one goal.

Baltimore "Y" Showed Little Baltimore "4" Showed Little Class New York, Feb. 13.—While the Baltimore "4" machine was able to display the Blue and White Christmas Monday through Jan. 28, at Manhattan Casino, they showed very little class as a basket ball machine. It looked very much at one time as if it was a basketball machine, and had the game gone five minutes longer it would have been so. Alpha has a lot of new men on their team who as yet do not know the fine points of the game next season. What the Baltimore boys tacked was team work and they missed many chances to pile up a big score on the Alpha team. What the Baltimore Casino court may have had something to do with it, but taking everything into consideration the team as a whole would stand a poor chance of defeating any of the other local big teams.

After a few minutes of hard playing the chance came for the referee to show his disfavor of the two players when the ball was dropped. He called a technical toul on Simms, which caused the team to protest, and leave the floor. The game was awarded to Odden, but Capt. Mayers (white) of Phillips' higher authorities and protested. Upon leaving the gymnasium the Phillips five found every exit jammed with the ball, and the referees were intent on giving them a beating.

A lady after consulting a physician brought her infant to me, and how to recognize eczema on infants and scalp. Answer: Eczema, as you might expect, is the most frequent disease of adults with dementia, and medical statistics nearly one-third of all and in general practice probably a very much larger proportion. Eczema is a common dermatology," and he who understands the treatment will not only relieve many distressing cases, but has also learned about therapeutic, which may be applied to other diseases. Do not put too much trust in local treatment alone. Seek medications, which predispose to, and often cause, eczema. First, some babies are washed too much. We all know the importance of water and soap on the adult skin. Hebra, the master dermatologist, toward the close of his life, asserted that skin irritation in those who bathed skin crumples in those who rather neglected it. Babies with a tendency to eczema should be especially guarded against too frequent contact. Second. Bearing in mind the delicate skin of the baby, the first application should be of the mildest charm. Third. The use of gentle remedy, which suits most skins, I use it half a drachm to the ounce of fresh cold cream, with five grains of carbamide to the ounce. A little granulated almond oil, grains to the ounce, seems to help it. PAGE TWELVE Mrs. Mary E.

Race Misled at Columbus by Parasites Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 13. - The Race people of this city are protesting against the suction of a few so-called militants in the engine house for members of our group in the fire department. The militants do not want any such discriminatory action and stand that a fireman is a fireman regardless of the color of his skin, and that a fireman is granted it will be just another demonstration of the rotten system of segregation which is being encouraged, and that we have made themselves the self-appointed representatives of the masses. Cleveland, the most progressive city in the state, has not found it necessary to the state, has not found it necessary has, however, been done in Chicago, and the house house at Taylor and State streets in the windy City was the dumping joint for all the equipment that the commissioners equipment, that the commissioners could find. Despite these facts, however, the man have maintained a woman's record, and another woman who brecken of their type should be placed indiscriminately for the welfare of the service. The people of Columbus will be making a man's music to they stand for anything of the sort.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1920 Bishop and Professors Want Prejudiced Jury to Try Alleged "Rioter" 76 Little Rock, Ark., Feb. 13.—Race people throughout the South in general, and particularly in Arkansas, are filled with just indignation at the turn affairs have taken in connection with attempts now being made to extradite Robert L. Hill, who, it is claimed, was involved in the recent trouble in Phillips county, this state. There seemed to be little chance that Gov. Allen would turn Mr. Hill over to the tender merces of the authorities of Arkansas that would allow the killers to did allow Hill to be taken back to the scene of his alleged "crime" the man would be made short shift of by the lynch-billies who have made Arkansas notorious. Gov. Allen would certainly be justified in a stand of this sort, and the governor of Arkansas probably exonerated Arkansas officials from mind, and the killers probably felt that their intended victim would be successful in his efforts to dodge "fighting." Enter Traitors The facts published broadcast in the newspapers of the South telling of the signing of the petition for Hill's extradition by Bishop J. M. Counor of the A. M. E. church, J. M. Cobb, president of Hill's church, and J. L. Joel A. Booker, president of Arkansas Baptist College, have caused bitter comment not only among our own people but among the few fairminded whites who know well what the return of Hill is about, but claim to be Race leaders, should play into the hands of their oppressors, is almost incredible. Have they forgotten the fact that twelve of their kind had been railroaded toward the gallows, such a record time as their "trial" has received the attention? That it took but eight minutes for the Race-hating jury to convict six of the men, and that the combined time taken up for the "finish" of the dozen was less than three-quarters of the time taken up for the fact that in their trials the defendants were not allowed to use any witnesses for their own defense? White Man Protests The petition in question was sent to Gov. Allen of Kansas by the executive committee of the commission on Race relations in Arkansas. It is a high-sounding title, but it doesn't mean anything. There is one very prominent white man in Little Rock who is not interested in the state. The man is U. S. Braatton, a successful lawyer—the man who at the invitation of the N. A. A. C. P. journeyed all the way to Washington, D. C., some time ago to testify before the senate committee regarding conditions in this state. He said in his talk before that body that justice for the "Negro" in Arkansas is an unknown quantity, and that the peonage system was of a type good and was responsible for not only what occurred at Elaine, but for 90% of all the racial difficulties throughout this section. In other words, he showed that the men involved in the so-called "uprising" could expect no justice in the courts of this state. These three above-mentioned "Race leaders" surely know all about these things. But so many people are involved in relation throughout the state, and it is expected that these boot-lickers are today the most unpopular "men" in this section. Shoud Be Shunned Did either of the three "leaders" named in this story make any protest against the slaughtering of the four Johnson brothers at Helena? No. But they are found alighting to bring another wife to the place. Helena—for an alleged offence, committed at Elaine, both places being far removed from Little Rock, where these worse than rats reside. The names of Conner, Cobb and Booker henceforth will be as a stench in the face of so respecting men and women, and of helping them as a pestilence and hated as traitors of a type that would have made, Benedict Arnold blush with shame. Decent people should forever avoid them; they have proved themselves worse than the villainate, which at least warns its victims, and should strike. These three animals are leaders, their own minds only, and in the future should be made to feel that fact. Their action was without justification. Find Whisky in Suitcase Valdosta, Ga., Feb. 13.—Two alleged blind tigers are supposed to have been led to see the light here when A. C.

Sangamon County Court Is Asked to Decide Important Question Sangamon County Court Is Asked to Decide Important Question SPRINGFIELD, Ill., Feb. 11.—Judge E. S. Smith of the Sangamon county circuit court today has under consideration the petition of Attorney J. W. Roush of Morris for permission to the proceedings against six members of the constitutional convention who are members of the Illinois general assembly. Attorney Roush was defeated for election by Senator Edward C. Curtis of Grant Park in the primary race for delegate to the constitutional convention. Attorney Roush asks whether member of the Illinois legislature is eligible to seats in the constitutional convention. The question will probably be ironed out at a preliminary hearing next Saturday. Wants Complete Political Freedom Delegate Henry T. Green of Urbana asked the constitutional convention to write a basic law which will guarantee "political freedom" to every one and at the same time preserve a republican form of government. The present constitution of Illinois contains no declaration of that sort. The idea is in harmony with the federal constitution and its adoption in Illinois would prevent a revolution in the republican form of government. If the state could get enough out to obtain control of the state could repeal the law of descent under the present constitution and take all property of deceased persons for the state. Bars Change of System The Green constitutional provision would prevent such confiscation. It would prevent all laws which would impede the implementation of government. The object of the government is to the source of power—the people—all fundamental political liberties. The present constitution guarantees responsible government and guarantees confer just as much political freedom as long as the system of government is not changed. His proposal gives the impression that the exercising of political beliefs is a voluntary act and the legislature should not abridge nor invalidate it, even if the legislature would attempt to provide how the bishop of a church shall be selected. Under the law at present a voter can vote at a primary for two years after the primary, if he views. The Green proposal, if placed in the new constitution, would make that law invalid.

Feb. 11.—The Newberry trial opened today with the government and defense attorneys in Chase, O. Osborn, former governor. The Osborn testimony is the sole subject of discussion in Grand Rapids today. Osborn will say when he is called to the sensational testimony. He will probably testify at the Friday or Saturday sessions. "Teeny Daniels told me in Detroit the senatorship could be bought for $150,000. I was curious to know who the man was that was selling senatorship. I didn't have $150,000 and wouldn't have paid it if I did. Shortly after the conversation with Daniels, he told the law partner of Paul H King. I told him I understood the office could be delivered for $150,000. "It's too late now," he told me. Alain Maitre, the headquarters was opened in Detroit."

CLAIMS MAIL RATE CAUSED SUSPENSION OF 2,500 PAPERS WASHINGTON, Feb. 11.—Present "excessive and onerous" second class mail rates were blamed as the major cause for suspension of 2,500 news- papers since July 1, 1918, by Victor Rosewater of Omaha, Neb., appearing before the house postoffice committee as spokesman for the American New- spaper Publishers' association. He urged reduction of charges and a congressional inquiry into the cost of the mail service for publications. Representatives of the Southern Pub- lic Association and the Periodical Publication Estimates that the government lost $70,000,000 a year on the old rate were challenged by Mr. Rosewater, who said the loss was "purely a bookkeeping figure that includes $58,000,000 lost on public funds." "Some papers that pay practically no postage are in favor of letting the law stand." Mr. Rosewater said, George E. Hosmer told the committee the National Editorial association, which has 4,400 country weeklies and small city offices, favored "letting the present law take its course."

Doctors predict that this is the beginning of an Influenza Epidemic such as we had last year when hundreds of thousands died as a result. Influenza can be prevented; last year's results prove that. Doctors recommend that a good germicide should be used frequently. Probably one of the most successful germicides used during the epidemic last year was Turpio, which is a combination of the flu and the influenza treatment (which for years has been the best home germicides), camphor and menthol in a pure mineral base. Many physicians and hospitals use and recommend Turpio. Turpio up the nostrils several times a day, and the flu germs will have little chance of getting a lodging and breeding place. In a great majority of cases, develops into pneumonia, so prepare now. Buy a jar of Turpo of your drug-gist while he has a supply on hand, and use as directed. If in spite of all precautions, influenza develops, go to bed and call a physician. 1000 AGENTS WANTED: TO LEARN MME.

Mosely, and the committee under whose call and at whose meeting the committee was held, Mulverhill, claims to have been selected, there being no other committee in Hen, Perry W. Howard existence at the time of his selection, and Mulverhall himself was serving as a member of the committee and recognizing Ligon as chairman. The meeting held in Jackson on the 6th was harmonious throughout. Percy Howard, the choice of 99 per cent of the national committee, for national committee, introduced a resolution indorsing Gen. Leonard Wood for the Republican presidential nomination, which was unanimously approved. George R. Shielden, late of Nebraska but now of Mississippi, and the only Republican member of the present Mississippi legislature, representing the state, urged Leroy Percy and Hon. Alfred H. Stone, delivered addresses. Gov. Sheldon, who, with Howard, Banks and Ligon, will quite likely lead the delivery of the vote, strongly urge the polling of a strong vote for the party ticket this fall, which was well received, and the country may expect the largest Republican in Mississippi this year for the past decade. In fact, the real party will make a showing in lieu of the less than nothing shown at the polls in the past when the party lost a hunting trust, whose only offers were to control the conventions for trading purposes and then adjourn politics for the next four years. This time they will have to deal with the party's hardly enough of them left to hold a convention, so we may look for John Doe and other unknowns, with a few purchasable Negroes, to work up some of the votes themselves, itself at Chicago for recognition or half votes. If they should the people, by their representatives of the state, will be blinded with the facts and then again show 'who's who' at the polls in November. Black Quits Postoffice Ford S. Black, 50 East 33d street, for fourteen years clerk in the Chicago postoffice, having worked from $800 up to a salary of $1,650 a year, has relied on his time to the development and improvement of Black's Blue Book, the Colored people's business and professional directory of Chicago and vicinity. This augurs well for the Blue Book. Judgment of the book in the four years has made of it the single handed and only giving part of his time to the work, we may expect a marked improvement and extension of the enterprise headed by him, giving all of his time to the understaff with a corps of workers assisting him.

Make all money orders payable to "WE COVER CHICAGO LIKE THE MORNING DEW" THE CHICAGO DEFENDER THE POLITICAL POT By A. N. Fields The assembling of the Lincoln League in solemn political conclave will either make for a healthy impetus for our group along political, civic and cultural lines, or retain our success. This will all depend upon the conduct of those who will have to do with shaping its future. We, as citizens, occupy a peculiar place in the American body politic. Although in a free country we are not yet free as other citizens, yet we are forced by circumstances to work out our future and our destiny at the dismay of our enemies in competition with free men. We will work to preserve the natural and civil rights long ago won and secured by other men; and because of this peculiar struggle for fundamental rights denied to us, we will work to improve American politics entirely different from that of any other citizen. False Loadora While we are interested in common with other citizens, in the ordination of our growing out of the dissipation of our political power, we are interested in the problems clustering about the tariff, the high cost of living, the great urban centers, labor and finance, we are interested in how we can be, in opportunities to obtain more and more of those natural and common rights of life and property which are now needed to us alone. Because of the high cost of living, we are forced, party labels, party platforms and party traditions have ceased to be of much service to us. Out of these interests, the political have grown up two classes of leaders among us. one influenced by money and the other by politically important parties, and forced upon us in order that the interests which support their leadership may continue to enjoy the political benefits of our misplaced control, foregoing considerations we are naturally interested in the present pre-convention campaign and hope to elicit an identical honor as to what their attitude may be on the question of human rights. It is also essential to know the nature of larger liberalism and greater social justice for our people. The Taft Policies Under the last republican president we stood with bated breath and saw ourselves stripped of every political privilege and appointment which we were given for the sake of reconstruction. Under Mr. Taft's administration we lost one hundred and twenty-eight fourth class postmasters. The discharge of Henry A. McCormick from Georgia, to hold an official position, the dismissal of Joshua Wilson, postmaster at Florence, S. C., one hundred and eight federal appointees from Georgia, to hold an official position, postmaster for twenty-five years at Yorktown, Va., the reduction of Dr. John M. Prather and Jerry Brown in the Immigration service, the retusal of Minnie Bunny to a counselor position on account of his racial identity, coupled with this the distinguished then president in a letter to Fisk University declared that our group should be treated with kindness and distinct from the white race. Will Character Count League Interrogated The thing we want to know now is if these gentlemen who are aspiring to the presidency are bringing with them an aroused wife and a mortal enemy of the needs and requirements of the time, and if the Lincoln League is to serve its Race and its country; these are some of the questions to which they might well seek an answer.

RAISING RENTS At the present time much is being said and written about the subject, of raising rents. Rents are being raised on the north side but all over the city. More on the north side rents is so high in many instances that numerous complaints have been made to public officials about the exorbitant rents. We are demanding. I have no desire nor intention to bend the position which landlords are taking about increasing rents, but, nevertheless we must admit that there are mutual reasons for some of the increases. We all know that the prices for labor and materials have increased, that the population of the city has increased, that buildings or houses have been constructed during the last three or four years. Because of these facts rents are bound to increase. And inasmuch there is no doubt in the near future nor any decrease in the cost of labor and materials there does not seem to be any prospect of immediate relief. In view of the fact that we cannot take up the question of the increase in rents and see if we cannot find out under what circumstances the landlord may increase the rents, how much relief the tenant has in case he cannot find another apartment. The great majority of leases will expire the first month and the question of raising rents and apartments is bound to be a serious one. MRS STRANGÊ DIES Mrs. Lula E. B.

Whenever and wherever the appearance of truth it grows out of the law, whether it is little protection in law, whether it is never again find itself uneducation, for the cause that is our liberty. Let us prepare today, will bring? Universal Military Training WHILE IT MAY BE some moons before we are confronted with another war the magnitude of the one we have just passed through, preparedness should be our watchword. If there was one thing above another that forced itself upon our consciousness it was the deplorable condition—from a military standpoint—we found ourselves in when it became our duty to take up arms. It is true we are a peace loving people and our position on the map warrants less precaution than that observed by the older countries, but with the coming of submarines, aircraft and swift moving ships our ideas of being in a safety zone have been materially changed. GERMANY DEMONSTRATED the advisability of putting in practice the adage, "In time of peace, prepare for war." For more than forty years, it is said, she built up her war machine before striking a blow. The combined strength of the big powers was needed to crush them. The peace covenant, the league of nations and every joint pact that may be made, after all, is much on the order of "a gentleman's agreement." We are all human, all more or less grasping. Some nation some time may give us a jolt and in retaliating the international agreements may be violated as they were in the past struggle. UNIVERSAL MILITARY TRAINING offers a happy solution in that we can throw into the field on short notice thousands of well trained men in every branch of the service, able and willing to defend our country. Compulsory training will mean that our young men will emerge from this rigid disciplining better fitted in every way to carry on their life's work and to fill the places now held by their sires with the government. The expenditure of $130,000,000 annually on universal military training will prove the best investment ever made by the American people. FROM THE SOUTH comes a loud cry of "we object" and Democrats from this section have launched a movement in the House against the proposition. As a general thing, it is difficult to find a logical reason why Southernners oppose movements that have the support of the North and designed for the betterment of all people, but in this instance the cat—at least one of the cats—has been let out of the bag, and, lo and behold, the black man appears, from their viewpoint, the stumbling block. Why do some of the "Colonels" have conspiction fits at the mere suggestion of placing guns in the hands of the Colored population? A guilty conscience is a troublesome thing. GENERAL PERSHING—pretty good authority—credits us with being excellent soldiers, not a whit more careless than soldiers of a different shade, so it is fair to assume that placing a gun in our hands is not quite the same, in effect, as putting a bull in a china shop. How sentiment does change! During the late draft the denizens below the Mason and Dixon line were eager to place guns in the hands of black boys—so eager, in fact, were they to push them to the front—that the question arose, Where is the Southern white boy? But our boys were going "over there," some difference from staying right here. We can assure Southernners they need have no fears that we will be anything but good, loyal, law-abiding citizens, as we have ever been. Military training will stimulate rather than stagnate our desires along that line. THE EXPERIMENTER who kick two dogs—one a bull, the other a cur—finds the aftermath quite different; that's why the latter is called a cur. There is a like difference between a manly man and one on the jellyfish order. The besetting sin of any nation or of a portion of the people is to retard the mental growth of a group within their gates. The South today is fifty, perhaps a hundred, years behind other sections of the country, simply because of the policies pursued in regard to our people. So long have we been under their thumb, they actually fear our awakening will bring real things. Nothing is farther from our minds. In coming into our own it is not necessary to step on our oppressors—simply brush them gently but firmly aside, that we may continue to climb the ladder of good citizenship. NATION WIDE military training will carry to our young men and boys in the backwoods of the South what they are sorely in need of, an education, without which they will continue to be hewers of wood and carriers of water. The nation must never again find itself unprepared to strike a blow for democracy, for the cause that is dear to every American, human liberty. Let us prepare today. Who knows what tomorrow will bring? "PROTECTING THE CRIMINALS" WE ARE FREQUENTLY accused by some of shielding and protecting the criminals who are identified with our group. This is not and never has been the agenda of the LEGEND OF THIS FACT creates a feeling of sympathy for many of the accused. This fact, inexcusing or justifying the alleged act, but with a view, if possible, of securing a criminal trial investigation and trial. That this is impossible in certain sections has been demonstrated time and time again, the most recent being last week in the white juror who, in the conscientious discharge of his duty as a juror, held out against convicting a member of our group on trial for an alleged crime. THIS JUROR WAS NOT ONLY ASSAULTED but forced to agree to a THIS JUROR. This did not satisfy the mob spirit. He was subsequently compelled to give up his job and his business and future prospects on account of the offense committed in the first instance in presuming as a juror, even under oath, that a Colored man accused of crime can possibly be innocent. This is not only a travesty of his business and future prospects but also strates the viciousness of state sovereignty through and by which there are no protection to the individuals against the sentiment of any particular location where the mob sentiment is strong enough to dominate and control the local community. IT IS AGAINST a travesty like this that members of our group complain, and complaining we are placed in the attitude, in the opinion of some, of protecting the criminals of our group. If in all localities those accused of crime could be assured of a fair and impartial trial there would be no occasion for protection. Any effort is ever made by any members of our group to protect our criminals.

AMERICAN PAPERS are again carrying stories of Jack Johnson, the pupilist, and stirring up much interest not only in the sporting world but in police circles in his threatened home coming. Opinion is divided as to what his fate will be in the future, holding the prison doors will be closed on him, others that he will get off with a nominal fine. This has a tendency to smooth out many wrinkles and temper many judgments and in this case his crime may not seem so unpardonable as it did in those yesterday. WE HAVE NO INCLINATION to shield wrong-doing, if such the courts prosecute him, and hostile popular sentiment shall no play in mating out punishment. One man suffered on account of the actions of one member in this particular instance. Jack Johnson was heralded in the hostile press as being a leader and therefore expressing the views and sentiments of the rest of his group, a conclusion that was absolutely false and unjustified. He was a prize fighter with us, nothing more, nothing less, and with his social scale with us Jess Willard and others of his life occupy in the Canadian group.

We have thanked that note the victims of these four great enemies from 1953 now cases on Feb. 3, to 330 on Feb. 9. But this should be no indication this should in no wise cause us to cease our activism in our observation of the laws of hygiene and right living, knowing as we do that this is the season of the year the greatest enemies to thrive. The weather conditions favor cold, grippie, "fur" and pneumonia; many of our housing conditions favor the above mentioned diseases and, most important, often invites instead of preventing them. Colds When you have a cold it is a clear indication that your system is up to its highest point of physical activity. If you are catching, is they are catching; they extend from one person to another. When the person who has a cold is careless about taking care of your health, if you remain in close contact with the windows and doors closed in an overheated room or house, or if you are in a crowded street car, theater, church, building, or plague where people are coughing and sneezing and fail to protect you by covering their mouths and noses with a mask, you are thinking the seeds of cold infection to all persons who come in contact with them. Do not be misled by cold—if you yourself are thinking cold is something to be coped with can wear the cold off. Any cold infection lasting over 24 hours, with watery eyes, burning, rawness in the mouth, or a disfigure whatever for food, profuse discharge from the nose, are indications that your cold infection is of a severe enough character to confine you within the house. You should accordingly consult your physician as to your physical condition; but, by all means, ease work—oase all physical activities and be back to normal physical condition. Grippa Gripe is our second great enemy of this season of the year. Gripe comes in several forms. It may follow a cold infection or it may come upon you when you ache, aching in all bones—general soreness—this form is known largely as the rheumatoid form. Another form in the nervous phenomena. You have weakness, prostration—high fever—burning in the eyes—no particular pain throughout the body—no particular aching in bones and joints, but a general weakness, prostration. Your heart is very weak, the light is painful to your eyes—you have general weakness in knees, dislocation in feet when you try to walk. The muscles are weak. Your heart also indicate that you should remain absolutely quiet in bed with the room properly ventilated—the temperature and follow the advice your physician gives, thus foll the deadly enemy—gripe. There is a gastro-intestinal form of gripe. This form affects the alimentary tract apparently that is the reason you have persistent and constant, vomiting. Nothing will stay on your stomach. neither food nor medicine. You will often complain to the doctor "that his medicine is too strong" or "that every time you take the medicine, it makes your stomach worse." You have no desire for food of any kind, on the contrary, you have an aversion for food. You may desire something cold, such as ice cream or ice lemonade, cracked ice, etc. The best thing in this condition is to take nothing into your stomach—just let your stomach rest. Place hot cloths to head, thoroughly cleans, bowels and rest. You should not live in low nature to get rid of the toxins or poisons in your system that are causing this nausea of stomach and vomiting. In other words, let your stomach "Flu" and Pneumonia "Flu" and pneumonia—"The Captain of the Man of Death"—is more severe, more serious and starts more suddenly than gripe or cold infection. Influenza is more often followed or accompanied by pneumonia starts with severe chill, bounding pulse and high fever and general nervous shock. It comes on more gradually than does influenza, and with very high fever—more suddenly with very high fever—more suddenly in an hour is 104 to 105 or 106—intense burning in eyes, headache, backache, aching in bones, coughing sneezing in many cases there is profuse bleeding from the nose, vomiting of blood—the menstrual flow in women often is started, in many cases blood is passed with urine—bleeding from the bladder. These is not a normal response to a return and, you believe that you are troubled with piles or hemorrhoids. Our Suggestion We suggest, we urge upon you to not attempt to bluff or trifle with influenza or pneumonia, but go to bed—remain in bed—never mind about your influenza. If you feel just so long as you have cough, dizziness, weakness in the knees and loss of appetite. Do not depend so much on medicine to gain your strength, but your pain is capitulated—spend 75 to $100 and use Judicious rest and eating of three good meals a day will do more good than using Vache salve, Slan's liminum, etc. that you can use or use tonic to regulate your bowels and stimulate your appetite and depend more on good hygiene and right living. A GOVERNOR ON THE JOB Edwin P. Morrow, governor of Kentucky, proved his caliber and justified when he took personal charge of supporters when he took personal charge of the mob. a mob attack on the reformatory at Frankfort, the state capital. A Negro who had confessed to the man's crimes was the object of the mob's indignation. It at Lexington and made its advance in automobiles upon Frankfort. The ca. fatal was notified of its coming, and the city organized a defensive force and directed the resistance with the sheriff as his aid. It was met as it entered the city and warned that if it did not disperse voluntarily it would be compelled to by armed force. It dispersed. The inmates in the South have had like opportunities. Not all have shown Morrow's courage and devotion to law. But wherever a man is found to stand by law and order and do his civic duty, the citizen, the mob meets its master. Cowardice is in the heart of the mob. Only when there is a greater cowardice in the hearts of those who should defend the city, the mob succeed.-Chicago Daily Feb. 9. A WILLING HANDMAID Another bomb was thrown at midnight Monday; this time at the property purchased by the Appomattox club, located at 3623 Grand boulevard, now occupied by Mrs. W. D. O'Brien (white). The last and the most recent was no doubt intended to bring the fight into the immediate zone in which members of our group live. This method of resenting new invasion by our people is carried on at the instance of an organization which should be known as "The Black Hand Society." This last attack is significant in that it has been used so largely as its members not only some of our best citizens, but the officers and a number of the rank and file of the old 8th Regiment, which did so with great dignity, in establishing what they call a "world democracy." The soldiers who fought and barred their breasts to the rain of lead and shell no doubt thought that they were right to establish democracy which is elastic as to cover the un-American conditions complained of in their own country. It is strange that every element of their breakers can be ferreted out and some of their authority who stands between them and insults. It is also observed that whenever a bomb is thrown at the residence of any member of our group, it receives a message from the group. The Tribute with special headlines, to the end that the bomb-throwers are never at a loss for an influential organ in which to run their propaganda. Along with this, the morning could be observed a kind of velled sympathy with the perpetrators of the deed. Its attitude, however, in this connection, should occasion surprise because it is ultimately the group's enjoyment the free and untrammeled spirit of Americanism. Real Estate News' Opinion That the large real estate dealers and property owners of Chicago are out of sympathy with the tactics of the corporate and the protective League is evidenced by the following excerpt from the Real Estate News, the legitimate organ of the profession. "No matter how much we may sympathize with the old residents of these districts now so exercised over what they consider danger to their property, we are not going to them. What they are up against is not the overvaunting ambition of the Negro, but a big economic fact, and that the gentleman's agreement of association members not bombs and bullets. The Negro has property, has increased in wealth, and is too mail for him, and he on his way for better things and for relief from crowding. He is bidding for real estate man, and he may men may for it, and so long as he that the white man will be displaced. As for moving into white districts, in that the Negro is within the law and living within an undoubted legal right. The above editorial seemingly sets out pretty clearly what the better element of white people think of the Hyde Park ganda. Chicago Tribune, please copy.

Cox and Bishop Conner, Rev. Cox and Bishop Brough and other white people, signed the petition to Gov. Allen of Kansas requesting the latter to return Hill to Arkansas for trial. If these men know that twelve-of-of our citizens were condemned to death in four minutes. The Colored people here are very indignant over the actions of these three men who held a mass meeting condemning them. They are considered here as traitors, because they know that no Negro ever gets tied up or trapped when a white man infiltrates. They know that he will be tried by a jury selected from the same community that furnished the jury which condemned the others; they also know that no white man has been convicted of the fact that there were at least 16 or 20 Negroes killed at the time of the riots by white men. Bishop Conner, Rev. Cox and Prof. Bishop Brough, Rev. Cox and Bishop Brough and did not speak our sentiments. Yours, J. A. B. QUESTIONS FOR CONNER, ET AL. QUESTIONS FOR CONNER, ET AL.

What he gives to the they give that his fate may not be similar to the eleven men convicted—and sentenced, with a witness for their defense, in four minutes?

It will say "Bill Williams, Negro," or "Sam Jackson, Colored," etc. It has no difficulty in identifying to many and it certainly has always been a source of annoyance to the members of our Race. Why should the nationality of the criminal, when he are a member of our group, be plotted simply for that reason? It certainly is not because a crime committed by one of us is any more of a nationality than the issue of a daily; the men are concerned by buried pooled murderers. Here is the paragraph mentioned, with the addresses omitted: "The members of the alleged gang are Joseph Howard, Peter Reat, Joseph Herzog, Charles Vellniak and Joseph Bailey." We have five names, and each one is characteristic of a different nationality, carrying us, consecutively, through what might be American, Scandinavian, Gorman, Jewish and Indian. This is a line that is mentioned. On the page opposite the above was a big head line telling all about the efforts to lynch the criminal, Gorman, and that there isn't a world of inconsistency in practices of this sort we are greatly mistaken. Let us have the idea of mentioning the nationality of the criminal in publicity in these cases or not at all. The criminal is a criminal no matter what his complexion, or race, and those who are super-predisduced a foundation for their radical ideas. Outline Plan to Avert Louisville, Ky., Feb. 13.—The Atlanta plan of inter-racial procedure was outlined by the Rev.
