Special to The Gazette Special to The Gazette Aix-Les-Bains, France, July 19, 19—Although Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, president of the National Association of Colored Women, was the last to leave for France, the work that she has been able to accomplish will no doubt bring favorable results for our people. Together with Mrs. Helen M. Curtis who was the first colored woman to go about her work, the war, to camp Romaine, gave much encouragement to the colored soldiers who put over the biggest job in France, the burying of the 26,000 American soldiers, slain in the Argonne Forest and around Verdun, Mrs. Talbert was indeed fortunate to be associated with Mrs. Curtis who acted as interpreter for her upon several occasions. Through Monsieur Blaise Diagne, member of the French Senate, a conference was arranged with Madam Jules Siegfried, president of the National Council of French women, whose husband is president of the Senate. These ladies were received by her at her palatial home on Boulevard St. Germain, where the status and hope of the colored woman in America was discussed at great length. Mrs. Talbert taken over at Montreal from Mrs. Phillip North Moreau, professor of the National Council of Women in America. These ladies were also entertained by President-Elect and Mrs. C. M. B. King of Liberia, at their beautiful apartments, Hotel Scribe, upon the Grand Boulevard. Although all leaves for women had been withdrawn at the Paris office, special permission was granted Mrs. Talbert and Mrs. Curtis to go to Chamberry and Aix-Les-Baines. Due to the splendid conduct of the colored soldier at Chamberry, Mrs. Talbert was received with open arms by a large number of citizens at a reception arranged by Mrs. Curtis and held at the home of Madam Gerey. The entire afternoon was spent in talks both French and American women. Afterwards a dainty collation was served. At Aix-Les-Baines a very large reception was given by Madamelle Alberta Boyer who had worked so faithfully at Chamberry. Mrs. Curtis and held at the home of boys their leave-area. The reception was held at the large Protestant Episcopal home. When Mrs. Curtis introduced Mrs. Talbert and women in America for the War of Civilization, she was roundly cheered. The very best families of the city were present and Mrs. Talbert was received with a great outburst of enthusiasm. This is almost a fullment of the work which the National President hoped to do: The starting of an educational propaganda with the club women of France, Italy and Spain so that Negroes during this great world reconstruction may receive a square deal. At Versailles, they were entertained by Madamoiselle Vossair, teacher of philosophy in the girls' college and noted club woman. They will return to America, sailing from Marsilles and stopping at Barcelona, Spain. Upon Mrs. Talbert's return, she will open headquarters at "Cedar Hill" and restore the home of the Hon. Frederick Douglass, where the colored women of America will make their stand for real democracy. Mrs. Talbert brings with her a gift of $1,000 for restoration—from the boys who laid to rest the American soldiers in the Argonne cemetery. If democracy fails for the Negro, their spirits can not rest. By Joseph C. Manning (Mr. Manning was a leader of the Republican-Populist fusion party in Alabama and the South, having been a member of the Alabama Legislature. He is a native Southerner and has made a study of conditions in the South for years.) SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS "The Attitude of the Afro-American"—Dr. Wm. A. Byrd on "An Insidious Propaganda". has to take his last stand. This riot race hate is too bad. It is shameful and, in most place, it all arises from political buncomble put forward by Northern Democrats that they may "get by" with the rule of a political autocracy—while they shout from the house tops about "world democracy." The only way to stop this propaganda against the Negro is to tell the nation the truth about the Southern political oligarchy, for it is all kept up to obscure the facts about political repression of whites and blacks alike.—Brooklyn (N. Y.) Daily Standard Union, Aug. 14, 197 ATTITUDE OF THE AFRO- AMERICAN Many of the southern news-papers as well as the papers of the District of Columbia, were industriously publishing "attacks" by colored men M. SNOW M. HENNES COPY FIVE CENTS RIOTS Jos. C. Manning "Talk During the ting e Afro-American"—Dr. on "An Insidious ganda". on white women." There was no truth in it. The average white reporter on a southern paper is the biggest liar abroad. By these lies the attempt was made to justify the frequent lynchings occurring in the south. It is very well for the world to know that southern white men are the most damnable liars in the world when they wish to mitigate their barbary as shown in their dealings with colored people. The entire south has lived a life for thirty years. It has told the world what the south was doing was necessary, if civilization was to be maintained. America was hypocrite enough to pretend that it believed it. Now America covers its face in shame because of the savagery practiced in this country, especially in the south, as the result of 'White Supremacy.' Colored men, even the worst of them, are not as basely immoral as the average white southerner, who spares neither their white nor colored wom- Dr. William A. Byrd en. He is a beast of the lowest prey and will use every means to destroy virtue wherever he meets it. Because of his base immorality he is as a savage brute that believes every other being is like him. The infamous crimes committed by the white southern brute against colored women, constitute one of the reasons why colored men are lynched, for they feel colored men are attempting to do to the white race what white men did to the colored race. There are instances where illicit relations may occur between colored men and colored men south. In the majority of the instances, their is mutual consent. As a rule decent colored men forget that white women exist. Never again will the world believe the south. The insidious propaganda now being carried on in America is the continuation of the one begun by white officers and privates of the south in France against colored soldiers. There must be no quarter them to the monumental liars of creation. Colored men, since they care and their schemes, in their innocence a trumpet to the murder in their innocence a trumpet to the arrest him on a trumpet up crime, in the spot. The knight one some killings. The southern white man is a coward. He is still the gregarious savage. He is still with a mob, if there is only one man they are attacking. Alone he is a sneaking cur that will slink away. This same cur has brought reproach upon white women by constantly connecting their names with colored men in a base way. Investigations have revealed the imperfections of humanity and when the two races do come together neither one is the saint in the mix up. The time is past for colored men to keep their mouths quiet and hear the calumny heaped upon them by white southerners and not strike back. Whenever a report derogatory to a colored man and white woman is started by a southern white man, one is justified in pronouncing it a lie begun for utterer purposes. (Key.) Wm. A.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 23, 1919. We have been too busy for the past three weeks to call attention to "The Old Reliable" Gazette's triumphant entry upon its thirty-seventh year. More on anon. O, yes, our people can do things when they want to. Washington Chicago and Puritas Spring Park for instance! Those here in Cleveland can best understand this. Thank the Lord! Afro-American voters of Cleveland stand together! Continue to be men! Insist that the Republican organization of this city hold its formal campaign opening next month, anywhere but at Luna Park. America gets nothing out of the war. Territory, indemnities, everything, goes to the other victors. By the league of nations we also guarantee them in addition that we further burden our people with ever and ever higher prices by sending food, leather and clothing abroad in such quantities that we create an artificial scarcity here. If it is no longer America "first," why need it become America "last?" We see less than half a dozer Negro newspapers regularly only two of which come to us from the other side of Mason and Dixon's line. These latter, of recent date, give us the impression that their editors do not appreciate the gravity of the peril which the Negro faces at this time. Waxahachie (Tex.) Meddler. Your impression, brother, is the result of your environment and long life in the South. There is hardly a race publication in the country, North or South, which does not "appreciate the gravity of the peril which the Negro faces at this time." The Washington and Chicago riots gave them all the information of that kind they needed. THE H. C. of L. The trouble with the high cost of living is not from the delay in committing ourselves to the league of nations. It is widespread, universal American profiteering. The only kind of profiteering too many are opposed to are the lands they are not in. Prices would be just as high and stay just as high if we had gone into the league months ago. In fact as soon as we had commenced to take over trouble in Europe under it prices, with justification, would have jumped higher. Every time American soldiers go abroad to take part in any European trouble, prices are going to go up. The history of the world shows that whenever men put on uniforms and shoulder their guns, prices go up and there always will be trouble in Europe. That's why Europeans come to America. That the Democratic administration of the National Government is responsible for the disgraceful race riots which recently terrorized the capital, is asserted by a southerner who has been in close touch with southern political methods. His explanation of the riots is very plausible. During the past six years, and particularly since the United States entered the war, he says, the administration has been crowding the national capital with southerners taken there to fill positions in the government service. This is true not only of persons occupying clerical positions but of those in other capacities in connection with the war. The number of employees brought from the South is out of proportion to the population of that section of the country. These people brought with them the southern attitude toward the Afro-American, so when a colored man was alleged to have committed a crime and the officers were not able to find the alleged guilty person, violence was visited upon the innocent by an "infuriated" mob. Unlike the southern Afro-American, however, those in Washington fought back, with the result that more white men were slain or mortally wounded than Afro-Americans. The transformation of Washington into a southern city resulted in the adoption of methods that could not succeed in a National Capital where men of all races enjoy equality under the law. THE EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION Though it poured, Monday morning, and there were intermittent showers late in the afternoon, the attendance (thousands) upon the emancipation celebration of the Cleveland Association of Colored Men at Puritas Springs park was larger than any the organization ever had at Color-line Luna park in all of the near ten years of unfortunate patronage it gave that place of amusement. It is positive evidence of the fact that our people of this community appreciated, and thoroly too, the change from "Luna" the organization had made. This to their and its everlasting credit. It was the exhibition of manhood, self and race respect "The Old Reliable" Gazette has been calling for each year from the organization's first celebration at "Luna." Thank the Lord—not The Gazette. And what a grand celebration it was! The attractions at "Puritas" were all desired, the music, the exercises, and the behavior of all excellent, and everybody came away happy and thoroly pleased. The C. A. of C. M.'s twelfth annual emancipation celebration was an unqualified success. More power to the splendid committee which had the affair in charge. Too much praise and credit cannot be given its members, especially its chairman. We regret that we have not the names of all that The Gazette might give them here. The speaking was started at 6 p.m. with the president of the Association, Welcome T. Blue presiding. After a short but satisfactory talk he introduced the first speaker, Director Alex Bernstein, who represented the mayor who was absent as usual. Great, big, wholesouled Republican and friend of the race that he is, Mr. Bernstein is the one member of the Davis administration who has MANY warm friends among our people of Cleveland because he "makes good" with all with whom he comes in contact. So it was Monday with his speech. It was not long but it was strong, rang true and pleased greatly because there was an evident vein of sincerity in all he said and he said something. Our space is too limited to quote the speakers or we would delight in doing so in the cases of the director and Major Patterson. He was followed by the editor of The Gazette whose presence upon the occasion was a great surprise even to himself. But he enjoyed and appreciated the opportunity to speak to our people there on that occasion, possibly more than those who heard him enjoyed his address. However, they can best speak for themselves. Major Patterson of Chicago, judge advocate of the 92d division, A. E. F., who recently located in this city, was the third and last speaker, and made one of the most interesting addresses it has been our good fortune to hear for a long long time. He is a fluent speaker and in uniform has excellent stage presence. All the speakers were most enthusiastically received and applauded by the vast concourse of people who heard them. Passing strange, isn't it, that the papers of last Sunday did not announce the bursting of the intake pipe of the bathing-pool at Color-line Luna Park Sunday evening, about a day in advance of the scheduled alleged event as was the case a year or two ago? There are, however, rumors to the effect that the park management is about $4,600 behind on the season thus far. If this be true, and indeed whether it is or not, the easy thousands of dollars that color-line place made each year for many, from our people on the one or two "days" they had there annually, is missed and will be missed for some time to come. May it be so! The concessionaires as "Puritas," led by the veteran and efficient caterer, W. F. Hanshary, sole everything they had, Monday, and of course they, too, were happy the very tired. It was some celebration—some day! Many were in attendance from the cities and towns within a radius of one hundred miles of Cleveland. Among the ranks of human souls God chooses for his legion The ones whom he has put on earth To serve him in that region. So they are tried; but by his grace Come forth reborn from the mire, Fitted to do his work—steel Tempered by the fire. What knows he, then, of human woe Who never suffered angst? And how can he lend sympathy Who does not know the lot Of those on whom their burdens weigh And bear them to the earth, While others waste their time in But God has chosen helpers here To comfort those who need A helping hand, a word of love, Or kindly deed, to lead Them on, when blinded by their tears They cannot see the way. They, too, will be blinded when They see the light of day. Marié Tella Phillips THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, AUGUST 23, 1919 [Picture of a woman with dark hair and a white dress]. MRS. A. M. MALONE'S BIRTHDAY Made an Extremely Happy Occasion By Some of Her Hosts of Friends And Admirers. St. Louis, Mo.—Saturday, Aug. 9, was full of surprises for Mrs. Annie M. Malone, secretary-treasurer and founder of Poro college, and one of the race benefactors. It was her birthday anniversary and the employees of the college surprised her at the usual morning debriefs by presenting her with a large bouquet of flowers. Her address were made by Editor Nick Chiles of the Topeka (Kan.) Plaindealer, and Mr. Charles Stewart, the "globe trotting" correspondent, and Mrs. A. H. Stevely, who representing the 200 young women employed in the establishment, presented the large bouquet of flowers. This was followed by a surprise dinner at Y. M. C. A. Secretary Jones. Here also flowers and other small tokens were given Mrs. Malone. This was followed by a private picnic, and then came the big surprise, for while she was out, things were being put in order at her living quarters in the Poro college building. When she reached home, there was a crowd of ladies awaiting her. An "Ampico," baby grand (Krabe) piano had taken the place of the old grand and was entertaining the guests. Mrs. Malone thought Prof. Tyler was playing. A surprise dinner was served. Those present were: Miss Allie Simms, Mesdames Mable Breelove, Fannie P. Peck, Ray Tyler, Victoria T. Jernie Chaney, Laura F. Christian, Mary J. Dixon, Willie McAllister, Mary J. Dreer, Minnie Turner and Annie M. Malone. Organization, Which Got a Delegate To Paris in Spite of Government Ban, to Meet at Washington, D. C. For Three Days Washington, D. C.—Last week following the meeting of the local branch, in the Metropolitan A. M. E. church, which heard the details of the remarkable exploit of Delegate William Monroe Trotter of the league in outwitting the State Department carrying the cause of the race to the Peace Conference, executive officers of this organization, headed by Rev.

A Peculiar Phase of Chicago Riot The one peculiar part about the whole situation was the declaring of martial law in that part of the city occupied by colored people and enforcing as far as possible all of the rigors of the system, while the parts of the city occupied by white people were not subject to any such regulations. As a result, the colored people became desperate and it is asserted that the situation became so critical that although hundreds of colored families were suffering for the necessities of life, no white man could drive a wagon carrying relief and colored men had to be mustered into service to traverse the district. —Richmond (Va.) Planet. Score of Whites Held! Chicago, Ill.—Nearly a score of whites who are members of athletic and social clubs on the South Side were arrested last week Wednesday night in connection with the investigation of supposed incendiary fires during the recent race riots. Ten deputy state fire marshals and the police have been investigating since the arrest of the state's attorneys, men. The arrests were the first made by state deputies. CAT HAS SECOND SIGHT BENSE Trivial Incident Causes Her to Quit One Ship and Embark With Another. San Francisco, Cal.—Jimmy, a waterfront cat, that would be better named Jennie, is today hailed by seamen here as the wisest feline in the world. They assert that Jimmy has the second sight, which enables her to foresee coming events and govern her movements accordingly). The reputation is fastened on Jimmy as a result of the trouble which descended upon the steamer O. M. Clark, recently off the Channel Islands. For years Jimmy resided in the hold of the boat. She fressed on and jubilantly rats and enjoyed life. On several occasions, however, she gave birth to large families of litters, and was beloved of every member who trod the good ship's deck. On the day the vessel left port for its last voyage Capt. F. N. Higgins dropped a shipping register on the wharf. It fell open at the signal code page and revealed an arrangement of flags meaning: "I am starving, come at once." Horrified at this evil omen, Captain Higgins tucked the book under his arm and fled to his ship. Just as he crossed the gang plank he met Jimmy majestically departing. "Pussy, pussy!" wheeled Captain Higgins. Jimmy half turned about, regarded Captain Higgins fixedly for a moment, raised her eyebrows significantly, arched her tail, and stalked over to a steam schooner moored in Oakland Estuary where she took up her residence in a coal box and refused to be lured back to her old home. Captain Higgins set sail. The ship was blown off her course, and so beaten and buffeted by the howling storms that, in mid ocean, her crank, shaft broke and she wallowed in the trough of the sea, helpless. Food and water ran low. First Mate McAllister and four men put in a small boat. They arrived at Port San Luis, week and starving. Meanwhile the crew of the Clark had rigged a sail and the vessel limped in to San Diego and then to Oakland. Jimmie with several small Jimmies arrived on the steam schooner a few days later. DEADLY BOOSE Tried His "Darndest" to Violate Federal Laws But Failed. Fort Smith, Ark—The man who tried his darndest to violate the laws of the United States Government and miserably failed has been found. He is Bee Jones, a native of the Scott county mountains, and was dismissed by J. H. Dunbrazier United States commissioner, after he spent a night in jail awaiting an investigation of his alleged moonshine operations in Scott county. Jones told the government authorizes a story that rolled them into one long continual laughter. According to his tale he had experienced a streak of bad luck when he decided to tura moonshiner. He had a mortgage on his mountain home, and the man who held the mortgage closed in on him when he could not liquidate the indebtedness, Jones said. Then his son died and he was completely broken up." He tried to make a living by honest means, he said, and failed. At last he turned moonshiner, or started to "make a little money." The mountaineer said he bought a twenty gallon oil can, cut off the top and inserted a hardwood plug on the bottom. This served as his still. For a worm he secured a piece of cast iron pipe from a saw mill and bent it around a tree to make a coll. Jones further stated he traded a shot gun, worth $8 for three bushels of corn meal. He made a mash and attempted to distill it. "Onestly gents, that licker would kill a pole cat," Jones said, in describing the brand he manufactured. "Did you sell any?" inquired J. V. Dourland, district attorney. "Sell any? Lawd, man, you couldn't give it away. I dumped the whole licker and quit." Jones said the still was now reposing in the kitchen of a neighboring mountaineer who found it served a good purpose as a soap box. What became of his worm he did not know. Federal authorities state that Jones violated no law, although he tried mighty hard. Jones has been wanted arrest since last February. He evaded arrest by removing to Booneville. Recently he returned from Booneville to Scott county where he was arrested by Jim Thornton of Mena, deputy United States marshal. POLECAT IS BASELY LIBELED Theory That His Skunkship Never Battles is False. Fort Collins, Colo.—Some one has said that the polecat never takes a bath, and that he is afraid of water. He is wrong, and Dr. D. O. Norton of this city is ready to prove the assertion. He has just returned from a fishing trip in North Park, where he teamed the rainbow in the Platte. One morning his attention was attracted to six young animals which were playing on a sand bar a short distance away. A careful observation disclosed that they were of the genus skunk. With "safety first" uppermost in his mind, the doe crawled cautiously to a point of vantage from which he could watch the animals more closely, and declared that after they had apparently tired of play all sir ran to the water and swam out into the swift current as they had been so many ducks. PAPER:HANGING MADE EASY New Device Enables Inexperienced to Decorate Own Wallz. A tool that unrolls a roll of paper and spreads it with paste on a wall has been invented to enable the inexperienced to do their own paper hanging. FEMALE OSTRICH BOSS OF HOUSE MALE IN SOUTH AMERICA HATCHES ECOS SHE LAYS Explorer Reveals Secrets of Bird and Animal Life in Swamp Wilds There. A jungle adventurer, leon, loosely knit, with eyes the color of wood smoke, face inexorably bloomed by tropic sun and with a remarkably pleasant smile, sat at a big mughog table in the director's office of the American Museum of Natural History at New York, N.Y., rating off stories of South American exploration that might be hard for conservative minds to accept without photographs to back them up. But for every tall tale there were photographs. The jungle traveler was George K. Cherrie, friend and fellow explorer of Col. Theodore Rhoeaveus, who accompanied the colonel down the previous River of Doubt (et is the Rio Nhoeavev now), and who has just returned from bird and animal hunting in the Paraguayan and Paraguayan swamps. Just back with 2,000 bird skins and 400 animal skins for the museum, including many new and interesting specimens of the strange tauna of the southern continent and with 1,500 photographs of queer birds, Mr. Cherrie offered rapid word pictures of his adventures. He told of South American male ostrich, a truly home loving gentleman, who frivolous at ostrich cabbettes and tango parties; of newly discovered woodpeckers with bills curved like a stork; of parrot apartment houses, built on the community plan, with elevators for each floor; of giant amateurs that climb trees, and of other freaks and wonders of the dark, damn jungles. And first of all Mr. Cherie proceeded to demolish one or two immediately held notions of tropic bird and reptile life. He says it is quite a mistake to believe that tropic birds are usually brilliantly colored or that venomous snakes are the nuisance and danger in the tropics that they are even in this country. The explorer's blue eyes twinkled as he offered with some hesitancy the tale of the home loving heppecked ostrich. "One of the most interesting parts of my quest in the swanops of Paraguay, 100 miles in the interior of the little known country, was the study of the South American ostrich," said Mr. Cherie. "By working carefully, creeping forward on my stomach like a snake I was able to get some fine photographs of the ostrich. I discovered that the mule bird attached to the incubation of the eggs, while the female occupies herself in hiding and in other rather anomestic favours. "These outcrites, which are much smaller than the South African bird—about half the size—have community nests in which the females deposit the eggs and consider thereafter that they have done enough for the family. When the eggs are laid Paper Ostrich sits upon them, hatches them and then when the chicks peck to the open air, takes care of the family." The jungle man bethought: himself of the community parrots living all so cheerfully in their big apartment houses. And he reached for photographs before he told the story. "Nothing was more interesting," he said. "These parrots build immense nests in the tops of trees, nests made to accommodate 200 birds or more. The entrance to the community nest is from below by tubes of thorny twigs most cunningly devised and constructed. In fact the engineering genius displeased by the community parrots is astonishing. The entrance tubes lead to various parts of the big nest house and might be said to be elevator service for various groups. The nests are roofed slantingly so as to throw off rain." "Oh, yes," he added, I found many new specimens of the woodpecker family, including the wood hewer, a powerfully billed insect devourer which fairly rips the back to tatters when his hunger stirs him. One of the varieties has a bill four and one half inches long which is in the shape of a half circle or of a sickle blade. Mr. Cherrie paused. "Oh, don't stop," his visitors chorused. "Well, in that case," resumed the explorer, "I might tell you about the great anteater of South America that I caught in the act of climbing a tree. So far as I know science was unaware that the ant bear could shin up a tree, figuring that he stuck to the ground in his hunt for choice morsels of ant flesh—but I caught him climbing and I have protographs to prove it." NORWEGIAN FISH BY PHONE Instrument in Water Tells Presence of Schools. A strange way of discovering the whereabouts of fish is practiced in some parts of Norway, and the method was discovered by a clever Norwegian. A microphone, which is an instrument that will transmit the slightest sound, is lowered into the water from a fishing boat with a wire from the microphone is attached to a telephone fixed in the boat. The operator takes the receiver of the telephone and places it to his ear, ready to signal to the fishermen when he hears the least sound beneath the water, and the fishing boat is then immediately steered in the direction whence the sound comes. The result is—a splendid haunt. As cod, herring and mackerel swim in enormous schools their passagethru the water causes a rushing sound which is clearly heard by the fishermen, who immediately steer in the required direction, and let down their nets.

Brunage of Illinois, last week Wednesday, gave Chicago policemen a searching for their failure to exercise more value and firmness in deal with threats of riots and race riots. The attorney-general particularly criticized the police department for the comparatively few arrests it made of white men. He also said: "Segregation has been advocated as a remedy, but if there is any blood and bone in the constitution of the United States there can be no lawful restriction between citizens possessing equal political rights."

Mrs. Lyons writes the editor of The Gazette, under date, Aug. 6, 19: "Mr. Smith, Dear Sir: -Yesterday while in Woolworth's 5 and 10c store on the second floor I found these cards and some others burlesquing our people.

Dumas, "assistant chief chemist of the International Chemical Co., of Chicago," as his card read and he styled himself, who had been in the city for almost a week stopping at the Geraldine, was locked up in jail, last Thursday evening, as a suspect, on information furnished Chief of Police Frank W. Smith by the editor of The Gazette. Among those whom Dumas had promised positions in his alleged department of the International Chemical Co., at wages ranging from a week up, were M. A. Demmey, a former Pittsburgh attorney certify from Pittsburgh looking for employment in his line of endeavor, a Lieut. Rowe of E. 29th St. and Mr. C. Walker, a letter-carrier, of E. 37th St. and possibly others. Dumas claims to be a son of a Dr. Dumas for many years an employee of the government departments at Washington D. C. The Chemical Co. wired Diction Smith, last week Thursday, in response to a communication sent it the day previous, that no Dumas was in their employ. He is "a smooth and gilb" messenger. Demmey and Rowe were asked by Dumas to advance him $25 and $72, respectively, they told the editor, and Mr. Walker has asked of resigning his position as a letter-carrier to position with the Chemical Co., offered by Dumas, when he (Walker) phoned the editor, last week Wednesday, and was advised by the latter not to do so. When Lieut. Rowe called at The Gazette office, later the same day, he was advised not to pay Dumas a cent. The same advice was repeated given Mr. Demmey. "Dr." Dumas was brought in Police Court, Saturday, and a formal charge made against him to hold him until the Chicago police could get in touch with the International Chemical Co. officials there. Monday morning, one of his colleagues was taken up and the Doctor" gave a sentence of $25 costs, and thirty days in the workhouse, so the Police Court Clerk's office informed The Gazette, Monday afternoon. Wednesday morning the trial of the second case was to take place. It seems he got some money from at least two persons on his misrepresentations. BEST FOR THE BLOOD — Puro Herbs.

Don't Throw Away Your Copy of THE GAZETTE After Reading it, but Give It to a Friend or an Acquaintance who Might Subscribe after Reading a Copy of It OUR BISHOPS' RIOT VIEWS As Published Recently in the N. Y. World Donot Meet the Requirement—Only a Few Were Brave and Manly. The bishops of the distinctive Colored methodist branches of the Church were asked to give their attitude toward the recent riots in Washington and Chicago, the Bolshevik movement and the conduct of Negroes at this time. Without going into particulars it is safe to say that the laymen and lay-women of these churches will not be influenced by the majority opinion of those who spoke. Bishop Hurst, of Baltimore, Md., spoke out in no uncertain terms. Negroes of America respect the bishop for his manly stand. Bishops Clements and Coppin also rang true. The others dodged and showed themselves not the men for the hour. The New York World that wrote the historic editorial that all papers mentioned, wired their pages to the attention and doubtless to find out if its editorial rang true with the opinion of the leaders of the Church. The World saw in the riot at Washington a reign of "southern desperadoism." This it denounced because it was unAmerican. The World warned America that race riots in the future would be real and not one-sided as heretofore. The bishops, for the most part, cringed and urged "our people" to prove themselves worthy of "the good white people." Bishops, where were these "good white people" when southern white desperadoes were terrorizing our people in Washington and Chicago? Why did the bishops "good white people" take to the woods and leave our men to the mercies of the lawdusters and murderers? Why do these bishops and murderers? Why do these bishops and murderers? They say they resort to such to save their liberties. With cringing colored men, however, our people must be meek and truckling and not resent the injustices of lawless white men. The people in Washington and Chicago fought to save their homes and their lives. They were justified in doing so. They should do so again if a similar occurrence happens. They would be less than men had not met the white mob with a witching gun-fire. The bishops that cringe will not be respected so far as their advice is concerned. If Negroes feel that they are justified in being Bolshevik there is nobody in America to condemn them for it. The greatest Reds and I. W. W. in this country are the men in power who are exploiting the people for their pockets. It is as easy, and a little more so, for a governor, legislator, sheriff and mayor to be Anarchists as it is for the ordinary man. Behind the law, their cowards in office hide their anarchy and pride through the press on the anarchy of the oppressed. We do not. We are anarchists, justice and a square deal! All citizens should be lawabiding, but when the ruling class let loose and murder then it is time for the others to seek safety in defending themselves, and guilty now. The Methodist Church is not safe until the healthy spirit of Bishop Hurst pervades it and inspires its followers. Some Negroes may be low but there are white men equally as low. Many Negroes may be ignorant but it is not their fault. This class of "good white folks" permitted the Negro to drift to and drove him into ignorance. It is time for white people to show our people that they are lawabiding and worthy of being the rulers of this country! THE WASHINGTON BIOT Others may depreciate the Washing riot—we do not. It had to come. We are not surprised that it came in Washington for it is there the arch enemies of law and order reign. It is there the southern brute in Congress attacks an innocent people and holds them up as beasts to the world. It is there the national administration under the present President, enthroned "jim-crowism" and gave full sway to the southern prejudice and bigotry. It is at Washington that the stench of hypocrisy has risen so high until the whole world was stopping its nose at its sickening odor. Yes, Washington, the citadel of zero摧害 the United States federal government is still in the hands of southern sympathizers and we do not expect anything like justice. The Washington riot is a notice to the world that America is unfit to help fix any lasting peace for the world based on justice. It is left to us to fight. This we must do wisely. We must not be the aggressors but we must fight the southern "Hun" with deadly fire whenever he begins his murderous rampage. We must teach our children that it is ignitable to hate any one but that it is very manly to die for one's rights! We are as good as anybody. Just as moral as any other race. Have as a keen a sense of right and justice as any one else. We are far more loyal than the southern "Hun" who sought to destroy the Union and is now seeking to endanger it by his savage刀s and his right, with the God of right on our side. When it is ours to die we shall do it willingly, but pity the "crackers" that will precede us. (Rev) Wm A. Byrd. SOUTHERN "CRACKERS" IN THE NORTH No attention has been paid to the large numbers of "crackers" who came from the South in the past three years to work in the various plants (as for foremen, etc.) doing work for the government as well as others. Southerners high up in the employment of the government at Washington, D. C. encouraged this all they could, especially when letting companies account for the large number of "crackers" in the large industrial centers of the North and explains the great increase in prejudice and friction between the races in this section of the country. They are like "a poison fly in a pan of milk wherever they light up, "delighting in making all the trouble, as a rule, they can for our people. This is but a part of the South's propaganda to make the North treat our people here like they are treated in the South. Southern "cracker" soldiers and marines started the riots in Washington, D. C., a few weeks ago, and it is a well known fact that it was southern "cracker"s that was three or four southern "cracker"s in a high-powered Packard machine who tried to start a riot in Cleveland, last week Monday, when they tried to kill a colored soldier on his way to the depot, dashing upon him in broad daylight, in "a rough colored section," and shooting at him four times. Brethren of the race press make this clear to your readers and as far as you can to the whites of your respective communities, help ace the blame where it rightfully falls, following letter from one of our best pastors in this city is pertinent: Cleveland, O., Aug. 11, '19 Friend Smith—I have written the News a letter protesting the "cracker" influence that is surely in control of that paper. I called their attention to the insidious effort made, at the expense of your reputation, to stir up race trouble. I told them I believed the News an enemy and not a friend of the Colored people and I feared it and what would result from its veiled threats more than any advice found in any colored paper. The reference to the colored lads mistreated at Gartfield park, made in your paper, is correct, but we have succeeded in having the guards there dismissed and the policeman put on trial; also a thorough investigation of the stoning of a street-car in which four ladies and some children of my church and I were riding. I believe the chief of police, Mr. Frank W. Smith, is fair and intends to give us a square deal. I believe God sees our trials and does not look upon them with an unaffected eye. "He that formed the eye shall He not see?" Out of this is going to come some good. Yours in friendship, (Rev.) O. W. Childers, Pastor, St. James A. M. e. church. The following cowardly letter-threat is but one of several, of a like nature, received last week, after the publication of the News' contemptible attack on the editor of The Gazette, republished in this paper on page 4, and we believe was sent by a "cracker" employee of that paper: Cleveland, O, Aug. 3, '19 Smith:—If you think that such yellow "bucks" as you can "get away" with such "stuff" as you have been writing in your Gazette later, try it. We will make "short work" of such as you and your imported "Alabamians." You "lookout." The foregoing is a good indication of what the cowardly "cracker" is. Every last one of them ought to be "shunted" off South where they belong. We'll "lookout" alright and will so thousands of others of our people in this community, so as to be ready whenever "crackers" start any of that "short work" business. And when they do, if the cowardly "cowlings" ever screw up courage to try to be a story writing community, there will be a story written that be any less creditable than those our people of Charleston, Washington and Chicago have furnished. Of this all can rest assured.

HEALTH RESTORED BY FASTING Inventor Subsists Five Months on $4 Worth of Food. Greensburg, Ind. - By subsisting for five months on $1 worth of meal ticksets Prof. George Keoley, an inventor of this city, has restored his health after physicians had predicted his death from malignant gastritis. The disease was the result of a lifelong habit of overeating. A light meal once a week, supplemented by plenty of cold water, served to keep him alive until the disease had entirely disappeared, and now Keoley expects to eat a moderate meal once a day life is 60 years old. A man must either make way for himself or get out of the way of others. INVENTS TRAP FOR BURGLARS Detective Saya Device Will Handcuff Them Automatically. The life of the burglar will be fraught with a new danger if an invention by Detective Sergeant William Higgins of Youkers N. Y., does all that he says it will. The device according to Higgins, automatically handcalls burglar while they are at work. He says that 90 per cent of the burglar in Youkers are committed in homes that are closed either for a day or longer. Higgins purposes to attach a steel trap to the sides of drawers, of sideboards and bureaus, so set that as the drawer is opened the burglar's hands are fastened by handcuffs. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, AUGUST 23, 1919 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 an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance 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 found 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. FACTS People who Advertise Can sell Goods. People who sell Goods Can make Money. People who make Money can advertise goods. The Best Advertising Medium is "The Old Reliable" GAZETTE. REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING While it is true that occasional advertising will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant, persistent advertising will keep business growing during "dull days." The merchant who considers riches a burden should never advertise. His store may be like a summer resort in January. DO YOU advertise? 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." PROTEST AGAINST WRONG. To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on Protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare, beheaded, beheaded again to right the wrongs of many. —Ella Wheeler Wilcox. THE MAN WHO DARES. "I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, untolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty does not abate. The applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends."—Charles Sumner. Clothing Prices Reduced By Large Manufacturer Chicago, Aug. 16th—Mr. Jas. D. Bell, head of the Bell Tailors, Adams, at Green St., Chicago, Ill., said to be the largest made-to-measure clothing establishment in the world, recently stated that his firm is now able to quote prices on Fall and Winter suits 35 per cent below what the writer showed the writer a very attractive piece of all-wool cassiine for which they ask only $20.00 a suit made to individual measure, whereas the same fabric is now being offered by merchants at $30.00 to $32.00 per suit.
