JULY 20, 1901. | THE GAZETTE ts the oldest, and ‘thas the largest bona fide circulation, @cuble that of any newspaper in the ‘taterest of Afro-Americans, published @ the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish ts rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. _—_—_—_————— “Chivalrous” white brutes of (Girard, La., on the night of the 15th @ynched Louis Thomas, an Afro- tAmerican, for stealing a bottle of §ep. It will soon be dangerous for qeur people in some sections of the @euth to look upon food, drink and @bothing not their own. } Mrs. Mollie Church Terrell, the re- iring president of the National As- sociation of Colored Women, certain- ®y demonstrated to the entire satis- 4action of all her ability to lead and mule. In the association’s annual con- vention at Buffalo last week she not only “bumped” Mrs. Lawson, of Washington, but also “floored” Mrs. Washington, of Tuskegee. Mrs. Ter- sell is @ positive quantity beyond all ‘question or doubt—an energetic and egeressive woman of education and bility and a credit to the race. asa years ago the national or- tion of bicyclists (white) was “sweating blood” over the question das to whether or not “Major” Taylor, eo Afro-American cyclist, ride in its contests through- ‘out the country. Since then the “lit- ‘tle wonder” has wrested the cham- wionship of America from his white ‘competitors and crossed the ocean, Jacquelin, a Frenchman, jon cyclist of Europe. Last rg the spectacle was presented of same national bicycle association Miming this same “Major” Taylor $100 ‘because illness prevented his partici- pation in one of their races at Provi- sdence, R. I. Great is the change (as far as the N. C. A. is concerned) in fthe “majors” case in a few years, ‘and far greater is the “assinical” ‘American prejudice. In spite of it all, the Afro-American is progressing slowly but surely. | The southern white people who are ‘yelling for Chinese labor to replace q@hat furnished by the Afro-American 4m that section, ought to have the ex- qerience which a compliance with their demand would bring, if it were not for the injury that others would austain. If some of these fool howl- ‘ers would only. go to the Pacific coast and get familiar with the con- ‘dition there as the result of an in- {flux of Chinese, there would come an dimmediate end to their howling. If fit were not for the suffering among ‘our people in that section the intro- (@uction of Chinese labor would fering, we would almost be willing to gray that these southern howlers be matisfiedin thematter of the introduc- ftion of Chinese labor into the south. {They have enjoyed the “gold mine” yet cheap Afro-American labor so that they would kill “the goose laid the golden egg,” in order further give vent to their con- temptible color end race prejudice. |. Swo Italians were lynched and an- other mobbed in Washington county, Mississippi, a few nights ago, and great are the efforts made through ‘the columns of the daily press of the ‘country to make people believe that the “white trash” of that county committed the crimes and that the “best citizens deeply deplore” and “regret such unwarranted lawless- mess,” etc. ‘NONSENSE! The ‘trouble is that the Mississippi amuthorities have deen “up against” gimilar propositions and know that he lynchers must be punished or a good fat Indemnity paid to Italy for welatives of the (unnaturalized) Ital- dan subjects killed. This shows what ould be done in the case of Afro- ‘Americans lynched in that section if ‘the authorities and the people of wouthern states feared and respected ‘their own government as much as ‘hey do some of the foreign powers. he lynchings of Itafians at Tallulah wand New Orleans in years past cost @ good many thousand dollars in in- demmities and have not been forgot- ‘ten. They, too, were Italian subjects wad not naturalized Americans. THE WASHINGTONS, | Mrs. Booker T. Washington cer- tainly met a Waterloo in last week's mnual convention of the National Wasociation of Colored Women. Ac- cordjng to the dispatches to the daily @ewspepers Mr. and Mrs. Washing- ‘ton saw fit to ignore a reception be- dug held by the association in order fo attend the one held in her honor @y a prominent club of white women @ Buffalo, with the result nated ‘Mibove, H this is true, our ladies in ‘fe convention who brought about Mer defeat when u candidate for the (presidency of the organization, did a gvery proper thing. It may be all — from @ financial Sandpoint, ax as Booker T. Washington and "Tuskegee Norma! and Industrial in- sutitute are concerned, for Mr. and @irs, Washington to.“pince the white first,” bat it is not all right res manly person, male and female, of our class, to stand it, espe- cially whenever there is an opportun- ity to rebuke such mistreatment. It is, too, both aggravating and amusing to note the unflagging per- sistency with which the white people of this country endeavor to make Afro-Americans accept Mr. Washing- ton as their “Moses” and leader wher his work and position make such a thing or condition, as far as he is concerned, absolutely impossible. We do not mean to say that he is not Jeader in the industrial movement along educational lines, and concede him the credit for the great work he is doing in his school at Tuskegee Ala. We are also mindful of the fact that some of the methods he pur. sues to accomplish his wonderful re. sults are very hurtful indeed to the Afro-American of the north. ——____ EASILY SATISFIED. Judging by the amount of slobber, quite a number of our exchanges have gone daft over the recent speech of fire-eater Foraker at the Ohio republican convention. This is the way of pap seekers and time serv- ers. With them words go for deeds, and all that is necessary to start tnem to slobbering over is to deal out a few high-sounding, well-round- ed sentences about the colored man and brother. Mr. Foraker’s party is in control of every department of the national government. He, himself, is a member of the upper house of con- gress. If he really thinks the Negro ‘is being wronged, why hasn’t he done ‘something? He has had ample oppor- tunity to secure the passage of a measure to insure the rights of the Afro-American that he is so solicit- ous about—on convention day. The president has had an equally ample opportunity to recommend the pass: age of such a law in his messages to congress, but he failed to do so. Practice is better than preaching. and an ounce of action is better than a ton of oratory.—Indianapolis World. We commend the above to our con- temporaries especially, for careful reading and thought, and would also call their attention to the fact that the last congress with its republican majority not only’ failed to reduce the congress representation of sev- eral southern states which in recent years have adopted laws disfranchis- ing thousands of our people, but also had the “gall” to increase the repre- sentation of two or three of these states, Not one of the many promi- nent republican senators and repre- sentatives raised a voice in protest, and too, in face of the fact that a section of the United States constitu- tion requires that a decrease in con- gress representation SHALL follow such disfranchisement as these southern states are guilty of. THAT “JIM CROW ANNEX.” With a citizens’ committee of twe or three hundred members from which all sub-committees are taken. we fail to see the necessity and wis dom of the appointment of a commit tee for any purpose, the members ot which are not members of the citi: zens’ general committee. The ap- pointment of a “colored committee” for the very evident purpose of shift ing to our people the care of the Afro-American ex-soldiers and friends who attend the G. A. R. en. campment to be held here this fall ought to be followed by the appoint ment of Irish, German, Bohemian Jewish and other race or class com. mittees, for the care of the ex-sol- | diers of the various nationalities who will also attend the encampment. To be consistent and prove that they are not intentionally drawing the color- line and creating a “Jim Crow an- nex” for purposes obvious, the citi- zens’ executive committee must at once appoint two or more of these other race or class committees. To say that they are following prece- dents established in other cities where the national encampment has been held, is no argument in favor of a “Jim Crow tag end” committee in Cleveland for this fall or any other time, or for this or any other pur. pose, because there is only one Cleve- land in the Western Reserve of this country. By this last we mean there is no city of its sizé in the country where there is so little ex- euse for such ridiculous action. The citizens’ executive committee could have saved itself much humiliation had it conferred with leading Afro- Americans before taking the insult- ing action referred to. If they do not desire to provide for the Afro- American ex-soldiers just as they do for those of other classes, without any more reference to or considera- tion for their class or color, they should give way to broader-gauged men who can and will provide for the heroes of the war of the rebellion without any regard for class or color. We are perfectly willing, and ‘80 will be all of the ex-soldiers of col- or who visit our city this fail, to ac- cept the care and treatment provided for all without reference to class or color. The oversight which resulted in a failure to place leading citizens of color upon the general and exe- cutive committees in charge of the coming G. A. R. encampment, should not lead the members of the latter into making a far greater and more aggravating mistake, namely, the creation and maintenance of a “Jim Crow tag end” committee, Cleveland has a reputation the eountry over for fairness in the matter of the treat- ment of Afro-Americans which all “Jim Crow” movements mar. This in addition to a personal feeling is what leads the intesligent and manly of our people as well as the broad- gauged whites to oppose such a dis- graceful line of action as the crea- tion of a “Jim Crow” committee, upon the part of the citizens’ execu- tive committee. We sincerely trust the obnoxious movement will be abandoned and that all concerned will understand that all calls upon.the local public for assistance, ete., ip the care of the old soldiers who will convene here this fall, will mean the same to and have a like ef- fect upon the AfroiAmericans of this community as upon all other loyal residents of every class. THE one CLEVELAND, 0., SATURDAY, JULY 20, 1901. io. | THE MOST PROMINENT IN OHIO] a a kT The most | prominent and the strongest coldred man in the state of Ohio is, in th¢ opinion of all the best thinking colored men in every part of the United|States, that brave and fearless advocate of the people's rights, the Hdn. H. C. Smith, of Cleve- land, 0. Mr. Smith fhas been a member of the legislature of Ohio for a number of years, and has made a splendid record for himself. He has been a loyal republidan all his life, and has ‘done more th help and advance the best interest} of the colored people in the state pf Ohio than any other man that we| know of. Mr. Smith was a republican and was working for the succegs of the republican par- ty, both stat¢ and national, and for the advancenjent of his race of peo- ple when Gedrge A. Meyers and J. A. Brown, of Ohjio, did not know wheth- er they were|republicans or not. Mr. Smith is a mpn to be congratulated, for he does/his own thinking and talking, not Jike Meyers and Brown and one or {wo other lesser, lights, who must at} all times, before they speak or act] consult and get orders from their pdlitical masters. We have no patience of respect with that class of would-be jand so-called political leaders. Mr. Smith's) work in the legislature of Ohio will $tand there as a monu- ment to the |people in this country, and it will a bright and shining light, and it|will forever adorn the pages of hisfory when his enemies are dead and] forgotten. Mr. Smith jntroduced a Dill in the legislature, and it has become a law, known as ti anti-lynching bill to suppress mdb violence, which that alone has ceftainly been not only a credit to him} but a credit and benefit to the peopl¢ of Ohio, and it has set an example |for many of the other states to follow. Can anybojly point to one act that Meyers, Brown & Co. ever did to pro- mote the interests of their race of people except only to complain and murmur what the Hon. H. C. Smith has accomplished? If Meyers and Brown have /ever done one act to pro- mote and jadvance the welfare of theirrace of people,or anyother race, we would b¢ pleased to have them, or some of thpte friends, tell us what it was and when it was done.—Chicago (IU.)

Mr, Smith deserves the gratitude of the people for the excellant Jaw which he secured in Ohio, but the brave sheriff in Georgia also deserves commendation for the ‘brave and manly defense of a help- less prisoner from the vengeance of a frenzied mob.

In f\’ the year 1871 our late eccretary, Mrs. 8. M. Moore, through * 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 I’ met with marked success. After s 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 “4x, member of the colored race, because they found it to cause the hair to grow #§N 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 . ones goods. Seeing our marked success, numerous firms have entered market, offering hair-growers and hair-straighteners, many of which are | ‘an. Worthless, causing the hair to fall out and Soine great damage to the hair Nand scalp, and the colored people are buying these spurious compounds, which are filled with animal fats, and do the fair more harm than good. ‘To {” these let us sound a warning—be careful what you useon your hair. Do not #9 be deceived by flaring advertisements and big words, Buy the King of all Hair Tonics, | OZONO, ; #98 which fs 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 abso- mi, lutely agree to forfeit $50.00 if you are dissatisfied with our preparations, #AN if they were not true to all we claim for them? We have advertised for several years under this petrantee and we are glad to say that every one 4, Who has used Ozono has been satisfied in every respect. 20,000 revel are ray using our ceaveareoae, and every purchaser recommen: ono as the King of all Hair Tonics. Ozono will positively S take the Kinks oui of Knotty, Kinky, Harsh, Curly, Refractory, Trouble- “¥8 some Hair. It will make short, harsh hair long and straight. It will cure your head of all itching, worrying gealp diseases, Itch, Eczema, Dandruff, “x and Scurf can not live after Ozono has been applied. It will stop your hair N 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 seen #9S remedies ta. straighten hair, but when any. send the preparation they tell ine to use hot irons. Friends, do not use hot irons; id will burn up the i, life of the hair, and cause it to drop out. Ozono straightens without any AA outside assistence, Nothing but Gzano is necessary, and the hair stays straight forever. You can stop the use at any time.

The general committee recently appointed a special committee, composed of colored men, to take charge of the visiting colored troops. This committee was to have met Monday night, but only three members attended. The rest say they will not serve unless they get some representation on the general committee. Rev. Chas. Bundy said Tuesday: "We object to this 'Jim Crow' committee. If we have representation on the general committee we could handle the colored visitors without any special committee."—The Press. Revs. Dandridge Brookins, Doan, Turner, Jackson and Ferguson, as well as the Hon. H. C. Smith and thousands of others of our manly and womanly people in this city, are bitterly opposed to this latest "Jim Crow Annex." See article on page 1.

Smith, of The Cleveland Gazette, recently called on the governor and informed him of the violation of the law. The railroad commissioner of that state has had the signs pulled down.

SET PRECEDENTS AT NAUGHT. Business Women Hefuse to be Gov- erned by Axioms and Customs ef L A critic of the new woman—the woman in business—declares thaw one-half of the members of the class indorse their checks on the wrong end. Some of them, he says, are just as fatally ignorant of laws that the most ignorant man knows as are their sisters who are tenderly kept from contact with this wicked world, says the Chicago Chronicle. The business ‘woman denies this and pronounces such stories as that one going the rounds of the press about the girl who drew a check on a certain bank to cover the amount that her account was overdrawn in that bank the most preposterous of fakes. It is nevertheless true that @ stamp very rarely accompanies the eneck with which a woman pays 3 bill; that she is invariably surprised that she has to put one on an ex- press package and not a little indig- nant at the government for putting her to this trouble and expense. It is related ot one young woman who considers herself quite a person of affairs that when called upon to register at a hotel on a certain occa- sion she wrote herself down in big black letters as Miss “Pussy” Brown, that being her pet home name. And she moreover invariably hid the key of her room under the carpet in the corridor when she went out, instead of taking it to the office, as the aver- age indivdiual does. Another woman, this one with a bank account, is strangely averse to paying by check, but will travel all the way into town, a distance of 25 miles, to draw the money for her debts, and will then mail the bank notes to the firms which she wishes to pay. Asked her reason for this vagary, she replies that it would be such a disappointment to people who expect money to open an envelope and find only a slip of paper. Yet she is a clever woman and conducts a poultry farm with marked success. ‘There are women who never keep a receipt for money they've paid and who have to settle many a bill twice in consequence, and there are those who deem receipts themselves wholly unnecessary and troublesome and are willing to trust to the honesty of human nature. Yet all of these call themselves business women and would be highly indignant if anyone cast an aspersion upon their ability to take care of themselves.

C.—The tabulation of the population by sex, nativity and color, under the census of 1909, has now proceeded far enough to show that the Afro-American is numerically holding his own. He has gained « firm foothold on this conti- nent, and one from which he is not likely to be soon dislodged. Previous censuses have left this in dispute. From the figures at hand it seems probable that the Afro-American population in 1900 was between 9,000,- 000 and 9,050,000. If that estimate be true, he constitutes 11.8 per cent. of the total population of the country, as against 11.9 per cent. a decade ago, the loss being due to the greater growth of the northern states. The social ostracism, which exists where Afro-Americans number less than a fourth of the population, as in the border states, is rather more galling than where they exist in such over- whelming numbers as to be sufficient unto themselves. The antagonism of labor unions is more felt in the bor- der states, since trades unionism bas ‘as yet no foothold in the far south. ‘How completely the Afro-American ‘is counted is an interesting statisti- ‘cal question. Ten years ago con- gress ordered a record made of the degree of Negro blood, whether mnu- latto, quadroon, octoroon, ete. The information furnished upon _ this point was essentially worthless. ‘There is a constant “sloughing off" from the black race going on among its lightest-colored members, usually accomplished by means of a change of residence. “One need not travel long in the south without learning of cases of this sort, and seeing many families whose appearance is so on the border line that it is impossible to tell to which race thev belong.

C., for many years was the assembhng of a lot of would- be leaders and pin-headed politicians. Recently at a banquet, then and there they organized what they were pleased to call a national organiza- tion; they elected John P. Green, of Washington, president. A number of the colored people heretofore have had some respect for ex-Senator John P. Green, but since he has got down to Washington and associating with a lot of little cheap curb-stone politi- cians, many of them occupying po- sitions as messengers and. janitors at Washington, we have not much re- spect for him. Now, these so-called leaders come out and pretend to rep- resent the colored people of the Uni- ted States. It is time to call a halt on such unwarranted, ridiculous and contemptible proceedings as are con- dueted in Washington by these little men, Editor W. Calvin Chase, of the Washington Bee, is a man who is to be applauded for the sensible posi- tion that he occupies in not having anything to do with this cheap and silly band of would-be leaders, head- ed by John P. Green, Lewis Douglass and some other lesser lights. The colored people throughout the United States have been disgusted, tired and worn out with such proceedings by a lot of cheap politicians in Washing- ton, D. C., who have no_ political standing at their own home, but by accident get a little position in Wash- ington. ‘Then they have the audac- ity from time to time to pretend to represent the colored people of the United States. . It is time for them to stop.—Chieago (IIl.) Citizens’ Press. MEN AND AFFAIRS AT HOME. Rev. Theodore Cuyler, of the Lafa- yette Presbyterian church, Brooklyn, has refused his consent to the eree- tion of a monument of himself in Cuyler park, Brooklyn. United States Senator John P. Jones, of Nevada, has over $75,000 in- vested in orange growing near Los Angeles, Cal., and has become quite &n expert judge of the fruit. Mrs. Jean Fuqua Beckham, wife of the governor of Kentucky, is only 22 years old. She met the present gov- ernor while he was speaker of the Kentucky house of representatives. President “McKinley is planning to make a trip to the northwest early next summer, visiting Washington, regon and the northern belt of states, taking in the Yellowstone park, which he has never seen. _2—2;, strors oNTHER 7/9 BF A\ N PR A N K PO 0 N Way 72 on FE’ { " VLE 1¢ me EXE ie Ce Lc | ee Pp 7 ity RUE OSI T LLL (O 5 e ING , ES aE. .

A novice or a globe-trotter alike lets down the mask which hides the inner self, when fretting over delays, care- less of others’ comfort, and selfishly monopolizing conveniences intended for the many rather than the one.— Ladies’ Home Journal, eee Pe a en She pictured his room with her phoce graph smiling down a\ him from over the Mantel, while another of her pictures looked ‘demurely at him from a leather case on the dresser. She could see him often stand®™g in front of her mirrored likeness and_ making vows of constancy and fidelity. She knew he would rather: part with anxthing be had than those pictures. But they bad quar- reled and she felt she must ask him to re- turn her photagraphe, and she wrote to him accordingly. When soe received his reply she nearly fainted. Here is what the wretch wrote: “Dear Mabel: I would like awfully much to return your pictures, but honestly you girls all dress and pose so much alike for pictures that [can't tell any two of you apart.

The wit of the tenement district urchin is irresistible, sitting at naught the dig- nity of the most dignified among his vis- itors. Some workers who are interested in boys’ clubs recently met on the ground floor of a tenement on the lower Eastside and spent an evening discussing “ways and means;” at the end of the evening the presiding officer, a xchoolman of great repute, and «thinker of precise and log cal mind, undertook to sum up the re. sults. He did it with wonderful clear. ness, and hig peroration was a work of art;' but just ax he reached his climax with his audience listening raptlf, a small boy peeking through a hole in the win. dow shouted: “You're a lobster!"—and the speaker never finished bis sentence.— N.

A new departure in French duels has been taken. In the famous fight ‘between an Italian maitre d’armes, ‘Signor Pini, and M. Thomegeux, a well-known Faris amateur, they first /set the fashion of a duel with a gal- ery. In the duel between Prince de Sagan and Abbe Hermant the pho- | tographer first came on the scene. But it was reserved for the sensa- tional duel between M. Max Regis and M. Labardesque to bring half a dozen ladies on the scene, and to have a score of police keeping order outside the cycle track, where the duel was fought, and many inside in- specting the cards of the privileged spectators. The duel, however, was not “pour rire.” Of the half dozen excounters recently seen it was the one in which the two men meant business. and it was with a sigh of relief that the spectators saw the slight wound, in- inflicted by pure accident which put an end to the encounter. The Teacher faubbed Sice Coretit. A good story is being told about Miss Marie Corelli and the proprie- tress of a seminary for young ladies at Stratford-on-Avon. It is said that when staying on one occasion at Shakespeare's native town Miss Corelli happened to be residing just opposite to the school and found the continual piano practice of the pupils jar on her nerves ‘and interfere with her work. Accordingly she decided to write to the principal and penned @ polite note asking that lady if she would kindly order the windows clos- ed when the young ladies were play- ing, as the music was rather distract- ing and disturbed her in her composi- tion. It so happened, however, that the good lady was no admirer of Miss Corelli's work and immediately sent a curt reply, saying that if she thought the practicing would stop the composition of another work like “The Sorrows of Satan” she would at once order 20 more pianos.—Interna- tional Courier.
