The statement in this letter, last week, relative to Mrs Mary Broadly's being appointed to and accepting the presidency of a local branch of a newly established gossip club, composed of women only, and with headquarters in Montgomery, Ala., with branches in Pittsburgh and Cleveland, does that lady and also The Gazette an injustice which both resent in the strongest possible manner.

CADIZ. — The "Home-Welcome" celebration and picnic given to our returned soldiers, Aug. 28 of Chauqua park was a grand success. The weather was ideal and the growd was large and enthusiastic. A spiendid diner was served free to the soldiers. Our Martins Ferry band rendered many fine selections. At 5 P. M. Col. Charles Young, U. S. A. was given quite an ovation. At 6:30 a parade, led by the band, followed by the K. P. lodge, returned "soldiers" (twenty in number). Col. Young in an auto, the church Brotherhood, Sunday-school children and a large number of autos marched through the principal streets and back to the large park auditorium. After two patriotic selections by the band, Prof. W. H. Lucas introduced Hon. Rupert Beethem. Speaker of the Ohio House of Representatives, who welcomed the soldiers in the name of the state and Cadiz, after which he introduced Mr. Bartler Moore, who welcomed them. in the name of old Harrison County Mr. Moore then introduced the chief speaker, Col. Young, who was received with raptuous applause and for an hour held the large audience en- tranced with a most eloquent address filled with earnest appeals, surges- tions and advice. He also urged the highest patriotism, reverence for law and order, for the maintenance of peaceful relations among the races in America. His address, made a fine impression upon all who heard it.

OPEN LETTER TO CHAIRMAN HANS Of the Republican National Committee The South Carolina Democratic appointee Congress, Last Week. New York City, Aug. 26, 1919. Mon. Will H. Hays. Chairman, Republican Committee. 32 Fifth Ave. N.Y. City. My dear Mr. Hays: Yesterday in a meeting of the Poor of the House, a South Carolina Democratic resident. Jacob C. Grannung tain utterances of "micalfal" Negroes and prosecuted to arrest them. It would seem to me not to be out of order to determine what condition has brought about the state of mind on behalf of the state of mind that surrounded the state of utterances. It would be well would it not to determine if there are grounds for complaint. "We denounce robbery and murder of American citizens in Mexico and we denounce the Mexican government and we want to "clean up" Mexico for outrages upon Americans and rights of Americans. Is there not serious ground for "extreme" utterances on the part of Americans who are robbed of their franchise and who are being lynched here in America by southern Democrats." Colored people have left the south by the thousands to escape southern methods, by escaping Negro propagandists. They have shown this anti-Negro attack to be showing all the involved. Much of it is purely political, with the motive in view of discrediting the Negro as one way of discrediting the Republican party—precisely on the lines of the "Birth of a Nation." Then, too, this outlay about the Negro serves to act as a smoke screen hide the misuse of the south by a political autocracy. It is the duty of all good Americans to cause the colored people of the country to feel SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS See That Your White Friends and Acquaintances Read It, Too-It Will Help the Race Everywhere. To the Editor of The Cleveland Daily News:—Since coming to Cleveland and I have been a constant reader of The News, I selected your paper because it supports the Republican party and principles, and also, because I like many of its features. I am a colored minister and love my people and work. I write this note to protest the spirit your paper exhibits toward my people. There seems to be some influence that takes delight in using the paper to mold sentiment adverse to the best interests of the colored people of this community. Along with the colored people from the south have come, also, some white southerners. May not some of them with decided southern ideas relative to the race question, have gotten into your employ and diverted the spirit of your paper from an organ of a square deal to one that delightts to make more difficult the path of an infortunate people? Whenever there is occasion to make reference to the colored people, your paper colors the news in a way distasteful to many colored men; as was true when the colored soldiers returned to the city, when the pace rises took place and in your references to Editor Harry C. Smith, of this city. I would be far more afraid of what would result from what I read on the first page of your paper of August 2 than anything I ever read in a Norro paper. In an editorial on "The Race Problem" of the issue of July 30, you state that much of the unrest and disturbance of the present, is due to "the active and systematic proclosing done among the colored workers of the south by Bolsheviks." I do not believe your contention and if it were true, I wish to assure you the colored man will be the last individual to strike at organized government. We cherish no illwill toward any part of the American citizenry. We shall be happy to see every effort to contain good government succeed. I would rather young, unresponsible, white men of those northern communities, and leisureists aroused by the honors received by colored soldiers abroad. I am among my people every day and speak to them, every Sunday. I have exceptional opportunity to know their thoughts and desires. I assure you they trust the better-thinking white man, and, in their hearts long to aid the coming of the time when they may live in peace and quietude in any American, community. Mr. Editor, how would you like to go about your daily duties always in fear you will disturb the quiet of the community and bring upon yourself woe simply because you are a colored man? We go into public places, on street cars and into private stores and restaurants always expecting insult. We go to a church five weeks ago four children and I were stoned on a street car of this city for no apparent reason than that we were colored. We live constantly in dread of the result of, any disturbance between the races. A great paper, such as yours, could be a factor in moving that they are not by themselves to fight out their battles against a white America indifferent, to their real wrong. Cause these people to feel that America is for a square deal. This will go far to stop "radical" expressions. If we remove just reason for "extreme" language. Just recently a citizen of New York was in Austin, Tex. for a conference with colored people also conferring with state officials. He was beaten up, forced to buy a ticket to St. Louis and board him (the plane) but in the United States. This man is, I am informed, a democrat. The organization of which he is the secretary, has as its President, Hon. Moorefield Story, a distinguished democrat. The citizen of New York was beaten up because of his interest in Negro (American) people, which, to Texans, merited mob violence. The chief executive of that state has said as much. I trust this incident is sufficient to convince all northern Democrats, who are of a humane character, that affiliation with the southern Democracy is as much out of place today, in view of the existing political slavery in the south, as it was years ago in the days of the slave-owning Democracy in the town of New Orleans, in the facts involved relating to political repression in the south of whites as well as colored, ought to be placed before all the people of the entire country as one way of putting an end to this southern Democratic propaganda. Sincerely yours, Joseph C. Manning, (A native and long resident of the South). IN UNION IT IS STRONG FINE! childers' Protest Whole Truth and Nothing e Truth." the Friends and Acquain- o—It Will Help the everywhere. The colored people ask no special favor or privileges. We ask only even justice. We want the opportunity to develop and to be good citizens. We do not wish to be harassed into Bolsheviks and Socialists, but we desire above all things to be full-fledged American citizens. The American white man should not fear our loyalty. We have proven that from "Bunker Hill to Metz." This is not, a time to ridicule a helpless people or encourage bitterness against them of make veiled threats under the guise of news. At a time like this all good men and agencies, regardless of color, should join hands toward bringing about the reign of righteousness and should imbibe deeply the spirit of the Biblical saying, "Righteousness exhalt a nation." I trust that the great dailies of this magnificent city will refuse to allow their columns to be used by any influence to stir up race hatred or to ridicule a helpless and needy people, or by veiled news items being bodily harm from ruffians upon law-abiding and innocent citizens. O. W. Childers, Pastor St. James' A. M. F. Church: SHILLADY WAS TO BE KILLED! What Gave Rise to the Resentment That Resulted in His Being Severely Beaten at Austin, Tex., Recently. San Antonio, Tex., Aug. 25, 1919. Special to The Gazette Special to The Gazette Dear Friend—Rumor in this section says that it was the intention of "the guardians of law" to kill Mr. Shillady, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. The idea seems to have been to provide him to deflect himself and after the murder of dead men would have been found. But as Mr. Shillady says that two colored preachers had been telling white people that the N. A. A. C. P. was stirring up trouble between the races and that it was creating unrest among our people. In most places, thugs, toughs and gunmen assault law-abiding citizens; in Mexico, bandits are a little more courteous. When this gentry comes before the court they are charged with vagrancy, etc., and sent to the rock pile, but in Austin this occupation is taken over by the officials. So notify all bad men to avoid Austin as there will be nothing for them to do—Austin is a typical southern American town. Most of the inhabitants are old settlers from slavery. Few foreigners are there and many of the inhabitants are not fully aware that the Civil War is over. Let us be sure that Mr. Shillady was not there to preach social equality for any man that would try to persuade a black man to lower himself to the social standing of a judge on the bench and a sworn officer of the law who would beat one lone man as Shillady was beaten, ought to be dealt with severely. "Social equality in this instance." "Social equality in this time downward. Rumor has it that some day go, money has as it gives the Red Cross in money among the soldiers to entertain our returning soldiers. This money; so the rumor runs, was money; charged 25c at the entertainment provided. It seems that the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. investigated and protested against this procedure. In order to side-track this investigation the colored preacher told white people that the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. was creating unrest among our people, emphasizing the statement that they were promoting a craze for that phantom, "social equality." A feeling of resentment permeated the white people there who are ever ready to crush any sign of "social equalizing." While things were in this state Mr. J. R. Shillady appeared, and the result was that the resentment and spite was visited on him. We have not verified any of these statements but such is the story that is going the rounds. This will give two well know colored ministers an opportunity to clear themselves as their names are prominently mentioned in these rumors. Your friend, Will Edwin Smith. Judge M. J.

Mary are already saying that, if the Davis administration persists in its determination to have the affair at color-line Luna Park, they will NOT vote for Davis and Tom Fleming, candidates for mayor and councilman respectively, and both well-known, heretofore, as Luna Park "boosters."

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 or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantage facilities or privileges thereof shall be fine 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. Wheever 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.

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 When It Is The Form of Government Under Which We Live—Our Backs Are To The Wall—We Must Fight Back. Enforcing the Amendments We have watched with interest the vigor and enthusiasm displayed in the attempt to enforce the eighteenth 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. Why? These were enacted primarily to safe-guard the franchise and liberties of black Americans. White southern Americans have viciously opposed the spirit and letter of these amendments. They have practically nullified them and by so doing have made the south the ruling section of America. Not only has the nation winked at the nullifying of these amendments but has permitted it to place. In Congress represent the black electors for President, based upon the nullified franchise of black men. These southern congressmen have been most violent in their opposition to colored people. The reason is doubled, the castigation of conscience because of the theft they were practicing. The thirteen millions of colored people are determined 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 colored 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 that gives colored Americans their right to will it hear any other real man who has the courage to enforce the constitution and keep his sworn vow as President of this country. Colored men can facilitate this fight 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 slap at thirteen millions of the best citizens of America. The Republican party, born to safe-guard human rights and the American nation, cannot fail now. The Republican party owes it to itself to restore a democratic government in the American 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 democratic influence the constitution of the nation has never been safe. With the votes in congress not belonging to it, because the Republican party failed to reduce the representation of the south, southern white men have done defiantly what they pleased to both Negroes and northern whites. We call 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 when men by southerners who hate both the Yankee and Negro voters, let us say as one man to 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 end we hope to use effectively our votes. (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd WHY DO BASS STRIKE? Full Stomachs Go To Disprove The Hunger Theory. Why is it that a bass will strike at a bait? It certainly cannot be from hunger, for on a recent trip one three-pound bass was found with sixteen crawdish fish in his tummy. Yet he strack savagely when a bucklehead and piece of pork rind were tossed to his doorstep under a snag. Another fifteen-inch small mouth was found to have a frog in his stomach that measured eight and a half inches from the tip of the nose to the end of its foot. This bass was so fun that the frog's legs were projecting from his gutlet into his mouth like a strange tongue. Yet this bass hit the lure and fought savagely before he was laundered. In this month's issue of National Survival magazine, expert tabernans, states that frog are not built for bass, but that they are not found to contain frogs, probably because the frogs are to speedy for the bass. O. W. Smith, who conducts the angling department of Outdoor Life has made similar statements. This catch completely refutes any such statement, although it is true that only rarely will frogs be found, even when the bass are caught out of marshy ponds where the bass have every opportunity to feed on frogs. But if any one says that a frog is too swift for the bass he certainly is off, for a small mouth bass is about the speediest proposition that swims. REMOVING 'HEE HAW' "It was not until the war," says London Titlists that a way was discovered for taking the bray out of a mule. "Two very simple methods have been devised. The first of these is an operation that is performed on his tail. It is said that a mule cannot raise its tail it cannot bray. When a mule gets ready to bray, it first throws its tail up, and then mutiles in its favorite pastime. "Two small muscles at the top of the mule's tail control the raising of that appendage. If these muscles are severed the mule cannot raise its tail. This operation is very simple, and takes only a moment. "Another operation which acts as an efficacious dimmer of the mule's bray is the splitting of the false nostril. The mule's nose differs from that of the horse in that it has what is termed a false nostril. That is to say, it has a nostril through which it breathes, just like a hoose, and alongside of that nostril, a pocket which extends for several inches above the real nostril. "When the mule bray, the sound is greatly magnified by this false nostril. Therefore it has been found that the simple operation of splitting the false nostril, thereby making it a part of the real nostril, greatly subdues the sound of the mule's bray." BUGLESS POTATO By crossing a weed with a potato plant, Aaron Bell, a Lyons, Kansas trunk gardener, has developed a bigg- less potato. The leaf of the new plant has a weedy taste. Mr. Bell declares, which the bugs do not like and they will not touch the leaf. On the other hand, the potato plant is not harmed. According to a Norwegian scientist Saturn's rings are electrical phenomena, produced by the radiation of luminous particles from the planet, which rewrites them constantly. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO SEPTEMBER 6, 1919 COASTING On Cobblestones On Island Where There Is No Snow Or Ice. Cobblestones may not appeal to the uninitiated as ideal for coasting purposes, but they admirably serve the purpose. It all depends on how steep is the hill the cobbles pave. In other words, it isn't the material that makes the "slide," but the pitch of the slope. Those of us who are accustomed to sliding down snow-clad bills or tiny ascents made slippery by we snow little of the thrill a slide may possess. For some measure of the delight in the sport is frequently minimized by the frigid air that rushes past our tingling ears and some measure of the enjoyment is entirely lost by the chills that grip our shivering bodies. Imagine—if you can—the thrill of coasting down a billi so steep that your "sled" lies over the cobblies much as it would speed over crusted snow or an ice glare. Indeed, the icy air that almost chills you to the marrow at the thought, picture yourself in springtime garments and fanned by summer breezes. If you can manage such a picture you will have enjoyed at least some part of the sport of coasting in an island where there is no snow or ice. Down the cobble-paved road the "sled" lies. For ten minutes you flash along in breath-taking rush, then you begin to grow accustomed to the speed and the novelty of the sport and you take time to look about you. But—like most other enjoyments—just as you are beginning really to enjoy it to the utmost your coasting end. Where is this extraordinary slide? On the island of Madeira, which belongs to Portugal, and lies on the Atlantic coast, off the coast of Morocco. SOME STRANGE SUPERSTITIONS Superstition keeps the Chinaman's house low. He thinks it unlucky to live high above the ground. You never see Chinaman over here living in the second or third spies of buildings. Nearly always their restaurants or bureaus are on the first floor or in basements. Eggs milk or baby drinks it unlucky. Eggs milk or baby until he is baptized, and as the little creature is not baptized until he is a year old just fancy how he must book. In Siam all white animals are sacred for it is believed that they contain the souls of good and great men who have come back to earth for some wise purpose. A white elephant they think surely houses the soul of a king, hence a white elephant is the most sacred or all. As you probably remember, the white elephant is the symbol of the little country and appears on its flag. A great celebrations elephant is found great celebrations in Thailand is brought in great state to the palace and fed with thearest delicacies. In Holland, Germany, Norway and Sweden the people believe that the stock brings them good luck, and do all that they can to tempt the long-legged birds to build nests in the chimney tops. STREET CALLED STRAIGHT The most famous street in Palestine is the "Street Called Straight." By this phrase was the thoroughfare of Damascus immortalized in the Bible story of St. Paul, and since then, visitors to Damascus are always eager to see the historic way. The Street Called Straight is not difficult to find, for it runs across the city and from the east gate to the bazaars and is the main street of Damascus. In the old days it was much more prepossessing than it is now. It was wider, and its importance was demonstrated by a grand colonnade that separated it into sections for pedestrians and vehicles. Since it has shrunk and deteriorated in grandeur though it has sturdy clings to its important position as the first street in the city. It is one of the few 'wide' streets in a city where the popular conception of a street is a lane so narrow that the bay windows of the houses on opposite sides touch. It has for centuries been called Straight. It might more accurately be called Crooked, for it bends frequently, but considering the nature of adjacent streets, the most tortuous in the east, the name becomes appropriate by contrast. It is undoubtedly the straightest street in Damascus. A paganist of romantic eastern characters is always passing on the Street Called Straight. Shoppers and doepeepers in bright colored robes, Mohammedans and Christians, all types and races known to Palestine gather here. Mong the side of the street, the chief object of historic interest is the house of Ananas who figured in the drama of Paul's conversion. The present structure on the site is a little skylab, chapel where services are conducted in a dim underground room. An ingenious device is being experimented with which will do away with a great deal of the danger encountered by aviators in making a landing, especially at night. It consists of a small bulb attached to a wire hanging from the aeroplane. When the bulb touches the ground, an electric connection immediately switches on a small light in from of the pilot, who knows then that it is within so many feet from the ground, and can act accordingly and to save his machine from disaster.
