--- AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS THE EAGLE Francis Jackson Garrison, youngest son of William Lloyd, Garrison, abolitionist, died at his home in Newtonville, Mass., some days ago. He had been in falling health for some months Mr. Garrison is survived by his only son, Wendell Holmes Garrison, who lived with him, and by his sister, Mrs. Henry Villard of New York. Named after Francis Jackson, the famous English abolitionist, Mr. Garrison took a keen and active interest from boyhood in the stupendous efforts his father was then making in behalf of freeing the Negroes. This close association with the abolitionist Mr. Garrison's greatest pleasure in later life, and his continued his interest in the welfare of the race, being one of the most influential members of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. One of the few surviving men who had had a wide acquaintance among the men associated with the abolition movement, Mr. Garrison was at the time of his death one of the greatest authorities on the subject. Besides making for himself one of the most important collections of antislavery literature and of the records and papers of his father, Mr. Garrison gave generously of this material to aid libraries and out their literature on the subject. He collaborated with his brother, Wendell Phillips Garrison, in writing the biography of the abolitionist "William Lloyd Garrison; the Story of His Life Told by His Children." Born in Boston October 29, 1848, he was educated at the famous Boston Latin school, gradating in 1855. While still a schoolboy he aided his father in the publication of the Liberator, the powerful organ of the abolitionist movement, and was present on the historic evening at the end of 1855, when the elder Garrison, having written his valedictor, set in hand the book, "The Liberator," and stood by as the forms for the last number of the Liberator were closed. Having completed his schooling, Mr. Garrison went abroad with his sister, Mrs. Henry Villard, and Mr. Villard. They were joined by the elder Garrison in Paris in May, 1857. The young man visited the International exposition with his father and accompanied him on his trifurcal visit in Paris, where he met the young month, when eminent men and women of the two countries acclaimed the American who had done so much to win emancipation for slave slaves. Returning with his father after an eventful summer spent in both France and England. Mr. Garrison arrived in Boston again on November 16 of the same year. Ten years later he accompanied his father upon another trip to England, this time in the interests of the health of the elder man. Although his friends in England had been advised that William Lloyd Garrison was not strong enough to attend receptions and could not resist the opportunity to invite their friends to meet the abolitionist, to get him to talk about his early trials and later successes in the abolitionist movement, and to draw out his opinions on various moral and social questions. At all gatherings the son was an attentive listener and was continually curried up the vigor and freshness, with which his father recounted his early experiences. The trip started in May, 1877, and the two men returned to New York by the end of the Negroes of this city have turned their hand to writing. Prof. Richard T.

THE GAZETTE Having already made his connections with the publishing house of Houghton, Mifflin company, the younger Mr. Garrison returned to Boston to resume his duties. He married Mary Pratt in 1879, and she died three years later. In 1891 he married Theresa Holmes, who died in 1915. According to the census of 1910 there were in this country 218,712 Negro farmers owning their own homes. At that time 672,064 Negroes were tenants on the farms of others. Negroes are typically an out-of-door worker. He shrives best in God's fresh air and sunshine. Coop him up in the house and pulmonary disease attacks him quickly. As for the southern Negro, this is the lesson that should be learned before he allows the seductive offers of the northern labor seeker to pull him away from the climate and the work for which he is suited. The offer of better wages has already drawn more than 125,000 Negroes from the South. Despite the cold weather that approaches, the migration to the North continues. It is estimated that in six months more the number will reach a quarter of a million. Most of these Negroes are from the rural districts, and many are in the house in their lives. They have only a limited idea of the labor they will be expected to do in their new home. From the contemplation of these Negroes who are going to the rigors of the North, it is interesting to turn to the case of the Harris county Negro whose story was contained in the news columns of the Post of Sunday. Working with his seven sons and 2 yoke of oxen for the lumber mills, this Negro managed to become the owner of 600 acres Texas land. In the spring of this year are 19 bales of cotton, 3,000 bushels of sweet potatoes and 80 head of hogs. He and his family are well and they are content to stay in Texas. There will be no tempting them to leave the delightful climate of south Texas to spend a single winter in the zero temperatures of Illinois or New York. Any other Negro who will work and attend to business may do as well in the South as this Negro has done. There is no limitation on opportunity. The Negro will work on premium upon application, upon hard work, upon the ability to save, and upon common sense properly applied. The southern Negro who will work on the farm may do well. He will have the respect and the friendship of the white men of his community. He will have their help and their encouragement, and he can be happy in the land of southern sunshine — Houston (Tex.), Post.

It is expected that each winter the pits made by the previous season will be filled by freshets and the supply will be never ending.

HOPES FOR PEACE REST ON MEDIATION Diplomatic Washington Is Convinced Direct Negotiation Is Impossible. DEPENDS SOLELY ON WILSON Only the Most Skillful Handling of Situation by United States Can Ering Slaughter in Europe to an End. Washington, D.C. — Hope for peace in Europe rested solely on President Wilhelm II's world-greatened the new year 1917. Diplomatic Washington was convinced that direct negotiations between the two groups of battling European nations is impossible, and that only the most skillful handling of the situation by the United States can bring the slaughter to an end. Will Be Secret Negotiations. Diplomatic circles here were prepared to see the peace negotiations disappear into the dark and mysterious world of looted diplomacy. It was predicted, however, that these secret negotiations, properly conducted, will bear fruit ultimately, and one well informed diplomat declared that the peace terms would come to the surface in two months. With the direct peace negotiations initiated by Germany now practically a closed incident and attention centered on the attitude to be assumed by the entente powers toward the presence of one of the belligerents' embassies here outlined the peace situation as follows: "Germany's proposal for peace, and the reply of the entente allies have made it clear by their tone that there is no hope for direct negotiations for peace. The exchanges show that the belligerants have no common ground upon which they can get together for the mutual compromises which must mark the final peace negotiations. The United States must preliminary motions which must precede formal discussion of peace terms." "Mediation by a strong neutral power is the only other means of securing peace. The European neutrality, by their close proximity to the conflict and their patent interests in its outcome, are plainly barred from effectual work in the direction of mediation." "Only the United States, the greatest neutral of all, is in a position to make itself effectively heard above the din of the struggle. The president's peace proposals already under way are the most successful of the final negotiations for peace." "These negotiations will be carried on in secret. Following the expected reply of the entente allies to the president's peace note, it is to be expected that opportunities will develop for the preliminary confidential communication of peace terms by both sides to the president direct. These negotiations will necessarily be tenuous and slow, but the peace movement can be expected to take definite diplomatic action. The neutral and skilful diplomatic conduct, the United States can bring the peace terms into the open in about that time." 'Watchful Waiting' Perlog. "Watchful Waiting Period." Confronted with this situation, the administration settled down to期ed "diplomatic downhill" that the diplomatic screw down tightlypelt both the White House and the state department. "Secretary of State Lawsling declared emphatically that he would not discuss the peace situation, and that the diplomatic decks were cleared for the confidential negotiations. Representatives of the entente allies declined to talk peace until the formal answer of their governments to the president's note has been received. The Teutonic diplomats maintained the optimism which has characterized their peace discussion ambitions, and the German government protaganda. It is the German embassy it was stated that the German government would undoubtedly make some statement either through diplomatic channels or otherwise, to meet the charges made in the entente reply to the German peace proposals. In this statement, which may take the form of a speech to the reckstich by Foreign Secretary Zimmermann, will be Germany's last word in the controversy over who is responsible for starting the war. Negroes' Migration Due to Hunger Montgomery, Alabama. — Enlightenment of negroes to the east and middle west from the controversy attributed in the newspaper depicted at an Emancipation Day celebration here, in which several thousand negroes participated, as due to "the lash of hunger and necessity" and to "larger percentage of personal liberty offered through the more liberal franchises existing there." Shot by Sweetheart Lima, Ohio. — Eugene Callhan, 18, is in a hospital with a bullet in his back as a result of a new year's celebration. Police say, his sweetheart, Mish Ruth Hover, 18, of Gallon, fired when the assault is said to have been accidental. Callhan had started home and the girl was holding his revolver which they had used in marking the birth of the new year. As the boy stopped through door she pulled the trigger and the weapon emptied. He will recover. Harvey Dow Gibroh, who has been elected president of the library National bank of New York, is only 34 years old. He was vice president of the bank he now heads, where he is characterised as a man of entering energy, systematic in method, prudent and possessing unusual ability. In bringing in new and desirable businesses. That library National bank holds the distinction of being the most profitable national bank in the country. STONE DENOUNCES LAWSON'S CHARGES 'Any Public Official Using Government Information for Gain Is Scoundrel,' Says Senator Washington, D. C. — A demand for the official leak which precipitated the Wall; sent panic帖 congress after. Senate. Stone denounced Thomas W. Lawso; and his charges, but in a senses, speech to the senate he had the thing which represented the "hope of the nation" had "leaked" from the state department. Senator Stone declared that any public official who used government information for private gain was an "unscrupulous scoundrel" and ought to be dismissed from office. Thomas W. Lawso himself had his "leak" charges before Representative Henry of Texas, chairman of the rules committee, which has before it Representative Wood's resolution for a "bill" invoking Representative Henry, after conferring with the Boston broker, declared that he saw no reason for calling his committee together to consider the resolution. He said that Lawson had not supplied information sufficiently definite to support action by the committee. Lawson has promised further revelations and Henry's decision threatened to precipitate a revolt in the committee. Representative Campbell, a Republican, has promised vigorously against what he termed the "star chamber" proceedings conducted by the chairman. Senator Stone's speech created a sensation in the senate. "It is true that any public official did use any secret information as has been alleged to further his own personal interests, he is an unscrupulous scoundrel. If any man in legislative life did it, he must be unscrupulous, he ought to be dismissed from office. "I do not know if there is any foundation under these sensational reports. But I do know things have occurred in the state department that ought not to have been possible. "I know that the confidential communication to the state department and foreign governments which never have been made except in the state department must secret, have by some means found their way into the hands of men not authorized to receive them. The things to which I refer did not concern stock market transactions but the honor of the nation. How this happened I do not know, but it could only have happened through the indulgence of employees of the state department. "Senator Stone said that the Lawson disgusted, "and that the time has come when "this government does not have to consult the stock exchange before communicating with a foreign government." Anothen Akron Guard Dies Another Akron Guard Dies. Akron. O—Akron's second soldier victim of pneumonia is Wallace Kannell, aged 21, according to word that reached here from Fort Bliss base hospital. Death of the first victim, Rodney M. Lapp, gave rise to the "round robin" in, the 8th Ohio regiment, which created a big stir in military circles. Exposition Is Closed. San Diego, California. — The Panama-California international exposition has just closed, after having been open to the public continuously for two years. The event was received by President G. A. Davidson was one from President Wilson, which read: "May I convey to the San Diego Exposition association my warm congratulations on the completion of a unique and important industry of the country." The attendance for 1916 was 2,250,000. BRIDGEHEAD TAKEN BY GERMAN FORCES BRIDGEHEAD TAKEN BY GERMAN FORCES Storm Matchin, Keypoint to Rich Roumanian Territory; Braila Imperiled. OTHER TOWNS ARE CAPTURED Russian Attacks on Moldavian Front, Fall, According to German Report. The strategic and strongly-defended towns of Matchin and Jilila, in northern Dobrudja, have been captured by the Teutons, Berlin announces officially. By the capture of Matchin and Jilila the forces of the central powers have defended the northern Dobrudja, the extremity of the* Dobrudja mainland around which the Danube curves past Brulla and Galata. Bralia Still Holds. The defense which the Russians had prepared here was based largely on Matchin, the principal town, within its area and which gave the bridgehead its name. Seemingly the captures still further imperil Bralia, on the opposite bank of the Danube, which, according to advices from Teutonic sources, has been under the fire of Mackenon's force from this shore for several days. Bralia, however, is still further defended by a bridgehead on the Waltachian shore, and at last accounts this position was still holding firm against the Teutonic attacks. Bralia is an important Danube port, and has been a storehouse for grain and oil supplies of considerable magnitude. Berlin also reports the capture, after desperate storming attacks, of the Roumanian town of Luncavitiz in the northwest. On the Moldavian front strong attacks were made by Russo-Roumanian forces. The German official announcement says those assaults failed with heavy losses to the attackers. The towns of Barsei and Topesi, as well as several hill positions, were captured by the Teutonic forces. In the interior of Roumania the Russians and Roumanians have been driven back west and south of Pokrovsk and the invaded area from the front of the fortified Russian positions. Buss Hone to Halt Drive Hope Hospice It is in a general way that follows in a general way the course of the Sereth, 'that the Russians are counting on bringing to a halt Mackensens drive. Ending at the Danube between Braila and Galata, this line extends northwestward through Moldavia in the direction of the frontier. In the course of the operation, break this line is to be a strong one, as Berlin records smashing attacks upon the Russian lines at several points in which prisoners were taken and ground gained. Artillery activity of a lively sort in the Meuse-sector of the Ploe-Belgian operation successful patrol operation near the Lorraine border are reported in the German statement regarding operations in this war area. Some further progress has been made by the British on the Tigris and the Nile, but county were resumed after a long period of quiet during the hot weather. THINK SLAYER IS KNOWN OWNER OF BLOODY SHIRT AND COLLAR IDENTIFIED; NO ARRESTS YET. Philadelphia, Pa. — The man who killed Grace Roberts, beautiful artists' model, last Friday, left his bloody shirt and collar in her apartment. The man, a rich Pennsylvanian, whose man she is on the lips of everyone who moved in her circles, went shirtless and collarless to his hotel the morning after the killing. There is every reason to believe the police have heard the details of the killing from the man who did it, and that his story has involved a wealthy Philadelphian who wrestled the man, and who is now under surveillance. Despite these facts, no arrests have been made. Grandstand Burns. Dayton, Ohio. — A fire loss of about $10,000 was sustained when the grandstand and bleachers of the Highland Park baseball grounds, home of the Chicago League team idre, was destroyed by fire. The origin is unknown. German, Printer, La, Stain Amsterdam, Holland, via London. Bernie Jawai will announce the teeth of Prince Friedrich Zu Puerstenberg, who killed on the battle front in Roumania. Charged With Fraud. Chicago, Il. — Trial of former officials and salesmen of the Independent Harvester Co. charged with using the 'mails to defray, began before the company in the United States district court. The principal defendants are William Campbell Thompson, former president of the company, and Ning Eley, an attorney. The government contention is that the defendants used the mails to defray, which they considered to be worthless, thereby defrauding many persons. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS MEXICAN SITUATION NO NEARER SOLUTION The Year Has Not Brought Any Particular Change in Relations Between Countries. Washington, D. C. The concluding hours of 1918 found the Mexican problem no nearer solution in so far as the diplomatic relations between that revolution ridden country are concerned, than they were 366 days ago. With what may develop into the final meeting of the joint Mexican-American joint commission scheduled for Tuesday in Washington the question as to whether the present relations shall continue or whether an "abrupt change in the relations" will be unanswered. The American members of the joint commission, their patience sorry tried for "time to consider" are disposed to stand firmly against further discussion of the questions at issue. But from sources close to the president it has been stated that he is still disposed to be lentent and grasp almost any opportunity present of the Mexicans to provide for the Mexican army diplomatic arrangements under which the commissioners have been proceeding. It is pointed out that to break off all relations with Carranza cannot help the situation. The growing strength of the Villa movement, so called, which means the waxing activities of all the various related and unrelated enemies of the constitutionnalist government leads the president and his closer allies to the cause of improvement gained for the cause of improved relations by a further squabble with the nominal government of Mexico. On the other hand, the progress of Villa's own forces in the direction of Monterey, capital of Neuvo Leon and the metropolis of northern Mexico conveys a threat of serious consequences for both the United States and the constitutionalist. It is well known that the ultimate object of this maneuver, but the rich oil country east of that city and the great oil port of Tampico. In this region are properties of the foreign oil development concerns, American, British and Dutch, with equipment of a value measurable in hundreds of millions of dollars and supporting wells of which the United States built the British way. What Villa and his marauders could, would or might do in the way of destruction of foreign property because real anxiety on the part of the administration. Back of the direct damage possible is the international complications which threaten. Tampico is the source of oil supply of almost all the rebels under Another danger in this latest progress of Villa is the danger which may follow through a juncture of his own forces with those of the rebels under Pelaz who are in actual control of the oil country surrounding Tuxam, the port of export next in importance to Tampico. Should he accomplish, the coming to Villa as a friendly alliance, the establishment of Mexico's great oil territory would be completely in the hands of enemies of Carranza. NOTED AUTHOR IS DEAD HAMILTON WRIGHT MABIE SUCUMBES TO HEART FAILURE AND OTHER AILMENTS. Summit, N. J. — Hamilton Wright Mabie, the noted author and editor is read at his home here. As associate editor of the Outlook, he paid his last visit to the offices of the magazine three weeks ago. Since then his condition became very much worse and he never rallied. A week heart, overburdened with other ailments, was the cause of his death. Prof. Mabie was graduated from Columbia in 1889. In 1899 and 1908 he received the degree of LH. D. from two universities. He was a lecture of note in all parts of America and other countries. As an editor he assisted in producing the Outlook. Moonshine Whisky Higher Atlanta, Ga.—Moonshiners of the Piedmont in Alabama, Alabama, Tennessee and the Carolinas are not so slow. They have taken advantage of the high cost of living arguments put forth by the governor, as a result moonshine liquor that used to sell for 75 cents a gallon now commands $4 a gallon. Women Railroad President Buffalo, N. Y.-Mrs. Joseph H. T. Jones, widow of Cetu, Jones, has been elected president of the Gulf & Ship Island railroad to succeed her husband, it is announced here. Capt. Jones died a month ago, leaving an estate of more than $15,000,000 to his wife and daughter. Artist' Model Slain. Philadelphia, Pa. — Graze Roberta, a young artist's model, who posed for photographs advertising Onxy hosiery and Kisfit picoatts and whose face and figure were familiar, through these photographs, to millions of Americans, was found murdered in her room in an exclusive uptown apartment house. Her throat had been cut and she had been terribly beaten. A man's silk shirt bearing the mark of a New York manufacturer, was found in the room. This is the only clew found. THE EAGLE OF THE UNION WILLIS' POLITICAL LESSON: Gov. Frank B. Willis will vacate the office on Monday next. We wonder if he has learned his political lesson? Hardly had he been inaugurated, two years ago, then he began to give his best appointments to Republicans representing the portion of the party that had most actively opposed him for the gubernatorial nomination and did not support him; any too actively during the campaign for his election: This to the exclusion of most of his friends who had worked hardest for him from the very beginning. This mistaken policy—he pursued through his administration, only trying to "hick" his old friends into supporting him again this fall. Of course, this failed. How he broke his voluntary promise to our people and mistreated him in several ways in order that he might continue to cater to the portion of the party that had opposed him so actively prior to his nomination, has been told so often in The Gazette that repetition is unnecessary at this time. However, we wonder if he remembers how the Gazette repeatedly warned him that the Maschke-Davis faction acted against him. This depended his nomination, could not be depended upon to carry Cuyahoga (county) for him, and that it (the faction) would not make up the loss of the united support of our vote either in this county or the state, in event of his permitting "State Oil Inspector Carr" to make the appointment of "Germany" Hudson as a deputy for him (the governor). This is really, what defeated Gov. Willis at the recent election, for if he had received the united support, he month, two years ago, from People, two years ago, a Governor-elect Cork's would have been wiped out and a like plurality given Willis. It pays, even in politics, to be loyal to your friends, Frank! VILLARD AND LEADERSHIP. Some of our contemporaries are running to the defense of Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard. We shall not quarrel with them about it, but we reiterate, there is no middle ground! If Mr. Villard approves the policies of President Wilson respecting the Colored people, he cannot fight the battles of the Colored race so as to get for its real freedom! Any main organization or newspaper, that straddles and_wabbles on the issue of absolute equality of the Colored race in everything respecting citizenship, with other races, cannot be a leader of the race! O. G. VILLARD. The Colored race is not going about asking, anybody to be our friends. What it demands is constitutional justice as an American citizen. It is a sign of inferiority and truckling when a Colored man speaks loudly about "our white friends." As a race, we are not asking to put our friends or foes in the White House, but we do know that the mean deed is duty bound to be just and fair with all American citizens. "Our white friends," in the South are the most useless class extant! They speak after the mean deed is executed. They are worth nothing as a preventative. That Mr. Villard by voting for and supporting Mr. Wilson can get better consideration for the Colored people at his (Wilson's) hands is a damaging admission. As a man among men, I would spurn any, consideration given me because some white man can intercede and get it for me. If I am not entitled to it, I am not demanded that I shall have it. If I am not entitled to it, no one should seek to get it for me, for in so doing the constitution is being destroyed. As a man, Mr. Villard is fine but as a leader in the fight-for justice for Colored Americans, he has compromised by doing as he has. (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd.

A failure to properly advertise the violin recital at Chamber of Commerce hall, Dec. 27, 16, resulted in an audience about one-third the size it should have been, and would have been with proper advertising.

Of course his playing was superb as usual and the singing of Mrs. Ruby Slaughter up to her usually high standard. Mrs. C.Biggs work as a accompanist, is also very excellent. She is conscientious and capable. Messrs. John Berry and Harry Ford maintained the high standard of the recital. New and better management should have charge of the next one.
