Must we sign away our proud birthright in an agreement to treat the Jews the same as ourselves? The "capitulations" stipulate that Poland must assure the Jews full and complete protection, the free exercise of their religion, and their share of public funds for education, religion, or charitable purposes. They also have to the right to use their own language. The Poles, like the Russians, have treated the Jews as the southern people treat our people. Whenever the common people had any bitterness over anything the Poles and the Russians have attributed it all to the Jews.

Shilladay of New York, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored people, headquarters in that city, was severely beaten in front of his hotel here today by several white citizens, and ordered to catch the first train out of town. Shilladay, who is white, agreed to leave town at once. The incident followed a meeting held with Negroes by Shilladay. About two works ago, local officers ordered the disbanding of a local branch of the association, on the grounds that the association has no permit to do business in Texas. At this time feeling ran high, both whites and blacks amusing themselves. Shilladay came to Austin yesterday and had a conference with the attorney general regarding the charter of the association. Local officials hauled him before a court of inquiry, yesterday afternoon, and interrogated him as to the object of his visit. They claim that his association has for its purpose the bringing about of "social quality" and that he advanced arguments along this line. His meeting with Negroes today following these conferences was not interfered with, but as he returned to his hotel his assistants met him and administered a severe hearing with their fists. A constable then escorted him to the depot, where he bought a ticket for St. Louis. The constable warned him not to stop in Texas. There is now no indication that local Negroes present the occurrence.—San Antonio, Tex.) Daily Light, Austin, Tex., Aug. 22 — County Judge Dave K. Pickle, of Travis county, declared John R. Shillady had been "inciting Negroes, against whites," and had previously been warned to leave Austin. Judge Pickle said the attack on Shillady was made by himself. Constable Charles Harvey and Bon Pierce, none of whom he declared would shirk legal or other responsibility. John R. Shillady lived in Detroit until 1902. His mother, brothers and sisters, two of the latter being teachers in the Detroit public schools, live at 115 Kendallorth avenue, Detroit—Detroit (Mich.) Free Press; Aug. 23, 1919.

August 1, 19 Fruit Cocktail SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS When It Is The Form of Government Under Which We Live—Our Backs Are To The Wall—We Must Fight Enforcing the Amendments We have watched in the vigors and epithets of the players in the attempt to enforce the thirteenth amendment to the U.S. Constitution. We believe that every amendment when made a part of the constitution, should be rigorously enforced. The fourteenth and fifteenth amendments have not been enforced. When there were enacted primarily to prevent the franchise and limitation of black americans, White southern Americans have been permitted to participate in the national college elections for President based upon the old franchise of black men. The new congressmen have been permitted to participate in the national college elections for President based upon the old franchise of black men. The new congressmen have been permitted to participate in the national college elections for President based upon the old franchise of black men. IN UNION WE SPREAD RCED! d On Race Riots Meet Violence With ence of Government Under Our Backs Are To We Must Fight uck. minded that the long nullified amendments shall now be restored to their place and power in the government. This nation should hide its face when it forces the coloured men in America to fight to maintain their franchise. These amendments can be enforced if a man like Ulysses S. Grant is elected the next President of the country. Just as Grant served notice on the south that it must respect the constitution, he must repose Americans their votes, and the south heard him, so will it hear any other real man who has the courage to enforce the constitution, and keep his worm vow as President of this country. Colored men can facilitate this right by pledging their votes in every state of the union to stand by the man that will pledge himself to enforce these amendments. We look to the Republican party to bring this man to the attention of the voters of this nation. To refuse to enforce this portion of the constitution is a cap at thirteen millions of the citizens of America. To the republican government, human rights and the American nation, cannot fail now. The Republican party owes it to itself to restore a democratic government in the south as well as in the entire nation. For the last six years, democratic government has disappeared from the nation. The policy of ignoring and disregarding the interest of the American nation for years, is the old policy of the south toward the Negro-transferred to the nation. Under southern demographics, the southern white men have done defiantly what they pleased to both Harriets and northern whites. We will upon colored voters in states, outside of the south where an honest vote is cast and counted, to use their votes to enforce the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments. Let us not waste our time, by dickering with the Democratic party for it has shown us that whenever it is victorious, the nation is run by southerners who hate the Union and Negro. We must have Mr. Will Hays and the party that we expect them to do this little job and that soon. Let us have aspirants for the presidency understand now that the enforcement of these amendments constitute our unanimous opinion and that to that we hope to use effectively our votes. (Rev.) Wm. A.

ANOTHER “CRACKER” ATTACK However much The ~Gazette may have pated to John. R. Shillady’s seven or eight thousand dollar salary, as sécretary of the N. A.A. C. P., we have never failed to reeognize the fact. that he is a “live wire” secretary, and to say so in these columns. While we have. criticised the Association's marked failure to take the lead in the big race efforts of the past. and pre- sent, and its. failure to, show. any in- tentian of doing: so in the future, Mr. Shillady cannot be wholly blamed for this and we hold him responsible for it-only, in part, Regardless of, the ‘foregoing, and all else, we are with Secretary Shillady and against. those iow-down white brutes and ruffians of Austin, Texas, who showed their “eréckex” breeding and. environment in that cowardly attaek upon him, last Friday. It is useless, we. presume, to even think of securing. their pun- ishment in any of the local -courts. They know it and indirectly bast. of it in the dispatch ta the Detroit Free Press, republished. elsewhere,:in. this Paper. Since city, county and. state and federal officials are all: southern democrats, there seems. to be abso- Iuitely-no probability of the “cracker” offesders’ punishment, we _ regret greatly to have to say.

THRILLINGLY INTERESTING Account of the Washington Riot By @ White Journalisg,‘an, Eye- Witness—H« le! Washington, D. C.—From my win- dow above the howling, snarling, swearing rioters, when fully 3,000 were jammed ' into two short ‘blocks of which the Patent Of- fice formed one long side. I studied this surging crowd for over two hours and a half. It was a brightly lighted, ‘on-residence street, and a one-way street, the “way” being right under my window. Again I say that much ofthe mob was. white; 1 doubt. if were: 50 Negroes among them. The: mob was comprised of | young white meniwho had not an idea to 2 humdred. ‘They were an irresponsible, ignorant, -impudent,: swashbpekling ‘lot. Barly-in the evening there was fnot. a ‘policeman in the. ares. men- tioned—aunlens he might have been in pain lathes: It wae an. armed. moby: these irre- sponsible, yelling, blaspheming. young white men. I know they were armed with pistols and six-shooters, because every little while some one would fire one of these into the air, which tend- ed to make my windows rather dan- gerous, but no harm was done there. The language used by these young white ment is unprintable. The ribald jests they flung about, the threats they made, the advice they yelled to one another was all provocative ‘of bloodshed. At either end of these two blocks were Ninth and Seventh streets. Rioting there was continuous, gun firing frequent. Two men were killed and many injured. As the killings were announced, the mob I have de- seribed would surge first to one cross ‘street. and then the other with a roar and thudding of fast-running of thousands of feet. Then in a few minutes they would surge back to the other cross street. Sometimes, when wild rumor flew thru the air that mounted troops were coming, thou- sands would seck refuge on the Pat- ent Office steps, where, behind its grim. granite pillars, they found safe refuge. * ‘Officers Did Not Interfere Not am officer; Government or po- lice, interfered. | ‘The watchman of | the’ Patent Office viewed the turbu- {lent crowds from the brilliantly illu- minated upper windows of the big building. These white’ men were “egging” the colored men on to desperate deeds—deeds without a name. We are held highly responsible for per- mitting German propaganda to cireu- late among us. Why should the Washington police or any city police permit: things of this kind to go on? ‘These white men were inciting ignor- ance, searcely less dense than their own, to do awful things. A machine gun’ fired down those two blocks couldn't have missed a traitor, for not one of the mob but was howling trea- son unspeakable. | There might have been some excep- tions; too, for in that mob were doz- eng of little boys from 10 to 12 years old. They ran back and forth and velied and screamed with the rest. Why didn’t the police turn these kids neross their knees, spank them till they'd eat for a week standing, and send them home? They remained to the end, * | then there were, eallow. youths in white sand young’ girls in white, aR close to the buildings, all of them chewing gum, the girls screaming and giggling, the youths swenring: Rie round, vaudeville oaths. Yes; ai there’ were handsome limousines. with women in full even- ing dress—indeed, almost every kind of a motor vehicle, and all crowded with well-dressed ‘women. — Really | vou know, it is difficult. to picture our Amerieun’ society woman as thus filled jywith animal curiosity.

Sec. 12941. Whoever. violates -the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the per- son aggrieved thereby to be recov- ered in any court of competent jur- isdietion in the county where such of- fense was committed. ‘This law has repeatedly been: held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is ‘our people will not se 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 REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING While it is true that occasional ad- ortising will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant, persist- ent 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 cireumstance or condition may imagine he is wise, but, his com- petitors have no desire to disturb his imagination. It's a good time to “get awake.” CORRESPONDENTS WANTED The old reliable Gazette desires an active agent and correspondent in every city and town in Ohio and nelghboring states having a number of Afro-American residents.

Shall we elect him for one of the worst reasons of al, because he is 4 Republican or a Democrat? Op shall we elect lim becanse he is awiully nice and speaks to us whenever we sec him on the sircets?” Mrs. Schoonmaker's tones were of decpest religion. “Girls,” she warn- ed, “these are the reasons that prompt men to vote. Let ws heware of them.” Mrs. Schoonmaker then jaid down a law: “Ladies, we don't get the best mayor when his election is mixed with politics. When we vote, let_us Teale polities out af the question.” The women voiers were then given 1 few kindergarten first principles uy Mrs. Schoonmaker. “For instance, when we women vole for a street cleaner, why not, for a chance, yore for a man who’ knows a little” bit about street cleaning? Though, for that matter, woman is the natural street cleaner by experience and he- redity. "Yes," allowed Mrs-+ Trueworthy White,’ of Roston, “and when we get ‘elected: to street cleaning bureans sc wlll invent a nice new vacuum strect cleaner. It will scoop up the dirt easily and it will he a pleasure to run it over the street.” Here are some gems from the | meeting about sundry political tricks “the boys” may be up to: “The only reason for two. political parties is that when one gets so had you can’t stand it any longer, why, them, you can put it out and put in ‘the-other. “The man voter,* Mrs. Schoon- maker said, “knows everything.

Our voters are demanding of the Republican organization that it holds the " corn roast and outing" in September, elsewhere than at Luna Park and are right in so doing. Many are already saying that, if the Davis administration persists in its determination to have the affair at colorline Luna Park, they will NOT vote for Davis and Tom Fleming, candidates for mayor and councillman respectively, and both well-known, heretofore, as Luna Park "boosters."

MANY TREES GO TO WASTE Federal Official Points Out What Might Be Gained by Proper Utilization of Paper. The amount of waste paper collected in all of Great Britain was about 1,000 tons a week in 1914. By 1918 this had been Increased to 6,000 tons per week, or an increase of approximately 500 per cent, said H. L. Boulderspeger, chief of the waste reclamation service, United States department of commerce, in a speech to the Federation of Women's Clubs. "Waste material is the protector of our natural resources. Waste paper, utilized in the manufacture of other paper material serves as a substitute for wood pulp. It requires eight trees of mature growth to produce a ton of paper pulp. Every ton of waste paper which can be substituted will save eight trees for other uses. In our urban centers we send annually to the dump approximately 13 tons of usable waste material for every 1,000 inhabitants, and 20 per cent of this tonage is made up of waste paper. "Based upon the approximation of the present population of our country, we are sending annually to the dump at least 150,000 tons of waste paper, or twice as much paper as was collected in all of Great Britain in 1018. This amount represents the substituted power for at least 1,200,000 trees of mature growth." FREAKS ENTITLED TO FAME European Families That Had More Than Ordinary Claims to World's Attention. There is living at Bilbao, Spain, a family of seven who between them possess no fewer than 104 fingers. One of them has 23 fingers, another 21, while of the remaining five each can boast a couple of hands with 12 fingers spice. At Koshlivo, Russia, a very similar phenomenon exists in the fifty or more descendants of a peasant with extra fingers on his hands, who married at the beginning of the last century, all of whom are dowered with from one to five fingers in access of the normal number. The last surviving member of what was perhaps the record family with regard to weight was, in the person of Charles Akins, a few years back interred at Harrow, England. He weighed 476 pounds, his brothers, who predeceased him, being no less than 504 and 500 pounds. The family record for longevity has not been beaten since Robert Parr, the great-grandson of the celebrated Thomas Parr, died in 1557 at the age of one hundred and twenty-four. His father lived to celebrate his one hundred and ninth birthday, his grandfather reached one hundred and thirteen, while his great-grandfather was 152 at the time of his death. There is mentioned in the Harleian Miscellany a Scotch weaver and his wife who were the proud parents of 62 children, 50 of whom reached their majority. Large as this family was, its fame pales before that of a Russian, one Ivan Wassilii, who was the proud father of 87. By his first wife he had 89 children in the following order: Four times quadruplets at a birth, seven times triplets and 10 times twins. By his second spouse he had twice triplets and six times twins. Undoubtedly the record for misfortune belongs to a Belgian family named Adnet. The father, Jean Adnet, was drowned; his wife committed suicide, while of his two sisters one was killed by the kick of a horse and the other by a blow received from a falling scaffold. Jean Adnet had six children, four sons and two daughters. Of these the latter perished through the overturning of a pleasure boat. One of the sons was stabbed in a drunken brawl, another was crushed to death by a heavy wagon, while the remaining two, who emigrated to America, were stained in 1891, while fighting for Balmaceda against congressists — Stray Stories 15,000-MILE DRIVE MOUNTAINS AND DESERTS ARE CONQUERED BY DARING YOUTHS. Not unlike their venturesome ancestors, who roved the seas, coastur-ago, Thure, Emil and David Stry-land of Viking, Minna, have completed a 14,000-mile land voyage covering more than half the United States. The tour was made in a touring car, which during most of the journey pulled a trailer, as he as the car itself, loaded with a camping outfit and tools. Being carpenters, the youthful tri-ger out from their home several months ago with the intention of paying their expenses along the way by working at their trade. They journeyed west over the Rockies and Cascade mountains, through the national park district to Seattle. West At Seattle they followed their trade for a time. Later they worked in Vancouver. Snow in the Shasta mountains forced them to ship their car from Vancouver to San Francisco, the next lap of their journey, whence they traveled leisurely down the western coast, traversing many byways in the Yosemite valley and Big Redwood district and stopping at Los Angeles and San Diego. Leaving the coast they started east through the Imperial valley and California desert, with Eastland, Tex., as their objective, crossing the Sierra Nevada and the Rockies a second time. In the Rockies they came upon a stranded car, which they roped behind the trailer and they hauled both over rough roads of the "Great Divide". From the Rockies they plunged into the Great American desert, which they negotiated without mishap save the loss of their worn-out chains. From Kirkland they traveled to Bronxville on the Ri Grande passing through the Texas sand wastes. The deep sands of the Texas desert proved a crucial test, they declare. From Brownsville the Styrdhills made their way to Corpus Christi and from there began their trip homeward by way of Baton Rouge La., and thence north through the Mississippi valley to St. Louis From St. Louis they proceeded to Duluth, not many miles from their home town. ORIGIN OF PHRASE It would be interesting, if they could be traced out, to ascertain the origin of half the quaint old sayings and maxims that have come down to the present time from unknown generations. Who, for example, was "Dick" who had the old looking "that-hard" and who so long has been the synonym or representation of oldly-acting people? Who knows anything authentic of the leanness of "Job's turkey" which has so many poverty-striken initiators in the ranks of humanity? Scores of other sayings there are concerning which similar questions might be asked. How many persons in fact know how the familiar expression "Mind your P's and Q's" originated, in spite of the pains taken, a few years ago by a modern antiquition to expound it? According to this authority, the origin was as follows: In all houses, in the olden time, when chalk 'scores' were marked upon the wall or held the door on the tep-room, it was customary to put the inmals 'F' and 'Q' at the head of every man's account, to show the number of 'punts' and 'quarts' for which he was in arrests; and we may readily presume many a friendly rapped his neighbor on the shoulder when the latter was indulging overfreely and pointing to the chalk score, said 'Mind your P's and Q's' mind your P's and Q's'. WHEN YOU WRITE TO THE PRESIDENT Through long years of experience the clerks in the executive offices at Washington can sit out the propaganda correspondence with unfailing eyes. Propaganda has always been the favorite work of a large number of agitators, although it took the war to show what force lies in the agency. But there is something about a nation wide propaganda that overcaches itself. At the White House there is no difficulty in detecting the impaired letters, for they always bring out the same main idea along the way suggested by this propagandist. When this mail is segregated the remainder goes more careful consideration.

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 M. Hon. Joseph C. Manning Says Southern "Crackers" Talked During the Rioting "The Attitude of the Afro-American"—Dr. Wm. A. Byrd on "An Insidious Propaganda". (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.) Nothing so well serves to distract consideration from the methods and practices of leaders of the Democratic party in the South as agitation against the Negro. To one who has lived in the South, who has taken part in political campaigns, the playing up of stories of alleged assaults and the like, charges of criminality as against colored people, is no new thing. It always occurs in districts or States where any serious effort is made to attack the misrule of the Southern Democracy. Anti-Negro propaganda is the smoke screen behind which the Southern politicalocracy hides its lynchings of the rights of all the people. So, it was not difficult for me, an onlooker in Washington, to hear the recent event the facts have told us. The recent event riot the national capital. I was there from July 12 until August 1, and had full opportunity to listen in on conversations and to gather up sentiment. Old-time Southern Democratic sentiment and Southern democratic methods played the part that brought on the violence. Two men seated themselves at a table n a restaurant opposite where I was sitting. It was Sunday evening, about 11:45 July 27. One remarked to the other "As I came down the avenue, awhile ago, I saw a gang of fellows seize a little nigger and give him a terrible beating up." Then came the inquiry "What was he doing?" The reply was: "Nothing, except going along. Whereupon the man with the inquiry said, Well that's the way we do it down home. We have simply got to do something to terrorize these Washington niggers to keep them in their place." The conversation of these men soon developed the information that the one was from Georgia who indorsed indiscriminate attack upon all colored people. It was not difficult to understand anywhere in Washington that anti-Negro sentiment, violent in expression, was common on the part of Southerners holding positions in the departments. They deeply resem the idea that colored people should have been the main positions. It was been the main situation in this racial riot in Washington. The assault stories, alleged as bringing about the anti-Negro demonstration, were, overworked Southern political propaganda of the "damn a nigger anyhow" variety. Washington police have wanted a raise in pay; they have wanted more men on the police force; they have agitated for this for months; and, when the propaganda of the Southerners started against the Negro they were not asleep to the possibility that a little trouble would help their cause along. Colored people in Washington feared, and they had good reason to fear, a repetition of the methods employed in the Atlanta riot, when colored people were attacked on every hand, everywhere, even in their homes. My opinion is that precisely this thing would have happened in Washington had not the colored people shown the spirit of resistance that they had. The police who had made up Washington Negroes had made up their minds that they would not die like rats. It got the verdict from the Southern mohocratic jury, the real lesson that the anti-Negro Southern mob in Washington had learned from their experience, when a "black belt" Democrat said to me: "This thing in Washington surprises me. I am astonished at the resistance put up by these Washington niggers. I am no nigger-hater. A nigger is a useful animal in his place. These folk in Washington will have to find some other way to teach these Washington niggers their place. We are going to have trouble in Birmingham with the niggers down there. "Oc." The conversation was closed by my remarking that he would find that colored people, South and North, will no longer tamely submit to old-time methods of "terrorizing," and that he had as well count upon it that the colored people in Birmingham would not now die like rats any more than did the Washington Negroes. Who can blame any man for fighting back when he has at the least, come to the conclusion that he has got to die anyhow and prefers to make some sort of defense than he heaten to death or shot to death without turning a hand against the mob? This is simply the feeling of the Negro. He has been bounded until he reasons that he has to take his last stand. This riot once hate is too bad. It is shameful, and in most part, it all arises from political buncomble put forward by Northern Democrats that they may 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, '19. ATTITUDE OF THE AFRO-AMERICAN The American Negro has been accused of practically everything under the sun. He has been persecuted and spit upon through public sentiment; he has been ignored by those who reckon themselves contributors to civilization; he has been placed in the category of the kingdom of the lower animals by separate car transportation; he has been deprived of the privilege to speak for himself in a land whose founders spit their taxation without representation;" he has mercifully led as a sheep to his slaughter by the ignorant mob of the South, thus suffering at the hand of which he has been benefactor for decades; they have said he is not a fit soldier despite his record to the contrary; they say he is not a builder and creator in face of the all-important part he played in the economic development of American democracy (?). One white man in the South said that there was no objection to the exodus of the Negroes North, despite the efforts of his fellow to escape Negro in the South. They say they do not want him and yet when he goes we hear the lamentations of, the Negro's home, his beloved South, saying, "All of our good colored citizens are leaving." Why is this? Is it that the white man of the South really has within his heart a tender regard for his dark brother? Can the two hundred and fifty years accumulated relations and feelings and possibly love be crumbled in so short a time, as half a century? It is not to be believed. Yes, the Negro has been accused of practically everything, but there are two things not against him. No man has ever accused him of being a coward (Isaac Fisher) and we add ungrateful. When some of the unthinkable white folks of South begin to be seen themselves in to exalted murderous old Ku-Kluks-Klan of reconstruction dues and similar organizations, let it be remembered that it is a far cry from reconstruction to the present and that the Negro can be desipl. legislated against, "ijm-crowed," disfranchised and at times even upon, but he can not be scared. He has been too long living in the "Home of the Brave." Yet, withal, THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, AUGUST 30, 1919 in his manly courage, he is meek and conciliating and loves the South. He is grateful for the history of his people and their relation to "Old Mistie" and "Old Marster" and still sings the songs of his fathers like no initiator has been able to copy, but with his wagon hitched to the star of civilization he is looking toward Service and not servitude; he wants, and is tiring recognition for his ability, ability, like trouble is neither black nor white, but comes to every mother's son of us. Whenever the white man of the South, or any other section for that matter, walks up to a full realization of democracy and vittily tures up a man's progress according to his ability and not color, then it is that America may lay claim to being a democracy. The absence of a king in the White House is not blatant, but not exactly a democratic government. The war has one a lot for the white man and it as done a lot for the Negro. It got he white man in a state of preparedness. It got the Negro into the habit of weighing things—putting two and two together—not exactly "watchful sitting," for the Negro has always seen visionary and can see into the future. This is not superstition but gift of God. There is a story told if a black regiment in the last war whose watch word was a slang phrase, Let's go." Whatever the command, whether to peel potatoes or to peel he basket, he has always called "Let's go." This slang phrase represents about as forcefully as anything could under the sun the Negro's present attitude. Whatever may come it's going to be with the American Negro. Let's Go!"—Richmond, (Va.) Planet. AN INSIDIOUS PROPAGANDA Many of the southern news-papers, as well as the papers of the District of Columbia, were industriously publishing "attacks by colored men against the white women," in truth in it. No 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 harbidity as shown in their dealings with colored people. The entire south has lived a lie for thirty years. It was told the world what the south was doing was necessary, if civilization was to be maintained. America has hypocrite enough to pretend that it believed it. Now America covers its face in shame because of the savage men who doing the same to white southern men who spares neither their white nor colored "women. He is a beast of the lowest prey and will use every means to destroy virtue wherever he meets it. Because of his base morality he it 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 an incited, for they feel colored men are the victims of the white southern brute that white men did to the colored face. There are instances where illicit relations may occur between white women and colored men in the 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 innocent propaganda now being carried on in America is the continuation of the one begun by white officers and privates of the south in France, France, and France, that those white brutes are liars and drove them out while colored soldiers are welcomed. There must be no quarter given to the monumental bids of creation. Colored men, since they know their schemes, should be careful and whenever in their innocence a southern white brutes attacks him or attempts to ar- THE MARK W. rest him on a trumped up crime, kill him on the spot. Then kill till some one kills him. The southern white man is a coward. He is still the gregarious savage. He is mighty 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 intentions of human beings together neither the two 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 detergatory t. a colored man and white woman is started by a southern white man, one is justified in pronouncing it a lie begun for ulterior purposes. (Rev.) Wm. A.
