THE EXQUISITE TOILETS The tailor is looking forward to a rich harvest. All the coats and skirts, and these represent the style of gown which prevails ubiquitously, show the marks of his handwork, and as I predicted some time ago, every coat is long and well below the hips, some reaching to the knees, while others are even longer. Waistcoats made separately are having some consideration, and these are not always sleeveless, as is the habit of waistcoats! Every material is used to make them, satin being of paramount importance in the scheme. A dark green velvet coat and skirt owe much to the waistcoat of waterblue velvet, and a no less successful combination is a purple cloth dress with a waistcoat of peach colored velvet. Some of the long straight coats exhibit sleeves of a different material, the waistcoat being made to match these, and a coat of dark brown velvet looks extremely smart with satin sleeves and vest, the Indispensable braid binding putting in its appearance round armholes and hems. This binding of braid is the rule, in silk for the most part, and it is found decorating alike the costume of cloth and the costume of velvet, which owns its cheaper, though scarcely less effective, rival in the costume of velveten. Many of the velvets have a microiris surface, a virtue the manufacturers have also accorded to the velveteen, which may boast of one decided novelty, stripes of equal sizes about one-third of an inch in breadth. This is to be seen in every possible combination of dark colors, the most popular of all the velveteens being black and brown stripes and black and molegray stripes, and these make the smartest costumes bound with silken braid, fashioned in the simplest style, with small sleeves reaching to the wrists, and a step-collar and rounded ends to the cutaway front. Sometimes these coats are fitted with cloth waistcoats of some contrasting color, buff for choice, and under all circumstances the small V left at the neck by the cutting of the collar is filled in with a jabot cavat of hem-stitched lawn depending from a collar band, and shaped higher at the back than in the front, with a little goffered frill outlining the chin. Frilling, by the way, is a revival we have not welcomed for about 15 years, when no costume for morning or afternoon wear was complete without a frilling round the neck and sleeve. This, however, was wont to be made of lise. Before the days when chiffon ousted it from the position of prime fave amongst diaphanous fabrics, the making of lise frilling was quite an important industry, and hundreds of afferent patterns were at our disposal. The little rolled frilling, such as generally associate with the widow's cap, is worn now round the neck and sleeves of afternoon gowns, and other frillings show three rows of very tiny kiltings very closely stitched together. The main attraction of this new order is that it compels the collarband to be shaped accurately to the line of the neck, extending higher at the back than the front, and forming a sort of frame to the face eminently becoming and attractive, and specially so to the bell-shaped hat. Somehow this bell-shaped hat seems to need some such aid for its best conduct. The bell-shaped hat makes a further bold bld for success in beaver, felt, velvet and silk. The latest idea is to line the inside brim with a contrasting color, white, rose-pink, and pale blue all being used for such purposes in hats of brown or mole gray, or purple, while for further trimming there is a large loose crown of silk tied on one side, or a crown covered In Union There is Strength. with a mass of feathers, or a crown formed entirely of bows. It is rumored that skunk is to be amongst the furs of our fashionable fancy, whilst there is some talk of flat boas made of sealskin, lined with ermine, sharing our regard with the sable tie. And now a word concerning the costumes displayed in the illustration at the head of our letter. The first is a dress of grace and beauty, in the glorious shade of cerise, its cleverly combined fabrics being chiffon, fillet Idalia Cress BOLERO OF IRISH LACE BOLERO OF IRISH LACE. There is a Sash of Black Satin tied at the back in a bow a La Japanise. net, and appliques of cloth with borderings of soft satin. A softening touch of white comes in the finely tucked chiffon and net of the chemisette and undersleeves, and the huge black hat, crowned by many sweeping ostrich feathers, and having its brim lined with cerise satin, is a fitting accompaniment of the toilet. The second dress is of soft gray cloth, the corsage arranged with a square effect in front and becoming cross-over folds at the back, all edged with silken goblettes. A chemisette of tucked white net and lace with a diminutive black bow tie comes above a vest of tawny orange velvet embroidered in greens and gold; while the hat is of the soft gray with quills curving all over the crown, and a brim lining of black satin. What a Woman Did. There is much to be said against the New York cabby, but there are frequent occasions when one is really deserving of sympathy. The other day a cabby drove a well-dressed and refined-looking woman to a Broadway restaurant where she ordered an expensive lunch and then told the waiter that she had lost her purse, but that her cab was waiting, and if he would send a boy with her she would go home for the money. The boy entered the cab with her, and she directed the cabby to drive to a Sixth avenue department store. When they arrived she left the boy in the cab, entred the store to make an imaginary purchase and went out at the opposite entrance. In the hope of getting information about his departed fare, cabby drove back to the restaurant, accompanied by the brass-buttoned boy, whom he blackguarded all the way for letting the man escape. The restaurant people discharged the lad for the same reason, and the driver eried quits. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1907. MRS. TERRELL RAPSTHE SOUTH Tcils Missionary Association Negro Has Been Stunted and Villified. Mrs. Mary Church Terrell Asserts Our Race Has Been Rendered Helpless at Home and Nearly Friendless Elsewhere by "Hands Off" Policy—President Bradford Urges Treating Negro Like a Man. Solely declaring that the south had poisoned the mind of the north against the Negro, Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, of Washington, D. C., one of our most prominent women, asserted before the American Missionary association Monday that a crisis is at hand in the history of our race in America. In order to preserve peace, the north, she said, has kept hands off since the civil war. This has given the south just that opportunity which it desired to dominate and restrict the development of the Negro and at the same time to safeguard his result has been, she said, that he is helpless at home and almost friendless elsewhere. Only renewed interference on the part of the north, by missionaries and by government action, she concluded, could save the Negro from hopeless degradation. This note of protest against the south's treatment of the Negro has been the entire morning session of the association. It is chiefly significant as coming from a body which voices the opinions of 750,000 Congregationalists. President A. H. Bradford, of New Jersey, declared in strong language that the country has reached the parting of the ways and must decide now for either the African-American to be treated as a man or as a brute. Says South Is Unfair. Justice D. J. Brewer, of the supreme court of the United States, was in the chair when Mrs. Terrell delivered her speech. She was frequently interrupted by audials. "The breech between the north and the south has practically healed," declared Mrs. Terrell. "Northern men hold large commercial interests in the south. Besides, so irritably has the colored man for years that it is the colored man's best defenderstands him better than anybody else in the world, so belligerently has it shouted that it will brook interference in the treatment accorded him from nobody on earth, that the north, generally speaking, has been persuaded for the sake of peace to keep apel and the colored man by a malicious use of epithets, such as the scrow-crow of social equality, the bugaboo of Negro domination and others which mislead and poison the public mind; by a cruel and insulting respect to evidence of his marvelous advancement along all lines, but with a convenient credulity with respect to every report or tradition which can be used to prove his inferiority and deprivacy, the south has almost succeeded in persuading the whole world to abandon the sympathy and brute. The rapidity with which the south has poisoned the mind of the north against the colored man and has actually alienated the sympathy and support of thousands who were formerly our good friends is a splendid tribute to the persuasiveness, the power of the south, the persistence and the power of the south, which assembles nothing so much as a skillful trick of legenddomain. North Is Becoming Prejudiced North is Becoming Prejudiced. "And so it has happened for the last twenty or thirty years that the title of the best man has been steadily setting against the man in the inerm, in spite of everything which he himself or his good white friends could possibly do. Those who were once our strongest advocates now have almost nothing to say in favor or to our credit. (Senator Foraker, our great and good friend, alone excepted.) In many instances our our champions cheerfully conceded that while the colored man could perfect and has many glaring defenses his progress along all lines, intellectual, moral, financial and industrial, has transcended the expectations of his most sanguine friends. Nevertheless, the fact remains that the interest once manifested in the colored man by the north is growing painfully less — and sometimes when I stumble into the slough of despond, I am sorry to say, I fear it is reaching the point as fast as it can. In certain sections of our great country few are more unpopular than our good GAZETTE. white friends who insist upon pleading for Foraker, for instance.) I repeat, therefore, in the present recrudescence of feeling against the colored man it requires unusual courage for white people who are interested in us and wish to help us to work in our behalf. For this very reason never before in the history of this country has there been a more immediate and pressing need of the personal service of men and women willing to work for the enlightenment and elevation of a people despised, handicapped and weak." President Bradford declared at the beginning of his annual message that if it contained any radicalism the audience might attribute it to his ancestry, as he was the son of an abolitionist, and his earliest recollections were of the underground railway. "Our fathers never asked what man was born, or as to the color of his skin, but only as to the greatness of his need," said he. "The deeper the degradation, the more imperative was the call to service. They did not think that God made a mistake when he created some men black. They revered the image of God whether it was in ivory or ebony. Those men may have been the eyes of the world, but they were hores in the service of their fellowmen. Two courses are before us. We may make the colored people realize that they are inferior, fit only for mental occupations, condemn them to "Jim Crow" cars, and the back doors of railway stations and restaurants, or we may treat them like men with human possibilities; we may recognize worth whenever it is found; we may open opportunities for which they are fitted, and make them know that all who live righteous, thoughtful, aspiring lives will be given the rights and privileges of manhood. If the first course is followed the colored race may be kept down by force of numbers, but the oppressing race will never have peace. Ten million people smarting under a sense of injustice would be an awful drag on the progress of any nation. If the other course is followed this reason no more grateful and loyal citizens, and in time of peril no soldiers who will fight more brave or die who gladly in its defense than those whom it has not only freed from physical slavery, but lifted into the liberty of the children of God." Justice Brewer made a strong defense of the race, declaring that in the struggle which is sure to come between Americanism and anarchy the nation may find its greatest support in the Afro-American. In the civil war, when the union was soley tried, the veto proved himself a man of rare fidelity. There is the best reason Continued on Second Page. REALLY INFAMOUS IS THE SCHEME TO DEFEAT SEN- ATOR FORAKER. The Duty of Every Loyal Cleveland Afro-American Is to Scratch His Name From the Republi- Special to The Gazette Washington, D. C.—If I understand the situation in the Cleveland mayoralty fight, any Afro-American who support Mr. Burton is, to say the least, disloyal. There are no conditions, at this writing, under which an Afro-American can support him and look his fellow man in the eye and say he is duty as a member of our race. So, if he is not a member of our race, Foraker, and if I had never seen him, I should take the same stand that I assume now—his loyal supporter. If he had never done anything before, if he never does anything in the future, his stand for our Brownsville soldiers ought to place his name on the list of those whose names we invoke when we speak of our trust and best friends. Is there another such republican, of the old school or any other school, of the public life to hear him? Is he unaware to read his speech delivered in Tennessee see some months ago? Have you read his speeches defending our soldiers? Senator Foraker is a national character. He belongs to us all. His welfare is our waffare; his defeat, ours. With every loyal member of the race in Cleveland, or out of it, I am a volunteer under his banner. I go with it to victory or defeat. There is not an Afro-American, in whose vault is loyal to Senator Foraker and ready with his vote to strike down any enemy like Theodore E. Burton who dares to oppose him. What has Mr. Burton ever done for the Afro-American? Whose scheme is he trying to aid? Can any intelligent man truthfully say that he does not know? Does not the world know that Mr. Roosevelt is determined to defeat—if he can—Mr. Foraker's ambition for any honor he might aspire to. Are there any intelligent men to serve in courage, so reoccurent to their duty, as to aid this infamous ingrate's scheme? Mr. Burton is seeking the mayoralty for the purpose of controlling Cuyahoga county's delega tions to the next state convention and next general assembly. He will use them to help endorse Mr. Taft for the presidential nomination; to help defeat any endorsement of Mr. Foraker for re-election to the United States senate to succeed himself, and any effort in the legislature referred to, to re-elect him. Are Afro-Americans of a class of 1000 who are in a State of damnable outrage? No No! 10!! If there are any who object to outside interference, what stand will they take in expressing their displeasure at the president and Secretary Taft, who wrote letters to Mr. Burton urging him to become a candidate? Have they any better right to express their wish in Cleveland politics than I to express mine? Their wish is to defeat a man who has made the presiding of the House of Representatives have torn the mask from his ungrateful face. Mine is to aid a man who has championed the cause of my people—a man who has prevented a part of my people, innocent of the crime charged, from being adjudged guilty without trial. One, THE EFFORT OF TRAINING, is another. THE EFFORT OF TRAINING IS SO HIGH that he has to purchase support for my leader; I am sourcing the alarm and asking, begging and praying for volunteers and intend to do so as long as I can find a medium by which to convey my appeal. I intend to register my protest against Mr. Roosevelt or any other man WHO OUTRAGES MY PEOPLE, I am not a slave. I am an American man, and I am a publician principle, but when the leader, whom I have helped to elect, sees fit to outrage me and mine for the purpose of pleasing my enemy and the enemy of the republican party, my leader forfeits my loyalty and forfeits my vote. As long as I am a voter I intend to express my displeasure to man or party who dare treat me or mine wrong, and that Afro-American people, who are not in the nation of the United States, there have always been traitors. Every race has had to suffer from them and it is about time some traitor among our people should be moving about the land laden with choice slices of "pie" to tempt some poor hungry wretch. Has he visited Cleveland? Are there any prominent Afro-Americans waving the Burton and the Peeled-Bees? Why, whose hunger has been appeased and who has been told that Rooseveltward the course of plenty makes its way. If Lincoln, Grant or Sumner were alive today and his political life threatened, would you rally to his cause? Would 99 per cent of the Afro-American votes be cast in his favor? Yes, a thousand times YES! Why. Because he has played a very serious role in the White House, the aforementioned men were our friend when it was popular to be such. Mr. Foraker is our active, outspoken friend WHEN IT IS EXCEEDINGLY UNPOPULAR to be so. When to be so brings down the wrath of the man we made: the man who owes to us his existence, his seat in the White House. This man in the White House, regardless of his position, is the Cleveland delegations and use them to cut short the career of our friend and his master, in manhood and statemanship. We are not any more a welcome people in this land we have done so much for. Forces are at work day and night to make our burden harder and the life of any white man of the race absolutely no more. We are not the same as we are paved more under Mr. Roosevelt than ever before. Mr. Burton Is doing Mr. Roosevelt's work in Ohio, and as Mr. Burton declares that he will oppose Senator Poraker's re-election to the U. S. senate, VOTE AGAINST BURTON! WM. T. FERGUSON.

JONES. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS. By appointment on the 12th of September, a committee of citizens, namely, Rev. Dr. H. C. Bailey, Rev. W. M. McElroy and Hon. Harry C. Smith (Rev. Dr. B. J. Prince and Rev. G. A. Slissle being unavoidably absent, one out of the city and the other with a prior engagement in the city), called upon Hon. Theodore E. Burton at his offices in the Society for Savings building, and submitted to him the following communication: COLORED VOTERS' QUERIES TO CANDIDATE THEODORE E. BURTON. Having knowledge of the late Brownsville affair, of the discharged colored soldiers by the president of the United States, and the one lone man in public life that came to their rescue, Senator J. B. Foraker, we stand pledged to him for anything in the gift of the nation. We are aware that the president and Secretary Taft are working to eliminate the senator from public life. We also have knowledge that Congressman Burton stands for what the president and secretary stand for. Therefore, we wish to ask the nominee: 1. If he is in league with the president and Secretary Taft to eliminate the senator from public life, because of his manifest interest in the colored soldiers? 2. IF ELECTED, WILL YOU WORK TO SUPPORT THE SENATOR FOR RE-ELECTION TO THE UNITED STATES SENATE, OR WORK TO DEFEAT HIM? We feel that a crisis is upon our people throughout this country, and Senator Foraker is the only spokesman we have in the national congress; and a sense of gratitude will not allow us to support an enemy of our greatest political friend. We respectfully submit these questions to Mr. Burton before we can promise any aid in electing him as mayor of this city. (Signed.) REV. DR. CHAS. BUNDY, P. E. REV. DR. J. M. GILMERE, P. E. REV. DR. H. C. BAILEY, HON. HARRY C. SMITH. REV. DR. B. J. PRINCE, REV. HRA A. COLLINS. REV. G. A. SISSLE, REV. E. D. DANDBRIDGE. REV. W. T. MAXWELL, REV. W. M. McELROY. REV. J. S. JACKSON, REV. J. H. HOLLEY. In reply Mr. Burton said to the committee that he refused to make any promises or relations relative to his future political action. Since, he has said on different occasions that he was opposed to the re-election to the United States senate of Joseph Benson Foraker, and that his opposition to him began prior to the Brownsville affair. In response to Mr. Burton's statement to the committee, members thereof said to him that the loyal Afro-American of this community could not and would not support any republican for the mayoralty of the city of Cleveland who favored the elimination of Senator Foraker from public life, and that while we, the members of the committee, in common with nearly all of the Afro-American voters of this community, were not only willing but anxious to support him (Mr. Burton), provided he, as mayor, would not at least oppose the re-election to the United States senate of Mr. Foraker, we could not possibly do so with him (Mr. Burton) maintaining a position inimical to the senator's re-election. Mr. Burton then suggested and promised to put in writing the substance of what he had said to us, and mail it to the chairman of the committee, Rev. Dr. H. C. Bailey, whose address he took. Up to date (nearly a month having elapsed) he has signally failed to keep his promise, voluntarily made. In view of the above facts, especially the all-important one which makes clear Mr. Burton's intention, if elected mayor of the city of Cleveland, to oppose the re-election to the United States senate of Mr. Foraker, and also the fact that the senior senator from Ohio is the only outspoken friend of the race in congress, where it is of the utmost importance that we have some one to speak for us when our interests are assailed, we feel justified in appealing to all loyal Afro-American voters of this community, to at least refrain from voting for Mr. Burton on election day in November next. In doing this, we are endeavoring, to the best of our knowledge and ability, to conserve the interests of the race, locally and generally, placing them above party and personal interests. There is one splendid feature of the present Burton campaign for mayor, and that is the one that will compel afro-American voters to show how much real MANHOOD there is underneath their praise of Senator Foraker and their loudly spoken words of gratitude for the great good he has done the race and greater sacrifices he has made in doing the same in the Brownsville matter, in and out of congress. There is do dodging the issue this time! You are either for Burton or Foraker in this fight! You cannot be for both! Candidate Burton says he is opposed to Senator Foraker's re-election to the U. S. Senate and was opposed to him before the Brownsville affair. If you do not believe this, ASK BURTON and he will tell you so, as he has told others of the race here in Cleveland. You cannot vote for Burton unless you wish to help kill, politically, our good friend, Senator Foraker. There are nearly 4,000 Afro-American voters in Cleveland and more than half of them are the average, or above it, in intelligence. Candidate Burton admits that he is unalterably opposed to Senator Foraker's re-election to the United States senate. 'Isn't that enough? DO NOT VOTE FOR BURTON He Frankly Admits that He Is Opposed to. Re-election of SENATOR FORAKER. J. September, a committee of citizens, M. McElroy and Hon. Harry C.

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. For President Senator J.B. Foraker Candidate Burton says, if elected mayor of Cleveland, he proposes to help President Roosevelt eliminate Senator Joseph Benson Foraker from public life. Can loyal Afro-Americans vote for Burton? No! NO!! NO!! A thousand times, NO! Attorney General Bonaparte has at last rendered an opinion that neither state nor individual can pay the transportation of immigrants without violating the immigration laws of the country. This is almost a death-blow to the south's immigration effort to secure foreign laborers to replace its Afro-American workmen. Exceptionally strong appeals for justice and fair treatment for the Afro-American were Mrs. Terrell's and President Bradford's addresses of Monday last, to the American Missionary association, in session in this city. The former's was remarkable for the clearness and exactness with which she pictured the present day, unfortunate condition and position of the Afro-American, and for the conciseness with which she called attention to the only remedy, pressing it home with the telling aid of Mr. Bradford in a way long to be remembered, and which will surely be productive of lasting, beneficial results. Both speakers followed the line of effort that in our judgment should be taken up by all persons, black and white, who would help the race most, whenever they can get the ear of the general public in any part of this country, particularly here in the north. It alone will eventually bring about the awakening upon the part of the northern whites and our friends of that race in the south, absolutely essential to the continued progress and uplift of the Afro-American. More power to Mrs. Terrell and President Bradford! Also Justice Brewer. APOSTATE BROWN If Cleveland, the largest city in the state of Ohio, is ever to be heartily ashamed of any one thing, it is the fact that it harbored for a number of years prior to his becoming a bishop of the Protestant Episcopal church in Arkansas, that man Brown who, since leaving our city and locating in the south, has "out-heroded Herod" in his advocacy of the complete separation of the white and Afro-American races in his church the country over. If he stopped at the south in his unchristianlike advocacy, it would be bad enough and possibly might be condoned while conditions there remain as they are, but he does not do that. Strange how thoroughly that miserable prejudice virus of the south takes hold of the average northerner who settles in that section with an over-weening and purely selfish desire to bask in the limelight. Of course the south will give Bishop Brown and his filk his notoriety and support of their disgraceful (at least from a Christianity viewpoint) advocacy, they can wish. It has always been so, and doubtless will for many years to come. May God forgive him! It certainly will be a very difficult thing for our people, especially the Afro-American members of the Episcopal church in the north, to do so. MORE IMPORTANT EVEN THAN TRUST BUSTING. Eight southern states have disfranchisement "laws" (abridging citizens' rights) which conflict with a section of the United States constitution, practically nullifying the same, at least as far as the states referred to are concerned, and establishing a dangerous precedent which may be followed in the future in an effort to wreck the government. This is the most serious matter before the American public today, and yet President Roosevelt ignores it to wage war on trusts and other large business combinations which, while exceedingly important, pales into insignificance when compared with the importance and necessity of immediate action to wipe out and thus put a stop to the attacks upon the very vitals of this government, we call attention to. Only organized effort upon the part of Afro-Americans of the various congress districts, through their representatives in the legislative branch of the gov ernment will ever secure for this all important question of citizens' rights the attention from the president and the congress it is entitled to. $t_0$ we years ago that our lamented and great friend, Judge Albion W. Tourgea, urged the organization of citizens' rights clubs or associations among our people of every community for this specific purpose, and it is high time that we of the north at least, were waking up to the importance of the judge's recommendations. CANDIDATE BURTON SAYS SO! A vote for Candidate Burton is a vote to eliminate from public life our only outspoken friend in congress, the savior of the black soldier's good name and reputation, both of which mean so much, so very much to all of our people of this country. Can you forget "the Black Battalion," the Brownville affair and our grand champion in and out of congress, and the only man who raised his voice in our behalf in that time of great need—SENATOR FORAKER? If you can, then the race is not deserving of white or any other kind of friends; for he has suffered so much for what he did for us in that affair. President Brownville Roosevelt and Secretary Disfranchisement Taft are endeavoring to "eliminate him from public life." CANDIDATE BURTON, TOO, SAYS HE IS OPPOSED TO SENATOR FORAKER'S RE-ELECTION AND IF ELECTED MAYOR OF CLEVELAND WILL HELP TO ELIMINATE HIM. An Afro-American who can vote for Burton with these facts staring him in the face, can do more than we can, to say the least. Our race has never as yet been termed ungrateful. Do not have it truly said, in this late day—one of progress and not retrogression. Have that LOYALTY TO THE RACE AND ITS FRIENDS, and MANHOOD, of which we all at times boast, and prove it to the whole country, the eyes of which are centered upon Cleveland Afro-Americans these days, watching to see how loyal or disloyal, grateful or ungrateful, they will be on election day in November. A vote for Burton is one to assist in the elimination of Senator Foraker from public life. There is absolutely no doubt of this NOW. REBUKE ROOSEVELT! President Roosevelt, in his letter of August 20, 1907, to Congressman Burton, wrote: "My dear Mr. Burton: * * * It is exceedingly desirable that, you should out as mayor of Cleveland, * * * I feel that it is of the utmost importance to have a man of your experience, power and character, of your long training, theoretical and practical in public life, take such a position as that of mayor of Cleveland." Of course; because the republican mayor of the largest city in the state of Ohio would be the most powerful factor in the next state convention and in the state assembly to be elected next fall, as the result of his having the control of the largest delegation in both bodies. The convention will endorse Taft or Foraker for the republican presidential nomination, and endorse the latter for re-election to the United States senate or refuse to do so. The assembly referred to will have to re-elect Senator Foraker or elect some one else to succeed him as a member of the United States senate. These are the reasons why President Roosevelt feels "that it is exceedingly desirable, and that it is of the utmost importance that Burton should win out as mayor of Cleveland. They are also the very best reasons why loyal Cairo-Africanists should help defeat him so decisively as to have the entire country understand thoroughly that we are not only for Senator Foraker first, last and all the time, but are also intent upon administering a greater rebuke to Roosevelt and Taft for their drastic action in the Brownsville matter than was given them a few months ago by our people of the city of Baltimore, Md. Loyal Afro-Americans throughout Ohio wherever there are Roosevelt-Taft republican candidates for office, especially that of mayor, not only know their duty to our soldier boys of "The Black Battalion," to the race and Senator Foraker, but will perform it with enthusiasm on election day in November. The slogan, everywhere the heart of a loyal Afro-American beats, especially in Ohio these days, is REMEMBER BROWNSVILLE AND REBUKE ROOSEVELT! Do not vote for Burton, his anti-Foraker candidate for mayor of Cleveland! OUR LOCAL CLERGY'S STAND AGAINST BURTON. These are times when each Negro leader must either stand for principle or show to the force influence of public opinion that he is either a sert or a boodler. Which side will the local leaders of our people take: the side which will cut the political throat of Senator Joseph Benson Foraker the side of his enemies, who have deceitfully made their appearance in Cleveland with a false issue to deceive the people? We are not deceived or working under any delusions when we say that they are here with a false issue and to deceive the people with a false issue and exorbitant tax. Their real and main purpose is to dethrone the brightest and truest man in the halls of our U. S. congress—Senator Joseph B. Foraker; to force upon the people a man who will use the important office of mayor to fight the Negro's only champion in the United States senate! We are requested in the Holy Bible to speak what we know and to testify to what we see. We are only coming in the radius of this injunction. You will be asked to testify with Congressman Theodore B. Burton that nearly all of our ministers and the editor of The Gazette voice these sentiments. They delivered their message in person, and the congressman not only failed to make the statement that he would not fight Senator Foraker if elected mayor of the city of Cleveland, but went further subsequently, as stated therein. After waiting over three weeks for Burton's promised written reply, we have issued a plain and emphatic statement that we cannot support Mr. Burton for mayor of Cleveland and that the help to the city of Cleveland in the halls of congress—Senator Foraker. DO NOT VOTE FOR BURTON (REV). B. J. PRINCE. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1907. WHY I CANNOT VOTE FOR CAN DIDATE BURTON. This campaign is national and local. National because two or three national characters figure in it, viz.: The president, Secretaries Taft and Garfield. I am opposed to Congressman Browne because I am opposed to President Bush because I am opposed to with whom he is associated in the present local fight for mayor of Cleveland. I am opposed to the president because he is a slanderer of my race of ten or more millions. The president endeavored to bring us into worse repute than Senator Tillman, Vardaman, Graves and Tom Dixon. We expect nothing but an evil report from those men, but we looked for a "square deal" from our political friends. Further, the president has thrown the courthouse into the wind. He教训 to the wind-"Nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty or property without due process of law. How about our discharged without honor soldiers? Without or with trial? I am opposed to Secretary Taft because in a speech at Greensboro, North Carolina, last year in July he advocated disfranchisement of southern Afro-American voters and in southern Ky. he encouraged both disfranchisement and disfranchisement of"Congress" of our people. I am opposed to the ally of the president and Secretary Taft in their effort to eliminate Senator Foraker from public life. I am a candidate. I was this before I became a republican. I am as consciences about standing with my oppressed race as I am about my region. The egroes are grouning in the country and in this country while the president and the congress of the United States still and allow it, and praise it as well done. The president's administration would be in better taste were he endeavoring to defend the weakest citizen in his constitutional rights, rather than by terrorizing the business interests of the country and shooting cubs in the Louisiana swamps. Praises Senator Forake Hamilton, O.-Hon. C. L. Maxwell, ex-consul to Santo Domingo, now a resident of Xenia, delivered an enamulation celebration speech here recently which was a brilliant effort, consisting of a splendid eulogy of the martyred President Lincoln. Lovejoy, Garrison and others who battled for enamulation, and closed with a great tribute to Senator Joseph B. Foraker. The speaker's reference to the senator was to the time he tuned and hearty aplause. Mr. Maxwell referred to his record, both in his public and private life. He said that the senator was the greatest friend that the negro had in this country and he urged his hearers to support Senator Foraker in every undertaking in which the latter took the lead. The audience grew very enthusiastic when the orator of the afternoon made referent remarks to Senator's work behalf of the colored people. Anything Senator Foraker is in favor of, you ought to be in favor of," said ex-Consul Maxwell in closing his tribute to the Ohio statesman. Olean, N. Y., News. Quarterly meeting Sunday, Rev.

Steubenville, O., Oct. 14, 1907. My Dear Mr. Smith: I want to congratulate you on the splendid fight you are making against any and all attempts to defeat Senator Foraker. You are making against any and all attempts to defeat Senator Foraker and harbors, but what are rivers and harbors as against the rights of men? Let Burton go back to congress. "The best governed city in America" can do without him or any other man that opposes the finest constitutional lawyer in the senate and the man (Senator Foraker) who is so fortunate to be "the friend of man" regardless of race. Very sincerely. (REV.) J. S. JACKSON. Bishop Preached in Wall Street Bishop Preached in Wall Street.

TERRELL RAPS THE SCUTH. (Continued from First Page.) for believing that he will do so again. At any rate he turns a deaf ear to the teachings of anarchy, the justice said. Justice Brewer was the chief speaker of Monday afternoon's session, and a large audience assembled to hear him. The second speaker was Bishop Chas, B. Galloway, of Jackson, Miss., who talked on the Christian education of the poor. He too, commented him for his resistance to disqueting political principles disseminated by many European immigrants. "Now, many of the vast multitudes of immigrants pouring into this republic are racially cold blooded and selfish," said Justice Brewer. "Not a few come tainted with the spirit of anarchy and are willing to destroy all social order in the hopes of personal gain out of the wreck. These immigrants become citizens as we are citizens and as is this colored and enfranchised race. The colored brotherhood is that order. You will find no Johann Most, Brigid Goldman, Ccolgazz or Guteau among them. In the struggle which may be expected to come between order and anarchy may it not be that these people, grateful to the nation for their liberty and to the good people of the land for their uplift in knowledge, purity and social standing, prove themselves a mighty force, upholding law, order and the supremacy of the nation? Stranger things have happened than that these people, crushed and wronged for generations, should be freed from the nation and the community at whose hands they have hitherto received mainly injustice." "The Negro in his worst estate is a better citizen than the white anarchist or the foreign ignorantus." declared Bishop Galloway. Bradford, Pa., Locals.

"Boo Hoo" Shouts the Spanked Baby HOFF CONQUERS CONSUMPTION. Home Treatment Advocated Instead of Banishment. Instead of binding heavier burdens on the consumptive and sufferer from asthma by banishment to the West it has been proven that the home treatment with the simplest medications brings about the best results. The American Bureau is distributing gratuitously a valuable treatise on asthma and consumption which contains rules and regulations relative to diet, exercise, hygiene and medicinal treatment for the cure of these maladies. It also points out ways and means by which it may be safe to come in contact with the consumptive patient. The establishment of the American Bureau is the result of the wonderful achievements of Prof. Hoff, of the faculty of the University of Vienna, whose success in the treatment of consumption, asthma and catarrh is little less than marvelous. His theories are to be promulgated in the hopes of stamping the Great White Plague from the continent. The pith of this little book has been copied by local boards of health, and by addressing the American Bureau, No. 49 Third avenue, New York City, the book will be sent free to any sufferer from asthma or consumption'. SEEK TO WIN SOLDIERS. Russian Girls Risk Life for the Cause of Liberty. "When the university opened last autumn I started to work again among the soldiers," said the young woman. "As you know, the revolutionists are at present working very hard to win over the army, and one of the means is to talk freedom directly to the soldiers. For this girls have been found to be more effective than men; the young peasant soldiers are more willing to listen to girls, and are far reader to protect them from arrest. So all over Russia hundreds and hundreds of girls are now nightly meeting with groups of soldiers, in working men's homes and in barracks. To go into barracks and talk revolution to the soldiers, hardly anything is so dangerous—for the girl caught is tried by court-martial and in a day or two is executed. From Leroy Scott's Interview with a Russian Woman, in Everybody's." Bible Names for Colts A hostier from the Blue Grass has just found employment in one of the stables of a New York man. His darky dialect is so quintil and his stories of "Ole Kaintuck" so unique no member of the household misses an opportunity to speak to him and have him say a word. His employer said to him a few days ago: "I suppose your master down south had a good many horses?" "Dat we did, sah, dat we did! And my ole master had 'em all name Bible names. Faith, Hope and Charity, Bustle, Stays and Crinoline, was all one Spring's coils!" Saw It Come Out of a Cow. A little city boy and his sister Dorothy were taken to the country for the first time. The two children were happy as the day was long. In the late afternoon they watched the cows come home, heard with delight the tinkling cow-bells, and the little boy even went in the barns to see the milking done. At supper, just as Dorothy was lifting her glass to her rosy lips, the boy cried out. "Oh, Dorothy, don't! You mustn't drink that milk. It's not fit to drink. It came out of a cow. I saw it!" Not a Hit as an Improviser. "Did you ever hear anybody improvise?" he asked. "No," sold she, and he sat down to the piano and improvised for about an hour and a half. At the end of that time he turned around, his face full of expression, and sald to her: "What do you think of it?" "Love," she exclaimed, "Beautiful! I never heard anything like it!" But this is what she said to the hall-boy when he was gone: "If that long, lank lunatic who improvises asks for me again, you tell him I am out." A Young Composer. Rachel, aged 12, wrote an composition on wild flowers in which she praised the arbutus, the liverwort, the spring beauty, the blood root, and all of the other blossoms of dell and dale. But she wrote on both sides of her sheet of paper, and when she asked her father, who was an editor, to publish her article, he called her attention to that fact. "You've written on both sides of your paper," said he. "Well," was the reply, "and don't you print on both sides of yours?" Peculiar Ice Cave A summer attraction in Colebrook, N. H., is the "ice cave" in Dixville notch. This cave is formed by a fissure in the ledge of the mountain that fills with snow in winter, and is protected from the sun's rays at all seasons. Which goes the faster after being broken—a thoroughbred colt or a $10 bill? QUALITIES OF WIT AND HUMOR. Alike, Yet in Many Ways Fundamentally Different. Wit and humor are such elemental fundamental things that it has always been found difficult to analyze them, says a writer in The Atlantic. Upon some points, however, those who have essayed this puzzling task agree, for they all hold that wit is an intellectual, humor an emotional, quality; that wit is a perception of resemblance, and humor a perception of contrast, of discrepancy, of incongruity. The incongruity is that which arises between the ideal and the fact, between theory and practice, between promise and performance; and perhaps it might be added that it is always or almost always a moral incongruity. In the case both of wit and humor there is also a pleasurable surprise, a gentle shock, which accompanies our perception of the hitherto unsuspected resemblance or incongruity. A New England farmer was once describing in the presence of a very humane person the great age and debility of a horse that he formerly owned and used. "You ought to have killed him," interrupted the humane person indignantly. "Well," drawled the farmer "we did—almost." TEN YEARS OF PAIN. Unable to Do Even Housework Because of Kidney Troubles. Mrs. Margaret Emmerich, of Clinton St., Napoleon, O., says: "For fifteen years, I was a great sufferer from, kidney troubles. My back pained me terribly. Every turn or move caused sharp, shooting pains. My eyesight was poor, dark spots appeared before me, and I had dizzy from kidney troubles. My back pained me terribly. Every turn or move caused sharp, shooting pains. My eyesight was poor, dark spots appeared before me, and I had dizzy spells. For ten years I could not do housework, and for two years did not get out of the house. The Kidney secretions were irregular, and doctors were not helping me. Doan's Kidney Pills brought me quick relief, and finally cured me. They saved my life." Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster Millburn Co. Buffalo, N. Y. THE KISS IN JAPAN. One Western Idea That Is Popular with Eastern Maidens. She was a Japanese college student, little and thin, but very graceful in her Paris girls. "The kiss," she said, blushing faintly, "was unknown in Japan 50 years ago. Now, among the aristocracy, it is becoming quite renowned. "Yet it comes as a great shock at first. It is so different, you know, from anything in a Japanese girl's experience. I have known maidens who fainted at a first kiss that was perhaps too warmly tendered. Yet these very maids became afterward ardent advocates of the new western embrace. "Frankly, I like the kiss myself. Its stimulus, and the feeling, as of red satin, when mouth touches mouth with a warm, soft shock—yes, frankly, I like the kiss, and I find it extremely difficult to deny a young man so innocent and so delightfulable an embrace. Willing Hands. There is a good story going the rounds in Pittsburgh of a young man, formerly a stock-broker, who dropped many thousands in speculation during the early spring. One night, shortly after going to bed, the Pittsburgh was awakened by strange signs. At his first motion to jump up he was greeted by a hoarse voice. "If you stir, you're a dead man!" it said. "I'm looking for money." "In that case," pleasantly answered the erstwhile speculator, "kindly allow me to arise and strike a light. I shall deem it a favor to be permitted to assist in the search."—Harper's Weekly. --- Mr. Malaprop Just Home from Rome. A regular Mr. Malaprop recently came home from his first visit to Europe. He grew enthusiastic about Rome. "It was fine," he declared, "to go into them churches over there and see the old tombs—cigarophagusses, they call 'em. And then the Skeen chapel is great, and as for the Vaccination, where the pope lives, well!" But his stock of compliments give out when he got to the subject of beggars. "I always refused them pennies," he said, "because you see, I didn't want to set a bad prestige!" Wagner as a Curative Agent Vernon Lee has told somewhere the story of the marvelous effects of Wagner on a headache. One does, after a time, succumb to what is a kind of hypnotism; the sound seems almost to clear the air, or at least to lull one into a kind of dream in which only the sense of hearing exists.

Downs, former pastor of St. Paul's Church, Columbus, succeeds Rev. Calilman at Washington. STATE BURTON 'SAYS HE IS OPPOSED TO SENATOR FORAKER'S RE-ELECTION AND IF ELECTED MAYOR OF CLEVELAND WILL HELP TO ELIMINATE HIM. An Afro-American who can vote for Burton with these facts staring him in the face can do more than we can, to say the least. Be sure to read Rev. Drs. Bailey's and Prince's and W. Forest Cozart's pleas (elsewhere in this paper) to the loyal Afro-Americans of Cleveland. Mr. Cozart was a resident of this city a few years ago. He was a housekeeper. Also Revs. J. Jackson's and W. T. Maxwell's communications. They speak volumes. John Sims, 50, engineer of a concrete mixing machine at the Bradley block, under construction on W. 3rd street, was instantly killed, when his clothing caught in the cogs of the machine and whirled him around the shaft several times before the machine collapsed onto the floor with every revolution and his limbs were wound into the spokes and torn from their sockets. Sims lived on E. 31st street and was married. For the thousand, and one time it may not be out of place to state that nothing in the past nor in the future has been or will be said in these columns against the educational work of Booker T. Washington in the south, but when it comes to the point God or mouthpiece of the Negro pertaining to his civil and political status in the south as well as in the THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 19. 1907. north, and indirectly advocates and endorses his distranchism, that is an entirely different question or proposition and we propose in our weak way to oppose Prof. Washington along these lines, regardless of the vaporings of the editor of the Times.—Chicago Broad Ax. It was not so long ago, only a few years, that Tom Fleming openly supported Hubbell, the democratic candidate for the council in ward 12, and Tom's assorted politically with Mayor Tom's own cohorts. For this and other things he had done from the 12th Ward Afro-American Republican club, of which the editor of The Gazette was president. Then, again, Tom bolted the nomination of the two-American candidate for the legislature on the republican ticket, two years ago. Now he is asking republicans to vote. He just a little inconsistent and queer, the least, isn't it? Add to this the fact that "Boos" Bill Crawford dictated Tom's nomination in spite of the protest of our leading men and our ministers and remember his unfitness for the position and you have more than enough good reasons for scratching his name as well as Burton's from the ticker. J. Clarence Brown, our candidate for the council in the 12th ward, has filed with the board of elections more than the required number of signatures necessary to permit the placing of his name on the ticket to be voted for in November, the independent republican candidate absolutely no reason why at least one Afro-American in the ward should not vote for him. Here is an opportunity to secure the representation so many of our voters in the 12th ward have of the council, where were entitled to and contending for four years long white republicans have already satisfied their intention to vote for Mr. Brown, because Councilman Hirstius is not only the creature of "Boss" Bill Grawford, but "undoubtedly a street car councilman". His course in that last two years proves this beyond all doubt. Boom Brown's candidacy and vote for on election day! Here is another opportunity to show your boasted race loyalty and manhood. The Afro-American republican meeting last week Friday evening at Woodliff hall was a "frost" in more ways than one. The Lord sent a downpour of rain which nearly drowned the band as it paraded up and down Central time advertising the meeting. Those in attendance halled, as there was plenty of room in the rear half of it. Sam Woods acted as chairman, and in introducing Henry Eubanks, who followed Candidate Burton's chilly street car talk devoid of all reference to Senator Foraker, took occasion to repeat some things he heard Henry utter at an alleged rebellion against the short time previous. It seems that Eubanks has but the one campaign speech. Of course we do not know where he secured it. However, in conversation with George W. Johnson the past week, Henry expressed himself as being highly indignant and really disgusted with Woods "for making his speech so frightening that he could do, therefore, under the circumstances, was to deliver himself of the few abusive sentences directed toward The Gazette's Washington correspondent, whom he falsely charged with having been dismissed from the government department service at Washington. D. C; and to score a very high score, he went up onto the stage while Mr. Burton was at the meeting, and frankly told him that while he voted for him for congress, he would not vote for him for mayor. After which "Banks" grabbed his coat and rushed from the meeting leaving some of the audience with Woods "for making his speech for him," and not permitting him to fully carry out "Boss" Bill Crawford's orders. AN APPEAL FROM THE "SUNNY SOUTH." Dallas, Tex., Oct. 6, 1997. **Editor GAZAR—Dear Sir:** You will undoubtedly be surprised to have a letter from me; also at my being in the south. I am quite well and hope that you are enjoying good health. I have recently opened the Southland hotel, as head-waiter. This is the finest and most modern equipped hotel in the south. Since leaving Cleveland I have spent four years in Atlantic City, New Jersey, and Detroit, leaving there on September 11 for this city, where I will be coming election in Cleveland and believe that it would be to the advantage of our race at this time that Candidate Burton be defeated. Therefore I would advise our voters of Cleveland, and especially the hotel men, to not vote for him. If Mr. Burton is elected, it will mean the Ohio endorsement of Taft for the presidents of the statesman, the only man in public who dares to demand a fair and square deal for every American citizen irrespective of creed or color; the only man that practices what he preaches and really believes in "all men rather than some men down"—I refer to Ohio's greatest stateman, Senator Joseph B. Foraker. Cleveland will the practical center of the election in the country is concentrated. The election of Mr. Burton at this time would mean the endorsement of Taft and President Roosevelt's action in the Brownsville affair, an outrage condemned by our voters throughout the country, the only exceptions being a few of the petty office-holders who have sold their property with the intention of entering Within the last year I have gone from Atlantic City as far west as Denver and Colorado Springs, and I find that the sentiment among our people as a result of the Brownsville affair is the same everywhere. I believe it police as well as the duty of our voters of Cleveland to follow the example set in Baltimore, and defend the man of the president's choice as a protest against the action of the president in dealing with the drivers. I appeal to you and through your paper to our voters of Cleveland to defeat Candidate Theodore Burun in the coming city election. Your for the race first, country and party next—in the order named. DO NOT GATE FOR BURUN! Booker Washington Quit in a Huff Exeter, N. H.—Nooker T. W. Hipkins Exeter academy, which he entered on September 11, and left the village alleging color-line grievances. J. E. Gomez, a Cuban, Washington's roommate, left at the same time as the result of an alleged slight in connection with Washington's trouble. The latter was given an honorable letter of condemnation from the former. The president of the academy says that young Washington would not obey the rules of the institution and for this had been placed under discipline and put on probation. KINK·NE Most Wonderful Discovery ever made for curly, kinky and knotty hair. Makes hair grow long, straight, soft and silky; cures dandruff and stops falling hair. Kink-ine acts like magic on the hair. Kink-ine Is No Experiment. It was discovered by R. Roberts, a famous English chemist, who has made a study of the scalp of colored people for the past 30 years, and who after much time and experience, has prepared this great tonic for the colored people. This chemist says that his experience and study have taught him that the scalp of the colored people requires a special treatment and after laboring and testing these many years he has discovered the greatest REMEDY the WORLD has ever known for the HAIR of colored people. KINK-INE will make the hair KINOW from one to three inches per inch, if the directions and instructions are carefully followed out. We have many cases on record where the above results have been obtained, and we do not hesitate when we make these claims. KINK-INE is the only safe preparation in the world that is guaranteed to make the hair straight and make dry hair smooth and stop it from breaking off and falling out: takes out all the kinks and knots, curses dandruff, makes the hair soft and silky, and by nourishing the roots gives it new life and vigor, restoring it to natural color. Read what Miss Elizabeth Jones of Chicago says of KINK-INE: "My hair was not more than three inches long when I commenced to use Kink-ine, six months ago. I have used it steadily since that date and it has grown on an average of two inches each month and it is now more than fifteen inches long. Besides, my hair has become almost straight and I fully believe by the end of the year I will have the most beautiful head of hair of any colored lady in the world." SPECIAL OFFER—To prove the quality and superiority of our goods over all others, we will sell one fullsize bottle of Kink-ine, price 25 cents, one cake of Kink-ine Soap, the best Shampoo and Toilet Soap in the world, price 25 cents, both for only 50 cents, or six bottles and six enches of soap for $3.00.

During the first meeting of Emperor or William and Andrew Carnegie on the deck of the Hohenzollern at Kiel, when there came a pause in the conversation, Mr. Carnegie, in a candid spirit of banter, said to the emperor: "You know, your majesty, that I never cared very much for kings." "But there was one king you cared a great deal for," said the emperor quickly, "And who was that?" demanded Mr. Carnegie, "Robert Bruce." "Your majesty is very right," laughed Mr. Carnegie. A Young Composer. Rachel, aged 12, wrote an composition on wild flowers in which she praised the 'arbutus, the liverwort, the spring beauty, the blood root, and all of the other blossoms of dell and dale. But she wrote on both sides of her sheet of paper, and when she asked her father, who was an editor, to publish her article, he called her attention to that fact. "You've written on both sides of your paper," said he. "Well," was the reply, "and don't you print on both sides of yours?" ALL THINGS IN=PROPORTION Invalid's Meal Evidently Had Not In creased Good Humor. For many weeks the irritable merchant had been riveted to his bed by typhoid fever. Now he was convulsing. He clamored for something to eat, declaring that he was starving. "To-morrow you may have something to eat," promised the doctor. The merchant realized that there would be a restraint to his appetite, yet he saw, in vision, a modest, steaming meal placed at his bedside. "Here is your dinner," said the nurse next day, as she gave the glowering patient a spoonful of tapioca pudding, "and the doctor emphasizes that everything else you do must be in the same proportion." Two hours later the nurse heard a frantic call from the bed chamber. "Nurse," breathed the man heapily, "I want to do some reading, bring me a postage stamp." HAVE CRAZE FOR FORMULA. Smokers Follow Fashions in the Use of Tobacco. "Make me up a package of tobacco according to the formula used by Edwin Booth," said the man with a southern accent. "That is the third man who has asked for that kind of tobacco to-day," said the dealer. "It is strange that people from remote parts of the country as well as New Yorkers make a fad of buying the same brand of tobacco that Booth smoked. And it isn't always the Booth mixture that they want. I have filed away the formulas for mixing the favorite tobacco of many famous persons. Smokers the country over have heard of this collection of recipes and one feature of every man's trip to New York is to try a pipeful of some big man's favorite tobacco. In most cases this special mixture is so strong that the nerves of the average smoker cannot stand it. He has to give up after a few pipefels and go back to a popular mixture, but he has the satisfaction of having had the experience."—The New York Sun. A Doctor of Divinity, now Editor of a well-known Religious paper, has written regarding the controversy between Collier's Weekly and the Religious Press of the Country and other outraged authors. Also restrained suits for label brought by Collier's against us for commenting upon its methods. These are his sentiments, with some very emphatic words left out. "The religious Press owes you a debt of gratitude for your courage in showing respect to Collier." "Yell-Oh Man." "Would you care to use the inclosed article on the "Boo Hoo Baby" as the "Yell-Oh Man's successor?" "A contemporary remarks that Collier's has finally run against a solid Mormon," and been damaged in its own estimation to the tune of $750,000.00. "Here is a publication which has, in almost disregard of the facts, spread broadcast damaging statements about the Religious Press and others and has suffered those false statements to the press after finding the Religious Press too quiet, and peaceful, to resent the insults, it makes the mistake of wandering into fresh field and butts its rattled head against this Post and all the World laughs. Even Christians smile, as the Post of its turn and gives it back those bad words it had taken to the Post." "It is a mistake to say all the World laughs. No cheery laugh comes from Collier's, but it cries and boo boos like a spanked baby and wants $50,000,000 to soothe its tender, lacerated feelings." Shank Heaven it has at last struck a man with "back bone" much call a spade with a "spade" and who believes in telling the whole truth without fear or favor." Perhaps Collier's with its "utmost disregard for the facts," may say no such letter exists. Nevertheless it is on file in our office and is only one of a mass of letters and other data, news and pictures, in the yellow methods of Collier's. This volume is so large that a man could not well go thru it under half a day's steady work. The letters come from various parts of America. Usually a private controversy is not interesting to the public, but this is a public controversy. The letters has been using the "yellow methods" to attention to itself, but, jumping in the air, cracking heels together and yelling "Look at me" wouldn't suffice, so it started out on a "Holler Than Thou" attack on the Religious Press and on medicine. We leave it to the public now, as we did when we first resented Collier's attacks, to say whether, in a cravings for sensation and circulation, its attacks do not amount to a systematic attack on the public, leaving it to the public to say whether Collier's, by its own policy and meth- THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1907. Cause and Effect. "Plump figures," said the woman who was reading the fashions, "are going out of style." "Nonsense!" answered her husband. "Food is rather expensive. But the situation isn't as bad as that." Studying Esperanto Field Marshal Lord Roberts is studying Esperanto and has joined the British Esperanto association. This announcement was received with enthusiasm by the delegates to the Esperanto congress at Cambridge, England The "Mound City" St. Louis rejoices in the sobriquet of Mound City from the fact that the original settlers found there many elevations which it is supposed were relics of that strange people who dwelt in the Ohio and Mississippi valleys and are known to modern times only as the Mound Builders. No adequate explanation has yet been found of their strange mode of leaving memorials of their existence. The limestone bluffs on which a part of St. Louis stands furnish, a solid foundation for the business buildings. Held Up. "Stop!" shouted the man on the country road, holding up a warning hand. Muttering something about rural cops, the automobilist obeyed. "Turn around and come back to town with me," said the stranger. "You were going at least 35 miles an hour." "You're a constable. I suppose," said the automobilist, with a covert sneer, when they had reached the village. "Me?" replied the passenger. "No, I'm a farmer and had to come into town when all the teams was busy. Nice growing weather? Thanks. Goodby." Ensuing comment is purposely omitted.—Philadelphia Public Ledger. Belling a Rat. You have probably read or heard that the best way to rid a house of rats is to catch one and fasten a bell about its neck. A boy in Delaware tried the experiment two months ago. He was badly bitten in making the bell fast, but he turned the rat loose and expected the tinkling of that bell would have great results. It did have. In the first place, the rat who wore it was constantly on the move all night, and the tinkling bell kept the family awake, and in the next the sounds brought scores of new rats to the house. Instead of being afraid of the bell, they were charmed with the music. Had the boy tied a harmonica to another rat's tail, the rodents would have had a dance every night. She Was Willing. "Yes," says the husband, "I have consented to accept the nomination." "I am so glad the party is beginning to recognize your merit," beams the wife. "Now my dear," the husband continues, "you know that political affairs are not love feasts, by any means. You must expect to see me vilified and attacked in a scandalous manner. No doubt the opposition will try to dig up sensational rumors about me, and all that sort of thing, but you must not—" "Well," she interrupts, "I am really glad of it. You have always been strangely silent about whether or not you ever were engaged to anyone before you met me." ods, has not made itself more ridiculous than any comment of ours could make it. Does Collier's work to regain any self-inflicted loss of prestige by demonstrating thru suals for damages, that it can be more artful in evading the public's attention but resentful victims of its defamation, or does it hope for starting a campaign of libel suals to silence the popular indignation, reproach and resentment which it has aroused. Collier's can not dodge this public controversy by private law suits. It can not postpone the public judgment that great jury, the Public will harden, balances us for our wait, until we get a petit jury in a court room, before denouncing this prodigal detractor of institutions founded and fostered either by individuals or by the public, itself. No announcements during our entire business career were ever made claiming "medicinal effects" for either Postum or Grape-Nuts. Medicinal elicitation was obtained from the use of medicines. Thousands of visitors go thru our entire works each month and see for themselves that Grape-Nuts contains absolutely nothing but wheat, barley and a little salt; Postum absolutely nothing but wheat and about ten percent of New Orleans Molasses. The art of preparing these simple elements in a scientific manner to obtain a food item and flavor is required some work and experience to acquire. Now, when any publication goes far enough out of its way to attack us because our advertising is "medical," it simply offers a remarkable exhibition of ignorance or worse. We do claim physiological or bodily results of favorable character following the adoption of our suggestions regarding the discontinuance of coffee and foods which may not be keeping the individual in good health. We do claim the proper healthful person. His or her health is evidence in itself that the beverages and foods used exactly fit that person. Therefore, why change? But to the man or woman who is alling, we have something to say as a result of an unusually wide experience in food and the result of proper feeding. In the palpably ignorant attack on us in Collier's, appeared this statement—"One widely circulated paragraph labors to induce the impression that Grape-Nuts will obviate the necessity of an operation in appendicitis. This is lying and potentially deadly lying." In reply to this exhibition of—well let the reader name it, the Postum Co. says: "it it be understood that appendicitis results from long continued disturbance in the intestines, caused primarily by undigested starchy food." A Break in the Ceremony. Little Tom was two years old and talking before his proud parents took him to be christened. Though limited, his vocabulary included one or two choice words picked up from his course. he looked like a perfect little boy. On the afternoon, with his wide blue eyes and sking curls and mother had got him up in great shape for the ceremony. At the most impressive point Tom turned to his father and exclaimed in aggrivated tones; "Why, damn it, he wet my head!" The Way of the Child A small boy who had recently passed his fifth birthday was riding in a car with his mother, when they were asked the customary question: "How old is the boy?" After being told the correct age, which did not require a fare, the conductor passed on to the next person. The boy sat quite still as if pondering over some question, and then, concluding that full information had not been given, called loudly to the conductor, that at the other end of the car: "And mother's 31!" A Definition of Success. How have the hypothetical scientists and the exponents of unbelief benefited themselves or humanity at large by sowing the seeds of doubt broadcast in the world? The real scientists do not fall in this category, for they are believers in the real sense of the word: they know too much, they have seen too many mysterious manifestations of the Divine creative power. Now, those who have disposed of the Bible and all evidences of inspiration, have written a great many books and some of them have won what the world at large lightly calls fame. According to the ordinary measures that are applied in such cases, they have been extremely successful, but real success means the benefit of humanity in some form or other. If no such benefits can be shown as the result of their labor, their success is not equal to that achieved by the direct poverty and the deepest ignorance. — Joel Chandler, in Uncle Remus' Magazine. WHEN A "HUNCH" HELD GOOD. Chinese Laundry Ticket Suggested a Bet on "Wing Ting." Kay Spence, a well-known horseman of Mexico, Mo., won $1,000 at the Louisville, Ky., race meeting a short time ago as the result of a "hunch." Mr. Spence has a large breeding stable of "runners" near Mexico, and attends all the big racing events in the country. Not long since he was in Louisville and entered the betting ring to see what odds were being offered on the various entries. He found that Joaquín was the favorite at even money, and pulled his wallet from his pocket, intending to bet on that horse. His attention was attracted by something that fell from his wallet to the ground, and he stooped and picked it up. It was a Chinese laundry ticket. He looked at some books" again and found that there was a chair in a Chinese Wing. Wing, at ten to one. That settled it, for he considered he had received a "hunch" that could not be overlooked. Wing Ting won handily. Needless to say, those who backed the favorite considered Sphere the seventh son of the seventh son.—Kansas City Star. such as white bread, potatoes, rice, partly cooked cereals and such. Starchy food is not digested in the upper stomach but passes on into the duodenum, or lower stomach and intestines, where, in a healthy individual, the transformation of the starch in form of sugar is completed and then it is digested. But if the digestion are weakened, a part of the starchy food will lie in the warmth and moisture of the body and decay, generating gases and irritating the mucous surfaces until under such conditions the whole lower part of the alimentary canal, including the colon and the appendix, becomes involved. Disease sets up and activates takes the form known as appenditis. When the symptoms of the trouble make their appearance, would it not be good, practical, common sense, to discontinue the starchy food which is causing the trouble and take a food in which the starch has been transformed into a form of sugar in the process of manufacture? The same form of sugar found in the human body after starch has been perfectly digested. Now, human food is made up very largely of starch and is required by the body for energy and warmth. Naturally, therefore, its use should be limited. The starch and the sugars given above it is made possible in the manufacture of Grape-Nuts. In connection with this change of food to bring relief from physical disturbances, we have suggested washing out the intestines to get rid of the imminent inflammation. Naturally, there are cases where the disease has lain dormant and the abuse continued too long, until apparently only the knife will avail. But it is a well-established fact among the best physicians who are acquainted with the details above recited, that the measures are far and away the best. Are we to be condemned for suggesting a way to prevent disease by following natural methods and for perfecting a food that contains no "medicine" and produces no "medicinal effects" but which has guided literally thousands of people from sickness to health? We do not receive during the years past awnings of 25,000 letters from people who have been either helped or made entirely well by following our suggestions, and they are simple. If coffee disagrees and causes any of the ailments common to some coffee quitters it and take on Postum. If when you eat potato, rice and other starch foods make trouble, quit and use Grape-Nuts food which is largely predigested and will digest, nourish and strengthen, when other forms of food do not. It's just plain old common sense. "There's a Reason for Postum and Grape-Nuts. Postum Cereal Co. Ltd.

The Alberta is the peach on which Arkansas depends for this year's output. Arkansas, by the way, has the largest peach orchard in the United States, if not in the world. It covers an area of more than 3,000 acres and is located about 100 miles south of Fort Smith. This orchard will produce enough peaches this year to yield to its owners a small fortune. RHEUMATISM RECIPE PREPARE SIMPLE HOME-MADE MIXTURE YOURSELF. Buy the Ingredients from Any Drug gist in Your Town and Shake Them in a Bottle to Mix This. A well-known authority on Rheumatism gives the readers of a large New York daily paper the following valuable, yet simple and harmless prescription, which any one can easily prepare at home: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one half ounce; compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mix by shaking well in a bottle, and take a teaspoonful each meal and at bedtime. He states that the ingredients can be obtained from any good prescription pharmacy at small cost, and, being a vegetable extraction, are harmless to take. This pleasant mixture, if taken regularly for a few days, is said to overcome almost any case of Rheumatism. The pain and swelling, if any, diminishes with each dose, until permanent results are obtained, and without injuring the stomach. While there are many so-called Rheumatism remedies, patent medicines, etc., some of which do give relief, few really give permanent results, and the above will no doubt, be greatly appreciated by many sufferers here at this time. Inquiry at the drug stores of even the small towns elicits the information that these drugs are harmless and can be bought separately, or the druggists will mix the prescription if asked to. A. REAL "HOSS" RACE Country Fair the Place to See It at Its Best. If you would see a horse strapped, booted, braced and geared to the limit, you must seek such a track as you see at the oldtime country fair. Here comes an awkward feathertight gray which never went under 2:50 in his life. He is hobbled and checked and goggled, and hitched up sidewise, lengthwise and crosswise until there is more hareness than horse. You wonder how his driver ever got him into this rigging, and how he will get him out again without cutting him free with a jackknife. A farmer with a gray beard and twinkling eye observes to his neighbor: "Last time John Martin had that plug out on the road I told him he had the old cripple overloaded with fust-aids-to-the-injured. They strap that was callled to helst up his knees must ha' pulled too tight and the critter was yanked clean off the ground. What John was gettin' ready for was a race for flyin' machines, not a hoss trot."—From "The Country Fair," by David Lansing, in Outing. BABY WASTED TO SKELETON. In Tormentes with Terrible Sores on Face and Body—Tore at Flesh —Cured by Cuticura. "My little son, when about a year and a half old began to have sores come out on his face. They began to come on his arms, then on other parts of his body, and then one came on his chest, worse than the others. At the end of about a year and a half of suffering he grew so bad I had I to tie his hands in clothes at night to keep him from scratching the sores and tearing the flesh. He got to be a more skeleton and was hardly able to walk. I sent to the drug store and got a cake of Cuticura Soap and a box of Cuticura Ointment, and at the end of about two months the sores were all well. He has never had any sores of any kind since, and only for the Cuticura Remedies my precious child would have died from these terrible sores. I used only one cake of Soap and about three boxes of Ointment. Mrs. Egbert Shelldn. R. F. D. No. 1, Woodville, Conn., April 22, 1905." Cats as Plague Preventive An Italian correspondent of the North China Daily News writes: "The newspapers have latterly been full of all sorts of suggestions for the stamping out of plague. For instance, never kill rats; if you do the fatal rat flea may be driven to feed on you. Also, compel each householder to keep cats. In fact, let the cult of the cat as it prevailed in ancient Egypt be revived in India. Plenty of cats, no rats." What's in a Name? "Old Amy, you know, who is famous for being arrested, has been sent to jail again. But as she weighs nearly 300 pounds and is a good fighter, it took nearly all the reserve force to get her in the wagon." Then the magistrate who sent her to jail came to be arrested, too. "Why so?"

There's nothing will do your sons so much good." But the colonel looked at him asthast. "Why, them lads of mine don't need any cyclopedia. They ride fules!"
