The Gazette

2 ALL IRED PRINTING TRADE'S SCHOOL COUNCIL CLEVELAND. SATURDAY. OCT. 24. 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. Hanna has been a member of the U. S. senate for years and has NEVER opened his mouth in that body in defense of our much abused people, though Tillman, Carmack, Richardson and other brutal southern senators have called us everything but human beings. Please remember this. Strange that not even on the stump, nor in interviews, does Hanna denounce disfranchisement. Perhaps the fact that for many years he has had a home in Cleveland, Ohio, and another in THOMASVILLE, GEORGIA, has something to do with it. Think it over. Has any one ever heard Ohio's junior senator, the Hon. Marcus Alonzo Hanna, the idol of the lily-white republicans of the south and their disfranchising democratic allies, ever denounce lynching (or mob violence which concerned the Afro-American), disfranchisement or the "Jim Crow car" system Great friend (?) of the race, is he! Did Hanna exhibit the slightest interest in that section of the Chinese exclusion act when it was pending in the last congress, which deprives our people of the citizen right of testifying in United States courts in certain cases? What in all his career has he ever done for Afro-Americans or anybody or anything else, McKinley and the trusts excepted, upon which he can base his ridiculous claim or request of support from Afro-Americans? Ask any member of the race who lives in Cleveland how many Afro-Americans are or ever have been employed about Hanna's home here in this city; how many in the employ of his companies that employ thousands of whites of almost every other nationality or class of people on the face of the earth, and then draw your own conclusions. The writer has known Mark Hanna for many years and verily believes that our bitterest enemy, the brutal, foul-mouthed and one-eyed Tillman, pays more money direct to Afro-American employees than Hanna ever did or does. Hanna has no love for the Afro-American, is our thorough belief after years' knowledge of and experience with him. OUR JURY SYSTEM Judge Hammonds of the United States District Court of West Tennessee, has pronounced in strong and logical terms against our present jury system. From a standpoint of loyalty and justice to the people from whose sovereignty our government must stand or fall, he demands a jury of men who will have the courage of conviction. Of what avail can a jury be to a community of people whose rights for protection and justice are miscarried through fear of public opinion, through cowardice or sycophancy? Yet it is for lack of the highest qualities of intelligence and true manhood that Judge Hammonds is constrained to denounce the present system. The imperfection of human nature does not mitigate the burden of responsibility imposed upon the individual juror to dispense complete justice to all men irrespective of race, circumstances or condition. But overcome through cowardice, the plaintiff is robbed of his rights or the defendant in other instances is restrained of his liberty. Justice to the plaintiff or the liberty of defendant, one or the other is compromised, or traded away. The innocent may feel justified in relying upon the integrity of his case, but the accused from the very condition of things is oftimes as well satisfied that the verdict of the jury will be in his favor as if already given. He determines his acquittal from the very complexion of that jury. If a strong and influential citizen is concerned as defendant, he is more than likely to gain the suit, or if he be poor and without influence, the verdict is against him. Jurors nowadays will not brook the opposition of the strong and wealthy class and hence the innocent is made to suffer for the guilty. The presumption is, that a jury shall render its verdict according to the law and the evidence, yet without the evidence in hand, unless it is preponderatingly in favor of the one or the other, the verdict is rendered in the interest of the more favored party. Every day reveals the astounding fact that jurors are in many instances controlled by feelings of fear than from their sense of duty. Lawyers can sometimes determine before hand what the verdict will be. It happens too, that very incompetent jurors are placed in the box more through favoritism to the exclusion of the more capable whose right as jurors could not be disputed. Judge Hammonds certainly said something when he ican jurors. He sounded the keynote which demands the attention of the people in every quarter of the country. There is need of amendment in this respect and it should be made. But there is in this connection a matter which is equally as grave. No court and no bench of jurors can discharge its duty or render justice so long as there is the slightest discrimination involved. Black men in the south are almost universally excluded from the jury. Southern white men sit on their cases and render their verdicts even to suit themselves. But pending a case between a white and colored person, there is not a white juror that will deny having his sympathy with his white brother. There are thousands of intelligent Afro-Americans, brave, manly, upright and learned who are fully capable to serve as jurors, yet are denied this right while illiterate, imbecile and incompetent whites are called in their stead. The judge proclaims to the world the shameful cowardice of the American jury, but the basest and most cowardly act in the management of juries is that which denies a man through prejudice the right to be tried by a jury of his peers. TO FIGHT FOR LAND. Former Slaves of John Randolph Claim 300 Acres in Mercer County, Ohio. Indianapolis, Ind.—Thirty old ex-slaves, the survivors of a family of 300, who formerly "belonged" to John Randolph of Virginia, are now instituting legal proceedings for possession of 3,200 acres of land in Mercer county, Ohio. They claim that the land was willed them at the death of their master, he having given them their freedom and willed each of them ten acres of land before his death. W. E. Henderson is attorney in the case. At. New Bremen, Ohio, the canal boat on which they were traveling was held up by German settlers and they scattered in all directions. The land was eventually sold to white settlers and is now valued at $300,000 or more. Most of the thirty live in this city, old and decrepit, but several live in adjacent states. They all met here and resolved to make a trial for the land. Action will be brought in Toledo by Attorney Henderson. Biblical Essay the Main Feature. Biblical Essay the Main Feature.

"Douglass a Fraud or a Fool." We clip this from the Pittsburg Independent: August 29, 1903. "Friend Hall: Just saw the Independent. Write Hon. E. H. Morris, Chicago, Ill., about Douglass Automatic Straw Binder Co., before indorsing it. Douglass has "worked" Chicago, Cleveland and other places. He has patented nothing to bind with. Been selling "stock" for about ten years. "H. C. SMITH. The above statement . . . Mr. H. C. Smith appears to be false and with no grounds." The Independent goes after Bro. Smith with a club for telling this bit of truth. Harry C. Smith is an old and faithful servant of the race and has never been known to betray his people or to seek to shield or cover up a bunco scheme or a confidence game when he saw it was being played on his people. Smith is right and the Independent is wrong. Douglass is a fraud or a fool, pure and simple. There is nothing to his binder worth the paper this is being written on. The "stockholders" writing from Chicago and commending the Douglass are either myths or a few dupes who, finding themselves the losers, on the principle that misery loves company, have sought to draw others into it. We speak for Chicago; it is a stupendous fraud or a fake, and we warm all persons everywhere to let it alone. Hand this around in the name of the Conservator.—Chicago (Ill.) Conservator. Much Married Minister Deposed by Conference. - Paris, Ill.—The Illinois conference, A. M. E. church, in session here recently deposed from the ministry Rev. F. M.

Fort Riley, Kan., Oct. 22.—Five states against the United States, and practically an even break all around, was the result of the army exercises yesterday. The military situation for the day was that each detachment of state troops should take up a defensive position and there await the attack of a force of regular troops against it. In each case the attacking party was the advance of an imaginary army. The Iowa, Kansas, Texas, Nebraska and Missouri regiments were engaged. Fatal Dynamite Explosions.

The editor of The Gazette has re- ceived an invitation to attend the twelfth marrizge anniversary of - Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Dean on Wednesday evening, Noy. 4, at 20 MayHower street. It is said that Mrs. Hattie Walker gave a reception on last week ‘Thurs- day evening to a few “blue-veins’ and their darker allies, in a hall on Superior street. She had previous to this made personal visits to a number of ladies’ homes in an effort to orga- nize a dancing class, the first session of which was to have been held on Monday evening of this week at the sathe place, It seems that those who were members of this class were not invited to the affair on last week Thursday evening and the result is, that there are some very “warm” ja- dies whose social standing in this community is far better than some of the afore-mentioned “blues” and al- lies. It is also said that many, if not all of them, refused to be present on Monday evening at what was to have been her dancing class’ opening, and say that they will under no cireum- stances affiliate with it as a result of last week's affair. Mrs. Walker, it is also said, insists that she did not give the reception of last week Thursday night. On the contrary, there -are those who claim that “the cat was let out of the bag” by a chance remark of Eddie Dunjill, as well as those of ethers. Be that as it may, a good deal of friction and feeling has been generated as a result of the last week affair, It is now said that another effort will be made to convene the dancing elass on next Monday even- ing, but it will hardly be successful unless there is a very material change ‘in the present condition of affairs. “Phe education of the Afro-Amer- ican-Industrial, Intellectual and Mo- val” was the pricipal topic of diseus- sion at the 37th annual meeting of the American Missionary society at Plymouth church on the 20th) 21st and 22nd. The question was discussed fully and frankly by men who have made a careful study of present con- ditions. Some of the speakers were Afro-Americans. About thirty of these delegates were expected. There were also reports of the work of the association's missionaries in Alaska and Porto Rieo. Music was furnished by a company of jubilee singers with whom are Mr. and Mrs. Honesty, Mrs. Gilliam Lewis and Mr. James Y.

Denver, Col., Oct, 25.--The attorneys for Brig. Gen. John Chase, com- tiander of the national guard of Colo- rado, now on trial before a court-inar- tial, are leading the court into a maze of legal technicalities. On the roster of the court there are but two attor- neys. Yesterday the court decided that Gen. Chase made a legal oath in his return in the habeas corpus cases on which the perjury charge is found. ed, although the notary testified that he had not formally swore the gen- eral. Adjt. Gen, Bell was called to the stand and asked as to the source of his authority in the field. Attorney Elliott, for the defense, raised the point that the testimony of Gov. Peabody was the best evidence in this matter and at the same time announced that the defense proposed now to attack the validity of the per- my charge because of the fact, as e alleged, that it does not contain the allegation of an oath, which he declared was necessary before per- jury could be proven. He immediately began an argu- ment, but was stopped by the court and told to file his brief on the point. Gen. Bell was then questioned as to the habeas corpus proceedings, being repeatedly interrupted by Mr. Elliott, Angered by this, he arose and point- ing his finger at Elliott declared he would answer questions in his own way. Elliott replied hotly and for a time it looked as if they would come to blows. The court ordered the room cleared, however, and the hearing sroceeded behind elosed doors. ‘ Arrest of Alleged Smugglers, Philadelphia, Oct. 23—Henry Lied- ‘inger, storekeeper of the Hamburg American line steamship Assyria, was jareeeia by internal revenue officers ‘yesterday charged with smuggling.

American dis to ie Chitkoot and White Passes is Contirmed —We Get Twe Islands that Com- mand the Entrance to the Pogtiand (anal. London, Oct. 21.—The engrossed copy of the Alaskan award was signed yesterday. The Canadians declined to ign the award. Messrs. Aylesworth and Jette will submit the contrary opinions to the tribunal, so as to go officially on ree- ord, and while they declined to sign the award they Signed the maps agreed on by the majority. ‘The award relating to the Portland canal gives the United States two islands, Kannaghunut and Sitklan, commanding the entrance of the Port land channel and the ocean passage to Port Simpson and destroying the strategic value of Wales and Pearse islands, which are given to Canada, The mountain line adopted as the boundary lies so far from the coast @s to give the United States substan- tially all the territory in dispute. The line completely clears all the bays and inlets and means of access to the sea, giving the United States a complete land barrier between Canada and the sea, from the Portland canal to Mount St. Elias. Around the head of the Lynn canal the line fallows the water- shed, somewhat in accordance with the present provisional boundary. The Canadians feel very sore over the outcome. They almost openly ac: cuse Lord Alverstone of partisanship. When the latter presented them to King Edward at Buckingham palace the king endeavored vainly to induce Messrs. Jette and Aylesworth to say they were satisfied, or that they ac- cepted the situation, but the two Cau. adiuns declined to in any way expres acquiescence with this’ view. Qne of the Canadian commissioners afterwards said: “This award affects much more the relations between the Dominion and the mother country than people here seem to realize and almost marks the parting of the Ways, at least so far as leaving any such question for England to decide for us.” A Canadian who has been most in- timately and pyominently associated with the Alaskan case said: “This is the hardest blow the im- perial tie has ever received. The place Lord Alverstone filled was clear: ly that of agent for the British gov- ernment. It will be a shock to the Canadian people to know that, not- withstanding all the professions of friendship and sympathy, with solemn formalities, the international court has nly, been used for the purpose of handing over Canadian territory to the United States. Canada has been not only spontaneous but zealous in defense of British territory and has not hesitated to sacrifice blood and treasure in defense of ‘the mother- land, She must now face the fact that when imperial interest or friendships require it her territory may be hand- ed over without the slightest hesita- tion. This marks a most serious epoch in the relations between Canada and the mother country.” The diversions from the American claim as set out in the Hay-Paunce- fote modus vivendi are even more fa- yorable to the American case than the limitations set out in that document. One of the most important acquisi- tions is the confirmation of the Amer- fean title to the White Pass and Chil- koot Pass, the only practical available entrances to the Klondike country from the head of the inland water- way, in the former of which stands the Canadian custom house, which inust now give way to American con- trol. The northern boundary stands exactly as it was claimed by the Americans 30 years ago and as set out in the modus. On the western side there is a slight diversion of the boundary line to the east as made by the commis- sioners as compared with the modus, so as to make the southern terminus at Cape Fairweather. This involves, it. is believed, a loss of a few miles of territory from the extreme Ameri- can elaim, but it is said that this land is worthless for mining purposes and on the other hand the American pros- pectors have now confirmed beyond question their right to locate claims upon the supposed rich gold fields at the Klehini river. ‘To Ald Widows and Orphans. Philadelphia, Oct. 21.—It has been decided by the athletic association of the University of Pennsylvania to charge admission for a gortion of the seats at the army and navy football game to be played on Franklin field on November 28, Heretofore no ad- mission has been charged to see the game, the admission cards, about 21,- 000 iu number, being divided equally between the West Point and An- napolis academies and the University of Pennsylvania, which in turn distrib- uted them among friends of the insti- tutions, This year more than 6,000 eards allotted to Pennsylvania will be sold at probably $2 each, and the pro- ceeds turned over for the benefit of widows and orphans of soldiers and sailors.

Ralston, of Wash- ington, the umpire of the Italian com- mission at Caracas, Venezuela, has decided against Venezuela in the case of the govermment’s claim for the double payment of local taxes, which decision applies in principle to the at- tempts now being made by the Vene- guelan government to collect a sec- on® payment of taxes on goods im- ported at Ciudad Bolivar, under the Fecent revolutionary government at that port. The umpire holds that tax- payers were protected by the pay- ment to the de facto officers. A Suit for $1,900,000. Minneapolis, Minn., Oct. 21.—A suit in which judgment is asked.in the sum of $1,900,000 was begun yesterday in the district court of Hennepin county by four stockholders in the Star Petroleum Co., to restrain the officers of the company from remov- ing the books of the concern to ‘Texas, at the behest of W. E. Brice of Mason City, Ia. The suit is to compel the officers to account for their ac- tions and it is alleged that the de- fendants are about to come into pos- session of $25,000, the proceeds of @ sale, and that this sum is in danger of being wrongfully converted. THE AX FALLS. Four Men Lose Office as a Henult of Mr. Bristow’s Report of Irreguiark thes in Peatofice Department. Washington, Oct, 22.—Postmaster Ueneral Payne on Wednesday re- nioved from oflice Michael W. Louis, superintendent of supplies of tlie postoffice department; Louis Kemp- ner, chief of the registry division of the third assistant postmaster gen- eral's office, and C. B. Terry, a $900 ae in the postoffite department, and directed the postmaster at New York to remove Otto Weiss, a clerk. These removals are the first result of Fourth Assistant Postmaster Gen- eral Bristow’s report on the irregu- larities in the postoflice department. The postmaster general made an official announcement of his action as follows: “Michael W. Louis has been re- moved from the office of superin- tendent of the division of supplies be- cause the recent investigation shows that he influenced the awarding of contracts for supplies to favored bid- ders; that he has beea extravagant and ‘was neglectful in the adminis- tration of his office; and that he has paid excessive prices for supplies to favored contractors. “Louis Kempner, superintendent, registry system, has been removed for incompetent and negligent admin- istration; for wasteful and reckless extravagance in sending expensive manifold registration books to a@ Jarge number of small fourth class postofiices; and for violating the rev- enue laws by a system of petty smug- gling. “C, RB. Terry, a clerk in the division of supplies, has been removed for making false affidavits; attempting to obtain money from clerks under the guise that he could influence their promotions, and general inefficiency.” The postmaster general also stated that the postmaster at New York hax been directed to remove Otto Weis, a clerk in the New York postoffice, for collecting money from clerks to in- fluence legislation and to procure pro- motions. In reply to questions, Mr. Payne said the ‘discharges were the result of disclosures mude by the Bristow Nemes HE PLEADED GUILTY. A Saloonkeeper Says He Committed Perjury White Testifying tor Sam | RParka, New York, Oct. 22.—Bernard Lynch, the saloonkeeper who was one of the witnesses for the defense in the trial of Sam Parks, the labor leader, for extortion, on Wednesday pleaded guilty of perjury and was remanded until Friday for sentence. Lynch was indicted for perjury along with Henry Farley and Tim- othy McCarthy after the trial of Parks for extortion, which resulted in the conviction of the labor lead- er. The extortion trial grew out of the charges of Joshua Plenty, a con- tractor, who said that he paid $200 to Parks in Lynch's saloon to call off a strike at the Hamburg-American line pier. Parks’ witnesses swore to an alibi for Parks and said that they did not see him in the saloon on the day it was alleged that he: received ‘the money. Parks, who was also indicted on a charge of perjury, was to have ap- peared before Judge Foster yester- day. When up to noon he had not ap- peared Assistant District Attorney Randall asked the latter's counsel, James W. Osborne, if he would pro- duce Parks in court. Mr. Osborne re- plied that he would make no prom- ises in the matter. Mr. Randall then asked Inspector McClusky to assign detectives to look for Parks, who ix now at liberty under $18.000 bail. "The Missourt Shows Great Speed. Boston, Oct. 22—The new battle- ship Missouri yesterday proved her- self the queen of the seas in her class in a speed trial trip over the Cape Ann course with weather conditions of a considerably handicapping na- ture. Steaming over a course of 33 nautical miles and return, the battle- ship made an average speed of 18.05 knots per hour, which, with tidal cor- rections greatly in her favor, it is be- lieved, will advance it to 18.22 knots, @ new world’s record for battleships. ‘Phe battleship at one time attained a speed of 18,7 knots per hour. The contract requirements call for 18 knots. Decided Against Miller. Washington, Oct. 22.—Comptroller of the Treasury Tracewell gave an ad- verse opinion yesterday in the appeal taken by W. A. Miller, assistant fore- man of the government printing office bindery, from the action of the au- ditor for the state and other depart- ments, in disallowing the claim put in by him for compensation for the 63 days of his suspension and dis- missal from the government printing office. ‘The comptroller holds that Miller is not an officer, but an em- ploye subject to dismissal at the pleasure of the public printer, and that he cannot be paid for work not performed.

Maitre Labori, the noted French advo- cate who defengal the Humberts, is not remarkable in Faris so much for the elo- quence as for tne neatness and the polish of his speeches. An American journalist heard Labori in court one day. He says the advocate’s address was full of grace, wit, tenderness. He quotes a passage relating to old age wherein Labori, with a smile, said: “Old age—we shall none of us quite wn- derstand that until we have attained to it for no one of us, here, is old. But the other day I visited my uncle, a very aged man, ~ “What iv it like, uncle,’ I said, ‘to be old?” “And my uncle answered: “Tt is like thia: When one ix young, one’s polite attentions to women are taken for declarations of love; but when one is old, one’s declarations of love are taken for polite attentions.’ ” Tor « Red Back Sabra, Montana, Oct. 19th.—A great many men in this neighborhood used to complain of pains in the back, but now scarcely one can be found who has any such trouble.

Iwish such women knew the value of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. It is a remarkable medicine, different in action from any Lever knew and thoroughly reliable. “T have seen eases where women doctored for years without perma- nent benefit, who were cured in less than three months after taking your Vegetable Compound, while others who were chronic and incurable came out cared DBE and in perfect health after a thorough treatment with this medicine. I have never used it myself without gaining great benefit.

Lydia E, Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound at once removes such troubles. The experience and testimony of some of the most noted ‘women of America go to prove, beyond a question, that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound will correct all such trouble at once by removing the cause and restoring the organs to a healthy and normal condition.
