Member Ohio Legislature, } 1894 to 1898 } 1900 to 1902 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. Will some one awaken a number of our leading McKinley republican (?) contemporaries to the fact that the president has developed a new anti-Negro southern policy for the republican party? They don't seem to have learned of it as yet. Ohio is threatened with a severe attack of "tomjohnsonitis," says the Washington (D. C.) Colored American. Our contemporary is wrong. The "attack" which threatens Ohio republicans is trouble within. It was this that secured Tom L. Johnson's election as mayor of this city, and not his personal popularity or political strength. It is internal strife that threatens republican success in Ohio this fall. Alabama, Georgia and Virginia will be the southern states to follow North and South Carolina, Mississippi, Louisiana and Maryland in the disfranchising of Afro-Americans. This nullifying a section of the fourteenth amendment to the United States constitution does not seem to be worthy the attention, serious or otherwise, of a republican chief executive and his administration, or a republican congress. This latter some month ago had the effrontery to place a premium on disfranchisement when it increased the congress representation of several of the aforementioned "disfranchising" states instead of reducing it as provided for in the organic law of the land. EQUAL SCHOOL PRIVILEGES IN NEW YORK. It is gratifying to note that the "Amended Charter Bill," known as senate bill 1341, will contain no separate school clause and that the people's children everywhere, irrespective of races, will be allowed to attend the school nearest and best suited to their convenience. This is as it should be, and we are proud of the progressive tendency of things in the state of New York. New York retains many humanitarian features of great interest which reflect high credit upon her people, and the amended school bill only proves that the citizens are engaged in doing their best for the education and uplift of the masses. Mixed schools are only a matter of justice to all concerned. They inculcate the higher sentiment of liberty and equality as they concern man. But liberty and equality mean no abuse of the right of citizenship and it imposes no infringement upon one's social enjoyment. The schools are public institutions, established for and in the interest of the people, and a separate school law, like a separate car law, would stand only as a shame and a disgrace to the great people of that state. School facilities will now be equal and every youth growing into glorious manhood can look out upon the broad domain of his own commonwealth and rejoice in the fact that the grand old Empire State bids the humblest of her citizens rise and make the best of life. A TELLING DECISION. It has been with quailing sensations of hope and fear that we have watched every decision of the Supreme court of the nation, doubting, then again believing, that in matters pertaining to those cardinal principles of justice, the claims of the Afro-American would not be uniformly disregarded. For many years in the south the Afro-American has not been tried by a jury of his peers and for years he has been tried by those who have predetermined his case. Happily, by a recent decision of the judges of that court, there shall be allowed no longer any discrimination in matters of selecting juries. For more than 20 odd years Afro-Americans of the south have suffered the humiliating indignity of being tried by men of biased minds, men whose very hearts and souls were set against them, prejudiced from an inborn spirit of caste which doomed the poor prisoners to workhouses, jails, penitentiaries and to death. The feeling was instinctive, for it has been hardly possible for the southern white man to believe that a mixed jury or a jury of black men could determine the innocence or guilt of the accused. Happily for the rights of man, the Supreme court of the nation is not always unmindful of its great duties. To the Hon. Wilford H. Smith, of Galveston, Tex., we are under lasting obligations for securing this decision in our favor. The glaring injustice has been felt much to the inconvenience of many a white and colored attorney who sought to defend his client against a discriminating court. But this need no longer be. All over this broad land the Afro-American may, through his attorney, demand a jury of his peers. Wherever Afro-Americans are convicted in the courts and it can be shown that there was a deliberate purpose to restrain Afro-Americans from serving on said jury, an appeal may be taken from the court having tried the case to a higher court. Will our people bear this in mind? Will they please talk about it and tell it everywhere, that our race may be brought to an awakening and to a sense of the opportunity that comes to them in a time so unexpected? The results which must accrue through this decision mean a change of base and a change of sentiment along the very lines upon which Afro-Americans of the south have been operating in the interest of protection in the exercise of the law. Let every Afro-American feel a deep concern for his right under the law as it is respected in Texas. So shall it be respected throughout the south. EDITOR JOHN MITCHELL ON THE SOLID SOUTH. The argument made by Mr. John Mitchell, jr., editor of the Richmond, (Va.) Planet, touching the causes and consequences of the "Solid South," is able and conclusive and affords new light upon the question in hand. As an Afro-American and representative of the race, he adduces strong and convincing points revealing the true animus of the southern mind. The very facts, which he offers, have shown the spirit and intent of that people to make themselves pre-eminently a distinctive class. Nothing has been so apparent in all our history as that the south believed themselves ordained to rule. Mr. Mitchell antedates the right of suffrage to the Afro-American and proves a determined rivalry on the part of those states south of "Mason and Dixon's line" to antagonize any measure or proposition from the north regardless of its beneficial results to the country. In almost every instance the points or reasons given as cause of the solidity of the south are pertinent and appropriate. But unless the entire north will compromise its convictions and opinions to the south and subordinate its ideas, principles and practices in commerce, religion and education, we do not believe that the perfect harmony and peace so much in contention shall ever prevail. The great north is the controlling power and head of this government. Every vital interest of the nation is involved in the action and dealings of the northern people and can never succumb to southern rule. The very life and resources of the government eminate from the thrift, the push, the power and genius of the northern mind. In population, wealth, enterprise and mental force the north heads and reigns, while the south lags in the wake of her masterly achievements. Unquestionably then the south cannot wag the body of this powerful government. It must content itself to be led and share in the fostering blessings of a "magnanimous" government. The weaker forces cannot hope to direct and dominate the more powerful elements of the nation. Like Mr. Mitchell, we do not believe that the elimination of Afro-American voters from politics would cause a breaking up of the "Solid South," nor do we believe that any action on the part of the president or congress in affording compensation for every slave once owned, would remove the cause of the trouble or allay the friction between the two sections. Nothing but growth, education, development, renovation, time and progress will break the "Solid South" and bring it to a knowledge of itself and a sense of its obligation to the cause of the nation, of liberty, humanity and justice. Instead of eliminating the Negro from politics, instead of rewarding the south for her slaves as a means of peace and harmony between the sections, the south must eliminate its animosities, its barbarism, its spirit of caste, the vile incidents of human slavery and apply her energies for the restitution of Christian intelligence, charity and love as embodied in the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God. C. B. Leek Dead. Ashtabula, O.—Charles B. Leek, the leading Afro-American citizen of this section, dropped dead of heart disease at 8:30 Saturday evening. Mr. Leek was for 25 years manager of the Lake Shore telegraph office here and was well known over the entire Lake Shore system. At the time of his death he was managing the Lake Shore depot restaurant. He was 50 years of age and left a wife and two children. He was an intelligent gentleman, modest and unassuming, who had a host of friends, all of whom mourn his sudden demise. His family and relatives have the earnest sympathy of thousands.

At the northern limit of Dwight, Ill., on the McWilliams farm there was recently cut down an old elm tree which owed its existence to the present king of England. It was barked and killed by relic hunters, because the hand of royalty had placed it there. STATE NEWS. Letters From Many Parts of Ohio Containing Local News and Much of General Interest.

The largest and oldest Sunday school in the world is that at Stockport, England. It has this year the names of 3,328 pupils on its books, of whom 1,574 are boys and 1,754 girls. About this parent school are grouped four other affiliated schools containing 1,304 pupils. The school has a staff of 223 men and 216 women teachers. It has been decided by the Taft commission that civil employees in the Philippines shall work no more than six hours a day, exclusive of Sundays and holidays, and that the larger a man's salary the longer shall be his annual vacation. The vacations will range from fifteen days to the man who gets $600 to thirty-five days to the lucky fellow who is in receipt of over $1,800. Memorials to Gladstone will be numerous in Great Britain. There is to be a monumental statue in Edinburgh, his favorite constituency of Midlothian; a memorial library is to be established in Hawarden, his home, and a movement for an elaborate national memorial is now taking shape. King Edward and Earl Spencer are actively interested in the last mentioned. In 1890 the export of butter amounted to 29,748,042 pounds, valued at $4,-187,489; they declined in 1895 to 5,598,-812 pounds, valued at $915,533; increased in 1897 to 31,345,224 pounds, valued at $4,493,364, and again steadily declined to 18,262,238 pounds in 1900. Exports of cheese, which in 1890 were 95,376,053 pounds, with a value of $8,591,042, steadily declined to 36,777,291. --- A Russian clergyman, whose church is located at Woods Run, Pa., has been making a census of his countrymen in the United States and finds that there are in all only about six hundred. These, he explains, are real Russians, and do not include many thousands who, though speaking the Russian language and belonging to the Greek church, are merely of Slavic blood in partial degree. The new French law as to the provision of seats for shop assistants came into force on Jan. 1. All shops and similar places where goods are offered for sale by a female staff must be provided in each room with a number of seats equal to that of the woman there employed. This law differs from that which came into force in Germany April 1. The latter provides only for "a sufficient number" of seats. American securities are a favorite form of investment in the royal families of Europe, and they take their place with English investments. The German Emperor has nearly three quarters of a million in American debenture bonds. The amount of his English investments is not known, and care is taken to hide their nature. The Austrian royal family has investments in Germany and in England. The Czar has almost a million in British securities. Australian papers state the experiment of the West Australian government in turning domestic cats loose in the southeastern districts of the colony to check the invasion of rabbits from South Australia has been a pronounced success. The felines destroyed immense numbers of the pests, and in some cases almost cleared the squatters' runs of rabbits. In anticipation of the demand which is expected for cats for this work, breeding establishments are being started. Ninety miles an hour on the Northwestern fast mail from Chicago to St. Paul was made by a train the other morning. The train was heavy, and when it arrived at Fairchild. Wis., the engineer found he was seven minutes behind schedule time. From Fairchild to Augusta is nine miles; the track is straight and the grade perfectly level. It is here that time is often made, but it is said that no such speed was ever made as that recorded by the operator at Augusta. It was found that the running time between Fairchild and Augusta was exactly six minutes. --- Thomas Burns and J. Bullman are two of the highest salaried jockeys in America. Since the exodus to England of most of our best riders Burns and Bullman are considered many pounds superior in skill to the other boys. Consequently their services are in great demand. W. C. Whitney has engaged Burns as first jockey for this season. The retaining fee for the lad is $12,000. Bullman will sport the colors of Richard Croker and Senator P. H. McCargen. He will receive the sum of $10,000 for his services. By act of Congress called the Lacey law, the wholesale shipping of game from state to state in defiance of game laws is prohibited. In the enforcement of this Federal regulation there has just been made at Chicago the largest seizure of game and game-law violators of record. More than 22,000 quails, ducks, prairie chickens and grouse were confiscated and suits instituted against forty-eight men as transgressors of this Federal act. These cases will be vigorously prosecuted by the government. STATE NEWS. STATE NEWS. Letters From Many Parts of Ohio Containing Local News and Much of General Interest.

The Government May Now Use the Nickel Process for Hardening Armor Plate. Washington, May 9.—The government has compromised the issue over the use of the nickel process for hardening armor plate for warships in such a way that in the future this process may be used by the government itself if it should undertake the manufacture of its own armor, or by any private concern furnishing armor for American ships. Claims have been pending for years, and in settling them the government not only closed up past issues, but insisted on clearing the way of possible complications in the future. The claimants sought to limit the adjustment to the armor furnished by the two concerns heretofore furnishing to the government. Foreseeing, however, that the government itself might wish to make armor at some time, or that competition might extend to other large concerns. Secretary Long insisted that the release be broad enough to cover armor making by the United States, or by any concern working for the government. These points finally were conceded. The compromise figure paid by the government was between $30,000 and $60,000. A COTTON BLAZE Fire at Augusta, Ga., Results in a Loss $170,000. Augusta, Ga., May 9.—A fire which at one time threatened to be a great disaster, broke out in the Union Compress Co.'s building at 1 o'clock Wednesday. An alley about six feet wide, separated the compress and Phynizy & Co.'s warehouse. A stiff breeze in a short time swept the flames over the heads of the firemen to this building, in which were stored 1,200 bales of cotton. From here the fire was blown to Whitney & Co.'s warehouse. In the Whitney warehouse there were 2,500 bales stored and soon the whole was a roaring mass of flames. The walls of this structure were the only ones to give way. Had it not been for this, the fire department could not have stopped the fire where it did. The losses on cotton are as follows: Whitney & Co., $105,000, Phynizy & Co., $50,400, Compress Co. $4,000. The loss on buildings is about $10,000. Will be a Fine Show at Night. Buffalo, N. Y., May 8.—That the Pan-American exposition as a night show will become popular is already being demonstrated by the steadily increasing attendance in the evening. The attendance last night was the largest of any weekday evening since the opening of the exposition. The concerts by three bands drew large circles of admirers. The Court of Fountains was seen at its best and the astonishment at the effect of the forest of water was the sensation of all. It will be one of the most beautiful features of the exposition. Many People Injured at a Circus. Collided in the River Detroit, Mich., May 9.—While the steamer Jupiter, up-bound, was passing the downbound steamer Oglebay in the channel in Lake St. Clair last evening, the steering gear of the Jupiter refused to work and a collision resulted. A large hole was stove in the Oglebay's forward compartment and the damage will amount to several thousand dollars. An Important Surrender. Manila, May 9.—Col.

Twenty-five years practice—seven in Brooklyn—will show you that he can do all he tells of. Can tell you what business is best for you and where. Can tell you how to win speedy marriage with one you love. How to be successful in all you doings, in short what is best to do. Her succeeds when all others fail. Positive help and satisfaction no pay at all. Or luckily it lucky. He has a medicine that will cure drunkenness; can be given patients not knowing it. Thousands through him are now Rich, Happy and Successful in all their undertakings, while those who neglect his advice are still loosening against power of knowledge through his perfect knowledge of chemistry he can impart to you a secret that will overcome your enemies and win you friends. His aid and advice have often been solicited; the result has always been the securing of speedy and happy marriage and all your wishes. In love affairs he never fails. He has the secret of winning the affections of the opposite sex. It is the curse of Spiritualism that in all large cities there are a class of men and women who claim power of possess. They have gifts, credentials nor references. Surely the colored people are not so wanting in sense as to throw their time and money away on such. DR. SHEA refers to the Hon. Charles Miller, capitalist, 281 Atlantic avenue; the Hon. Wm. Denmore, architect and builder, 47 Cleveland av. and Arthur Sewell, shipbuilder. South Brooklyn. All have known him for the past seven years. He gives a freeest of his power to all. The Doctor has praised him for years in the University of Memphis, and Louisville; understands thoroughly the diseases, spells or influences the race is subject to. He is now and always has been a true friend to the colored people and always had a large patronage from them. Please Read the Following: "BROOKLYN, June 3, 1892.—This is to certify I came to New York from Albany. I was a stranger in a strange city out of work and out of money. I had no luck in anything I undertook. What to do I did not know. A friend advised me to go and see Dr. Shea. I did; he told me the cause of all my trouble; he took me in and treated me like a brother. Through him I got a good position that very week. I had been to others; they took my money and did me no good. I bless the day I was born. I would all but kill him sick or in trouble to go to him alone. Sinceerely, ALBERT AYERS, 2937 Atlantic avenue." "BROOKLYN, Aug. 15, 1891.--This is to certify that my husband had gone away and been absent two years. I mourned for him night and day. I gave him up as dead. Hearing of the wonderful things DR. SHEA was doing, I resolved to consult him. He told me my husband was alive and well and where he was; told me he would come home and when. To my joy all of it came true. He is home now; came back like one from the dead. I also wish to say that this month I lost the sum of $2.0. I am a poor woman and I was most insane. I went to DR. SHEA and he told me I would find someone to take care of me, and as he told me I thank God there is a man gifted in our midst that can help people and tell them what to do. Sincerely, MARY MILLER.

THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, MAY 11, 1901. English Supremacy Has Vanished. London, May 9.-The annual meeting of the Iron and Steel Institute commenced yesterday. It is attended by all the prominent engineers in England, while almost all the American engineering centers are represented. Andrew Carnegie was present. The president, William Whitewell, devoted his address to American methods, declaring England would be compelled to adopt them. The principal paper was read by William Garrett, of Cleveland, England, who prefaced his remarks by declaring England's supremacy in the iron and steel trade, so long held, was now lost. Rain Did Not Deter Them. Buffalo, N. Y., May 9.—Wednesday's drenching showers had but little effect on the attendance at the exposition. The thousands of visitors simply stepped inside the buildings and gave no heed to the rumbling skies. Tens of thousands can be swallowed up in the great exhibit palaces without a sign of crowding. Another novel event connected with the exposition is announced. It is to be a coaching tournament starting from New York and ending at the Stadium. The attempt will be made to break the four-in-hand long distance coaching record. Accepted Gilbert's Resignation. Chicago, May 9.—What is regarded as a compromise verdict was reached yesterday by the directors of the Chicago Theological seminary in the case of Rev. George H. Gilbert, professor of New Testament literature at the seminary. The directors voted to accept Mr. Gilbert's resignation, but that this action was based on the charge that two of his books contain heretical paragraphs is not clear.

TO BAKING NAY. ‘Tne Irinh of It, One of the city physicians tells an amusing story about a charity patient, an old Irish- woman who sent him a hurry-up call. He found her suffering from nothing more se- rious than a severe cold, and prescribed ac- cordingly. Two days later when he dropped in to see how she was getting along the old lady was sitting up in an easy chair, her head wrapped in a camphor-saturated cloth. “Well, how are you feeling to-day, moth- er?” he asked. “Much better, preise th’ saints,” was the fervent reply. “Shure you're a foine docthor.

C., to The Peruna Med- icine Co. says the following of their catarrh remedy, Peruna: “I join with my colleagues in the House of Representatives in recom- mending your excellent remedy, Peruna, as a good tonic and also an effective cure for catarrh.” Mrs. Mary C. Fentress writes from Paradise, Tex., the following: “I think Ian say that your good advice and medicine has cured me of chronic ca- tarrh. Ihave had no pains in my head since I have taken Peruna, Ihave been ‘in bad health ever since '59, and have taken a good many medicines which were only of temporary relief. Peruna is the catarrh cure. The Peruna stopped my catarrh of the head so ‘that it did not become chronic, and 1 am very thankful for Dr. Hartman's advice and medicine.” Peruna is a specific for all catarrhal diseases, It acts quickly and bene- ficially upon the inflamed mucous membrane thus removing the cause of catarrh. Catarrh is catarrh wherever located. Catarrh is essentially the same every- where. The remedy that will cure catarrh in one situation will cure it in all situations. If you do not derive prompt and sat- isfactory results from the use of Peru- na, write at once to Dr, Hartman, giv- ing a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his val uable advice gratis.
