THE GAZETTE ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25,1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since CLEVELAND, OHIO, SATURDAY, JUNE 19, 1920. A. B. Member of the Ohio Legislature for Three Terms (six years), Files as a Candidate for Republican Nomination for Secretary of State—His Statement. COLUMBUS, O.—For more than thirty years, Ohio Afro-Americans have wanted a candidate for a state office. Many years ago they asked the nomination of clerk of the state supreme court (the smallest state office) at the hands of the Republican party of Ohio and were refused as before and since that time. This left our voters practically helpless because all nominations were made in state conventions and we were unable to get a majority vote in any of them to give us what we wanted and were entitled to. Now it is different! One has only to secure the signatures of five reputable Republicans who know him and are willing to attest his Republicanism, etc., pay the fee of $25 and file the paper with the secretary of state before the time-limit, to stand as a candidate for the nomination. This the editor of The Gazette did, the week of June 14, 20, accompanied by Captain and Attorney Leroy H. Godman, (as a witness), another, "stout" Harding supporter during the trying days preceding the recent state primary when Ralph Wilberga Tyler of this city was "shelling" the Harding "breastworks" with "lily-white" Texas and other stories for which there was absolutely no foundation in fact. There are over 100,000 Afro-American voters in this state now. If (with his white friends) two thirds of them will vote for Harry C. Smith and not Harvey C. Smith or Harold C. Smith or Charles Q. Hildebrant, the other candidates for the office, the editor of The Gazette will be triumphantly nominated on August 10, and this presidential year a Republican nomination in Ohio means election in November. For the first time in the history of our people of this state, we have a candidate for a state office and what is more to the point is the fact that our people of Ohio have votes enough to win the nomination for the office if they will but be loyal to their own and VOTE on August 10 next. Will they do it? We shall soon see. The Editor's Statement. Columbus, O., June 11-'20. In filing for the Republican nomination for Secretary of State, I do so without having had any conferences at any time with any of the leaders or others of the various factions of the Republican party in the state of Ohio. None of them know of this action of mine, the result of conferences held today with a few of the leading members of my race in Cleveland and Columbus. All feel that the present Secretary of State Harvey C. Smith's persistent refusal, for nearly two years, to give my people the clerical representation in that office they have held under every other Republican Secretary of State for many years, except Charles Q. Hildebrant, makes it absolutely necessary that some one of my people should enter the contest. Acquiescing in their view of the matter, I decided to enter and have done so! There are now between one hundred and one hundred and twenty-five thousand colored voters in this state, almost to a man, Republicans. Instead of diminishing the meager representation heretofore allotted them (as have office-holders of the party like Secretaries of State Smith and Hilderbrand) it should have been on the increase for years: Intelligent colored voters of Ohio have reached the limit of their endurance in this matter, and in this primary contest propose to serve notice in a practical way on Secretary of State Smith and all other neglectful office-holders and members of the party that there must come an immediate change for the better or intelligent colored voters will carry their fight into the elections. Harry C. Smith. Member Ohio Legislature (three terms) 1894, 5, 6, 7, 1900 and 1901. Editor and proprietor, The Gazette, Cleveland, O., for 37 years. Again we ask who sent The Gazette, $2 on Mar. 27 and $1 on May 29, thru the mails, and forgot to enclose their name and address? And "Turned Down"—His "Rider" Killed Three Board Members Appointed Neval H. Thomas Active. Special to The Gazette Washington, D. C.—Mrs. Coralie Franklin Cook was re-appointed, for a third term, to the board of education by the District Supreme Court, last week Tuesday. Her two white colleagues, Dr. Abraham Simon and Dr. H. Barrett Learned, were re-appointed also. Mrs. Cook is the only member of the board who has received the honor, three consecutive times, in the history of the District. These appointments are construed as a distinct slap at Senator Harrison from Mississippi and the colored Parents League which had attacked the board and its policy. The Senator in the closing hours of congress had secured the passage of a rider in the urgency: deficiency bill abolishing the board of education, and emasculating the colored officials of the schools, and placing supreme power in the hands of the white superintendent who had shown himself entirely out of sympathy, with the colored schools. He had opposed all of the constructive measures of Superintendent Bruce, neglected to invite him to congressional committees when school's estimates were being decided upon and would not ask for colored items himself, and opposed equality of salary for white and colored school officers. Neval H. Thomas attacked him a number of times for his discrimination and incurred his severe dislike. This rider lodged the appointing power of the new board in the president of the United States. Denounces the Malicious "France" Stories Circulated in This Country Against the Principal of Tuskegee (Aln.) Institute. According to recent information, the much heralded reports of what Principal Moton of Tuskegee should have advised soldiers of color in France about returning to America and accepting whatever might be given them have been proved a booming. Worst still, it appears that it was a part of a propaganda to discredit Dr. Moton and thereby drive him out of Tuskegee. Many of us on hearing the many unnily things attributed to him felt that he had done dishonor to himself and the colored people everywhere and feeling as we did we failed not in condemning him in the strongest terms. Having recently heard Mr. Moton deliver an address to colored young men who had graduated from college, we are of the opinion that he could not have said what has been attributed to him. The very many statements uttered by him before representatives of all races show that he is fearless yet discreet, courageous yet diplomatic and determined, yet accomplishing his purposes in a wise way. We stand unalterably opposed to any man that would deny the colored race full American rights and we further challenge any man to show one instance where we have faltered in our stand which we have later laboring in the south with as much fervor and wide publicity as we hold now while in the north. Tuskegee, properly handled, is one of the most potent factors in the development of the colored race. Under a wise leadership it can do tremendous good. We feel now that under Major Moton it will meet the ends sought. To attempt to discredit him, is infamous when it is a part of a malicious propaganda. We may dislike a man and his way of doing things, but we demand for our enemies fair play. We pledged Major Moton our support when he took up the work at Tuskegee but, hearing the many things said about his weakening on the race issue and seeing many things published which were not denied, we could not uphold him in what we felt was a betrayal of the race. We are glad to know that the published and spoken things were not true. The friends of Major Moton, who are in many respects friends because they hope to use him for their purposes, should have corrected in a manly way these misrepresentations. Friendship that is mercenary is worth but little. We have no fight against any man who is working to bring about real Negro freedom in rights and privileges. We realize however that these rights and privileges must be achieved in the south by tact and wisdom. The colored race as such has not sought these rights. It has not educated itself and especially its leadership so as to disarm prejudice The colored people knew that Mr. Wilson would appoint no colored members, so they opposed the change. The president appointing power, the District Supreme Court, gives us three members, a third of the board membership. Neval H. Thomas rushed to the capitol to urge the conferences from the House to oppose the amendment: Congressmen Dallinger of Massachusetts, Fess of Ohio, Dyer of Missouri, and Madden of Chicago, took up the case vigorously since it affected the colored people so vitally. The District Commissioner and other influential white citizens opposed the rider also, and it was knocked out. Senator Harrison held up the pressing business of the senate for two hours trying to get it to insist upon the retention of the rider in the bill, but without success. The Court immediately showed its rebuke of the league and the gentleman of Mississippi by renaming the three board members, and the full board showed its determination not to be intimidated by immediately notifying the white superintendent, that he could not be retained. The Parents League is still fighting for the retention of the white superintendent, however. President John VanSchaick, Jr., of the board of education, is determined to give Washington an educational leader, and one that will have the interest of all of the children, at heart. Mrs. Cook is the colored member of the committee appointed to select a new superintendent. Good! and call forth admiration. It is not enough to clamor for rights, but we must also manifest the ability and power to use these intelligently. While we disapprove of the unfairness of southern whites toward colored people in many of the essentials of our American life we also disapprove of the attitude of the colored people to receive these superior rights when they have as a mass not prepared themselves for them. A high regard for virtue, a thirst after education so that one is willing to make sacrifices for it, and a comprehension of our form of government so that we may handle the franchise intelligently are indispensable to us in our fight. Our rise in civic and spiritual virtues will do more to disarm prejudice and open the gates to real liberty in the south than anything else. The consciousness of the best whites, even though they are too few, must be aroused and the alliance of the best of both races is paramount, if we would win this fight in a bloodless way. Migration to the north is helping but it is also transferring the problem from the south to the north. The immigrants that are coming to the north are making the sad mistake of attempting to bring the habits, prejudices and customs of the south with them. Coming to the north they show no real desire to acquire an education. Their attitude is hostile toward any white face. This will not do. We must have an era of good will both in the north and south and he is an enemy that destroys this good will. Major Moton is trying to do his part toward this era of good will. We shall stand by him. Our attitude is not on what we have heard but what we know. EDITOR SMITH IN CITY. (From The Chicago Defender.) Hon Harry C. Smith of Cleveland, Ohio, was the guest this week of Prof. and Mrs. Henderson Smith of 2322 Calumet avenue. Mr. Smith was the Race's first deputy state oil inspector and for three terms (six years) was a member of the Ohio legislature. He is the father of Ohio's anti-lynching law and Ohio's civil rights law and the first man of either race in this country to secure the passage of an effective mob violence law. Our Illinois anti-lynching law is much like it. Mr. Smith called on the Defender to see his friend, Editor Abbott. He was here in the interest of the candidacy of Senator Warren G. Harding of Ohio, a former colleague of his in the Ohio legislature in 1900 when ex-Governor Frank B. Willis and ex-Congressman Ralph D. Cole, the next governor of Ohio, were also members. Robert O'Neil, E. 27th St., pleaded not guilty before Judge Kennedy, Wednesday, to an indictment charging him with first degree murder. Police said he killed his wife, Hattie O'Neil, by cutting her throat. May 20. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS OUR NEXT PRESIDENT! M. "HOW COLORED, OHIO REGARDS WARREN G. HARDING." Ohio has become one of the great casions, in public speech and pivotal states, politically, looked to wise, in years gone by, made with anxious eyes by both parties in his friendly attitude toward a national campaigns. Born in Ohio, schooled in Ohio, a for them which it is not neces reporter in Ohio, newspaper publisher enumerate at this time. One in Ohio, state senator in Ohio, lieuten-sure and that is, our people t ant governor in Ohio, United States out the country will make no senator from Ohio—Warren G. Hard- in giving the standard-bearer of Marion has Ohio lineage that great Republican party, this gives him caste. And that counts, their most, enthusiastic and a Senator Harding is undoubtedly the ed support. choice of the Republicans of his home Knowing him so well for the state for the presidency. Blooming Grove, Morrow county, O., was the birthplace of Warren G. Harding. He was born, Nov. 2, 1865. After being graduated from Iberia college, he entered a law office in Marion as a student, became a reporter, later took over a newspaper plant, and became head of the Marion Star. He served twice in the Ohio senate and one term as lieutenant governor. He was the Republican candidate for governor in 1910; but Judson Harmon defiled him. Mr. Harding was elected to the senate in 1914. Four years ago he was a delegate-at-large to the Republican national convention, and was the temporary and permanent chairman and keynote orator. How Senator Harding was triumphantly nominated, last week, for the Presidency by the Chicago Republican National Convention has been so thorouly covered by the daily press of the country, and discussed by nearly everyone, that it is not necessary to repeat at this time. As a matter of fact, The Gazette predicted it, editorially, last week. What our people, the country over wish to know, judging from numerous letters received, this week, is answered in the letter to our conferee, of the Baltimore Afro-American which follows: Cleveland, Ohio, June 14, 1920. Editor Afro-American, 628 Eutaw St. Baltimore, Md. Dear Sir and Friend--In answer to your question as to "How Colored Ohio regards Warren G. Harding," I desire to say that we regard him most favorably indeed and will support him with an enthusiasm greater than that, which obtained in the case of any other Ohio candidate for the Presidency. Of all the candidates for the Republican nomination for the Presidency, at the Republican Convention held in Chicago, last week, Senator Warren G. Harding, as far as I have been able to learn, is the only one who has been consistently friendly to our people throughout his public career and private life and has also done something material for "the good and welfare" of the race. "When a member of the Ohio Assembly in 1900, State Senator Warren G. Harding was a colleague of the writer," Frequently during that session of the Ohio Legislature I found it necessary to ask his vote and support for measures of prime if not vital interest to my people of this state. In every instance he willingly complied and, too, without the usual interrogation and argument. Nor was it ever necessary for me to repeat my request for his promised vote and support. This is what I call material assistance and better evidence of a true friendship for the race than any other candidate before last week's Chicago Convention is able to produce, as far as I have been able to ascertain. Of course Senator Harding, like most public men, has on many occ IN UNION IT IS SEEDED IN COPY FIVE CENTS ATE! HAVE! PRESIDENT! DS WARREN O. HARDING." cases, in public speech and otherwise, in years gone by, made known his friendly attitude toward our people and has done many other things for them which it is not necessary to enumerate at this time. One thing sure and that is, our people throughout the country will make no mistake in giving the standard-bearer of the great Republican party, this fall, their most enthusiastic and undivided support. Knowing him so well for the past twenty years, I feel safe, in saying that he will make the best "President for all the people of this country, especially ours, the United States of America has had since the days of Presidents Lincoln and Grant. With apologies to the late President Roosevelt, I wish to say in conclusion that "Colored Ohio" en masse is simply "de-lighted" as a result of the nomination for the Presidency of Ohio's favorite son, Senator Warren G. Harding. Yours for Republican success in November. Harry C. Smith. Editor, The Cleveland, O., Gazette, Member Ohio Legislature, 1894, 5, 6, 7, 1900 and 1891. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Prop. The Gazette, Cleveland, Ohio. My dear Mr. Smith: I have been intending to write to you for some time and utter to you an expression of my grateful appreciation of the cordial support which you gave to me during the political activities preceding the Presidential Primary in Ohio. The Gazette was eminently fair in all its references, and the campaign, so far as I was concerned, was a wonderfully helpful influence in having my position fully understood by its large list of devoted readers. Nothing can be more harmful in preventing the colored citizen from coming into his full influence as a vote than the prejudiced appeal, which is often made by self-assumed leaders who are more concerned with their own personal advantages than they are the good of the Party. I have always known The Gazette to be eminently fair and abidingly truthful. Warren G. Harding. THE FIRST INVITATION. Lorenz, O. June 14, 22 Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette. Cleveland, O. Honorable and Dear Sire, I had, with the greatest satisfaction the announcement of your candidacy for Secretary of State. I shall do it, a great privilege and pleasure to do all in my power to help you to land the nomination. I shall be glad, therefore, if you will give me the chance to manifest the high esteem in which I hold you and I may be able to do some good for your candidacy in this county. Would it be possible for you to come to Loram on Friday evening of this week and present your cause to our people in person? If so, wire me between 7 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. on receipt of this note.

SATURDAY, JUNE 19. 1920. HARDING AND COOLIDGE. We congratulate Senator Harding on his nomination for the presidency. In 1912, we supported Theodore Roosevelt because we felt he represented the best in politics. During the Presidential primaries we supported Senator Harding because we felt he was the best man for the place. We rejoice with Senator Harding that he and we are vindicated in our opinions, and here is to his election. We dedicate ourselves unreservedly to his election. Never in the history of any nation was there a greater need for a wise and safe president as is now in America. The political effluvia, that arises at Washington under the present regime, is sickening and deadly and should be removed. The Republican party should come into power to insure the nation against loss and chags. Harding and Coolidge represent the highest in American ideals. The country can trust them. They are real Americans for America and will not be lost in the dream of world power which will destroy America and make Europe all-powerful. The colored people will welcome most heartily the change. Segregation, humiliation and unjust discrimination have reigned unchecked for seven years. The preacher of righteousness in Washington has lived a life of opposites. Contradictory statements and life have disgusted everybody. Colored voters will enter this campaign to do their share, both in contributing money and casting ballots that will destroy the southern oligarchy that was ruled the nation for the most shameful period in American history. We ask of Senator Harding when he is elected no special favors. We wish no coajoling, neither do we desire any special laws for our benefit. We ask the enforcement of the Constitution with all of its Amendments. The fourteenth, fifteenth and eighteenth alike. We ask a fair share of the emoluments of office, if the party is successful. We desire to be treated simply as American citizens on equality with all other citizens. Exact of what may be exacted of any American and see to it that we receive also what any other American receives. Colored men will not be influenced by any cry of a third party, this year. Any attempt to influence the men who followed Roosevelt in 1912, against Harding will miserably fail. The solidarity of the Republican party was never so much needed as now and we assure the nation that black people will lead in restoring this solidarity. We do this, not only for our sake but for the sake of foolish white voters who follow any am and also for the sake of our country, to prevent it from going to the devil toward whom it is fast drifting. The Gazette led in the Harding fight before his nomination and it will lead in the election of Harding and Coolidge. (Rev.) Wm.; A. Byrd. Congratulations! My dear Mr. Smith:—Accept my congratulations for the fine work done by you in helping to bring about the nomination of Senator Harding. You and I are one not because we love The Gazette and strive to make it count but because Providence leads us. In your fight to help elect Harding and Coolidge I stand squarely by you. In the east, or wherever I can best serve, you have but to command me. Sincerely yours. (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd. Senator Warren G. Harding was one of Senator Joseph Benson Foraker's lieutenants for years. Do not forget that, loyal Afro-Americans. The Chicago convention nominated the best man for our people mentioned in connection with the Republican nomination for the Presidency. Absolutely no doubt of that. Yes, we feel very happy indeed over the nomination of Senator Harding. It was the best thing for the party as well as our people. Of course you remember that The Gazette published Senator Harding's portrait on the first page of its May 1, '20, issue and over it ran this line—OUR NEXT PRESIDENT! Prophetic, wasn't it? "The Old Reliable" Gazette was practically the only race paper in the country that supported Senator Harding for the nomination before the recent primaries. Have you noticed that fact? Felicitations (on the Harding nomination). Brothers Fred Patterson of Greenfield, Robert Allen, Harry Alexander and Capt. L. H. Godman, of Columbus; Hon. Wm. Copeland of Cincinnati; Prof. W. S. Scarborough of Wilberforce; Hon. Charles Cottrill of Toledo, and all the others in the state. We helped materially to do a good job. Senator Harding said to that delegation of the National Equal Rights league that called on him in Chicago, late last Saturday evening, after his nomination: "I am for democracy in its fullness." That is all we ask. He will stop the Washington, D. C., segregation in governmental departments just as soon as he becomes President, which will be March 4, next year. Representatives of the N. E. R. league did a good job when they secured, at Chicago, last week, the adoption of a rule by the Republican National Committee that in the future no party convention of delegates could be held in a place where colored persons were not allowed to go. According to the despatches to the daily papers of the country, several weeks ago; Pres. Moorfield Storey, of the N. A. A. C. P., in his annual address to its recent Atlanta, Ga., meeting, endorsed the prejudiced southern demand for the separation of the races (segregation of our people) in many things. We have been patiently waiting to see this affirmed or denied by N. A. A. C. P. officers. Just before its adjournment, last week, a resolution was rushed through the Republican national convention directing the national committee to cut down the southern representation in national conventions. This is undoubtedly the result, largely, of southern delegates of both races' acceptance of money from candidates for the Presidential nomination. It is not directed at Afro-American southern delegates only, as some of our people think. --- OUR LESSON We must learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement. If we do not learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement, we may be very sure that we will be governed by others in their own interest as well as worked by others for their own advancement and not ours.—George W. Blount. THE MAN WHO DARES. "I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dare to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, indolent judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends."—Charles Sumner. PROTEST AGAINST WRONG. To shamhit 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. "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. Think as a human being, not as a Republican, or Democrat, or Laborer, or capitalist, or Protestant, or Catholic, or Jew, or an Easterner, or a Westerner, or a Negro, or an American. Think as a man—Dr. Frank Crane. THE GAZETTE. CLEVELAND. OHIO. JUNE 19, 1920.

WIPES OUT 'COLOR-LINE' MONTEREAL, Que., Ca., June 10.—The American Federation of Labor today wired out the "color line" and warned its affiliated international unions that Negro workers must be given full and equal membership. "This, I believe, will settle the Negro problem in our organization for all time," said Chairman Duncan. "Our affiliated unions must now understand that the color line is abolished." A PRIVILEGE 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 sneer or the frown. Joseph C. Manning. 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 ob- durate 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.

Morris and Mrs. Cox, who lived next door to him, became embroiled in another hot argument on Saturday night. He slapped her, went to his house and secured a chair and returned to the scene of strife. Mrs. Cox is said to have abused Morrison, who had him in a fight with hispidore. In the fight that ensued his wife jumped between Morris and his sister-in-law and was stabbed through the heart, dying in a few minutes, Mrs. Cox, who was stabbed in the stomach, is (at this writing) at the point of death in a local hospital. Morris' hearing is set for this Friday morning.

Intellectually progressive, she is physically most conservative. The leaders of thought filing the most advanced ideas in social philosophy back and forth over their dinner tables, but those tables are laden with large meals cooked after the exact fashion that they have been cooked in German Bohlenia for the last 200 years. The good professor will follow any intellectual concept that convinces his profoundly logical mind, but he will stick to his grandfather's style of pie in the face of all opposition and indigestion. Someone might trace an interesting and instructive relationship between German pie and German pessimism. The contrast between old manner and new thought run all through Jena. Here is one of the most famous of European universities, here are philosophers and metaphysicians of the most daring and radical, and all about them is an old pictureque city whose comfortable burgher class is quite untouched by all the intellectual fireworks that coruscate from the university grounds. Jena has, all the carmarks of a German university town—the little knots of gay capped students, the creeper covered buildings, the beer cellars, the gardens, the occasional dignified and black-clad faculty member pacing austerely down the intimate old street, respectfully saluted on every hand. All this student life is overlaid on a solid and pictureque background of town life, of comfortable solid houses, of blue-eyed middle class maidens, of cool streets and flowery gardens. Jena is elaborately fond of gardens. They confront you on every hand, carefully tended and lushly flourishing. They bloom with a lavishness that is perhaps a product of the intellectual atmosphere. Jena is famous for her gardens, her glass factories, her beer and her great man. Any one of these industries carried to the point that they carry it in Jena, would insure the fame of an ordinary town. DEEPEST WELL IN THE U. S. Present Depth Is 7,214 Feet, After Five Years' Labor. After five years' labor and an expenditure of more than $300,000, the deepest well in the United States still lacks a few feet of equaling the depth of the world's deepest well in Roumania. During 1916 the bit probing the heart of the earth advanced only thirty-four feet making the present depth of the Geary well near McDonald, Pa., 7,214 feet. The Roumanian well is 7,300 feet in depth. Work will be continued by the company drilling the Geary well. It is understood the company has the backing of the United States Geological Survey, careful record being kept of the strata encountered. At a great depth a strata, of rock salt over 100 feet in thickness was discovered. The wire cable used in the work of drilling is at present 10,000 feet of length, tapering in diameter from one and one-quarter inches to seven-eights of an inch. NEW DRY BATH DISCOVERED It Reduces Time of Brown-toning to Half a Minute. A new dry bath for chlorium-bromide paper, which, according to its discoverer, reduces from twenty minutes to one half minute the time required for brown-toning, was demonstrated at the annual meeting in Linkooring, Sweden, of the Swedish Photographers' Union. The demonstrator declared that he was now able to secure immediately the tone desired, independent of the quality of the plate or the length of exposure.

OUR OMIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohie Civil Rights law which the editor had Berar) ee cerme Court has several times upheld the law which has been very effective. Only ome other state (illinois) in this country has such a law and it is largely a copy of our Ohio law. Here it is— (in the statutes) under the heading enacted while a member of the Tist General Assembly, in 1804: Win Bamana? Cade of Obie: Sec. 12940, Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eat- ing house, barber-shop, public con- veyance by land or water, theater or otier place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a. citizen, except for reavons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the ac- commodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall he 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 five hundred dollars to the per- con aggrieved thereby to be recov ered in any court of competent. jur- isdietion in the county where such of- fense was committed: This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not tise 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 TRAGEDY OF THE HALF LOAF, (From the Chicago Whip.) ‘The strongest races of men, and the ‘most indomitable characters. of his- tory have always either uncompro- misingly demanded every scintilla of their just rights, or, being denied the full measure of attainment of their ideals, have spurned even life itself. Patrick Henry in crying out for “either liberty or death,” voiced the sentiment of the Pilgrim Fathers, ‘who preferred the unknown horrors of the great uncharted Western ocean ‘and the savage-ridden land beyond to religious oppression in a comfortable home. But the American colored man is apparently satisfied with the HALF LOAF.. For 250 years he was told that he was entitled to NOTHING —that he even enjoyed life itself by suffrance. His mind was so deliber- ately diversified and stunted that he could not even think to the con- trary “So well was this psychology in- ‘grained into him that, even today, race leaders of the old school, finding it impossible to break from this log cabin philosophy, “handed it down to free men.” He was’ so thoroughly robbed of his mentality, that he complacently help- ed manufacture the shot and shell which enabled his masters to keep him in slavery. When Liberty and Citi- zenship were granted him, his childish mind could not grasp their signifi- cance. He took what was given him with a thankful heart, thanks to the teachings of the old school. He has not yet demanded uneqitiyo- cally all that is due him! He fears to refuse acceptance of the Half Loaf and demand the WHOLE, trembling Test he be denied any at all. With ‘apologetic mein and smirking smile, he renders gratitude for “jim-crow” settlement houses, “jim-crow” sol- Giors and sailors’ clubs, ‘'jim-crow” ¥.M.C. A's, “jim-crow" officers’ training camps, “jim-crow” churches, fraternities and polities. He thus plays the beggar’s role in spite of the fact that he has proven himself to be an indissoluble and in- divisible entity of the whole warp and woof of America, economic, po- litical, miitary and social. He ix the economic backbone of the South. He holds the balance of political power as he is beginning to learn. He has always been the fangs of the Ameri- can army: His blood, suspected and unsuspected flows in more yeins than ‘any other one strain in America. He is still a slave, if, he accepts anything short of the full unstinted measure of recognition and respect. The new colored American will never ugain be satisfied with EQUAL RIGHTS when they are not the SAME RIGHTS. The NEW Colored American, repudiating the teachings of the old school, who led him into the quagmire of peonage and serf- dom MUST and WILL spurn the Half Loaf and lay hold onto the WHOLE LOAF, “so help him God.” DARE TO PO YOUR pUTY “Let us have fulth that rieht makes might, and tn that {alth let ns to the end dare to do our dnty as we onder. stand It."—Abraham Lincoln. ~~ _THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, JUNE 19, 1920. The Two Greatest Evils Existing in the Great Republican Party. The Fifteenth Amendment Must Be Enforced —This We Must Continue to Insist Upon. 1 es eol RAG scic (ASIA the Sphta and Mnietines™ 01 The New York Sun and’ Herald said on March 18th that ‘the enforce- ment of the Fifteenth Amendment is |a matter entirely under the control | of Congress.” We quote this opinion in order to make the following obser- |vations, “First: The failure to en- force the Fifteenth Amendment is |due to unwillingness of white north- Jer politicians to put colored citizens [of the south on equality with white citizens. Second: that the country, |so far as the two political parties are concerned, does not intend to enforce | this portion of the constitution and will depend upon the sentiment of | race prejudice to back them up in this cowardly act. Third: both the north | and the south, as well as the east and west, are guilty of this flagrant vio- lation of the organic law of the coun- try. The campaign that will be waged this year must meet this issue clearly. If colored voters fail to | press this issue, they fail to measure up to the needs of the hour. The |democratic party has flagrantly and defiantly refused to consider the Fif- ee Amendment, while the Repub- ican party has hypocritically evaded Jit and yet privately acquiesced in the | democratic attitude. Will the colored | people continue to trust the Repibli- jean party in view of itsj wicked de- nial (just as much as the democrats) of the citizenship and franchise rights of the colored citizens of the south? | As the Republican party is now con- | stituted is there any hope for the jenforcement of this Amendment? Frankly we believe there is not a ghost of a chance. In almost every conflict where the two races came to- gether, white governmental officers jhave brought the law down heavily upon colored people but overlooked J the infractions of white culprits. The |men at the head of the Republican ‘party in all of the states do not care Jo enforce this portion of the consti- tution. So long as this Amendment is unenforced by congress, the consti- tution of the nation is a broken chain and as such cannot bear any weight nor pull any load. William Howard |Taft, the rightly defeated once-presi- | dent’ of the U, S., would oppose the | enforcement of this Amendment and there are thousands like him but have not had the opportunity to show their honds. The greatest evil exist- ing within the Republican party is hypocrisy and duplicity! If this party could publicly state its present posi- tion it would be, “damn the niggers and their franchise.” This the Demo- cratic party, as governed by the south, has said. The fact that the Re- publican party was formed to enact Freedom for the colored race is the only restraining power which keeps it from publicly speaking out as has the democratic south. ‘The Republican ‘party has dodged this issue too long! It was the Republicans in Congress that put through the “conscript law.” Under this act, the party forced the colored people of the south to fight for France, subscribe for liberty loans and do whatever white men were forced to do. If the Republican par- ty balks at enforcing the Fifteenth Amendment, it convicts itself of the basest hypocrisy and injustice. Col- ored voters did not object to the cone seription act but went in without be- ing forced. In fact if all the fighters had been 2s willing as were our men there would not have been any need for conscription. However, it became a law, placing upon every’ American citizen the burden of fighting for his country in every way he could. It is but just that if colored people in war should bear an equal share of the hazards and dangers, in peace they should enjoy the comforts and privi- leges to the same degree all citizens enjoy. The Republican party must woke @ public stand in its platform on this issue. We want the Fifteenth Amendment enforced! Not any other subterfuges to keep the colored citi- zen out of his rights, but the living up to the letter and spirit of the con- stitution, on this issue, Will the par- ty do it? It will attempt to evade it. Tt will depend upon cringing job- hunting politicians to aid them in evading it. A few appointments and a little flattering of empty-headed Nogro “leaders,” the Republican par- ty is depending upon to again fool the colored voters. In this they will be deceived. No party means anything to the colored voters that is unwill- ing to give them the same privileges everywhere that it, gives other eiti- zens, The fact Abraham Lineoin freed the colored people through the ‘Republican party does not mean any- thing now when that same party has hetrayed almost every principle, Abraham Lincoln enunciated, touch- ing colored people. Mr. Lincoln broke our slavish chains, so far as manual slavery was concerned, but the Re- publican party became a party to our re-enslavement, <0 far as our blood- bought franchise is concerned. If the Republican party has deserted every high purpose and national interest, as it has the franchise of the colored race in the south, then it has deserted the very issues that gave it birth and it must again return to its first love or be driven out of power as a swol- len autocrat that secks only to bene- fit a “few” but the many it despises. As we now stand, the Republican par- ty is the only one that can give the country any assurance of its contin- ee Or a Na firm the rights and privileges of Americans and leaves the lives, fran- chise and rights of colored Americans to the south that has scrupled at nothing to destroy the colored citizen, then we say, both of these parties should go to scrap-pile and a new par- ty with AMERICANISM as its basis should be enthroned which will know no race but know men only as Ameri- cans and enforce the laws everywhere so that no section of this country ean hold up the nation as. a nation of lynchers, burners of human flesh and revellers in human blood. Mr. Will Hays will either do this or go down in history as the “Last of the Mohicans” so far as the Republican party is con- cerned. ‘There are white men who, for generations have been in this par- ty and are in it now but when the is- sue of living the truth and making America the home for all men on the same basis be placed beside the issue ‘of lies, promises and political dodging, will forever leave this decadent. party of the once just and liberty-loving Lincoln to found another that has honesty enough to live its tenets and not deceive the people, MRS. MF. WALKER. Edna Jane Mason-Wa'ker, was born in Albany. 0., March 1, i861, and died at Cadiz, 0. May 26, 1920. In cher early life her parents moved to Oberlin, O.. where she was reared and schooled, graduating from the High School in. the class of "78, and from Oberlin College in the clats of 184, She afterwards taught school for ‘some years in Canada, and later in Kentucky. She was very prominent in society and lodge work, holding for several years the office of Grand Ma- tron of the Order of the Eastern Star in Ohio, as well as high posi- tions in the Court of Catanthe and other orders. Mrs. Walker was a very pleasant, emiable and intelligent lady, and for the past 15 years has resided in Cadiz, assisting her hushand, Mr. Moses Fleet Walker, proprietor of the Cadiz Pictorial ‘Theatre, as his very able and efficient director and manager. In this position by her genial and af- fabie courtesy and treatment of its patrons, she has made a host of friends throughout the entire commu- nity, who will sadly miss her friendly greetings and kindly acts of civility. Her illness, chronic nephritis, was of long standing and much suffering, but she was lovingly cared for and given every human aid by her devoted hus- band, to whom she was united in mar- riage May 11, 1898, Besides her husband, she is surviv- ed by a brother, Joseph Mason, of Oberlin: two sisters. Mrs. Kate Haw- ‘kins, of Lorain, and Mrs, Vietoria Jenkins, of Joliet; two _step-sons, George ‘and Thomas Walker of Steu- benville; a step-daughter, Mrs, Cleota Mills of Los Angeles; ' also. three nieces, Mr, Kate Moore. of Oberlin: Mrs. Carrie Underhill, Chicago, and Mrs. Beatrice Durando of Phoenix, Ariz, Brief funeral services were. con- ducted at her late residence, Thurs- day evening, by her friend, Prof. W. H. Lucas; a short serviee by mem- bers of the Court of Calanthe, and Friday morning her romains’ were taken to her old home at Oberlin for interment.—Cadiz. (0.) Republican, jeer TRAINING NEGRO LEADERS. | Almost every institution conducting ‘a training school ‘of any kind for col ored people, stamps itself as “train- ing Negro leaders.” It is a. mistake for would-be educators to feel that every colored boy that enters a schoo! does so upon the theory that he is to be a “leader.” Some of the. schools now working among. colored people would do far better work if. they would lay aside this false dream, that they are “preparing leaders for the colored race.” We need more in- telligent followers and less “leader- ship.” We need the general dissemi- nation of education among the masses so that the race as a unit wi'l show a more intelligent grasp of American ideals and customs. Many of the self- constituted “leaders” of the race are held in contempt by the thinking peo- ple of the race. ‘Then too the race does not need any “leader.” No one man or set of men can evolve the principles tha} the entire race must espouse and follow. There is no dis- tinct line of action or conduct that Negroes must take in this country. Our position is among "the races that make up this polyglot nation, We must so understand the ideals of the nation till unconsciously we dove-tail into the frame work of the nation without manifesting anything pecu- liarly Negro. Real Negro leaders will not only lead in the race but in the nation. They do so not by a me- chanical training of some. subsidized school, working under some covert scheme to give colored people a fixed kind of education, hence there must be leaders for it. Ability to measure arms with all men is the one prere- quisite necessary for leadership in the colored race. Any attempt to foist upon the colored race colored men trained by avhite mon of questionable motives will fail, especially when racial equality before the law is con- cerned, racial enjoyment of American privilezes on ecuality with all races and the participation in American government. Such trained men who: accept these heresies that colored Aanntartquat net eoktend’ for dhess!
