THE TWENTY-SECOND YEAR. NO. 51. THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY TWO FORMS OF THE LONG, LOOSE COAT. The smart coat of the day is the white French serge that reaches to the hem of the gown. It may be in dead white or in cream. Serge is the thing. It is not bad economy to indulge in one of these wraps, for they are most charming for summer, and really could be made to do good service for the evening wrap in winter, changed a bit by the addition of heavy cord and lace. They clean beautifully. They are made semi-fitting and double-breasted, lined with China silk, and some have big pockets, some a strap or two at the back. They look suitable for outing wear; they may be worn any time of the day or evening. A close second to the coat of white serge is the one made of linen crash, also long. It is trimmed with braid, either simply or elaborately, and may be all white or have a touch of color in cuffs and collar. Colored velvet collars and cuffs are pretty on the serge coats, fashioned on the box order, and we have in mind a pretty one, creamy in tone, with green velvet to set it off. This will be exceptionally pretty in the early days of fall, when green, for some reason or other is apt to be so pleasing. Hats of black and w ago were very elega the millimeters will recess the coming seas. Last year broadlead tern of the winter take its place this year, commodifying material so easily. It will be the black and white. The pleated skirt death, and we are skirt is pushing it latter is graceful and hangs very pretty, circular skirt are she one with a seam in other in the middle the skirt circular on front gore. We no summer dresses may flounce, but these a to tall women. Sleeves for fall suits, on the leg-of-sleeve order. For again promised the criers are to display deep fur cuffs to we sleeve when cold day return to the wrist grandmothers. For Black silk coats, of supple faille and soft peau de sole, made with basques, have met with some favor, and promise to be a feature of fall styles. It is a coat that can be worn with so many skirts, and there is a strong tendency towards the purchase of the separate skirt nowadays. The black wrap looks well with a black and white check skirt, with one of black silk, with summary dresses. Some colored silk wraps are seen, one of very good style was noticed, a faille coat worn with a Henrietta skirt of electric blue, the latter a shade darker than the coat. Black and white promises to be a fashion this year affected by those who hold themselves exclusive, and in one costume will be seen the different degrees of black given by wool, silk and velvet. The white touch employed will be the sparing use of rare lace. The Simple Summer Frock It is a growing fad with rich ladies this season to throw off in their country costuming all advertisement of wealth, all display. Glimpses as they drive forth from their beautiful country homes, flash by in their automobiles, show frocks marked by sweet simplicity. In winter, at opera and ball they can wear their satins and chions. NO FUSS ABOUT THIS COSTUME. but in summer they play, at least in the morning, at the simple life. Many a grand dame these days is appearing in a print frock that may have cost a dime a yard, a dress unadorned with lace or frills. How long this wholesome fashion is to last it is hard to tell, but it has about it, refreshing novelty. We feel moved to say, "I told you so," for we have always held it possible 18 Hats of black and white a few years ago were very elegant, and doubles the milliners will repeat those successes the coming season. Last year broadcloth was the material of the winter; hemiretta may take its place this year, and a very accommodating material this is; drapes so easily. It will be especially good in the black and white combination. The pleated skirt has been done to death, and we are glad the circular skirt is pushing it to the wall. The latter is graceful and, when we'll make, hangs very prettily. Two styles of circular skirt are shown; the two-piece one with a seam in the back and another in the middle of the front, and the skirt circular on the sides with a front gore. We notice a few good summer dresses made with the triple flounce, but these are becoming only to tall women. Sleeves for fall will be, for tailored suits, on the leg-of-mutton or the coattree order. For afternoons we are again promised the elbow sleeve. Furriers are to display before so very long deep fur cuffs to wear with the short sleeve when cold days are upon us, a return to the wristlets worn by our grandmothers. For evening wear, ballroom occasions, the sleeve may be but a mere strap. We doubt if there is much change from the sleeve fashions obtaining last year. For wear with thin dresses the underslip is a necessity, and now batiste is the material preferred to silk for these garments on which depend much of the set of the outer dress. An effective costume for a woman with gray hair is a black swiss dotted with white and worn over a slip of violet batiste. And, by the way, black swiss dotted with white makes up very charmingly, and is not so commonly used as to be over-popular. With such a dress velvet ribbon, either white or black, would be pretty to use for belt and with the stock. Velvet ribbons will be much seen the coming season. We are glad to chronicle the return of this pretty trimming. for a woman to be acceptably gowned in summer at small money outlay. Use good patterns, get becoming colors that will not fade at the first washing, and with care concerning accessories you may dress well and inexpensively some four months of the year. Belts of the material of the dress are popular and cheap; stocks may be made of a scrap of insertion edged with a scrap of lace; a fluffy becoming veil matching the color of the print dress may be purchased for a half dollar or so. White canvas shoes are sold now at a reduction, and an shoes are very good with the light dresses worn of a morning. White duck hats, if clean, are very pretty and summery, and come in a variety of shapes, one surely can find a becoming style. They add to the desired simplicity, perhaps, more, than the lingerie hat. For afternoon wear, the latter is very attractive, and one can buy a pattern and at home easily copy those sold at the milliners at a fancy price. They are trimmed with a little ribbon, are never fussy. A plain bolero can be transformed into a dressy affair by edging sleeves, collar and bottom of coat with narrow double frills of lace. These come ready-made, and though not very fine, they are effective and not cost much. Of course the frills can be made by oneself of fine material at less than the stores charge; but it takes time, and time seems the most precious thing in these days of strenuous living, of days surely not so long as they used to be. The little line boleros need not be trimmed at all, unless with flat white braid or straps of white linen. ELLEN OSMOND In Union There is Strength. CLEVELAND O., SATURDAY, JULY 22, 1905. Is This Splendid Address to the Country, of the New National Organization, Noted In The Gazette Last Week—Some of Our Duties as Well as Some of Our Desires—Discrimination, Etc. Buffalo, N. Y. The national conference of last week resulted in a national organization called "The Niagara Movement," with a general secretary, a general treasurer, and an executive committee, composed of state secretaries, who are in turn the heads of state committees. Various lines of work for the welfare of our people were mapped out and national committees were selected for each line of endeavor. A short platform was adopted espousing the principles of equal education, still economic and political opportunities and rights, and advocating freedom of criticism, opposition to a subsidized race press, and a united effort to realize these ideals under a wise, pure and courageous leadership. The conference adopted the following address to the country: The members of the conference known as the Niagara Movement, assembled in annual meeting at Buffalo July 11th, 12th and 13th, 1905, congratulate the Negro Americans or certain undoubted evidences of progress in last decade, particularly the increase of intelligence, the buying of property, the checking of crime the rupture in home life, the advance in literature and art, the demonstration of constructive and executive ability in the conduct of great religious, economic and educational institutions. At the same time, we believe that this class of American citizens should protest emphatically and continually against the curtailment of their political rights. We believe in manhood bourdrage; we believe that no man is so good, intelligent or wealthy as to be entrusted wholly with the welfare of his neighbor. We believe also in protest against the curtailment of our civil rights. All American citizens have the right to equal treatment in places of public entertainment according to their behavior and deserts. We especially complain against the denial of equal opportunities to us in economic life; in the rural districts of the south this amounts to peonage and virtual slavery; all over the south it tends to crush labor and small business enterprises; and everywhere American prejudice, helped often by iniquitous laws, is making it more difficult for Negro-Americans to carn a decent living. Common school education should be free to all American children and compulsory. High school training should be adequately provided for all, and college training should be the monopoly of no class or race in any section of our common country. We believe that in defense of its own institutions, the United States should aid common school education, particularly in the south, and we especially recommend concerted agitation to the teaching of foreign students in public high school facilities in the south, where the Negro-Americans are almost wholly without such provisions. We favor well-equipped trade and technical schools for the training of artisans, and the need of adequate and liberal endowment for a few institutions of higher education must be patent to sincere well-wishers of the race. We demand upright judges in courts, juries selected without discrimination on account of color and the same measure of punishment, and the same efforts at reformation for black as for white offenders. We demand that junior schools for dependent children, juvenile reformaries for delinquents, and the abolition of the dehumanizing convict-lease system. We note with alarm the evident retrogression in this land, of sound public opinion on the subject of manhood rights, republican government and human brotherhood, and we pray God that this nation will not degenerate into a mob of boasters and oppressors, but rather will return to the faith of the fathers, that all men were created free and equal, with certain unalienable rights. We plead for health—for an opportunity to live in decent houses and localities, for a chance to rear our children in physical and moral cleanliness. We hold up for public execution the conduct of two opposite classes of men: the practice among employers of importing ignorant Negro-American laborers in emergencies, and then affording them neither protection nor permanent employment; and the practice of labor unions of proscribing and boycotting and oppressing thousands of their fellow-tellers, simply because they are black. These methods have accentuated and will accentuate the war of labor and capital, and they are disgraceful to both sides. We refuse to allow the impression to remain that the Negro-American assents to inferiority, is submissive under oppression and apologetic before results. Through helplessness may human beings prove of the prest of ten million Americans, must never cease to assail the ears of their fellows, so long as America is unjust. Any discrimination based simply on race or color is barbarous, we care not how hallowed it be by custom, expediency, or prejudice. Differences made on account of ignorance, immorality, poverty or disease may be legitimate methods of reform, and against them we have no word. GAZETTE. protest; but discriminations based simply and solely on physical peculiarities, place of birth, color or skin, are relics of that unreasoning human savagery of which the world is and ought to be thoroughly ashamed. We protest against the Jim-Crow car, since its effect is and must be to make us pay first-class fare for third-class accommodations, render us open to insults and discomfort and to cruelly wantonly our manhood, womanhood and self-respect. We regret that this nation has never seen fit adequately to reward the black soldiers who in its five wars, have defended their country with their blood, and yet have been systematically denied the promotions which their abilities deserve. And we regard as unjust, the exclusion of black boys from the military and navy training schools. We urge upon congress the enactment of appropriate legislation for securing the proper enforcement of those articles of freedom, the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendments of the constitution of the United States. We urge the monstrous doctrine that the oppressor should be the sole authority as to the rights of the oppressed. The Negro race in America stolen, ravished and degraded, struggling up through difficulties and oppression, needs sympathy and receives criticism; needs help and is given hindrance, needs protection and is given mob-violence, needs justice and is given charity, needs leadership and is given cowardice and apology, needs bread and is given a stone. This nation will never stand justified before God until these things are changed. Especially are we surprised and astonished at the recent attitude of the church of Christ—on the increase of a desire to bow to racial prejudice, to narrow the bounds of human brotherhood, and to segregate black men in some outer sanctuary. This is wrong, unchristian and disgraceful to the twentieth century civilization. Of the above advantages we do not hesitate to complain, and to complain loudly and insistently. To ignore, overlook, or apologize for these wrongs is to prove Persistent, many agitation is the way to liberty, and toward this goal the Niagara movement has been asked and asks the cooperation of all men of all races. At the same time we want to acknowledge with deep thankfulness the help of our fellowmen from the abolitionist down to those who today still stand for equal opportunity and who have given and still give of their wealth and of their poverty for our advancement. And while we are demanding, and ought to demand, and will continue to demand the rights enumerated above, God forbid that we should ever forget to urge corresponding duties upon our people: The duty to vote. The duty to respect the rights of others. The duty to work. The duty to obey the laws. The duty to be clean and orderly. The duty to send our children to school. The duty to respect ourselves, even as we respect others. This statement, complaint and prayer we submit to the American people, and to Almighty God, Signed by W. E. B. DuBois, Georgia. Wm H.

Cleveland, Saturday July 22, 1905. 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. Those alleged Chicago and New York race riots or rather' butcheries, are most unfortunate indeed from every viewpoint. Those of the past week were especially brutal. The truth will out before long. That is certainly a fine address to the country issued by the "Niagara Movement" and published on our first page today. Do not fail to read it carefully, thoughtfully. It will pay you to do so. The southern sympathy and prejudiced associated press liar got busy early in the month at Mountclair, N. J., announcing that a Volunteer Hose Co. had refused to march in a parade because of a rumor that Booker T. Washington was to lead it. How silly? Contemptible business that many callow daily "newspapermen" (white) are continually indulging in throughout the north, these days. The fact that Williams & Walker the greatest black face comedians on the stage in any country, received $14,000 a piece for their last season's work, and that each of their proceeds exceeds the salary of Chiel Justice Fuller and his associate justices of the United States supreme court who receive $13,000 and $12,500 respectively, moves the Buffalo New York News of July 15 to refer to Williams & Walker in a very prejudiced and derisive way as "coon comedians." This is an exhibition of "sour grapes" and prejudice that even so evidently a coarse person as its writer, ought to be ashamed to exhibit so publicly. And there are others, we are sorry to say, connected with leading daily newspapers throughout the north. Many of them are from the south. All ought to be there. They are of the Tillman-Vardaman breed of prejudiced cattle. The information as to Williams & Walker's last year's receipts was disclosed as a result of the legal battle being waged over them in New York city by Hurtig & Seaman, their old managers on the one side, and Dockstader, who seeks to become their manager, on the other. BIDDING FOR THE PRESIDENCY. The Washington correspondent of the New York Evening Post says: "No account of the movement of political opinion in this capital would be complete which failed to note the increasing strength of Secretary Taft as a presidential possibility. But the weakness of his cause is noted where the likelihood is strong, that Senator Foraker would be Ohio's logical candidate and that without his own state's support, Taft would lack backing with which to go before the country." No man in the north and northwest has held greater prominence within recent years than Senator Foraker. His stance and uncompromising attitude upon all questions of a national character and his acknowledged leadership easily make him the choice as the people's candidate. In state and nation his strength is felt, his influence is marked, and a strong man is needed as an emphasis of republican principles Mr. Taft may be the choice of the administration or he may be the candidate of a powerful clique, but in the face of present conditions and the wide popularity already gained by Senator Foraker, it becomes a question in what way the friends of Secretary Taft shall overcome this growing force. True enough, the secretary may calculate on having something of a delegation from the south owing to the fact that his recent utterances have been more in accord with the ideas of southern "Lilly-white" republicans. The secretary has given echo to the views of the democratic governor of the Phillippines, Luke E. Wright, of Tennessee, and he has had no scruples in advancing opinions touching the race question which are so currently maintained by democratic leaders of the south. Senator Foraker stands as an impregnable and solid phalanx against any measure or proposition that is anti-republican or anti-national. His whole life-service and doctrine have long embodied the cardinal principles of constitutional freedom and the ideas of equal government to the people and his great record in large conventional bodies will challenge the wisdom of the ablest and best statement of our time. Each year but adds in- creasing lustre to his grand and ennobling manhood, and no man in the rations' senate fills his place with greater service and more becoming acceptability. Ohio is never lacking in great and available men and when the time comes and the people shall demand a choice, the name of Taft, Root, Beveridge, and Bonaparte may loom out in glorious splendor, but most prominent among them all will be remembered the name most dear to the hearts of all true republicans—Joseph Benson Foraker, the trusted friend of the republic. CANNOT USE THEIR EDUCATION. Secretary of war. Wm. H. Taft, seems to have his "eye on the gun" and is saying some pretty smart things in the way of fixing up fences and galinging popularity with the masses. When a man goes after a thing, his going depends greatly on how he gets it. Without question, the presidential bee is buzzing in the hat of the distinguished secretary of war and it is his prerogative to aspire to any honors within the gifts of the American people. The secretary of war is making many speeches just now which in many respects are bringing him into growing favor with an element not easily to be despised. In short, Mr. Taft has long since established for himself a reputation that is both national and enviable. He is a strong man and is admitted to be a favorite with the people. But is he free from the touch of demagogue? In his recent opening speech before the Miami university, Ohio, he touched on the racial question of the south and said: "A most encouraging feature of the present increase of wealth is that a large proportion of this increase has been in the South, a part of our country which hithertofore has been largely agricultural and poor. The change in material conditions in spite of the political difficulties that are certainly there, is creating a better state of things with reference to the racial question. The work of Booker T. Washington in teaching his people how to use tools, instead of giving them a superficial education, which they cannot use, adds to the industrial demand for skilled labor." Here it is just that we should be as plain as Mr. Taft has spoken, touching the education of the Negro. It is hardly fair, and certainly not true for the secretary of war to say that all the university education acquired by Afro-Americans is superficial. If he did not mean to declare as much, yet he has so expressed himself. But the motive prompting the affirmation is not based upon facts. It is well enough for Afro-Americans to be taught the use of tools. But to acquire such a knowledge solely and to the exclusion of an intellectual or a literary education would be contrary to the very means designed to subserve the great ends of life. We can not ignore the demands most binding upon every member of the human family to educate and develop the powers of the mind to their utmost capacity. The best and ablest minds of the country acknowledge the need and the efficiency of thoroughness in learning, and whatever conserves the best interest of one people, all things be equal, to prove alike beneficial to all. The "colored people" as citizens of a common country are beneficiary to all the privileges of the free school system as well as of our American colleges. Then why not encourage them to avail themselves of an offering so beneficial and helpful in the time of their greatest need. To-day the race needs to be elevated and fortified against those evils which rise as a mighty bulwark to hamper and embarrass them in their struggle to noble and better life. To learn the use of tools and to become skilled as workmen, may relieve and help the race, and may afford them many accruing advantages, but skilled industry will never lift the Negro to an equal plane of learning with the rest of mankind. We offer no objection to any race becoming skilled in labor. But we insist that the work of human education for all the races, for the black man as well as the white man, must go on despite the uncertain clamor for industrial training. We depricate the idea of a superficial education in any department of life, we do not ask for surface knowledge in any branch of learning, and we spurn the imputation of Secretary of War Wm. H. Taft, that the education of the Negro is superficial. Proficiency in rudimental knowledge, in the arts and sciences, in the languages is the demand upon the race. We appreciate this fact and it has been amply and truthfully sustained in the first colleges of the land by competition and prize taking. To acquire an education which we can not use, says the secretary of war. Ah! but the premise is illogical, for no man has ever possessed a knowledge which he could not apply. The Afro-American may not find equal opportunity for applying his knowledge, but the demand upon him remains only the greater, because each race bears a like responsibility before the world and is in duty bound called to take the best possible position in rendering due service to mankind. God offers no second-hand place to any of his people. The door of nature's vast storehouse stands open to all and he will best unfold her mysteries and disclose her hidden treasures becomes a benefactor to mankind. Into this field thousands of inquiring minds of the race are engaged in competition. Let the contest go on. It is a principle of human nature, that all men aspire to grander life and it must be remembered that all greatness lies in the intellect. Education develops thought and thought is greater than muscle. "In the world there is nothing great but man, and in man there is nothing great but mind." The world sustains the theory that if the races shall ever rise to a higher plane, they must educate. With THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JULY 22, 1905. out education all hope is lost.

Bleeding from a dozen gaping knife wounds in his stomach and abdomen William Walker, No. 528 St. Clair street, walked two blocks to his home Sunday afternoon before he fell exhausted from loss of blood. He was injured in a fight over a crap game with John Hartman of No. 9 South alley. Hartman was also badly cut. Both men were removed to Lakeside hospital in Hogan & Co.'s ambulance. Walker will probably die from his wounds, while Hartman has a fighting chance for his life. Hartman is a teamster and single. He boarded at No. 9 South alley. He is 30 years of age. Walker is 29 years old and married. At the national convention, known as the "Niagara Movement," which convened last week Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday in Buffalo, and at Port Erie Beach, Ontario, Canada, the editor of The Gazette, in addition to an address Thursday evening on "Needed Legislation in Congress." served on two committees namely, the "Press and Public Opinion" and "Needs and Conditions." It was the greatest gathering of the ablest and most highly educated Afro-Americans ever held in this section of the country. It was interesting indeed to simply read the list of names of those in attendance upon the conference published in our last issue. Gertie Jones, of No. 180 Woodland avenue, went to the Central police station Saturday afternoon, to have another woman arrested for cutting her. Instead, she herself was locked up on the charge of cutting to kill Queen Jorgan, who lived at the corner of Woodland avenue and Jackson street. She is in St. Vincent's hospital with many deep wounds about the head and chest, which the doctors say are serious. The two women, it is claimed, quarreled, and then fought with razors, after which the Jones woman went to Huron Street hospital to have wounds about her head, hands and arms dressed. The Jorgan woman was found lying on the floor of her home by neighbors. When the Jones woman went to the police station to tell of the fight, she was arrested. The local committee, preparing for the convention of Ohio district grand lodge and district Household of Ruth, desire to request through The Gazette that members and friends of the order that life and living along Central avenue and those side streets running into Central avenue from Erie to Forest streets hang out their flags and bunting and other emblems indicative of welcome to the visiting Odd Fellows. The following official program is prepared for the week: Monday, July 31, the delegates will be received at 448 Central avenue and assigned to their quarters. Evening, public prize promenade at Woodliff hall. Tuesday at 10 a.m., August 1, opening exercises at the New Antoch Baptist church, Central avenue, opposite Sked street. The public is invited. The grand officers will be escorted to the church by Cleveland Patriarchie No. 8. At the conclusion of the exercises the two branches will go into secret sessions. In the afternoon the delegates and friends are invited to the house, Lake Erie, Household of Ruth, No. 1375, will give a free public reception at 8 p.m., to the delegates and friends at Woodliff hall. Wednesday evening, August 2, the general committee will give an entertainment at Woodliff hall. A delightful program will be rendered, fine talent having been secured for the occasion. (See official program for particulars). Thursday, August 5, being the last day of the convention, there will be a public street parade in the afternoon, followed by Patriarchial prize drills. The whole to be concluded with a grand banquet at Woodliff hall in the evening. LEGAL NOTICE.
