Party Costumes Party Costumes A Dutch Boy, a Fairy, Little Bo-Peep, a Tiger Lily and an Indian. IN MACHINE WORKS ESTHETIC TWENTY-SIXTH Party A Dutch Boy, a Fairy, Little Bo-P ALL children love to "dress up." Mother's apron tied on for a trail will transform the wee girl into a fine lady, while the small boy becomes the most terrible of pirates by pulling his cap down over his eyes and thrusting a pasteboard sword into his belt. To have really truly dress up things is a rare treat, and there are few things that a child enjoys as much as one of the gay little costume parties so popular at this time of year. Very pretty and effective outfits may be gotten up at small expense, and often the clever mother devises things she has on hand. Suggestions for several fancy dresses are shown in the sketch, any one of which might be easily copied. The dainty little fairy's gown is made of unstarched mosquito netting, in pale green over a delicate pink, the outer skirt being shorter than the under dress. Each skirt, the square neck, and the sleeves are edged with silver spangles. The wings are made of heavy wire and cream color netting stretched across. These are painted in pretty, delicate colorings. The large spots are dark blue and coral, with golden yellow and dark green markings above them. The small spots are in shades of violet, light green and pink, and the little markings are lightly traced in gold. A gold band and a star are worn on the hair, and the wand is a slender rod of wood, gilded and adorned with a golden star. The little fairy slippers are pink with cold snuggle butterflies. The pretty Bo Peep has a full dress of soft white cheesecloth with bodice and panels of light blue cretonne figured with pink roses. The bodice is laced with black cord. The white straw hat has a pale blue facing, a band of ribbon and clusters of pink roses. The crook, which may be purchased for a small, sum at any shop where German Nearly Bound and Made of Various Colors, They Are Excellent and Handy Folders. If you go off on frequent faunts, it is a great help to have the following articles, which with a machine can be made in a few moments, and after using can be laid away for future use. Bind strips of linen in different colors about a yard wide and three-quarters of a yard long, with white linen tape, or merely hem them if you prefer to save the time. In the green one, we will say, lay your linen and plain white waists—told it over and button or pin together with safety pins. In the blue one, place your lingerie waists. In smaller ones of suitable sizes put your stocks and belts, in another your vells, with a stiff square of cardboard to hold them flat. Blind squares 15 or 16 inches and sew tapes to one corner for your shoes, which can be rolled up like a package, diagonally with the ends turned in, and tied. Vary these colors for convenience in finding them. You can outline in embroidery cotton, if you care to, "Ties"—"Pumps"—"Shoes"—"Rubbers"—or merely pin a written label on each. The cases containing these accessories can be laid in a drawer on your arrival—Delineator. Protection for Summer Frocks. For summer dancing gowns the foot edge of not, chiffon and painted mousseline skirts is often caught to the bottom of their satin slips, above a wide bias fold or hem, by means of a gathered thread turned under, so that the outer transparent fabric is retained into a slight pouf all round. By this means the satin hem is exposed and bears all the abuse derived from the floor in the whirl and velocity of the dance. On the other hand, the foul fabric escapes its usual destiny and keeps its freshness and pretiness intact. The grace of the skirt remains unimpaired in its line—Vogue. THE GAZETTE favors are sold, has a bow of blue satin ribbon. The stockings, which are the 25-cent white cotton lille variety, are dyeed light blue, and the blue slippers are ornamented with a pink flower. Tiger Lily is a gay little malt. Her dress is a full, gathered one of cream color cheesecloth, sleeveless and with round neck. The overskirt and sleeves are of golden yellow cambric, wired on the edge and spotted with bright crimson paint. The stems of the flowers are of brown ribbon, wired, with dark brown chenille tips. Long green lily leaves of cambric go over each shoulder. The hat is green cambric on the outside, with the golden yellow inside, and the edges wired. The stockings are cream color and the slippers golden yellow with crimson dots. The Indian lad has a suit of khaki, cambric or some heavy ecu color cotton material. Bright colored cambric is cut into fringe and used to decorate the suit. Feathers from the feather duster furnish the head dress, sewed on to a strip of stout stubble cotton cloth, doubled to make it strong, and painted with little specks of bright color in an Indian design. The belt is made in the same way. The tomahawk is of heavy pasteboard or thin wood. A pair of moccasins complete this warlike rig, which would delight the heart of any small boy. The Dutch boy's suit is quite as picturesque as those worn by the little people in Holland. The sleeves are white cotton cloth, the jacket terra cotta cambric with green buttons, and full bloomers of deft blue cambric. Paint red stripes on a pair of white stockings and buy a pair of real Dutch wooden clumps. The cap is an ordinary visor cap with a full white crown. The necklec is of light brown muslin or cambric. OF COTTON CREPE. This illustration shows the elaborate use made of lace insertions and inset medallions and washable white soutache on a stunning blouse of cotton crepe. The design is a splendid one for a dressy separate bodice. For the Little Girl's Hair. Hair combs for small girls are now threaded with ribbon and an arrangement which is generally becoming is to have ribbon in these terminate in a huge rosette at the left ear. Wire fillets woven with ribbons and flowers are also worn in children's hair. For school and everyday wear only dark weaves are worn, but there is unlimited license in the selection of those for party and house wear. Indeed, the ribbon for these dress-up occasions cannot be too gay. Directoire Parasol The long-handed directoire parasol, designed to exactly match the gown it accompanies, and finished with an ebony or white handle, is a fetish of the hour, and not a few of them have tassels and cords which impart the correct old world air.

The Dayton Daily News of May 21 has a finely illustrated half page write-up of Mr. Mose Moore's Dehome Park, the largest one for our use particularly in this country. For the first time in the history of Rochester, N. Y., an Afro-American was foreman of a supreme court jury. James A. Ross was recently foreman in Justice Pound's court. Dr. Jose C. Barbosa, a black Porto Rican, educated in America, is a member of the island's executive council and the most popular resident with both natives and Americans in Porto Rica. CHADLEY W. M. Randolph. Our four Richmond, Va., banks have reported to the state corporation commission a volume of business of $723.311. The savings accounts total $294.173, with open checking accounts amounting to $124.489. Ex-president Nord Alexis of Haiti, is the guest of Mr. James Turner, of Peru, Ind., for the summer. They arrived in New York on the 15th. Mr. Turner is well to do and has been visi- tional, a foundation founded by Toussaint L'Ouverture. Wm. M. Randolph, Esq., of Pittsburg, has just been appointed an assistant district attorney: salary $2,500 a year. W. A. Harris of the same city was recently made record clerk, in the Register of Wills' office. Our people of the "Smoky City," feel very much encouraged as a result. Dave Garner, who some time ago kided a white man about his (Garner) business, gave two years in the penitentiary. Had Garner been a white man he would never have been tried. The "unwritten law" don't amount to a snap of the finger when a Negro is involved—Texas Guide. Dr. E. P. Roberts, one of the health officers of New York City, was the only Afro-American member of his class (1838) of the New York Homeepath class dinner at Hotel Manhattan, he visited one of the five speakers and upon reorganization he was elected secretary for the coming five years. It is said that Jack O'Brien promoted his recent fight with Champion Jack Johnson by getting an offer, from the club that gave the bout, of 75 per cent of the gate receipts, and that Jack O'Brien was the recipient. As the receipts were $18,800 O'Brien paid Johnson $5,000 and had $8,875 left for himself. President W. G. Frost of Berea, Ky., College, has announced that an industrial school for our people will be established near Shelbyville, Ky.

We have no ill-feeling against Senator Tillman and if our recommendation will do him any good towards securing him one of the best jobs in hell, he will be to make application place, he has but to make application for the same at this office. In the meantime we apologize to Senator Tillman and to the public for the bluntness of our remarks, the plain, unvarnished truth in our utterances—Richmond, (Va.) Planet. In the meantime the Afro-American heavyweight from Boston, is now the heavyweight champion of England. He won the title when he knocked out Ian Hague, the defender of the English heavyweight honors, in the fourth round at the National Sporting club, Tuesday evening in London. The fight was scheduled to go twenty rounds. As a result of his few short minutes, the giant Hague, Lanford received $2,000, the amount of the guaranteed prize. That convict Afro-American who had sufficient ingenuity to hide from the Ohio penitentiary guards for five days will be flogged and drenched in icy water and starved and put in a dungeon and have a ball and chain attach- ed to his person. Inasmuch as he did not get away or hurt anyone, or do any thing that would be culpable in anyone but a convict, it may be held that any or all of these punishments would be unduly severe. But prison discipline must be maintained.—E— Sheriff Deputy, Shipp Deputy Gibson and four other residents of Chattanooga, Hamilton County, Tennessee, were declared to be guilty of contempt of the supreme court of the United States in combining in a conspiracy in 1905 to lynch an African-American, sentenced after he had been granted appeal by the supreme court, and sentence will be passed upon the six men next Tuesday and we trust that it will be severe, including both fine and imprisonment for a good long term. Because of the confession of a dying white man, Jim Richardson, who has been serving for 18 years in the penitentiary for murder, will soon be a free man by pardon of Gov. Smith of Georgia. Just before he died, the man confessed to accidentally killing a white man named Smith while he was prowling around his house. The American was suspected, and rather than go into court himself, the slayer let the innocent man be convicted. His education completed, Gilbert Jones, aged 28, the son of the Rev. Joshua H. Jones, former president of Wilberforce university, has returned to his home in Xenia from Germany. He holds a doctor's degree in philosophy. Mr. Jones stopped in Columbus, where his father was once a member of the board of education. Gilbert was graduated from Central High school and spent the years at O. S. U. Then he graduated at Wilberforce University and earned two degrees at Dickerson University, Pa. became the head of the department of literature at Langston University, Oklahoma, and on a leave of absence went to Germany, where he studied at Goettingen and Jena, taking his final degree last February. He will return to Oklahoma. THE 24TH INFANTRY, THE FINEST Body of Men He Ever Saw and He Has Traveled Much for Many Years—Local Notes. Springfield, O.—A writer (white) in the Chicago Daily News recently said: "I take a great deal of interest in the physical prowess of various classes of people, not necessarily according to their nationality, but according to their occupation. There is nothing that I admire more than a rugged, well-developed man or woman. I do not mean the physical culturer or the finer man, but rather the hardy, rugged type, those who have worked outdoors all their lives. A person may be physically strong and constitutionally weak, or constitutionally strong and physically weak. Of the two I prefer the latter, but the person that I admire the most has the happy combination of both. The final person who I admire was the crew of a Portuguese fishing smack sailing out of Boston. I mean finest from a physical standpoint. Great big, hardy, bronzed fellows, it was a pleasure to see them. I also had the privilege of seeing the crew of a Russian warship at drill. They were large-boned, ungainly fellows, on the average larger than American sailors, having much physical strength. In fact, a blonde giant never gives me the impression of strength that the brunette of the same size gives me. The largest body of men that I ever saw was the Twenty-four United States colored infantry. I doubt very much if that regiment could be fitted to any other regiment in the world. The Negro physically is a pretty good man. I have seen Negro longshoremen in some of the cotton-shipping ports in the south perform some prodigious feats of strength, and I have seen some of them apparently over 60 years old. I remember one great big, black giant who was without a doubt a great sailor. I have seen, and I have seen Sawdow, jeffries and many others."—Lilly-bell Brown of Yellow Springs was here Sunday. —Jessie Ball is conversed. —Grace Butler of Selma valescent. —Grace Butler of Selma was here Sunday as a delegate to the state M. S. convention. —Helen Beard was able to attend church Sunday and was given a gift by Mr. Downing last week was a success and thoroughly enjoyed. —Mamie Hazelwood is better. —Mrs. A. W. Miller has returned to Youngs town. A. DISFRANCHISER: Made U. S. Judge in North Carolina by President Taft, Who Consults Bourbon Senators Before Appointing Him. Washington, D. C.—President Taft sent to the senate May 10 the nomination of Henry Grover Connor to be federal judge for the eastern district of North Carolina. Connor is a Democrat who was a member of the house of representatives of that state. Before announcing the appointment President Taft sent for Senators Overman and Simmons, Democrats, and conferred with them. Simmons was chairman of the Democratic state committee during the notorious campaign when C. B. Aycock, for the Democrats, and S. S. Adams, for the Republicans, were candidates for governor, and issue was the matter. Connor was speaker of the North Carolina house at the time. He campaigned actively for disfranchisement. Justice "Rip Van Winkle" Dugro. New York City.—A colored man is inferior to a white man, according to a decision of Justice Dugro, of the supreme court. His sensibilities are of lesser importance. The justice says, imprisonment—this was the case in point—cannot shame or humiliate any Negro as much as they can injure any white man. And most especially, according to this rather remarkable decree, a Negro cannot be damaged to the extent of $2,500 by being jailed, although in innocence. In Justice Dugro's opinion $300 is plenty to recompense a Negro or such suffering. Dugro, or send him back down south where, it is clearly evident he belongs.

WESTEEN RESERVE CLEVELAND, O. HISTORICAL SOCIETY. IN UNION THE ESSENCE OF STRUGGLE A. E. The Most Successful Attorney of the Race in this Section of the Country—Recent Succ Last Saturday the motion in the United States court for a new trial filed by the Erie railroad in the case of Daniel P. Conway vs. Erie Railroad Co., in the United States court, was overruled, thus clinching the $5,000 judgment obtained by Attorney Stewart art for Conway. The trial of this case was the first time a Triple J weeks ago and attracted the attention of trainmen generally because of Conway's being financial secretary of the Order of Railway Trainmen. While it was being tried, the state supreme court at Columbus decided in Mr. Stewart's favor the case of Peter Toot vs. Republic Iron & Steel Co., a $10,000 damage case. The latter case was on the 16th case, and the first corporation case ever tried or orally argued by one of our race in this state before that august tribunal. Last week he also tried and won the case of Gombossy vs. Pennsylvania Railroad Co., another damage case against one of the country's largest corporations, thus winning three important cases in two weeks. Readers of The Gazette will remember that he recently winning a verdict for a client for $6,000 against the Carnegie Steel Co. and a verdict for $5,000 against the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Co. Mr. Stewart is a graduate of the Cincinnati law school and a resident of Youngstown practically all of his life, where, as the above indicates, he has a large practice, about all of it being from the other class of people. He was twice elected a member of the Ohio House in 1888 and 1889, and while serving his first term, rendered the editor of The Gazette invaluable aid in the passage of the bill which is now Ohio's mob violence or anti-lynching law. His splendid success in the practice of the profession of the law, as indicated above, has been noted from time to time for some years by The Gazette, as a matter of encouragement, not only to our lawyers, but to the race in general. We cannot have too much of it, either that man has not made a conclusion, or that subject of this sketch stands high among the legal fraternity of Youngstown and wherever he is known. Frequently he is retained in cases tried in western Pennsylvania and at various other points throughout northern Ohio. A BOOSEVELT-TAFT VICTIM. Mind Wrecked as a Result of His Brownsville Discharge Without Honor. Washington, D. C. — His mind wrecked by brooding over his dismissal from the army, Thomas Jefferson of Co C. one of our soldiers, wrongfully discharged without honor by Roosevelt and Taft as a result of the alleged Brownsville riot, was arraigned in police court on the 11th, charged with being a vagrant. He told the judge that he had become a lawyer. He was sent to the service. He enlisted in the army in 1892, serving faithfully until the Brownsville affair. The problem of finding work was a difficult one, as he had no trade but that of a soldier. He was employed in the navy yard here for a while and was let go in March last when a big discharge of employees took place. His story was told between sobs and greatly affected the judge, who plied the man with questions, to many of which incoherent answers were given. Judge Kimball deserved him to the work with a recommendation that he be given medical attention and restored to normal mental condition. In the meantime Agent Massy and other friends the man has made, will endeavor to secure his restoration to the army. Colored Men Uneasy. (Alfred Henry Lewis in Daily Examiner) Last, but not least, the colored man is beginning to believe that Mr. Taft is not his sincere friend. His presidential speeches in the South, his promise which squinted towards white Democrats for office, had rendered the colored man uneasy. Now, in support of that uneasiness, the colored man argues to bear the utterances of Mr. Taft in the banquet held by the citizens of Washington. It was meant to draw him out on the question of a change in district government. He submitted to be drawn out, but he came out the wrong way. He pronounced with clearness and emphasis against the ballot in the District. The citizens of Washington he no doubt saw. He said that Mr. Taft's declared opposition to the citizens of Washington voting, based upon the unpleasant assumption that, unfit for the responsibility, they would be sure to vote wrong, has made that chief magistrate a cloud of enemies. Not the least among these enemies is the colored man. He believes that in taking an anti-ballot position touching the ground, he would eyes on him. There are 310,000 people in District of Columbia, and 100,000 of them are black. Of the 50,000 probable voters more than 16,000 are black. One Year. $1.50 Six Months. 1.00 Three Months. 5.00 Subscribers are requested to remit by post- ence money order or registered letter Entered at the postoffice in Cleveland, Ohio as second-class matter. All communications should be addressed: BARRY C. SMITH. Editor and Proprietor THE GAZETTE. Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio Member Ohio Legislature. 1194 to 1893 1196 to 1893 1190 to 1892 Cleveland, O., May 29, 1909. 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. No Afro-American seems to have been in attendance upon, or seems to have been invited to attend this year's commencement exercises of Hampton, Va., Normal and Agricultural Institute, (for the education of the Negro and Indian. Why? Will Dr. H. B. Frizzle, president of the school, answer? The announcement of President Taft's acceptance of membership on the trustee board of the Institute, in the daily newspaper account of the commencement exercises, does not completely overshadow the matter we call attention to. The Supreme Court of the United States punished Sheriff Shipp, one of his deputies and four other residents (white) of Chattanooga, Hamilton County, Tenn., for contempt of court. They combined, in 1905, in conspiracy, to lynch an Afro-American, (Johnson) lynch the latter was in the jurisdiction of that august body, it having granted an appeal in his case. This makes it clear that lynchers can be punished by the Supreme Court of the United States for contempt of court at least, if not for lynching. Justice Dugro of the New York Supreme Court is evidently seeking some of the cheap notority that is given such maliciously blantant, prejudiced southern demagogues as Ben Tillman, Tom Dickson, Vardaman, and the rest of their ilk. No Negro occupying the position which Dugro is attempting to fill (upon the bench of the "Empire State") would be guilty of making such a coarse and very questionable public exhibition of himself as Dugro does in the ridiculous decision rendered recently and referred to elsewhere in the book. It is an窍趣 and the Justice's comment upon the same, as ridiculous as he makes himself by the utterance of The following editorial from the N. Y. Review is such an excellent endorsement of The Gazette's estimate of William H. Taft before and after his elevation to the Presidency that we gladly reproduce it, especially since Editor Simmons was among those who supported Candidate Taft last fall; "Henry G. Connor, a judge of the supreme court of North Carolina, the parlor of the most corrupt political house in Dixie, has been selected for the honor. Mr. Connor is a Democrat and if he were elevated to the federal bench for another reason than that he is a Democrat, and a stinking one at that. The Review is thankful in advance for such information as will assist in its discovery. Usually The Review is able to find the most corrupt Republicans in southern Republicans in appointments of high character, only, however, because colored men are out of the running before the bell rings. Mr. Taft has no position within his power to fill that could not be well and honorably filled by a southern colored man. Edward A. Johnson would make a better Judge than Henry G. Connor or any other Democrat in North Carolina. Johnson added to his ability to believe in our constitution. Connor not only does not believe in it, but he has no respect for it. Over and against the war amendments to the constitution, Connor places the revised constitution of North Carolina which came into the world puking on the federal law. The Review means not to be abrupt nor is the Review not to be abrupt in the pointment of Connor is a crime deep enough to exercise the patience and faith of a John the Baptist. Indeed it is an exilation of undiluted infamy, and The Review cannot remain mouth-closed. Feeble may be the word, but the word must be spoken. "Judge Connor's hands are soiled, solled with as wicked a crime as ever man was guilty of. He can never command the respect and confidence of almost one-half of the population of his district. We all remember 1899-1890 in can forget the cruel massacre of colored citizens at Wilmington, and we know how swiftly upon these moving and shamful events came the disfranchising laws of that state; what a campaign of abuse and persecution swept over a community heretofore a cradle of liberty and a home of tolerance. Connor—Judge Connor—Taft's Judge Connor—Connor foot wildly plucked in the flowing blood of innocent men and womening aloft the red banner of riot and anarchy. Connor was speaker of the North Carolina house of representatives, and he was one of the loudest shouters, of the hardest workers for the new constitution, now called by honest men a disgrace to civilization, defaming the good name of a harmless people, stealing their right of ballot and turning loose upon them the vicious hounds of prejudice. First in conceiving the inquisition, Connor was the first to declare the North Carolina constitution. Connor was foremost in declaring before the people in their behalf. As a reward for his services he was placed on the supreme court bench of his state. Is this newer and still higher elevation additional compensation for his conspicuous services to our innovative civilization? Is this new seal the recognition the federal government places upon his brow? God forbid. "These be trying times, comrades. A red-handed disfranchiser elevated to the bench by a Republican president; Tuman sitting with his feet under the table, and standing, when only yesterday he stood to cry cried down President Taft, and once more thrust his spear form of 10,000,000 American citizens. "But sadder than these things is the stupidity of the colored people, who seem not to know that heights by races reached were gained by combat and strife, by sacrifice and sleepless rigiance. "But comrade—nity is the word." Comment is really unnecessary and yet we cannot refrain from saying great(?) is President Taft's new southern policy. That is, "great"—for Negrohating Democrats. for Negotiating Southern Democracies. The Gazette warned our people of this last fall, and also did its DUTY otherwise at that time, as far as Taft and the race are concerned. "Our skirts are clean, thank the Lord." NO COLOR-LINE IN ENGLAND. English Good Templars Fight a Case in Court for a Colored Student. Youngstown, O.—The following is from a paper published in London, England: "At the fortieth annual, business meeting of the Grand Lodge of Good Templars of England in the Shire hall, Gloucester, the Grand Chief Templar's annual report mentioned that a talented colored student of Birmingham university from one of our West African colonies had been colored from a skating rink in Birmingham, and were American rinks, and the syndicate owning them allowed no colored people to enter them. The Students' club of the university endeavored to obtain an apology from the manager to the excluded student. The manager resisted, and, fearing that the student would be removed, their colored colleague, went to the chief of police to secure civil aid against them. Such exclusion was also found to be practised in Staffordshire. The Grand Chief Templar thereupon engaged legal assistance and had notice served on the manager of the Birmingham rink of notice to oppose the renewal of music liaison to city m. P.'s, 21 university governors, 10 university professors, 12 town councillors, 50 city clergymen and ministers, and 5 South African consulates, with the rink solicitors sent a letter expressing regret at the incident, and saying that they would expel the student, they would expel that regret in person as they would do in open court and adding that should he or any other Colonial students present themselves they would be at once admitted without distinction of race. The university accepted the apology, but the concession only covered British Colonial students, and the student claimed with the general consent of the petitioners, that no colonial or foreign student should be excluded on account of color. On that issue he fought the case in court, and only when the management undertook to have the rink open to all the world would open to all the world year."

Drawing "Color Line" Will Cost Them $2,503.53. Alton, Ill.-Fifteen citizens of Alton, including Mayor Edward Beall, all of whom were members of the city council 10 years ago, must pay the state of Illinois $2,503.53 as the cost of the court contest started by the refusal of the school board, 10 years ago, to admit the children of Scott Bibb to the schools.

SUBSCRIBE FOR THE OLD, RELIABLE GAZETTE. DO NOT BORROW OR SPONGE FROM YOUR NEIGHBOR. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, MAY 29, 1909. THE STRANGE PREFERENCE! THE GREAT EDITOR OF THE NEW YORK INDEPENDENT POURS SOME MORE "HOT SHOT" INTO - THE PREJUDICED SOUTH And President Taft's Outrageous "New Southern Policy"—As to Our Educational Opportunities in South Carolina. We are glad to publish an article this week by the able editor of the Charleston (S. C.) News and Courier; and yet hope it will not be regarded as discourse趣 if in this same issue we call attention to the most radical and intractible utterance we have yet come across on the subject of Negro office-holding in the south. It is well known that on the accession of President Taft to office the perfectly competent collector of the port resigned to give the president the opportunity to appoint a man of the chromatic tint which the white people, voiced by the News and Courier, demanded. We are by no means clear that the president did right in yielding, for the majority of the people of the state are tinted like Dr. Crum. Having secured his resignation there follows the attempt to drive all other colored men out of office, and the Florence postmaster is the first victim. It was reported that a northern white man, for some time a resident and a Republican, was to be made postmaster at Florence, and the Columbia State declared that he would be competent Negro in office than a white man who should recall the days of reconstruction. This does not press the News and Courier. Under no circumstances would it take a Negro. It thus lays down the law to white and black and to President "The State's sentence," An honest, capable and respectable Negro of the vicinity would be less objectionable than a white Republican who would recall the trying period of carpetbag government," means, if it means anything, has now at all, that Negro would be preferable to some kinds of white men in public office in the south, and that is the proposition that we flatly dispute. We lay down the proposition that Florence or any southern town does not want a Negro postmaster and will accept an African-American as a recipient of his qualifications and his record, in preference to a Negro. "That is the only safe ground that a southern community can stand on. We can't breathe freely until we know that the Negro is out of politics in the south; we can't hope for decent white government. We can't hope for Washington and throughout this republic that the government is going to be white." We cannot argue against such an absurd proposition. It refutes itself. To say that any white ignorant or thief would be preferable to the most reputable colored officeholder is too preposterous for discussion. It is absurd that these ardent sectionalists are driven. No Negro should vote, no Negro should hold office, for a Negro is not a full man, not even if his blood is seven-eighths white. White men must have everything; white men must rule the black or blackish men. Negroes must not be allowed to vote, even if seven-eighths of their blood appeals for it. Is that right? Is it safe? Remember that the white people are in a minority in South Carolina, and the minority demands, because they have had it in the past, the perpetual right of rule over the majority, and that majority has the power to wealth. How long will it be safe? To be sure, the white rulers of South Carolina claim to be the true friends of the colored people, and boast of what they have done to educate them. Here is another editorial in the same News and Courier, which tells of an "Educational Triumph." It tells how Colonel Shaw died at head of his Negro soldiers in the siege in the nineteen in 1863. The soldiers, it says, after the war, started the Shaw school in Charleston, with the aid of northern money, and it was turned over to the city as a public school 35 years ago. "Since they took over the affairs of this school the commissioners have expended on account of this memorial to the white colofolio of the colored Massachusetts regiment more than $350,000, the larger part of this very large sum having been beheaded by the town. In this Shaw school more than 50,000 colored children have been educated in the rudiments, at least, since it passed into control of the white people of this community. There are now, and have been every year for some years, 2,000 colored children attending this school and receiving from a competent and very earnest corps of white teachers the best possible instruction. During this period not many of the benefactions of northern promoters of Negro education to aid in this work." That is an interesting statement. It is to the credit of the white rulers that they did not change the name of the Shaw school. It is to their credit that they did not suppress the public school system for both whites and blacks organized by the petegraph government. It is to their credit that they did support this and one other primary school for Negroes, even though sadly crowded and far less generously supported than the school for whites but not subject to the implication that meanwhile the northern promoters of Negro education have contributed not a dollar to aid in this work. Does not our intelligent contemporary know that Charleston supplies only primary education to its colored children, and that if they want anything more they must get it from the charity of northern people. Why should not so rich a city as Charleston be ashamed to have its people depend for education on outside charity? Why should not our children be white youth in the high school and require its poorer colored youth to pay tuition to private schools? Have our Charleston friends never heard of the Avery normal school, where colored youths have to go after they have learned their letters at the Shaw school, owned by the American Missionary association, the property they had acquired. The pupils have to pay tuition to support it, which has been aided by the American Missionary association to the extent of $125,000. That is, if a colored child wants 3 ROBERT E. McKISSON NO NEGRO NEED APPLY For seven long years Recorder Hoe has refused to appoint any Afro-American to any position in his office, 'though asked to do so three different times by the editor of this paper, The Gazette. New he is baggling us for votes again—for the fourth time. Wonder "what he takes us for." In 1900 the editor of The Gazette, then a member of the Ohio legislature, led the fight that made Herman C. Baehr a member of the park board. HE is indebted to the RACE, and not it, to him. --- BAEHR OR McKISSON, WHICH? Before and after he was elected the first time seven years ago. County Recorder Hermann Baehr, who has about 40 male and female clerks and copyists in his office, was asked by the editor of The Gazette to appoint one of our young men and one of our young women to positions in his office as a clerk and copyist, respectively. This was a modest request considering the fact that the Afro-American voters of this county constitute practically one-fourth of its total Republican vote. This entitles us to four positions in the recorder's office instead of two. For seven long years, in spite of the fact that he has a representative of nearly every other class or race of people in the community, in his office as clerks and copyists, Recorder Baehr has steadfastly refused to appoint any member of our race to any position within his gift, and now comes forward as a candidate for the Republican nomination for mayor, begging us for votes. The duty of every self and race-respecting Afro-American in this community is perfectly clear as far as Mr. Baehr's latest candidacy is concerned. Hon. Robert E. McKisson, when mayor of the city, appointed more Afro-Americans to positions than any other Republican mayor in the history of Cleveland. This is a well-known and generally recognized FACT. Then too, he is the only member of the party who, as mayor, has had any opportunity to make a record on the street car question (the burning issue of the campaign) which commends him to the masses of the people of this city. In point of ability and as a campaigner, he is recognized by all men, well acquainted with him and Mr. Beahr, as being greatly the latter's superior. His platform, which he announced recently, is one of the very best things that any candidate for office in the city of Cleveland has ever issued, and has commended his candidacy, for the Republican nomination for mayor this fall, to the great masses of Republicans and intelligent people generally, in the strongest-possible manner. It is certainly an exceptionally strong and concise statement, showing unmistakably an exceptional familiarity with municipal affairs, and a most commendable determination to do those things most needed by Greater Cleveland and in the shortest possible time, if nominated and re-elected to the position of mayor this fall. And, that is exactly what we expect to see done because of the phenomenal growth in popularity of his candidacy within the week. If Mayor Tom Johnson is to be defeated in November, the Republicans of this community must be led by a fearless and sterling campaign, a man whose exceptional knowledge of municipal affairs, and whose record on the burning issue *s* the campaign, are such as to commend him to the masses of the people of this city. Such a man, is ex-Mayor Robert E. McKison. to learn something more than just how to read and write, the city of Charleston refuses the authority compels him to pay term bills at a missionary normal school whose slender income is eaked out by the annual appropriation of some thousands of dollars from New York. "Not a dollar?" No, not a dollar from northern promoters of education for the Shaw primary school, but a constant stream of money and a noble succession of self-sacrificing teachers for the next higher grades. And out of the hundreds of the graduates have been the superior class of Nerries in Charleston. Nevertheless, we hold that, apart from his terror of Negro domination, Colonel Hemphill is one of the most influential forces for peace and good order in South Carolina. He hates all lawlessness, fights the pistol habit, and wishes the Negroes to be benevolently governed. —N. Y. Independent. NEW FIELD FOR COLLEGE MEN A Practical Street Railway Training School Has Been Planned by a New York Man. New York City.-A practical street railway training school, the first one of its kind in the country, has been planned by Oren Root, Jr., general manager of the Metropolitan Street Railway Co. The expenses of the school, which will be open to college and scientific school graduates, will be borne by the railway company. The pupils will be paid living wages while taking the two-year course. The difficulty of obtaining high-class men who are willing to begin at the bottom and learn the street railway business was what led Mr. Root to try the experiment. The prospectus of the school and application blanks have been mailed to the presidents of 19 colleges and scientific schools. NEW FUEL FOR POWER PLANTS John Jacob Astor Has Applied for a Patent for a Machine to Utilize Peat Deposits. New York City.—Col. John Jacob Astor has applied for a patent for a machine which, it is hoped, will make possible the utilization of peat deposits as a fuel for power. The current number of the Scientific American, containing an account of the process, says that Col. Astor intends to present it to the public in the hope that it may be of wide general use. Col. Astor is about to try out his invention with his own place, Rhineliece-on-the-Hindon. He will erect a 150-horsepower plant and attach it to a stone crusher. If the peat gas succeeds in running this it is believed an interesting engineering advance with far-reaching effects will have been achieved. ST.PAUL PIONEER-PRESS SOLD It Is Understood that the Two Papers Will be Issued from the Dispatch Plant. St. Paul, Minn.—The Pioneer-Press announces that the owners of the St. Paul Dispatch have purchased the controlling interest in the Pioneer Press. The announcement says: "Our reasons for making the sale were, first, that the price was satisfactory. The stock of the company was widely scattered and much of it in the hands of owners not in a position to take business risks. Further, the wide distribution has always made difficult the concentration of authority so necessary in newspaper management." It is understood that the evening edition of the Pioneer Press will be discontinued and that the two papers will be issued from the Dispatch plant. Palmist Got His Coin. Maarysville, O.-A. W.

Shever called on the man and was told during a seance that $16,000 was buried on his farm, and that the "professor" would go to the farm and locate the money for $26. The amount was cheerfully paid, but Shever is still waiting for the professor to show him the $16,000. All he has is a receipt for the $26. Insurance Broker Suicides.

Three large fraternal orders are at present conducting sanatoria for their tuberculous members. The Royal League, the first order to take up this form of work in the United States, has a sanatorium at Black Mountain, North Carolina. The Modern Woodmen have recently opened a sanatorium at Colorado Springs; and the Knights of Pythias, one at the East Las Vegas, New Mexico. The Royal Arcanum and the Brotherhood of American Yeomen will consider propositions at their coming grand councils for the erection of similar institutions. Our Wonderful Language. "Out of sight in that gown, isn't she?" observed a gentleman in the balcony, pointing to Mrs. de Koltay, who occupied a front seat in one of the lower tier of boxes. "Out of sight? Well, hardly. It strikes me it is the other way about" responded his companion drily. Which goes to show the elasticity of the American language, which says one thing and means another. It also shows—but, upon second thought, we must respectfully but firmly decline going into any further details—Bohemian. The Cause of War The fair young debutante was surrounded by an admiring crowd of officers at the colenel's ball. Mamma was standing near by, smiling complacently at her daughter's social success. The discussion was over the quarrel of the day before between two brother officers. "What was the casus belli?" asked the fair debutante. "Maud!" exclaimed mamma in a shocked voice. "How often have I told you to say stomach?"—Success Magazine. THINK HARD The unthinking life some people lead often causes trouble and sickness, illustrated in the experience of a lady in Fond Du Lac, Wis. "About four years ago I suffered dreadfully from indigestion, always having eaten whatever I liked, not thinking of the digestible qualities. This indigestion caused palpitation of the heart so badly I could not walk up a flight of stairs without sitting down once or twice to regain breath and strength. "I became alarmed and tried dieting, wore my clothes very loose, and many other remedies, but found no relief. "Hearing of the virtues of Grape Nuts and Postum, I commenced using them in place of my usual breakfast of coffee, cakes, or hot biscuit, and in one week's time I was relieved of sour stomach and other lil's attending indigestion. In a month's time my heart was performing its functions naturally and I could climb stairs and hills and walk long distances. "I gained ten pounds in this short time, and my skin became clear and I completely regained my health and strength. I continue to use Grape-Nuts and Postum for I feel that I owe my good health entirely to their use. "There's a Reason." "I like the delicious flavour of Grape-Nuts and by making Postum according to directions, it tastes similar to mild high grade coffee." Read "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs.

I suffered from female trouble and fearful pains in my back. I had the best doctors and they all deceived that I had a tumour in addition to my female trouble, and advised an operation. Lyda E.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound made me for me."—Mrs. Emmia MSE, 883 FirstSt, Milwaukee, WI.

STREET AND NO..... STATE.... Two Arctic Enemies. Since the beginning of time there probably has been enmity between the polar bear and the walrus. Except for the walrus, brains' reign over the arctic regions has been almost unchallenged since the race of mammoths passed. All the hardy flesh eaters that inhabit the bleak, unfertile northland are his natural prey. But most of all he depends upon the seals and sea lions for his food. There is only one animal that is powerful enough to defend itself and offspring against the polar bear's attack—the huge and cumbrous walrus; but its movements are so slow and awkward when out of the water that often it is impossible for the bulky animal to retard its smaller opponent—St Nicholas. Don't Poison Baby. Don't Poison Baby. FORTY YEARS AGO almost every mother thought her child must have PAREGORIC or laudanum to make it sleep. These drugs will produce sleep, and A FEW DROPS TOO MANY will produce the SLEEP FROM WHICH THERE IS NO WAKING. Many are the children who have been killed or whose health has been ruined for life by paregoric, laudanum and morphine, each of which is a narcotic product of opium. Druggists are prohibited from selling either of the narcotics named to children at all, or to anybody without labelling them "poison." The definition of "narcotic" is: "A medicine which relieves pain and produces sleep, but which in poisonous doses produces stupor, coma, convulsions and death." The taste and smell of medicines containing opium are disguised, and sold under the names of "Drops," "Cordials," "Soothing Syrups," etc. You should not permit any medicine to be given to your children without you or your physician know of what it is composed.
