BISHOP CALLS IN UNION IN STRENGTH THIRTY-SIXTH YEAR A BIS CROCKER LAND ONLY A MIRAGE ARCTIC PARTY JOURNEYS 1,300 MILES BY SLEDGE One Hundred Dogs Used in Trip Across Melville Bay—Tetis of Hardships Bronzed by the exposure to wind and weather, but otherwise beating no signs of his three years' stay in the Arctic as a member of the Glacier Land expedition under the leadership of Donald B. Macmillan, Prof Maurice C. Tanquary, who returned to New York, told of his trip from Eath by dog team and of the work of the expedition. "By arrangements which were made when we were handed at Eath," said Professor Tanquary, "we work to pursue our work for two years, when a relief ship was to come for us. The members of the party were Mr. Mecillan, who had charge of the exploration work, and Ensign Fitzhugh Green, U. S. N., detailed to assist in exploration; Dr. Harrison J. Hunt, our physician; Mr. W. Elmer Eckblow, our geologist; Mr. Jerome Lee Allen, wireless man, and myself as zoologist. "We were all waiting in Eath, our headquarters, for the relief ship which was to come for us. When Angus passed and no船 arrived we gave up all hope of being brought out, that year. We found out later that the George B. Cluett, which had been sent out for us had been forced to stop at North Star Bay, about one hundred and fifty miles south of Eath, because her propeller shaft, had broken. Dr. Edmund O. Hovey of the Museum, was on the Cluett, and he arranged with Mr. Peter Freuchen, who has charge of the Danish exploration base at North Star Bay, to take him to Eath in a motor boat. "When the motor boat arrived in *Ethan*. Mr. MacMillen had gone south along the shore to hunt wolf and Dr. Hunt had gone on a long trip north after caribou. We certainly were delighted to see Dr. Hovey and to learn that the ship was so near. As it was imperative that we start at once if we wanted to get away before the ice shut in, those of us who were at Ethan got our supplies there and the ice leaving Mr. MacMillan and Dr. Hunt to look after things in Etah or join us later if they washed. "Twelve hours later we started for the Cluett. The Cluett had brought Capt. George Comer, a veteran sailor of Hudson Bay whitters and a man experienced with ice. We readed North Star Bay and the Cluett, but could not start from there on account of a storm, which held us two days. "When we finally did start in the Chuckt the ice at Cape York was so bad that we could not put, through and anchored in an extremely precarious position, under the shadow of a tall cliff, at the entrance on Parker Snow Bay. The captain made several attempts to continue south thru the ice, but we had to take refuge in Parker Snow Bay, and the ship was finally leed in there. "Both Mr. MacMillan and Dr. Hunt visited us there, coming down from Easth by sieces and it was determined that four of us wore to attempt the trip by sleet across Melley Bay and along the coast of Danish Greenland at Holstenborg, a distance of about 1,300 miles, where we could get the frist ship out for Copenhagen. The Cluett was so crippled that it could not make the trip north to Easth. "We finally decided to take eight sledges, drawn by nearly one hundred dogs, and the party was to be composed of Dr. Hovey, Mr. Allen, Ensign Green and myself. We left Parker Snow Bay and made Cape York the first day. The cold was terrific' and Dr. Hovey was so exhausted and all that he realized it would be impossible for him to make the trip. Accordingly he turned back to the ship again and we went on. "It was January 20 when we left Cape York, and we were ten days-in crossing Melville Bay to Cape Soddon, the first Eskimo settlement. At once we rested a few days. The snow had been very bad on the trip across the bay, and the party was much exhausted. It was about February 11 when we reached Upernivik, our next stop to the south. On March 3 we reached Umlnak. There we met the High Priest of Greeland; Knud Balle, who was just starting south to his home at Egedesminde and who volunteered to guide us. We reached Egedesminde on March 21 and were taken-Into Mr. Balle's home as his guests. It was decided that we should remain there until the annual Danish mail left; to catch the boat at Holstenborg. When the time came to leave it was not deemed advisable to have all three of us make the trip out.

"BILL" Hayward's Stories—This One is "Rotten." New York City—Editor George W. Harris, of the N. Y. News recently published the following except as a part of a leading editorial in his newspaper. We ask any intelligent and honest reader to give us the mental shunt of Colonel Hayward toward his regiment and its race after reading these words: "The first thing I ever did in my life had anybody approve of me was getting trained to drive and laughingly, "After I gathered my crowd of Harlem waiters, bellboats; indoor chauffeurs and elevator boys, I thought I'd never get them across. When the minute finally came for sailing I think every elevator on Riverside Drive stopped automatically." "When our ship left in 1917 we sailed a little way, then broke down, came back, and tied up at Hoboken with our cargo of Thanksgiving turkeys and black troops. We got fixed up and started again. We didn't get the ship caught, we caught a broken back and ported the mishap to Gen. Shanks at the port of clabarkation. Our ship was overhauld and a third time we set out of hope, but the machine broke down again. When I reported to Gen. Shanks this time he said, "Woodness gracious. Colonel, me and turkeys to France." With his tribute to the black officers and soldiers, personnel of the Famous Fifteenth as "my crowd of Harlem waiters, bobblers, inborn chauffleurs and教导 boys," we will not take issue. The slightest regard for the ceiling of Leighton Porter College (Leighton Porter College, Charles W Fillmore, Attorney N. H Marshall, Columbia Student George Lacy, and Composer James Reese Europe (deceased) and the scores of stenographers, clerks and artisans among the non-commissioned officers and enlisted men, would have spared them this gratuitous insult. His 690th insult, in Harles Col., "Bill" Hayward is the individual who rid the 690th Int. A. Q. E. F. of all of its Afro-American commissioned officers soon after it reached France. Recently he was decorated with the Cross of the Legion of Honey by France for the splendid work on the firing line for 191 days his Afro-American regiment. It was longer in the trenches than it was American regiment and was the first to reach the Rhine. And now Col. "Bill" has joined the Southern "cracker" officers in hurling insulting terms and references at them in an effort to be "funny." Et tu Brute! $310,000 For Our Schools New York City—Appropriations of $310,000 for Afro-American schools ($205,000 for permanent improvements and $105,000 for current expenses) were announced last week by the general education board.

It was a call to sacrifice. "We make no compass sacrifice, but we make it gladly and willingly with our eyes lifted to the hills." BISHOP C. S.

Still"Fighting Bravely" "OUR COLORED TROOPS" Had it occurred to you, the universal loyalty of our colored citizens? Have you ever met a colored man in this country who was a 'pro-german'? Do you even know anyone who thinks he has actually seen one? I have personally made this inquiry in the South, in New England, on the Pacific coast, and here at home in the central United States, in the conviction "There are no such animal" as a pro-german American colored man. When the big war started and Biomstoff let house his long and carefully prepared plans of arson, bombs, strikes, and general confusion in this country, one of the most dastardly schemes on which his boss depended, was an uprising of the nine million colored people in the South. The offenders applied with money, was operated with great secrecy, and at first was carried on outside the larger southern cities. All sorts of impossible rewards were promised the blacks were to give and rule the South; every sort of poison he was used to tempt the colored people into a revolt against the white people was expected and another revolution would keep this country busy for the duplication of war. Of all this people in the North heard very little. To the everlasting credit of the col- ered people they refused to be led into the trap, and like the proposed A. FINE PUBLICATION.

When voluntary enlistment was offered, he responded promptly and in large numbers. During the Civil War, it was a frequent point of battle that the colored troops fought bravely. The reports which are reaching us of the colored troops in France in late mid-1918 that "fought bravely" they fight magnificently. A letter from an officer describing such a regiment going "over the top" is a picture worth painting. Far beheaded, shirts卸下但 no shirt at all, with the most unearthly yells at them, the most unpleasant like a cage of wild lions, released. These boys from the cotton and yarn fields like best for fight with the bayonet, which Fritz enjoys best of till, but in hand-to-hand combat they fall back on their trusty razor or knife, in the use of which they are more than proficient.

Senate on the League of Nations, delivered by Senator Reed of Missouri, Prof. Henry Clay Gray, editor of the Waxhatchie Tex. Meddler says, "The most effective hate breeding speech that has been delivered within these United States during the past fifty years, lies with our own Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of the Grims Magazine. What Dr. DuBois can see complement or can dispose to fight around the black man in anything that the white man may covet, we utterly fail to imagine. What has he poured over so much history for? Does he not see every day of his life what he sees in the world, and constitutions even are when a black man is the subject of measurement and appraisement by them? And this question is not: "What do they entitle him to?" but only: "What do or can they GIVE him?" We. (Colored people) are not homogeneous, being almost totally lacking in cultivated rational ideals and aims, an overwhelming majority being densely ignorant and prodigiously improvident, and perfectly content to be so.

"SHOULD RID GRAIN FIELD OF MUSTARD FARMERS WARNED TO COMBAT NULLED THAT WILL The most delicate on the grain crop are the cultivated crop of its moisture and plant food. Cases are reported. In which mustard in a corn crop has no so much moisture during a dry season that it never formed, making a total tdeath of the crop. Some grain diseases have practically been up to the amount of mustard New York State applied experiment station, and others to experiment until they have produced conditions that will not continue in ground. They have failed the other half of iron or sulphate of copper. It entirely deprived the mustard without injuring the cultivated crop. Iron sulphate is cultivated on copper, so it is more continually used for this purpose—which is at the rate of 700 pounds sulphate in fifty gallons of water. Cream an old oil or vinegar barrel, or an old row kettle, if the material is to be used at once; place the sulphate in this receptacle and add about all the total quantity of water. After the material is dissolved and the rest to the water. Sulphate of iron will dissolve in a few minutes—but copper sulphate requires several hours. The method is to suspend copper sulphate in a barrel of water overnight and then dilute to the required amount. The copper will dissolve more quickly in hot water, but the solution must not be applied while hot. Wild mustard may be sprayed at any time except when the plant is in bed, when it seems to be the strongest and most able to resist attacks of any kind. The best time to spray is when the plant has only a few leaves. It may be sprayed when in bloom, before the pods have set. Wild radish cannot be sprayed successfully after four leaves have formed, as it is very hardy. It must be attacked when the leaves lie close to the ground. Wild pumpkin is still very scarce in most places. It is not so hardy as wild radish, and may be successfully sprayed until after six leaves have formed. In badly infested fields it may sometimes be advisable to make a second application of spray a week after the first in order to get the plants left from the first application. It is claimed that a cloudy day is better than a bright day and that it is better to spray on a dew falls the following day, one should never spray, however, when there is a dew on the grain. All the cereals—as wheat, yage, oats, barley and corn—as well as peas, sugar beets and the grasses, may be sprayed with sulphate of copper or iron without injury. Potatoes, beets, rape and turnips belong to families closely related to mustard, so that they suffer from the spray almost as much as the weed itself. In some case serious injury follows the spraying, in other cases the plants are killed outright. Dean Bailey, penny grass, shepherd's grass, ragweed, dock and sodder are also killed when sprayed with copper sulphate solution.

SATURDAY, JUNE 7, 1919. As the United States asks no territory and no indemnities from Germany why should not the German navy be turned over to us?? It would at least save our tax payers from having to pay for the building of ship after ship in order to have a navy comparable with that of England and France. President Thomas Woodrow Wilson spells labor a la Great Britain style—labour Senator Moses says he did it to offset the large number of capital It's in his message. But this is sarcasm. Having adopted the English league of nations why should there be objection to the president's also accepting the English style of spelling? ITALY EMBITTERED W. K. McClure of the London Times says the feeling of Italy in regard to the peace conference "is very bitter indeed, dangerously bitter. I have never known anything like it. I am not judging from newspaper comment, as the pens are violent and bitter in Italy. I am judging from direct contact with serious people." The public opinion in America has settled down to the decision that it would have been just as well for America and better for the President had he let some European explode the Fiume magazine—if it were at all wise to touch the match to it. HARDING SELECTED The Republican organization of the Senate has selected Senator Warren G. Harding of Ohio, as one of the four new members on the Committee on Foreign Relations. In view of the peace treaty, the league of nations, and the grave international problems of the future, this becomes the most important committee in Congress. The other new Republican members are to be Harry S. New, of Indiana; William S. Kenyon of Iowa, and George H. Moses, of New Hampshire. The appointment is a tribute to the sound judgment and sane patriotism of Senator Harding and is a fitting recognition of his growth in the Senate. Ohio naturally will take a just pride in the increasing influence acquired by her Republican senator. GETTING BACK TO NORMAL Now that the war is over or is not over—have it to suit yourself, the country is rapidly returning to the customary vociations of peace. For example, the South has returned to lynching from time to time. A white man was its victim, last week. A late case was a little out of the ordinary, however, showing that the South is not at all hide-bound in its occasions for lynchings. It was at Blakely, Georgia. An Afro-American soldier, just back from France, was wearing his uniform with some pride. Ordered to quit wearing it by local sentiment, he was too slow in complying with the demand, and so, of course you see, he just had to be lynched. There was nothing else that could have been done, was there? When Woodrow gets his league of "notions" running, one of the civilized nations should be given the mandatory for the "Solid South." NORTHERN DEMOCRATS COMPLAIN The Democratic members of Congress from the Northern states of New York, New Jersey and Massachusetts have held a meeting of protest against Southern domination of their party. They made bitter complaint because the majority of the Democratic members on the various committees, especially the important ones, are from the South. They formulated a demand that the Northern Democrats should be permitted to have a larger part in the Congressional management and share more equitably in desirable committee assignments. The Democratic mem- bers from Ohio stayed away from the meeting. This may have been because they knew in advance that the South would give up nothing, or, it may have been from a sense of gratitude growing out of the fact that there would be no Democratic party at all were it not for the "Solid South," or it may be that they just naturally prefer to continue being the tail to the Democratic dog. Any way they were not there. LYNCHING AND "JIM CROW" CARS The National Association of Colored Women, which met recently in New York City, made a mistake (similar to the N. A. A. C. P.'s mob violence or anti-lynching bill effort) when it urged a federal bill against "jim crow" cars. The states only have the power, according to a U. S. Supreme Court decision, when it comes to mob violence (lynching), and also "jim crow" cars for intra-state passengers—persons going from one point to another in the same state—and Congress is powerless. Congress can legislate against the two evils for territories and the District of Columbia, and can legislate when it comes to the matter of inter-state but not intra-state passengers on public carriers. A decision of the U. S. Supreme Court in our favor would make unnecessary the necessity of legislation against "jim crowing" inter-state passengers and our several "national" organizations should long ago have carried a test case to that August body.

Pleaser of the Court of Common Pleas, (Sandusky) Eric County district, who fifty years ago was a classmate of Senator Green in the Union Law school in the old Rouse block, this city, from which many of the old and leading legal jurists matriculated. In 1879 Mr. Green went to Fremont. Judge Garver's home to speak at an emancipation celebration. The judge made Mr Green his house guest for the day or two he was in the city and also gave him a drive about Fremont. Judge Garver is on the local Common Pleas. He is the lead dockets of a multitude of cases, some of which have been pending for years. After dinner, Mrs. Green, who is an exceptionally fine hostess, drove the two distinguished guests in her auto to Judge Garver's hotel. OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of a farm, restaurant, eating house, barbershop, public conference by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts.

The merchant who never advertises under any circumstance or condition may imagine he is wise, but his competitors have no desire to disturb his imagination. It's a good time to "get awake."

Why do those who are grave, dignified, respectable, religious, laugh at the clever portrayal of characters quite the opposite? Is it because a part of our personality is in sympathy with the indecorum, triviality, vulgarity of what we see? Are we not as honest at the vaudeville as at church—if we attend both? Even more honest? Sylvia H. Bliss differs from others who have theorized as to the cause of the laugh. And her views have set a lot of scientists to thinking. The reason for the merry chuckle has always been shrouded in mystery. "The greatest of thinkers, from Aristotle down, have tackled this great problem, which has a knack of befitting every effort, of slipping away and escaping, only to bob up again, a pert challenge flung at philosophic speculation." So says Henry Bergson. And Sylvia H. Bliss quite agrees. Nevertheless, she advances her own theories. Says this psychologist: "Science has demolished the idea of a funny bone, finds in the brain no special center for an appreciation of the humorous, and in the world of thought and action nothing inherently intrinsically comic. "The first laugh whose strange sound broke the long, silent gravity of the prehuman ages—what emotion gave rise to it? Was that primeval man in any modern sense amused? He laughed at no sally of wif; his brain was tickled by no subtle and devious perception of the comic. Of this we may be certain. "Summoning to our aid the evidence which biology and psychology afford, and guided by the imagination exalted by scientific training to a species of insight, we will penetrate to that faraway epoch when mirth was born to earth. "What was the first emotion, and what its cause? "Laughter is the result of suddenly released expression, the physical sign of subconscious satisfaction. Our primitive man saw, it may be, another do the thing reprobated by the tribe and his own nascent conscience. The sight relieved the tension occasioned by his own repressed wish to do the selfsame thing—and he laughed. "It is probable that the track for that particular discharge of nervous energy was laid down long before actual laughter took place. Darwin noted that the lower jaws of some species of baboons quivered up and down when they were much pleased. Expectancy, anticipation, satisfaction, with their accompanying bodily recreation, paved the way for laughter. "We may bow our heads during public prayer because it is the custom; we laugh at a joke because we must. This view finds confirmation when we consider what occurs during a struggle to suppress laughter. The surface sense of propriety strives to suppress the evidence of subconscious approval. "The secret of laughter is in the return to nature. Civilization and culture are late additions, and we are living to a great extent in artificial conditions. Psychology makes plain the fact that our present mental equipment has been slowly and painfully acquired and a certain strain in maintaining that high altitude is inevitable. This tension is relieved by nonsense and by the portrayal in humorous anecdotes and on the stage of evasions of convention and infractions of the prevailing code of morals and manners. "Laughter is honest and responds to the primitive honesty of others. We laugh at a sneeze which hinders a speech at its most pathetic passage, because paths in oratory is always somewhat strained—even artificial—while the sneeze is absolutely natural and honest." Some scientists tell us that the expression of laughter is not always indicative of a physical appreciation of enjoyment, for it is well known that idioms are prone to laughter which is often without any such significance. They often show a laughing contenance, the smile being more or less stamped on their features; or they may grin, giggle or chuckle, at the slightest thing. It is probable that in such cases laughter purely expresses physical contentment, rarely associated with higher or more complex ideas. When one is laughing the movements of the chest and the larynx are almost exactly exactly opposite to those that accompany the utterances of agony when distressed. In joy the expirations are usually short and the inspirations long, whereas in distress the expirations are prolonged and continuous. "In all races of men," says Darwin, "the expression of good spirits seems to be the same, and it is recognized. And he adds that "from the natives of New Zealand to the highly civilized Caucasian much the same forms of emotional expression are to be observed." Maudsley describes what he terms a "quasipathological laugh" the abortive and incoherent laugh of the person of insane temperament, which is laughter pulled up abruptly, followed by a sudden facial seriousness, or a change which affects only a part of the features while the rest are unmoved. Mother Goose tells us that Old King Cole was a merry old soul. Therefore we presume he had the laughing nebub. It would be interesting to know what made him chuckle all over when called for his pipe, and called for his bow, and called for his fiddles three. Does psychology contain an answer for this?

The reason the men sting you to the tune of a dollar a pound for chicken and six bits a pound for bacon is they are afraid too much money in your possession might corrode your Christian character.—Houston Post.

"I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, inolevant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends."—Charles Sumner. --- Snapping It Back.

Joseph C. Manning Says Both of These are Southern Democratic Trick Slogans And He Is Right, Too! New York City, May 26, 1919: Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, Cleveland, Ohio. Dear Mr. Smith:—I am sending to you a copy of an open letter to U. S. Senator Warren G. Harding of Ohio which you are at liberty to publish if you so desire. Sincerely yours, JOSEPH C. MANNING, New York City, May 22, 1919: Hon. Warren G. Harding, United States Senate, Washington, D. C. Dear Warren Harding;—I trust that, in the meanwhile of the discussion of the League of Nations, the country will get information not only about the need of the world democracy, as laid down by President Wilson, but, also, the facts about democracy in the southern states as lain low by the South-in-the-saddle southern Democracy. The nation has already heard a great deal about Wilson's war and Wilson's League of Nations; and one to make the world safe for democracy and the other to keep the world out of war. What I would prefer that the nation hear a bit more about how the People of the United States have made democracy unsafe in the states of the South, through the machinations of political intrigue. J. B. WARREN G. HARDING. sulting in the fostering of a political autocracy, and how so-called disfranchisement laws have operated to shut out the masses of whites and practically all the colored citizens from the ballot and voice in government. I must confess that I am more deeply concerned in upholding the principles of Constitutional government in the United States and in seeing that we have democracy uphold in this country than in this high-ultating for everything everywhere abroad. President Wilson has recently said that to find a fool let him speak in public. This makes me recall the oratory of those 1916 campaigners for the South-in-the-saddle Democratic party and their "he will keep the country out of war." It would appear to the average thinker that this present bunk of "he will keep the world out of war" is only a world-wide revision of this 1916 political faking. Those who put over one trick usually try it again with revision or different trimmings. This Wilson's League of Nations ought to turn loose its dove in this country and at least let a white feather drop in the South as an omen that the southern-shot-gun-Democracy will turn to shooting rabbits instead of would-be voters, while pine knots will be turned to the peaceful pursuit of kindling fires to cook steak instead of kindling flames to bake humanity at the stake. Back to the subject of fools and speaking in public, it would seem that the southern Democracy could not, with its own record of disfranchisement and denial of voice in government and over-riding the consent of the goverened, have the brazen effrontery to pose as leaders of world democracy. This political regime must think that they can "fool all the people all the time" and that we are a nation of fools, that we have no sense of propriety or consistency. It would not seem to me to have been a bit more of aersion, should he have preached too Romans to have preached old-time "hell fist and dammation" religion abroad while preaching and practicing that other belief at home, than it is for this southern Democracy of political repression to go out proclaiming world democracy abroad while they stifle free government in those states over which they domineer at home. It can but appear to me that the hour has struck to expose this hypocrisy. For a long while, up to about 1880, the southern Democracy maintained a political oligarchy through stuffing ballot boxes in black belt counties in the several states of the South. They said they were upholding white supremacy, but contests in Congress exposed this system as one that was operated to overcome the majorities cast against this regime in the white counties by the white voters and it will be recalled that, in 1897, about thirty southern Democracy were outwitted by the Congress. It was then that the southern Democracy triggered and figured the existing plan of minipulating control, through disfranchisement laws, which they heralded as planned "to get rid of the Negro." This was a lie! This intrigue was put in motion to get rid of true democratic government and to fasten a political autocracy on the masses of the people of the South. The results of the operations of the scheme plainly discloses its purposes. Whites and blacks are eliminated through its chicancy. There is the state of Virginia, so close to the city of Washington, that has 550,000 male citizens of voting age and yet 100,000 Democratic ballots rule that state. Fully 240,000 whites do not vote. In 1916 we heard a lot of excruciating things about the struggle of the Mexicans for voice in government and it was said that Baker referred to Villains as comparable to the Revolutionary patriots. If the Democratic candidates for President, in 1916 could sigh for the Mexicans who waned to be high heaven, why can't the southern Democracy have a heart for those in the southern states whose voice in government has been lynched by the Wilson southern Democracy? If there be sympathy for Mexican bandits, why not sympathy for colored Americans who are not bandits, but who are law abiding and property-holding and tax-paying citizens of the United States; even though the Southern states have not, in the sense of the American Constitution, tenances of the American Constitution, yet taken these people in the Union". We have had all this southern Democratic propaganda for all these years about an alleged "race issue" and "Negro problems." It is time that this slush be pressed aside and the real question of whether or not the people of the South are going to have plain United States government considered. There is no reason why other states should comply with the Constitution and these five states be permitted to lynch the Constitution. All of his "race issue" rot is the cloak behind which the lynchers of Gorilla government hide their political outlawry. I am writing to you, Senator, on this subject because you are one of the foremost leaders of the party of Lincoln and one of our great American statesmen. Will you not deeply and seriously consider the subject of this correspondence? Sincerely yours, JOSEPH C. MANNING. Editor Harris Was Also a Member of the Committee on Resolutions — "Scott's Answer to DuBois" Commented Upon. The accuser must come into court with clean hands. Dr. W. E. DuBois during the war sought to become a captain in the War Department. Dr. DuBois at the Conference of Colored Editors and Leaders at Washington, D. C., as chairman of the resolutions commit- Dr. W. E. DuBois. treed, in the first draft of those resolutions: "We are willing to await the end of the war to press our claims for the redress of our grievances." He opposed a plank in those resolutions calling the attention of the President to the conditions of travel for the race in the South. He opposed a plank in those resolutions calling the attention of the President and the Government to the grievance of the race at the monstrous injustice of race disfranchisement in the South while America was battling to make world sage or orderly the race and unwieldy objections of the Conference the surrender en toto of race rights, even for the duration of the war, was stricken out. For the same reason there was a plank inserted in the resolutions reciting the disfragrant "jim-crow" conditions of travel in the South. Due to the implacable hostility of Dr. DuBois to the insertion of an anti-disfranchisement plank, advocated by the editor of The New York News and seconded by Superintendent Roscoe Conkling Bruce of Washington D. C. According to the clause of the editor of the Crisis, the author of those resolutions and the editor of the Crisis sought to dissuade the editor of the New York News on the floor of the Conference, saying: "If you will not press that point. I will join with you after the war in a relentless and nation-wide fight on disfranchisement." During the war Dr. DuBois with hundreds of other civilians and soldiers presented instances of injustice to colored service men to Assistant Secretary of War Scott, Candor compulsus to say that Secretary Scott manfully took up an investigation and reported that he had been briefed by Secretary Scott. That he stood straight on every such complaint, that he accomplished much, beset as he was on every side by cunning race enemies in posts of power THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, JUNE 7, 1912. above, beneath and around him, is the simple truth. That he did not publish every such victory or every such defeat was a matter of good judgement in the one case and of his wise discretion in the other. That there was any connection between Dr. Du Bois' silence and advocacy of surrender of race rights during the war and his ambition to become a captain we do not say, for we do not know. We do say however: Dr. DuBois declared before the meeting of the Washington branch of the National Advancement Association that he wanted to be a captain, because he needed the money owing to his financial circumstances. We declare further that he sought to continue drawing his salary as editor of the Crisis and at the same time a salary as captain in the Intelligence Bureau. He first sought the captaincy through Major Joel Springgarn and then through Major Scott Springgarn. Major Springgarn was later seas. Dr. DuBois' application was rejected. Dr. DuBois sought a salary under the War Department. Without salary, save one dollar per year. Secretary Scott worked from the first, worked then and works now under the War Department. This is Emmett Scott's good and sufficient answer to Dr. DuBois. Emmett Scott belongs by birth, training and temperament to the conservative, constructive school of the race. Surrounded by a sea of southern prejudice he seeking to save and serve the race was far more radical than radicals like DuBois during the war. Dr. DuBois by birth, training and temperament belongs to the radical, idealistic school of the race. He sought to get into the southern administration to serve primarily himself. His conservatives like conservatives like Emmett Scott. His insinuations fall flat in the light of his own race-record during the war.—N. Y. News, Geo. W. Harris editor. NEW DEVICE TO INSURE SAFETY OF PARCEL POST Washington Man's Invention Makes Shipment of Even Eggs Safe From Breakage The Postoffice Department has just approved an invention which postoffice authorities say, may revolutionize the parcel post service at least so far as shipments from farm to table are concerned. It is likewise expected to have an influence in eliminating the middleman. The invention is a container by which country produce of all kinds can be shipped any distance without danger of breaking or spoiling. The container is made of the same fiber as that used in the construction of railroad car wheels. It is a cylindrical box with a peculiar inner arrangement of fiber partitions, in which even eggs can be placed and the package thrown around as ordinary baggage without danger of breaking. The containers are not to be sold, but leased by fourth class postmasters whose inducement will be the additional cancellation of postage stamps through the increased use of the parcel post and a commission on the boxes. A half dozen of these car wheel fiber boxes can be placed in a specially made bag which can be handed as ordinary parcel post matter. There is a return tag on the container and stamps already affixed by the sender insure its return. The inventor is F. W. Edwardy of Washington. He has been working with the postoffice experts and officials of the department of agriculture for several months. Experts who have looked into the invention say they believe that in one year parcel post of the country districts will be brought up at least several hundred thousand dollars. This and the opportunity it will afford the American farmer to ship his produce direct to the customer without its going thru the hands of the middleman, are the two points to which the government authorities attach most importance. PUTTING ATUO TOGETHER NEW VAUDEVILLE STUNT Team Performing in New York Makca Record of 1 Minute and 22 Seconds Assembling an auto with a stop watch is the highest vaudeville act. It is also the busiest act on the stage, says a New York paper. As it is staged, two machines are lying around wheels, tops, mudguards, lanterns and all the rest—just as if a collision had occurred; only the chassis and engine of each car are intact and mounted on props. The two crews take their places and at a signal begin to build their machines. Monkey wrenches, screwdrivers, hammers and all the rest of the tools in the kit are out and in motion. Joe Longfeather, who is a Shioshone Indian has trained his team to work on a system. The man with No. 3 monkey wrench never gets in the way of screwdriver No. 4. Number 2, running around the end with a mudguard, dodges just in time to permit No. 5 to jump over the headlight and turn a screw on the hood. Two of the champion-hip team take just four breaths apiece during the contest. They are short breaths, for there's no time for a long one. On a recent night a Jetsie crew beat the champs just because the team on the spark plug was half a second late in getting the car in motion to run off the stage. The best time thus far made in assembling a car is one minute and 22 seconds.
