Member Ohio Legislature, } 1£84 10 1898. nN CLEVELAND, OHIO, JULY 14. 1900, ———————————— THE GAZETTE Is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. ____—_—_—_—_—_—_————— The U. B, F.and S. M. T. order, which held its national gonvention in this city the past week, brought to the city some very able Jadies and gentlemen, made a good impression and a splendid showing. Principal Booker T, Washington, in suggesting the organization of a Na- tional Negro Business League, says that it is hoped that out of such an organization will grow local business leagues that will‘tend to improve the Afro-American as a business factor. We believe that this will be one of the results, and alone will justify the for- gation of such an organization. Tf ‘our people make a poor showing in anything, it certainly is in the busi- ness world. Five years ought to see an improvement of 100 per cent. in this respect. There are many Afro- Americans who throw away every year sufficient money to start in amall and payline businesses. t One of the few United States sena- tors of the “Old Guard” who remain to champion the cause of our people as they did in the early days of the republican party, is Senator Wm, E. Chandler, whose term of 16 years will expire next year. He is and has been through all these years one of the strongest members in congress, and men in public life. We sincerely trust that the senator will stand for re- election and that New Hampshire wil! do its clear duty and return him to the senate. A failure to do so would be a loss, not only to that state, but also to the entire country. Senator Chandler is a man of exceptional abil- ity and wide experience. He is a broad-gauged, positive character, and an ideal aggressive American citizen. Afro-Americans have a wonderfully ‘warm feeling for him. e In dbjecting to the’ selection of George Myers as a member of the state republican executive committee from this city, and insisting upon the selection of Col. Myron 't. Herrick, who was appointed, Messrs. F. L. Taft and E, F. Batt, members of the state central republican committee from this and the adjoining (Twentieth) districts, showed exeellent judgment. Col. Herrick is a broad-gauged man of wealth and ability and is one of President McKinley’s two or three warmest friends. The suggestion of Myers was, and will prove to be, a most disagreeble mistake, because he is neither strong with the colored people of this city, or of the state of Ohio, or of the country. His futile efforts last fall to defeat a regularly nominated local republican candidate ought to have precluded the possibil- ity of his suggestion as a member of the committee. The appointment of Col. Herrick gives this city and sec- tion of the state a representative on the committee who is entirely satis- factory, because it will eliminate the objectionable feature referrd to, as far, at least, as Cleveland and this vicinity is concerned. A careful reading of the Richmond (Va) letter upon our first page to- day ought to convince any one-who will’also xemember the proscriptive legislation of many other southern states and the manifest disposition upon thepart of northern whites gen. erally to acquiesce in the same, that caste und prejudice against our peo- ple are drawing the lines closer and closer against us. The national ad- ministration’s almost four years’ continuous effort to placate the south, culminating in the “cold shoulder” given the Afro-American at the recent Philadelphia national re- publican convention, a2 seem to be part of a well laid plan, which enters into the drawing closer of the lines referred to. There is no good judg- ment or sense indicated in closing our eyes to the fact that the position the minds and hearts of the white people of this country heretofore held by the Afro-American, is chang- ing daily and has been for at least four years, And not for the better. we regret to say. This all means that we have our future to work out with less assistance from white friends each succeeding year. It may be for the best. AN ARGUMENT AGAINST LYNCH- ING. ‘The recent lynching of two Negroes in Louisiana, who had been arrested on suspicion of having outraged and murdered a little girl at Biloxi and were in the custody of the sheriff when seized by the mob, is severely condemned by the better element of the southern press. All the evidence that had been col- Jeeted regarding the atrocious crime of whieh the little girl was the vie- tim’ went to show that only one Ne- gro was seen in the neighborhood. ‘While the evidence pointed strongly towards one or other of the two men under arrest, it was not clear which was guilty, so the mob took the two, fied them back to back, swang them frou the limb of a tree, fired a volley into their bodies, and then set Gre to their clothing. One of the victims may have been guilty. The other, was certainly innocent. «. @ The New Orleans Times-Democrat, after reciting the facts in the case, says the horrible outrage and murder of the little girl was avenged with a crime almost as bad and revolting as itself, for the avengers committed the mort terrible of wrongs in killing an innocent man in their mad, crazy de- termination not to let the guilty man escape. It adds that “nothing which has happened of late will be so potent an argument against lynching as this painfully reprehensible action of a small crowd of hot headed and law- less men of the lake shore district. It will even turn the south against lynching; for the south’s sense of jus- tice is strong as it is swift for ven- geance; and the south will not toler- ate lynching when the lynchers in- clnde the innocent with the guilty in one common doom.” It is to be desired that the effect will be what the Times-Democrat as- serts, but unfortunately there is cause for doubt. Innocent men have been lynched before, as well as many whose guilt remains unproved, but while regret has sometimes been ex- pressed for the “unforunate mistake,” lynehings have gone on as before. It is but justice to add that while crimes of this class are more numerous im the south, they are far from being un- known in the north.—Cleveland Plain Pe ricthgey KNIGHTS AND SISTERS Convened in National Biennial Ses- sion in Cleveland the Past Week—A Beneficial Order with a Military De- partment—Grand Officers Elected— ‘The Pleasures and Business of the Week, Ete. The sessions of the national grand camp of the United Brethren of Friendship, sisters of the Mysterious Ten, and state grand lodges, held here the past week, were very inter- esting. ‘Che convention was formally opened Wednesday morning, although preliminary meetings had been held both during the days and evenings throughout the week. Meetings were held in Cohen's hall, on Ontario street, in Masonic hall, on Superior street, and at St. John’s church. The order has loca! organizations in many states of the Union, and is a beneficial organization. W. A. Gaines, of Louis- ville, Ky., is national grand’ master, and Andrew J. DeHart, of Cincinnati, is grand master for Ohio. Miss Clara E, Seull, of Galveston, Tex., is nation- al grand princess, presiding over the S. M. T. branch of the order. J. H. Ayers, of Cincinnati, is a member of the national finance committee, and Henry A. Tandy, of Lexington, Ky., is grand master for that state. E. W. Chenault, of Lexington, is national knight treastrer. The versatile R. C. 0. Benjamin, editor of the Lexington (Ky.) Standard, and an attorney of marked ability, was formally grand master for Ohio and has been nation- al grand organizer of the U. B. F. Mr. W. H. Leonard, national knight commander of the military branch of the order, presided at its delibera- tions. There were 43 commanderies represented here the past week. Mon- day evening a reception was given at St. John’s church. when the delegates were welcomed to the vity by an as- sistant director of law, representing Mayor John H. Farley. ‘The most striking remarks of the evening were made by Mr. DeHart, who is a teach- er (principal) in a colored school at Cincinnati. The public was ngt ad- mitted to the business sessions of the various branches of the order. The election of officers for the mil- itary branch resulted as follows: W. H. Leonard, N. K. C., Louisville, Ky.; Sanford Sanders, 8. K. C., Cincinnati, Q.; Manules Neal, J. K. C., George- town, Ky.; H. P. Miller, N. K. R., Dayton, 0.; J. E. Lester, A. N. K. IL, Nashville, Tenn.; E. W. Chestnutt, N. K. W., Lexington, Ky.; V. H. Baker, K. C. 0. G., Cynthiana, Ky. The ap- pointive officers are: K. D., A. L. Jones; first G., F. Divene; second G., §. A. Bowers; trustees, William Smith, W. H. Gibson, A. Hooker, L. L: Steel, W. A. Gaines, J. T. Turner, E. W. Marshall; deputies, E. W. Glass, Ken- tucky; P. T. Hill, Tennessee; M, M. Tibbs, Michigan; R. M. Hammond, Ar- kansas; F. Roberts, Pennsylvania. On Tuesday evening a social was given at St. John’s church; on Wednesday evening a trolley party to Rocky river; on Thursday evening, a ban- quet at Forest Street armory, and on Friday afternoon, the parade and prize drill, picnic and public installa- tion of grand officers at Forest City park. Six lodges participated in the competitive drill: Garrison, Bell and Pride, of Kentucky lodge, of Louis- ville; Logan lodge, of Lexington; and Bell lodgej of Cincinnati. Reunion of Aged People. Columbus, 0.—At St. Paul’s church there was held on Sunday afternoon, July 1, a reunion of our aged people of Columbus, under the auspices of the King’s Daughters and Sons. The sermon was delivered by Rev. James Poindexter, now in his 81st year. It was most beautiful and touching. Prayer followed by Deacon William Jones, also 81 years of age. The mu- sie of the choir was excellent, Among those especially invited were: Mother Ezzie Lucus. 103 years; Martha Allen, 95; Mrs. S. T.

Honolulu, July 1 (via San Francis- co).—It is to the colored people of the southern states that the planta- tion owners of the Hawaiian islands will turn for relief in the matter of the vexed labor question. John Hind and J. B. Collins, of Kohala planta- tion, leave to-day for the southern states in quest of Negro laborers. ‘They have assurances that 200 or 490 can be recruited at New Orleans.

The leaders discover, too late, the certain punishment that awaits them for foolishly deserting democracy to follow popocracy.— Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette. ©The democratic ticket consists of an anarchist and an accident. The choice is one whose fitness can hardly be disputed. All that was disrep- utablé in the old democracy is joined with all that is disreputable in the new.—Seattle Post-Intelligencer. © Leaders of the democratic party have been issue-hunting for months, and their platform represents the efforts of Mr, Bryan to conciliate as many as possible of the warring fac- tions of his party. No ¢ombination of names will help them.—Denver Times. Unless all indications are untrust- worthy, Bryan and Stevenson are doomed to defeat. Bryan stands for free silver and all manner of finan- cial heresies, and the people of the United States are irrevocably opposed to such poliéy.—Philadelphia Public Ledger. the contention over the silver plank lias demonstrated clearly that the break in the democratic party that existed when Bryan was nom- inated in 1896 still continues and still makes it impossible to maintain the position of 1896 and elect the demo- cratic candidate—Philadelphia Ree- ord. [Not only has Mr. Bryan named himself—for the convention was called for no other purpose—but he has framed the platform and ordered its adoption. ‘The planks of the Ken- sas City platform on the subject of “imperialism” bear the stamp of Bry- an—they are illogieal—Boston Tran- script. ©7It is interesting to contrast the free silver plank just adopted with the free silver plank adopted four years ago. The Kansas City plank fs evidently the product of several workmen. Its object is evident enough, but the men who wrote it do not understand so well the use of words.—Philadelphia Press. tF Republicans find no fault with Mr. Bryan as democratic nominee. He embodies, better than any other liv- ing man, the present democratic principles and tendencies. The de- mo¢racy flies no false colors as it en- ters this campaign. It is a free sil- ver party, distinctively and aggressive- ly, as it was in 1896.—Boston Journal. (If Mr. Bryan is a demagogue he is not the man for president. If he is not a demagogue, then he is surely not the man for president, as in that ease he would exert all his energies to carry out the hare-brained, preposter- ous, revolutionary political and finan- cial heresies which are associated with his name.—Milwaukee Wisconsin. (The republican party is under last- ing obligations to Mr. Bryan for fasten- ing the millstone around the neck of his unhappy following. The republican victory in November will be a record- breaker—long enough, broad enough and deep enough to put Bryan and Bry- anism to sleep permanently. There never was a more striking instance of a politician digging his own grave.—Kan- sas City Journal. (Mr. Bryan is just the same man whom the country learned to know four years ago—a queer mixture of can- dor and sophistry, of courage and trickiness. The hard times are gone, and Mr. Bryan's task in 1900 is to make prosperity prove all that he said hard times proved in 1896. This will not be easy. Mr. Stevenson is a colorless sort of person, who is not likely to strength- en or weaken the ticket.—Milwaukee Sentinel. ©The nomination of Adlai Steven- son for vice president affords a very striking contrast to the nomination of Theodore Roosevelt. No one can pre- tend that Mr. Stevenson's name will give the slightest increase of interest to the democratic ticket. With Bryan and Stevenson, Nebraska and Illinois, the party has cut loose from the east entirely..

THEODORE ROOSEVELT. What One of New York City’s Leading Republican Dailies Has to Say of His Popularity. Persons who are always harping over the popularity of Theodore Roosevelt, America’s famous Rough Rider and nominee for vice president on the republican ticket, are request- ed to read the following item. The excerpt was clipped from the New York Press, a famous republican newspaper of said city, which shows he isn’t one-third as popular as some big republicans make him appear, “Yet only two years later, with na- tional issues almost precisely. the same; with representatives to con- gress to be elected to uphold the gold standard for which New York had voted so overwhelmingly in 1896; with the Spanish war so enthusias- tically urged by the people to ‘be officially’ approved by them; with one of the foremost he- roes of that war the republican can- didate for governor; with his person- al following among reformers and in- dependent republicans, independent democrats and straightout independ- ents unquestionably the largest of any man in the state, with his popu- larity among all classes of voters at that time at its zenith—with all these naturally powerful influences to as- sist him, Theodore Roosevelt very nearly lost the state. He lost New York county by 18,000, Queens by 3,- 000 and Richmond by 2.000, and he carried Winchester by only 1,000—an adverse plurality in and around New York City of about 83,000, as against MeKinley’s plurality of about 70,000, or a difference in and around New York City of more than 150,000 votes. Erie county he lost by more than 2,000, Onondago he carried by only 6,000, Monroe by only 2,700, and Al- bany by less than 1,000. The party lest congressional districts which it had won before Bryanism was dream- ed of.”"—Martinsburg (W.Va.) Pioneer Press. - Hetty Green's Great Riches. “Hetty Green's wealth consists largely of government bonds, railroad stocks and mortgages,” writes Leigh Mitchell Hodges of “The Richest Wo- inan in America.” in the June Ladies’ Home Journal. “She says she is not so fond of government bonds since the finances of the nation have be- come polluted with polities. Good mortgages of any: kind are now her favorite form of investment. If all the mortgages she holds were fore- closed to-morrow 28 churches of vari- ous denominations, in almost as many ‘states, would become hers, and four ‘cemeteries would be added to her real estate, esides these there would be blocks of great business buildings and splendid city houses, theaters, livery Stables and_ hotels, country residences, farms and ranch- es, factory buildings and thousands of acres of valuable land in all parts of the country. Several years ago she made a tour of inspection of all the property én Which she held mort- gages. She spent two years travel- ing and stayed at forty hotels in as many cities. Since then she has add- ed largely to her holdings of this kind. ‘The most conservative _esti- mates place Mrs, Green's wealth at $60,000,000, but it is probably more. She, herself, won't diseuss the mat- ter, except to say- that it is overstat- ara A Fine Gift.

The diamond jubilee of postage stamps is at hand in Great Britain. Sixty years ago the first postage stamps were issued in that country, and the collectors think that some- thing ought to be done to commemo- rate the year. A country postmaster, near Phile- delphia, has got into trouble through not understanding his business. A young lady employed in the city, who had a great many letters to” mail, bought all the stamps at the small office, thus swelling its receipts, and in return he gave her a small com- mission on the stamps. The sudden increase of receipts attracted atten- tion, and a post office inspector soon discovered the cause. Both the post- master and the speculative young lady claimed that they did not know they were doing wrong.

London, July 13.—Lord Roberts reports to the war office under date of Pretoria, July 12, as follows: "The enemy, having failed in their attack upon our right rear, made a determined attack upon our right flank yesterday and succeeded in capturing Nitral's Nek, which was garrisoned by a squadron of the Scots Greys, with two guns of a battery of the Royal artillery and five companies of the Lincolnshire regiment. "The enemy attacked in superior numbers at dawn, and seizing the hills commanding the Nek, bought a heavy gun fire to bear upon the small garrison. "Nitral's Nek is about 15 miles from here, near where the road crosses Crocodile river." "The fighting lasted, more or less, throughout the day, and receiving information of the enemy's strength, I sent reinforcements from here. Before they reached the spot the garrison has been overpowered and the guns and a greater portion of the squadron of the Greys had been captured, owing to the horses being shot; also about 90 men of the Lincoln regiment. "A list of the casualities has not been received, but I fear they are heavy. "Simultaneously an attack was made on our outposts near Durdeport, north or the town, in which the Seventh dragoons were engaged. The regiment was handled with considerable skill by Lieut. Col. Low and kept the enemy in check until they retired on their supports, and would probably have suffered but slight loss had not our troops mistaken some Boers in the bushes for our men. "Smith-Dorrien had an engagement with the enemy yesterday near Krugersdorp and inflicted heavy loss upon them." A CUNNING SWINDLE. Bookmakers Victimized Out of Large Sums by Means of Duplicate Tickets. Chicago, July 12.—Bookmakers at the Washington park race track have lost thousands of dollars through a swindling scheme that came to light Wednesday. The chief factor in the scheme is under arrest and has named two men as his confederates. All of the pool tickets used at the track are made by a down town firm in this city, and yesterday Irwin Appel, one of their employees, was arrested on the charge of stealing tickets and using them to defraud bookmakers at the track. After being locked up for an hour he confessed and named C. R. Russell and R. Leavitt, both of whom are well known at the track, as his accomplices. The plan was to watch for the issuing of tickets and then, making a duplicate, rush to the bookmaker as soon as the race was finished and cash in before the holder of the actual ticket could get around. It is impossible to form an estimate of how large the operations have been, but one bookmaking firm known as the Frisco club has been the heaviest loser and it is said that it alone is out several thousand dollars. Several other bookmakers have been hit hard. White Nominated for Governor. Charleston, W. Va., July 12.—The feature of the republican state convention here Wednesday was the keynote speech of Senator Elkins as temporary chairman. The addresses of Hon. Charles T. Caldwell in presenting the name of Hon. A. E. White for governor and of Mr. White in accepting the nomination were notably brilliant. Mr. White was nominated with usual unanimity. He was called the James G. Blaine of West Virginia by his eulogists, not only from his resemblance to the plumed knight, but for the similarity of his experience. Big Increase in the Death List. London, July 10.—The secretary of state for India has received the following from the viceroy of India: "The cholera mortality continues high in Bombay. The May mortality there was appalling. The number of persons receiving relief is 6,013,000." The governor of Bombay telegraphs as follows: "There were 10,320 deaths from cholera and 6,502 fatalities in the famine district during the last week in June. The total deaths among the people on the relief works in the British district were 5,324. The number on relief works is increasing."

Lately, at the opening of a free library at Acton, England, Hon. Joseph H. Choate, the American ambassador to Great Britain, delivered an address, and caused much laughter by his impromptu references to a baby who persisted in distracting the attention of the audience by making its voice heard at the most inconvenient moments, says the San Francisco Argonaut. The first interruption occurred early in the speech. Mr. Choate was saying: "There is a special provision for children in your library, and I think when men come to make a choice of a residence in Acton they will not forget that fact." Here the baby screamed in such a manner as to drown the words of the speaker. There was some disturbance, but Mr. Choate said: "Don't be disturbed by the baby. Nobody knows better than my Lord Bishop that out of the mouths of babes and sucklings cometh wisdom." Things went fairly well after this, the baby appearing to be flattered by the reference, until Mr. Choate was saying: "There is a book with which all of you—" Here the baby waived loudly. "Except, possibly, the baby—are familiar," the ambassador went on; "it is Ecclesiastes, and it says that of the making of books there is no end."

CREDIT SHE DIDN'T SEEK. Embarrassing Position of an Absent-Minded Woman Who Had Made a Mistake. A lady who keeps a summer boarding-house at the seashore near Boston went down the other day to look the house over and find out what must be renewed. She found numerous umbrellas left by former boarders, says the Boston Transcript, and tying them together, she took the bundle to Boston to have them repaired. She stopped in at Hovey's and laid the bundle on the floor at her feet at the counter. When she had made her purchase, she forgot her umbrellas, and absent-mindedly picked up an umbrella lying on the counter, thinking it was hers, or not thinking at all, and started off. Then the owner of the umbrella, a woman standing next her, seized her and said very sharply: "You have taken my umbrella!" Of course she apologized, feeling much cut up about it, and went on forgetting in her fluster her own bundle of umbrellas. The next day, on her way to Cambridge, she went to Hovey's and readily recovered her lost package of umbrellas, which had been kept for her. On the car for Cambridge she noticed a lady eyeing her very closely. Presently this lady leaned forward and said to her, with elegant emphasis: "You seem to have been more fortunate to-day!" It was the lady whose umbrella she had taken the day before. Twain at the Telephone. While living at his home at Hartford, Conn., Mark Twain was one morning deep in the composition of some humorism from which he expected a good deal, when he was called to the telephone. He told the servant to receive the message and bring it to him, but in a few moments was informed that the party at the other end of the wire wanted him. Provoked at the interruption, Mark went to the telephone, and, after "helloing" for some time without an answer, he used some language not generally seen in print, but which was certainly picturesque. While thus engaged he heard an answer in astonished tones and recognized the voice of an eminent divine whom he knew very well. "Is that you, doctor?" questioned Mr. Clemens. "I didn't hear what you said. My butler has been at the telephone and said he couldn't understand you."
