What Our People Are Doing Each Week—Chur Personal, Social, Lodge, Literary and Musical—Marriages, Deaths, Etc.
NEWARK—Sunday week was "victory rally day" at Trinity A. M. E. church, this city. There was laid on the table, $4,192.18. Of this amount, the pastor, Rev. Geo. L. Hicks, brought in $2,100. Fine! "Trinity" has less than 100 members and of course all are highly pleased with the results. Hurrah! for Rev. Hicks and his loyal co cegregation.

LORAIN.—A foreign-born keeper of a candy shop in a building where J. T. Wrice, an honest and reputable citizen, is employed as janitor, alleged that his store had been broken into by Mr. Wrice, whose home was, as a result, searched by plainclothesman. He was arrested, jailed and baked at $500. The case was finally dismissed for lack of evidence. All this as a result of an alleged difference between the two men. Mr. Wrice should see the fellow for damages. W. O. Williams, Mrs. Anna Watson of Lima and niece, Mrs. Frank Downs, were guests of Rev. and Mrs. W. H. Edwards, Sunday.—Mr. and Mrs. C. W.

NOT FOR COX
And President Wilson—Afro-Americans Everywhere for Harding and Coolidge.
Dayton, O., July 19, '20.
Hon. Harry Clay Smith,
Editor Gazette,
Cleveland, O.
Dear Sir:—The first page article under the caption "Cox's nomination gives pleasure to the race in Dayton," which appeared in last week's issue of Ralph W. Taylor's paper, is apt to leave the race at large under the impression that the colored voter of Dayton, will support the Democratic nominees because "home-city pride, if no other, prompts the colored voters here to delight in Cox's nomination." Not so, however, for race Daytonians have not so soon forgotten the past under Democratic regime. Both the immediate past and further back are fresh in the minds of those who vote. The immediate past, because in labor unit, field or trench, American race soldiers were made to suffer the tortures of the damned, and race officers were robbed of individuality, dignity, and manhood, and at the same time their wives, sisters and sweet-hearts were left as prey to the insulter and at the mercy of the mobster! "Then farther back" when the emperor of all Democrats sanctioned and established segregatory and discriminatory policies and precedents in the first city of the land, even in the nation's capitol. And now these two agree—Mr. Wilson and Mr. Cox. No race voter of Dayton is not for sale, and altho the bid may be made, and city pride count for all it is worth, and personal regards for a fellow-townsman add weight and argument, yet the adherence of the colored voter to the grand old party, need not be questioned, and Harding and Coolidge may feel assured that the Dayton sector, defended by race Republicans, cannot be broken through.

HARRY CLAY SMITH SHOULD
WIN IN PRIMARY.
Harry Clay Smith has won a place on the primary state ballot and it is now up to the voters of Ohio to give him the votes necessary to win. White and black Republicans owe it to him. He has been a fighter for every law that would make Ohio safe to live in. He has served his state honorably as state Assemblyman. He has the ability to discharge the duties of the office he now seeks. Colored voters of Ohio should work untimely to nominate Harry Clay Smith. Now they have an opportunity to repay "Our Harry" for the anti-lynching and civil rights' laws he placed on the statutes of Ohio. If nominated and elected Mr. Smith will administer the office honestly and justly. No white man in Ohio will suffer from any discrimination on his part. No colored man will be discriminated in anything he desires as an American in Ohio. Words sometimes are very fine, but alone they accomplish nothing. Votes are necessary to nominate Mr. Smith. Those who desire his nomination must get out and work for him until the primary closes Aug. 10. If this is done, we believe he will be the next secretary of state of Ohio. No grass must grow under the feet of his friends and nothing honorable must be left undone to nominate him.
The spelling contest at the Central bath house between students of Marion, Sterling and Brownell schools, will be held, Friday evening, Aug. 6. Prizes will be awarded. Contestants will hand their names to the bath house superintendent by Aug. 5.
HARRY S. DAY. Fremont, Ohio.
A Leading Candidate for the Republi can Nomination for State Treasurer.
The above is an excellent portrait of Harry S. Day, mayor of Fremont, O., who as an official and as a private citizen, has always stood ready to help our people in his own city. He is now a candidate for the nomination for the office of state treasurer on the Republican ticket and if you believe in helping one who has always stood ready to help our people then be sure to go to the polls and vote for him on Aug. 10th.

AS TO LEADERSHIP!
"The Old Reliable" Predicted Harding's Nomination and Predicts His Triumphant Election.
Hon. Harry Clay Smith, Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O.
Dear Sir and Friend: I have respected your judgement in many things, relative to the interests of the race and especially regarding politics. It is interesting to notice how you clung to Harding and predicted his nomination and then to observe how accurate you were. Your political foresight was excellent and should win for you leadership in politics for the race in this state. You did your part well and I for one am willing to hail you as such leader. The thing the colored folk of this country need is a political leader with the right devotion to the race, the proper fore-sight and judgement and such connections as will give to him influence. Selfish and small leaders must be relegated and big unselfish, race-loving men put to the fore.
We have been called to follow so many untrue leaders, who are only after "the loaves and the fishes," till we hardly recognize the voice of the true leader. It is unfortunate our folk must be disturbed and led off by such leaders and then left to flounder about and hold animosities against great men, like Mr. Harding, for no other reason than that some fellow was playing false. The Negro is rapidly learning what to do in the presence of this type of leadership.
One thing that has drawn me to your way of thinking on this race question is that you have stood for your convictions year in and year out in the face of persecution and discouragement regardless of what came. Only a man of conviction would and could do so. A true leader is one that cannot be easily turned by every wind that blows and who can suffer defeat for a righteous cause. Keep up the good work and you can count me among those who will be standing with you when the smoke has cleared away.
I was for Harding, I am for Harding and will be for him and the party.
Yours for uplift.
(Rev.) O. W. Childers.
"The Finest Document."
The daily newspapers of last Saturday carried many of the expressions of the leading men of the country wired Senator Warren G. Harding following the publication of his speech of acceptance. This was among the messages given out at Marion:
"Joseph C. Manning of New York: Your acceptance speech, finest document of that character I have ever read in my thirty years of public life. Warmest congratulations."
Thanks!
I want to thank all of the friends who remembered me and were so kind during the sickness and at the time while for the Schleimers, Tinners at Also those who are still trying to cheer my aching heart.

For the Republican Primary, Aug. 10—Attorneys Godman and Thomas Win a Great Victory—Our People Happy!
Special to The Gazette.
Columbus, O., July 16.—The name of Editor Harry Clay Smith, of Cleveland will appear on the ballots for the August primary election as a candidate for nomination as Secretary of State. The Supreme Court made this order today after overruling a demurrier filed, late Wednesday, by Harvey C. Smith, Secretary of State, to the editor's appeal for a writ of mandamus and after Secretary Smith had indicated his inability to fight the case any longer. Chief Justice Hugh L. Nichols, in announcing the decision, made the following statement from the bench:
"The demurrier of the defendant (Sec. Smith) to the petition of the relator (Editor Smith) having been overruled and the defendant now indicating that he does not desire to
sulted in the filing of protests against the candidacy of the Cleveland editor and the Elyria Smith. Hearings were called by the Secretary of State to act upon the protests. After the editor's hearing, Secretary Smith ruled that his name should not be placed upon the ballot. The Elyria candidate sent a telegram withdrawing from the race, and no hearing was conducted in his case. Attorneys Henry L. Thomas of Cleveland and Leroy H. Godman of Columbus, for the editor took the case into the Supreme Court on mandamus proceeding. Secretary Smith placed the editor's mind on the ballot. They obtained an alternative writ, returnable yesterday, ordering the Secretary of State to place the editor's name upon the ballot or to appear in court and show cause why the name should not be so placed.
Capt. Leroy H. Godman. plead further, the Court finds in favor of the relator and it is ordered further that the Secretary of State cause the name of the relator, Harry Clay Smith, to be printed upon the primary election ballot as a candidate for Secretary of State as prayed for in his petition.
"The suggestion that this cannot be done now because of the fact that the ballots have been printed, in our opinion, is not well taken for the reason that it is practicable that printed adhesive slips be used containing the names of all the Republican candidates for Secretary of State and the same be placed upon the printed ballot as to as to rotate as required by law."
Decision Very Important.
Decision Very Important.
The decision of the Supreme Court has the effect of establishing two important precedents in Ohio election matters. It overrules the long-recognized precedent that the Secretary State is the final arbiter of names of dispute concerning the printing of names upon a ballot and permits the use of "stickers" on the ballot. "Stickers" heretofore had been limited in use only in the case of a vacancy on the ticket caused by the death of a candidate. In the campaign preceding the presidential primary election in Ohio, the Secretary of State ruled against the use of "stickers" on the ballot when asked to permit the names of Herbert C. Hoover and Senator Hiram W. Johnson to be placed before the voters as candidates, by means of "stickers." Another effect of the ruling will be to abrogate the practice of leaving one blank space on each office for use in writing in names of candidates in an afternoon begin to send out letters to all Boards of Elections throughout the state with copies of the official "sticker" that must be attached to the ballots. They will be distributed to the various precincts when the ballots are distributed. The decision of the Supreme Court brings to an end of the most involved cases that has come up in state elections, and means that the voters at the August primary election will have three candidates to vote for.
Line Up of Contestants.
These are Secretary of State Harvey C. Smith, who is seeking renomination; Hilton Harvey C. Smith, petitioner in the federal audits, and Charles Q. Hildebrant, former Secretary of State. Secretary Smith was the first of three Smiths to file for the nomination last month. Later the editor and Harold C. Smith, of Elyria, also filed for the same nomination. Charges of "collision and conspiracy" to defeat the incumbent through a confusion of names were manufactured and re-

sulted in the filing of protests against the candidacy of the Cleveland editor and the Elyria Smith. Hearings were called by the Secretary of State to act upon the protests. After the editor's hearing, Secretary Smith ruled that his name should not be placed upon the ballot. The Elyria candidate sent a telegram withdrawing from the race, and no hearing was conducted in his case. Attorneys Henry L. Thomas of Cleveland and John W. McCormick the editor took the case into the Supreme Court on mandamus proceedings to compel Secretary Smith to place the editor's name on the ballot. They obtained an alternative writ, returnable yesterday, ordering the Secretary of State to place the editor's name upon the ballot or to appear in court and show cause why the name should not be so placed.
Demurrer Filed By Smith. Secretary Smith filed a demurrer to the petition contending that the decision of the Secretary of State was final in election matters. This demurrer was overruled, and Secretary Smith was ordered to appear in court this morning to contest the case. The court's decision was handed down when the Secretary indicated he could not go further with the case. The fact is he had no case, as Justice Jones and Wanamaker and Judge Jones and Wanamaker on Thursday afternoon when questioning the attorney general who was representing Secretary Smith. The court gave the attorney general 50 minutes to find Secretary Smith and confer with him, and ascertain if he had ANY legal ground for his persecution of the editor. Then when it was announced that the Secretary could not be found (about 5 p. m., Thursday), Judge Nichols, for the court, gave the attorney general until 11 a. m., Friday, to find Secretary Smith and ascertain whether he had such, incidentally remarking that a peremptory order would be entered in the case at that hour, Friday, and this was done. All the secretary's talk about "collision and conspiracy" was worthless as well as groundless, and even if true would not have been of any service to him in his contention. That the court made per-
Attorney Henry L. Thomas.
fectly clear also. The fact is that Attorneys Godman and Thomas had so carefully drawn the petition for mandamus and their answer to Secretary Smith's eleventh-hour demurrier that they simply "tied the Secretary in a knot"; and there was nothing else for him to do but acknowledge defeat at the hands of two Afro-American attorneys, two of the very best in this country today. Too much credit for the great and grand victory cannot be given them. The result is, for the first time in the history of the great state of Ohio or any other state in the north, our people have a bona fide candidate for the Republican nomination for an important state office. They can secure this great honor and practical benefit to the race, if they will but vote in large numbers at the primary, August 10. Will they do it? We shall see. Here is an opportunity we long have sought and heretofore complained because we found it not. Attorney General Price and his first assistant (attorney general) represented Secretary Smith in the Ohio Supreme Court.
Aftermath.

Cox charges that Senator Harding
has made his front porch a “listening

‘The listening post is far in advance
of the first line trench. Soldiers i.
lected for their bravery, coolness, and
yesourceftiness were assigned to the
listening posts during the war to col-
lect information as to the activities
of the enemy—whether he was mass-

PACIFIST COX.
It was Gov. Cox, the seeker after
German voies in this gate, who, only
a few months before we took up arms
figainst Germany, permitted his pa-
per to publish the following fervent
prayer for pacifism:
“God grant that the next arm lift-
ed to wield a sword so foolishly may
be paralyzed and that the brain be
stopped from thinking before it con-
coives of war.”
He was ready for his ‘own country
to suffer any indignities at the hands
of Germany rather than take up arms
in its defense. Now it is Gov. Cox,
‘the Presidential éandidate, who would
involve the United States in ‘every
war under the ‘sun, through the ac-
ceptitice of obligations in the Teague
en, covenant. He Witnessed
equapimity the murder of Amer-
Solin citizens on the high Seas by Gev-
‘man’ U-boats, but he shrieks with hor-
ror at the spectaclé of some’ of’ the
puny states of Murope settling their
‘affairs by foree, withiough not a single
American life may be endangered.
i
PART OF THE OMELET
“When thé Government took over the
railfoads of January 1, 1918,. they
owned about 2,260,000 freight cars.
Of that number 5.7 per cent were re-
ported in need of repair and unfit for
service.” It had been the custom of
the roads to purchase 100,000 new
‘ears each year to take the place of
‘those used up in the service, but dur-
ing all the two years and two months
of Federal control the Government
did not exceed that number of addi-
tions to the. rolling stock. Officials
of the roails declare that today there
are unfit for use and actually’ out of
service 50,000 cars more than when
Federal contro! began, and thousands
of other cars are kept running which
ought to be sent to the shops. These
are 8 few of the disheartening handi-
caps the road owners had to face
when they received their properties
back from the Government, It is a
fact, however, that in spite of adverse
cireumstances, the roads are moving
more freight under private manage
ment, this year, than they did under
Federal operation at ‘the same time,
last year. Given time to overcome
the obstacles to efficient management
that they inherited from the era of
Government control, the roads will
give the people a transportation
standard that could never haye been
approached had Federal officials con-
tinued to misdirect their affairs.

THE OHIO LIAR AND GRAFTER!
Our attention has been called to
the fact that some one has been send-
ing to race newspapers some very
malicious lies to the effect that the
Hon. Harry M Daugherty ‘had
‘‘double-ctossed” the editor of ‘The
Gazette, that Ralph W. Tyler was
helping our candidacy for the Repub-
icin nomination for Secretary of
See be ate editor of this
fought every prominent
Abo Maericat in te stale of Ohio
for the last twenty years, ete, What
is surprising to us is that any of our
confreres of the race press would
publish such a batch of Ifés about us,
especially when' they know the scur-
rilous writer of them so well The
same individual is wasting his time
“knocking” Senator Harding's candi-
dacy. How foolish and silly! He is
really not worth the attention we are
giving him and should be ignored.
HARDING AND COOLIDGE.
In their speeches of acceptance, last
‘week, Senator Warren G. Harding
said:
“I believe the Negro citizens of
America should be guaranteed the
enjoyment of all their rights; that
they have earned the full measure of
‘citizenship bestowed; that their sac-
rifices in blood on the battle fields of
the republic have entitled them to all
of treedom and opportunity, all of
sympathy and aid that the American
spitit! of fairness and justice de-
mands.” i
And Gov. Calvin’ Coolidge said:
“There is especially due to the col-
ored race a more general recognition
of théir constitutional rights. Tempt-
ed with disloyalty they remained loy-
al, serving in the military forees with
distinction, oe to the draft to
the extent of/hundreds of thousands,
investing $1 out of every $5 they pos-
sessed in Liberty Bonds, surely they
hold the double title of citizenship, by
biith and by conquest, to be relieved
from all imposition, to be defended
from lynching, and to be freely grant-
ed equal opportunitigs.”
Splendid! More and better than
any candidates for the Presidency and
Vice-Presideney of this coutitry, re-
spectively, have ever before said. But,
in the ense of the Senator, not one
word more or better than ve KNEW
he ‘would say and we promised our
people of the caiintry, long before the
reeent Presidential primary, he

Supreme Court of Ohio, and that your
name will go before the members of

State at the primary election, Aug.
10, ’20. I congratulate you upon your
vietory. Your courage in the enforce-

tion by all who believe in seeing that
‘all men are accorded equal and just
treatment and the Supreme Court by

you may wage a successful campaign

‘My Dear Old Friend:—Hurrah for

you also helped very much in pushing
him over, I never saw the convention
when the Negro figured so promi-
nently aml so favorably.
T also See where you are a candi-
date for Secretary of State. At your
earliest, give me such data as will en-
able me to make a “race drive” in
your behalf. I have been practically
out of polities for a few years but re-
enter for you.
When the assignments are ready
for “‘spell-binders” give me \the itin-
etary of the Negro spell-binders ax I
would like to have them “trek” this
way. The Negro must attempt as
never before to lead his own race in
the right way, this time, and not wait
for one day to have the white brother
“plaze the trail.” He is more than
ever conversant with all questions
pertinent to the welfare of the coun-
try and can “teach” instead of the

An earnest colored man from Okla.
homa, desires help from his colored
brethren of states where votes cast by
colored men are counted as cast
“Lily-whitism” in Oklahoma is ram-
pant and defiant. There is no real
plan laid to bring Oklahoma into the
Republican fold. Republican Na-
tional committeemen from the south
hold their jobs only to dispense pa-
tronage and aid in the candidacy of
some man who desires to be nomi-
nated president of the nation. These
white Republicans of the south are
in Teague with Democratic white men
of the south, to keep the franchise
away from the colored man, ‘The av-
erage white southern Republican is
a hypocrite. At heart he is more hos-
tile toward colored voters than Demo-
cratic white men of the south. Okla-
homa white Republicans don’t desire
colored men in the Republican party.
Unfortunate for colored men in the
south, they do not form ts own or-
ganizations of colored voters and win
their places by producing votes. Col-
ored men of Okiahoma and — other
southern states should organize them-
selves into Republican clubs, prepare
themselves to vote and make kn own
to the managers of the party, nat ion-
ally, that they have so many votas in
every congressional district and sc
many in the state. If white men want
supremacy in the party, let them dc
so by producing yotes! Elections ar
won by VOTES! and a state that
gives us no votes is of no use to us.
be it New York or Oklahoma. Col-
‘ored men should recognize the fact
that they are free men and act on
that basis, Build up strong political
Srganizations in their states and they
will get recognition. Our advice is,
get the votes and politicians will hear
you and heed you. Keep out of poli-
ties for the sake of a few dollars. Go
into politics to secure through the
government your rights, and while
fighting for them dread nothing in the
; of aman. If colored men
begin a propaganda and bring
very Negro voter in the south-
ites that should vote and pre-
im for the franchise, the na-
: Republican party would aid
. But so long as colored men of
ligence and influence will keep
iway from the polls and ‘discourage
others about voting, so long will
“Lilly-whitism” reign in Oklahoma.

Dix, barber in the Hollenden hotel shop, arrested, Friday, and held for Birmingham, Ala., authorities, was released, Monday, after a Birmingham police officer failed to identify him as a man wanted in that city in connection with a murder thirteen years ago. Dix, who had maintained he was not the man wanted, was fully exonerated by police. The man sought in Birmingham was James H. George. Dix was held when a guest at the hotel said he resembled the missing slayer, and should enter suit for damages against the man who caused his arrest.
Moses Cleveland will greet the pinchickers of Chicago, Detroit, Louisville, Indianapolis, Cincinnati and five states at Puritas Springs Park, Friday, July 30th. Don't get the date confused. Just one Woodmen picnic.—Adv.

Editor Ormonede A. Forte was a caller at The Gazette office. Wednesday afternoon, generously offering the free use of the columns of his paper, next week, and all other aid he could render our candidacy for the Republican nomination for Secretary of State. Thank you, brother! Sidney B. Thompson is making a "hot" canvass for a Republican nomination for the Legislature.
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.

Prime Sport News
By Allen H. Dorsey.
For seven innings, last Sunday, at Woodland Hills the Tate Stars and Schleimers were neck and neck but in the eight inning the Schleimers got busy and, thru several errors by the Tates and a couple of well placed hits, proceeded to sew up the game, Brady, the Tates' pitching ace, was not as effective as usual and was replaced in the eighth by "Rube" Henderson. Sharkey played a nice game, while for the Schleimers', Tinners at first and center fielder Webber were stars. Webber committed highway robbery when he captured Devoe's apparent triple in deep left center.
Argonnes Triumph:
The clever Argonnes journeyed to Collinwood, last Sunday, and easily triumphed over the fast N. Y. C. boys by a 15 to 4 score. The Argonnes are a bunch of youngsters who are able to give any team a tough battle.
Nacos Win.
The Naco Giants defeated Fear's Giants at Naco Park, last Sunday, in a fiercely contested game, 15 to 12. Free hitting abounded, with Roy Moore and Cisco, the "Schalk" of local baseball, leading the assault for the Nacos.
Live Notes
Pat Rogers and his hustling Argonnes will play Sell Hall's crack Amer, Giants at Pittsburgh, July 30 and 31; the Easterners at Columbus, Aug. 1st, returning home, Monday, Aug. 2 to meet Fearn's Giants at Puritas Springs.
The defeat, Sunday, showed the Tates to the second division. Now they must win in order to stay in the elimination series. This they promise to do.
The Nacos will be on hand with a strong attraction, Sunday, and are anxious for a big turn out of their followers.
The Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City, led by "Cannon Ball" Redding, head west next month 'Twill be some "red-bot" series when his team meets Rube Foster's gang. Redding says all the fans can get their shirts on his boys.
Lem Williams, old star of the Cuban Giants, is proving a very capable umbrella at the Nageo's Park.
As we expected Harry Wills put the kavye on Fred Fulton in the third round of their fight at Newark, Monday night. Wills soon showed his superiority and put his "Harlem lullaby" against the plasterer's team for the count. A great throng, numbers of whom paid $15 and $20 for seats, clamored around the arena. Now, Jack Dempsey!
The athletes, who will sport the red, white and blue shield in the red Olympiad, sailed for Antwerp, Monday. Among them were our boys, Sol Butler, Earl Johnson, Howard Drew and Benny Ponteau, the fighter.
Jack Dempsey, who was at the ringside and saw Wills put Fulton away, now says he will meet the former if the public shows a "real demand" for the match. Looks like he'd hedring, as a week ago he said bluntly he would meet the winner, as he needed the money.
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 January. DO YOU advertise? 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."

A CANDIDATE FOR SECRETARY OF STATE! THAT IS WHAT OUR PEOPLE OF OHIO HAVE!

M.
Member of the Ohio Legislature for Three Terms (six years). Files as a Candidate for Republican Nomination for Secretary of State—His Statement.
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. Hildebrand, 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 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 Hildebrant) 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. Supporters 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.
Senator Harding said to that delegation of the NationalEqual 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.
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! Proph-
3253
Pattern 3253 was used for this model. It is cut in 3 Sizes: 16, 18 and 20 years. A 16 year size will require $4\frac{1}{2}$ yards of 44 inch material.
Figured challie, with plattings of satin and collar of white batiste would be attractive for this design Taffeta, gingham, voile, organdie, poplin, chambrey, crepe de chine are nice too. The width of the skirt at lower edge is $7\frac{1}{2}$ yard.
A pattern of this illustration mailed to any address on receipt of 12c in silver or stamps.
3260
Pattern 3260 was selected for this style. It is cut in 3 Sizes: 16, 18 and 20 years. An 18 year size will require $3\frac{1}{2}$ yards of 40 inch material for waist and skirt and $1\frac{1}{4}$ yard for the jumper.
As here shown shantung in a natural shade and embroidered in white was used. This is a good model for batiste or voile. also for linen and gingham. Width of skirt at lower edge is a little over 2 yards.

I shall be glad to see as many Republicans as I am physically able to see; all Republicans look alike to me," said Senator Warren G. Harding.
"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.
"THINK AS A MAN"
Class is as fatal in intelligence as anywhore 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.

Ohio's Anti-Lynching Law
Leads the Country in Legislation
Against The Mob and Lynch-Murder—The Work of a Member of The Race —Also Ohio's Civil Rights Law.
Our mob-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It topp Hon. Harry C. Smith, the editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the law which has been very effective. Only one 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
Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2). Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such injury as per the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3). Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.)
Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent disability to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 162 5.)
Section 6282. The legal representative of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor children surviving such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v 162 6.)
Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by such a mob. (93 v. 162 6.)
Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7)
Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery is had, to include it with the costs of action, in the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.)
Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.)
Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal representatives of a person killed or seriously injured from any of persons composing such mob. A person present, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.)
Section 6288. If a mob carries a prisoner into another county, or comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the money involved from which the mob came, unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in
failing to protect such prisoner or dispurse such mob. (93 v 163 11.)
Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v 163 12.)
OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW
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:
Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barbershop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike for the purpose of 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 the penalty for the same, 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.

Of Interest to Women Readers
NEW NIGHT-DRESS SACHET.
To Be Suspended by Ribbons from the Head of the Bed.
A very novel idea for a night-dress sachet is shown in our illustration, which gives a suggestion for a shape which will make a change from the more ordinary one which folds over and fastens with a flap. The sachet stretched is made in the form of a deep pocket, and it is in-
tended that it should be suspended by wide satin ribbons from the head of the bed, so that it may serve a more decorative purpose than has hitherto been the case. The sachet itself is of white satin, embroidered with a wild rose and foliage design, worked in very delicate shades of pink and green, with a border of silk cord to edge the sachet throughout in a delicate shade of turquoise blue. Many other pretty floral lesions might be used in place of wild roses, and on grounds of various colors. Sprigs of apple-blossom would be effective, for instance, on a pale blue ground, or clusters of dark violets on white or green. They should, of course, be chosen to suit the draperies, etc., in the room.
THE GAZ WHO Might S
THERE'S GAY RIVIERA
AND A QUIET SISTER.
Over in Italy Flashiness of French Side Vanishes
The Riviera is something more than a geographical expression. It is a distinctly bounded state in the social atlas, a grand revision in the Rand McNally of paper bound fiction, a region of romance, Russian dukes, international intrigue, society adventures, conventional love affairs, starry skies and deep blue waters, gambling, health resorts and staggering hotel bills. It occupies a unique place in the world as the pleasure ground of all the dominant nations, where Europe goes when it has the price, and America when it feels socially ambitions.
The Riviera has a valid claim on all these distinctions. The skies are really starry, the Mediterranean is really blue, the titles of the Russian dukes are genuine, the size of the hotel bills leaves nothing to be desired. But there is something more to be found on that long stretch of southern coast, something besides wealth and fashion and the mingling of the real and the spurious in culture and aristocracy. Go east along the Rovera, leaving that part of it which lies in France behind, penetrate to the Italian Diviera, and you will find the same natural beauties less consciously exploited, more suited to the tastes of those who like their air and landscape undiluted with sophisticated diversion.
Leaving that section lying between Cannes and Mentone, where the gay life is concentrated, you come first over the Italian boundary to Bordighera, still populous with exclusive hotels, brilliant cafes and the villas of the wealthy. But go still farther eastward, passing Genoa, to what Italian call the Riviera di Levante, and you reach ancient Nervi a quiet and untitled little town, far from the crowd, perhaps too popular, as a health resort. Just a little farther, in such towns as Rapallo, you find at last the Riviera almost untouched and unspoiled, the daily life of Italy going on about you, the drives and walks still lonely except for passing peasantry, the soft tropic beaches still keeping the lure of the quiet sea, free from the glitter of overmuch convalescent and pleasure seeking humanity.
