Entered at the post office in Cleveland, Ohio, the second-class matter. All communications should be addressed: H. C. SMITH, Editor and Proprietor THE GAZETTE, Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio. Member Ohio Legislature, 1944 to 1996. 1896 to 1998. 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. The mixed (white and colored) Baptist ministerial association of Cincinnati last week suspended its rules and elected unanimously as its president Rev. H. D. Prowd. This is a decided compliment to the recipient and our people from a most unexpected quarter. The Atlanta Constitution says the republican party is the Negro party. That is no lie. It set him free, gave him the ballot and now and then gives him a little office and keeps the door of hope open to him. He will continue to vote the same old ticket. —Atlanta (Ga.) Age. This is but half the story. Now let Editor Pledger tell what the Afro-American has done for the republican party, and be perfectly fair. Although the government has been by far too direlict as to its cardinal duties, its duties as they relate to her enfranchised citizens, and although the great north has been almost criminally indifferent as to its own claims for national duty and preservation, yet it seems only reasonable and just, that, if the government will not bravely assert itself in vindication of the claims of citizenship, it should be the part of the voting masses to see that there be no encroachment upon personal liberty and our national constitution. This is the vital issue. Will the people assert themselves, reaffirm the action of the founders of the republican party and see that liberty is maintained? Ex-Senator Jeter C. Pritchard, of North Carolina, has been appointed associate justice for the supreme court of the District of Columbia. He is a member of the national republican committee, chairman of the North Carolina republican committee and "lily-white" leader of his state. It was at his request that the president turned down for reappointment the Hon. S. H. Vick, an Afro-American postmaster of North Carolina, because the latter refused to support practically a "lily-white" movement during a campaign in recent years in that state. The appointment of Pritchard and turn-down of Vick are among the things the president has done which only serve to pour ice-cold water on the enthusiastic Roosevelt feeling among our people. They are to be regretted. WASHINGTON'S INFLUENCE BANEFUL. After reading the Associated Press report to the daily newspapers of the country of the great Madison Square Garden meeting in the interest of Tuskegee institute held Tuesday evening in New York City and presided over by ex-President Cleveland, we are convinced more than ever that Booker T. Washington in his efforts to secure funds for his school is exercising a baneful influence, as far as the race is concerned, over the leading white men of the country who favor industrial training for our people and especially the work along this line being done at his school. Mayor Low, of New York City, in his introductory speech on Tuesday evening, and Dr. Lyman Abbott, the successor of the great Henry Ward Beecher as pastor of Plymouth church, Brooklyn, who as a speaker followed Mr. Cleveland, showed this so plainly in their remarks that no room for question is left. Their praise of the southern whites' treatment of the Afro-American, and publicly expressed sympathy and feeling for the former, and too, to the detriment of the southern Afro-American, is so clearly Booker Washington that no one can gainsay it. In his zeal and effort to raise funds for Tuskegee institute, its principal is harming our people throughout the country ten thousand times more than the school is doing the race good. We have never been satisfied with some of Mr. Washington's methods of raising funds for Tuskegee and since Tuesday night's New York meeting we are more dissatisfied than ever. The intelligent, far-seeing Afro-American cannot fail to properly appreciate what we call attention to if he will but read carefully and thoughtfully Messrs. Low and Abbott's speeches or even the excerpts from the same published in the daily papers of the country on Wednesday of this week. THE MEANEST STROKE. The Commercial Appeal of Memphis, commenting upon Secretary Root's speech, contrary to common sense and general opinion, takes the ground that the civil war was fought on account of the Negro. The Appeal in its usual characteristic manner is evasive. The war was fought to save the Union, a fact well known to all the world. It assumes to estab- Another Innocent Lynched. New Orleans; April 15.—The Times-Democrat Shreveport special says: It has been established beyond any cause for doubt that the Negro who was killed Saturday, and whose body was burned at an early hour Sunday morning as the murderer of Mrs. Alice Matthews, was innocent of the crime. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, APRIL 18, 1903. MR. ANDERSON H. BOWMAN, Well Known Musician - Business Agent of the M. M. P. A. - A Pioneer Member and One of Its First Executive Officers. The subject of this sketch, Anderson H. Bowman, was born in Louisville, Ky., coming to Cleveland in 1861. He learned the plastering trade and followed it a number of years, giving that up to railroad on the Lake Shore for a few years. He then became a musician, following that profession ever since. Mr. Bowman is perhaps the most widely known local musician in northern Ohio, having managed most successfully his well-known orchestra for over 20 years. His particular line is ANDERSON H. BOWMAN. dance music. He is business agent of the Musical Mutual Protective association and is on several important committees of that organization, also representing it in the United Trades and Labor Council of Cuyahoga county. Mr. Bowhan is a married man, having a wife and daughter, a most promising young lady. He is an interesting talker, genial, and is popular in the organization he so faithfully represents as business agent, nearly all of the members of which are of other classes or races. He is one of its founders, and with the editor of The Gazette was one of the association's first executive officers. HERBERT W. TAYLOR. The Interesting Career of a Young Man of the Race Who Is Industrious. The above is a very good likeness of one of our enterprising young men, Herbert W. Taylor, who was born March 13, 1878, at Wrightsville, Pa., entering school at the age of 6 and coming out at 16. During the summer months he worked as errand boy in a grocery store. Mr. Taylor then worked in a stone quarry, on a farm for about one year, in a lumber yard about six months, and in a rolling mill as a laborer for about two years and a half. At the age of 21 he left his native city for Cleveland and upon arrival here went to work as a building laborer, joining the Builders' Labor union June 10, 1899. After being in the union about eight months he was elected president and held that position until June 25, 1900, when he was elected HERBERT W. TAYLOR. business agent, the position he now holds. At the time of his joining the union it was a local of good only in Cleveland. Late in 1900 the local went into the international. In December, 1900, Mr. Taylor was elected delegate to the 14th annual convention of the International union held in Paterson, N. J., in February, 1901, being the first and only Afro-American delegate at the convention. It was through Mr. Taylor that the next convention was brought to Cleveland, in February, 1902, when he was elected first vice president by acclamation. The next convention was held in Ft. Wayne, Ind., and Mr. Taylor was re-elected, and in the same manner as before, by acclamation. The convention sent him to Chicago to fix up some trouble. He succeeded in restoring harmony and increasing the membership of the unions materially. During his administration as business agent of local union No. § of the Building Laborers' International Protective Union of America the membership has grown from about 50 to nearly 500 (white and colored), and from a depleted treasury to one of which they can boast. The union is in a very healthy condition. MAYOR LOW STILL 'KNOCKING.' Ex-President Cleveland Presides and Low, Abbott and Washington Speak. New York City.—Mayor Low introduced ex-President Cleveland, who presided over the meeting held here Tuesday evening in the concert hall of Madison Square garden in the interest of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial institute. Dr. Lyman Abbott followed them. Mayor Low's speech was characterized by its very evident sympathy for the southern whites. He had already given us to understand this by his steadfast refusal to recognize the Afro-American republicans of this city among his many thousands of appointments. Booker T. Washington spoke at length on the work of the Tuskegee institute. W.H.Baldwin, jr., treasurer of Tuskegee, announced that since the meeting had begun he had received two telegrams, one announcing a gift of $10,000 from a woman in Ohio and the other a gift of $1,000 from a man and woman in the south. He said that $56,000 had been needed to pay the indebtedness of the institution, and taking the gifts into consideration there was still $45,000 needed, for which he made an urgent plea, as well as for a further endowment sum. Of Interest to the Kitchen In the May Delineator the pages of illustrated cookery portray an important feature in trays for invalids. The diets suited to various kinds of illnesses are described, and in each case the repast is shown attractively served. Also, the art of making bread is explained in detail, as well as other dainties made from dough. Rhubarb, a somewhat neglected delicacy in America, affords a number of apparently excellent recipes, and the secrets of other seasonable dishes are imparted. While our leading novelist was grubbing stumps last Wednesday, some person who is undoubtedly a friend of the reading public stole the manuscript of his latest novel.—Atlanta Constitution. Under an eastern sky, Amid a rabble's cry, A Man went forth to die For me. Thorn-crowned His blessed head, Blood-stained His every tread, Cross-laden on he sped For me. Pierced were His hands and feet, Three hours o'er Him beat Fierce rays of noontide heat For me. Thus wert Thou made all mine; Lord, make me wholly thine; Grant grace and strength divine To me. In thought, and word, and deed, Thy will to do. Oh! lead My soul, e'en though it bleed— To Thee. —Methodist Magazine and Review. GEM CITY NOTES. Silver Jubilee - Home Missionary - A Southerner Speaks - Personal, Social and Church. Dayton, O.—Little Charlie Wallace, who died last Saturday, was buried from the A. M. E. church on Monday.—The Easter market given by the Juvenile Sunshine society Saturday at Eaker Street church, was a success.—Miss Beesie Harris and Mrs. Peele, of Fromm street, spent Sunday in Cincinnati with Miss Emma Savage.—Miss Flora Batson and Mr. Gerard Miller will sing at K. of P. hall on Thursday night, April 23.—The mission S. S. visited the A. M. E. church on Sunday last and the A. M. E. S. S. will visit them Sunday.—Mrs. Tom Clark was baptized by Rev. Collins last Sunday.—Miss Marie Brown spent Easter Sunday with Miss Mamie Brown.—The ladies of the Home Missionary spent a most enjoyable hour at the president's, Mrs. Wm. Sloan, on last Friday. It being Good Friday, prayer meeting was held.—Miss Anna Prichett has returned.—Miss Christina Bell is very low at the hospital.—Little Lillian Hartells is much improved.—Mr. Reynolds, of Pease street, is still very low.—Mrs. Hattie Price visited Springfield last week.—The silver jubilee of the A. M. E. S. S. was celebrated on last Sunday. Quite a number of pioneers were present. The Easter exercises were beautiful and many little tots made their parents feel very proud. The little ones spoke at the afternoon program, while the older ones spoke at night. A special choir, consisting of the Misses Daisy Crawford, Constance Henderson, Clara Washington, Mary Taylor and several others rendered special music.—The following from the Chicago Chronicle of April 1 is self-explanatory: Perhaps it might be as well, on the whole, to stop treating the Negro as a problem and begin to treat him as a human being. Of the speakers on the race question at the Physicians' club on Monday night the majority regarded it as a "problem" to be solved by doing something for or against the African race. Only one seems to have perceived that the only thing needed is to do justice—afford the African the protection of the laws, opportunity and recognition according to his merit. One white man in the south has common sense about the color question. A. F. Fox, a candidate for the governorship of Mississippi and a democrat, says that the proposal to stop schooling the Negro is an assault upon the constitution of the state. Fox asks voters to let the race question alone and devote their time to the industrial development of the state. Fox ought to be elected governor in the interest of common sense.

New York City.—Former President Grover Cleveland presided at a big mass meeting held under the auspices of the Armstrong association, in Madison Square Garden concert hall, Manhattan, on Tuesday evening. The methods and work of Booker T. Washington at Tuskegee, Ala., normal and industrial institute, were discussed. It was one of the most notable meetings that have been held in New York in the interest of the uplifting of the southern Afro-American through industrial training. Mr. Washington made the principal address. Other speakers were Edgar Gardner Murphy, of Montgomery, Ala.; Rev. Lyman Abbott and William H. Baldwin, Jr. The Hampton singers furnished music. Dialect Poems. "Songs of Cabin and field," a cycle of dialect poems by Paul Lawrence Dunbar, have been set to music by Mrs. Evelyn McCue Wright and published in a very attractive and artistic booklet. As would be naturally expected, the melodies to the several songs are simple in form, although characteristic of the verbal text. Minor harmonies predominate, and there is an absence of the rhythm so prevalent in "ragtime" music. The music, although the work of an amateur, displays a natural fund of graceful melody. The titles of the songs indicate their varied characteristics. They are: "The Deserted Plantation," "Hunting Song," "Little Brown Baby," "Christmas is a-Comin'," "Turkey Song," "Time to Tinker Round," "A Banjo Song," and fetching little "Lullaby." ```markdown ``` IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.

"I can conscientiously recommend Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to those of my sisters suffering with female weakness and the troubles which so often befall women. I suffered for months with general weakness and felt so weary that I had hard work to keep up. I had shooting pains and was utterly miserable. In my distress I was advised to use Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and it was a red letter day to me when I took the first dose, for at that time my restoration began. In six weeks I was a changed woman, perfectly well in every respect. I felt so clated and happy that I want all women who suffer to get well as I did." — Miss Guila GANNON, 359 Jones St., Detroit, Corresponding See'y Mich.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound will surely cure the sufferings of women; and when one considers that Miss Gannon's letter is only one of hundreds which we have, the great virtue of Mrs. Pinkham's medicine must be admitted by all.

In 1901 there were 96,868 horses in Paris, in 1902 91,976, and in 1903 there are supposed to be 90,000. Accordingly the loss is supposed to be due to automobiles. Ministers and Small Salaries. A New York preacher has produced figures to show how a minister can live on $12 a month. But, says the Chicago Record-Herald, why should he if he is fit to be a minister? TRADE MARK.

To the Editor: The emigration of well-to-do farmers from the United States to the Canadian Northwest has assumed such proportions that organized efforts are now being made by interested persons and corporations to stem the tide. The efforts are being initiated chiefly by railway and real estate interests in the States from which the bulk of the emigration takes place. The movement of population has taken from numerous states thousands of persons whose presence along railways in these states made business for the transportation companies. The movement has also become so widely known that it has prevented the settlement of vacant lands along these lines, parties who might have located there, being attracted to the free and more fertile lands of Canada. The result of the movement has been that the railway companies not only see the vacant lands along their lines remain vacant, but they also see hundreds of substantial farmers who have helped provide business for these railways move away and so cease their contributions. The farmers have moved to Canada because they were convinced that it would be to their financial interest to do so. In moving they have been inconsiderate enough to place their own financial interests before those of the financial interests of the railway corporations. In addition to the railway corporations, real estate dealers are working to stem the flow of emigrants. Of course every emigrant who goes to Canada means the loss of commissions on land deals by real estate dealers. Now a person has but to know what the interests are that are trying to stop the flow to know what motive is influencing their course. The emigration means financial loss to railway corporations and to real estate men. These interests therefore are not directing their opposition efforts out of any love for the departing emigrants or out of any high patriotic motives either. They are doing so purely from selfish interests. It is a matter of dollars and cents with them. They are so patriotic, they are so consumed by love for their fellow citizens that they want to prevent these fellow citizens going to Canada and getting free farms of the best wheat land in the world; and instead they want to make them stay on high priced farms in the United States where they will continue to pour money into the pockets of these railways and real estate men. One of the methods employed by these interests to stem the tide is the distribution of matter to newspapers, painting Canada in the darkest colors. These articles emanate chiefly from a bureau in St. Louis. They are sent out at frequent intervals for simultaneous publication. A writer is employed at a high salary to prepare the matter. Moreover, statements absolutely at variance with the truth have lately been published broad cast. These appear chiefly in what purport to be letters from persons who are alleged to have gone to Canada and become disgusted with it. Only a few of such have been published and they contain statements that are absurd in their falsity. Whether the parties whose names appear in connection with these letters have ever been in Canada and if so, their history while there, is to be thoroughly looked into. The discovery of their motive, like the discovery of the motive of the interests who are engineering the opposition, may prove illumining. In the meantime, however, it may be pointed out that only a few of such letters have appeared but since 1897 over 87,000 American settlers have gone to the Canadian West. Can any reasonable person suppose for a moment that if Canada was one-quarter as bad as represented in these letters the 87,000 Americans now there would remain in the country; or, if the Canadian West had not proved the truth of all that was claimed for it, the papers of every State in the American Northwest would not be filled with letters saying so? Imagine 87,000 aggressive Americans deceived and not making short shift of their deceivers. The fact is the 87,000 are well satisfied and are encouraging their friends to follow them. Anyone who sees any of these disparaging letters should remember that it is railway and real estate interests who have from purely selfish reasons organized a campaign to stem the flow to Canada. If Canada were half as bad as represented there would be no need of such an organization. The fact that such exists is of itself a magnificent tribute to Canada. Finally it should not be forgotten that the letters published are brimful of falsehoods and that 87,000 satisfied Americans in the Canadian West constitute a living proof that such is the case. The Canadian Government Agent whose name appears in advertisement elsewhere in this paper, is authorized to give all information as to rates, and available lands in Western Canada. A Mistake Somewhere. It is claimed that most of the South American revolutions are started in New York by people who are in the gun business. This must be erroneous, says the Chicago Record-Herald.

A Genuine Clinch: "A genuine citizen. "You cannot possibly escape me," he said listlessly, and with folded arms, as she looked at him with disdainful defiance in her glance. "I know you are beautiful and I am poor; that you are wealthy and I am homely; that you are good and I am as bad as any one could imagine. Yet as there is a really decent, deserving fellow after you, and as we are characters in a decadent novel, he shall be thrown over and his heart shattered, and I shall win you at the last. There is no help for it—there is no help for it. I am the real hero, though it is all a huge farce to me."

Bath, N. Y., April 13th. The first consideration of the Commandant and Officers in the conduct of the Soldiers' and Sailors' Home here, is the health of the Veterans. Kidney Troubles are the most common cause of ailment, very few of the old men escaping these in some form or other. Of course the comrades do as much as possible for themselves and one of the most popular and useful remedies employed is Dodd's Kidney Pills which seem to be almost infallible in cases of Kidney derangements. Indeed, there are among the veterans, several who claim to owe their lives to Dodd's Kidney Pills. For instance, A. E. Ayers, who came to the home from Minneapolis, Minn., was given up by four doctors in that city. He had Bright's Disease and never expected to live through it, but his life was saved and his health restored by Dodd's Kidney Pills. His experience has made the remedy very popular among the men and no one who has used Dodd's Kidney Pills for any Kidney Trouble has been disappointed. Little. But Terrible. It will astonish the victims of the grip to learn that the bacillus of that dread disease is only one-sixteen-thousandth of an inch in length and about one-eighty-thousandth of an inch in width.

It must be apparent to every one that qualities of the highest order are necessary to enable the best of the products of modern commerce to attain permanently to universal acceptance. However loudly heralded, they may not hope for world-wide preeminence unless they meet with the general approval, not of individuals only, but of the many who have the happy faculty of selecting, enjoying and learning the real worth of the choicest products. Their commendation, consequently, becomes important to others, since to meet the requirements of the well informed of all countries the method of manufacture must be of the most perfect order and the combination the most excellent of its kind. The above is true not of food products only, but is especially applicable to medicinal agents and after nearly a quarter of a century of growth and general use the excellent remedy, Syrup of Figs, is everywhere accepted, throughout the world, as the best of family laxatives. Its quality is due not only to the excellence of the combination of the laxative and carminative principles of plants known to act most beneficially on the system and presented in the form of a pleasant and refreshing liquid, but also to the method of manufacture of the California Fig Syrup Co., which ensures that uniformity and purity essential in a remedy intended for family use. Ask any physician who is well informed and he will answer at once that it is an excellent laxative. If at all eminent in his profession and has made a special study of laxatives and their effects upon the system he will tell you that it is the best of family laxatives, because it is simple and wholesome and cleanses and sweetens the system effectually, when a laxative is needed, without any unpleasant after-effects. Every well-informed druggist of reputable standing knows that Syrup of Figs is an excellent laxative and is glad to sell it, at the regular price of fifty cents per bottle, because it gives general satisfaction, but one should remember that in order to get the beneficial effects of Syrup of Figs it is necessary to buy the genuine, which is sold in original packages only; the name of the remedy—Syrup of Figs and also the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.-printed on the front of every package.
