As usual Georgia leads the list of states with 21 lynchings, Mississippi follows with 12, and Alabama and Louisiana are third and fourth in the list with eight lynch-murders, respectively. Of the persons lynched in 1919, four were white Americans, two were Mexicans and 72 were Afro-Americans. Shooting to death claimed 27 victims, hanging and burning at stake 13. None were convicted in any court of law. Nine of the victims were ex-soldiers of the U. S. Army. In the list of alleged causes of lynching, murder in given in 27 cases, assault in 14 cases, shooting of a white man in 7 cases, in less than one-fifth of the lynchings of 1919 was assault upon women even alleged as a justification. The list of alleged causes of lynchings is as follows: Members of Non-Partisan League. 1 Insulting white woman 1 Alteration with white man 1 Attempting to pull white woman from horse 1 Trouble between white and colored cotton mill workers 1 Assault on white woman 14 Murder 27 Insulting white man 1 Shooting white man 7 Attempted assault on white woman 5 Result of race riot 1 Talking of Chicago riot 1 Not turning out of road for white boy in auto 1 Leader among Afro-Americans 1 Circulating incendiary literature 1 Misleading mob 1 Beautiful remarks re killing of sherif 1 Intimacy with white woman 4 Found under bed in white man's house 1 Expressing himself too freely re lynching of Afro-American Causes unknown 8 Beating and robbing white man 1 lowing an operation.

L., Jan. 6, 2010 Editor Gazette, Dear Sir: The issue of southern disfranchisement is at last, becoming one of foremost consideration and should continue to have the serious thought of. Republican party leaders until the question is acted upon. It should be brought forward in the coming campaign, and the Moses revolution will bring to the forefront a great discussion in the Senate, offering opportunity to get much information on the subject in the Congressional Record. In this connection we must not forcereason to the Senate, Hon. Joseph C. Manning, more than to any other person or influence or activity, for effective and well directed service in keeping this issue before the country. It has been his persistence, his knowledge of the issue involved, with his ability in handling the matter. Hon. Joseph C. Manning that has gone far in getting this question the consideration it deserves at Washington and elsewhere. It is important to write Senators urging action upon the resolution introduced by Senator Moses, providing for an investigation of the southern political condition, and it is none the less important to encourage the work that Mr. Manning is engaged in as the leader of this movement for free government in the South. I feel interested as Chairman of the Republican City Committee of Providence in Mr. Manning's work. I have also invited Mr. Manning to speak in Providence, and I have spoken with him in New York. As a Republican and citizen, I have taken pleasure in writing letters, sending literature, etc., to advance this important cause. Interchurch World Movement New York City—Two large national denominations of our people, comprising a membership of nearly 4,000,000—approximately 80 per cent of all our Christians in this country—have taken steps to co-operate with the Interchurch World Movement in the mammoth financial drive of next spring. These students, the Baptist Convention and the A. M. F. Zion Church, have set out to raise $11,000,000 during the drive and machinery has been set up to carry on the campaign with the Interchurch World Movement. Our baptists who are to raise $10,000,000, have appointed a campaign commission, which has opened up headquarters in Chicago, with brunch offices in Philadelphia and Atlanta. Mustache Hustler and brother are members of the West "Y" not the West Side Neighborhood club. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS Secretary of Defunct Capital Savings Bank Slacker in Fights for the Race Opponent of Racial Agitation Except When His Confirmation Comes Up By Neval H. Thomas Washington, D.C.-By great odds, Judge, or better, Justice of the Peace Robert H. Terrell is the greatest bur- oon the sacred people who are fight- ing for justice. During the twenty-four years I have been here I have never known him to take up a single one of our fights, and I have asked the old residents who have lived here much longer to find that not one of them is able to recall a single act of race service. It is the widespread feeling here that this man who has been a chronic office- seeker, lining up with any man or party that had power, and flaunting his life before the unknowing, ought to be true light. I shall give your readers a few of the many flaws in his career. Mr. Terrell was the secretary of the Capital Savings Bank when it closed its doors with $50 on deposit out of over $100,000 that had been entrusted to the institution by washer- women and other poor laborers who were filled with race pride. After the doors were closed, and the poor exploited, he took the cashier in his own office where he remained until the city some months afterward. WHERE he worked, he ruptured, leaving the poor unpaid, and now we have as our sole representative in official life a bankrupt sitting in judgement in a little justice-of- the-peace forcement other people to pay their petty debts. This is what Woodrow Wilson has given us as our sole executive recognition. He meets Mr. Wilson's ideal of a Negro. He gives no trouble about rights! the Judge's Record. He is on record as being opposed to an incarment on any years he calls on people for help, as there is ledged one complaint or another against his confirmation by colored people. He dodged the seven months' fight I had in congress last year on the school bill when I sought a half million dollars for colored schools. I wrote him, that he believed in agitation every time his confirmation came up, and that if agitation was good for confirmation it was good for education goes without saying that I received no response to the recent fight I had with the Supreme Court in opposition to the insulting discrimination practiced there in the lunch room which would ultimately have vitiated the Court to which we must all repair for justice, he refused to take any part whatever; yet, being at the Court, he was brought into more intimate contact with the discrimination than any of us laymen. I appealed to him as a judge and as dean of the Negro bar, but he not only refused to be beaten the Court to its knees on the issue he criticised me for my aggressiveness. The Court praised him for his attitude. Whenever an issue comes up this man finds out what the great exodus from the South can, and our oppressed brothers were fleeing from a worse plague than those that drove the children of Israel from Egypt, the wicked white South was busy with the department of justice and congress, in search of justice in bondage. Mr. Terrell opposed their coming North. When the colored press and the colored people were asking that Negro representatives be sent to the Peace Conference (?) to tell the foreign representatives that we were suffering the cruelest autocracy in the world in spite of Woodrow Wilson's bombast on democracy, this same man opposed the movement, making himself very strong with the southern element here. When the draft was on and the local authorities made us furnish 43 per cent of the soldiers when we are sent to war, we were not but 2 per cent of representation on the draft boards, this serviceable judge was on hand to raise more troops. As we raised more troops the Commissioners gave us more discrimination and took more of our schools funds from us; yet he "opened not his mouth." Sanctioned Segregatica He even sanctioned separate recreational centers for colored and white troops, with those of the colored immensely inferior, in spite of the fact that the blood of white and black alike was flowing in one crimson stream in distant France. Only agreeable Negroes are allowed to speak to the Negro soldiers at the center of which he is head. None of us radicals who are constantly telling the Negroes that they are afraid of doing and that, it is high time he was getting some of the living are ever invited to this center to talk democracy. When Woodrow Wilson returned from Paris after WE IS STRENGTH LINE! RT H. TERRELL LIABILITY! Capital Savings Bank— acts for the Race— Racial Agitation in His Confir- Comes Up framing that war-breeding pact which he calls a "peace treaty," it was this same Terrell that was the first to greet him and shake his hand. The local authorities, ever grateful to this type of Negro, and constantly impressing upon the test of us that only such Negroes can expect honors and office, appointed him on the reception committee. Think of it here: a president who was a presenter, refused to appoint Negroes to office, or to give us any relief from our numberless woes; and a Negro who wants to be called a leader, as representative of the colored people, accepting such appointments and feeling honored at being the first to shake this president's hand. Five years ago Senator Borah joined hands with his friend Vardaman in advocating the repeal of the Fifteenth Amendment, and Terrell afterwards presided at a complimentary meeting for him at Howard theatre. Borah knew that he had nothing to take back, so I fired questions from the floor, forcing him to take is seat, since I knew that Terrell would never let me speak after him. Terrell was very angry because I broke up the "pink tea." U. S. Senator Knox's Color-Line Only this summer we received another reward, for our patriotism in Judge Robert H. Terrell the World War—the total exclusion of colored people from the public restaurant in the Library of Congress and the segregation of colored employees in the employees' lunch room. Mr. Cobb and I took up this matter with the library committees of the Senate and House committees, overseeing the Brandgee and Representative Gould as chairmen, respectively. Hiram Johnson and Senator Knox are on the senate committee, and although they are candidates for the presidency they are dodging the issue. We called upon Terrell, but, as always, got no help. I importanted Senator Knox to withdraw the order excluding colored people from the Senate restaurant where they have been going for fifty years, most upon dying so gloriously and forget about asking, for the rewards of their dying he reuses; yet, it would not even require legislation. That is needed is that he, as chairman of the rules committee of the senate, having complete charge, send word to the caterer that this new discrimination is at an end. Mr. Grimke took up the matter with him as he has taken up every case, and those he has discovered for himself, but he (Knox) still refuses. I appealed to our judge, but it is the same old story; no help. Of course, no one here expects judge Torrell to take up the great question of capital and labor, the sinister influence of the big interests over church and state, over the press and seats of learning, the economic, political and social well-being of our people. He does know, however, that lynching, "jim-crowism," and rape are wrong; so he ought to take these up at any rate. The masses are awaking. Editor Randolph of the Messenger "flooded" him before a large crowd here, last week, amid a storm of applause. In proportion as we awake the old politicians, who think that a few jobs discharge the debt of the nation to the Negro, must step aside.

Blackstone Building, Cleveland, O. Member Ohio Legislature; 1894 to 1896; 1896 to 1998; 1900 to 1902 THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. 10,000,000 Afro-Americans. 300,000 in Ohio. 25,000 in Cleveland. SATURDAY, JANUARY 10, 1920. If the notorious Beaty bill is re-introduced in the Ohio Legislature it ought in the doubtless will be killed far more promptly than it was before. We denot, however, expect the Hon. A. Lee Beaty to be taken advantage of a second time by Ohio "junkers." President Thomas Woodrow Wilson could compromise with Lloyd-George, with the Mikado, with the Russian Bolshevists, with Curranza, with the striking coal miners, with Mooney, with alien trouble makers, with draft-slackers—with anybody and everybody except the members (Americans) of the U. S. Senate who stand for America first. "Stop the waste," shouts a Democriteic editor out on the Pacific coast, and he points particularly to the waste perpetrated by the publicity bureaus of the various Departments under the control of President Wilson. But our Democriteic friend shouts at the wrong time. All through the campaign of 1916 we were telling you of the waste in general and this kind of waste in particular. Then you were defending the wasters and calling for the retention of Wilson in the White House because "he kept us out of war." But we will stop the waste in 1920, and do it over Democriteic opposition. --- Since the death of the Hon. Fredrick Doughlass and the Hon. John M. Langton there have been just two members of the race at the nation's capital who have had the intelligence, loyalty and manly courage to speak out for the race regardless of personal interests—Rev. J. M. Townsend (deceased) and The Gazette's Washington, D. C. representative, Prof Neval H. Thomas of the Dunbar High School, that city. The latter's work for the race and his letters to the associate justices of the supreme court of the District of Columbia and to U.S. Attorney General Palmer, published in recent issues of this paper, speak louder and better for Prof Thomas than we possibly can. He is a MAN! A race leader of the right sort; one who so far overshadows those score or more of pseudo "leaders" at the nation's capital as to make them look like pigmies. DANIELS' ACTION MONSTROUS Manifestly, Secretary Daniels had little consideration for the feelings of naval officers. In re-convening the board of awards he said, concerning the awards he had previously announced, "No official approval of any list has been made. All lists published were tentative. Last week I ordered changes made in the list as printed." What a monstrous thing—to print a tentative list of awards of honors, with the possibility of revising the list and humiliating the men who lost their rank in the list! TF Daniels were a judge, we presume he would hand down tentative decrees and then await public discussion before he revised the decree. And litigants would be left in doubt as to the period during which a decree ceased to be tentative and became permanent. If the government is to adopt his policy of giving a distinguished service medal to the officers of a ship that has been cunk, it should also adopt the policy of giving a distinguished service medal to the army officers whose troops are captured by the enemy. Then, with the standard of rewards established by the government, private interests may adopt the same principle, with the result that promotion will go to the bank cashier who becomes the victim of a hold-up, and increase of salary will go to the messenger who loses the largest bundle of bonds entrusted to his care, and the manager of a business concern that is surpassed by its competitor will become the captain of industry. This is a funny old world, isn't it? PALMER INDICTS HIS PARTY And yet again is the Democratic party indicted by one of its own high members. Says U. S. Attorney General Palmer, "The prompt extension of suffrage to women is a matter of vital importance to the immediate and future welfare of this country." It it is true that the adoption of equal suffrage is of "vital importance," then the Democratic party is responsible for vitally injuring the country. Republican votes were chiefly responsible for submitting the suffrage amendment, and out of 22 states that have ratified the amendment, 18 are Republican. Taking Mr. Palmer at his word, one may ask him if he intends to assist in retaining in power a party that refuses to do what is vitally important for the present and future welfare of the country. Furthermore, there is the disfranchisement of more than a million colored and white voters by southern democratic state governments, contrary to and in defiance of the U. S. Constitution. What is the U. S. Attorney General's office doing to see that that flagrant disregard of the fundamental law of the land is stopped? It certainly is of equal if not of greater importance to the country than the matter of woman suffrage. Indeed, there can be no "equal suffrage" with that southern blot upon the escutcheon of this country. The Moses resolution, to investigate this disgraceful condition of franchise affairs in the South, should be promptly adopted by the Congress, as suggester by Col. Bowen in his letter elsewhere in this paper. A CRACKER'S "YOUSE"! Boarding a Scovill Ave. car, Tuesday morning, the editor of The Gazette sat down between three southern "crackers"—two on one side of him. All three females were poorly dressed and homely, of course, as well as anything but intelligent. They drew away from him, especially the two who sat at his left, and in as spectacular a manner as possible so as to attract all the attention they could. Finding that no one (apparently) noticed them, especially the editor of The Gazette, they began to giggle to attract attention. No one giving them the "consolation" sought, they finally subsided. The other passengers either did not notice them, or they were what they looked to be—a higher order of that class ("whites")—except two hard-working members of the race who sat directly opposite us and whose countenances were sphinx-like throught it all. When the car reached the center of the square, the conductor announced twice that that was as far as the car went. The "cracker" at our right, who had made the distance between us as great as she could but who had not made quite as much of a "spectacle" 'of herself as the other two, jumped up excitedly and called to the conductor: "Don't youse go any further." Enough "sed." These are the "characters" that cause most of the friction between the two races in the North, these days. ATTORNEY W. JUSTIN CARTER Appointed Private Secretary to the Lieutenant, Governor of Pennsylvania. Harrisburg, Pa.—W. Justin Carter, Esq., of this city, has just been appointed as private secretary to Lieut. Gov. Biedleman, in recognition of his services in the political successes of Mr. Biedleman, who was formerly a state senator. Mr. Carter is rated as one of our best lawyers. His most recent victory being a verdict of not guilty for a young woman (white) accused of killing her infant child. That Battleship Money Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—Please publish the following; I was at a political meeting when Prof. Stracona Williams said: "It takes money to start a daily paper and I have got money." I gave a half dollar to the collection at Shiloh Paptist church for a battleship to be named the "Booker T. Washington." I would have contributed fifty dollars for the same purpose as I am a graduate of Tuskegee. I would ask that Prof. Stracona Williams please use the money for what it was intended or return it to the editor of The Gazette so I can get it. A Subscriber. OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of Hon. Henry G. 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 the proprietor, owner, manager 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. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than fifty dollars, and a 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 expect and do for them should they expect and do for themselves, under it, in the courts. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, JANUARY 10, 1920 MAKE MAPS FROM AIR Airplanes to Be Used to Chart Amazon Area. French Experts Plan to Survey Route of River From Flying Machines. Para, Brazil.—Airplanes may be employed to map the valley of the great Amazon river. If the French are successful in their effort to use aircraft for surveying the routes of the rivers of French Guiana, it is understood the Brazilian government will apply the same method to the survey of the Amazon and its affluents. A French company is said to have been formed in Cayenne, with hangars on the Maroni river, and French aviators with flying experience gained in the war are being employed to run the 25 hydro-airplanes said to have been furnished by the government. In addition to making maps, the machines will be employed for carrying valuable freight, mails and passengers. There are immense rivers in French Gulana, which, because of the presence of many rapids, are now only navigable in canoes, which take weeks to transport freight over distances which the hydro-airplanes can cover in as many hours, with always large stretches of smooth water offering a suitable surface for landing and "take-offs." The freight charges are said to be high, and the traffic is expected to consist mainly of gold, balata and essence of rosewood, which are the principal exports of the colony. The passenger business is not expected to be heavy. These hydro-airplanes wilt also be used for prospecting the forests for balata trees, which grow in groups, so that the foliage can, it is said, be readily distinguished by aviators flying low over the tops of the forest trees. In the past the securing of fresh sources of balato has been a work of much danger and difficulty. Specially trained balato workers, well armed, traveling in bands of 15 or 20, have been employed to explore the forests, and they had to carry with them supplies to cover many months. STUDENT COSTS $641.60 YEAR Tuition Expense to Princeton University, for Which He Pays But $174. Princeton, N. J.-President John Greer Hilbent of Princeton university authorized the following statement: At the request of the university authorities, Treasurer H. G. Duffield of Princeton has just completed a study of the actual cost to the university of educating a student. The figures show that for the years 1912 to 1917 it cost an average of $641.00 annually to educate an undergraduate. Toward this the student paid an average of $174 in tuition fees. Thus, a student who attended Princeton received, in effect, an actual gift from the university each year of services and work involving an outlay on the part of the university over and above the amount the student paid of $407.60. The statement asserts: *no increase in tuition fees is contemplated.* FRENCH HELD IN PRISONS Captive Returned From Germany Tells of Being in Solitary Confinement in Fort. Dijon, France.—Germany still retains French prisoners of war in close confinement. It is claimed by Louis Poucher, a French volunteer, who was taken prisoner in 1918, and returned to his home here recently. He declared that he, with two comrades, was tried before a court-martial for attempting to escape, and was sentenced to ten years' imprisonment in a fortress. He was taken to Danzig, and the others were sent to Koenigsberg. The French mission from Berlin which visited the Danzig fortress discovered, according to Boucher, several prisoners in solitary confinement, and had them released. Boucher was among them. French war office records had carried the word "disappeared" against his name. AH! BOLSHEVIK PLOT IN JAVA Chinese Are Accused of Using Trade Boycott to Advance Radicalism. The Hague—The Dutch East Indian government has revealed what is alleged to have been an extraordinary bolshevik plot in Java and other Dutch East Indian colonies under the guise of an anti-Japanese boycott. Chinese bolshevik, it is stated, launched the campaign, advising the East Indian Chinese not to trade with the Japanese merchants nor to deposit their funds in a Japanese bank. Agitation was conducted advocating the patronizing of certain financial institutions conducted by Chinese. These latter, according to The Netherlands government agents, were found to be bolshevik sympathizers who had planned to use the funds thus secured to carry on bolshevik propaganda in the far East. A press telegram from Makassar, Java, announced that the boycott had been ended. PROTEST AGAINST WRONG. To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on Protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare, must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many. —Ella Wheeler Wilcox. GAVE A BOOK; GOT A HUSBAND New York Girl Evidently Was As Sweet as Poetry Volume She Donated. New York—When the "Books for Soldiers" campaign was at its height early last year, Miss Hazel Bell Gillbert of Sheepshead Bay, a daughter of Detective Sergent George P. Gillbert of the bomb squad, turned in a volume of poems. The book, with her name on the fly leaf, found its way to a rest station behind the firing lines, and there fell into the hands of Lleut. William J. Edwards of the marine corps, who wrote her a letter asking her if she were as sweet as the verses. When he came home he called, and apparently found her so, for they were married the other day at the Gravesend Reformed church. After a honeymoon in Bermuda, Lieutenant Edwards and his bride will live in Washington. Decorated in Overall Abblene, Kan—Because he refused to leave his work in the Hiverside power plant to go to a celebration at Adalast the other night and receive a citation and Distinguished Service Cross, William H. Fulter was deprived in overalls the next day by Col. J. L. Petroseus of Wichita, who brought the medal to him. Fulter rescued a conde under fire in the Argonne while serving in Company M, One Hundred and Thirty-seventh infantry. He insisted that he was not specially deserving of honor and would not appear in public to receive it. FINDS HIS STOLEN PICTURE Artist Discover's Painting at Art Dealer's Taken From His Studio 16 Years Ago. New York.—Among the products of his own brush prized most highly by Chlde Hassam, was a picture which he painted when beginning his career in the Latin quarter of Paris three decades ago, and although it disappeared 16 years ago, when he was moving from one apartment to another in this city, his recollection of it never faded entirely. Recently Frank K. M. Rehn, son of an artist and himself a dealer in art at 6 West Fliffith street, called on Mr. Hassam to inquire, as to the authenticity of a picture attributed to him and previously acquired by the dealer. When Mr. Hassam entered the dealer's gallery and viewed "Flower Girl Selling Peonies" he at once recognized his long-missing painting. As Mr. Rehn had bought the painting he demurred against giving it back without being reimbursed. Mr. Hassam began an action in the supreme court for the recovery of the picture or $1,000. BRITONS LACK CHORUS GIRLS Slow to Turn to Stage After Long Period at Other Work During War. London.—England is experiencing a shortage of chorus girls, according to some theatrical agents and stage managers. Plenty of young women are still anxious to get into the limelight, but experienced girls are said to be far less plentiful than they were. One theatrical agent has explained the situation thus: "During the war a large number of chorus girls, show girls and other 'small part ladies' left the stage for other work. Some are remaining in it permanently; others have not yet come back to the theater. Many girls, too, were married to officers during the war. Even salaries of four pounds ($19.40) are not tempting girls to go out of London." Blew Out 90 Lights. Rochester, Minn.—With 13 relatives and members of his family about him, C. C. Wilson, a Rochester attorney, celebrated his nineteenth birthday here. A cake sufficiently large to cover an ordinary table contained 90 candles. Wilson blew out the candles one at a time and when he got through he intimated that he would perform a more important feat ten years hence. Wilson is believed to be the oldest practicing attorney in the Northwest. 60 Pounda Tuberculosis, may use it under plain directions.

REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING While it is true that occasional advertising will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant, persistent advertising will keep business growing during "dull days." The merchant who considers riches a burden should never advertise. His store may be like a summer resort in the hills who HOW advertises? The merchant who never advertises under any circumstance or condition may imagine he is wise, but his competitors have no desire to disturb his imagination. It's a good time to "get awake."

Examinations for Cleveland postoffice clerks and carriers will be held, Jan. 10. Salaries for the postoffice work range from $1,200 to $1,650. Because of the many economic changes since 1910, the importance of the approaching decennial census to our people should not be underestimated. These changes will be a matter of record in the history of the growth of the race, and of the nation, and the statistical information which will be compiled from the data collected by the census enumerators, who will canvass the U. S. in January should provide a source of reliable information for this and for future generations. Through migration our population of some states has considerably increased while in others it has decreased since the census of 1910. Agricultural activities appear to be extending in new directions. Thousands of our men and women have become familiar with the life of the nation as producers, Indications, in certain states, point to a large increase in home ownership. A substantial growth in the number of business enterprises owned and operated by our men is reflected in their newspapers and magazines which are growing in number and influence. The number of professional men and women is steadily increasing and the percentage of literacy is rapidly decreasing. The accuracy of the census reports depends largely upon the willingness of each individual to answer each question asked by the enumerator, and it is only in this way that reliable data can be obtained from which can be determined the social and economical progress made by each element of the population. The census bureau emphasizes the importance of information collected by the census as strictly confidential! It can not be used as a basis for taxation, for the enforcement of any federal state, or local law, or in any way whatsoever that will cause harm to the person giving it or to his affairs. No one, therefore, should hesitate to give to the census enumerators complete and truthful replies which the enumerators can use in filling out the printed census schedule carried by them, nor should any attempt be made by any one to cover up the true facts that pertain to each man and woman. CORRESPONDENTS WANTED The old reliable Gazette desires an active agent and correspondent in every city and town in Ohio and neighboring states having a number of Afro-American residents. Only a little time on Fridays or Saturdays is required.

Our readers will oblige us greatly by sending at once the addresses of persons in the cities named and others in the state, to whom we can write relative to the matter. "THINK AS A MAN" Class is as fatal in intelligence as anywhere else. Watch yourself, that you do not slump into looking at all questions from the point of view of your class.

PREJUDICE "Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and flatter it and accept it as a law of nature."—John Stuart Mill. My ear is pained My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which the earth is filled. There is no flesh in man's obdurate heart. It does not feel for man: the natural bond Of brotherhood is severed as the flax That falls asunder at the touch of fire. He finds his fellow guilty of a skin Not colored like his own: and having power To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey. Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys: Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot. —Cowper.> We stand ready at all times to replace any dentistry that does not give perfect satisfaction to the patient.

A. Byrd Submits Five Demands Which Afro-Americans, Loyal Republicans, Indorse Never in the history of this country was this fact as potent as now—that only one of the two great parties will rule the nation for the next four years. It is equally and painfully evident that the Democratic party has all but wrecked the government and to trust it for another four years would mean chaos and anarchy. Thoughtful men of all parties are looking to the Republican party for relief. Particularly are the colored citizens of America looking to the Republican party, the one they have so loyalty supported for fifty years. Without laying any strength upon their million votes, the colored Americans if intelligently guided, will have much to say about the man. He should be understood that Negroes intend to support the Republican party. It also should be understood that Negroes for the first time in their lives are going to make known to the party their wishes and will assure the party that no stone will be left unturned to secure these things. First, we want the southern system of "electing" federal officers destroyed. The whole election machinery of the south was built to rob colored men of their votes irrespective of whether these votes are intelligent or not. Every American citizen has the right to say who shall rule him and what shall be the laws under which he shall live. This the south arrogantly and defiantly denies to its colored people. There has been no device of trickery, cheating, ballot-box corruption and intimidation that the south has not resorted to to defraud the colored man. This is the most gigantic fraud. By keeping Negroes out of the primary they elect whom they desire and on election day they are counted in regardless of the votes cast. By this high-handed and unconstitutional method the south is running the government. In the na- M. Dr. Wm. A. Byrd tional Congress the south is ever ready to villify, lie upon Negroes and defend the 'barbarieties of southern white "men" that are only equalled by savages. The Republican party can change these things. The south is the cause of Bolshevism in America. It has taught foreigners that the south is above the law. It 'not only murders and kills as upon pleases anyone defiantly in the world of deceased Benjamin Tillman, "what are you going to do about it?" As colored citizens, voters, fighters for America's independence and safety, we ask that no section of America be allowed to do as the south is doing Second, we ask that state rights be thrown to the scrap pile, when the rights of an American citizen is at stake. State rights exist only when a section of the country desires to force upon the whole nation unlawful acts which the people, as a nation, will not stand for but a section will. Third, we desire a uniform test for the franchise be had in every state. Whatever limitations or safe-guards are thrown around the ballot, they must apply to all citizens alike and no class of citizens shall be allowed to manipulate this ballot so as to do violence to the rights of others. Fourth, we want colored men of ability in Congress. To that end we desire to say, to the Republican party that in its counsels it must so plan as to give representation in Congress to colored people where the vote of the colored race is about fifty per cent or more of the votes that disaffect the party. We defend themselves and their race as white men from the south are attempting to defend their murderous constitutences but we hope no colored representative will ever dishonor himself by condoning Negro murderers. Fifth, we desire that the Republican party make it a part of its creed give colored men representation in government of the nation, begin at the township and going up to the highest place in the government. If by a fair chance a colored man can a win. We are size and nausea state. We skin and race is no virtue in skin; it is found only in a just character. These things we desire to have the assurance of the party that it will work to bring about before we begin the campaign of 1920. Besides we are intensely interested in the personel of the man entering the White House. Men who cater to the southern point of view, we are opposed to. Men who will wink at the violation of law, because it helps their race, are not fit to be president and against them we shall wage a relentless war. The men desiring the one million colored votes must come up square and let the world know their attitude toward the rights of colored people. We want no man in the White House who will make it a rule to keep Negroes away from national functions there. Going to the White House is not a social thing but a national privilege. We should be welcomed there to every public function. As to office holding, we desire that colored men and women be given their pro rata share of these places in all the departments and in every portion of the government. The few places doled out heretofore will not satisfy. We desire only our share and nothing more. (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd. THOMAS WRITES PALMER Attorney General of the U. S.—Puts Our Trust Where "The Old Reliable" Hon. Mitchell Palmer, U. S. Attorney General, Washington, D. C. My Dear Sir, We are amused at your prolonged wall against the manly element of Negroes in this country who are weary of lynching, "jim-crowism", peonage, disfranchisement, wholesale robbery of educational opportunity, exploitation of labor, the rape of the defenseless element of their womanhood by white vultures, claiming culture and station, and advocates of segregation, and encouraging other burning wrongs that they suffer daily. Never occurred to you, as head of the department of justice, to use our great office to stop lynching, but to use it to stop the groans of the victim. It never occurred to you to use it to enforce the 14th and 15th amendment to the U. S. constitution, the fundamental law of the land, for which your department wss created and still exists, but to stop the Negro's complaints against his serfdom. Let me tell you, sir, those papers (race publications) express most accurately the Negro's feeling toward his country which he has served so well, and nothing will alter that feeling but justice. And remember, justice means the abolition of every one of the above-named crimes. It is not an investigation that your department should recommend, but a system of justice which square with Woodrow Wilson's photocopy. Our brave boys were drafted in numbers out of all proportion to their population to fight for a freedom they have never known, and we, their blood-kin, regardless of consequences, are going to get the freedom for which we were asked to die. Among the many able and many Negro journals from which you quote I note an excerpt from The Cleveland (J. G) Gazette, published by the Hon. Harry C. Smith. In the issue of Aug. 23rd he tells the notorious truth about the persistent pursuit of colored women in the South by white men, especially by those loud-mouthed hypocrites who preach racial purity and segregation. We are all agreed with him when he says that these brutes are the "monumental liars of creation." Yes, we are with him when he condemns the criminal white Americans who tried to corrupt fair France where the curse of color has never degraded her people, and when he says that the French people as an unbiased jury deemed the Negro American superior to the white! This same man for over thirty years in his paper, in the legislature of his state, and on the platform has committed treason to those flourishing American institutions of lynching, the prostitution of the law in many sections to deprive the Negro of his rights, the destruction of the merit system in some departments by making color and not merit the basis of appointment and probation, the studied insult of colored people by men in places of power and by millions of white citizens, the miscarriage of justice in the courts, and all of the numberless wrongs we suffer which surpass those inflicted by the Czar of all the Russias and the Sultan of the heathen Turks. We have entered the world of unrest to stay until absolute justice is done. We have nothing to fear, for any "ism" is better than the Hell we suffer here in the land where democracy is oratory and not life. So, my 'dear sir, get ready for democracy. We have fought for it, and now we are going to get it or the world will know the reason why. Check the spread of Bolshevism with democracy. That is the only power that can dam the rising tide of unrest that is destined to engulf the entire twelve millions of this outraged people. Pay attention to the service of the Apropathome hunter who tell you that we are contented, and that the discontented among us are very few. They are simply conscienceless politicians who put office above principle, and who have completely lost control over any element of our people. Knowing that you will use this great agency of government from now on to enforce the constitution, thus guaranteeing the peace of our people, and vindicating the nation's good name at home and abroad, I am, respectively yours, (Signed.) NEVAL H. THOMAS. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, JANUARY 3: 1920. 3054 3054—This is a good model for drill, gingham, chambray, percale, lawn, sateen or alpaca. The Pattern is cut in One Size, medium.

"By George," said the expatriate, "the unnaturalness of living in an apartment never struck me so forcibly as when last night my two kids laid their letters to Santa Claus on the top of the steam radiator and went off to bed trying to figure how Santa Claus could come down the steam pipes and up through the colls. I went out to buy a cigar before they could ask me. Poor little kids, no stockings hung by the chimney for them." A Peculiar Couple. Conversation had turned to the subject of two men, utterly dis-similar, who nevertheless roomed together. One of these men was generally conceded to be a "freak." His name was John.
