TWENTY-FIFTH YEAR. NO. 16. OUR PRESS' Comment on the Great Cleveland Victory the president and opposed to Joseph B. Foraker; the other show the strength of the Taft northern Ohio. Here again voted made a record for voting against Burton. The r this contest is an endorsement Roosevelt's action, and demination of the interference Rosevelt in matters which Unstinted Praise for All, and Especially for Revs. Bailey and Prince and The Gazette for Leading Fight. Too much Johnson, too much Brownsville and too much Foraker defeated Theodore Burton in Cleveland, Ohio—Nashville (Tenn.) Globe. The victory won by Tom Johnson over Theodore Burton in Cleveland, Ohio, on last Tuesday is a great demonstration of the immense and fast increase popularity of Cleveland's big-hearted mayor. Not only does it attest the high esteem in which Mayor Johnson is held, but it prolongs the political life of Ohio's grand and good senior senator, the Hon. Joseph Benson Foraker. This is so, because, had Congressman Burton been elected mayor of Cleveland, he would have been able to control the delegates of his county to the next state convention and the next Ohio assembly and thus eliminate Senator Foraker from public life—Martinsburg (W. Va.) Pioneer Press. In the, Cleveland, Ohio, municipal fight it is claimed that Congressman Burton was the candidate of the president and Secretary of War Taft, and the friends of President Roosevelt and Secretary of War Taft were lending all their influence to elect Mr. Burton to the mayoralty of Cleveland, but their efforts proved unavailing and the Thames proved objectionable. Many republicans voted against Mr. Burton because he refused to admit that he would support and uphold Senator Foraker for re-election to the United States senate. Whether this can be considered as a black eye to the president and secretary of war is best known to those who are in position to know all the facts—Newport News (Va.) Star. Negroes are becoming politically wise. The result of the recent election shows that they are voting for men and measures like other nationalities, and will receive the proper recognition for their manly stand. They voted in Kentucky with the republicans. They voted with Tammany (the heist candidate and defeated the Heist candidate for sheriff in New York, and refused to support Burton, re-electing Tom L. Johnson mayor of Cleveland, O., democratic candidate, as against Congressman Burton, the republican candidate run by President Roosevelt, who represented his views in the Negro soldiers' Brownsville case. The Negroes resented this action by scratching Burton, and the man who voted against any date that the president and members. The Negroes are thoroughly organized in the movement and will carry it out—Springfield (II.) Leader. It is a blessing to note that the better or the thinking class of colored people, including the preachers, refused to support Burton, thereby assisting Johnson to receive more than nine thousand majority over the former. It is true that the outfit running the Cleveland Journal, for a little time, assisted Johnson by electing Burton, but as only a few copies are printed each week, its so-called influence did not amount to anything, and its fight on Senator Foraker, is the only man in the United States senate who has the courage to stand up and champion the cause of the black man, was not felt by him in the slightest degree, and its influence was as against the true friends of the race, ought to forever damn it in the estimation of all decent and liberty-loving people. So farewell Taft, Burton, Roosevelt, and the Cleveland Journal, for on last Tuesday a black eye was administered to the whole outfit by the hand of justice, for which we are exceedingly thankful—Chicago Broad Ax. --- The election of Tom L. Johnson as mayor of Cleveland over Congressman Burton, who was the administration candidate, is a straw which shows the way that the wind is blowing. Behind the candidacy of Mr. Johnson were the democratic party and the Foraker forces and especially the Negro vote of that city. The result of the race to be last Tuesday is an indication of the strength of the Foraker movement in the state of Ohio and a hopeful augury of what may be accomplished for Senator Foraker's candidacy for the presidency by hard and persistent work. The Negroes of Cleveland are to be congratulated on the part which they played in the defeat of a man whom President Roosevelt endeavored to force him to resign. He is hoped that the Negroes throughout Ohio and in other western and northern states will combine and vote with the democrats whenever republicans prove false to their trust and the interests of a Negro are overlooked by them. We all rejoice over Foraker's great victory.—Charleston (S. C.) Southern Reporter. The most important contest settled by Tuesday's election, in which Mr. Roosevelt was directly responsible, was the Cleveland contest in which Tom L. Johnson has overwhelmingly defeated Congressman Burton, who was backed by the whole force of the federal administration. Congressman Burton, considered the strongest man in the state and the direct representative of the Republican nominee against Johnson for a two-fold purpose, one of which was to show that the voters of Cleveland were heartily in sympathy with the president and opposed to Senator Joseph B. Foraker; the other was to show the strength of the Taft boom in northern Ohio. Here again the colony took the record for itself in voting against Burton. This contest is an endorsement of Senator Foraker's action, and a condemnation of the interference of Mr. Roosevelt in matters which concern him and must be accepted by Roosevelt. Roosevelt's reckless more than an endorsement—Philadelphia (Pa.) Weekly Tribune. Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft, when they examine the returns from the elections held Tuesday and think of Brownville, can well exclaim in full accord with Lady Macbeth: "Out, damned spot." For they will find cold comfort from the returns. In most of the states where the republican party was successful, the reactionaries were in the ascendance. In Ohio, the N.Y. candidate for governor, the Hon. Thad Burton, was undoubtedly defeated by the votes of Negroes led by Hon. Harry C. Smith, the veteran editor of The Cleveland Gazette. In Cincinnati the Cox machine, which Secretary Taft defeated in a previous campaign, landed a republican victory. * * * That Brownville has played a part in the election is evident from the instruction to campaigners in New York previous season. "The mention Roosevelt's name when addressing Negroes." In Cleveland, Burton's opposition to Foraker, because of the latter's break with the president on the account of the Brownville investigation, was made the basis of the colored voters' opposition to the republican ticket. In Kentucky, though the colored voters supported the ticket—it was only after the state convention had refused to endorse Taft Brownville injustice has made itself felt the poole and it should make itself felt the republican party to sit up and take notice. A party name will not make all men vote to endorse wrong doing.—Nashville (Tenn.) Globe. The results of the election in Cleveland were exceedingly gratifying to The Informer and renew our faith in the manly character of the multitudes of colored American gentlemen who have come to the point of resenting insult and injury and of repudiating the truckling servility that has been so humiliating to self-respecting Negroes in the past. Burton was beaten aplenty, but he is not the chief sufferer, but he is the most Roosevelt and Taft, whom Negroes had but never forget because of the infamous "Brownville" incident. Curiously enough many of the white newspapers seem to ignore the importance of the Negro defection from the republican candidate for mayor in Cleveland, but the fact remains that the bolt of the 4,000 colored American voters Tuesday, together with the large number of white supporters of the Democratic Party, tendentially encompassed the defeat of Mr. Burton incidentally elected that other mighty friend of humanity, Hon. Tom Loffin Johnson. The star of Roosevelt and Taft has been materially lowered in Ohio and the commanding figure of Foraker again looms up to the first place in Buckeye politics. Hon. Harry C. Smith, the intrepid editor of The Gazette, who, with his noble lieutenants, Revs. Prince and Bailey, fought so effectively for the right, is the first African-American to be recalled with in future. The poor, pitiful Cleveland Journal, poor thing, she may as well kiss her friends good-bye and back off the viaduct into the bottomless Cuyahoga—Detroit (Mich.) Informer. Hon. Theodore E. Burton, candidate for mayor of Cleveland, Ohio, against Mayor Tom L. Johnson, was defeated last Tuesday, although he had the endorsement of President Roosevelt and it was said made the canvass on his suggestion. Previous to the election, Mr. Burton refused to give any assurance to a delegation of colored men that he would be the candidate for re-election to the United States senate. As a result, he was bitterly opposed by some of the colored citizens under the acknowledged leadership of Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Cleveland (O.) Gazette. There will be no tears shed for the delegation of colored men of the country, " " " " " " Senator Forker did shake the statement as to the guilt of the Negro troopers. He not only shook it, but battered it dawn as well. He flew the colors of the law that every person is presumed innocent until he is proved guilty and an republical bedtime of infamous punishment small not be meted, save by due process of law. This was the position of the distinguished senator from Ohio and this is the position of the voters of color of Cleveland, Ohio, led by that "prince of race leaders". Hon. Harry C. Smith, Ohio, who contributed largely to the House of Cleveland E. Burton, is a warning of the Ohio state. This is a warning on the political horizon and is an indication as to what the republican leaders of the Roosevelt stripe may expect in Ohio, Indiana, New York, New Jersey and many other northern states unless something is done to right the wrong balance in the "tallonation" in its true light before the people of the world—Richmond (Va.) Planet. While it would not have been proper for us to have said so before last Tuesday's election, we can now say that we were fearful of the outcome in Cleveland, where Representative in Congress Theodore Burton was running for mayor. We have no objection to Mr. Burton's being mayor. We have no objection to Mr. Burton having made a good one. He had the backing of the president and Secretary Taft. The impression was abroad that he was running to test the sentiment of Ohio republicans as to Senator Foaker's future. It was believed that had Mr. Burton been successful, his vote would have been that as an indemnsement of his ambition to succeed Senator Foraker. Many leading colored men in Ohio and elsewhere believed that Burton's success meant Foraker's elimination. We shared in that belief. We would not advocate opposition to Secretary Taft should be nominated by his party. Continued on Second PAGE. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE.

Editor Gazette, Dear Sir—Accept my congratulations on your well-earned victory in your city. Had Mr. Burton made the fight for the best interest of the city of Cleveland, I would not to counsel in his actions; but he did not. I read in his actions State Journal, Columbus, as coming from the Taft headquarters, as follows: "At Taft headquarters there is general sorrow over the defeat of Theodore Burton. Of course the Cleveland congressman is not the strongest factor in state politics; he would have been better to be aware that he did not want to be made Cleveland; that his tastes and inclination, as well as his training, was for his work in congress, etc." By this you see that it is admitted by his managers that he was working simply to get control of the state politically, and be interested in the city of Cleveland. I hope that, not to a set of men whose purpose has been simply to disguise us. With regards, I am yours for success, (Dr.) S. J. JORDAN. Dallas, Tex., Nov. 7, 1907 Gatlin, Tex., Nov. 7, 1907. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir—Please accept my hearty congratulations upon the hard fight and great victory in the recent election. I am sure I will efforts through The Gazette largely contributed to the defeat of Mr. Burton, which means a rebuke to the president and vindication for Senator Foraker. Now that we have won this victory, there is a greater battle to be fought one year hence. I believe that a movement should be started now to state the reasons why voters of several states who believe in freedom, "a square deal," justice and equality before the law, for every American citizen. The colored voters, and especially those of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, New York and New Jersey, if well organized, and work together, can wield the balance of power in the national election next year. I believe it wise for you and others to call a national conference to way appoint a national committee in Indianapolis or Chicago, and formulate a plan of Foraker clubs and establish them wherever possible, and get out a campaign button or badge and open a roll of honor for those colored voters who have race pride enough to stand up for citizenship and manhood. I believe this suggestion is worthy of a serious consideration. I expect to return north soon, and if in my humble way I can be of any service it will be a pleasure to me. W. F. COZART Louisville Ky.

Editor Gazette, My Dear Comrade in the Battles of the Race.—I read with interest your very many fight in past issues of your paper, and hereby extend my congratulations for the victory you have achieved in the defeat of Mr. Burton for mayor of your city. If there was a time in the history of the race who succeeded a line-up against his opponents, now. Let the American Negro desert Senator Foraker for any cause and it will be many years before any white man will throw himself in the breach in our defense. In all ages, men who have fought the battles for the oppressed have at least had the gratitude of those whom they defended. Now, nothing would be more painful to a Continued on Second Page IN UNION THERE GS STRAIGHT TRAITORS! Even Burton Must Despise Them! Roosevelt and Taft Will Have No Use for Them—Senator Foraker! (Special to The Gazette.) W. T. FERGUSON. The senate committee to inquire into the Brownsville affair will meet to resume its work next week. Senator Foraker has new evidence of a very important nature to introduce, but it is said that efforts will be made to close the inquiry immediately upon the reassembling of the committee. Efforts to close will be led by Senator Warner, of Missouri, a "Roosevelt republican." Why should the committee make such steps; are they afraid of the curbing truths that the invincible Foraker has asserted? It appears that some of the committee are fearful that the Negro soldiers will come out without any wounds or scars, except those Roosevelt and Taft have given them and the race.

Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio 1894 to 1893 Member Ohio Legislature. 1896 to 1893 1800 to 1902 THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. For President Senator J.B. Foraker Revs. Drs. Bailey and Prince are entitled to all the praise they are receiving, and more too. The first gun of the Foraker campaign for the presidential nomination next year will be fired next week, and what a rattling of dry-bones in the Roosevelt-Taft camp there will be all over the country, particularly here in Ohio. Superintendent (Brascher) of Cory chapel Sunday school can tell a willfully deliberate and malicious lie like that is more than we can explain. All of the eleven ministers "held out against Burton to the last" except two, Revs. Maxwell and Sissle being the only ones proselytized. Secretary Taft's Greenbsboro, N. C., speech of last year and his Lexington, Ky., address of this year were entirely too favorable to disfranchisement and "Jim Crow" carism to permit loyal and sensible Afro-Americans to favor him for any office of importance in any of the principle branches of the government. These days there does not seem to be any Afro-Americans (with possibly two or three "boodle" exceptions) who voted for Candidate Burton. All now agree that our fight was right and the only thing for loyal Afro-Americans, true friends of Senator Foraker, to do under the circumstances. Great was the victory we helped to win. All honor to the manly Afro-Americans of this community. Rev. H. C. Bailey and Rev. B. J. Prince, Baptist ministers, were the only ministers to hold out against Burton to the last—Local exchange. How Brascher, the superintendent of Cory, M. E. Sunday school, can tell such a wilfully malicious LIE is more than we can understand. NINE of the eleven "ministers held out against Burton until the last." Only two were proselytized—the pastors of Cory and St. James churches. Remember Brownsville? Roosevelt and Taft, as well as Burton, will think so, many times, before they have done with the affair. Their present effort to prevent Senator Foraker from introducing some valuable testimony he has secured at great expense and effort since the last recess of the committee on military affairs, is calculated only to aggravate the matter as far as our people are concerned. It will be remembered that just before the committee's recess or adjournment the administration had witnesses against the soldiers, examined early in the investigation, put upon the stand before the committee a second time, and the way they lied simply "out-heroled Herod." It is this condition of affairs which the Roosevelt-Taft administration hopes to maintain until the Brownsville affair is threshed out or smothered in the senate this winter. It is anything with them, to leave an impression of guilt upon a part, if not all of "The Black Bat Ballion." They will fail, however, because they have to deal with their master—our great and good friend, Senator Joseph Benson Foraker. There was even less excuse for Prof. W. S. Searborough to "butt" into the recent local campaign as he did, than there was for President Roosevelt and Secretary Taft, because he is too intelligent a man not to know that the candidacy of Congressman Theodore E. Burton for mayor of Cleveland, encouraged as it was by the administration for the purpose of securing aid in its effort to eliminate from public life Senator Foraker, simply forced the loyal, manly and grateful Afro-Americans of this community to oppose Burton. Then, too, we warned him (Searborough) in answer to a letter sent to us early in the campaign to keep his hands off, for reasons obvious. Therefore no excuse for his comprehensible action in the matter, THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1907. that he can possibly offer, ought to be seriously considered, to say nothing of being accepted. His letter to Booker T. Washington, published in the Tuskegee Student, about two months ago, assuring that gentleman of his great loyalty to him along all lines, rather prepared us for the unwarranted truckling and somewhat ridiculous course he pursued when uninvited, and without any good reason wherever he butted into our recent local campaign, and, too, on the wrong side from a race viewpoint. We regret exceedingly to be compelled to write thus severely in criticism of a friend of at least twenty-five years' standing. Yet under the circumstances, we feel fully justified in so doing. BROWNSVILLE REMEMBERED! All over this country, election day, our people remembered Brownsville. Candidates with the approval of Roosevelt and Taft were helped down to defeat by them in such a way as to leave no doubt in the mind of any fair-minded, intelligent person that Afro-Americans have at last awakened and are using the ballot as they should to strike, without fear or favor, in the interest of the race. This is as it should be, because our rights, or nothing else will be respected until the leaders, as well as the rank and file of the republican party learn that we too, like all other classes, will strike in our own defense and battle aggressively at the polls, as well as elsewhere, for all that we are entitled to. Nothing has happened in the last quarter of a century which has done so much to bring about this condition, and a union among our people such as has not existed since reconstruction days, as the Brownsville affair. In this session, it has proven a God-send. Yes, we remembered Brownsville, and the longer our people continue to do so in the light of their action on the recent election day, the better it is going to be for them. Tell your congressman and U. S. senators to carry this news to Roosevelt and Taft, and tell them that unless justice is meted out to "The Black Battalion" this winter, there will be no republican elected president next year, especially if the candidate should be so unfortunate as to bear the Roosevelt stamp of approval. In saying this, we do not regard the Taft candidacy seriously, nor believe that the president would be foolish enough to try for a third term. Neither of these two worthies, in the face of their abuse of our Brownsville soldiers and the race, in messages to congress last winter, could hope for any material support from loyal and manly Afro-Americans. STOOD TO THE LAST! Of the eleven ministers who signed or authorized their names to be signed to the questions under date of September 9, 1907, submitted for answer to Candidate Burton, the following nine stood until the last, like Spartans, to the guns that thundered out against President Roosevelt's candidate for mayor of Cleveland: REV. DR. B. J. PRINCE. REV. DR. H. C. BAILEY. REV. DR. CHAS. BUNDY. REV. DR. J. M. GILMERE. REV. IRA A. COLLINS. REV. E. D. DANDRIDGE. REV. W. M. McELROY. REV. J. H. HOLLEY. REV. J. S. JACKSON. (Now of Steubenville.) The two to be proselyted at a most unfortunate time for them, to say the least, were Messrs. W. T. Maxwell and G. A. Sissle. All honor to that brave, manly Christian nine who stood shoulder to shoulder with the editor of The Gazette in the recent great battle for the race. It was "up to" the grateful, loyal and manly Afro-Americans of Cleveland to show unmistakably how great was the feeling of gratitude to Senator Foraker, of our people the country over, not alone for his efforts in behalf of "The Black Battalion" and the race in the Brownsville matter, but also for the true friendship manifested by him on many occasions throughout the last quarter of a century. How our efforts in the local campaign, which closed recently, are appreciated by the great mass of Afro-Americans, can be correctly gauged, after a careful reading of the telegrams, letters and press comment published upon the first page today. Give them a careful reading and be benefited. To say that they are extremely gratifying and encouraging is to say the least. FORTUNE. (Continued from First Page.) true heart than to have those whose cause it espoused, join those whom it strove to beat back from the oppressed. If the ten million Negroes will line up with Senator Foraker as they ought, there will be other friends to come to our rescue, and our position in this country will be much better. Mr. Burton, you have done the race incalculable service and again won place in the future history of the Afro-American voters of Ohio, and especially of Cleveland, your home city. Indeed, we do remember Brownville! Now, in the name of RIGHT, line up Ohio for the presidential campaign. God bless and give you strength of mind and body and surround you with friends like Drs. Prince and Bailey, to fight the battles of our oppressed people, is our sincere desire. Yours with great respect. (REV.) L. G. J. ORDAN Madam E.

(Continued from First Page.) for president, but we rejoice that emphatic notice has been served on him and the president that we are not a force of ingrates and that we will do nothing to ingrate him, who means to destroy the one man who has had the courage to champion the cause of the oppressed. The Brownville trouble will not down. It will never be settled until it is settled right. If the president and his advisers are wise they will settle it before the campaign of 1908 begins. The great American heart is not dead to be used for justice. In the entire history of our country there has never been a man who has been the bar of public opinion than brave old Sergent, Mingo Saunders, with his twenty-six years' flawless record, his wounds, his medals and his unmerited disgrace, as pictured by Harper's Weekly. Mr. Burton better stifle his senatorial ambition. The president had better hearken to his second and more sober judgment and restore that black battalion to the army. Taft had better hitch to his aspirations to charter wheels, for if he does not Tom Johnson, who will be idolate against him for president, Ohio will be a mighty uncertain quantity. —Philadelphia (Pa.)

Taft-Burton republicans were stabbed to the heart Wednesday by a story from Washington. A Taft agent, who has just visited the president, sent back the result of his interview with the Cleveland election, newspapers over the years, orally interpreted the result as a bunch of lovely white roses laid on the coffin of the Taft boom for president. The Taft boomers at Columbus dispatched a man from headquarters to see the president and ask him to come back with a new statement saying that Wm. H. Taft is his first and only love. "Nay, nay," the president replied. "Not now. No more statements." Since the message came, the Taft-Brown folk have been wondering. People who congressman Burton say he now believes he will be nominated at the next republican convention. The president's refusal to issue a further endorsement of Taft at this time follows a New York interview by Geo. B. Cox, the Cincinnati boss, in which he turned down both Taft and Burton, and announced that both Foraker and Dick Broussard would be the United States senate. The gloom that followed this has been thickened by the president's silence. A telegram to "The Press" from Washington says that President Roosevelt will not permit the Roosevelt strength to be scattered among various candidates at this time. The president believes that the present money stringency is a Wall street plot that Chas. E. Hughes, governor of New York, has been picked as the Rockefeller-Piermont Morgan candidate to do the job. Foraker to Eight Taft Cincinnati. O—Senator Foraker, always aggressive, favors an open fight with Taft for Ohio's presidential nomination endorsement and does not fear the result. That he has actually begun work is shown by the number of country newspapers in Ohio which in the last week have abandoned Taft and have come over editorially for the newspapers. These newspapers say that Taft would have been state; that the Negro vote could not be polled for him; that he has no strength among independent voters and that if Ohio must have a candidate the man must be Foraker. That the senator has had a hand in this shifting of newspapers from the Taft column there is little reason to doubt and it indicates his purpose to take the job. In the meantime the men are confident that at the very worst they will spliff Ohio almost evenly and win one half the delegates make the secretary impossible in a national campaign. Olean, N.

WALSH'S CASE. USED THE MONEY OF BANKS To Obtain for Himself the Ownership of Various Properties, Giving, It Is Alleged, Worthless Bonds as Security. Chicago, Ill. — The trial of John R. Walsh, formerly president of the Chicago national bank, now defunct, on a charge of misuse of the funds of that institution, formally opened Wednesday. The jury was completed and Assistant District Attorney Fletcher Dobyns, at the opening of the afternoon session, began the preliminary statement in behalf of the government. The government will attempt to show that Walsh took from the Chicago national bank, the Equitable Trust Co. and the Home Savings bank Dobyns declared that Walsh obtained the valuable large properties without cost to himself by using the funds of the banks. He said: "Watered stock to the probable amount of $25,000,000 or $30,000,000 was issued. Mr. Walsh, through his employees, voted the stock to himself. He then sold this stock to the banks, taking the money to build up the bank. He then sold the stock so sold by Mr. Walsh was practically valueless. It was the practice of Mr. Walsh to make loans to one of his companies and then sell the bonds of that company to the bank. These bonds were practically worthless." The assistant district attorney ate the bank's records and induced various persons to sign "accommodation" notes for the bank. "Then," said Dobyna, "he signed the names of people to notes. Checks were made out papable to bearer, and credited to the personal account of Mr. Walsh." "Bonds were made out to the same families whose names were on the bank." Checks were made to Mr. Walsh's account. "In 1903 Mr. Walsh was told by the bank examiner that the Chicago national bank was being loaded down with the securities of Mr. Walsh's personal enterprises. The examiner ordered him to take these securities out, and he was given a warrant. In 1904 the bank was found in the same condition, the warning was repeated and Mr. Walsh again promised to remove the securities. Another examination showed that the bank was in a worse condition than ever and it was then ordered closed. The bank will show that Walsh's method was to buy from himself, fix his own price and put the money in his pocket." DECISION WAS RESERVED Case of Inter-state Commerce Commission sion in New York. Mr. Is- sard heard in Court. New York City. — After seven hours and a half of argument on both sides of the question, Judge Hough, in the United States circuit court, announced last night that he would not be ready to render a decision on the petition of the inter-state commerce commission to compel J. H. Harriman to answer certain question papers led to him last spring in the course of the commission's investigation into the so-called Harriman lines, until December 1. The arguments took a wide range and the powers of the inter-state commerce commission were thoroughly examined, including John Spooner, of Wisconsin, appeared for the time in the case and argued in defense of the position maintained by Mr. Harriman—that he is not required to tell the commission what profit he made in selling the stocks of other railroads held by him to the Union Pacific company, or to detail the manner in which the famous 10 per cent. Union Pacific bond was declared in August, 1906, and its announcement deferred for two days. All that Mr. Harriman had done, Mr. Milburn declared, had met with the fullest approval of the stockholders of the Union Pacific Co. He stated that allowing for losses sustained in the recent heavy slump of prices the Union Pacific had profited no less than $22,000,000 by its stock purchases. DEFENSE WILL PLEAD INSANITY Trial of Mrs. Annie Bradley, Who Killed Ex-Senator Brown, Begins. Washington, D. C. "The first day of the trial of Mrs. Annie M. Bradley on the charge of murdering ex-United States Senator Brown, of Utah, was spent in an effort to obtain a jury. When it took Wednesday the court adjourned for the day that preliminary work was still incomplete, notwithstanding 61 men had been examined as to their competency to sit in the case. The questions put by the attorneys for the prosecution and the defense served to define to some extent the lines which will be followed by both sides of the case. It was evidential that upon Mrs. Bradley will depend upon the pleas insanity as their only defense. If there was any confidence in the plea of justification it was not expressed. Six Men Killed by a Train Milwaukee, Wis.—Six men were killed at South Milwaukee last night when a Chicago & Northwestern train ran into a crowd on a grade crossing near the victims so muttered that identification was for a time impossible.

Will Issue Clearing House Checks. Chicago, Ill.—The Chicago Clearing house has decided to issue clearing house checks to meet pay that will be expected that they will be on Friday the checks will be for $1, $2, $5 and $10 For the MODISH WOMAN BROWN FELT FOR WEAR WITH TAILOR MADE GOWN FALL GOWN IN GRAY STRIPED MATERIAL ROUGH WITH BLACK SKIN BANDS CHARMING HAT OF SOFT FELT COSTUME OF SEMI-FITTING SACQUE SHAPE COAT A COCHE HAT TRIMMED IN OSTRICH PLUMES A MATTER OF FORM. "Frau Flamingo, where do you get your frocks made? You always look as elegant." With the coming of fall the bride has again made her appearance in all her loveliness, and there is a fresh array of new and beautiful frocks in the contemplation of which women never tire. Satin sometimes velled with lace is at the moment the favorite wedding robe, although the robe of one fashionable bride of the east was made of a super bunne velvet trimmed with old family point lace and a large lace shawl velled to the richness of the costume. Of course it takes either a tall or a full figure to properly carry such rich materials, and the petite or thin bride would do well to wear a chiffon or other filly gown and a tulle veil. Such frocks can be exquisitely embroidered and be quite as beautiful and far more suitable for the thin or short girl than velvet. No matter how simple the bridal gown itself may be, there is a large field of choice in the matter of the attendants' frocks, and a party of bridesmaids may be gowned in different colors or shades of the same color, or if a matron of honor or a maid of honor, or both, are added to bridesmaids, there is a still greater chance to display artistic taste and originality. If there is to be extreme simplicity in the wedding gowns, then a house wedding or a small church would seem the proper thing; but if a large church wedding, with a long invitation list included in the program, then let there be as novel and beautiful garments and other accessories to the pageant as is consistent with good taste—and a lot more is consistent than the hidebound lover of the commonplace is usually willing to admit. The French adhere strictly to the jeune fille idea in dressing their brides, the simplest frocks and usually tulle veils, but their girl brides are quite different from ours, and so is the whole social scheme. It behoves the American woman to exercise her originality in the matter of dress, if she have it, and not only to select the best of the English and continental fashions, to but to add touches of her own and add originality to the scheme or to evolve new designs. But other apparel must be considered besides the bridal outfits and we must needs turn to the tailor-made costumes. As a general statement we would say that the skirts are shorter and the coats are longer, although with the long coat a short skirt does not look well. The skirt that just touches the ground is permissible, and long princess coats in cloth are made just above the ankles. Then on the other hand the half-length coat is equally popular. Checks are popular, and are used extensively by leading tailors in rather somber mixtures that lend themselves admirably to the braiding which is such a marked feature of the Viennese tailor-made. Another delightful trimming, and one that is gladly welcomed with the first touch of autumn, is velvet. Velvet collars are used even on riding habits, and some of the smartest cloth dresses are strapped with it. The coming of autumn has brought with it a revival of satin trimmed with cloth, and very noticeable in a crowd is an evening gown of copper-colored satin trimmed with gold and shaded embroideries, with an introduction of real face at the deco age and long lace sleeves. I am quite certain that sleeves will change very much in evening dress, and their importance cannot be overestimated, for upon them very often depends the success of a frock. The picture-sleeve is always pretty in the picture frock for country house wear, but the best dinner gowns show but little sleeve. I think one of the most becoming sleeves is the trelliswork of chenille, studded, perhaps, with jet, and edged with a fringe. The shape of the arm is very often ruined by an ill-fitting sleeve. The manipulation of the sleeve, therefore, should receive most careful attention. No woman looks well dressed unless she knows how to put on her clothes; the best dressmaker in the world cannot invest the wearer with the meaning of the gown. As to hats, I should like to point out one or two important changes which have taken place in the millinery world since last season. We have completely done away with hat brims which are longer at the back than the front, and we no longer hide the back of our necks! Cloche hats—even those with a large head—are still very fashionable, but they are now exaggerated in outline and they are worn on the head. And then we are becoming very enthusiastic over the A Design for an Evening Gown. cavailor hat, turned up at one side and trimmed with handsome feathers or with immense clusters of flowers. Black taffeta hats bound with black silk braid are possessed of much charm. In this connection the braid is always wide and rather coarse in texture; it forms an important blinding for the cloche brim and is the best of taste with tailor-made costumes.

Green and Peter Brooks were arraigned in police court last week, Thursday, charged with having illegally registered in ward 13. Both were charged with being over to the grand jury under bond of $300. Secretary Haas, of the board of elections, charges that Green registered in ward 13, precinct G, under the name of Wm. Cummings, and a few days later secured a marriage license under the name of Wm. Green. He also registered in precinct B, ward 13, and never to Haas. A Canadian and has never been naturalized. Revs. Maxwell's and Sissle's double political somersault into the Burton camp was at a most fortunate (for them) moment—just at the time of Rev. Dr. Prince's and Bailey's exposure of George Myers' attempt to boodle them. They have greatly injured their standing with the masses of our people in this community. The other nine ministers who signed the questions submitted to Candidate Burton stood firm for the tight throughout the campaign, some like me, the contrary not withstanding. The other four of the members of their churches stood by them and still stand by them as they should, regardless of all influence to the contrary in and out of their organizations. The statements made during the campaign that Congressman Burton "worked hard" to secure the appointment of auditor of the war department under President McKinley for the editor of The Gazette; that representative Parham, while a member of the legislature, ever "unmercifully composed music, after some had written it," (an impossibility); that the editor of The Gazette "has opposed every colored man nominated on the republican ticket in Cuyahoga county, and everybody he has opposed has been triumphantly elected" (Tom Fleming for instance); and that he said "the American flag was nothing more, and are a few of the miserable and malicious publications during the last few weeks in the subsidized Cleveland "Toilet-paper" which is supposedly edited by (Brascher) the superintendent of Cory chapel Sunday school, formerly a dirty-disk carrier in the Chamber of Commerce building dining room. The thick-lipped and long-eared animal sought to distract the editor of The campaign but failed, because the editor had important things to do and as a result no time to waste in paying attention 'to the harmless braying of a long-eared and ebony-hued ass. Tom Fleming and those poor misguided Negroes who supported him for councilman-at-large are still of the belief that he had some chance to win—that is, to be elected. It shows how thoroughly obtuse as well as ignorant of the real political situation in this country, some people can be. It was never the case by a political Crawford that Tom Fleming's candidacy should be anything more than a toll for Negro votes. At first, when it was thought that an Afro-American would be an independent republican candidate for the council in the Twelfth ward, "Bill" conceived the idea of Fleming's candidacy, so that he would urge our men in the Twelfth ward to urge him in the Twelfth ward, and not for him, in the interest of Hirstus' candidacy of course. Brown, as an independent republican candidate in the Twelfth ward, would have had vastly more chance of election than Fleming, and the member or members of the race who conspired and others (white) to euchre him and his republicanism to his candidacy in the interest of Hirstus, and presumably Fleming, were only of poor, deluded Negroes and designing and prejudiced, as well as unscrupulous, white politicians. We commend the above to the consideration of the careful and thoughtful, that they at least may know how "Boss" Crawford fooled many of the Negroes, the Twelfth ward—not all, because some of us saw through it all early in the day, so we could to save the others who fell into "Boss" Bill's trap, loaded with campaign "booble," jolly and promises of office.

Shy One Fare. Inspector Johnson, of the Columbus Railway company, tells the following story of one of his new conductors: The inspector had boarded a car on one of the East Side lines and glancing at the register, noticed that there were nine passengers on and only eight fares. He touched the conductor on the shoulder, a green man from the country, and said: "You are shy one fare. There are nine people on the car and only eight fares collected." "By gosh," said the conductor, "that's right," and hastily grabbing the bell cord, he stopped the car and yelling at the passengers ordered one of them to "git off."—Columbus Desatch. BABY'S ECZEMA GREW WORSE. Hospitals and Doctors Could Not Re lieve Him—But Cuticura Remedies a Speedy, Permanent Cure. "Eczema appeared when our baby was three months old. We applied to several doctors and hospitals, each of which gave us something different every time, but nothing brought relief. At last, one of our friends recommended to us Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. A few days afterwards improvement could be noted. Since then we have used nothing but Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, and now the baby is six months old and is quite cured. All that we used was one cake of Cuticura Soap and two boxes Cuticura Ointment, costing in all $1.25. C. F. Kara, 343 East 65th Street, New York, March 30, 1906." THE FACULTIES OF JUSTICE. Blind, Perhaps, But No Reasonable Proof of Deafness Also. Judge Harlan, who lives up on the hill, was a passenger on a Fourteenth street car the other day and was seated next to a couple of clerks who were deeply interested in some discussion, which caused one of them to raise his voice to quite a high pitch, says the Washington Star. This appeared to make the other man rather cautious, as he glanced warily around to see if any one was listening to the talk of his friend. At this moment he discovered the presence of the dignified justice and turning hastily to his loud-talking comrade, he said: "For heaven's sake, lower your voice; you may have heard that justice is blind but that doesn't necessarily mean that it's deaf also." Whether Judge Harlan heard the remark it is impossible to state, yet, all the same, a calm smile fitted over his face at the conclusion of the young fellow's admonition to his friend. Mary Knew Little Mary's father had been teaching her to walk properly. "Walk slowly and turn out your toes," he admonished her. While she was undergoing this teaching she attended Sunday school one day. The golden text was, "Teach me to walk honestly." After reciting it several times, the teacher asked: "Who knows what that means?" "I do," replied little Mary. "Walk slowly and turn out your toes." PLEASANT SUMMER. Right Food the Cause. A Wis. woman says: "I was run down and weak, troubled with nervousness and headache for the last six years. The least excitement would make me nervous and cause severe headache. "This summer I have been eating Grape-Nuts regularly and feel better than for the six past years." "I am not troubled with headache and nervousness, and weigh more than I ever have before in my life. I gained 5 lbs. in one week." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read the book, "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. "There's a Reason." THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1907. Our Pattern Department 6885 5931 Patterns Nos. 5885 and 5931.—The prune shades in the new silky broad-cloths are exceedingly beautiful this season, and make the most attractive costumes. Here is one that displays that material to perfection. The waist is in the popular over-bluese style and is made with deep pleats that extend over the shoulders. Wide revers contribute to the broad-shouldered effect, they are stitched underneath the pleat and fall gracefully over the under-sleeve of net. The skirt is a graceful five-gore model, laid in box-pleats at each of the side seams, that are stitched flat over the hips and allowed to fall free from that point after being carefully pressed to the lower edge. Box-pleats are also laid in at the lower part, and add considerably to the smart effect although they may be omitted if desired. Buttons and braid are being extensively used this season, but any preferred mode of decoration may be adopted. Broad-cloth, taffeta, voile and other seasonable fabrics are suggested for reproduction. For 36 inches bust measure one and three-eighths yards of 44-inch material will be required for the waist and five and one-quarter yards for the skirt.

New Zealand, which has been created a dominion, was first discovered by Tasman, the Dutch navigator, in 1642, but it was hardly known prior to the visits of Capt. Cook, who, in 1769 and subsequent years, sailed round the islands, and surveyed the coasts. The first European settlement there dates from 1814, and the first systematic colonization from 1838. In 1840 England proclaimed her dominion over the islands. In 1852 a constitutional form of government was established. Man's Peculiarity. Man, queer creature!

Chicago Record-Herald. WHEN MONEY WAS SCARCE. Practically Unobtainable During Period of Missouri's History. "However scarce money may be at times at the present," said an old Missourian, "the oldest inhabitants will recall 'hen it was almost unobtainable and other commodities had to be used as media of exchange. The wolf's scalp was worth a dollar because it was a state bounty upon the death of a wolf, and venison hams and deer skins also had a purchasing value. Skins of the fur bearers were likewise abundant and valuable. When the first sheriff of Audrain county, in 1837, went to Jefferson City to deliver the county revenue, he met an old friend on the way who, needing money, wanted to borrow the actual coin part of the county's revenue. The good-hearted sheriff lent it to him and went on to the capital and delivered only the scalps. By the time of the next settlement the loan was repaid and the sheriff made his next settlement complete. No note or other obligation than the mere word was given."—Columbia Herald. The Peaceful Cow She was even more afraid of cows than most girls, so when she spied a plaid animal recumbent under a tree, peacefully chewing its cut, she at first refused to go through the pasture at all. Her husband calmed her fears to some extent, and they started by, when the cow slowly commenced to get up, hind legs first, as they always do. At this the little lady shrieked with terror, and said: "Oh, Bob, hurry, hurry, he is getting ready to spring at us!"—Harper's Magazine. Restricted Choice. "The people and the corporations," said Senator La Follette the other day, "remind me of a woman and her little boy. There was a very large chicken and a very small duck on the table and the woman, pausing with the carving knife raised, said: 'Johnny, which will you take, chicken or duck?' 'Duck,' piped Johnny. But the mother shook her head. 'No, Johnny,' she said in a firm, yet kindly voice, 'you can't have duck, my dear. Take your choice, darling, take your choice, but you can't have duck.'" TO PRETENDERS A Wholesome Word for Guidance. Just a word to you, "Collier's" and other glaring examples of Modern Yellow Journalism and Cigarettes. Environment gives you a view-point from which it is difficult to understand that some people even nowadays act from motives of old fashioned honesty. There are honest makers of foods and healthful beverages and there are honest people who use them. Perhaps you are trained to believe there is no honesty in this world. There is, although you may not be of a kind to understand it. Some of you have been trained in a sorry class of pretenders, but your training does not taint the old fashioned person trained without knowledge of pretense and deceit. These letters came to us absolutely without solicitation. We have a great many thousand from people who have been helped or entirely healed by following the suggestions to quit the food or drink which may be causing the physical complaints and change to Postum Coffee or Grape-Nuts food. You are not intelligent enough to know the technical reasons why the change makes a change in the cells of the body. Your knowledge, or lack of knowledge, makes not the slightest difference in the facts. You can print from old and worn plates all the cheap books your presses will produce and sell them as best you can, but such acts and your "learned" editorials are but commercial, and seek only "dollars" and much by pretence. When you branch out into food values you become only ridiculous. Stick to what you know. The field may be small but it is safe.

I am personally acquainted with this lady, and know that she has no object in writing, other than to do good. Brooklyn, N. Y., Oct. 1, 1907. Dear Mr. Pritchard: Noticing Rostum Food Coffee advertised each week in your reliable paper, I concluded to try it, and feeling it a duty towards those who may have suffered as I have from indigestion, desire to state what wonderful benefit I have received from Postum although using only a short time, and not do. I alone realize and appreciate its good effects, but friends remark, "How much I have improved and how well I look", and I tell the facts about Postum every time, for since using it I have pot had one attack of indigestion. It is invigorating, healthful; does not affect the nerves as ordinary coffee, and if properly made, a most delicious drink. Although I have not had much faith in general advertising, yet, finding Postum has done so much better for me than I expected I am more inclined to "Prove all things, hold fast that which is good." I am so thankful for good health that I want it known what a blessing Postum has been to me. You may use these few lines as an ad. if you so desire and my name also. 275 McDonough St., Brooklyn.

Mrs. Anna Beebe, River and Monroe Sts., Anoka, Minn., says: "I had to sit in a chair day after day unable to move about on account of rheumatic pains in my back, hips and legs. I was short of breath and my heart would flutter after the least exertion. I had dizzy spells and bearing sit in a chair day after day unable to move about on account of rheumatic pains in my back, hips and legs. I was short of breath and my heart would flutter after the least occasion. I had dizzy and spells and down pains and the kidney secretion were much disordered.

A rather gynical joke has been recently credited to Senator Platt. The senator, on his last visit to the Manhattan Beach hotel, allowed a pretty little girl, a western millionaire's daughter, to be presented to him. The little girl, in the course of one of her many chats with the aged statesman, said: "Tell me, won't you, cenator, what political economy is?" "Political economy, my dear child," Senator Platt is said to have replied, "is the art of never buying more votes than you actually need." DON'T BANISH THE CONSUMPTIVE, SAYS DR. HOFF Famous Consumptive Expert Urges Cure at the Fireside. "Is the "Great White Plague" at last to be ended? The scientific world has been watching with great interest the remarkable success of Dr. Adolph Hoff, of the Faculty of the University of Vienna, in the treatment of consumption and asthma. The patients treated were mostly of the poorer class who inhabit small and badly ventilated damp rooms, too cold in winter, and too hot in summer. Dr. Hoff says: "Had such patients the benefit of improved conditions it would not be surprising, but my patients all stay in their own surroundings, and when a cure is affected it is to be attributed to my recipe only." To further the work of Dr. Hoff, the American Bureau has been established at No. 49 Third avenue, New York, and on application a book on exercise, diet and rational treatment will be sent free to all sufferers from asthma and consumption. Mexico's Indian Women The beauty of Indian women is one of the charms of Mexico. In the capital, where the Indian has degenerated through poverty and mental service it is less to be remarked than in the smaller towns and in the country. But the beautiful faces one takes in memory away from Mexico are those of Indian women. Fine eyes are universal, and, what one hardly expects, the features, according to Caucasian standards — broad brows, straight noses, well-formed mouths and chins full but not gross or heavy. The expression is very generally intelligent, and often one is struck, both in Indian men and women, with the nobility and refinement of the countenance. One frequently sees types among the peons that seem to belong to some highly civilized ancient caste — an Egyptian priest of royal blood, a Roman centurian, an Aztec emperor. The women are gently lovely where they are beautiful, and the men at their best in carriage, in manners and in countenance are strikingly like the very advanced product of civilization. —Modern Mexico. $100 Reward. $100.

"It is a curious thing," said a prominent lecturer recently, "how some books have a strong radiating personality, so that you feel like saying 'Howdy' every time you come across them. Last Christmas I visited friends back at the old home on the farm. When the supper dishes had been put away, the chores done and the evening lamp lighted we gathered beside the organ for a good old fashioned 'sing'. On the center table were strenued the Christmas remembrances taken from Christmas tree on the evening before. Glancing over them I suddenly exclaimed 'Hello! my good friend, Hello!' and as the others looked up with surprise, I picked up a copy of 'Heart Throbs' and read to them from its pages the 'piece!' I spoke in school 40 years ago. "That was enough to set in motion the friendly entertaining spirit of Heart Throbs, and the music was forgotten as we took turns reading the humorous and pathetic bits of prose and verse that have been preserved in this wonderful volume. Some books have great literary value, some have historical significance, but Heart Throbs is the only book I know that slaps you on the back in a friendly sort of way, suiting itself to your moods and proving faithful to every emotion. Next to my love of the Bible I love Heart Throbs. It is the most notable book of the times." Martins' Revenge. A correspondent tells the story of two house martins' nests built against an attic window of a farm, to which the birds came for several successive years. Last spring, however, before they arrived, a sparrow took up her abode in one of the nests. Shortly after the martins returned as usual, and one day the farm people noticed that the hole of the nest which the sparrow occupied had been blocked up. Next morning a boy climbed up to ascertain the meaning of this, and not finding any outlet broke away part of the nest, to find the poor little sparrow dead on her eggs. The house martins had walled her up for daring to take possession of their house.—Country Life. A. Slight Difference "My dear," said a gentleman to his wife, "where did all those books on astronomy on the library table come from? They are not ours." "A pleasant little surprise for you," responded the lady. "You know, you said this morning that we ought to study astronomy, so I went to a book store and bought everything I could find on the subject." It was some minutes before he spoke. "My dear," he then said, slowly, his voice husky with emotion. "I never said we must study astronomy. I said we must study economy."
