‘THE GAZETTE Is the oldest, and
thas the largest bona fide circulation,

We hope the report being circulat-
ed by the press of the country to the
effect that the McMillan Publishing
Co. is withdrawing from the market
William Hannibal Thomas's disrep-
utable and alleged history of the
“American Negro” is true. It ought
mever to have been published.
The Mobile (Ala.) Weekly Press
seems unfamiliar with the Afro-Amer-
ican of the North and his condition.
Our good friend, Editor Johnson,
should study both more thoroughly.
The powers-that-be in both the gov-
ernment and Republican politics care
no more for the northern Afro-Amer-
jean and his vote than for our south-
ern brethren, This is true for the
first time since the close of the war.
Ohio Afro-Americans and others of
the north are seeking to change this
condition. We do not propose long-
er to “endure the evils” without _re-
sorting to means and methods which
we feel sure will bring about a
change in our favor. It will not be
necessary to affiliate with the demo:
cratic party to accomplish this, eith:

In spite of the protest of the white
Cubans, Gov. Gen, Wood, an Ameri-
ean (white), insists upon barring the
colored Cubans from the new Cuban
artillery organization which is soon
to be formed to garrison the Havana
forts when United States troops are
withdrawn. Wood is very close to
President McKinley, who, in repeat-
edly elevating the former in the last
few years, has broken all army ree-
ords since the war of the rebellion.
He is this country's chief represent-
ative on the island and would not
dare take such a step unless it was
sanctioned by President McKinley
and Senator Hanna. The McKinley
administration is not only ignv.ing
the disfranchisement of four or five
hundred thousand Afro-Americans in
the south, but is also adding to this
vital injury the distressing insult of
mistreating colored Cubans and
‘building up an American color-line in
that country, something heretofore
practically unknown there, Ohio
‘Afro-American republicans, particu-
larly, should study carefully this situ-
ation and understand it as soon as
wossible.
Our readers will notice by refer-
ring to the Worcester, Mass., letter
‘on our first page to-day that the
statement made in The Gazette of
last week, to the effect that the
white professiona] bicycle riders of
this country had formed a combine,
‘as a result of their prejudice, to pre-
went “Major” Taylor, the champion
American cyclist, from winning the
honor again this year, is correct. Tay-
lor confirms our statement in an in-
terview published in the letter re-
ferred to. There seems to be no lim-
it to the increasing American preju-
dice against the Afro-American.
However, there is still a chance for
the “Major” to again win the cham-
pionship, owing to the fact that a
number of additions ‘have been made
to the list of circuit meets, if the
mistreatment he calls attention to is
stopped as it should be. Kramer
‘leads Taylor by about 20 points and
Lawson by two or three. The
“Major” is unquestionably the fastest
rider in the world. The very fact of
‘the existence of the combine referred
to proves this, when it is remembered
that he has so recently beaten the
champion of Europe, Jacquelin.
Much indignation prevails in col-
ered church circles, because, under
the guise of talking about poor Ruth-
ven’s conversion, Mrs. Clara A. Bissell
went to St. Paul’s church on Sunday
afternoon and delivered a republican
stump speech. But perhaps she had
to do this as part of her political
work, to earn the $10,000 which it is
said the party has promised her if
she wins back the colored vote of
@hio to Nash.—Columbus (0.) Atro-
lAmerican,
. Mrs. Bissell (white) is the lady who
espoused. the cause of Nicholas Hee-
ney (white) and had much to do with
pecuring for him @ life sentence in
the penitentiary instead of electrocu-
jtion. Heeney _ most brutally mur-
idered an old man here in Cleveland
for a few dollars, who had given him
dood when he was starving. | This
much he confessed to. Ruthven, an
Afro-American, convieted on CIR-
CUMSTANTIAL evidence none too
strong, was sentenced to death in the
game court room and electrocuted. Of
‘twenty odd persons convicted of mur-
@er, in a year, be, the only Afro-
‘American of the number, was sent to
the electric chair, and, too, on cir-
eumstantial evidence none toostrong.
‘If he killed Offteer Shipp no one saw
faim do it. Therefore there was and
‘is n0 direct proof, nor can there be,
‘that Ruthven was guilty of the crime
‘Zor which he was electrocuted. Up-
aer the circumstances, Afro-Amer-
icans of Ohio were justified in asking:
Gov. Nash to commute his sentence’
to life imprisonment, and we are in-
deed sorry that it was not done. Gov.
Nash is a gentleman: of the “old|
school,” an eminent jurist, and, we
believe, friendly to our people. Such
acts as Mrs. Bissell’s, the one to
which the Afro-American objects, are
only calcylated to aggravate an al-
ready ‘bad condition, and we suggest
their diseontinuance. The excuse
given, that Mrs. Bissell is interceding
with the governor in the interest of
a pardon fer “Mrs. Ruthven” but adds
fuel to the fire. Our people are not
interested in the woman because she
is not entitled to their sympathy, nor
was she Ruthven’s wife. We take
no “stock” in the $10,000 part of the
Afro-American’s statement.

ae LYNCHERS ASSAIL
. ITALY.
‘ TTALY.
he lynching outrages in America
still continue as an exceptional busi-
ness in the affairs of the world. It
is an extremely American practice,
but in savagery and cruelty it sur-
passes anything known among
heathen nations. Whence originated
this spirit of barbarism needs scarce-
ly any argument when it is remem-
bered that Americans trained them-
selves to deeds of crime and brutality
in time of slavery and are to-day
reaping what they sowed. But being
a people of strong mental calibre, it
seems hardly pardonable in them
that the animal should dominate the
intellectual and thus debase in char-
acter the noblest nation on the face
of the globe. But the truth of this
declaration is being yerified every
day. Enervation and imbecility seem
to constitute the dominant feature
of the national character. The dis-
play of pride and pomp and of power,
wealth and learning is no evidence in
proof that within so short a time
deterioration is, not gradually taking
the place of our once maturing
growth. But the cowardly and das-
tardly act of taking human life with-
out Jaw reveals the fact that no
man’s life is safe in America. If he
be -black or if he be poor and the
hand of suspicion points to him, the
maddened gang is allowed to do its
murderous work and no brave man
dares plead the cause of justice. The
killing of the two Italians at Erwin,
Miss., only betrays the insanity and
recklessness of a set of men whose
inordinate passions had impelled
them to over-reach their wildest
dreams, These Italians were poor
men and they were foreigners. So
these bad men considering te fact
that poor men and foreigners were
not as a matter of course in line with
the bloods and the aristocracy whose
bidding tney serve, at once assumed
the task of heartless butchers. "The
world, however, is not in sympathy
with this sort of butchery and the
continuance of cases of this kind
must eventually bring other nations
to see that an insult to Italy is an
insult to themselves and if Italy must
submit with impunity, so must they.
Bad enough as it is that Americans
kill their own citizens without law,
that the poor, the helpless and the
proscribed are made victims to law-
less bands and no word of protest
is heard from tne sister nations. Yet
if the great powers of the earth un-
derstand themselves in their relation
to each other, it becomes them to
shield not only their citizens and sub-
jects, but to insist that the l<@s of
Christian civilization and of justice
shall be everywhere enforced and
respected. Americans have no more
right to murder one of their own
citizens without law than they have
to seek and take life in some foreign
country. Life at home should be held
more sacred. The ties of a common
citizenship and a common people
should be so endearing to every
American heart that no man should
lose his life without the verdict of the
law ‘But Americans more in the spir-
it of sheer cowardice abuse their own
.authority and strike with vengeful
hand those who are ofttimes found
to be innocent victims. Southerners
themselves ure to be concerned in
this lynching. They invite immigra-
tion to their section and Italians for
very good reasons seek those states
most congenial to themselves, and it
is claimed that there is need in the
south of that sort of labor for which
Italian immigrants from the peasant
classes are so well adapted, and even
a million of Chinamen, it is said, are
urgently needed in the south and at
onct. ‘This seems to be the demand
of the southern white press. But if
the Negro labor element of the south
is to share so little protection in life
and property, what inducement can
there be to any laboring class to seek
homes among the southern people?
We are of the opinion that the same
spirit which defies law and vents its
spleen in vengeful wrath against one
labor element will lead to greater
complications and involve the coun-
try in such international questions
as to baffle the best efforts of the
government to allay the growing evil
of the mob unless more stringent
measures are adopted to destroy now
and at once the force and influence
of the lynchers. Mob violence should
‘be suppressed, the leaders of the mob
should be hunted down and they
should die. The taking of human
life is an unpardonable crime; be-
cause it is an assault upon the life of
the nation, and he who sheds human
blood in the name of the mob, and
especially innocent blood, is as much
a murderer as the tried and convicted
criminal dying upon the gallows,

From one end of the country to
the other our prominent men, news-
papers and organizations, including
many of our old soldiers and sailors,
are denouncing in no uncertain tones
the “Jim Crow” attempts of the lo-
cal G. A. R. encampment citizens’
executive committee. This is as it
should be. We predicted when the
“Jim Crow tag end” committee was
first constituted and then reorganiz-
ed that that was only the beginning
and that other color-lines would be
drawn as the preparations for the
encampment progressed. Now comes
a “Jim Crow” camp-fire—just as we
predicted—and all the Afro-American
veterans who come here to attend
the national G. A. R. event will be
crowded into the Grays’ armory on
September 11, if such a thing is pos-
‘sible. Those of the original commit-
tee (a majority) who refused to
serve on the “Jim Crow” committee.
are entitled to unqualified praise.
‘Lnose who were appointed to succeed
them and accepted show that they
are ashamed of their action by
keeping their names from the pub-
lic. hat they have that much
shame left is all that surprises us.
Their acceptance of a place on such
& committee shows what they are,
and our people should mark them.
‘The excerpts rrom the newspapers
and the letters that follow, are self-
explanatory. Messrs, Douglass and
Pinn are both old soldiers, the latter
being an official upon the staff of the
commander of the G. A. R.:
“The citizens’ committee” of Cleve-
land, O., would not dare sidetrack
lu colored heroes of the civil war,
were it not for a kindred feeling in
the G. A. R. ranks. True, there are a
few Grants, Shermans, Healys and
Butlers ieft to battle for right and
they have the power to enthuse oth-
ers and gain a signal victory and
send ithe hydraheaded demon—caste
—to everlasting oblivion. In defense
of the Union and the flag, the blood
of black and white mingled, and
their bones bleached on hundreds of
battlefields, and now, in their hoary
age and decrepid condition, will the
old men—all on the verge of the
grave —turn their backson the black
heroes of Richmond, Petersburg,
Nashville, Port Hudson, Fort Pillow,
Olustee and other famous battle-
fields? God forbid. Had it not been
for these black men’s bravery the
flag may ‘have been torn to shreds
and the sacred cause of right and the
life of the Union lost. Read the fol-
ing and then swear to God as But-
ler did, and live and die by the oath
as he did, and let us live for all time
to come, as we fought, in love to-
gether—Martinsburg (W. Va.) Pio-

JIM CROW IN CLEVELAND.
True to its record, The Cleveland
Gazette devotes considerable space to
the action of the committee, in that
city, in making preparations for the
G. A. R. meeting there this fall. It
seems that at first no attention was
paid to the Negro at all, When it was
discovered that several thousand Ne-
gro comrades would attend the en-
campment, an “auxiliary” committee
composed of 18 Negroes was appoint-
ed. Out of this 18 only four or five
attended the meeting, as will be seen
by reading The Gazette article in an-
other column. The World is glad to
note that a majority of these Ne-
groes refused to accept the appoint-
ment on this “Jim Crow” committee.
If there is any place where the color-
line should not be drawn it is certain-
ly in Grand Army circles. It was by
the bravery of the white soldier that
the Negro received his freedom and
was admitted to citizenship. The Ne-
gro troops were placed on the same
footing and received ‘the same pay as
the white troops. There was no
“quxiliary” committee at Fort Pillow
where so many Negro troops were
ruthlessly slaughtered. There white
and black stood shoulder to shoulder,
with their faces to the foe, until
overpowered by the enemy. There
was no “auxiliary” committee when
the 54th Masachusetts, on the 18th of
July, 1863, under the leadership of the
gallant Col. Shaw, charged Port Wag-
ner and left half its number dead or
wounded upon the field, Col. Shaw be-
ing among the killed. Negro soldiers
were good enough then to lead the
assault and draw the fire of the reb-
els, and we are sorry to see the situs
ation as it exists in’Cleveland. That
situation, however, is not of the Ne-
gro’s making and he ought to be able
to stand it if the white man can, Our
friend, Hon. H. C. Smith, of the Cleve-
land Gazette, deserves great credit
for the persistent and imtelligent
fight he is making against this condi-
tion, and we are inclined to think
that the failure of the majority of
the “auxiliary” committee to attend
the meeting is due in a great meas-
ure to his well directed blows against
such things in the past. With enough
papers like The Gazette and The
World to keep pounding away at the
Negroes who show a disposition to
play second fiddle in cases of this
kind, there are grounds for a faint
hope that in time the race will reach
a point. where all will refuse to assist
the white man in drawing the color
line in such affairs as a G. A. R. en-
campment, at least. — Indianapolis

DOUGLASS’ LETTER.
Washington, D. C., Aug. 3, 1901.
Friend Smith: Your exposure of
the “Jim Crow” features of Cleve-
land’s entertainment for the Grand
Army encampment is timely. I re-
gret that it cannot get into every pa-
per in the land so that no self-re-
specting Negro veteran will darken
the doors of Cleveland or accept its
“Jim Crow” hospitality.
Yours truly,
CHAS. R. DOUGLASS.

Hon. Frederick Dougiass.)

Editor Gazette, Dear Sir: In to
day's Cleveland Leader under the
head of “Program for G. A. R. Week”
‘on page 5 is printed a list of camp-
fires, and among them is the follow-
ing: “Gray's Armory, Sept. 11--Camp
fire of Colored Veterans. Speakers:
President MeKinley, Hon. Charles W.
Anderson, Gen, O. O. Howard, Gover
nor Nash, Hon. T. E, Burton, Corpo-
ral Tanver, I am acquainted with
all of these men except Charles W.
Anderson and know that they are not
“Colored Veterans.” Has it ever oc-
curred to you that the managers of
the preparations for the encampment
are treating the colored people very
Shabbily? “If the colored veterans
are to have a camp-fire it seems to
me that the speakers ought to be
mainly colored men, It seems to me
that the object of the committee is
to sidetrack the colored veterans so
‘far as allowing them to have any-
‘thing in common with their eom-
rades. This encampment proposes to
be a meeting of all veterans of the
Civil War and they are supposed to
meet upon a common level and min-
gle freely with each other. It is
neither an encampment of white vet-
erans nor of colored veterans but I
am sorry to note the fact that in
your city of Cleveland, where, if at
any place, we would’ expect fair
treatment, we have seen the color
line drawn in all of the preparations.
I see no colored men’s names on the
lists of any of the committees, but
instead there is one and perhaps
more colored committees. Why
is this? Can the people of Cleveland
explain? ‘The veterans who propose
to visit your city have certainly not
asked that any such distinction be
made. Very truly yours,

London, Lngiand.—The Afro-Amer-
ican delegates to the international
ecumenical council, which is to meet
in Wesley's chapel in City road, Lon-
don, next month are already arriving.
Their advent. is causing unexpected
difficulty at one of the big hotels in
the West End, where a large number
o1 fool white Americans are staying.
The latter affected amazement at
the announcement that some 200
Afro-Americans were coming, pro-
tested to the proprietor, and asked
that the Afro-Americans be accom-
modated in a separate part of the
hotel. They got a “hot turn-down.”
The proprietor declined to inter-
fere, with the result that some of the
prejudiced Americans are already ar-
ranging to leave, much to the satis-
faction of those most concerned.
The proprietor says: “I could not
think of offering an insult to such
men as Bishop Derrick, of New York;
Bishop Tanner, of Philadelphia;
Bishop Gaines, of Atlanta, and
Bishop Arnett. I told the Americans
that when the Indian princes were
here no one objected to meet them,
and I don’t propose to make any dis-
tinction at the expense’of Africans.”

person who marries a Negro, and a
fine of $200 for the minister or officer
who performs the ceremony. The law
provides no penalty to the Negro con-

As to Mixed Marriages.
It is said that mixed marriages—
those of whites and Negroes-—have
inereased in New York City in the
past five years. In 1895 there were
729 such marriages, 369 Negroes hav-
ing married white women, and 360
colored women having been married
to white men. Last year there were
1,846, in which 920 Negro wo-
men = were married to white
men, and 926 Negroes married
white women. While we are not the
least anxious to see this kind of
business carried on, we prefer it to
the system of concubinage so gener-
ally “practiced between the races
throughout the south. This unlaw-
ful system is responsible for a great-
er number of lynchings than is the
‘gnnamable crime to which they are
usually credited—New Orleans 5. Ww.

CLAIRVOYANT.
MRS. MARTH, the world-renowned and
highly ‘celebrated business and test TRANCE
CLAIRVOYANT, reveals everything. No im-
position. Can bé consulted on all affairs, of
fe. Business, Love and Marriage a specialty.
Every mystery revealed, also, of absent, de-
ceased and living friends Removes all
trouble and éstrangements, unites the sep-
arated and causes speedy ‘marriages. 1.000
challenge to any medium who can exceed her
in her startling revelations of the past, pres-
ent and future events of one’s life Remem-
ber, ske will not for any price flatter you: you
may rest assured you will gain facts without
nonsense. She can be consvited upon all
affairs of Lite, Love, Courtship, Marriage,
Friends, ete.. with description of future com-
panion.’ She is very accurate in_ describing
missing friends, enemies, ete. Her advice
upon sickness, change in ‘business, journeys,
lawsuits, contested wills, divorce and specu-
lation {s valuable ard reliable. She reads your
Gestiny—good or bad; she withholds nothing.
MRS. MARTH, born with a double veil, tsa
seventh daughter, tells your entire Iife-past
"present and future—in a DEAD TRANCE; has
‘the power of any two clairvoyants you ever
‘met. She tells whether your present sweet
heart will be true to you and if he will
marry you; if you have no sweetheart,
she will tell you when you will have,
‘and his name, business and date of ac-
quaintance, Clatrvoyantly ALL, YOUR FU-
‘PURE 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. Do ‘not keep company,
‘marry or go into business until you know all!
do not let silly religious scruples prevent your
consulting.
Maaume 1s the only one tn the world who
¢an 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.
Keader, do you ever notice that some people
seem to have good luck all the time, and no mat~
ter what they do they seem to prosper, while
others, yourself may-be, have such @ 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 started. ‘This is
Decause they have not consulted the right
Medium, while the successful people, in all
probabilities, have been to one of the genuine
fediums und 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 understands the spells
knd evil influences. She has spent years help-
ing distressed persons and has brought thou-
sands to success. For advice by letier $1.00
