SMITH ATTLIED PRINTING TRADESTRIE COUNCIL CLEMALD 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. It seems as if President McKinley finally managed to give us one of the 588 lieutenants appointed in the regular army. This certainly must be very weakening to the forced enthusiasm of the loud-mouthed McKinley shouters of color last fall. The recent republican victory in Baltimore was the result of factional strife in the ranks of the democratic party of that city. We fail to see in it any cause for joy, when we remember the fact that Baltimore, as well as the state of Maryland, has been made safely democratic as the result of Maryland's disfranchisement law, whenever democracy is reasonably harmonious. Refusing a deputy auditorship because he does not regard it as a good enough place and which, by the way, has not, as yet, been offered him, seems to be about all the return ex-congressman, George H. White, is to receive at the hands of the president for his McKinley shouting of last fall and for subserviency to the chief executive of the nation while in congress. He is not the only one. There are others—Afro-Americans, too. President William McKinley and Senator M. A. Hanna have turned over the patronage of South Carolina to one of that state's democratic senators (McLaurin). We have said this several times before with the hope that some of our "leading" contemporaries who were such enthusiastic McKinley shouters last fall, would have the manhood and courage to comment upon it. Haven't you anything to say, brothers, or are you afraid to say what you ought to as loyal race advocates? The individual that edits the Washington (D. C.) Colored American would take the first prize as a vender of hot air even on the midway at the Pan-American exposition. A striking illustration of his ability is the above-named paper's editorial on John Green, published May 18. Among the many ridiculous statements the "editor" makes is: "Mr. Green has always been loyal to the interests of the people with whom he is identified." Where John is known best (here in Cleveland), that statement proves the most amusing. The appointment of Prof. Richard M. Robinson as assistant supervisor of music for 18 public schools in greater New York, and that of Prof. W. L. Bulkley as assistant principal of Canarsie public school of the same city, are two tremendous strides towards thoroughly mixed public schools—mixed both as to teachers and pupils. There are other Afro-Americans teaching in the schools of greater New York, but the two mentioned above are holding the most important and conspicuous positions, possibly more so than any other member of the race in this section of the country, as far as mixed public schools are concerned. All of which is very encouraging indeed. Elsewhere in this paper to-day we publish a few letters of congratulation on the recent Supreme court decision anent our Ohio anti-lynching law. The communications referred to are from different parts of the country and show that our people everywhere are interested, as they should be, in this state's effective law against mob violence. The two Ohio counties (Champaign and Logan) which permitted mobs to kill one and injure two other Afro-Americans have been mulcted of $6,700 as the result of the effectiveness of our law, and Logan county has staring it in the face still another suit instituted by a white woman injured by the same mob that multreated two Afro-Americans. This latter is almost certain to result in an additional verdict against the county for from $500 to $1,000. May the good work continue. HON. H. P. CHEATHAM AND CONSERVATISM. The address of ex-Congressman Cheatham, delivered recently at a banquet in Washington, D. C., contained many striking points that deserve the thoughtful consideration of our people everywhere. We glean this idea more especially from the address, that under existing circumstances while the Afro-American in the south enjoys comparatively little protection in the exercise of his constitutional rights, that while the present administration shows little concern in awakening a pure, national sentiment in his favor and while a cold and callous indifference is manifested in his defense, he had better possess his soul in all quietude and prudence. We of the north may advocate the claims of the race, we may expose the wrong and injustice done them, we may question the zeal and patriotism of our chief executive in regard to the rights and claims of Afro-Americans, we may denounce the mad ravings of Ben Tillman, denounce southern democracy and the leaders of mobocracy, because in doing so we know that we do our duty. But in the south the Afro-American finds his freedom curtailed and himself exposed to brutality and abuse, his right to vote taken from him and the very law which provides for the protection of his family denied him. Conservatism means to maintain what rights we have and by a wise and prudent circumspection add to foster these if possible. Recorder Cheatham was certainly right in taking this view of the situation. We want to save our people from massacre and extermination and it stands us in hand as leaders and guides to counsel them that the least harm shall befall them. Colored men of the south for want of wise and passionate counsel have suffered sacrifices, torture and death. God knows that even at this time there is no other protection for them in the south, except their conservatism, their prudence and the counsel of wise leaders to teach them the means of self-protection. They labor against every odds and against a cruel and merciless persecution. The government, while it protects foreigners and guards the endeared rights of Anglo-Americans, leaves the poor Afro-American at the mercy of an unfeeling and deadly southern sentiment. He must therefore be "as wise as a serpent and as harmless as a dove." Let a race riot break out in the south such as that which occurred at Vicksburg in 1874, when Peter Crosby, sheriff-elect, marched toward the city with 7,000 blacks confronted by thousands of white men from every adjoining state. The blacks knew not of their danger, for to them it was a day of grand parade; but in that dreadful retreat they were driven through a trail of blood, which betrayed a lack of wise counsel among the leaders. Conservatism does not mean a surrender of any right that is just and inherent. It favors no compromise in wrong dealing. It demands every measure of interest that is common to all men, but it enjoins circumspection and such discretion as will enable a wise man to maintain worthily those blessings which are guaranteed to us under the law. A fight is contemplated in the next congress for the repeal of the suffrage amendment, while it is also contemplated to reduce representation in the defendant states. Under these very trying circumstances it becomes Afro-Americans to guard well their claims, exercise a wise circumspection and maintain that conservatism that shall become to them a helpful barrier against treachery and loss.

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 first met Dr. Shea. I would advise all in bad luck, sick or in trouble, to go to him at once.

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 my money and to my intense joy I did find it as he told me. I thank God there is a man so my money and to that that can help people and tell them what to do.

TRADE-MARK. Recognizing the fact that there are many SO-CALLED hair-growers and hair-straighteners now on the market, and knowing to a certainty that many of these are frauds pure and simple, we wish to make a straight-forward, honest statement to the colored race through this great paper. In the year 1871 our late secretary, Mrs. S. M. Moore, through a fortunate circumstance, acquired the receipt for OZONO. It was not offered for sale or purchase to any extent until 1875, when it was put upon the market and met with marked success. After a thorough test by the colored people of that time it was pronounced an honest, legitimate remedy, true to all that was claimed for it, and worthy in every respect of the confidence of every member of the colored race, because they found it to cause the hair to grow long and straight, soft and fine, and as beautiful as an April morning. Now, whenever a genuine article appears upon the market there are always a number of people who imitate and make capital out of the merits of other people's goods. Seeing our marked success, numerous firms have entered the market, offering hair-growers and hair-straighteners, many of which are worthless, causing the hair to fall out and doing great damage to the hair and scalp, and the colored people are buying these spurious compounds, which are filled with animal fats, and do the hair more harm than good. To these let us sound a warning—be careful what you use on your hair. Do not be deceived by flaring advertisements and big words. Buy the King of all Hair Tonics, OZONO. which is sold with an iron-clad guarantee to do all that is claimed for it, or we will forfeit $50.00. Now, we ask you a plain question—would we absolutely agree to forfeit $50.00 if you are dissatisfied with our preparations, if they were not true to all we claim for them? We have advertised for several years under this guarantee, and we are glad to say that every one who has used Ozono has been satisfied in every respect. 20,000 people are to-day using our preparations, and every purchaser recommends Ozono as the King of all Hair Tonics. Ozono will positively take the Kinks out of Knotty, Kinky, Harsh, Curly, Refractory, Troublesome Hair. It will make short, harsh hair long and straight. It will cure your head of all itching, worrying scalp diseases. Itch, Eczema, Dandruff, and Scurf can not live after Ozono has been applied. It will stop your hair from falling out. It will restore gray hair to its natural color, making the hair long and soft. Now, right here, let us make a statement. Many firms are advertising remedies to straighten hair, but when they send the preparation they tell you to use hot irons. Friends, do not use hot irons; they will burn up the life of the hair, and cause it to drop out. Ozono straightens without any outside assistance. Nothing but Ozono is necessary, and the hair stays straight forever. You can stop the use at any time. The good effects on the hair are seen in a day or two after the first application. The price of Ozono is 50c. a bottle—4 boxes do the work. We make this liberal offer; which is good at any time: Cut out this coupon and send to us, enclosing with it the sum of One Dollar, and we will forward to you four large boxes of Ozono and one large bottle of Electrical Skin Refiner, which makes black skin bright, rough skin soft and pliant, and cures all skin diseases. Also removes all facial imperfections, and actually removes small-pox pits. We will also include one fancy jar of our Electrical Skin Food—Nature's great beautifier—removes wrinkles, moth patches, freckles, and all facial blemishes; makes the o. look young and the young look younger. We will also include one package of our celebrated Scalp Soap, which is absolutely CHEMICALLY PURE, and no soap but a pure soap should ever P. MRS.

Clairvoyanty ALL YOUR FUTURE will be written in an honest, clear and plain manner, and in a dead trance. Mothers should know the success of their husbands and children; young ladies should know everything about their sweethearts and intended husband.

Macame is the only one in the world who can tell you the FULL NAME of your future husband, with age and date of marriage, and tells whether the one you love is true or false. Reader, do you ever notice that some people seem to have good luck all the time, and no matter what they do they seem to prosper, while others, yourself may be, have such a hard time to get along, and no matter how hard they try, they find at the end of the year they are no better off than when they are successful because they have not consulted the right Medium, while the successful people, in all probabilities have been to one of the genuine Mediums and obtained advice. If you are unsuccessful in business, have bad luck, things go wrong with you, then you should consult Mrs. Marth. She will tell you what your trouble is, as she knows the reasons and all influences. She has spent years helping disabled persons and has brought thousands to success. For advice by letter $1.00 All letters must contain stamps. NEW YORK CITY, N. Y. Hours: 10 A. M. to 8 P. M.

A great chance this week to secure a bargain in these garments during the Department Managers' Challenge Sale at The May Co. Mr. R. T. Almy, manager of the Men's Clothing Department for The May Co., is a newcomer to Cleveland, but a clothing man with years of experience in Boston and eastern cities, and thoroughly conversant with the ins and outs of the clothing business. Mr. Almy, when seen by a reporter at The May Co., said: "While this is my first season with The May Co., I feel safe in stating that we have without doubt the most complete assortment of men's clothing to be found in any city in the union." "But," queried the reporter, "how about the challenge sale?" "Well, just step this way," said Mr. Almy, as he conducted the writer to a portion of the spacious clothing room where salesmen were busy showing and fitting on spring overcoats, while others were selecting mackintoshes, and not a few were buying new suits. "There," said the new clothing manager, "is one of the greatest opportunities presented this season for any man to get a real large, extra chunk of value for his money, for out of that line of finely tailored spring overcoats, which includes our entire stock, we are letting them go during this sale this week, your choice for $10." A careful inspection of the garments revealed that among the lot were many elegant tailor-made coats, some silk, some satin, and others lasting lined. "Many of those garments," continued Mr. Almy, "sold early in the season as high as $15, $18, $20 and $22. They are not all $20 and $22 coats—and not a full line of sizes in the higher values, but ever coat is a big bargain at ten dollars, and every man getting his size gets big value for his money. And the same is true about the mackintoshes. We are selling mackintoshes in that lot that were $13.50 and up to $20—choice for the Challenge Sale this week for $10.

Mr. J. A. Rogers, our undertaker, had charge of the funeral of Mr. John Kimbro's child last Monday and gave such splendid satisfaction and service as to call forth the praise of all who saw it, especially that of Rev. Chas. Bundy, who officiated at the funeral. The management of the Pan-American ball has made arrangements whereby the stage will be extended several feet in order to get the full benefit of the orchestra of ten pieces. A great many compliments have herefore been made regarding the inability of dancers to hear the music plainly. Now come Thursday evening, June 6th, and note the improvement. Miss Mary Robinson, of Sterling avenue, and Mr. Elijah McIntyre were married Thursday evening at the bride's home on Stearns street. The bride was employed as maid at Mr. and Mrs. J. C.

The editor of The Gazette has received an invitation to attend the thirteenth annual commencement of the St. Paul normal and industrial school, held on Thursday. A novel feature of the day was the exhibition given by the instructors of the industrial departments. This school was founded in 1888 and incorporated in 1890. James L.

They have a beautiful, airy, roomy store and the best of service. You can get anything you want at Hoyt-Kent-Sefton's. The President at Memphis. The Memphis Colored Citizen says: President McKinley was in the city this week. The Negro wasn't in it a little bit—not even allowed to shake his lily-white hands—although they fought, bled and died for him. It is evident that the president's southern policy is to keep away from the Negro. If Lincoln or Grant had been president, we know what they would have done. Bishop Turner has well said that McKinley has but little interest in the colored republicans. It runs the same at New Orleans. It was the same at New Orleans and other points in the south.—N. Y. Age.

Collins, of Eden Valley, Minnesota, went out to Western Canada last December as delegates, to look over the grazing and grain lands that are being offered at such low prices and reasonable terms. This is what they say: "We arrived in Calgary about the 20th December and although we had left winter in Minnesota and Manitoba, we were surprised to find beautiful warm weather at this point, quite equal to what we have in May in Minnesota. There was no snow nor trace of winter to be seen, and the climate was really splendid. Horses, cattle and sheep were running out, in prime condition, with plenty of feed on the prairie, and really better than that of ours stabled in the south. We are impressed with this country as one of the finest mixed farming countries we have ever seen. The immense tracts of fertile lands, well sheltered and abundantly watered, leave nothing to be desired. Leaving Alberta we returned east and visited the Yorkton district in Assinibioa. We drove out about ten miles at this point and were highly pleased with the splendid samples of grain we were able to see, wheat yielding 25 bushels, oats 60 bushels. Roots were also good specimens. From what we have seen, we have decided to throw in our lot with the Yorktoners —satisfied that this part of the country will furnish good opportunities for anyone anxious to make the best of a really good country. Any agent of the Canadian Government, whose advertisement appears elsewhere in the columns of your paper will give you full particulars of the new districts being opened out this year in Assinibioa and Saskatchewan.

Use the shortest sentence in the language containing all the letters of the alphabet formula." "Yes, sir." For the information of those who are not fishermen and may not be familiar with the shortest sentence in the language containing all the letters in the alphabet it may be well to quote the sentence. It is this: "Pack my box with four dozen liquor jugs."—Punxsutawney Spirit. A Tempting Offer. A recent issue of a musical journal published at Leipsic, Germany, contained the following curious advertisement: "Wanted—A skilled musician, who can compose before warm weather begins a tragic opera in one act. The author of the libretto will place at the disposal of the composer a house, which is furnished with a piano and which is situated near the sea in most idyllic and romantic country; furthermore, the composer will be well fed and supplied with all necessary fuel. A poor but gifted artist ought to be able to make his fortune in a place like this and under conditions such as are here proposed. Those who apply for the situation are requested to send biographical notices of themselves to the office of this paper."—N. Y. Sun. Author and Census. Apropos of the census, a well-known author got into trouble with the man who called for his "return" last Monday. The final column of the paper says that you are to "write the precise infirmity, if any, opposite the name of the person, and if the infirmity dates from childhood add 'from childhood.'" Under this heading my friend put "authorship," and the census man spent some time arguing with him that authorship was not an infirmity. "You try it and you'll know better," said my friend. "I'll put measles there if you don't go away." And the census man went away, still grumbling.—London Express.

A dear old lady was taken one day to a musical service in a Boston church. She had heard much about the fine voice of the soprano, and was prepared for a treat. She sat in rapt enjoyment until the service was over, and then turned a radiant face toward her escort, who was a young grandson. "Dear boy," she said, "you've given me a great treat. Her voice is perfectly beautiful. It made cold chills run all up and down my spine." "It's too bad, grandmamma," said the boy, "but she didn't sing to-day, though she was there. The gentleman next me says she's been suffering from a bad cold, and one of the chorus had to sing the solos for her." "What, dear?" said the old lady, looking momentarily distressed. Then her face cleared, and she patted his arm reassuringly. "Never you mind," she said. "We can come again some time; but after all, if she can make me feel that way without singing, I don't know as 'twould be wise for me to hear her, now would it?" Ar Ungrateful World.

Very few people are willing to pay more than the manufacturers' price for any article even though it be remarkably good, like Palmer's Lotion. Such was not the case with Mrs. Martha M.

Each morning wake up determined to do so much before the day ends, and yet— Before the morning is very old the dreadful BACKACHE attacks them, the brave spirit sinks back in affright; no matter how hard they struggle, the "clutch" is upon them and they fall upon the couch crying: "Why should I suffer so? What can I do?" The answer is ready, your cry has been heard, and a woman is able to restore you to health and happiness. Backache is only a symptom of more fatal trouble—heed its warning in time.

Since taking your Compound I have gained fifteen pounds, and am gaining every week. My appetite has improved, have no backache, and I look better than I ever looked before.
