ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25,1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since CLEVELAND, OHIO, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1920 An Assistant In Each of the Departments A National Conference Suggested-As To Segregation etc. Special to The Gazette. JERSEY CITY, N. J.—What is the colored voter doing to get from the incoming Administration that which is due him? Is there not the usual scramble for the few places that have been given colored men for the last fifty years? In addition to positions, what is now being done to secure for the colored citizens of America their share of America's benefits that accrue from the government? Registry of the Treasury, Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia, a few consulships and a collector of some port will not satisfy the real "American citizen of color, this year. We are not opposed to colored men holding the positions they have usually held but, we want, in addition to those, representation in the departments of the federal government. In every one of these departments colored citizens should have representation because it is the policy of this nation to overlook and wilfully neglect the interests of the colored citizens. We are entitled to an assistant's position in each of the departments. Under Mr. Wilson the South attempted to drive all colored men out of the mail service, especially those working in the states. We should have a days-man inside the post-office department. The war department has never done for the colored man what it should do. An assistant in that important branch of the government would inure greatly to the good of the colored soldier. The state department has never sold a colored man connected with it, but this administration should by all means appoint the most level-headed and courageous colored man it can secure to help guide this nation in planning for the welfare of the black races of the world. Negroes of the South are the backbone of southern agriculture. As a race we are primarily agricultural. In the agricultural department several men of ability should be appointed, so that a better day may come to the most satisfactory laborers of America. Negroes suffer more than any other class of American citizens from lynching and mob violence. Clean-cut representatives in the department of justice would materially aid the government in stamping out this iniquitous practice. Snobbery has been the attitude of the navy department toward the colored race. Our boys are taken into the navy only as servants. This should not be the case and so long as we sit by and do not plan to put an end to this wrong it will continue. Give us a fearless champion in the navy department who will bring before his chief the rights of the colored race in this particular department and we shall break down this ugly barrier to our naval rise. Not only in the departments should we have representation in all places where the government has to do with JOHN BOWLES REWARDED! Our Thirteen Legislators a Splendid Showing—Our Candidates for U. S. Senator, for Congress and Governor Defeated. COLUMBUS, O.-In spite of the miserable pamphlets filled with southern Democratic race-hatred and prejudice—breeding campaign lies, the election on the second of this month netted our people thirteen legislators, the best showing along this line in this section of the country we have ever been able to make and one that is most encouraging indeed. Following is the list: Illinois—A. H. Roberts, Warren B. Douglas, Chicago. Ohio—Harry E. Davis, Cleveland, Delaware. Illinois, Wintersboro, Missouri. —W. H. Pikes, Wilmington, Missouri —W. M. Moore, St. Louis, Pennsylvania —J. C. Ashbury and Andrew J. Stevens, Philadelphia. New York—J. C. Hawkins, N. Y. City. New Jersey—W. G. Alexander, Orange, California—F. M. Roberts, Los Angeles, Washington (state)—J. H. Rvan, Seattle. West Virginia—T. G. Nutter of Charleston and H. J. Capehart of McDowell. The Illinois, New York and West Virginia legislators were re-elected. This may be true also of one or both of the Pennsylvania legislators. W. Ashbie Hawkins, our candidate for U. S. Senator in Maryland, and J. R. Pollard, our candidate in Virginia; J. H. Blount, our candidate for governor in Arkansas; H. H. Price and Robert Owens, our candidates for Congress in Virginia and the 12th Missouri district, respectively, received a total vote less than that (61,081) given Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, a candidate for the Republican nomination for Secretary of adjusting conditions that 'touch the races of folk country.' We have been neglected and imposed upon and any race will suffer likewise if it has no one in the inner circle to contend for its rights. How are we to get these things? Thinking colored men from all portions of the country should meet and agree upon the basis of procedure, appoint a committee to wait on Mr. Harding before he is inaugurated, lay before him what we want and secure his approval of our course. Then let us bring pressure to bear upon our representatives, in Congress Dr. William A. Byrd and get them lined up with us, and then let us fight like demons until we get ours. Petty jealousies should be inside and the best interest of the race made the burden of all. There is also certain legislation that colored people desire and must have. We are sorry that the majority of colored people in the South have accepted the "jim-crow" policy as well as the segregation evil. Colored men of the north and east do not accept it. Southern whites have no authority over interstate passengers and yet northern colored-interstate passenger is humiliated and bullied every time he passes through the South. We are tired of it and there should be an amendment to the Cummings railroad bill which makes it a federal offence for any section of the country to interfere with interstate passengers. The supreme court has so ruled and we need the spirit of this ruling in the railroad bill. Let us get bury and do things and soop whining. (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd. State, at the Ohio primary, Aug. 12, 20. John H. Bowles of this city, the only well known Afro-American in the state to openly oppose Mr. Smith's candidacy, has been appointed to a position in the Secretary of State's office by Secretary Harvey £. Smith whom he supported when opposing the editor of The Gazette's candidacy. Pikeyville, Ky. Items Parkville, Ky. Our school which is under the management of J. Nelson Jade is doing excellent work. The report shows that the following pupils made "every day," the first four months: Edna Young, Vijia Pearson, Ernest and Mabel Justice, Mabel Sloan, Dedora and Lucille Johnson. Those present every day the fourth month: Jeff and Granville Owens, Homer Sloan, Josephine and Marie Johnson, Hester Pearson, Earl and May Belle Wilson and Gerlude McConnell. We are all jubilant over the great Harding victory. There was but one colored democratic vote cast in this county. A FINE ENTERPRISE Right in the heart of our largest local population, 3705 Central Ave., is located the fine, neatly-kept cigar store of J. B. Dennis, where everything of interest to the smoker can be secured. Mr. Dennis, who formerly was in business in Washington, D.C. is a cigar-maker and manufacturer, who thoroughly understands tobacco and this knowledge applied to his satisfactory "Enterprise" cigar has resulted in the great, popularity of that well-known brand. Mr. Dennis is a credit to the ever-growing number of our business and professional men. J. H. H. Founder of Poro. College—Member Missouri Republican Executive Committee—The Malones Wonderful People. ST. LOUIS, Mo.—A couple of years ago our people of the country were astounded with the announcement that Prof. and Mrs. A. E. Malone had completed and paid for a beautiful new building (for their Poro College) at a cost of $150,000. This week they are dedicating a $150,000 annex to that building. As was true a couple of years ago so it has been Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week—they sent for and have here to participate in the dedicatory exercises some of our leading men and women, among the number being Principal R. R. Moton, of Tuskegee, Ala. N. & I. Institute, president of our National Business League; Dr. Emmett J. Scott, its secretary and also secretary of Howard University; Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of the Gazette; Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, Mrs. Ornie M. Malone; Mrs Halie Q. Brown, president of our National Federation of Women's clubs; Mr. Lester Waltman of the N. Y. Age and others. This celebration is also the 20th anniversary of Poro College. Wonderful people are the MARY Malones. They have given many thousands of dollars to our churches, schools, charitable institutions throughout the country and to worthy needy individuals, etc. As chairman of the Afro-American Auxiliary of the Republican State Committee of Missouri, Prof. Malone (and Mrs. Malone) gave $1,500 to the campaign fund, *Just month*. On the 7th of this month Prof. Malone gave $3,200 to the Social Center fund at Quincy, Ill. his old home. He and Mrs. Malone had already given several hundred dollars to the fund. Since they have a competence they do not believe in boarding up wealth but in its intelligent use for the good of the many. More power to them and their kind. Won His Civil Rights' Case New York City—Kenneth Marceau, who is the treasurer of Keith's Alhambra Theatre, was on Nov. 15 convicted in the Court of Special Sessions of violating the New York Civil Rights law, which makes it a misdemeanor to discriminate in public places against people because of their color or race. The complainant against Marceau was Harold E. Simmelkjaer, the Afro-American court officer attached to the 7th Municipal Court. Our Washington Population Washington, D. C.—According to figures given out by the Bureau of the Census, there are in the District of Columbia 109,976 -Afro-Americans. That population constitutes 25.1 per cent of the total population as against 28.5 per cent in 1916. During the week, ended Nov. 6, 1920, thirty-nine of our people died, and only thirty-six were born. Our annual death rate here was given as 17.4 per cent. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS Orgy of Attack On Defenseless Southern Negroes Indulged In By Barbaric Rough-necks Nothing But the Strong Arm of the Federal Government Can Restrain the Inhumanity of Negro-Hating Man-Hunters in the Southern FRESH OHIO NEWS FRESH OHIO NEWS Special to The Gazette. NEW YORK CITY.-Savagery unrestrained is being vented as against defenseless colored people in the South and the orgy of attack is sweeping and wide in its unusually unchecked course. The avaricable rough-neck is riding in the open as a man-hunter and only a colored skin is essential to invite the white savage to merciless assault upon his unprotected and defenseless victim. Innocent colored women and helpless colored children are not immune from the blood-lust of the white rakes who rage forward and onward in their infamously cowardly brutality, while these scamps are as quick to burn sleeping tables in their homes as they are to shoot down the unarmed colored man and woman on the public highway. These soul-less, consenseless, heartless scoundrels, these "whited sepulchras" in the form of humanity, white of black and as the smut-stacks of hell within, are like smut-wolves set upon a stricken-down lamb as the shout and cry of "Negro" is set up by the man-hunting rough-neck. There is only one restraint to it all and that restraint is the strong arm of the federal government, and 1921; there will come into power an administration with the strength and courage to meet this condition. There will be those in au- thorny in Washington who will as quickly oppose the practices and cruelty of the "Hun" in Florida and in Georgia as have the American people revolted against the harrors of the "Hun" in other lands than our own. It will not be, after March 4th, an administration which gets its votes from "Hun" rough-necks in the southern states and in the very meantime indulging in verbal attacks upon "Hun" cruelty across the seas. This orgy of man-hunting in the south must stop! It will stop only when the federal government puts, a stop to it. And what the civilized southern people most need in self-help in stopping-this reign of barbarity is the right to vote so that they can select legislative and CADIZ—Miss Isabel Lucas has gone to Akron —Mrs. A.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1920. Steamers from Europe report that they are carrying full capacity of passengers. Third class passengers from Southern Europe are particularly in evidence. It is apparent that immigration is at its maximum at the present time, and that Congress will have to devise new restrictive legislation that will keep out all but the most desirable elements. The 32nd Annual Convention of the National Association of Railway and Utilities Commissioners has just been held at Washington. One of the committee reports was to the effect that public ownership and operation of railroads has failed wherever it has been thoroughly tested. On the other hand it was asserted that private ownership and operation, with suitable public regulation, was the "only just and honest manner of conducting the public utility business of this country." That is the opinion held by the great majority of the people. The big victory of Senator Harding was, in part, a protest against destructive government operation of the roads. Haiti's president did not and has not "crawfished" but was purposely misquoted by representatives of American daily newspapers. Haitians testifying before the Naval Court, "investigating" the record of wholesale and shameless and brutal murders and worse southern Democrats have made for this country in the little black republic; have given testimony that will not be successfully questioned. As Senator Medill McCormick wrote the N. Y. Hearst, Oct. 28, 1920, there must be "a real Congressional investigation" soon after March 4 next and there will be. Then and only then will the American people get the whole truth of this most distressing affair. Think of it, our high naval officers admitting the murder of 2250 of 3250 Haitians killed! Good Lord! HOW THEY WERE DEFEATED Replying to our esteemed confere, Editor Fred R. Moore of the N. Y. Age, we desire to say that there were seven Afro-American Republican candidate in Ohio during the recent campaign—six for the Legislature, three in Cleveland, two in Columbus and one in Cincinnati, and a candidate for coroner in Springfield. All were defeated, except one in Cleveland, as a result of prejudice aroused in votes of both parties by the distribution of southern Democratic literature which Democratic State Committees throut the North and in "the border states" circulated at the command of southern Democracy headed by Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi. Even Ex-Congressman and Gov. James M. Cox, who never dared make such a declaration before, "obeyed orders" and in a speech, made in this city during the closing weeks of the campaign, declared that "this was a white man's country." Prejudice among all classes in Ohio was at a low ebb (as the 61,081 votes the writer received, Aug. 10, 1920, when a regular, not independent, Republican candidate for the nomination for Secretary of State of Ohio attest) until this latest slanderous literature outburst in the North of southern Democracy. But for it, election results show that every one of our seven candidates would have been triumphantly elected Nov. 2, 1920. The defeat of Democracy should be laid primarily at the door of Woodrow Wilson. He is responsible for the notorious league covenant, which he chose to make the chief issue of the campaign, and on which his administration went down to defeat. He is responsible also, through the continuing in office of men of demonstrated incompetence, for the unheard of extravagance and general administration that has characterized his term of office. It is a well grounded principle that the head of an organization must answer for the acts of his subordinates. Burleson, Baker, Daniels, and the rest were put into office and kept there through the exercise of complete discretion by the President. He was under no obligation whatever to appoint such men in the first instance, and he could have removed them at a moment's notice, as he did Mr. Lansing, had he chosen to do so. But there they remained, squandering the country's wealth, and needlessly sacrificing precious lives. What they have done must be charged as the act of the President, and what odium those officials have brought upon themselves must be shared equally by Mr. Wilson. He is ill, which we all regret, but it must not be forgotten that his illness was brought upon himself through over exertion in attempting to foist upon the country the very thing which the voters have repudiated so overwhelmingly in the election of Senator Harding. He has been referred to by his private secretary and others as a "casualty of the war." He is a casualty of a devouring egotism, nothing more. It is apparently the purpose of his friends to make of him a martyr of history. But history will assign to him a proper place, and it will not be that of martyr. The Kaiser put up his own country as the gamble for the extension of his personal power. He lost. Woodrow Wilson staked the independence of the United States to win fame for himself. He has also lost. The Kaiser's downfall came only after the sacrifice of millions of precious lives. Happily Wilson's repudiation came before he could bring a similar catastrophe upon America. But the places occupied by the two men in history will be essentially the same. A Woman's Bank Leads! Richmond, Va.-St. Luke Penny Savings Bank, of which Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, a member of the race, is president, has just completed its 17th year. At the end of its first year it had resources amounting to $19,000. The bank has paid its stockholders $20,000 in dividends and $51,000 in interest to depositors. It has now resources amounting to a half million dollars and undived profits and surplus totaling $15,000. It is the only institution of its kind in the country founded and controlled by a woman.

It has been a most advanced step in placing the business of politics on the highest plane, and has brought an interest on the part of thousands who never before have been concerned with politics. Some weeks before election it was apparent that the expenses provided for in our budget, with the strictest economy, would exceed the contributions, but we were unwilling either to leave undone any legitimate effort essential to complete success or to change the method of raising money. We were then sure and we are now sure that every Republican desires that the expenses of the campaign be distributed in this manner. Your presidential campaign this year cost no more than that of 1916, when a dollar went nearly twice as far as it does today. Four years ago the bulk of the campaign fund came from 750 contributors, while this year the approximately $2,000,000 contributed to date for the presidential election has come from 50,000 givers. The victory won, the raising of the deficit would be easy, indeed, if your committee were willing to abandon the policy of keeping down the average of contribution. This we are determined not to do. It was a fight of all the people. The result speaks for itself. It lifted a burden from the minds of millions and points the way to better and happier days. We ask now for that additional help from all which is merited both by the successful conclusion of the effort and by the consequent contribution to the welfare of all of our people and the glory of the nation. Let us now have help from every American who is grateful for the victory and all that it means to the country. It might well be in the nature of a thanksgiving offering for the return to a certainly safe, same, constitutional progressive government. Let us by general and generous giving put the seal of approval upon the policy of putting a national administration in power free from any possible embarrassment of special obligation to any man, men or group of men. Let us make the contribution, whether large or small, and whether or not we have heretofore given, commensurate with our means and our appreciation, al ways within the maximum limit here-tofoe fixed. Let us get our names on the cornerstone of a sturdier political structure, upon the roll of those who have helped make possible a campaign of which, in methods and result, we may as Republicans and patriots be justly proud. Most earnestly we urge that this aid be given quickly, that your committee may be enabled to discharge the party's obligations and turn to further constructive work in behalf of party and country.

The editor of The Gazette was the guest of the pastor, Dr. L. H. Brown, at a Thanksgiving (turkey) dinner at Lane Metropolitan C. M.

Widlar, which went on Pancake shoals near Whitefish Point, Nov. 13. The crew called him their "hero" because he ventured across the buckled deck and, after narrowly escaping being washed overboard, brought forward food which he cooked on an improvised stove in the forward cabin, using bits of furniture for fuel. Stevens was the first of the crew to sight the rescue tug Iowa, the morning of the 15th. On Nov. 8th, about 65 guests were assembled at Mr. L. S. Jones', E. 101st St., to surprise his wife, Mrs. Vaughn A. Jones, in honor of her 50th birthday. Mrs. Dazalia A. Wade read several of Dunbar's poems, Mr. Bell of New Haven, Conn. sang two solos and Mr. Fred Berry read an original composition. A caterer served refreshments. Among the beautiful presents received by Mrs. Jones were several from her husband who also gave her a goodly filled purse ($100). The evening was most enjoyably spent by all. A letter received, last week by the editor of The Gazette, from Rev. O. W. Childers, former popular pastor of St. James A. M. E. church, this city informs us of the continued good health of him and his wife and that his work as pastor of Eaker St. A. M. E. church, Dayton, is moving on nicely and that on the last Sunday in October he raised $5,000 for his church building fund. The edifice was so damaged by the good that a new one to the free atmosphere says: "I miss the free atmosphere of Cleveland (the so much prejudice here and little courage on the part of our people) but I am doing good work." His host of friends will be pleased to have this message from him. Activities of the police in handling the court angles of the vice and gambling crusade were comparable, last Saturday, to a person who finds himself suddenly seated upon a red-hot stove. In presenting their cases in police court they made sure of the fact that they had enough witnesses to insure enough corroborative evidence required by law. This development ensured through friction between the police department and courts, when each sought to blame the other for the Z Douglas club flasco, in which seventy-one men, arrested for gambling, were discharged by Judge Sawicki because only one of the several policemen who raided the club appeared in court to give tangible testimony. In the Z Douglas club affair, Chief of Police Smith sought to blame the court and the prosecutor's office for failure to obtain convictions. Judge Sawicki and Police Prosecutor Stanton refused to stand for this, maintaining that the police had been lax in preparing the case and prosecuting it. The plaintiffs' testimony showed the officials of law and order resulted when Mayor FitzGerald demanded to know the reason for the Z Douglas club fizzle, when alleged gamblers were freed in court because of lax prosecution by police. NOW is the time for our ministers to demand of the mayor that the Central Ave. district be "cleaned" of the HUNDREDS of lewd women, many of whom are living UNMARRIED with men!

Those taking advantage of this special discount will get their photographs at less than last year's prices. Make an appointment now—it isn't a bit too early.

County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution. Our mob-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took Hon. Harry C. Smith, the editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into 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 permanently or temporarily disables the 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 in 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 the costs against it in favor of the legal repressors. In favor of the murder led or seriously injured by a mob from any of the 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 judgment and costs from the county 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 dispure 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 law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times uphold 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 obes used. i a representative of victim of lynching. jury by mob trying to lynch another. d costs in tax levy. i aust member of mob. i ast another county. 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, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodation offered for facilities 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 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. Do You Know Her? There is something of value at The Gazette office for Mrs. Lydia McKenney, former Mrs. Lydia Willis. This lady has lived at various points in Ohio-Cleveland, Dayton, Columbus and Cincinnati-or has visited them for slorr or long periods. Mrs. Willis-McKenney had relatives in Indianapolis. Any person having knowledge of her whereabouts will favor her greatly by writing the editor of this paper immediately. (Race newspapers, please copy.) THE MAN WHO DABES. "I honor the man who in the consecutions discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, tolerant 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 Summer. 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, mutilate, speak against right the wrong of many. Ells Wheeler Wiley. FACTS People who Advertise Can sell Goods. People who sell Goods Can make Money. People who make Money can advertise goods. The Best Advertising Medium is "The Old Reliable" GAZETTE. 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? Do you contact 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." New Away You and or an Acq THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, NOVEMBER 27, 1920 BLOOD TRANSFUSION. New and Meritorious Method Devel- New and Meritorious Method Developed by Two French Physicians. As is well known, medicine and surgery were greatly enriched by the practical experience of physicians and surgeons in treating sick and wounded fighters in the late war. Among the important discoveries was a method of healing wounds worked out by Dr. Alexis Carrel and the English chemist Dakin. This method which is now used extensively in America and Europe consists essentially in flushing the wound with a solution of hypochloride of soda combined with boric acid. The solution is placed in a bulb from which extends a tube terminating in several small branches. The smaller tubes are forced into the wound and the solution is allowed to flow periodically from the bulb through the tubes to flush the wound. Frequent microscopic examinations are made to ascertain what progress is being made against the bacteria. These micro-organisms of course are responsible for infections, for feverish conditions and for various fatal developments in wounds. When the microscope shows that the wound is practically free from bacteria the patient is regarded as well on the road to recovery. Sometimes in using this method hemorrhages occur and if the loss of blood is considerable the patient will die unless the blood is at once replaced by transfusion. Two French physicians have worked out a new method to meet such emergencies. By this method, we are told, the operation of transfusing blood has been greatly simplified and robbed of some of its most dangerous features. After applying a tourniquet above the elbow of the person from whom the blood was to be taken it has been the practice heretofore to tap the large vein in the lower arm and allow the blood to flow directly through a tube into the veins of the patient. Despite the greatest care this operation is sometimes a failure for one reason or another. By the new method the tourniquet is applied and the vein of the donor of blood is tapped in the same manner but the blood is allowed to flow into a vessel of some kind instead of flowing directly into the patient's veins. Citrate of soda is then stirred into the liquid to prevent coagulation and also to render it aseptic. Thus the difficult, delicate operation of connecting the veins of two persons is eliminated. The required amount of blood is readily obtained and the surgeon's attention may be given wholly to drawing the blood and subsequently to its actual transfusion into the circulatory system of the patient. CHEAT IS CHEAT. Weed Cannot Come From Seed of Cultivated Grain. There are many people who believe that under certain circumstances wheat and other grains may degenerate and produce the worthless, pestificous weed, cheat. As cheat usually grows with wheat and other crops, often appearing most luxuriously in spots where the seed sown has not developed into the desired species of plants, it really appears to the superficial observer that the weed comes from the seed of the cultivated grain. The scientist assures us, however, that this view is incorrect; not only is it contrary to biological laws, but actual experiments in the field have demonstrated that when wheat, rye, and the like, germinate and grow they produce grain of their own kind—never cheat or anything else. The Farm Journal discusses the matter authoritatively as follows: Wherever there is a weed that likes to grow with a certain crop, and which has about the same habits as that crop, except that it ripens seed a little earlier and sheds a good part of its seed before the main crop is harvested, there are people who are dead certain that unfavorable conditions will cause that crop to turn to that particular weed. In the rice fields of the South it is a very common belief that ordinary rice turns to red rice. In the winter oats district of the South oats are supposed to turn to cheat. In the winter wheat belt wheat is supposed to turn to cheat. Farther north, rye is said to make this remarkable change. Friends, there is nothing to it. None of these crops ever, under any conditions, turns into something else as different as cheat is from wheat. This matter has been tested thoroughly. Cheat comes from cheat seed. It can't any more come from wheat, or oats, or rye, than a chicken-hawk can hatch from a hen egg. One correspondent tells of a pasture that had not borne a crop for years. It was sown to wheat containing no cheat, and half the crop was cheat. This could only have come about by the fact that either the man who sowed the wheat was mistaken about the seed having no cheat in it, by the droppings of animals on the pasture after eating cheat seed, or by someone deliberately sowing cheat seed on the land. Other supposed proofs are to be explained in the same way. Writing is very puzzling to savages. In South America, one one occasion, a native was sent by a missionary to a friend with a note and four loaves of bread. The native ate one on the way, and was amazed to find that the note discovered his theft. On the next occasion that he was sent with four loaves he sat on the note while eating one of them.

Is Greatly, Exaggerated Demise is Greatly Exaggerated WILMINGTON, Del.-Alfred McGuire of this city is beginning to wonder whether the Government is "spoofing" him or whether they have a grudge against him. Since he was invalided home on the discharged list last January, having served with the Army, he has been notified four times that he was "dead—either killed in battle, died from wound, or deceased as the result of disease or accident. "Well, I see I am dead again," is McGuire's way of passing off the matter when he beholds a letter addressed to his mother bearing the frank of the War Department. The fourth notification of his death came recently, but as McGuire, and Mark Twain before him said, "The report of my death is greatly "xaggerated." The answer is that he answered either by McGuire himself or his mother. Notification has been sent to the authorities that McGuire is living, but they still insist on killing him off with clock-like regularity. The notices of his demise are also liable to obtain the information that he was a cook, a wagon driver, a Sergeant of artillery or any other such rank, while McGuire plaintively states that a man has to be killed before his rank is raised apparently, that he was "nothing but a buck private." McGuire fought during the St. Michael drive and was hit by a piece of shrapnel and was invalided home. After recuperating from his wound, which was not severe, he was discharged and began working for the Harlan shipbuilding plant. In addition to the telegrams, a letter was received from the Chaplain of the regiment telling Mrs. McGuire of the heartrending circumstances of his death, full details and a complete description of his surroundings, grave, &c., accompanying the letter. The Chaplain was from Germantown, Pa., and Mrs. McGuire wrote a letter to him, thanking him for his sympathy, but syaing she was glad it was misplaced, as her son was not dead, but very much alive. "Had a puncture, my friend?" asked the passer, with an air of interest. The chauffer looked up, and swallowed his feelings with a huge gulp. He turned to me, just changing the air in the tires.
