A NEW RACE PUBLICATION At last a real magazine, edited by Negroes, published by a Negro company, especially for Negroes has sprung into existence almost overnight. A publishing company with headquarters in Pittsburgh, has been incorporated, having for its personal some of the most prominent men of the race and with sufficient capital aid, at them to guarantee success, for its success in issuing the most prestigious race publication ever attempted. This new venture in the publishing field, "THE COMPETITOR" will compare favorably with Hercules's, Collier's Metropolitan or any other of the better publications in both appearance and literary merit. Its staff of editors and contributors best represents many of the best known and most influential men of the race. Well known statesmen, educators, churchmen and financiers all combine to make it a publication of exceptional merit. Robert L. Vann is the editor with Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Eugene Kinele, John and Walter S. Buchanan as associate editors. On the staff of contributors appear such as Robert F. Fraser, Francisco, Va.; C. F. Askew of Raleigh, N. C.; Calvin S. Brown, principal of Waters Normal Institute; Robert D. Daughtery dramatic critic and journalist of New York: William Henry Harrison of Chicago. John R. Hawkins, Educational Secretary of the A. M. E. Church, James Weldon Johnson, J. E. Jones of the Virginia Union University, Tasker Institute, Prof. Kefi Miller, T. G. Steedt, Walter J. Singleton, Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, Judge Robert H. Terrell, Mary Church Terrell, Lester A. Waldon and Bert A. Williams. An intensive subscription campaign is to be waged to place it in every home in America, and the publishers are offering ever remunerative positions to the college alumni to net its local representatives. COURAGE! DR. ROBEKT R. MOTON On the Socalled "Race Question"—Delivers a Fine Address to Two of Our Organizations. Lamburg, Va. Nov. 16.—The American Negro is not asking for any special legislation, but the enforcement of the laws, which you have already made, and for the protection of life and property, and he will make his way up or return to the decoration made by Dr. Robert R. Moton principal of Tuskegee Institute, and president of the National Negro Business League, in addressing an audience of 2000 people. Friday night, at the City Auditorium. It was the National Organization Society and the Virginia State Teachers' Association. The Negro Organization Society was organized seven years ago by Dr. Robert R. Moton, having for his portrait, "Better Schools, Better Health, Better Homes, Better Farms." It was the 14th annual meeting of the people's work life side for the object set forth. It was fitting that Dr. Moton should deliver the closing address, and at the close, the large audience declared he was safe on the "Race Question" and was doing much for his people, his community, his work and listened attentively to the noted educator. Among other things Dr. Moton said: "I like the Negro Organization Society, because through it people have been able to talk directly and friendly to white people and through it they can say the things that are nearest their hearts to the people to the people, the killing and the execution of the law. The time has come when we are more in the south than once talking about each other and must endure horror and more to talk to each other and the time has come, so when we must be willing to listen to each other and to endure people and white people were more willing to talk and to listen to each other more dispassionately than today. "The Negro is loyal to his country and to the south as any other group in the country, and he is loyal to the southern people as any one in the south, and a large majority of them need the south and the south needs them and cannot get with it at the beginning of an era of economic development such as it has never before experienced, and it never needed the Negro more than it does today. The Negro is one of the south's greatest economic assets. Therefore, it is very important for the Negro to be the Negro himself, that every reasonable consideration should be given that part of our population. Those who make the lives, those who interpret and execute the laws, those who hold sentiment, those who believe in right and justice and fair play owe it to themselves and the nation to it that these black millions are made to imparty and contented for themselves as well as for the good of the country and that can only be done by being fair and just in dealing with the colored people—that the laws which white people make must apply with the same intentions to black and white people alike. The Negro should have the same chance to share in the blessings and privileges of democracy as is true of every other citizen." At the opening of the two conventions Tuesday evening, held jointly, Mayor Royson Lester, Dean of the University of Virginia, delivered welcome addresses which were responded to by Virginius N. Carney and Dr. A. A. Graham. The following officers were elected: Negro Organization Society—Robert R. Moton, honorary president; Maurer Allon Washington, president; L. L. Dowring, P. B. Young, Mrs. Oro B. Stokes, R. C. Young, Mrs. Mangle L. Walker, A. T. Shirley, W. E. Robinson, Wm. H. Reid, Mrs. Ida N. Pacy, Mrs. Davis, David, D. J. M. Joffre, Mrs. Jeffress, Trefor, E. A.

C., Nov. 12, 19: And here I am reminded of some words uttered by Secretary Franklin I am taking the liberty of addressing you, to express my very high appreciation of your forceful editorial in the issue of "Harvey's Weekly," of October 11th, entitled "An Old Race War Warning." It is not only timely, but I am sure it must do great good. Not only as an American citizen in country, but also as a colored American. I wish to thank you, and to beg of you to continue to throw the weight of your great influence in helping to ease the burdens that are pressing so heavily upon the colored people in this country because of race prejudice. All citizens that they may enjoy the same rights that are enjoyed by other American citizens. They do not ask to be treated differently from other citizens of the Republic. They ask no special legislation in their behalf, only that they may enjoy unlimited compartment rights that are enjoyed by other citizens of the country; they have never hesitated to make any sacrifice, however great, for the country whenever they have been called upon. No class of citizens responded more readily to the call of the Government than the German persecutors. If they did not offer the service rendered by them was谊然 given, it might be different. But such is not the case. No man in this Nation have a better right to claim eninence in that great virtue of loyalty than you have, as you have proved when you have been tried. I reckon no higher proof of loyalty was ever given by your country, but also as a colored American. I wish to thank you, and to beg of you to continue to throw the weight of your great influence in helping to ease the burdens that are pressing so heavily upon the colored people in this country because of race prejudice. All citizens that they may enjoy the same rights that are enjoyed by other American citizens. They do not ask to be treated differently from other citizens of the Republic.

No class of citizens responded more readily to the call of the Government than the German persecutors. If they did not offer the service rendered by them was谊然 given, it might be different. But such is not the case. Your courage no one questions, and, in these days when we who have to deal with large affairs of state are counting up the assets of this country and asking ourselves, and asking each other, who is there that would bear the same loyalty to the country; they have never hesitated to make any sacrifice, however great, for the country whenever they have been called upon. No class of citizens responded more readily to the call of the Government than the German persecutors. If they did not offer the service rendered by them was谊然 given, it might be different. But such is not the case. (Rev.) Francis J. Grimke. DUBOIS ON RECONSTRUCTION New York City.—Said Dr. W. E. B. Duibois, this: "This is a program of reconstruction within the Negro race in America, after the revolution of world history, to train up the problem of the colored child in the white school. At present the tendency is to accept and even demand separate schools because our children so often are neglected, mistreated and humiliated in the public schools. This is active and a wicked surrender of principle for which our descendants will say dearly. Our policy should be to form in connection with each school and district effective Parents' Associations, composed of the parents, mothers and a wicked surrender of principle; these associations should establish friendly relations with teachers and school authorities, urge parents to wash and dress their children properly, help look after truancy and powerlessness, and for the backward curb delinquency and be in fine, a vigilance committee to keep the public school open to all and fit the Negro child for it. In Religion we must, in the larger cities, stop building and purchasing churches, invest the money of the church in homes, land and business, and philanthropic enterprises for the benefit of the people. Individual home ownership in most large cities is today difficult; but a group of people who can buy and pay for a hundred thousand dollar church can purchase a hundred I. Gray, secretary of education; L. C. Baltimore, auditor. The next session will be held at Newport News. There were a number of strong addresses delivered. Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, and many helpful things and assured the people that he was fully in sympathy with them. There were many strong men who visited the meeting and had something to say. UNION SUCCESSFUL E COPY FIVE CENTS AGE!" ry F. K. Lane President Wilson's cabinet Loyal Troops in Cuba, than our Soldiers— All Asked! And here I am reminded of some words uttered by Secretary Franklin K. Lane some time ago in a speech he gave, in the name of shearing his delivery. He said: "No men in this Nation have a better right to claim eninence in that great virtue of loyalty than you have, as you have proved when you have been tried. I reckon no higher proof as you have proved than that of fathers in the days of slavery, when into their hands was entrusted the care of the property of those men who were fighting against their freedom. And no greater courage and no greater loyalty have ever been shown any of the troops of the United States in the war of the Union, you had the chance, and but a year ago carrival, in Mexico. You have the courage. Your=courage no one questions, and, in these days when we who have to deal with large affairs this country, say that we asking ourselves, and asking each other, who is there that can be counted upon; who is there that is sure; who is there whose loyalty to that flag is unquestioned, no matter what comes, we know the Negro can be counted upon; man is any reason, say that the Negro can be counted upon; the United States is not, first of all, a loyal American." Again I thank you, and pray for justice for the people of the state that justice is being founded, the colored man thousand dollar apartment house and run it. It is a simple business proposition and requires _only elementary honesty and ordinary executive ability. Churches can easily begin co-op business and ordinary executive use, using their own premises for distribution; churches in the country and small towns can buy farries and rent or run them; the church can purchase automobile trucks and help the Negro farmer market his produce through the thriving commission merchants; even simple manufacturing, sewing and building are not beyond the reasonable activities of church-bodies. In effect unless the church extends its reach to the Negro community, a simple program of building bigger and finer edifices—unless it organizes the Negro laborer so that his entire wage will not go in rent and supporting storekeepers who despise and cheat them, this helps he laborer it will lose the job. The Negro church is character-building through economic co-operation. "In business the Negro must branch out into certain new lines where he has long and foolishly hesitated. We must open dry goods and haberdashery stores, meat markets and clothing stores to sell merchandise and clothing. We must gradually but persistently get into manufacturing. The deft fingers of our young people are as easily adapted to machinery as the fingers of whites. We are denied opportunity by white trade unions and workers, offering courage among colored capitalists, business men. Let us wake up. The manufacturers in the United States is just begun. The expansion of domestic and foreign trade is going to be enormous: We raise the cotton—why not spin and weave it? We dig the iron—why not mold it. We mine the coal—why not mine it to steam and power? Do we-lack brains and capital. No, we lack experience and courage. Get them. "In Politics the colored woman is going to vote. This is our chance. Away with the old regime, the potlouse piffican and white bribery, let voters vote on government, county, state and nation, at know, the law and the officials and their duties. Let us keep continue and rigid tabs-on every candidate and party—what we want is men! What parties we want what we want is deeds. Study, learn, register and vote. Vote at every election and see that every friend of your votes. Pay your poll taxes and register. Do not vote for a party. Vote for men and measures for parties. But above all, vote! Let every Negro man and woman, always and everywhere, vote." It is a privilege to fearlessly stand for the right— Not a sacrifice, even though you go down They count not the cost, who fight the good fight, And unflinchingly face the sheer or the frown.

CLEVELAND, O., NOV. 22, 1919 The large vote Alex. H. Martin, Esq., received as a candidate for "Muny" judge, and the election of F. L. Stevens, another Davis-Maschke slate candidate for a position on that bench, only go to prove our contention that Martin, too, would have been elected if he had been supported in ALL of the wards of the city by the administration's workers as Stevens was this time and as Judge McMahon was two years ago. They "let Martin down," in the outlying wards and supported him in the wards where our voters are numerous. That explains his defeat! The number of hold-ups and robberies in ward 11, last week, "were a fright." Even in broad daylight, at the corner of E. 28th and Marion Ave., last Friday at "high noon," a member of the race was relieved of his "dough." That was the climax to a list that broke the record (since last winter) for one week. And they are just "starting in," again. This is going to be SOME winter. It is said that one of the "light-fingered gentlemen" said he was in Kansas City, Mo., when he saw in the papers the account of the re-election of Mayor Davis and immediately "beat it for Cleveland." Mrs. Mary B. Talbert of Buffalo, N.Y., president of our National Federation of Women's clubs, the woman who led the drive that saved the Hon. Frederick Douglass' beautiful home at Anacostia, D. C. after Booker T. Washington and other men had failed to do so, making it the organization's headquarters, and who but in recent months returned from an extended trip thru the war stricken parts of France, as well as visiting some of that country's largest cities, conferring with its leaders in woman's work etc., will be at Mt. Zion Cong church, next Tuesday evening, and should be heard by all. She has a wonderful story to tell of her travels abroad, as well as at home, and is one of our most eloquent speakers. Mrs. Talbert is a native or long resident of Oberlin and a graduate of the College there—a brilliant woman. Her coming will benefit our people of the community. Rev. H. M. Lowry, financial agent of the Y. M. C. U., writing The Gazette under date, Nov. 17, 19, says: "A committee of three, Dr. E. A. Bailey, C. M. Dahney and myself, spend two hours today trying to prevail upon Mr. Platt, manager of the $3,000,000 drive for the Community Welfare fund, to list the Y. M. C. U. as one of its objects for support, but to no avail. But he did consent to the proposition that all monies donated and specified for the Y. M. C. U. would be turned over to the organization. Please urge upon all contributors who are friendly to the Y. M. C. U. to donate freely and specify that their contributions are for the organization because the Negro Welfare Association can never measure up to nor do for our citizens of Cleveland what the Y.M.C.U. can and is doing for the higher education and better citizenship of our people; just what the Y. M. C. A. is doing for its people." And we heartily agree with Rev. Lowry. Be sure to specify that your donation is to go to the Y. M. C. U. Be loyal! THE FRENCH ALLIANCE President Wilson has made some sort of an arrangement that whenever France is attacked the United States is forthwith to go to war for her. Upon this Senator Hiram Johnson says: "Do you realize the full meaning of the alliance with France? In his explanation, the President has given us his first and only construction of the league. He says that an alliance now to come immediately to the assistance of France in case of unprovoked attack by Germany is 'merely hastening the actions to which we should be bound by the covenant of the League of Nations', understood by the President, the armed forces of the United States must protect France in case of attack. "By the League of Nations, then, the armed forces of the United States must protect any country, a member of the League, from attack. If under the covenant we are thus committed to France, we are in like manner committed by it to Jugo-Slavia, Czecho-Slovakia, Poland, Italy, Japan, England and the Hedjaz of Arabia. The President by his one utterance in explanation of the covenant has made clear what the document itself plainly says, but what its advocates have occasionally denied, that under Article X the United States is bound to send its troops and employ its power and treasure at the behest of every nation of earth. This is the definite obligation we assume; this is the so-called League of Nations. "It is not a League of Nations to prevent war. It is a league of nations in a gigantic war trust. In its very creation it has been stripped of every idealistic purpose it ever had. It contains within itself the germs of many wars and worse than that it rivets, as in the Shantung decision, the chains of tyranny upon millions of people and cements for all time unjust and wicked annexations. "It is a great world economic trust, wherein a few men sitting in secret may control the economic destinies of peoples. It is not a league of peoples, nor does it anywhere concern itself with peoples whose past wrongs and future rights were so eloquently portrayed by the President. It is a trust of existing present power. It will never prevent war; it will sanctify power to a new, a terrible and sinister sense." THE SOUTHERN "CRACKER," AGAIN. Recently there appeared in Harvey's Weekly, N. Y. City, a vicious editorial on the Afro-American soldiers of the 92d Div., and the A. E. F., which was evidently written by a prejudiced southern army officer intent upon labeling our soldiers as cowards when facing artillery fire. Letters on file in the War. Department, written with the same object in view by the same stripe of individual (officer) while in France, and sent as "official reports," were the basis of the miserable attack. How Col Harvey, editor of the Weekly, came to permit such an absolutely unjustifiable and lying article to appear in his paper, and too in the shape of an editorial, is beyond us. Cleveland, O., Nov. 17, 1919. Col Harvey, Editor, Harvey's Weekly. Your recent editorial, relative to the Colored soldiers in France during the World War, especially those of the 92d Division, and its very harmful general impress, published two weeks ago, moves me to send you the enclosed and to ask for another editorial in your splendid weekly which will give the TRUTH. You were misled by reports (letters, etc.) sent to the War Department by the same kind of prejudiced officers (southern whites) as tried to discredit the Colored officers and men of the 368th Inf., A. E. F. In common with nearly all of your many readers, I have thoroly enjoyed every editorial in your splendid weekly except the one referred to. It is so at variance with the facts, facts that are notorious, that I am sure that Secretary Baker's statement (enclosed herewith), relative to ALL Colored soldiers of the A. E. F., will be gladly received and prove all that is necessary for you to make the amende honorable in a characteristic editorial that will do full justice to the Afro-American soldier of the A. E. F.—among the bravest and best our great country sent into the World War. 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: The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12840. 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 fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. 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. THE GAZETTE. CLEVELAND, OHIO, NOVEMBER 22, 1919 PREDICTS OCEAN AIR ROUTES. Expert Believes Transatlantic Flight Will Soon Be Put On Paying Basis. Mail To Go Out Daily By Plane-Post At A Rate Of $1.00 Per Ounce. NEW YORK, N. Y.—Transatlantic airplane service that will pay its way was predicted as early possibility by Leon Cammen, Vice President of the Aeronautic Society of America and Associate Editor of The Journal of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Mr. Cammen was speaking at a meeting of the Aeronautic Society in the Engineering Society's Building here. Lieutenant Charles E. Sanford of the British Royal Air Force, confirm these predictions by citing the experience of the English, who now have a number of regular aerial lines between various points in the British Isles. Mr. Cammen asserted that planes and dirigibles could cross the ocean regularly soon and that there could be found goods and passengers enough to pay the high rates which would be necessary. He said that for the present mail would predominate, on the presumption that a large volume of business correspondence cannot be sent by cable. This, he said, applies to banking documents which have to transmit identifying signatures, engineering correspondence containing drawings, and documents of a technical nature generally too long and sometimes confidential to be transmitted by cable, such as patent specifications and bids on contracts. Newspapers, he also predicted, would be sent because of the speed of air delivery. The flights, he said, would probably be in relays with mother ocean vessels on the route. "An investigation recently carried out," he said, "would point to the likelihood that many thousands of letters would go out daily by plane mail, if it were available and that a rate of $1 per ounce would be by no means excessive. Now, such a rate means roughly, $5 per pound of letters carried or arried for a plane capable of carrying 400,000 $18,000-per trip, a sum attractive enough to pay for the maintenance of a rather expensive equipment. THE MEANING OF "BOLSHEVIK" Historic Movement Said To Be The Product Of Aliens, Who Wrongly Labeled It As Russian. LONDON.—A qualified critic of languages supplies the following interesting data concerning the etymology and meaning of the word Bolshevik. The word Bolshevik is a formation from the word "bolshe," the comparative of "bolshoy," which means big. "Bolshe" signifies, or is equal to, "bigger." The suffix "vik" is used with substantiates to indicate the agent, e. g., paravok is a thing that works with par, which means steam; paravok literally signifies steamer, but in Russia usually means locomotive. Bolshevik, an impossible formation from an adjective, means simply "bigger-er." Originally contrasted with menshevik (signifying littler-er), it has come to have a specialized meaning of its own. Long ago in the Socialist Democracy party were two sections, Bolsheviks and Mensheviks, the former waxed the Socialist millennium at once, and were prepared to use any and all mucus to get there; the latter sought the same ends step by step—they were the Fabians of the party. But recently Bolshevik has gained a simple meaning. "I am bigger than you—hand over!" is now the full significance of the Bolshevik's political creed. Bolshevism is, of course, a double formation—the Greek termination is tacked on the impossible bolshevik, and equivalent to the un-English word "bigger-er-ism." The words Bolshev and Bolshevism alone, to a qualified critic of languages, afford sufficient proof that the movement so labeled are not Russian or growth. They are alien to the products of the alien. Russian is a language as flexible as Greek and with a rather vocabulary. But Russians, of all the nationalities affected, have had least to do with the rise and growth of Bolshevism of our day on Russian territory. FINGER-PRINT EXPERTS FOILED NEW YORK, N. Y.-Ley Johnson is a colored gentleman who recently was sentenced in the men's night court of New York to a three-month term in the workhouse. As a precaution and guide in the event of further falls from grace, the magistrate ordered the prisoner finger-printered. Accordingly Louis Oothley one of the experts in the daetylographic science, took Johnson in charge. "Hold out your hand," the expert commanded. "Ain't got none, boss," was Mr. Johnson's rejoinder. Examination showed that he spoke the truth. Mr. Gottlieb was about to suggest taking the man's toe prints instead when he thought of looking downward first. It was then that he realized that he was up against a case where the finger-print system of identification was a failure, for only the stumps of two wooden legs showed beneath the ends of the prisoner's trousers. FREAK EAR OF CORN MACON, Ca.-S. L. Fleetwood, of South Macon, is exhibiting an ear of corn with grains in the shape of beans, butterbeans and okra. The corn was raised in a garden with such vegetables. Bad, Very Bad "Negroes." Flint, Mich. — Charles Hamady, (white), grocer, thirty-three years old, is dead and twenty-five Negroes from the South have been arrested as a result of an attempted robbery of Hamady's store here, Saturday. The grocer bombarded the would-be robber by grenaded goods after they had taken $300 from the register. The Negroes stabbed and killed him, and escaped. THE 'GLITTERING CRAZE' England's New Plutocrats Pay Enormous Prices For Paintings and Jewels. Peace Has Brought An Orgy Of Spending Which Nothing Can Check LONDON.—Thousands of persons who have accumulated millions during the war and since, are buying at any price furniture from some of the ancient houses of the country, jewels from some of the looted palaces of Russia, and other continental countries, and paintings from anywhere if they bear the mark of time. There is no lack of jewels for those who have the price and are willing to pay. Many beautiful pieces of jewelry, the history of which is not given by the dealer, but which experts say could come only from the wealthiest families of Russia, are lending their way into the market. Enormous prices are being asked. Flowers and food for elaborate entertainments which are beginning to mark the appearance of the newly rich, are commanding fancy prices such as $25 for an orchid and $1.50 for a peach. Automobiles are scarce and expensive in Britain. Some of them command as much as $10,000 to $15,000, and they are models of three and four years ago, while new machines almost are unobtainable. The maker of the most famous English car turns out only about 800 each year, and it is said he already has booked his entire output for this year and next. This extravagance is attracting wide attention from newspapers and public men. "Pease has brought an orgy of spending," says one writer, "which high prices do nothing to check. The higher the price the easier it is for those who have money to draw the big lines of remarkation between themselves and the crowd." ELOPERS WED AT LAST Edward Herbert and May Armour Are Married In Maryland... ELKTON, Md.-Dan Cupid beat the police of Atlantic City, Philadelphia, Wilmington and Elkton, when Edward Herbert, 35 years old, engaged in business in Philadelphia, eloped to Elkton and married Miss May Arbour, 30 years old, of Atlantic City. The runaways' first sad experience on their way to the albar came, when they were detained in City Hall, Philadelphia, until the arrival of Miss Armour's mother. On her arrival, it is alleged, Mrs. Armour stated that Herbert would never marry her daughter, and that unpleasant things would happen to him if he ever came to Atlantic City again. Not to be outwitted, Herbert went to the shore, and after dark had a friend get Miss Armour to meet him. Her parents, keeping close watch, had even locked up her clothes, but the girl managed to grab a coat and her best hat and started on the journey. The couple landed in Philadelphia at 3 o'clock in the morning and lost no time in getting to Wilmington. Finding the strict law of Delaware, a barrier to quick marriages, they were advised to trot along to Elkton. They reached Elkton about 8 o'clock that evening, procured a license and were married. Herbert, who had been married twice before, stated before leaving town that the parents of his bride objected to him as a son-in-law, because he has a wife living. This he denied, saying both former wives are dead. In order to outwit the police, who were hunting for them, Herbert disgnised his bride by removing the flowers from her hat, and her glasses, by which the detectives recognized her on her former attempt at marriage. BOOKIE HAD BRANCH AT POLICE HEADQUART POLICE HEADQUARTERS An order prohibiting loitering in the corridors at New York police headquarters revealed the fact that this action was inspired to a great extent by the discovery that an enterter in the poolroom man was employing the headpooler bootbuck. Coney Spinia—also known as "Sixes," from the fact that he had six fingers on one hand—to act as his agent in taking bets from detectives, reporters, and other men frequenting the building. For this offense the headquarters bootbucking privilege—estimated to be worth two hundred dollars a month—has been taken away from Spinia. BAN ON SEPTMEBER MORN ALTOONA, Pa.-No longer will numerous exhibitions of "September Morn" annoys passengers who travel via Pennsylvania Railroad through the western part of Pennsylvania. It had become the practice for young men and boys to bathe near railroad bridges without proper attire and the patrons had to complain. Railroad officers and State constabulary have been ordered to arrest those improperly dressed. WHITE BIRTHS BELOW PAR LOS ANGELES, Cal.-One-third of all the babies born in Los Angeles County, outside of incorporated cities, are Japanese according to a report filed by Dr. J.

Terrorized Coal Regions. Detective, Who Ran Down The Organization's Criminal Leaders, Died Recently. PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—Forty years ago a secret organization terrorized the coal regions of Pennsylvania, Superintendents and unpopular gang bosses of the mines were killed with impunity, sometimes even being clubbed to death in broad daylight in the presence of their families. The society, though widespread, was closely knit together, and its members were intensely loyal to one another. Several held town or State offices, and were able for a long time to prevent the authorities from apprehending the guilty. This organization was known as the Molly Magniques. It had a delegate in each county of the State, and as assistants to him several "body masters," who were responsible for smaller districts. The body master was usually chosen to notify nine superintendents which men they should employ, et cetera. If the superintendent failed to carry out orders promptly he was sent a final warning: "Notice you have carried this as far as you can by cheating the men you be careful of the above if dont you will be shot from a stranger who nowes you." The message was emphasized by drawings about it of a coffin and pistols. Finally, in 1873, a well-known detective agency was employed to run down the outlaw organization. One of the company's operatives, James McParland, who died recently, was sent to discover the leaders and get evidence against them. So one day the detective quietly dropped into the saloon of Pat Dormer, in Pottsville, Pennsylvania, and began his task of ferreting out the gangsters by fighting and beating a man there whom he discovered cheating at cards. This exploit gained McParland immediate popularity, which soon grew to such an extent that he was taken into the confidence of Pat Dormer, the saloon keeper, and through him was admitted to membership in the Molly Magniques. He was made secretary of the local branch of the organization in Shenandoah, and became intimate with several of its prominent officers, including Jack Kehoe and "Yellow Jack" Donahue, who were afterwards hung on McParland's testimony. The leaders of the gang after a time became suspicious of McParland, who always failed to kill the victims assigned to him. Several attempts were made to murder him, but he was so popular with the rank and title of the Molly Maguires that he was always warned in time to prevent the successful carrying out of the plot. In 1876 McParland had a complete case against the ringleaders and advised his chief to act. Wholesale arrests followed. Twelve of the Molly Maguires were found guilty of murder in the first degree, sixteen of conspiracy to murder, and several others of less serious crimes. The organization was completely broken up and the reign of terror ended. UNEXPECTED RESULTS Automobile Thieves' Guilty Conscience Brought Surprise To A Policeman. NEW YORK—The other day, a handsome automobile approached a corner at which a traffic policeman was stationed. There was no immediately evident reason why the car should be stopped. It was being driven at leisurely pace, and its occupants were two well-dressed young men orderly and seemingly law-abiding citizens. Nevertheless the officer stood in the path of the oncoming machine and signaled to halt. Then the surprise came. Not only did the car come to a stop, but the two men in it jumped out and took to their heels, quickly losing themselves in the crowd that thronged the sidewalk. Investigation of the number of the car showed that it had been reported stolen. The thieves alarmed at being held up by the policeman, had decided to desert their booty and seek their own safety. The really funny thing about the episode was that the officer had no idea of arresting them. He did not even regard them as suspicious characters, then in order to ask them to display vertising the Salvation Army drive on the windshield of the car. It was purely unconscious detective work.

Republican "landslides," two years go and last week, were what re-elected Mayer Harry L. Davis of this city. The people of this community are certainly entitled to the sympathy of all.

The police pension fund was enriched by $70.10, Monday, as a result of action taken by Police Judge Sawicki, in the trial of nine "Negroes" on gambling charges. The men were arrested in a raid on a house, Saturday night, and the money was scooped up from a card table by the raiders. In court Sawicki gave each of the card players a suspended fine of $10 and costs and ordered the confiscated money turned over to the pension fund. The "boys" say there were over $80 in that pile and a couple of hundred more on the table in plain sight of the price. How about it?

Thompson, baritone soloist, was splendidly received, especially in "Two Grenadiers." Mrs. Wade, reader, delighted the audience and responded to several encores. A record crowd saw the Oberlin-Case football game, last Saturday afternoon, at Van Horn field, this city. It could more correctly be called the Taylor-Case game, for the Oberlin Afro-American player was almost a "team" in himself. His most brilliant of a number of "stunts" was his fake punt kick followed by his circle of Case's left end for a brilliant 65-yard run to a touch-down. This was in the first quarter. His high dive over Case's line in the second quarter, his 25-yard run around Case's right end on a fake punt, reaching midfield, and his run thru a hole off Case's right end with a set of arrows to the second Oberlin touchdown in the third quarter were but climaxes of the wonderful work he did. Several of his many local admirers dined him. Saturday evening, at the Royal Inn where the editor of The Gazette had the pleasure of meeting the modest, unassuming young athlete.

The local republican organization, after promising to do so, again failed to support Attorney Alexander H. Martin in some of the south, west and cast-end wards. That is the principal reason why he was not elected a municipal judge last week Tuesday. He was two years more noticeable, it is true, than that of last week, but the effect was the same in each instance. Maurice THE GAZETTE, CLEYELAND, OHIO, NOVEMBER 22, 1919. Maschke, the local Republican boss, in conversation with the editor of The Gazette, several years ago, intimated that there was too much prejudice to appoint an Afro-American to a clerkship in the City Hall. Possibly, that explains the Maschke-Davis organization's failure to properly support Alexander H. Martin and elect him a judge of the municipal court, which is located in the City Hall, instead of Judge McMahon, two years ago, and Judge-elect Stevens, last week Tuesday. If our voters of this community were a little different from those elsewhere in this country they would not be expected to such political mistreatment. But a people who will not resent the mayor's insulting mistreatment (broken engagements, etc.) can hardly be expected to perform such a duty to themselves and their race now. Prejudice does not estop the Maschke-Davis "outfit" from appointing and electing Jewish representatives to offices of all kinds, even "cabinet" positions, and should not. "Boss" Maschke, a Jew, very properly sees to this and should do the same in our case. The fact that he will not, makes it all the more necessary that our voters rise to the occasion" and not such a duty as the Mayor Davis have repeatedly visited upon the Afro-Americans of this city during the past four years.

He was asked to direct an "impartial" investigation and also to bring about the apprehension of the "white murderers who burned alive Jordon Jamison, a member of the race, in a public square."

In addition to this about forty others have been sen- tenced to serve long terms in the pen- itentiary. This nation should demand ‘4 stay of sentence in all of these “con- vietions” until an impartial and just tribunal passes upon the gvhole mat- ter from beginning to ti "i. The court that sertenced “Mee colored men was composed of \ murderers that began the riot. F om informa tion of a reliable character it has been established that the Flaine riot grew out of an attempt of southern white planters to take the farm products of Colored men and sell them at the highest market prices—the white men to give the colored men whatever they chose. Colored men banded together to protect themselves. But this or- ganizing was made a pretext by white assassins to form a mob and butcher them! When the blacks held their own, U. S. soldiers were pressed into service to cow and disarm them while white villians went armed and ‘Killed them as fast as they were dis- armed. Now this Arkansas court, Sepa of the bloodiest assassins of the world, finished the work left undone by the mob. Not a white brute has been tried, nor has there been a warrant sworn out for the mob that is known to all. Arkansas is worse than Turkey of past years! If this bloody carnage of muman beings is allowed to go through, it means Negroes in Arkansas are doomed to ed death, peonage and pogroms that the world will shudder at. Civy- flized America should protest! There must be some way to save our courts from the infamy of southern outlaws. Every judge and court officer connee- ted with that Elaine travesty, should imprisoned and their infamous de- ree set aside.

In order to enter the Scientific Police School a man must have stud- ied law for at least two years. Many of the candidates are graduates of universities who have specialized in sociology, criminal law, and kindred subjects. The detective course com- prises four month's instruction an daetyloscopy, or fnger-print reading, record keening, penal lan, the pay: chology of criminals, thelr motives and methods, and cross-examination. | In the school building are located the criminal sles for the entire coun try, $9 that the studen:s have ample material on which to work in pursue ing their course. This makes the work of the school extremely parce tical. “Phe Snger-print. bilteay was ‘organized on its present basis in 1908, and, under normal conditions, has’ additions of fifteen hundred monthly, A feature of the Italian finger-print records 4s the inclusion, whenever possible, of the impressions ‘of Italian subjects arrested for eritnes in foreign lands, ‘TRAPPED BY HIS ; TYPEWRITING Soe eee ae CHICAGO, Til—Two Chicago de- tectives had theit suspicions aroused when they saw a man entering « resort on State Street, carrying a typewriter under his arm. These sus: Dicions were rendered more acnie When the man attempted to sell the machine They therefore placed him under arrest, and questioned him as te where he had obtained the typewriter. He claimed to have brought it with him from Pittsburg. In order to test his ability to operate the mache one of the detectives asked him to write the well-known practice sen- tence which most students of the typewriter use when learning: “Now 1s the time for all good men to come to the aid of their party.” After several minutes of painstak- ing efor the man with the type- writer made such a sorry botch of the sentence that his unfamiliarity with the art of typing was demon- strated to the lieutenant’s entire satis- faction and he was locked up. ROUMANIENS CHANGE COSTUMES BUCHAREST.—For the first time since Roumania, as the ancient provinee of Dacia, adopted the short white skirt of the Roman legionaries as her especial costume, the men of Roumania have changed their style of weuring apparel ‘The encient costume since the time of the Romans has been a short white utnic, suppleniented with tick white wool “bog trousers" and. 4 heavy padded coat whose tines of fich embroidery exactly follow the lines of the old Roman body armor Hospital garments of all kinds, bath-robes, pajatias, hospital jackets, fe being worn by’ the men inthe villages in place of their historic national costume. A gray woolen hospital bath-robe may not be as picttiresque as an embroidered tunic, but, judging by the pleased look on the face of the peasants, as they leave the American Red Cross distributing station, the sthstitute garment is giv. ing perfect satisfaction. REPUBLIC OF FRANCE PARIS, France—The French were not able to permanently establish a fepublic until they had tried three times to do so. ‘The anarchy of the French revolution produced Napoteon Bonaparte, as first consul, and then a3 emperor. The revolution of 1848 resulted in Napoleon {11 as. hered- itary emperor of the French by an almost unanimous vote in November, 152. The third republic was a result of the Franco-Prussian wat and the king of Prussia was proclaimed em- peror of the Germans, September 4 1870, and his coronation took place at Versailles January 18, 1871. The third French republie was saved from destruction by the ability and activity of Louis Adolphe Thiers. Like Cavour he carried his country. sufely Uirough a great crisis.
