Editor and Proprietor THE GAZETTE. Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio. Member Ohio Legislature. 1894 to 1896. 1896 to 1898. 1900 to 1902. CLEVELAND. SATURDAY. SEPT. 26. 1903. 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 New York Age, speaking of Afro-American republicans, says: "We are allied always with alleged respectability in municipal and national politics, but we do not get anything out of it but kicks and cuffs and sneers." The truth! The emancipation celebrations on Tuesday throughout Ohio, were taken advantage of by the state republican executive committee and turned into quasi-political meetings, by furnishing campaign speakers as "orators of the day." Our people ought not to tolerate anything of the kind. SHAME!!! If King Menelik of Abyssinia, Africa, should attend the St. Louis fair as the result of the management's and the government's pressing invitations, what a time the fair Southrons of that city would have entertaining him! What would become of their bombastic "social equality" declarations—arrant nonsense? For the benefit of the Washington (D.C.) Record we will say that Tom Johnson "will beat Hanna out of his boots" here in Cleveland and this (Cuyahoga) county this fall, as well as in the state assembly this coming winter. Mark our prediction! Herrick and the republican state ticket will be elected, however. Down in Thomasville, Ga., the authorities have "nabbed" that man Mitchell, the ex-slave pension fraud. Now let the Pittsburg authorities arrest the man Douglass who has claimed for nearly ten years to have invented an automatic straw binder which he has never patented, though he has admitted selling over ten thousand dollars worth of "stock" in a company, the basis of which is his alleged invention. If Afro-American republicans of this state help the democrats this fall to control the next general assembly, it will be for the purpose of getting rid of Senator Marcus Alonzo Hanna. Since McKinley's first election to the presidency, the recognized champion of the "lilly white" republicans of the south, to whom can be credited much of the successful effort which resulted in a number of disfranchisement acts and amendments to southern state constitutions. We say this particularly for the benefit of our esteemed confere, the editor of the Charleston (S. C.) Southern Reporter. President Roosevelt may have been right in pardoning from the Alabama penitentiary those scoundrels (white) convicted of peonage, but we do not like the action just the same. The criminals were murderers, or practically that in most cases, and should have been allowed to serve their terms of imprisonment which were none too severe at best. It matters little that the trial judge and Afro-Americans of that state united in asking him to pardon the convicts. The poor black men, women and children whose lives were snuffed out by peonage, cannot be brought back to life and recompensed for their sufferings (worse than death) which the pardoned criminals and murderers inflicted. THE HIGHER EDUCATION FOR AFRO-AMERICANS. The magnitude of the work, which today confronts the Christian world, demands for ourselves the ablest minds and the stoutest hearts. Intellectual and moral development are more needed now than ever. Especially is it required of those, who stand in the rear of life's duties. Mind is the mighty lever which moves and controls the world and it is that which elevates and guides the races of men. But it must be braced and cultivated to completeness, that we as moral and thinking beings shall be qualified for any emergency. This is man's highest obligation to himself and his fellows and unless this is done he is not prepared to fulfill his mission among men. The rising youth must educate efficiently. He must be trained in whatever is calculated to make him a scholar and a public benefactor. It is the force of brain power that gives inspiration to our sublimest thoughts and to our holiest actions. The proudest inventions of men and our grandest achievements have been wrought by men of scientific and literary attainments. Our best efforts as educators and teachers should be applied in drawing out the native powers of the mind, nor should we spare any opportunity in training the mind to grasp an intellectual and moral truth. To learn a trade is important and essential, but it need not be done to the perfect of the higher education. No THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1903. race of people has ever acquired distinction through a purely industrial knowledge and it must ever remain a matter of regret, if we shall rely solely upon that for our peace, happiness and success in life. We regret to find numbers of our colleges drifting into the idea that to gain certain prominence, they must adopt the industrial system, almost to the exclusion of the cardinal object, a literary education. We believe in all progressive movements for the improvement of the human family, but we believe too in those improvements being made along lines prescribed by the calling of the individual. The founders of Avery college, Alcorn, Wilberforce and other schools, knew whereof they were building and they never designed that industrial training should supplant or take equal rank with the work for which these schools were dedicated. They fully realized the importance of training and educating the mind preparatory to all industries. We find too that not a few who have been turned out from these industrial schools are even today employed in pursuits other than the purely industrial. Many of the graduates from the Industrial department of Tuskeekee have not found employment suited to their trade. North and south, the white labor element bars them of opportunities, which they might improve. We may organize our own trades union but the trades union of the whites is opposed to Afro-American competition in any respect. The whites of trades' union in Memphis, Tenn., made a strike for higher wages. The Afro-American boss in brick laying, though standing at the head of his own fraternity in Little Rock, Ark., was called to supply the place of the strikers. Hardly had they worked a couple of hours, before they were routed and driven from their post. It is well enough that our Afro-American youth shall learn trades, but it is a serious mistake to encourage the belief that the trades are paramount to higher education and development of the mind. The labor element of the world is fast centering its forces upon American soil. Blood is thicker than water and all the great reservoirs of industrial life will be largery filled by the more favored element. We then may as well know our duty and do it. We of all races must educate, we must at least qualify the mind for earnest, active thinking, that under whatever circumstances we may be placed, we may worthily acquit ourselves. GREEN-DAVIS.

C.—The annual meeting of the Grand Fountain of True Reformers was held here recently at the new hall of the local division of the order, corner 12th and U streets, over 3,000 delegates representing thirty states being present. One session was devoted to raising $9,000 indebtedness on the Old Folk's Home and the full amount was nearly raised. The sessions were interesting and showed marked progress.

F. B. Willis (white), and other prominent men of this city. In the evening a musical program was rendered in the largest hall in the city, one feature of which was a chorus of over fifty voices. Springfield, O.—Emancipation day was celebrated here by companies of the Ninth Battalion, O. N. G., from Xenia, Columbus and Springfield. There was a parade, following which addresses were made at the fair grounds. President Josiah H. Jones, of Wilberforce college, was the principal speaker. The amusing feature of the program was the attempt to speak of one George Myers, of Cleveland, who runs a barber shop for white people in a hotel there. HERRICK WAS RATHER LATE. Republican Candidate Addresses Emancipation Celebration Meeting Says South Needs Afro-Americans. Columbus, O.—After being given up by the state central committee, Col. Myron T. Herrick appeared unexpectedly Tuesday night to address the emancipation day meeting and then found that, owing to outside rival attractions only about 300 people were at the board of trade auditorium to hear him speak. Originally Col. Herrick had declined the invitation to come, but the managers "billed" him extensively and the republican committee wired him that he must come. Late Tuesday evening the committee had heard nothing from him and had about given him up when informed that he was at the meeting. Col. Herrick declared it would never do to deport our people from America, as has been suggested, because the growing south needs our people. He denied the claim that the republican party had liberated the slaves. Lincoln and the north were simply instruments of God, he declared. Why Not Write To-Day fora Catalogue or Prospectus!

I found Dr. Shea was dead, but Dr. Ellarsoa was in his place, who told me my husband was alive and well and would come home in a few weeks. To my joy all of it came true.

I went to many doctors, but none of them seemed to know what was the matter. None could do me any good. Hearing of the wonderful works being done by Dr. Shea, the last few years, I thought I would call to see him nelfyself. I found Dr. Shea was dead and gone, but I found in his old roms, 651 Fulton street, Dr. Ellierson, a kind and sympathetic physician of wonderful power, who in a short time cured me sound and I could only and heartily recommend Dr. Ellierson to all those in sickness or distress of any kind. Moses Jones, 13 Camp street, Newark, N. J. Orange, N. J., Feb. 1, 1903—My Dear Friend Dr. Ellarson: Your welcome letter safely to hand and I hasten to answer the same. I can truly say your medicines have done me all the good in the world, and you are welcome to use my name in the paper as I want every one to know that you have helped me so much. I can thank you how grateful I am and how much I thank you, lying helpless in bed and no one seemed to help in need. my brother went to you and got something which made me right up on my feet and able to go work again. I bless God that I heard about you. From your true friend Amelia Webb, 73 Central place, Orange, N. J. New York, Feb. 5, 1903—Dea* Dr. Ellarson: I will pen you these few letters to let you know how much your treatment has done for me. I am without ache or pain, fecelling fine. Feel how long I am the old girl. When I think of how long I suffered one I came to you. I can never thank you enough for your kindness and for what you have done for me in bringing back my health. I remain truly cruel, Sarah E. Cox, The Strathmore Plats, corner 52nd street and Broadway, New York. DR. ELLARSON can show thousands such as the above. Has been carefully educated in the best medical schools. Dr. Ellarson's success is wonderful in curing Paralysis, Asthma, Sore Eyes, Nosemous, Cancers, Constipation, Ague, Dysplasia, Tay's form, Lung Complaints, Deafness, Catarut, Droplets, Nervous Debility, Heart Disease, Consumption, Diseases of Women and Children, Fits, Kidney Disease, and all strange and mysterious diseases, and others don't understand. All diseases, no matter what they may be. Nothing but honorable treatment. DR. ELLARSON will honestly tell you can be cured. Has all new remedies and new successes. Has had ample experience in public hospitals, and private clinics. No trifling with human life. Call or write at once. Do not delay. Is a registered physician. Diplomats hang in parlor.

If there was one, there were forty republicans (white and black) standing about the argumen- tative individuals and not one raised a hand to retaliate, but on the con- trary several caught and held Moore, keeping him from defending himself or retalisting. Wonder what would happen to the republican who would jmarch down to the democratic heads quarters and do what the above men- ‘tioned democrat did? At one time it looked as if the crowd was going to surge into the door of the repub- liean headquarters.

Mah Who First Hooked It. Capt. Charles P. Morris, of Charlestown, Mass., has received from Maine an 18½-pound landlocked salmon, and thereby hangs a tale. Early last summer Mr. Morris spent a few days fishing at Square lake, in Aroostook county, as the guest of Col. S. Fred Cummings. One morning he hooked a large salmon which fought for an hour and a half, and which he was confident he could in time land in the canoe. But the noon hour had come and gone, and his French Canadian guide was both hungry and nervous. In his excitement the guide swung at the fish with a landing net, breaking the line at the hook. Capt. Morris was so exasperated that he refused to fish any more during his stay at the camp. He was sure the fish was a female by the way it jumped out of the water, and he was equally certain he could identify it by the hook he had lost, which was a peculiar pattern and had been silver plated by him. The other night Capt. Morris received by express a box containing a salmon weighing $18\frac{1}{2}$ pounds, and he lost no time examining it. There, sure enough, in the mouth was the silver hook as fast as the day he had hooked the fish, and the salmon was a female, just as he had said. It came from Frank Wheeter, of Washington, and George Tobin, of Orange, N. J., friends of Capt. Morris. They arrived at Square lake one Monday morning, and Col. Cummings, who accompanied them on their first fishing trip, was relating the experience of Capt. Morris when Mr. Wheeter hooked the salmon. It was agreed that they would send the first salmon caught to Capt. Morris, and it proven to be the fish he had lost. A "STOCKING ROOM." Up-to-Date Chicago Bank to Install Apartment for the Use of Female Customers. A decided novelty in the shape of a "stocking room" is to be a feature of the new Jackson trust and savings bank, which is to be opened in Chicago soon. The room is intended to secure women customers for the bank. This statement was made recently by one of the organizers of the institution. A "stocking room," he explained, "is not, as its name would seem to signify, a place where women's hosiery is sold, but simply a room in which she can reach her money without embarrassment. When a woman patron visits the new bank she will not be compelled to admit with a blush that she would like to make a deposit of money, 'if you men will turn your heads.' She can go to the 'stocking room' and transfer her cash from her stocking to her pocket book." In Kansas City recently one of the banks installed a "stocking room," and it proved so successful that the women depositors grew rapidly in number. TRIED BY TIME. Eugene E. Lario, of 751 Twentieth Avenue, ticket seller in the Union Station, Denver, Col. says: A "You are at liberty to repeat what I first stated through our Denver papers about Doan's Kidney Pills in the summer of 1890, for I have had no reason in the interim to change my opinion of the remedy. I said when first interviewed that if I had a friend and acquaintance suffering from backache or kidney trouble I would unhesitatingly advise them to take Doan's Kidney Pills. I was subject to severe attacks of backache, always aggravated if I sat long at a desk. It struck me that if Doan's Kidney Pills performed half what they promised they might at least help. This induced me to try the remedy. It absolutely stopped the backache. I have never had a pain or twinge since." A FREE TRIAL of this great kidney medicine which cured Mr. Lario will be mailed to any part of the United States on application. Address Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y.

He Wants One that Will Command the Confidence of His People-- King Is Determined that the Army Scandals Shall Not be Repeated. London, Sept. 24.—The political crisis has taken on a phase which lends to the present situation an historical and constitutional importance of almost unprecedented interest. The king has interfered, not unconstitutionally or beyond the powers vested in the crown, but in the exercise of his prerogatives to an extent never dreamed of in the Victorian era. Premier Balfour's continued presence at Balmoral has given rise to much surmise and comment, but the Associated Press is able to state definitely that it is due to the king's determination not to assent to the formation of a new cabinet until thoroughly satisfied that its personnel is such as to ensure the efficient carrying on of the affairs of the empire pending the resumption of parliament. For years previous, cabinets were formed or ministerial vacancies filled with the mere formal presentation to the sovereign of the name of the new ministers. King Edward has done away with this tradition To such an extent is King Edward holding his power of veto in reserve that now he is almost regarded by the inner circles as more the cabinet maker than Mr. Balfour himself. Though, with his usual tact, the king has refrained from expressing any political views or infringing the initiative belonging to the ministers, this has not prevented him from expressing his genuine desire, amounting almost to a command, that steps be taken to remedy the scandals in the army administration revealed by the report of the South African war commission, and insisting that the new cabinet shall be one adapted to deal with that question. After the long conversations he has had during the last few days at Balmoral with Lord Lansdowne, Mr. Broderick, Lord Esher, who was president of the South African war commission, Lieut. Gen. Kelly-Kenny and other military authorities, the king is said to have expressed the opinion that Lord Lansdowne's record as war secretary was due more to the badness of the system then in vogue than to any defect in Lord Lansdowne's own judgment. King Edward has not shared the keen public indignation against Lord Lansdowne aroused by the report of the South African war commission, and he is understood to have consented to his lordship continuing as foreign minister. This decision has not prevented his majesty from telling the ministers that he wanted something done to improve the military muddle and that he hoped some man would be appointed who, with the commission's report as a basis, would be capable of changing the system which rendered inefficiency unavoidable. The question of having some general, notably Lord Kitehener, as head of the war office has been discussed at Balmoral between the king and the ministers, but the consensus of opinion was that such an appointment be interpreted as a modified form of military dictatorship which the public would never sanction. Parks Wins. Kansas City, Sept. 24.—After being in session behind closed doors since early in the morning, the convention of the International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers last night voted in favor of seating Sam Parks and the other delegates from local union No. 2, of New York. There were but three votes against Parks and his friends. The result was a decided victory for Parks, as it reinstates him and local No. 2, of New York, of which he is the business agent and directly repudiates the action of President Buchanan in suspending it. Began an Inquiry. New York, Sept. 24.—The commission appointed by President Roosevelt to investigate charges against the administration at the Ellis Island immigration bureau commenced its work yesterday. The commission spent the day on the island. The New York detention room was examined, the "excluded" room was visited, and particular attention was paid to the registration of immigrants, where the questions and answers were listened to. Nominated Low for Mayor. New York, Sept. 24.—The republican and Citizens' union organizations met last night, the former at the Grand Central Palace and the latter at Cooper Union and nominated to head the city ticket the candidates decided on at the conference of the anti-Tammany forces. Seth Low for mayor, Edward M. Grout for comptroller and Charles V. Fornes for president of the board of aldermen. Death of Ex-Senator Farwell. Chicago, Sept. 24.—Ex-United States Senator Charles B. Farwell died at his home in Lake Forest yesterday, after several months' illness. Mr. Farwell has been a prominent figure in politics since 1844 when he came to Chicago from Ogle county, Illinois. Haird's Supernatural Story Indianola, Ia., Sept. 24.—A sensation developed yesterday at the trial of ex-Deputy United States Marshal W. A. Richards, who is accused of the robbery of Mr. and Mrs. F. Sullivan at Hamilton on New Year's eve, for complicity in which Frank Baird is now serving a 17-year sentence. Two thousand dollars was secured. Baird, who was brought from the penitentiary, testified that Richards planned the robbery in the presence of witnesses, summoned him by telegraph on the day of the robbery, and assisted him and Charles Redrup, a cook, to commit the robbery. A Chicago Tragedy. Chicago. Sept. 24.—Wednesday morning the dead bodies of Harriet Weber and Inocenti Talamini, a marble cutter, were found on Lexington avenue just south of Fifty-fourth street. Both had been shot twice, and while there are indications that the man shot the woman and then killed himself, there are other features to the case that make it somewhat mysterious. Arthur M. Laurie, with whom the dead woman had made her home, will be held by the police until after the inquest. There is no evidence connecting him with the shooting, but he is detained as a witness. YANKEE INVENTIONS. Chinese Newspaper in the Philippines Describes an Ingenious American Contriavance. Admiral Dewey was a prominent figure at the Saratoga race. Usually he occupied a box. One afternoon a little party of farmers came up to snake hands with him, and thereafter, naturally, the talk turned to agriculture, says the Boston Post. "When I was in the Philippines," said Admiral Dewey, "an American resident brought me, one day, a Chinese paper. He said this paper would interest me because it contained an account of an American invention. Then, with a smile, he translated a paragraph that ran something like this: "The ingenuity of the Yankee is typified well in a hen's nest that he has recently invented and patented. This nest increases the laying capacity of the hens to an unlimited degree. In the bottom of it there is a trap door, governed by a delicate spring. The hen lays an egg, the weight of which causes the trap door to open, whereupon the egg drops down into a subterranean compartment, and the door closes very swiftly and silently again. The hen gets up, turns to look at the egg, but sees none there. So she decides that she must be mistaken in thinking she had laid, and she sits down again and deposits another egg, which, like its predecessor, disappears. The process continues indefinitely." UNDULY CAUTIOUS Infinite Precaution as Exemplified by the Trained Newspaper Reporter. An American contemporary, having been cast in heavy damages for incautious reporting, declares that it will be more reserved in its statements in future, relates London Tit-Bits, and asks its readers how they like the following specimen: "An alleged mad dog, said to be the property of an alleged butcher in Atlantic avenue, is said to have broken his chain yesterday afternoon and attacked the alleged daughter of Herman Joet, who claims to be a cigarmaker in that street. It will be remembered by our readers that the alleged butcher, whose name could not be learned, was arrested some 16 months ago for an alleged assault on his alleged wife with an alleged brick, and he was sent to the penitentiary for, it is stated, the alleged term of two years, but was pardoned at the expiration of a term of months by the alleged governor of the state." Proper Distinction. Little Mary's big sister was engaged to Mr. Brown, who was away on an outing trip with Mary's brother. Her father was writing to his son and prospective son-in-law and asked the little girl if she had a message to send to Mr. Brown. "What shall I say, pap?" asked she. "Why," said the father. "I believe it is the fashion to send your love." Some minutes later, her father, inquired: Some minutes later her father inquired: "And what shall I say to brother Tom?" "Well," replied the little miss, with a sigh, "you may send my fashionable love to Mr. Brown and my real love to Brother Tom."—Philadelphia Press. _____ Laundered.

Fate, Tex., Sept. 21.—Texas has seldom, if ever, had such a profound sensation as that caused by the introduction recently of a new remedy for kidney diseases. This remedy has already been tried in thousands of cases, and in almost every case the results have been wonderful. Henry Vaughan, of Rural Route No. 3, Fate, says of it: "I suffered with Kidney Trouble for over 18 months. I was very bad and could get nothing to help me till I heard of the new remedy, Dodd's Kidney Pills. I began to use these pills, and very soon found myself improving. I kept on and now can say I am absolutely cured and free from any symptom of my old trouble. "I am very glad I heard of this wonderful remedy and I would strongly advise anyone suffering with Kidney trouble to try it, for I know it will cure."

Last Year's Output Reached the Enormous Amount of 15,000,000 Tons- The World's Record. The state department at Washington has received from consular sources in Germany some notable comments on the development of the world's steel industry. Of all countries producing steel in 1902, the United States led with an output of 15,000,000 tons. Of one of the reports the department says: "These figures grow in importance when it is remembered that the world's production in 1894 was only 12,851,000 tons. Germany's production in 1902 was 7,780,000 tons, one-half that of the United States, while England's was only 5,000,000 tons, or one-third of the production of the United States. The world's total steel output for 1902 was estimated at 35,000,000 tons. This would indicate a growth of 70 per cent. in 22 years, or an increase from a little more than 4,000,000 tons in 1880 to 35,000,000 tons in 1992. The great increase is due to the introduction of improved processes, notably the flame furnace. Pennsylvania leads all parts of the world in the use of this furnace, and is followed by Illinois, New England and Ohio. "The steel produced by the Bessemer process during the last 15 years was used mostly for rails. In England more than half of the steel produced by the Bessemer process went into rails. In Germany and the United States the proportion is not so large. While the United States produced 9,306,471 tons of steel ingots in 1902, it turned out only 2,876,293 tons of steel rails, or about 30 per cent. of the steel ingot production. In Germany the amount of Bessemer steel put into rails is proportionately smaller." Her Degree of Courage. Amie had been suffering from toothache for several days.

THE GAZETTE is a practical demonstration of what can be done by the young men of our race. The editor is a young man who, by dint of INDUSTRY and ECONOMY and FAIR DEALING, has succeeded in giving to the colored people of Ohio and the country a PAPER WORTHY THE PATRONAGE OF ALL. Having been a reader of THE GAZETTE since its first appearance, and having watched its course, I feel that in justice to the paper, the editor and the race, I should urge upon the people generally, to support the paper that is PRACTICALLY identified with the COLORED people, and is in harmony with the interests and success of all without regard to Complexion.
