WITH THE GIBSON POINT FOR THE DEMURE MAIDEN. SHEER blouses and sheath gowns have been jokingly called "back to nature" garments, but perhaps there is some truth in the name. Surely there is a trend toward unadorned simplicity. We have the tight-fitting gown, the one piece dress, the sandal fad, the old-fashioned sun hat and now the comfortable, cool and artistic Byron collar. We have the plain fitted, and the bones under the cars serve to preserve the unbroken line of the neck and shoulder. One of the beauties of low neck is that it reveals the curve from the car to the top of the shoulder, and when a high collar is properly fitted and properly boned the curve is easily discovered. The ruche around the top merely serves to soften the line of the face. It does not in any way break the beautiful line, though it would were the collar a little low. The collars of handkerchief linen and bits of precious lace are also used only for informal occasions; with them it is allowable to wear a little bow made of lace or fine linen. Handkerchiefs make charming collars and bows of this type, particularly when combined with baby Irish or real valenciennes edging. Hand embroidery, too, turns a plain linen collar into a thing of beauty, and many of the prettiest are decorated with English eyelet work. With these one may wear a little linen bow, also embroidered in eyelet. One beauty of the low collar is that it is the most becoming style of neckwear for the younger girl, the maiden who is just at the awkward age. For her the high collar is inappropriate, and the band at the top of the dress is not a very attractive finish. She may, therefore, appropriately wear a broad low collar, whether it be of plain linen or embroidery. What a charming school dress may be made of blue serge—waist and armlet on plain, the neck finished only with a plain stiff linen Eton collar and black embroidery on the sleeve. It seems odd that in one season there should be such a difference of style—only the very high and the very low collar are really the fashion. The half-way, medium-height collar has no place at all in the present scheme of things. But, after all, the high collar suits the woman with the long neck, the low one suits her with the short neck, while the average woman may wear either that appears to her fancy. As usual, Dame Fashion seems to have a reason. IN UNION THERE'S STRUGGLE WITH THE GIBSON POINT FOR DEPT. MAID SHEER blouses and sheath gowns have "ture" garments, but perhaps there is a trend toward unadorned gown, the one piece dress, the sand now the comfortable, cool and artistic B. The "Gibson" collar, with its artificially fitted, and the horse under the carriage the neck and shoulder. One of the heavier curve from the ear to the top of the shirt, slightly fitted and properly boned the curved top merely serves to soften any way break the beautiful line, thou lower. The collars of handkerchief linen are only for informal occasions; with them made of lace or the linen. Handkerchiefs make charming collar when combined with baby Irish or real w. Hand embroidery, too, turns a plain and many of the prettiest are decorate these one may wear a little linen bow. One beauty of the low collar is that wear for the younger girl, the maiden w. her the high collar is inappropriate, and not a very attractive finish. She may, low collar, whether it be of plain linen or What a charming school dress man skirt, quite the horse under the carriage and black four-in-hand tie! It is girlish. It seems odd that in one season the only the very high and the very low cow way, medium-height collar has no place But, after all, the high collar suits the woman her with the short neck, while the appeals to her fancy. As usual, Dame F. BODICE FOR VOILE DRESS. Here is a pretty bodice suitable to be copied in volle or any thin material; it is made on a tight-fitting line of sateen, which is fastened at the back, the trimming of fillet gulpure of the color of the material is bound each side with silk; a strip of finely-tucked silk is carried from the waist back and front over the shoulders. The puffed sleeves are gathered into a band of silk-bound gulpure. Materials required: 2 yards 46 inches wide, 1 yard silk, $3\frac{1}{2}$ yards trimming, $1\frac{1}{2}$ yards sateen. The Lamp Shade Hat. A new hat which has just arrived from Paris is called the lamp shade. It is immense. It has a huge brim that slopes down over the head at almost the angle of a lamp shade. At the top of the crown is an im mense frill of lace or plaited tulle. the number of faces of a plane. The other new hat to make its appearance is called the Bottlecill. It is not necessary to explain where this not its name. The only question is, will it be a success? Fancy Broadcloths Chiffon broadcloth appears in all the new colorings and of a lightness and softness even surpassing that achieved by the manufacturers last year. Fancy broadcloths in one-tone colorings and woven satin or chevron stripes are numerous. American Register, London. THE GAZETTE SERGE FOR SCHOOL FROCKS. Is Rapidly Supereding All Other Materials in Popularity. It looks as though serges would take the place of almost all other materials for those dressy little frocks that children wear to school. The patterns are good, too, being in bumper styles, with outlines made with piping, and the underwalst of a soft material in like color with the sleeves trimmed with anchors or pretty emblems suitable for such purposes. One dark blue serge dress was made plain with a plaited skirt, each plait about two inches wide at the waist line, gradually broadening at the hem. The jumper waist was also plaited in similar style and made with wide armholes, outlined with a narrow band of woolen braid in a brick-red tone. The V-shaped yoke was fashioned in the same manner. However, the yoke had a heading about $2\frac{1}{2}$ inches wide, cut the shape of the yoke and outlined on each side with braid; the dress fastened with small brick-red buttons. Hand Embroidery on Blouse Hand embroidery is not positively necessary as a means of introducing color in a blouse, although a little hand-work of this sort is very desirable. Very fine and dainty embroideryers of batiste, with embroidered vines or dot patterns in color, are to be had, and can be introduced as trimming in combination with a little valenciennes or cluyy lace in a blouse of sheer white fabric. White mull frills, scalloped in color, are also good in the finer machine-made embroideryers. Plaited Tulle For mild-season wear, and later on for theater and restaurant wear, is the huge toque of plaited tulle. Large as it is, it is only half as large as the great sailor hat. It has a mob crown, which is rather low, as mob crowns go, and has a tiny brim laid in small box-plaits, the crown wrapped about with black or colored satin. For other trimming there is added a single black gauze rose, with a center of gilt beads or rhinestones. Handkerchief Picture Frame Handkerchief Picture Frame. A neat little frame for a picture is made with a handkerchief. It is first stiffly laundered. All points are directed toward the center and ironed. The four points are then turned back, just reaching the edge. They are pressed and held in place with baby-ribbon rosettes. This leaves a small square for the picture. Hang it diamond shape on the wall. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. ALMOST A RIOT AND IN A CHURCH ALMOST A RIOT AND IN A CHURCH BECAUSE OF AN ATTACK ON "THE BLACK BATTALION" BY A GEORGIAN. FORAKER AND BRYAN CHEERED Booker's Editor Also Almost Mobbled —The League Attacks Taft—Reid's Case Now in the United States New York City—Before the arrival of Gov. Hughes at Bethel A. M. E. church in his tour last week Thursday night the audience, largely composed of Afro-Americans, was thrown into confusion bordering on riot by the statement of Attorney Henry Lincoln Johnson of Atlanta that he believed the soldiers did "shoe up" in the crowd, large squad of police and the prompt arrival of the reserves under Capt. Kane prevented the enraged audience from throwing Johnson out of the pulpit. As it was, they hooted him, told him to shut up and go back down to Georgia, while several jumped up and ran down the alley to the door, shouting that they would not stay there and slam them to such falsehoods. When Clinton was the falsehoods speaker was still unable to make himself heard for the cries of "Pu him out!" and the hisses which came from every part of the room, upstairs and down. The police were stationed in the alleyes only a few feet apart until there were 20 men in uniform ready to clear the house of "worship" if it became necessary. Many times patrol had to move angry men back to the room, while writing for Gov. Hughes, ex-Gov. P. B. S. Pinchback, formerly of Louisiana, who presided at the invitation of the Rev. R. C. Ransom, pastor of the church, who on last Sunday declared that he told "cold" toward Gov. Hughes, introduced Mr. Johnson as a southern Negro who could tell the Negroes of New York what their brethren thought Mason and Dixon's line would suffer. He also along for a while on the convict system in the south. Then he touched off the bomb. "Abraham Lincoln announced the measures of the emancipation," said he, "and that great man, Benjamin Harrison, put them into effect. How." Foraker" shouted some one in the audience. The house was instantly in an uproar. "Foraker! Foraker! Foraker!" shouted hundreds in chorus. "I yield to no one in my admiration for the senior senator from Ohio," said Mr. Johnson when there was a chance for him to make himself heard. "What about Brownville?" shouted some one in the audience, who it developed afterward, was one of probably 50 or 100 Democrats present. "Do you want to know what I think about Brownville?" asked Johnson. "Yes, yes," came from every part of the room. "I want to know what I think of the Brownville affair." went on the speaker, leaning far over the pulpit and shaking his finger at the first interrogator, "I tell you. I believe the soldiers 'shot up' that town. Then the turmoll began and the reserves were sent for a hurry. When order was fully restored by the piece of Johnson I take. "I listen to that we are not so far apart. I believe that the soldiers 'shot up' Brownville, but I also believe that they did just what they ought to have done, for they were spit upon and shamefully treated by the people of Brownville, and I would not have represented such results. I don't believe, however, that the evidence showed that they shot up the town, and I therefore don't believe they ought to have been dismissed." Fred R. Moore, editor of Booker Washington's New York Age, following Johnson created almost as much power as he could, by saying that no self-respecting Negro would vote the Democratic ticket. "Hurry for Bryan," shouted an Afro-American Democrat, and there was hearty response. Moore repeated his statement, and this and many other assertions were hissed by his audience. Capt. Kane's refusal then to let any one ask any more questions suppressed the disorder. Providence, R. I. The fifth annual meeting of the New England Suffrage league was held here on October 5. It is an organization of Afro-American veterans formed to advance the political and social condition of the race. The call for the meeting included the following attack on Judge Taft and President Roosevelt: "A race he behold a Republican president had elected, to official message prescribe a special brand of education, characterize its men as rapists of white women, denounce those who demanded simply trial of soldiers before conviction as concealers of criminals of the race. It has witnessed the forcing of the nomination through the patronage by this president of his war secretary and the unseating of all the southern delegates in the elimination of the colored man in the south from Republican politics, to accomplish this. "So now we have as Republican nominee for the presidency the dictated choice of this Negrophobe president, a man who, as war secretary, upheld in every particular this civil lynching of 187 colored soldiers; a man who has repeatedly praised southern disfrianchment, dubbing us 'political children' until for suffrage, openly declaring for the policy of the war, southern nullification, a man just unjustified have been the chief actor in the scheme to drive from the senate its only Charles Sumner, Joseph B. For aker, for demanding trial and proof of guilt before punishment of colored soldiers. "Finally, we face the spectacle of the candidate blacklisting in cowardly fashion the one great outspoken friend of equal rights for colored Americans on the charges of the most notorious demagogue and character-assassin in America, in America, in this case assassin from the White House in league with W. R. Heatr, makes onslaught upon our champion, maligning the motives of the defense of our untried soldiers." Washington, D. C.—The case of Oacar W. Reid, one of the members of "The Black Battalion," discharged without honor by the president and Taft on account of the alleged Brownville "attray," was docked in the supreme court of the United States on October 1, Reid brought the suit for the former district of New York to compel the mayor to him of his salary from the date of his discharge until the termination of his enlistment, alleging as a basis for the suit that the government was under contract with him for the entire term of his enlistment. The decision was rendered by Judge Hough, and was adverse to Reid. It appealed to the court of the district was subject to termination at the will of the government, and Judge Hough declared that the president was "proper authority" for the expression of that will. The case will be heard at an early day in the approaching term of the supreme court. The court, as the opinion prevails, as the opinion prevails that the president had neither the legal nor constitutional right to dismiss the soldiers. "HOT ONES" FOR "TEDDY." Mr. Roosevelt is greatly scandalized by Senator Foraker's unseemly relations with the Standard Oil Co.; but what if Foraker had been a supporter of "my policies" instead of an opponent of "my policies"? Would the president have promptly repudiated his own policies? Would the executive charity been thrown over Joseph Benson Foraker that was once thrown over Paul Morton after that gentleman had been accused of granting rebates? - New York World. AMERICAN KISHINEFFS. On Monday, October 5, as we are informed by Washington papers, Theodore Rocsevelt, president of the American republic, attended the opening of the theatrical season, the first play given being one by the Jewish dramatist, Israel Zangwill, who chose for his hero, Israel Russian who had escaped from the Kishineh horrors and taken refuge in the United States. The play we may fairly assume, arched over the stage, was the presidee, and indignation at those who instigated it. Justly so. The writer of these lines is a little curious to know whether the very near-lying comparisons of the butchery of Atlanta, Ga., U. S. A., and the very recent atrocities of Springfield, Ill., also U. S. A., arose in the minds of the fashionable audience in the capital of the republic, and whether some strange thoughts and feelings, not of a kind to insinuate them or him, were present in the audience, Mr. President more particularly. Justice, like charity and humanity, to be genuine, must commence at home. Whitened sepulchres are condemned of God, as Jesus taught us. JACOB EGBERTH (white). Booker Washington Worth $400. Perhaps the most interesting face that Mr. Burroughs told, was that he was new in possession of an inventor of his grandfather's estate in which the names of all his slaves and their different values are assessed. James Burroughs, the grandfather, died about 1800. He went on to lecture through the court that this appraisement of his property took place. It is a very interesting fact that Parker T. Washington, upon whom Harvard university recently conferred the honorary degree of master of education and to his country, was valued at that time at something like $400—Tuskegee (Ala.) Student. To Teach German. Cincinnati, O.—Showing remarkable aptitude for the German language, Margaret Davis, a young Afro-American girl, has been sent to the German-American Teachers' seminary, in Milwaukee. Wis., to perfect herself for teaching German in the Afro-American public schools of Cincinnati. Prof. H. Frick, supervisor of German in the local schools, has observed the progress of Miss Davis with much satire. She has also served forts primarily that arrangements were completed for her to go to Milwaukee. SENATOR JOSEPH BENSON FORAKER On Roosevelt, Taft and "Brownsville"—Do Not Vote for Taft. And now comes the president and publishes Judge Taft's letter containing his unfortunate reference to this unfortunate case. What does he mean? Does anybody imagine that the president is unable to see that he is rubbing (irriataing) a sore when he should have brought a plaster? Does he imagine, or can anybody suppose that the Republican colored voters of this country can be brought to the support of Judge Taft by parading in these closing days of the campaign Judge Taft's belittling of their chief grievance by mentioning it as "an incidental matter"? Can it be possible that the president wants to defeat Judge Taft? That cannot be, and yet he could hardly do any other one thing better calculated to make a self-respecting Negro vote against Judge Taft. If in making this defense, * * * * I shall always feel that those who have no consideration for me, my family or good name, but would gloatingly rejoice if they could accomplish the shame and humiliation they have attempted are not entitled to any consideration at my hands and that my duty to the party should be subordinated to duty to my family and the good name I have striven to make that I may leave it to them as their heritage, more priceless in their estimation than anything else within my power to give them.

IN UNION THERE IS STRONG A RANK INSULT FROM ROOSEVELT HE AND TAFT SEEK TO MAKE A SCAPEGOAT OF SENATOR FORAKER. ONE HALF WILL VOTE FOR BRYAN Says Rev. Dr. W. O. Emory of Georgia "Lily Whitestam" Endorsed by Roosevelt and Taft and the Recent National Republican Convention at Chicago. Cincinnati, O.—Rev. W. O. Emory, a prominent Afro-American of Macon, Ga., who attended the convention of the National League of Republican Clubs, and who as a delegate to the Chicago national convention seconded the nomination of Senator Foraker for the presidency, gave out a statement while here defending Senator Foraker's attitude in the Brownsville affair, and denouncing the attitude taken by President Roosevelt in his statement, relative to the Brownsville matter and the senator. Dr. Emory said, "I am hardly in condition to speak of Mr. Taft's campaign in the light of President Roosevelt's public letter relative to "Brownsville," Senator Foraker and the Negro. The president ought to know that the publication of Mr. Taft's letter would do the work of the senator. The Negroes of the country are not in that frame of mind that will stand punching and nagging. "Now, in view of the disfranchisement that threatens the Negro in Georgia and other unfavorable conditions that await my race, I feel much embarrassed at the situation these new developments create. All decent Negro leaders in Georgia are advising the race to vote for Joseph M. Brown, a former governor of Georgia, the last Democratic primary. I believe that fully half of the Negroes of the country will vote for Bryan, unless a different attitude is assumed toward the Negro by the present management of the Republican campaign. It is not wise when Mr. Taft and the president are seeking southern friendship and planning to break up the solid south and encouraging "lily" whites that as encouraged in the national convention, the significant millions of Negroes living in the southern states should vote against the interest of his white neighbor at his door. "The party leaders make a mistake when they hold Mr. Foraker responsible to any degree whatever for the attitude taken by the colored people in the Brownville matter. What are the facts? The Negroes had no idea matter in the general Foraker to look after this matter in the general beginning thought of Senators Crane or Spooner. Not until religious bodies of Negro bishops, college presidents, Baptist conventions, the Negro press and other organizations petitioned congressmen and senators in this matter, who referred them to Senator Foraker, did he take up their duties." "Mr. Foraker is now being made the scapegoat of venom, hate and prejudice from his own party leaders because he has dared to speak out for this black race that has not a representative in the congress of this nation. Let us quote our Republican president: "The entire agitation over Brownville was in large part not a genuine agitation on behalf of the colored men at all." "Does President Roosevelt think that Negro bishops, college presidents, preachers, teachers and other honest Negro organizations were either insincere or so ignorant that they did not know when the common decency of the race had been stiffened or allowed to be ignored, not the Negro race far enough removed from wholesale ignorance and deprivacy to know when they have been insulted, unless white men tell them? Whatever may have been the motive of Senator Foraker (and his whole course in the matter shows nothing but self-sacrifice and devotion, conscientious liberty) the same as regard the soldiers remain the same. The Negro's part in the present election cannot be interest in the tariff or guarantee bank deposits or corporate wealth, but how he shall be elevated, religiously, morally, intellectually, and to have a 'square deal' in earning an honest livelihood at living wages. As I see it, someone going to be going to be disappointed if something isn't done very specifically to clear up matters as respects the Negro." society met at Mrs. Charles Brown's Friday evening.—Miss Mary Cooper of Smithfield was here recently.—Mr. Jones of Cadiz was here Wednesday.—Mr. Dan Bolden, who visited his brother in Cadiz last week, and Mr. George Viney went to Smithfield Thursday.—Mr. Iacob Imlami was visited in Madrid.—Mr. Henry Carey went to Pittsburgh Sunday.—Mr. Clarence Brown has returned from Wellsville and East Liverpool.

SMITH. Editor and Proprietor THE GAZETTE. Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio Member Ohio Legislature, 1894 to 1894 1896 to 1894 1890 to 1892 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. Dr. W. O. Emory is right—we are not going to stand Roosevelt and Taft's contemptible insults to the race and Senator Foraker, as well as their Brownsville injury. We are not their football for the south and they will find it out to their sorrow on election day. The member of the national Democratic executive committee by the name of Atwood, who endorsed disfranchisement, according to a number of our contemporaries, is simply doing what the Hon. W. H. Taft did in a speech delivered at Greensboro, N. C., in July, 1908. Vice Presidential Candidate Sherman was recently hissed, hooted and "cat-called" in Bethel A. M. E. church, Chicago, and later Attorney H. L. Johnson of Atlanta, Ga., was given the same treatment in Bethel A. M. E. church, New York City, all because of the Brownville "incident." What is going to be "handed" Taft on election day? At the opening of the Republican campaign at Muskegee, Oklahoma, in Hinton theater last month, not an Afro-American was permitted to sit on the stage or on the first floor of the theater. All were restricted to a gallery by the Taft "illy-white" of that state. The Langston (Okla.) Western Age, a race publication, says our professional men and others of Oklahoma were and are still "furious" as a result of their outrageous mistreatment. The old stereotyped lie, which is published regularly every four years during national campaigns by Republicans, is being featured these days. It states that the Republican president, holding office at the time of the publication, has appointed more Negroes to office than any other president in the history of the country. This time the lie is a bigger one than usual, for the very good reason that President Roosevelt has appointed Afro-Americans to office and boasted of it in a letter to Editor Clark Howell of the Atlanta (GA.) Constitution, than any other Republican president. Nearly all of those members of the race holding federal positions, whose names appear upon the list being published these days in certain race papers, presumably in the interest of Taft, the president's human phonograph and candidate, secured their positions as the result of civil service examinations, and are in nowise obligated to President Roosevelt or Taft, for the same. "KICKING LIKE BAY STEERS." How the truth does hurt sometimes, and how cowardly and service Negroes and designing white rascals are made to wince under its stinging lash, is splendently illustrated in the following communication from one of our representatives, a loyal manly and brave member of the race: De Soto, Mo., Aug 8, 1998. Editor Gazette. —Dear Sir; Some of the Colored Republicans are kicking like a "bay steer" because I am selling the paper here, and some of the white Republicicans are doing likewise. They say you are bought by the Democrat to make a fight against me.

HENRY LEE Will Make Affidavit, With Pleasure. Cleveland, O., Oct. 9, 1998. Mr. Henry Lee, Dear Sir, Your letter just received. Please say to all, white and black allike, Republican or other party, who say that any individual or individuals, party or parties, or any one or more or anything else have purchased or can purchase the support of The Gazette or myself, that they lie maliciously and know it when they do so if they have read my paper or know anything of it or me personally. My record for more than 25 years in the newspaper business and nearly, if not quite as many, in public life, is such that no honest and honorable person, in this section of the country, or wherever either my paper or myself are known, ever dares to insulate such, let alone bring the charges openly. Then, too, the falsity of such a charge is proved by every issue of my paper. We are not supporting the candidates of either or any party, but are fighting known enemies of the race. I have only urged our people to refrain from supporting Tatt. Whom they vote for, if indeed they vote at all is A MATTER FOR THEM TO DETERMINE. The columns of The Gazette have been opened to its patrons and readers for THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1908. full and free expressions along the line of the policy of the paper, indicated in the immediate preceding sentences. Stand your ground and fight! just as The Gazette is doing. We are but doing our duty to ourselves, our families and the race. That is paramount to all else in this political campaign as far as the honorable and loyal Afro-American is concerned. You are at liberty to show this letter to whomever you please. Sincerely The editor of The Gazette stands ready to make affidavit, as indicated in Mr. Lee's letter, at any time, for any reputable and honorable person who may ask it and will do so in a proper spirit. We have never permitted this paper or ourselves to get down to the plane of the BOODLER, as some of our contemporaries, supporting Taft and Sherman, have, be he said to their everlasting shame and dishonor; nor will we ever do so. The "lightning changes" of a number of loudmouthed individuals and papers of color, since the beginning of the Taft campaign for the nomination and particularly since the national convention at Chicago which is alleged to have nominated him, have been so spectacular that we are simply astounded at their brazen exhibitions, and vain attempts to justify them. Thank God! we are not of this class. As The Gazette has been for more than 25 years, so it is to-day, and ever shall be as long as its one editor in all these years edits it—LOYAL TO THE RACE first always, after Almighty God. ROOSEVELT'S EGOTISM. Editor Chicago Journal: On his labored denial that either he or Gov. Hughes has favored corporations contributing to the Republican campaign fund of 1904, the president of the United States delivers himself of the following choice selection of egotism: I treat each man and each corporation as a person, he or it is acting rightly on a given occasion. Let me give you an example. I have proceeded against the corporations of which E. H. Harriman is the head on certain points where I believe they have violated the law. But when in connection with the case of the corporation of the Harriman corporations repaired the dam I last winter did everything I could to have congress reimburse Mr. Harriman for so much of the obligation as I felt ought to come upon the United States. I would hold - myself unfit to be president if, because prosecuted by Harriman where I had been tried, he had to do justice to him justice where I thought the facts required that justice should be done him." I! Me! Myself! The Big Show! The whole thing! "I would hold my self unfit to be president," says Mr. Roosevelt, "if because I prosecuted Mr. Harriman where I thought he had broken the law, I yet hesitated to do him justice where I thought the facts indicated that justice should be done him." just justice only be done when Mr. Roosevelt thinks it should be? What would happen if the president should think that the facts required that an injustice be done an American citizen? As a specimen of heroic egotism the above will prove interesting to those who erroneously suppose that the president has achieved his limit in some of his former spectacular gallery plays. Somebody ought to remind Mr. Roosevelt that he is president of the United States, and not the chairman or the press agent of the Republican campaign committee. Big Indian ME! Heap much II I. J. MEDADE. Dubuque, Iowa. Hughes stole-stepped it. During Gov. Hughes' visit here recently, a colored gentleman (Thomas W. Swann of New York City) handed the governor took it and scrawled and ignored it. The colored man wanted to know if the New York executive approves of conviction before trial, which Senator Foraker says was practiced by President Roosevelt and Taft in the case of the colored troops of Brownsville. Can you blame Gov. Hughes for ignoring it and passing on to other and more agreeable things? There are strong indications that for the last few years we are going to show a little independence, despite the eleventh hour tears of sympathy shed by Taft, and the taffy of the lesser rights—Bloomington (Ill.) Bulletin. State Acts in Rioting Case State Acts in Rioting Cases. Springfield, Ill.—The state last week F. Mansfield in the prosecution of the hot cases which Attorney General Stead and Gov. Dineen sent Charles F. Mansfield from the attorney general's office to assist the county prosecutor—in the case against Humphrey. In the action was taken by the failure of the failing state to convict in the two cases against Abe Raymer. In both instances almost mandatory instructions were issued to the juries by the court, yet the juries cleared him both times. The case for murder, is being tried for malicious destruction of property at Loper's restaurant. Had a Diamond Fortune. Louis, Mo.—With diamonds in his shoes, tucked away in the seams of his clothing and hidden in every conceivable part of his effects, George Foster, an Afro-American, the bearer of a half dozen alliases, was arrested Tuesday noon. The man's treasure amounted to over $30,000. All the glistening pen and ink stories were identified those composing the loot which were stolen four months ago from S. C.

TAFT DRAGS THE SOLDIERS BY THE NECK TO ROOSEVELT WHO KICKS THEM IN! A WOMAN'S STRONG APPEAL TO OHIO AFRO-AMERICANS TO "STRIKE FOR JUSTICE AND RIGHT!" DO NOT DIVIDE YOUR VOTE Defeat "Jim-Crow" Car Taft, and "Son in-Law" Longworth and Strike Roosevelt a Telling Blow—Stand Up for Senator For Bonneville, Ore, Oct. 2, 1903. Editor The Gazette—Dear Sir. Your comments on the Hearst charges are fine. Keep up the good work, for God's sake and for the race's sake! For the sake of justice and right, defeat Taft. Don't waste half of your power by powering any third ticket, Vote for Bryan! Suppose you vote for one of the third parties and Taft carries Ohio by 10,000, and so is elected. Can't you see Roosevelt will claim the credit? Foraker will be killed, politically and the Negroes will be depressed by every man. (No other race would hesitate to vote for Satan rather than Johnny Cash.) Taft and his master have the Negroes) and there will be no man to defend the right. Defeat Taft and so punish his cowardice in sliding with Roosevelt and Hearst in abusing the senator. Prove yourselves MEN by giving blow for blow. Strike! with all your might. "It's a grand motto. Live up to it. You won't need to vote for Satan." In 1912 the old line Republicans will get control and we may get our great Foraker for leader. These attacks of Hearst and Taft and Roosevelt only show how great and good and wise the senator is and how coarse and vicious and cowardly his enemies are. Oh! men, use your opportunity. Strike hard. The greatest the major attacks against Taft, the more he deserves to Roosevelt, and let the colored voters defeat Long worth in the First Ohio. Lose no chance to strike your enemy. If you fail to use the power God has given you to punish wrong, how dare you ask Him to defend you? MRS, PATRICIA ROBISON GOV. HUGHES OF NEW YORK. Gov. Hughes of New York state is noted particularly among our people of the country for the steaafastness with which he has refused recognition to the Afro-American voters of the "Empire State." He has ignored every request and demand our people of his state have made upon him and has even refused any explanation of his refusals, showing the utmost contempt for so large and potent a factor of the Republican party of that state, as is the New York Afro-American vote. On the other hand, Tammany alone, has given more recognition to its Afro-American contingent in New York City, than the Republican federal and state administrations combined throughout New York state. This is a year when our people have absolutely no good reason to fear the election of a Democratic president. Therefore, while we are at it, we should not lose an opportunity to contribute all in our power to the defeat of such men as Taft, Hughes, Senator Warner of Missouri, Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, and all their kind of Republican candidates they stand for. "Buckle on your arm" and let it be "war to the death" on election day in November, and for a quarter of a century thereafter the Afro-American voter will be of some consequence in the north at least. SENATOR WARNER OF MISSOUR During the course of the investigation of the Brownsville matter by the United States senate committee of military affairs, Senator Warner O'Mearl, as well as Senator Lodge o Massachusetts, were noted for their almost malicious questioning of the members of "The Black Battalion who appeared upon the witness stand Indeed their mistreatment was so fragrant as to attract the attention of many of the leading daily newspapers and magazines of the country. These two senators particularly, were Roosevelt's and Taft's representatives on the committee, and seemed to feel it their duty to do everything in their power, not only to humilate the poor, innocent and outraged soldiers of color, but also to place them and their cause in a bad light before the committee, the senate and the country. To the loyal Afro-American voters of Missouri, Ohio, New York, Indiana, Massachusetts and the rest of the north will soon come an opportunity to resent not only Warner's and Lodge's mistreatment and gratuitous insults to the entire race, but also Roosevelt's and Taft's, which were even more aggravating. Election day is but a few weeks distant and will afford the only opportunity to do so Brave, and loyal MEN of the race will grasp it. Only cowards and slaves will fall to do their full duty on that day. The situation from a race view point is one that calls for careful thought, strong determination to do one's duty to self, family and the race, and a knowledge of individuals and conditions such as has never before been required in the history of the Afro-American. We must show this time of all times to the country at large, and the Republican party particularly, that we not only know our rights, but will fight for them; that we not only know when we grossly insulted, but will resent insults in a proper way and at the proper time; that we are MEN, and no longer political dupes and slaves. AN EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY. The old reliable Gazette desires an active agent and correspondent in every city and town in Ohio and neighboring states having a number of Afro-American residents. We are especially desirous of hearing from persons in the following cities: Dayton, Zanesville, East Liverpool, Akron, Lima, Loralin, Springfield, Newark, Urbana, Oberlin, Cambridge, Sandusky, Hamilton, Wellsville, Toledo, O., and other places where we have none. Write to the Editor of the Gazette, Blackstone building, Cleveland, O., and terms will be sent promptly. Our readers will oblige us by sending the address of any good person or persons in any of the cities named above or others, to whom we can write relative to the matter.

A councilman from the Twelfth ward, he not only continues to refuse to cut a street through from Central avenue to Cedar avenue, he continues to street-cut a few prejudiced Cedar avenue residents asked him not to do so because colored people would come through the street from Cedar avenue and peep in their windows. Hirstius even with drew an ordinance which he introduced in the council about a year ago that prohibited street-cut to cut the street through), at the request of the above mentioned prejudiced Cedar avenue residents. Last fall when he was re-elected to the council, Hirstius, a second time, promised to have the street cut through, but up to date has steadily refused to keep his promise. Remember him and scratch his nose on the street on election day in November. Hirstius is the Republican candidate for sheriff. Defeat blm! BOSTON BAPTISTS BOLT W. H. TAFT SO DO PROMINENT EPISCOPAL AND METHODIST CLERGY-MEN OF COLOR. When He Recalled the "Brownville" Roosevelt-Taft Discharge Without Honor of the Brave and Innocent "Black Rats" It is simply astonishing how the anti-Taft wave grows, as it rushes on, among our people. Last week Monday night in Bethel A. M. e Church, Chicago, Vice Presidential Candidate Sherman was hissed, hooted, whistled at and gven "cat-calls" for the mere mentioning of Roosevelt's name in connection with that of "The Black Battalion;" and fully one-third of the audience got up and left the church. A very proper proceeding. ALL should have left the church without hissing, etc. however. That sort of thing is wrong and should never be indulged in. Nor should Roosevelt, Taft, Sherman or other campaign "spellbinders" expect us to tolerate for a single moment such insults as the audience in Bethel church so strongly resented. Because they think we are party slaves and fools, is no reason why we should encourage them in entertaining such assinine thoughts and beliefs. Read the following: Unfurled a Bryan Banner. Washington, D. C.-Under the direc tion not Rev. Dr. Corrothers, one of our leading ministers, who was the principal speaker, a Bryan and Kern banner was swing to the breeze here on campus during the progress of a mass meeting. Another Bryan League. Philadelphia, Pa.—Oratory and enthusiasm were given free rein last Thursday night at a hall at the southeast corner of Twentheth and Carpenter streets, where @ Thirtieth Ward Colored Bryan league was organized, under the auspices of the Colored Bryan league of this city. James W. Phoenix, president of the central body, occupied the chair, and addresses were made by Mr. Phoenix, A. J. Russell, H. Wyllet, The Wyllet Institution elected president, treasurer and secretary of the new organization, which pledged itself to an untriling campaign for Bryan and Kern. Masons Against Taft. A Boston correspondent of the Springfield (Mass.) Republican wrote recently: "From a well-informed source it appears that when the Colonels were here recently they were so scorned that they their presidential preferences, and it is said that a large number of them will vote straight for Bryan, while others who cannot go as far as that will not vote at all. It is said that they will vote about it, and that what they will count for more than what they say." Republican United States Supreme Court Against Equal Rights. The Republican party is of no use to the Negro. A Republican supreme court has decided in favor of our degradation, and looks favorably upon every man and woman who is lynched, absolutely for nothing. So it matters but the whether we vote for a Republican man, or for a Democrat of a Populist, or anything else, bearing the name of a party. It is simply white against black, and the blacks have not manhood enough to seek a country they can manage for themselves, or even here to proclaim their independence. White Negro-haters might hang or burn a day, AND REPUBLICAN OUTSIDE OF ONE OR TWO WOULD OPEN THEIR MOUTHS. THE SUPREME COURT HAS STRIPPED THE NEGRO OF EVERY CIVIL RIGHT TILL HE IS NATIONALLY A HUMAN DOG, AND THE REPUBLICAN PART IS SAVEL DONE, BY DANGING OTHING, BY OUR CONDITION—Bishop H. M. Turner in the Atlanta (Ga.) Voice of the People. REV. DR. O. M. WALLER Favors Bryan's Nomination and Says White Republicans are Making Friends with the White South. Brooklyn, N. Y.—Bryan has a new advocate. He is the Rev. Dr. Q. M. Waller, president of the Kings County Colored Civic league, and prominent, He is a medical as well as a spiritual doctor. Mr. Waller says that more than six-tenths of our people are opposed to Taft, and it is time for us to change the attitude of "doctors." Dr. Waller is assistant rector of St. Augustin P. E, church, past exalted ruler of the Elks of America, a thirty-third degree member of Masonry, and honorary member of the Grand Orient of Haytil. He says the Republicans have persistently relied on use their power to relieve the African-American political and social disabilities. "It must not be forgotten, however, that the Democratic party is under no obligation to the colored voter," he said. "We cannot say what the attitude of the Democratic party will be toward us if we place it under the Republican party. It is high time for the 7,000,000 of people in the south to seek the friendship, politically, of their neighbors and divide their vote." Rev. Waller says white Republicans are trying to make friends with the white south. He asserts President Roosevelt has not hesitated to confederate to office and has selected to accompany him in Africa "the notorious captain of Brownsville infamy." Bill McDonald of the Texas Rangers. Republicans Allow Lynching and "Jim Crow" Cars. Atlanta, Ga.—The war Republicans, who saved the country from the secession national rupture, tried to give the colored man every right which any American possessed, but these latter were unable to be lynched and murdered by tens of thousands without judge or jury, distranchised by whole states and "Jim Crow" cars carried on till the same runs into the national capital, and other states where freedom has existed for a hundred years. The black men are members of the United States congress on the strength of the Negro vote, and the Republicans know the Negro has no vote in the very states these fifty-two white men are members of congress from and they say or try to do nothing about it, but to the contrary, enrage the hellish and outrageous measure. If the Republican party was worth the snap of a finger, they would tell these 52 members who are holding congress to either go out, or let the colorado in your several states vote, and they would legislate the unjust, unrightious, unreasonable and dishonest judges of the supreme court out of office. The judges were put in that have some sense of justice. Bishop H. M. Turner. MINISTERS BOLT TAFT Propose to Work for Bryan and Severely Criticise Roosevelt and Taft. Boston, Mass."—Bolt Taft and vote for Bryan; Roosevelt is the enemy of the Negro, because he has oppressed us, thinking us powerless to resist. He has insulted our soldiers and turned down our protectors. Taft is Roosevelt's mouthpiece, and therefore also an enemy to the Negro. Give Bryan a chance and he will be with us." The above is the substance of a resolution adopted by our ministers of this city. Revs. Benjamin W. Farris, George M. Brown, J. H. Dennis and S. J. Comfort, four leading ministers, are the champions of the move to advocate Taft's defeat in their Sunday sermons. Rev. Dr. M. N. Shaw first gave expression to our people's anti-Taft sentiment when at a private conference of our local Baptist ministers in St. Paul's church, he declared in a paper on the "Duty of a True Minister in the Present Crisis" that no Afro-American who respected himself could vote for Taft. He told the minister, "I would not be unqualified for them to express themselves in politics. He said that the race would fall into disrepute if Taft were elected, and that it was a minister's Christian duty to prevent such a calamity. The ministers took his advice. Rev Dr. Mr. Farris: "The Republicans have been hindering the development of the south. They do not provide for proper education of Negro youth and therefore among our brothers much ignorance exists." Rev. Mr. Brown said: "Roosevelt has insulted our race; Taft is but Roosevelt's henchman. Shame on the colored man I say, who would vote him. We have rights which Theodore Roosevelt in all his glory cannot disregard." Cleveland and Bryan. Atlanta, Ga. — The Republican leaders have given a few colored men little offices, we grant, but PRESIDENT CLEVELAND, A DEMOCRAT DID TO HIM, AND HAD ME, APPOINTED, ED, IN TEN MINUTES, OURSELF. And we believe, at heart, William J. Bryan is as good as President Cleveland was and would do as much for the black man. What do we care about a few colored men, when at least 17,000,000 of men and women are degraded and persecuted as no other race of people since the world began. We know the colored people of the country are spoken of numerically, at eight or ten million. We have been 8,000,000 ever since we have 870,000. We would make us number at least 17,000,000, and as we believe 19,000,000, for these census enumerators are willful liers, so far as the south is concerned, for we know of whole counties where a census enumerator has served for 30 years —Rt. Rev. H. M. Truner, for 30 years —Rt. Rev. H. A. M. church. We have laws against the naturalization of European anarchists, but none to disfranchise American anarchists. For instance, lynch-murders who burn Negroes alive at the stake for the edification of the inhabitants of the town or district; or temperance dynamiters, who blast saisons in order to further the cause of slavery; or light tiders, who whip their conspirators, murder them; destroy their property and—well there are a few more, genuinely American anarchist species.—Jacob Egberth.

Dixey, at a dinner in New York, talked about gagging—about the ability, reasonably common among actors, of introducing impromptu jokes into a part. "Nearly all of us can gag," said Mr. Dixey. "Usually, though, the gagging is of a selfish nature. I'll explain to you what I mean. "Once at the beginning of my career, I played the part of a footman, I wore in this part a very broad white collar, a kind of Eton collar. Well, the leading man told me one night that with my help he would introduce a gag. "All right,' said I. 'What is the gag to be?" "You know how,' said the leading man, 'in the third act, I write a letter while you stand beside me and wait to carry it to your mistress? Well, after the letter is finished, I'll reach over to you in an absent way and wipe my pen on your white collar. Of course it will make a large black stain, but you will see—it will bring down the house." "I laughed harshly. "Capital," I said. 'And I'll finish the thing off with a little lagg of my own. . . soon as you have wiped your pen on my nice collar, TII wheel round and kicked it. Of course it will hurt you a little, but will see—it will be the lift of the show.' | Local News | Notice to Subseribers—Subscribers not receiving The Gazette regularly should notify us at once.

PERUNA ADVISED FOR SUDDEN COLDS. It Should be Taken According to Directions on the Bottle, at the First Appearance of the Cold. St. Joseph, Mich., Sept. 1901.—Last winter I caught a sudden cold which developed into an unpleasant catarrh of the head and throat, depriving me of my appetite and usual good sniffs. A friend who had been cured by Peruna advised me to try it and I sent for a bottle at once, and I am glad to say that in three days the phlegm had loosened, and I felt better, my appetite returned and within nine days I was in my usual good health. —Miss Helen Sauerbier. Peruna is an old and well tried remedy for colds. No woman should be with out it. Even to China Land.

"An eruption broke out on my daughter's chest. I took her to a doctor, and he pronounced it to be eczema of a very bad form. He treated her, but the disease spread to her back, and then the whole of her head was affected, and all her hair had to be cut off. The pain she suffered was excruciating, and with that and the heat and tingling her life was almost unbearable. Occasionally she was delirious and she did not have a proper hour's sleep for many nights. The second doctor we tried afforded her just as little relief as the first. Then I purchased Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and Pills, and before the Ointment was three-quarters finished every trace of the disease was gone. It really seemed like magic. Mrs. T. W.

Mother started to the rescue, and then paused as she heard the voice of her younger, guarded but anxious and insistent: "You ask her, Billie. You've known her longer than I have."—Everybody's Magazine. Expressions of a Cynic. Walter Pater, an old man at 50, bald as a coot and grotesquely plain, regarded every woman much as old Dean Swift, who wrote: "A very little wilt is valued in a woman, as we are pleased with few words spoken intelligibly by a parrot." "You don't approve of marriage?" a friend once observed to Pater. "No," he replied, "nor would anybody else if he gave the matter proper consideration. Men and women are always pulling different ways. Women won't pull our way. They are so perverse." Rival Dignities An Englishman, lion of boasting of his ancestry, took a coin from his pocket and, pointing to the head engraved on it, said: "My great-great-grandfather was made a lord by the king whose picture you see on this shilling." "What a coincidence!" said his Yankee companion, who at once produced another coin. "My great-great-grandfather was made an angel by the Indian whose picture you see on this cent."—Ladies' Home Journal. WANTED TO KNOW The Truth About Grape-Nuts Food. It doesn't matter so much what you hear about a thing. It's what you know that counts. And correct knowledge is most likely to come from personal experience. "About a year ago," writes a N. Y. man. "I was bothered by indigestion, especially during the foremon. I tried several remedies without any permanent improvement. "My breakfast usually consisted of oatmeal, steak or chops, bread, coffee and some fruit. "Hearing so much about Grape-Nuts, I concluded to give it a trial and find out if all I had heard of it was true. "So I began with Grape-Nuts and cream, 2 soft boiled eggs, toast, a cup of Postum and some fruit. Before the end of the first week I was rid of the acidity of the stomach and felt much relieved. "By the end of the second week all traces of indigestion had disappeared and I was in first rate health once more. Before beginning this course of diet, I never had any appetite for lunch, but now I can enjoy a hearty meal at noon time." "There's a Reason." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

R is estimated that $1,500,000,000 in gold, and perhaps as much in silver, is hidden away in the Hindu stocking. Vast quantities of the precious metals are known to be kept in the form of personal ornaments. From time immemorial India has been a reservoir into which the precious metals have flowed from all quarters of the globe, only to disappear from statistics. Could the idle wealth be drawn upon, the effect on the industrial and commercial life of the country would be very great. It is, therefore, a matter of concern to try to turn India's dormant capital to active use. It may be impossible to do it. The Oriental mind views everything in a way incomprehensible to westerners. But if only a tithe of the concealed hoards of India were vitalized a new aspect might be given to the conditions of life in England's great eastern empire.

RHEUMATISM PRESCRIPTION The increased use of whiskey for rheumatism is causing considerable discussion among the medical fraternity. It is an almost infallible cure when mixed with certain other ingredients and taken properly. The following formula is effective: "To one-half pint of good whiskey add one ounce of Toris Compound and one ounce of Syrup Sarsaparilla Compound. Take in tablespoonful doses before each meal and before retiring." Toris compound is a product of the laboratories of the Globe Pharmaceutical Co., Chicago, but it as well as the other ingredients can be had from any good druggist.

Three young men were discussing that awful thing called the future. "I'll be content," said one, "if, in ten years from now, I have $1,000,000." "Fiddlesticks!" exclaimed the second, "you want too much. If I have one hundred thousand ten years from now I'll be happy." The third was a solemn, slow-mannered youth, seldom aroused to excitement. Now, however, he abandoned his recumbent posture on a bed and sat upright. "Fellows," he drawled, "we'll all be lucky, if, ten years from now, we have the price of a square meal." Which entirely broke up the serious nature of the discussion. I know a man who cannot afford to travel, and yet has a delightful way of deceiving himself.
