UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
WOODROW WILSON CARRIES 37 STATES
DEMOCRATS CONTROL HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES BY ONE HUNDRED OR MORE.
REPUBLICANS LOSE SENATE
Uncle Joe Cannon and William B. McKinley, Jr., Congressmen From Illinois, Are Defeated by Roosevelt Vote.
New York City.—The latest returns from the election show that Wilson and Marshall have carried at least 37 states with a total of 412 electoral votes; that Roosevelt has carried six states with an electoral vote of 104 and that Taft has carried three and perhaps four states, with only 12 or 15 votes in the electoral college.
As the count proceeds Iowa, Kansas and Minnesota were found to be wavering between Wilson and Roosevelt, with Wilson slightly in the lead in all three. Placing these and Wyoming and South Dakota, where the vote is close, in the doubtful column, Wilson has 287 certain votes in the electoral college, Roosevelt 89 and Taft 12.
The control of the house of representatives by a majority of 100 or more was early established. That the United States senate, held by the Republicans by the narrow margin of nine votes, will also be Democratic after March 4, there is little doubt.
In the latest news from Illinois it was found that not only had Uncle Joe Cannon been swept to defeat by the Roosevelt vote, but that William B. McKinley, Mr. Taft's campaign manager, who made a bitter pre-convention fight upon the colonel, had also been beaten. The Roosevelt plurality in Illinois dwindled through the day, but final returns gave him the state safely, although Edward F. Dunne, formerly mayor of Chicago, was elected governor by the Democrats.
Michigan, Kansas, Oregon and Arizona joined the ranks of the states in which women will be given the suffrage. But Col. Roosevelt, despite his personal insistence on a woman's suffrage plank in the Progressive platform, did not carry a single state in which women were voting.
more than 8,000, Baldwin, Democrat, was elected governor by 14,000.
Delaware — Wilson had things his own way in this state, Roosevelt and Taft being left at the post.
Florida — The Wilson plurality in Florida is above 40,000.
Colorado—That the Democratic majority in the legislature has been greatly increased as a result of the election is certain. Gov. Shaffron will be elected United States senator to

TEDDYCONGRATULATESWILSON
Oyster Bay, N. Y.—Colonel Roosevelt sent the following telegram to Gov. Wilson when it became evident from the returns that the latter had been elected president. The American by a great plurality conferred upon you the highest honor within their gift. I congratulate you thereon. When the private telegraph wire leading into a room on the second floor of Col. Theodore Roosevelt's home told him that he had been over-

succeed Guggenheim, Republican, and former Gov. Charles S. Thomas will be named to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Senator Charles E. Hughes, Jr., over which the last legislature went into a deadlock. Georgia—The state, as usual, went Democratic. Chattanooga county, Mrs. Wilson's home, gave the new president 2,500 plurality. Indiana—Wilson by 133,000, with Taft second and T. R. far behind, is the Indiana result. Samuel Ralston, Democrat, beat Albert J. Beveridge for governor.

"The American people by a great plurality have decided in favor of Mr. Wilson and the Democratic party.
Like all good citizens, I accept the result with entire good humor and contentment.
As for the Progressive cause, I can only repeat what I have already so many times said: the fate of the leader for the time being is of little consequence, but the cause it must in the end triumph, for its triumph is essential to the well being of the American people."

Confessed Slayer is Sentenced.
New York City — "Red Phil" Davidson, confessed murderer of the gang leader, "Big Jack" Zellig, was sentenced by Justice Goff in the criminal branch of the supreme court to imprisonment in Sing Sing for not less than 30 years nor more than life. Red Phil shot Zellig on a street car Oct. 5, asserting that the gangster had robbed him of $500 though the district attorney's office believed that Zellig had been put out of the way so that he could not testify against Phil.
COX WINS IN THE BUCKEYE STATE
DAYTON MAN HEADING DEMO CRATIC TICKET IS ELECTED BY LARGE PLURALITY.
BIG VOTE IN ALL COUNTIES
Day Passes Without Incident of Note at Any Point, Report of Disturbances Being Few and Far Between.
Columbus, O.—Woodrow Wilson for president and James M. Cox for governor swept Ohio.
Cox was elected by a clear majority over the vote cast for Arthur L. Garford, Progressive, and Gen. R. B. Brown, Republican. The vote for Cox ran far ahead of that cast for Wilson for president, although it appears that Wilson has carried the state by over 100,000.
The Cox majority may reach the unprecedented plurality of 200,000. He will have the largest plurality ever given a candidate or governor in the state.
Indications are that President Taft has run second in Ohio, Roosevelt, according to latest returns, showed
JAMES M. COX.
surprising weakness in the state. President Taft ran far ahead of the colonel in the southern part of Ohio and Roosevelt did not poll the vote expected in the northern end of the state.
The returns indicate that the Republicans of Ohio rejected the Roosevelt proposition—that of abandoning the Republican party.
The result of the election has given Ohio governmental affairs wholly to the Democrats. The entire Democratic state ticket has been carried to victory in a notable manner. Nearly all the counties heard from have been carried by the Democrats. The legislature in both branches will be in control of the Democrats and the party managers are claiming the election of 19 Democratic congressmen with the result of the other two districts in doubt. County after county that has been in the Republican column for generations has been turned over to the Democrats. The defeat of the Republican state organization has been complete, although it apparently has saved for itself the second place in the state.

candidate, and for Mr. Debs, the Socialist candidate, is a warning that their propaganda in favor of fundamental changes in our constitutional representative government has formidable support. While the experiment of a change in the tariff is being carried out by the Democratic administration it behooves Republicans to gather again to the party standard and pledge anew their faith in their party's principles and to organize again to defend the constitutional government, handed down to us by our fathers."
AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS
Memphis, the county seat of Shelby county, Tennessee, founded in 1826 and chartered as a city in 1849, called the Bluff City, 119 miles west of Nashville, is one of the chief commercial cities of the south and one of the most important cotton markets in the United States. The growth of this city, both in population and commerce, has been remarkable. The population has grown from less than 9,000 to 131,105 in 1910. There are only five cities in the United States that have larger negro populations than Memphis. The last census shows negro population in six cities as follows: Washington, D. C., 94,446; New York, 91,702; New Orleans, 89,256; Baltimore, 84,749; Philadelphia, 84,459; Memphis, 52,441. There are in Shelby county, however, between 90,000 and 100,000. The new union depot which cost five million dollars, with equal accommodations for both races, the imposing scrappers, the beautifully shaded and paved streets, the costly residences, the 1,000 acres of lovely public parks, the junction of several great railroads, the trolley cars threading the avenues in every direction, the numerous factories, public buildings, costly and spacious churches, add to the charm of this most wonderful southern city, situated on the great Father of Waters." The spirit of progress is contagious. The colored people of this city have caught the spirit. Many of them have made good. They have been helped and encouraged by the white neighbors. This is very gratifying. As evidence of the material advancement, it is interesting to note that the value of the output of the various manufacturing establishments in this city has grown from a little more than one and a half million dollars in 1850 to over thirty million dollars in 1912, an increase of two thousand per cent.
The negro's best friends are found in the south. Here is an instance: In Judge Miller's court room the other day a negro youth was tried on the charge of theft. His employer, a well-known Dallas woman who is prominent in social circles, believed him innocent. The evidence was entirely circumstantial. She saw that the boy had a good lawyer, and she appeared as a witness in his behalf. The jury heard her story and promptly acquitted the negro, for the 12 men were fair-minded southerners who believe in giving the negro with a good record the benefit of the doubt. There is no blind prejudice against the black in the south. There is no race problem here, because the south is not careless in its social relations. The negro finds his real haven of refuge in Dixieland where he can always get a job, a square meal and a square deal. He knows the people are not his pretended friends when he tries to do right, and that they will fight for him when he is unjust treated—Dallas Times-Herald.
Christian philosophy was designed from the beginning to keep the children of the woman and the sons of the man in their proper relation to one another in the home, the church and the state, so that the human race might be perpetuated, as the races before the Christian era were not. The thoughtful women of the negro race should study this matter. What the race needs are men, and it can't have them if the negro women follow their white sisters out of the home and family making into the world of affairs where they must cease to be women and cannot be men.—New York Age.
The ancient Guild of Spectacle Makers is numerically one of the strongest of London companies. Its charter dates from the year 1629, and though the exact date of its origin is lost, there is ample evidence that the calling of spectacle maker was extensively followed at a very early date. An old book of 1563 mentions the spectacle makers among other traders, and the biography of Carl Zeno, an illustrious Venetian, who died in 1418, mentions that even at the age of eighty-four he needed no artificial aids to his sight. So presumably spectacles were common in Italy five centuries ago.
At Seattle Doctor Crichton has ordered the use of Puget sound sea water to lay the dust and flush the streets. "Salt water is one of the best germicides in the world," says Doctor Crichton. "Sea water contains several grains of chloride of sodium to the gallon, and within a few days the city's streets will become white with sodium chloride and the action of the sun's rays on this will produce chloride gas, one of the very best disinfectants known to science."
The Philadelphia Traction company has been experimenting with women conductors, in order to minimize the trouble it has with men and to reduce the cost of operating expenses. If the experiment succeeds the men conductors will have to go, as the ticket sellers have gone, and the motormen will be in danger of losing their jobs. After a woman has been a trolley car conductor for a month who would have her for a wife? The ages of woman masculinity and rule have always been the death ages of man femininity and rule.

The average Chinaman knows how to keep silent when everybody else is talking. The average negro knows how to talk when everybody else is keeping silent. The two attitudes are not the same. The Chinaman learns a great deal by keeping his mouth shut and the negro forgets a great deal by keeping his mouth open. What a man learns and what a man forgets are not the same. Dr. Sun-Yat-Sen, who did so much to make the Chinese Republic possible, and was its provisional president, has been silent for months while the press of the world was trying to make it appear that the Chinese republic was on the verge of disruption because Dr. Sen and President Shikad were at loggerheads over everything. Dr. Sen now breaks his silence in a Nankin interview to the New York Sun to declare that, personally, his relations with the president are cordial, and that their differences are only such as exist between statemen in all countries who work together for the common welfare. He says: "I believe I can safely say that upon one matter of first importance all the leaders in China are of one mind: The best good of the country. As to how this may be attained is quite another matter, but we are all striving and working for the meritorious and noble end." No one thinks of a civil war in the United States simply because Mr. Tatt. Mr. Wilson and Mr. Roosevelt do not agree upon matters of public policy. Each of these gentlemen is certainly a true American and a patriot of a very high order. Yet there are—if my knowledge of American affairs is worthy—many great and vital issues upon which they disagree totally. May it not be so in China?—New York Age.
"Negro Year Book"—whoheard of such a thing? "Annual Encyclopedia of the Negro"—whoheard thought of devoting a whole volume of a year book and encyclopedia to any single race of people? Here it is, however, and it comes from Tuskegee. No one claims to have shown originality in thinking of it. It bears the name of Monroe N. Work, "In charge of research and records." Out of these records, at first only of the students and graduates of Tuskegee, and then of the negro population, this first of all race books seems to have grown. Behind a desk of the Chicago Theological seminary 14 years ago a young negro student, Work by name, sat for three years. With ploiding persistence he studied and struggled his way through to graduation. Ever loyal to his race, he eagerly learned all he could from them and the whites how to help them help themselves. He began at the beginning in looking about him here in Chicago, to find out what the actual conditions of his people were. In the south he continued to look for facts on which to base the means and plans which Tuskegee and other schools for life and work were devising and carrying out. And now from his card catalogue of "case records" and race facts comes this new and valuable attempt to register the progress of a race in the "Negro Year Book and Annual Encyclopedia." Although it is but a beginning, it is credible enough to him and his people to mark an epoch in their hostory.—Tuskegee Student.

Five hundred Cuban negroes captured in the lace uprising in the province of Oriente have been rounded ng in the jails of Havana for safe keeping, as the other fails are already overcrowded. The Latin people like to play at revolution, and those who succeed fare sumptuously for a season, while those who fail, if captured, are very sure of having their heads cut off. If the Latin-American people should spend one-half the time in building up their governments that they do in striving to tear them down they would be a great and progressive people. For example, Mexico has lost in the past twelve months of internecine war what she had gained in thirty years of domestic peace. President Diaz ruled with a strong hand for a long period of years, but under Mexico was prosperous at home and had abundant credit abroad.
If America's annual candy supply were loaded on one train there would be over 8,000 trucks full of boxes, buckets and glass jars. This load of sweetmeats for the sweet tooth of the American girls costs the consumers about $125,000,000 every year.

What then? The answer is to be found in the death of Egypt, Babylon, Carthage, Greece and Rome before the Christian era.

TAFT AND ROOSEVELT.
It was fortunate for our voters, this fall, that at least two of the three leading Presidential candidates had been chief executives of this great country and had developed their "Negro policies," involving our political status and civil rights. There is no better time than now, in the light of Tuesday's election, to again view the principles and results of these two national policies and to note their of fect upon our progress and civil en environment during the past five or six years.
Aside from his repudiation of the republican platform and his absolute disruption of the republican party, the only thing which President Taft has succeeded, is his perfect execution and successful performance of the inaugural announcement against Negro citizens. It is quite impossible to recite here all the many things which he has done in this connection, but it might be well to call attention to a few of the chief facts incident to his new southern policy:
(1) The discharge of 128 Negro fourth class postmasters.
(2) The discharge of Henry A. Rucker, the last Colored Georgia official, though endorsed by the best whites of his state, as well as our people.
(3) The dismissal of Joshua A. Wilson, Colored postmaster at Florence, S. C., though endorsed by a majority of whites and blacks in that section.
(4) The dismissal of over 108 Colored Federal appointees in Texas.
(5) The discharge of Mr. Christian, Colored postmaster for 25 years at Yorktown, Virginia, over the protest of the white and our business men.
(6) The reduction of Dr. John M. Prather and Hon Jere A. Brown in the immigration service because they were Colored.
(7) The refusal of R. Benjamin Bundy, a consular appointment, because of color.
(8) The order to Census Director Durand, not to permit Colored enumerators to count white people in the south.
(9) His statement in a letter to Fisk University, that the Negro race should be treated separate and distinct from the white race.
The Principle of the Roosevelt Negro Policy.

close of the Spanish-American war, accused of cowardice the black soldiers who saved his life and those of the "Rough Riders" in Cuba; discharged one hundred and sixty-seven innocent members of "The Black Battalion" at Brownville, Texas, has persecuted them ever since, and insists that they are guilty of a crime that was never committed—this even after they had been seven times proven innocent; saved from the national convention of the so-called "Progressive" or "Cureall" party the Afro-Americans of the south, and finally, even in the recent campaign, had the temerity to attack the outraged "Black Battalion," some of whom were among those who saved his and his "Rough Riders" lives in Cuba during the Spanish-American war. It was Roosevelt who bounded cur great and good friend, Senator Joseph Benson Foraker, from the U. S. Senate and public life, because of his great battle for "The Black Battalion," which resulted in proving their entire innocence of the outrageous "Brownville" charge.
With the foregoing, as regards both Taft and Roosevelt, in mind—for it was fairly well understood by the great majority of our voters—and the additional knowledge that the solid democratic south was "in the saddle" in this campaign, for the first time since the war of the rebellion and controlling national democracy whose candidate, President-elect Woodrow Wilson, was a southerner by birth, tradition, etc., little wonder that Afro-American voters generally were so greatly divided between the Taft and Roosevelt portions of the republican party, while some even allied themselves with the democratic party under the leadership of Bishop Alexander Walters, than whom the race has no more intelligent, conscientious, loyal and aggressive leader.
President-elect Wilson's Promise.
In this hour of great depression for the great mass of our people, the one ray of light to which The Gazette can point them for some consolation and encouragement, is the following paragraph from President-elect Woodrow Wilson's letter (published in our last issue) to Bishop Alexander Walters, under the recent date, Oct. 16, 1912: "The Colored people of the United States have made extraordinary progress toward self-support and usefulness, and ought to be encouraged in every possible and proper way. My sympathy with them is of long standing, and I want to assure them through you that should I become President of the United States, they may count upon me for absolute fair dealing and for everything by which I could assist in advancing the interest of their race in the United States."
JOHNSON WILL GO TO RUSSIA.
..Chicago, Ill.—Jack Johnson has sold his saloon for $25,000, and will leave Nov. 30 for Russia.

BISHOP WALTERS ON ROOSEVELT
HIS AMBITION FOR OFFICE.
Head of African Zion Church Uses Strong Language In Discussing the Political Career of the Bull Moose Candidate For the Presidency Brownville Incident Recalled.
Bishop Alexander Walters, president National Colored Democratic league, has returned to New York from Washington, where he delivered the oration at the emancipation celebration. The bishop was found at his desk at an early hour, directing the fight which is being made under the auspices of the organization over which he presides to elect Wilson and Marshall. In discussing Theodore Roosevelt and his Progressive party the bishop says:
"When Theodore Roosevelt returned from Cuba in 1898 he had no idea of running for office. The first thing he did was to write a book to tell the people of his brave deeds at San Juan Hill. It was characteristic of the man that in extolling his own achievements he should cast a slur on those who had made it possible for him to return home alive. Nothing but the basset ingratitude could have prompted him to say in his book that Negro soldiers were inefficient unless officered by white men.
"But this is what he said, although those same Negro soldiers had thus
BISHOP ALEXANDER WALTERS.
saved his life. Conscience would have prevented most men from carrying ingratitude to any greater limits. But Colonel Roosevelt was not yet satisfied. He must say something more about Negro soldiers that would at once do them more harm and advertise his own valor in battle. He could only do this by resorting to falsehood, and his unscrupulous nature came to the rescue.
"According to his own written words, he personally drew his revolver and compelled a number of struggling Negro soldiers to go up San Juan hill. This statement would be conical if it were not for the lying motive which prompted it. That a man whose life had thus been saved by Negro troops should come fresh from the field and accuse them of inefficiency and even cowardice surpasses all ordinary conceptions of ingratitude and marks that man as one who would trample his best friend under foot for the sake of personal glory.
"It was not long after this slander on the Negro troops was written that Colonel Roosevelt became a candidate for governor of New York. It has been one of the failings of the Negro in a political way that he soon forgets an injury under the influence of a little flattery, and Candidate Roosevelt was then, as he is now, a past master in the art of flattery. He captured a majority of the Negro vote by flattering the Negro citizen just as lavishly as he had condemned the Negro soldier. And some people believed it.
"After he was elected governor he again became the real Roosevelt, and the colored voters received but little consideration at his hands. He was approached on the subject of a Negro regiment for the New York national guard, but the committee that waited upon him could get no satisfaction. When he was elected vice president

---
he never dreamed that he would go any higher. The untimely death of President McKinley lifted him to the presidency, and he immediately began to organize a steam roller to effect his nomination in 1904. And now again we find him catering to the Negro in his speech at the Lincoln monument in Illinois, where he promised every one a square deal-in his appointment of Dr. Crum and in his closing of the Indianola postoffice.
"All of these acts were those of a canning politician bent on gaining the political support of a confiding people. Then we come down to his second term, when he had no idea of seeking a third term. A few Negro soldiers at
Brownsville, Tex., had been accused of shooting up the town. The case was investigated at once, and Colonel Roosevelt decided to dismiss the entire battalion stationed there for a crime which has not been proved against any of the men and has never been proved to this day. At this time the election for governor of New York was pending, and Colonel Roosevelt wanted Hughes elected over Hearest.
"He feared that his Brownsville decision would be resented at the poles by Negro voters in New York and deliberately held back the publication of his act until the day after his election of Mr. Hughes and then run away to Porto Rico, leaving his secretary of war to bear the storm of public indignation. This is the Roosevelt who is now asking Negro voters to support him for another term. This is the man who boasts of courage and virtue, but who did not hesitate to resort to such duplicity as that of the holding back of an unpopular decision for three months until the election was over in his own state. The name of Brownsville should be indelibly impressed upon the memory of every Negro voter in America. It should be remembered just as the Maine was remembered when the first gun was fired against Spain in 1898.
"The entire career of Colonel Roosevelt has been one of hypocrisy and inconsistency. He uses both Negro and white men wherever they will suit his purposes. He is now trying to use the Negro of the north, while trampling under foot the Negro of the south. Posing as a great moralist, who sees only the sublime side of all things, he nevertheless approves the disfranchisement of the Negro in the south all because the southern Negro refused to desert Taft at Chicago. Had the colonel himself been nominated by the Republican convention there would have been no cry of fraud, no Progressive party and no elimination of the Negro delegates from the south.
"The Progressive party is nothing but the wall of one unscrupulous man, drunk with a mixture of ambition and malice, determined to kill the party that thwarted his will. Theodore Roosevelt is neither a progressive nor a reactionary. He is anything and everything that will suit his purposes for the time being—a demagogue of transcendent genius, a sublime hypocrite and pseudo moralist who lives for the gratification of personal vanity."
LESSONS FROM RECENT
ELECTION IN VERMONT.
Republican Disaffection Gives Democratic Party Fresh Ammunition.
After Vermont, Democratic victory? That is the silent but certain meaning of the confusion of the ballots cast at the recent election, says the Newark (N. J) National Conservator.
The Green Mountain men, rock ribbed in their Republicanism since the birth of the Republican party, refuse to give that party a majority of their votes and put the election of governor into the uncertain hands of the legislature.
The result further shows that Mr. Roosevelt has seriously disrupted the Republican party and made Democratic victory for Wilson and Marshall possible. But we must not be too certain. The Democratic chieftains need not foolishly imagine that they have a cinch.
One swallow does not make a summer, and you can't slay the G. O. P. elephant by one kick from the jackass. Mr. Roosevelt is playing monkey with a vengeance, but his antics only serve to whet the fighting spirit of militant Republicans.
If the Democratic managers are up to date they will brace up, take a draft of the same sort of fighting tonic which inspires their heroic commander and—go to it!
LATEST WHITE MAN'S HOPE.
What Jack Johnson Says About Rose-
with the Uniforms: Jealousy
Jack Johnson takes a semilimorous, semipathetic view of Colonel Theodore Roosevelt's attitude toward the colored people, which is embodied in the Progressive candidate's recent "confession of faith" in the editorial column of the Outlook. Says the big champion: "The colonel seems to be the latest 'white man's hope,' but since he has always been such a good sportsman in the past it grieves me to see him violate the rules of the game.
"He has grossly fouled the Negro by smashing him one below the Mason and Dixon's line. The weakest part of the Negro politically is below the belt. He is all unprotected there, and it wasn't a square deal for the colonel to hit him on the weakest spot.
"Now he is felting and sparring for wind with a view to registering a solar plexus on the northern part of our racial anatomy, and if we are caught mapping with our mitts down--bing! And away goes the race, down and out to take the count from which there is no come back.
"And to think." added the big fellow ruefully. "the colored man has always been in the colonel's corner and rubbed him and trained him and backed him for so many victories."

Dear Doctor:—Considering the terrible strain you recently put upon the confidence of your friends do you think it quite in keeping with the internal fitness of the student to assume a judgment upon popup Jack Johnson? Is he not as much a victim of race prejudice as any man today within or without the boundaries of Christendom? For if he were not Black would a word have been heard about the whole affair?
Of the ninety millions of people in this Nation you, it seems to me, should the very last list to assume the role that you felt called upon to play on this occasion.

REACH U. S. AFTER HARDSHIPS
Mother and Three Tots Walk 250
Miles; Sleep in Fields to Save
Money.
New York—"M but that's a game bunch," said an immigration officer as he passed Mrs. Mary Skivinek and her three children, Edna, 'nine; Josef, seven, and Anne, five, through the barge office.
Five years ago the woman's husband, Josef, a farmer of Berau, in Bohemia, determined to seek his fortune in the new world. By hard work and self-denial they finally sent him on his way, and later heard from him in Colorado. A year ago his letters ceased, and the mother decided to follow. By selling everything she owned, the mother secured money which she thought enough for the journey. To make doubly sure, she and the little ones trudged the 250 miles from Berau to Bremen, carrying their little bundles of clothing. It cost less than ten cents a day for food and they slept in the fields. It was a month's journey to Bremen, and there they engaged passage in the steerage of the steamer Neckar, and reached here a few weeks ago. It was decided they were not likely to become public charges and were allowed to enter.

BIG FUEL SHIP IS LAUNCHED
U. S. Fuel Vessel Jupiter is First Electrically Driven Seagoing
Vallejo, Cal.-The United States fuel ship Jupiter, the first electrically driven sea-going vessel ever built and the largest ship of any description ever laid down on the Pacific Coast, was launched at the Mare Island Navy Yard. The Jupiter will make about 14 knots an hour. She is 572 feet long by 65 feet beam, draws 27 feet 6 inches, displaces 19,360 tons, and has carrying capacity of 12,500 tons of coal and 375,000 gallons of fuel oil. The keel was laid in October 16 last, and the hull has been built in record time, at a saving of nearly $100,000 over the appropriation of $1,200,000 allowed by Congress.
Power is supplied by a 14,000-horse power electric generator. Coal can be loaded from the Jupiter into a warship at the rate of 100 tons an hour, and duplex pumps will permit her to take in or pump out oil to another vessel at the rate of 120,000 gallons an hour.

JACK JOHNSON'S DEFL
What He Said at a Mass Meeting of Our People He Was Invented
Chicago. Ill.—Jack Johnson, speaking before an immense mass meeting of our people last week Wednesday night, defied the world to dictate to him in affairs of the heart. He claimed the same right as a white man to follow the distates of his eyes and hands. "All this agitation is because I am a Colored man!" he shouted, and the audience applauded him. The prize fighter made his plea before prominent Colored citizens of Chicago at the Appommato Club, in Wabash avenue. He had been invited to present his case, denied, with one word: "The Bible that he told to Mrs. Cameron-Falconet, mother of Lucile Cameron, that he could "get any white woman in Chicago."
"I have been quoted falsely," he said. "The newspapers and the public have taken advantage of me because of my color. If I were a white man not a line of this would have reached the newspapers. I assert that I have as much right as a white man to choose whom I want. I am a man. I am a man. I am a man. I am a right to use them. When the time comes that I am not capable of choosing for myself I want to be in a lunatic asylum. My father and mother both were Christians. I am a Christian. I say that as I put my hand on this Bible and swear that I never told Mrs. Falconet that I could get any white woman in Chicago that I wanted. My relations with Lucile Cameron always have been honorable. After his plea, resolutions were drawn up asking for fair play for Johnson and requesting the public to withhold judgment until he had been tried in court.

THE "PORO" SYSTEM of Scalp and Hair treatment is based on the latest scientific and sanitary methods, effecting a healthy scalp thus promoting a growth of beautiful hair. The "Poro" preparations used in connection with the treatment are made and sold exclusively by myself, having the exclusive right to that name; and I, alone, know the secret of the composition that bears that name. Our claim has always been that when the hair begins to grow as the result of the treatment, it will continue to do so if only the scalp and hair be kept clean. This sanitary method of treatment is also having the desired effect in helping to prevent the spread of diseases, for it is a fact that hair in an unsanitary condition carries the germs of disease which often prove fatal to innocent persons coming in contact with them.

The following shows how Editor Barret of the Afro-American Review, "plays foot-ball" with the originator of the local daily paper's recent foolish tale of a $100,000 hotel" in this city for our people. He might have added that original stock-holders of the People's Drug Store also have a tale of a summe of white money, a year ago, a number of white money, the idea of starting a great insurance company for the benefit almost solely of 'Colored people.' They were to have branches all over the country. And people who bought stock, especially 'Colored people,' were to get positions in every department of the business. They named it the Fred Douglas. They felt they could get us easy by so doing. They hired a rather prominent 'Colored man' in this city to be one of the agents to go among the 'Colored people,' among his friends as well as among those whom he did not know and ask them to buy stock on the pretense that they would eventually get positions in the company. They felt they could get us easy here and elsewhere and sold considerable stock, the only tangibility of its existence being the paper it was written on. Stockholders were to receive a dividend. They failed to get their dividends. Not only is this true, but this company has never had an official meeting since its existence to declare the need for anything in their firm here and elsewhere. This same gentleman, having failed in the Fred Douglas Life Insurance Co. by not doing as he agreed to do, is planning to get some more easy money by building a $100,000 hotel. We are and always have been unalterably and diametrically opposed to 'big Afro-Americans fooling and deceiving them to commit anything.' The failure of the True Reformers bank, the wreck of the Metropolitan and Mercantile Realty Company is fresh within our minds. These failures and similar ones, men of the type of the man whom we have been describing above, who do not stop to think, we don't stop to realize that we are willing to enter any scheme, are the real traitors to the race. We are going to watch this $100,000 hotel scheme. It might be another 'Fred Douglas' fizzle."
Eight Who Deserve Slaps.
Eight men who deserve to be skipped on the face: He who despises a man of power; he who enters a house uninvited and unwelcomed; he who gives orders in a house not his own; he who takes a seat above his position; he who speaks to one who does not listen to him; he who intrudes on the conversation of others; he who seeks favors from the ungenerous; and he who expects love from his enemies.—From a Persian Saying.
There is something finer than to do right against inclination, and that is to have an inclination to do right. There is something nobler than reluctant obedience, and that is joyful obedience. The rank of virtue is not measured by its disagreeableness, but by its sweetness to the heart that loves it. The real test of character is joy. For what you rejoice in, that you love. And what you love, that you are like—Henry van Dyke.
Be Careful in Speech
If in our speech we would need consider how our words will affect those to whom they are spoken—if we would try to hear them with their ears and consider how they accept in their hearts, there would not be much passionate or unadvised speech; certainly there would be few spirits wounded or lives embittered by the words of our lips.—W. G. Horder.
Accentuating Plant Characters
Accentuating Plant Characters. It has been found that under red light (light through red glass) plants become more robust than in any other. They also become more pronounced in their chief characters—the leafy plant becomes more leafy, all shades of green become more pronounced, the sensitive plant more sensitive and all in every way become highly specialized.

Brown Apartments are so Named for John J. Brown By the M. A. Bradley Co.-Why This Was Done.

Bradley, the janitor of their apartments. The Flower and Willsonia, at the corner of E. 55th St. and Superior Ave. He has "made good," and The Gazette is desirous of letting its readers, particularly our young men, know what hard "plugging" and good, steady work will do. During this period Mr. Brown has been given increase in salary, a woman-assistant, and quite recently, an assistant fireman. He has passed both fireman and engineer examinations by an inspector that unless he passed the examinations, he would have to quit his position. Only a week's time was given him to prepare for

them, in one instance, and four days, in another. He has also fitted himself as a masseur. The Bradley Co. is just finishing a new apartment adjoining its present property which Mr. Brown will also have charge and run the affairs of. Mr. Fred Watson of the company seemed particularly interested in him—to the extent that Mr. Alva Bradley approached Mr. Brown recently and told him that the new apartment would be named after him and be called "Brown apartments," as he had worked hard and faithfully to make it a success and allot to all the company had to attend to for the company ever since he had entered its employ. This is encouraging, and The Gazette congratulates not only Mr. Brown but also the M. A. Bradley Co.
All Have a Duty.
Every man or woman is one of mankind's dear possessions; to his or her just brain, and kind heart and active hands, mankind intrusts some of its hopes for the future—Robert Louis Stevenson.

MISERABLE ACCOMODATION
Councilman Fitzgerald in Hearty Acord With The Gazette—The New Routing of the Central Av. Car Line is a Force. 1912
Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor of The Gazette. My Dear Sir: I am in receipt of a marked copy of The Gazette containing an editorial on the present street car service on Central Ave. I am thoroughly in sympathy with the views therein expressed, and have voted against it. I will stop when resolutions for the same were presented to the City Council for approval. I believe that the plan advocated by the Street Railway Commissioner and sanctioned by Mayor Baker for faster service at the expense of public convenience is absolutely indefensible. The theory of surface judgment is that public convenience should not be subordinated to fast schedules, it being impossible to install express service on surface lines within city limits. The complaint in your editorial expresses the opinion of most of the people of Cleveland who are compelled to walk unreasonable distances in order to get a car. I regret that as the Council is at present constituted, I plan protest and vote against this policy for street-car stop elimination.
Thanking you for your courtesy in
mailing me the copy of The Gazette,
I remain.
Yours very truly.

‘to the $25,000,000 he received on at-
taining his thirtieth year, put Mr.
‘Vanderbilt in the ranks of the super-
‘readnaughts of American finance.
While the sum of Mr. Vanderbilt's
‘fortuna is set down at $50,000,000, it
4s believed by those who have made a
study of America’s great private for-
‘tunes that the holdings of young Mr.
Vanderbilt will exceed that amount by
several million dollars. This accre-
ition has come in spite of his prodigal
‘expenditures both in this country and
‘abroad.
Alfred G. Vanderbilt is now the
master of the wealth left by his fa-
ther for the resson that his elder
‘brother, Cornelius, lost favor with ‘his
Yather a few years before the latter's
‘death. Had ‘this not occurred the
great fortune would now be divided
equally between the two brothers.
‘The breach between Cornelius Van-
iMerbiit and his father was never heal-
‘ed, although members of the family
‘and close friends did all in their pow-
‘er to dissipate the elder Vanderbilt's
‘anger against his son. As a conse:
‘quence, Cornelius was cut oft with
ithe comparatively meager sum of
‘$1,500,000, but it 1s believed, in fact,
‘generally understood, that the “dis-
‘inhertted” son has not been obliged to
‘worry. along on his elim inheritance:
ithat both his brother Alfred and his
mother have contributed out of their
‘own patrimonies to his purse to the
vextent of $10,000,000 or $12,000,000.
While Alfred G. Vanderbilt has now
‘Decome one of America’s real wealthy
‘citizens, it is not generally believed
that it will have any special or direct
‘effect upon American finance so far
‘as active commerce 1s concerned.
‘Thin young millionaire seems never to
have had much fancy for business or
‘the manipulation of nance that in-
volves any greater intricacies than
‘the process of maintaining blooded
iorses and elegant apartments in
‘New York, London and Paris, conduct-
ing horse ‘shows and driving coaches.
‘This has been his habit for years and
At fs not to be expected therefore that

| ootey’s stand is at such direct va-
rianeo.with the glowing stories pub-
lished ‘in the many women's maga-
zines tint she was requested to give
her reasons for thus disagreeing with
the optimistic views on the question.
In the following exclusive interview
Miss Woolley said:
“Snobbery js not at the root of my
attitude, which, by the way, is being
taken by the majority of the women's
colleges, but a conviction that no girl
can well serve two masters—her col-
lege and her pocketbook.
“Before I go into my reasons for
taking so firm a stand on this ques-
tion, let me tell you something of the
place that Mount Holyoke holds in the
college world. ‘Then you can see why
my stand seems so radical. The im-
pression seems to obtain throughout
the country that this college was
founded for the poor girl, that it was
to be a college where a girl could
give service in return for an advanced
education. This was not the case and
it most certainly ts not the case today.
“We are celebrating our seventy:
fifth anniversary this week, and we
find that the high cost of living, of
which the world in general complains,
{s affecting all departments of our col
lege life. The girl of today has. to
have a great deal more money than
those early girls needed. If it was un-
wise for the girl of 1837 to work her
way when she needed but two hun-
dred dollars, is it not trebly unwise
for the girl of 1912 to try to do so
when she needs six or perhaps seven
hundred dollars?
“There are more opportunities, you
say, for the girl to make money. Yes,
but, alas, there are more girls for
those opportunities. When opportu.
nity knocks on the door today there
are frequently twenty eager girls
fushing to open it. With the growth
of fortunes and incomes our problems
have Increased rather than lessened,
“I have several speciis reasons for
my attitude on the work question.
One 48 the small amount that a girl
{8 paid for her labor—15 cents an
hour or less! Work demands a cer-
tain amount of physical labor. We
have reduced the houso service very
greatly and will, perhaps, do away
with it entirely Before long. At pres-
ent the girls make their beds, wash
silver and the glasses, and wait on the
tables, Those duties take about thirty
minutes out of the day. ‘Then our
physical requirements are increasing
each year, and I think they are of the
utmost importance. Gynasium work
{s insisted upon throughout the whole
course, and the seniors are required
to report four periods of outdoor ex-
ercise woekly.
“Back of this ‘work’ question is the
Guestion of what a college education
means. If it means Just book knowl-
edge, the mémorlzing of facts and the
solving of sclentifle and mathematical
problems, then a girl might work and
still keep up with her classes, without
Injury to herself,
“But college means so much more;
it means culture in the best sense of
the word. A broadening outlook on
Ufe, a quickening of the senses. It
means social pleasures and the forma-
tion of friendship.
“We never help poor students. We
give scholarships to girls that prove
their ability and who give promise of
being a credit t6 their alma mater.
‘These scholarships range from fifty to
one hundred dollars and only reduce
the cost of the tuition, not the board.”

Home.
Home! There is no word more
precious than home. It stands for
everything lovable and loving. It
sums up the life of a man. Home
stands for something more sacred
than a mere roof-tree, where the mem.
ders gather for friendly intercourse.
It stands for the family, that sacred
pillar on which rests the unity and
integrity of the state. To interfere
with it 4s to interfere with the state,
for the state cannot exist without it,
‘The mother makes the home, She
is {ts mistress and its queen; the
hearth on which glow the blazing love
fires around which all the family
gather for warmth. Home belongs to
the'mother. It may be a mud hut or
a tent upon the wild prairie, but
where mother is, there Is home. And
the place for mother is in the home.
