WILLBERFORCE. — Wilberforce University opened its 63rd session in Galloway Hall with an address by President W. S. Scarborough, on "The Coming Crucial Years." In the discussion he emphasized the need of preparation of the thorough education of the race, of working for uplift, of wise, prudent speech and action in the present state of unrest and irritation. The enrollment is the largest in the history of the school—nearly 1,000. New applications are received daily. All dormitories are already overcrowded. Many are being denied admittance and placed in dormitories. One of the new dormitories is imperative. These—with the necessary science building, a memorial to Dr. William Hayes Ward—will be the object of President Scarborough's immediate campaign for funds. The University is in a most prosperous condition. Courses have been enlarged and the teaching force increased. More funds now are greatly needed to meet the necessities of this growth.

Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law, as compensation for humiliation in being ejected from the Empress theater because, as the plaintiff, George McCullough, alleges, he was dark of color, was tried recently before Judge W. J. Ahern and a jury. McCullough alleged that he was seated in the center of the theater, April 9, 1917, when one of the employes of the house came to him and demanded that he and a companion leave, and when they refused a police officer was called and elicited by the McCullough action was made because of his color. This fact was proven at the trial! The theater, long known for its discriminatory juices, declared McCullough's allegations were false. McCullough recently returned from France, where he served as a member in the wireless signal corps. A prejudiced jury refused McCullough a verdict which he will surely soon get as he has appealed the case. The Court of Appeals will give him JUSTICE as usual. Evidence that the I. W. W. organization is still endeavoring to arouse our people here to action against law and order was uncovered, in the arrest of three officers of the organizers. Police seized inflammatory pamphlets which the organizers had for distribution in our sections of the city. The pamphlets were violent in tone and urged our people to take immediate steps to punish members of the white race to secure "redress" for wrongs which were vividly pictured. Two alleged headquarters of I. W. W. workers here were raided by police. YOUNGSTOWN—Dr. I. Garland, sec. F. A. S. will deliver an address at Hancock hall, E.

WILLIAM STOLTE Candidate for the City Council in Ward 19—A Life-long Active Friend of the Race—Elect Him! Prior to two years ago, Mr. Stoltz had been a member of the Street Railway Committee of the City Council for four years and a consistent advocate of three-cent fare. He was chairman of the Committee on Streets and advocated the extension of main thoroughfares, also the construction of sewers, so that the city would be in shape to make use of the sewage disposal plant when it was built. Councilman Stoltz was chairman of the Committee on Building Code, to provide better housing conditions for all of our citizens; at the same time being careful not to put too much of a burden on persons desiring to build a home. He was also a member of the Finance Committee which passes the budget used in the city to run the government. It is hardly necessary for The Gazette to call the attention of our voters in the 19th ward to the fact that Mr. Stoltz has always been a loyal and consistent friend of the race who believes in doing for them and not merely talking. This was as true before he was elected to the City Council as it club—Prof. Rich, Wickfield's splendid orchestra rendered fine music at the Country club, Saturday evening—J. R. Ross has given all his baby, Juanna, —Mr. Sully Johnson, Boy Scout-master, has planned a reception, for them Hallo'een night. An interesting program, including an address by their councilman, Mr. D.

SILBERT Candidate for Re-Election to the Municipal Bench 6 Year Term—Efficient and Deserving Judge Silbert has had a remarkable career. He has risen by his own efforts and perseverance from newsboy to judge. He has been humane and considerate to the unfortunate, the enemy of the crook. Before becoming judge, Attorney Silbert was police prosecutor. As such he drove out the dope peddler, the fake employment agency and established the Summons System. As judge he inaugurated the famous "night-court" wherein domestic difficulties might be adjusted. Judge Samuel H. Silbert has always been a true friend of the Colored people. He realized their difficulties and was always their charisman. Every colored man was assured of a square deal in his court. He deserves your support — has earned it by his ability and his conduct in office. Place your (X) beside the name of Samuel H. Silbert, six year term. Silbert Campaign Com., S. C. Reasner, secy. If the person who sent us a communication relative to a dentist, who advertises in The Gazette, will be brave enough to call at this office, some attention will be paid to their unsigned letter. PAID N.A.A.C.P. OFFICERS has been ever since. That is one reason why his re-election to that august body came with a regularity that was most pleasing to his hosts of friends and why his re-election, next month is again practically assured. However, do not take anything for granted, but pitch in, work hard and vote for Mr. Stolte, and get all the other voters in ward 19 to do so that you possibly can. Two years ago a political "landslide," for which he was in nowise responsible, caused his and many other candidates' defeat. This fall careful, consistent and constant effort, upon the part of his host of friends and admirers in Ward 19 will unquestionably carry him thru to a victory that will be most gratifying to his hundreds of Afro-American friends in that ward and throne the city. There is no class of people in this community who need Wm. Stolte in the City Council half as much as on people do and this fact is generally recognized by the loyal and thoughtful of the race in Ward 19 particularly. Work hard for Stolte—Adv. PLATFORM of CARROLL L. SCOTT People's Republican Candidate for Councilman of the 11th Ward L. Knowing full well that the duties of a councilman are identical with those of ward-keeper or housekeeper at the community he represents, it is very necessary that he be held strictly accountable to his constituents in all matters in which the public interest is involved. 2. In short, he should be the mouthpiece of his constituents to express their needs and desires, in the Council Chamber of our city. To propose measures for their immediate relief and work against all measures that tend to injure the general welfare of his ward or community. His own volition or desires should be subordinated to the will of the people. 4. He should find means of ascertaining what the will of the people really is and do his duty to see it is done. 5. He should hold conferences with his constituents and then voice their sentiments in deeds and not words. 6. He should make personal inspection of streets, alleys, courts and all thoroughfares, and see they are sanitary and in repair. 7. Rubbish and garbage should be regularly collected. Sewer and catch-tasins kept open and side-walks repaired. 8. The councilman should represent no class, creed, party or color, not denomination, but the entire citizenship of his ward, with justice and fair dealing to all and malice toward none. 9. He should preserve the moral integrity and political prestige to all the people. 10. He should serve the people as their advisor, making their personal interests his own, thereby assuring mutual co-operation between councilman and citizen. 11. He should be a man of integrity, of respectability, of trust and vigor, fighting at all times to raise the standard of the body politic of his community. 12. I also recommend and shall propose legislation necessary to the extension of E. 36th St. to Euclid Ave. and further if necessary. Additional facilities should be added to the present bath-house now under construction as the present one is not large enough to accommodate the present population. These are, namely, swimming pool, gymnasium and evening classes for educational advancement. These recommendations I make my platform and pledge my faithful service to all, friends and foe alike, to carry them into execution. Respectfully submitted, Carroll Scott, People's Republican candidate for Councilman of the 11th ward. Atty. Jno. Anderson, Chairman Wallace Stokes, Secy.

P, which not in convention in your city, several months ago. The criticisms made by you have led many said. As to the salaries of your organization holding position in your organization you feel they are too high and others feel they are not. This much is true; under such salaries of officers, the Association is duty bound to turn out results that warrant them no salary, if honestly estimated, can be too great for work done that is commensurate with the salaries. What outstanding accomplishment of the N. A. A. C. P, can be pointed to that will in any way justify the large expenditures made? What program has the Association now that justifies the morals of such large salaries? Its propaganda against lynching is not effective. It simply publishes what the world reads, in part at least, in other papers. The publication of the horrors of lynch-murder does not seem to lessen them but rather increase them. The horrors of lynching are known, but we must not continue to pay too deeply for it! The attempt to put federal legislation to prevent or punish—lynch-murder will prove futile because the punishment for such crimes belongs to the police power to lessen them, very soon lynch-murder will abate. Second; cause Congress to enact a law that will enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, so that colored men by their votes can protect themselves. This is a practical program that can be carried out. Every colored man and woman should pay for their liberties. No price should be too dear in money or blood. With the entire race united on the ballot, results will come. I need not say entire race, but let a person pay for their nasty little way, this program and results will follow. We expect colored tories to cringe and truckle. We expect them to deceive our radicalism while they sit like clams in the face of the murder and butchery of their people. We expect tories who have sold the liberty of the race for a school or some parly position, to dissent from what we said, but insipate of their nasty little way, this program will be put over any way. The present Congress should both enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments and cut down the representation of the south in the national house of representatives and also its electoral vote. If the N. A. A. C. P, would adopt this or just as effective a program and appeal to colored people, doubtless to bring about the coffer to help about the colored people, this association is for the advance of colored people, certainly this cannot be done without advancing the race itself within. There should be an internal program that will, within the next ten years, tell the moral and educational uplift of the race. All of the troubles confronting our people do not come from the white south and are not due to lynching. During these last ten years the Association cannot point to one inside beneficial result it has brought about within the race. Certainly this Association needs education of every kind. This Association has not advanced it one whit. In the south today there is much waste of money and energy in education. Religious money by the thousands is squandered too many schools in our country. If the N. A. A. C. P, would adopt an educational secretary in the field and let him work out an intelligent basis of education and then summon the different denominations doing work in the south to meet in a conference so as to adopt the plan and make their schools more effective, both in reaching larger numbers of pupils and doing better work, which would be tremendous. If a secretary on sociological conditions were chosen and set to work he could do much to prepare the south for the colored man's home and also the north as a place for him to reach his highest development. The teacher he however knows a ship that is leaking! Those who attack the Association do so because they do not see the real good it is doing. The Association should not stop what is doing but should do more! Changes in its program should be made and must be made if it is to continue. What is the Association doing to give to the colored people efficient leadership! Does the Association desire colored men to lead in emancipating their race or does it desire color people to lynch them?

Those of us on the inside want a basis to stand upon that will justify our intelligence. Those on the outside should be converted and brought within, but this cannot be done with sneers and insinuations that the critics are jealous. That argument is too film-ies. N. A. A. C. P. give us a program and we don't care how large the salary, if it is earned. The real question now is, do the men that get the salaries that are being criticised and objected to, deserve them for the amount of good they are doing? (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd. JUDGE VIRGIL J. TERRELL A Candidate for Municipal Judge— Four Year Term. When Judge Terrell was a member of the Ohio Assembly, some years ago, and was approached in the state capitol by the editor of The Gazette and asked to help kill that vicious anti-intermarriage bill, which had already secured enough votes, and many more, to pass it in the lower house of the Assembly, he promptly volunteered not only to vote against the bill but to work aggressively to assist in its defeat, and did so! This was and is a true indication of his feeling toward our race. He is the kind of friend we must show appreciation of whenever we can, if we would retain them. As a legislator and judge, his record is clean and efficient, and he merits the support of all, especially our people, in his effort to succeed himself. The editor of The Gazette urges our voters to do their full duty in his case, on Nov. 4, election day.—Adv. SENATOR WILLIAMS FLAYED! By a Southern White Minister Because of His Indorsement of Lynch-Murder Atlanta, Ga.-At last another southern minister (white) has been moved to speak out against mob violence, particularly Lynch-murder, with the result that Senator John Sharp Williams of Mississippi has received a verbal castigation that ought to penetrate even his rhinoceros hide" and produce of good in the individual as well as beneficial to the entire South. Rev. G. B. Wilmer, rector of St. Luke's E. Church, commenting on a particular part of Williams' reply to a colleague (Borah) in a recent speech in the U. S. Senate, into which she dragged an indorsement of Lynch-murder, said, recently: "If there ever was a time in the history of the human race when only words of truth and soberness should be spoken that moment is now. If ever there was a time when we needed to know what forces are really effective to stamp out rebellion and crime, it is now! It is no time for lunatics to be abroad. One must therefore deplore the reported utterances of Senator Williams of Mississippi, to the effect that the "protection of women transcends all law, human and divine." It is within bounds to say that is as wild and incoherent a statement as ever proceeded from a mad-house. To assume that the understood orgy of revenge and passion is going to protect anybody or anything is crazy; to assume that we can protect anybody that ought to be protected by transcending divine law is blasphemous. The senator from Idaho, Mr. Borah, told the exact truth when he said that the advocacy of lynch law was sowing the wind to reap the whirlwind, that it could only end in the disintegration of the republic. Every participant in a mob and every apologist for mobs is joining hand with criminals to bring about the unchecked reign of anarchy.

CLEVELAND, OHIO, OCT. 25, 1919. All that America got out of the war was High Prices for the People and a High Honor for President Wilson. There used to be a maxim that "There is room at the top" but nowadays the labor unions would qualify the maxim by adding a proviso that on the way to the top you must pass through the labor union gate. Fortunate that Abraham Lincoln was not shut out by a railsplitters' union. Must success bear a union stamp? Beware of the "jim-crow" Negro—especially the one who urges "jim-crow" Y. M. C. A.'s, hospitals, etc. Read carefully Editor Dabney's editorial, headed "Why Don't They,?" elsewhere in this paper, and you will understand why the warning. It is only one step from segregation / in hospital and Y. M. C. A. to school segregation or "jim-crow" schools. We are sounding this warning for the especial benefit of our people in Cleveland. The "Negro" who joins the Roosevelt Memorial Association or contributes to it in any way must have "a cast-iron stomach." Col. Theodore "Brownville" Roosevelt not only "lynched The Black Battalion," all of whom were proven innocent, of the alleged crimes, by the U. S. Senate committee which officially investigated the alleged "Brownville Affray," but with Wm. Howard Taft, former Secretary of War and later President, [Picture of a man with white hair and a dark suit, facing left. The background is black.] [The caption reads: "A portrait of a man in a dark suit, facing left."] persisted in persecuting them until his death. Then, too, his shameful mistreatment and political persecution of our great and good friend, Senator Joseph Benson Foraker, (deceased), because he fought for our brave soldiers, some of whom helped to save him (Roosevelt) and his "Rough Riders" in Cuba, during the Spanish-American war, cannot and will not be forgotten, either. Says George Wharton Pepper: "One of the most instructive lessons in history is the contrast between Moses and Woodrow Wilson, and between the giving of the Law from Mount Sinai and the proclamation of the covenant from Paris. Moses was a teachable man. During the beginning of his term he omitted to the assistance of the resistance and tried to do it all himself. His father-in-law, Jethro pointed out his error. 'The thing that thou doest,' he told Moses, 'is not good. Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou and this people that is with thee; for this thing is too heavy for thee; thou are not able to perform it. thyself alone.' The wise old man then counseled Moses to 'provide out of all the people, able men' and to give them important positions. He accepted the advice and acted upon it, and he accounted of this transaction in the eighteenth chapter of Exodus is one of the most interesting in the Old Testament." The thoughtful and well-informed people in America realize that the task assumed by Mr. Wilson in going abroad was "too heavy" for him. Had he remained at Washington attending to his duties as had all the presidents before him from Washington to Taft, the world would have been the better for it. Had he "provided out of all the people able men" to be our peace representatives, the future safety of this country would have been better cared for and the welfare of the world would have been better conserved. He brought back what is called a league for peace but it is first an instrument to preserve the spoils of the late war to the conquerors. It mortgages his country to go to war whenever those spoils are attacked. Able men could at least have seen to it that the conqueror's peace was one thing and the league for peace another. THE "SHILLADY" MEETING The "Shillady" mass meeting, last Sunday, at Grays armory, this city was like the play, "Hamlet," without its principle character. John H. Shillady, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., was "ill" and did not come on from New York City to speak as promised because of "illness," it was announced, but sent his assistant, Mr. Walter White, who did his best to appease the greatly disappointed audience that filled the hall. While Assist. Sec. White's address was interesting it afforded nothing new but did aid the local branch to "ease" $501.25 from the audience in addition to a number of new memberships at one dollar per person which women members solicited. The half thousand and more dollars were sent to headquarters in N. Y. City to help pay M. B. John H. Shillady those exorbitant salaries and assist to promote the organization's indefinite "anti-lynching" propaganda which our Dr. Wm. A. Byrd, in his splendid article on page 1 of this paper, so artistically dissects. The local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. apparently took a mean advantage of the people who attended the meeting. When it knew that Shillady was not coming, the honorable thing to have done was to have let that fact be known in the community, and not in inveigle hundreds of people to the army to be so disappointed even if the money secured was wanted. There is, too, need of that money, and much more right here in Cleveland to help finance an effort to break down colorlines in theaters, hotels, restaurants and other places of public amusement, accommodation, etc., etc. It is well to remember, too, in connection with the N. A. A. C. P. anti-lynching propaganda that the U. S. Supreme Court has decided that the Congress cannot enact an anti-lynching law because that is the province of the several states, so announces the office of the U. S. Attorney-General. WHY DON'T THEY? Ex-President and Mrs. W. H. Tatt's Hotel Sinton, of Cincinnati, is still insulting our people. Ohio has a law—Civil Rights law—which forbids pust that very thing. Why don't our people of that city use it? Our good friend, Editor Dabney, of the Cincinnati (O.) Union, ought to be able to answer this question. The above article is from The Cleveland (O.) Gazette, that old and reliable paper owned and edited by our long-time friend, the Hon. Harry C. Smith. In reply, we gladly give our opinion. We are informed that Mr. Chas, P. Tatt and wife are among the leading stockholders of the Sinton, that hotel being named in honor of David Sinton, father of Mrs. Tatt. The color line is drawn there, as at all other hotels here owned by white people except "THE STERLING." WHICH IS OPEN TO ALL REPUTABLE PEOPLE REGARDLESS OF RACE. Yes, the colored citizens here know of Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law, but as you well know, the great majority of our leaders are "jim-crow" Negroes, and advocate, by word or deed, segregation. So, what can you expect from them? They fatten their purses, or selfishly seek positions, regardless of racial welfare. Among them there is little race pride, less race loyalty, and least principle. The few who are different find small oneragement in fighting, since the black man is ignorant or hood-winked by those who have influence among certain influential white people. CLEVELAND HAS, WE ARE INFORMED, SIXTY-THREE COLORED TEACHERS IN ITS "MIXED SCHOOLS," because of the fact that the colored people there fought for their rights. Here, the leaders fought for Negro schools, and, though contrary to law, the whites gladly gave them! At the present rate of increase of segregation the day will soon arrive when we will have more Negro schools and a high school; then good-bye to colored pupils in university, or any other mixed school. Then the people stand for these projects is to testimonize their ignorance as well as a tribute to the unprincipled, selfish Negroes who are playing the game, scritching their race for place, just as Judas betrayed Jesus. In manhood, in striving unselfishly for race rights, Cincinnati is a long, long way from Cleveland! Dabney. THE GAZETTE. CLEVELAND. OHIO. OCTOBER 25. 1919. E DOINGS OF THE RACE Our National Congress of Fraternities held its fourth annual sessions in Memphis, Tenn., Oct. 8, 9, and 10. Rev. H. H. Proctor, a leader in Atlanta, Ga. has accepted a call to Nazarene Cong. church, Brooklyn, N. Y. His services begin, Jan. 1, 1920. The mayor of Atlanta has expressed his regret at Dr. Proctor's resignation. Gen. Isaac R. Sherwool, a veteran of the war of the rebellion and a member of Congress from the Toledo district, who recently relied in favor of the erection of statues of Frederick Douglass and Booker T. Washington in the capitol, appeared before the House Committee on the Library of Congress, Oct. 14, and urged that it be done. Leonard Webster, (white), advertising artist, arrested in connection with the lynching of Will Brown, the burning of the courthouse and attempted lynching of Mayor Smith in the Omaha, Neb. riot of Sept. 28, confessed his complicity. When shown the gun with which he is alleged to have struck the mayor on the head, Webster cried: "That's it," then fainted in his cell. It is generally true—mobocats are cowards!

[Name] New York City — Justice Wesley O. Howard of the Third New York Judicial District, contributed an elaborate article to the New York Herald, Sunday, Sept. 7, on "The Psychology of the Clashing of the Races." It was brilliantly written. It exhibited a powerful and telling massing of historical and scientific facts. Justice Howard seems to be one white man who has removed the cataracts of blind and unreasoning composite Anglo-Saxon (American) race prejudice from his eyes, and has looked the facts squarely in the face, seeing in the Afro-American a human being who has possibilities of achievement equal to all other races or classes. His tenth is the point which will cause the proud and haughty prejudiced American to "shudder" when he calls miscegenation "a great law of nature." He says of the white girl's love for the Afro-American: As Councilman of Ward 11 for the past three years, Thomas W. Fleming has always been alert in behalf of the interests of his constituents. His service has been unselfish and he has always taken pleasure in personally investigating all complaints, listening to suggestions for betterment and act- "But she could not master it—master the laws of the Omnipotent! And who could master those laws?—inexorable! immutable! inflexible! The earthquake is a law of nature, moving regardless of man, and so is this great law of misegement. And why should man attempt to put, or wish to out his puny will against the Omnipotent, the Irresistible? Can ants dam up the flow of the Amazon, or hares push back the weight of glaciers? Then neither can the statute books of man nor the conventions of society thwart the mighty law of misegement or hinder its resistless march. We are staggered that there is such a law. But we stand staggered before floods and volcanoes and pestilence." Mr. Fleming was active in all the Liberty Loan Drives in his Ward and each time Ward 11 went over the top. He has secured a One-Hundred Thousand ($100,000) Dollar Public Bath House, now in course of construction for his Ward. More streets are being sewered and paved in Ward 11 than in any other Ward in the city. Plans are completed for making a through boulevard of Carnegie Avenue from the East to the West sides. Streets and alleys are cleaner and in better repair than ever before in the Ward. Street lighting, sanitary conditions and play-grounds are second to no Ward in the city. E. 30th Street cross-town line is nearing completion, through the efforts of Mr. Fleming. And then we are electrified as Justice Howard reads the secret of the universe. We seem not to be reading the words of a New York judge, but of a mighty philosopher and scientist. Justice Howard says: "The propensity of the races to interbreed and amalgamate grows out of some wise reason. Every impulse springs from something. There is a cause; a reason. Every desire has a root. Nature does not move at random. Every passion is planted for a purpose. Nothing goes at haphazard. On all the reaches and stretches of the universe each movement and sound denotes a law; the law of a leaf, the roar of Niagara, the chip of a leaf, the plunge of an avalanche. In all the fields and vacancies of space, in every solitude and desolation and desert, in the belly of the sea and on the peaks of mountains, there is no chance. Nature knows no chance. Chance exists only in the mind of man—a delusion. It is man's answer to the Unknowable; his reply to the Incomprehensible; his conception of the Inscrutable." That is a passage of wonderful eloquence which is almost the last word of modern science and modern philosophy. Then Justice Howard goes on to say: "Nature has interposed no barriers to the interbreeding of the races as it has to the intermixture of the animal kingdom. The black woman is as prolific, mated with the Caucasian as with the African. The Indians and the French interbreed, the Incas and the Saudians cross, the Mexicans and the Mongolians mix." And the Justice Howard says: "The laws which rule the universe are inmutable. They are no more influenced by the opposition of men than by the anger of ants; no more flexed out of shape by the prejudices of mortals than by the anties of apes. Implanted in the human frame, deep-rooted and ineradicable is the tendency to the interbreeding of the races. This impulse springs neither out of perversity or leptravity . . . is a law of a nature, lefian of the statutes of man, unconscious of the scorn of society, disgustful of the reproaches of prejurious great law of missegenation."
