The Illinois Supreme Court Finally Hands Down a Decision in His Case. SPRINGFIELD, IL--After many month's waiting, the State Supreme Court handed down a decision, last week, in the well-known E. St. Louis "riot" case involving Dr. Leroy N. Bundy now located in Cleveland, O., where he is practicing dentistry very successfully. The doctor had been tried and convicted of murder in the lower courts where there was anything but a fair trial. The fact is the effort was to make him a "goat" along with several other unfortunate men of the race because of the death of several white brutes killed in the riot while they with others of their kind were THE NEW YORK TIMES killing and wounding by the wholesale men, women and even children of the race and this, too, without the slightest real prosecution. The decision of the State Court reversing the verdict of guilty of the lower courts and remanding it for new trial virtually settles the matter because no one ever exerts the E. St. Louis authorities to incarcer the needless expense of another trial of the Randy case in the face of this State Supreme Court decision. Then, too, it is not the rule to do so where there are practically no chances of securing a verdict against the defendant. Dr. Bundy's harrowing experiences ever since his arrest in Cleveland, several years ago, are still too fresh in the minds of our people of Ohio and Illinois particularly and the country in general to require further comment.

LOS ANGELES, Cal. — Walter "Duster" Mujls got his expressed chance at the colored White Sox again the other day, when he got another good trimming, 4 to 1. The White Sox hopped onto "Duster's" slants for nine lush swats, the Cleveland star appearing to have nothing that our boys could not hit. "Bullet" Rogan was in great form the Sox hurler allowing the star, leaguers, but two mealy hits. McNair's big hat was responsible for three Sox tallies. An enthusiastic crowd of three thousand saw the game. Score, 4 to 1. The E. Tech football team with Johnny Price, their star tackle, are on their way to the Pacific Coast where on New Year's day they meet Everett (Wash.) High, the champs of the West. We have no doubt Johnny will feature in the coming Tech triumph. "Impressible Phil" Fears threatens to have another good team, next year, using the Tate game in their absence. Phil is alike to Connie Mack in his ability to pick promising young ball players. The Bacharach Giants, with a star team of our players, seem to be having a hard time in Hawaii, winning games. Team work and science seem to be lacking, the old army game being their chief reliance. Cincinnati is to be represented in our western league during the coming season, the Cuban Stars having been transferred to that city as their home base of operations. A big event in the local basket game is the meeting between the newly strengthened Swastikas and the St. Christophers, the champions of New York at E. High school, the night of Jan. 6. Talladega College of Alabama, with a record of eight straight victories in football, claims the championship of the South. Among their victims were Tuskeguee and Clark and Atlanta Universities. Over at West Tech, bowers of athletes have been made happy over the announced intention of Teddy Hansbury to return to school, next fall. The effort now being put forth by Messrs. Tate, Lewis and their associates is a commendable undertaking that all of us should take pride in assisting. Athletics are gradually growing in popularity among our people and baseball is easily the most popular sport. We know of no better recreational activity in the warm weather season than to get out, in the open and urge worthy athletes on to victory.

Undoubtedly, beyond its recreational value, there is money in baseball and we should boost with our check-books as well as our talk. "Heraldo Commercial," Cuba's leading financial journal, gave some front space space to baseball—playing in Cuba and after discussing the "ex-orbitant charges for seeing the New York Giants and Babe Ruth," said Costello, a basketball wow monger at UCLA and the grand batters in the United States!" Senora Castillo is a brown skin! And, just to rub it in for the "Heraldo," Torriente, another brown skin Cuban ball player, well known in the U.S. A., after reading the article, made three home runs and a "Three Barger" which raised a delirium of hossanas to be heard forever by all baseball fans. The twenty thousand and more spectators of this unparalleled baseball feat, broke chairs, grandstand railings and voices; threw away hats, tore up their programs and the grass! They petted, patted, caressed and lifted Senor Torriente above their shoulders and paraded him hither and thither when the game was done! They showered bills upon him; that night they banqueted him across the way, but in front of the Crackers Hotel, and for weeks, he was busy waltzing with Amelia Sorg, the leading Spanish dancer in Havana; receiving diamond pins; money; belts with golden buckles; finest clothes; finest haberdasher; until now he is, besides being a crack baseball player, a ragtime millionaire! Mrs. Mattie Hunter entertained a happy party of holiday celebrators, Christmas eve. An elaborate collation was served, with "old time" egg-nog, prepared by the master mixologist, Ison. The house was beautifully decorated with holiday festoons, a wobblerfully contrived boat being suspended in mid-air, from which the guests were able to pull forth novel favors. Entrancing dance music was played by Gaines. The party lasted till about 3:30 a.m., all declaring Mrs. Hunter an ideal hostess. Among her guests were Mr. and-Mrs. Walter F. Hines, Mr. and Mrs. Geo.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS Wealthy White Woman's Confession That She Was Not Outraged by a Negro as She First Alleged FRESH OHIO NEWS FRESH OHIO NEWS No one who knew the inside of conditions doubted that the "Naval Court Inquiry" would exonerate the American marines that were accused of working havece with the lives of innocent people of that island. General Barnett had good grounds for his statements. The private investigations by others have borne out his accusation. The world receives the report of the mock trial with much incredulity. Knowing that many of our naval officers are not too friendly to Negroes and also that the spirit of the south had much to do with giving the marines "a clean bill of health" in this Haitian matter the majority of people are standing behind General Barnett and praise him for his righteous exposure of that brutal destruction of 3,250 human lives by American marines. The entire navy needs overhauling. Many of its officers should be removed and in their places men who are fair at heart substituted. Forced as it was to admit that unjustifiable instances of cruelty had been found yet it preferred to blacken General Barnett's reputation for veracity rather than show up the American marines in Haiti as they were and are. All of the marines may not be guilty, but we do know that the Alabama marine would not miss an opportunity to kill a colored man at the least preposition. He has been used to kill colored people in a bounty office, southern state and other southern state by the officer in Haiti with a coroner's jury. In Haiti with many of their southern generals over them, they still have no fear of being punished when a Negro is in the fight. Clearly the colored race of America does not accept the verdict of this "Naval Court." President-elect Harding would send when he comes into power, to send an other court which is not biased and sift the whole thing and give the world the inside. General Barnett, under another president, should request for his own justification another court to set upon this Haitian brutality and barbarism. The natives of Haiti agree with General Barnett, but that would not influence a court where southern white men had to render a decision. The hurry with which this court acted is prejudicial on the face of its findings. This whole affair in Haiti is nasty and revolting! The whole American regime now in Haiti should be removed as soon as possible. Between the backwardness of the natives and the prejudice and injustice of the Americans among them purporting to restore order, the Haitians are to be believed in preference to men who all of their lives have been taught to brutalize Negroes as a policy which CADIZ.—Jesse E.

URT INQUIRY Murders and Outrages a Farce man's Confession That intraged by a Negro first Alleged white people should follow. The marines that did commit unjustifiable crimes against the natives were not isolated cases but were a part of the whole regime that had decided upon a policy of action on that island. The insolence with which the American officials treated the President of Haiti and the other government officials, establish a policy of high-handed misrule on the part of Americans. We are not yet convinced of the innocence of the American marines in Haiti. An Instance of the Well-Planned Propaganda Mrs. Dandridge Robertson, wife of a wealthy Pittsburgh Oil magnate, confessed, according to recent news dispatches from that city, that her story of having been "outraged by two Negroes" was a fake and that what was done was her own acts whereby she sought to keep her husband home at night. Mrs. Robertson is sixty years old. This brings up the query, are white women to be believed in their stories about being "outraged by Negroes?" There may be a few instances of a real outrage but in the, majority of cases—say nine out of every ten—it is "a frame up." Anything a white woman desires to pull off, that is immoral, she can and then feign "attack by a colored man." Then white men, who in many instances are a party to the frame up, collect a mob of white brutes, destroy "Negroes" and then use the public press to exonerate themselves by crying "rape." The rape cry of the South has no existence in fact. White women who are criminally bent, carry out their wickedness and in most instances, with other white men whose faces are blackened, and then cry "Negro." It is fortunate for our people force was fair and impartial. Their forcing this rich woman to give herself the lie, whereby all colored men were freed of the nasty charge, a damnable reflection upon the honesty and reliability of white women, will cause all honest men in the future to weigh, unprejudiced, any and all statements made by them against our men. It is unfortunate for our race that injustice has reigned in this country so long, until any liar can accuse them and the country will generally believe it. It is high time that all courts of the land require white women, as well as men to establish without a reasonable doubt the guilt of all men accused by them. By white men staying home with their own wives at night, perhaps, other men will be spared much undesirable notoriety and false accusation. (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 1, 1921 Happy New Year to all of our read ers. All of the May Co.'s old patrons and many of the new ones know personally S. P. Muldrew, employed on the first floor, Ontario St. side. Christmas, he rounded out 30 years in the employ of the company and is good, apparently, for as many more years of the same splendid service he has given it and its hosts of patrons. There is no more energetic, conscientious, obliging and competent employee in that great store than Mr. Muldrew, and we say this after being a patron of it ever since it was first opened on the other side of Ontario St. by the E. R. Hull Co., more than 30 years ago. There are, too, several other old employees of the store, who while they have not been in its employ as long, are most efficient clerks and fine fellows, particularly the two older clerks at the men's shirt counter, Ontario St. side, first floor and Frank Macourek at the men's hat counter. There then are our good friends, Mr. Carlson, in charge of the men's furnishings departments and our long-time friend in charge of the men's shoe department who has been in the employ of the store ever since he was a lad. They do not find more genial, efficient and energetic managers anywhere in the country. Employees of the caliber of those referred to in the foregoing are not "as numerous as the sands of the sea" and Supt. Gross of the May Co. will tell you so, too. More power to them! HAD ENOUGH OF DEMOCRATIC RULE We desire to add our approval to the position taken by the Hon. Joseph C. Manning "that this is no time for the Republican party to share with Democrats the responsibility of the federal government." Democratie inefficiency and deliberate wastefulness drove many self-respecting Democrats to vote the Republican ticket, last November. The Republican party must give the nation a real administration, famous for its honesty, efficiency and square-dealing with all races. The milk and cider Republicans who desire to flirt with Democrats may appropriately do so by joining the Democratic ranks, but Senator Harding, a Republican Senate and House, must give the American people a responsible government, at home and abroad. The Democratic party was emboldened to bring into the North its propaganda of "White Man's Country" and through this attempted to defeat Mr. Harding. That assinine party-management, under senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi, circulated throughout the North the most venomous political poison ever dreamed of. The Democratic party, instead of participating in the running of this administration, should be forced to purge itself of the Pat Harrison, Hefflin and Hoke Smiths. Back of the lawlessness and lynching of the South, stands Pat Harrison, Hefflin and the other Negrohaters of that section of the country who by their vicious propaganda drive the irresponsible white murderers into any and every form of lawlessness. These lawless hordes are granted immunity under the Democratic regime of the South. It is time to cut down the southern representation as required by the U. S. constitution so that its influence in the national government will be nil. A white man's vote should be no more powerful in Georgia than it is in New York. The same number of votes should be required to elect a representative to the national Congress in Mississippi as it does in Ohio. When a condition exists that nullifies this principle, then the country is responsible for its change so that justice can be maintained everywhere. Many well-meaning men of the race, but sadly misguided, are opposing this cutting of southern rep resentatich. The time has come for the nation to disregard their objections and proceed to do the thing that is right. We believe the ballot should be given on equal terms to every citizen. ONE-MAN GOVERNMENT. The certainty of the ultimate failure of one-man government is impressively emphasized by that eminent historian Edward Gibbon. In his account of the beginning of the decline of the Roman Empire he tells us that if a man were called upon to fix the period in the history of the world during which the condition of the human race was most happy and prosperous, he would without hesitation name that period in the history of Rome when the empire was governed by absolute power under the guidance of virtue and wisdom. He remarks, however, that although the labors of emperors then in power were overpaid by the immense reward that inseparably waited on their success, by the honest pride of virtue and by the exquisite delight of beholding the general happiness of which they were the authors, yet, "they must often have recollected the instability of a happiness which depended on the character of a single man." The people of Rome, accustomed to a one-man government, with the legislative body subservient, were in no position to cope with the ignorant and vicious tyrant whose reign marked the beginning of the end of the Roman Empire. The American people may well congratulate themselves and feel a renewed confidence in the perpetuity of American liberty with the inauguration next March of an administration which rejects both the semblance and the reality of one-man rule, and brings to the administration of the affairs of the government the best minds and highest characters available for the promotion of the general welfare. It is not necessary to characterize Woodrow Wilson as vicious in order to show the fallacy of his theories of government. He came to the highest executive office in the land almost entirely ignorant of the affairs of the people whom he undertook to govern. He had never been in any way associated with productive industry. He had never earned his bread by the sweat of his brow. He had never been engaged in trade or in any competitive enterprise. His life had been confined chiefly to the schoolroom where autocracy reigned supreme. It was not to be expected that a man possessing his unsurpassed egoism, his unreasoning prejudices, and his unyielding stubbornness could be transformed in the twinkling of a eye from a man of such human infirmities to a divinity capable of administering with both virtue and wisdom the complicated affairs of a hundred million people. It is not at all surprising that a man of such aggressive self-conceit should surround himself largely with men of incompetence and that as a result the business of the government was conducted efficiently and extravagantly with a steadily growing encroachment of bureaucracy upon the legitimate activities of private initiative and enterprise. Not only in the methods pursued in conducting his campaign for election, but in the frequent conferences he has since held with prominent men of all sorts of economic views from all parts of the country since the election, Mr. Harding has given cause for reassurance to the people of the United States relative to the future of private business and public welfare. Although his public and private record have demonstrated him to be a man of the highest character and of training which fits him in an unusual degree for the administration of the public business, yet he does not purpose to place this country in the position described by Gibbon in his story of Rome's decline, "the instability of a happiness which depends on the character of a single man." DOINGS OF THE RACE The Jeffrey Mfg. Co., of Columbus, recently gave $2,000 to the Urban League of that city. This company also employs Harry Alexander in one of its most important offices in its book-keeping department—a first class position. A Texas mining prospector, who recently returned to this country after two years spent in the Belgian Congo, was reported as giving one of his reasons for leaving that part of Africa his inability to stand by and witness the atrocities still perpetrated upon the natives. It was still the custom of the Belgian officers, he declared, to capture and hold chiefs of the Negro tribes and force them to bring in natives to keep up the supply of laborers. There was no ill treatment of laborers on the coast, but he had seen natives flogged severely, some receiving 120 lashes, and he knew of some natives dying from the punishment. And yet it was Belgium that complained so bitterly of the cruelties practiced during the German occupation. Evidently the Golden Rule is not practiced by the Belgians in the Congo.—N. Y. Age.

(Race newspapers, please copy) THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, JANUARY 1, 1921 HIGHWAY UNDER HUDSON. Gigantic Tunnel For Underground Vehicular Traffic To Be Constructed At A Cost Of $12,000,000. A MODERN WONDER SUB-ROADWAY WILL ATTAIN A TOTAL LENGTH OF 8009 FERT NEW YORK—In place of a proposed suspension bridge which, according to preliminary specifications and estimates of present-day prices of material would cost approximately $72,000,000, the people of the states of New York and New Jersey have decided to construct, for vehicular traffic exclusively, a great tunnel under the Hudson River, at a cost said to be about $12,000,000. This proposed roadway has been denominated the largest sub-aquous corridor of vehicular traffic in the world. It is expected to connect Manhattan island, at Canal Street, with Holokee, New Jersey, at Thirteenth Street, and will attain, with its approaches, a total length of 9000 feet, with a diameter, as now planned, of 42 feet. This, it is said, will provide for a two-deck highway capable of caring for three lines of traffic in each direction, affording opportunity for the passing of 100,000 vehicles every day. This it is estimated, will equal the capacity of 72 ferry boats similar to those now in use between New York City and the railway terminals on the Jersey shore for the transportation of freight in bulk and the transfer of coaf and other commodities in car lots. When it is remembered that but one important railway system it at the present time able to maintain freight terminals in the city of New York, and that approximately 5,500,000 people are dependent, at some seasons of the year, upon the daily delivery of foodstuffs and fuel by means of the inefficient ferries and lighters now in use, the necessity of providing some means of transportation free from uncertainties is at once apparent. In the winter of 1917-18, when many section of the United States were facing or experiencing coal shortages, New York City, within a rid of of the coal mines, coal fields, and with hundreds of carloads of coal tied up at terminals just across the river, was for weeks almost without fuel and the same conditions which made the transfer of these cars for use in New York impossible applied to the entire New England section. Now it is proposed that within two years, by the construction of this mammoth under-river artery, all possibility of freight congestions, so far as New York City is concerned, shall be obviated. So down into the soft silt, fifty feet below the bed of the Hudson River, men will go with compressed air devices which will force aside the deposit of uncounted centuries. Following will come the institution of a firm and secure pathway which will be made into a modern highway, lighted and ventilated, and regarded as safer for traffic as the ordinary city street. Such undertakings, if proposed, at all, were not, of course, always possible. It is, only thirty years since the first tube under the Hudson River was begun. Many delays were experienced in its construction, because of both mechanical and financial difficulties, and the tunnel under the East River, in New York, was completed before the Hudson tunnel, although work on it did not begin for some time after the starting of the original project. The construction of the first tube was delayed for years, due in part to a "blowout", which allowed the finished portion gradually to fill with water. The tube, finally completed, became one of the so-called McAdoo tubes. Since then, or within the thirty-year period, many improvements have been developed both in the machinery used and in the methods of construction. WHERE PICKPOCKETS DRAW THE LINE That the pickpockets are not seekers after notorious was convincingly demonstrated when Tom Mix attempted to induce one of the light fingered fraternity to pose before the camera as a type necessary to the production of "High Speed," his latest picture... Enlisting the coopération of Captain Dan O'Brien, of the San Francisco police, Mix picked out a man in one of the cells of the station house and offered him a substantial sum if he would appear before the camera. "What!" yelled the pickpocket. "Mug me in front of a movie camera? Nix on that stuff! Every guy to his trade. You stick to your knitttin' and I'll stick to mine. I ain't gonna have my mug flashed on any screen so a million coppers all over the country can lamp it. I never had no use for actors, anyhow." Three other pickpockets evinced a similar violent disinclination to enter motion pictures, and Mix (the actor) became a professional actor for this role. HELD IN STORAGE 25 YEARS DETROIT—Agents of the investigation branch here of the Department of Justice said that in one cold storage plant visited recently, a frozen hog was found which, they were told, had been in storage 25 years.

In Paris too, at auction of 1907, there was knocked down for $200 the very carriage in which had been driven to the Elysse, to the Opera and to the Theatre Français not only the Czar of All the Russians but the sovereigns of Portugal, Spain, Sweden and Norway. And, moreover, the Shah. Collectors and the vanity of vanities! There went once $7,500 for a chair in which Washington and Jackson had sat; $450 for a letter from Mary; Queen of Scots; $600 for the bath in which Marat died. Yet the manuscript of the report to the Congress on the treason of Benedict Arnold yielded on sale but $250. Hair of Nelson, sold on two occasions, brought $25 for twenty-four spears—count 'em!- and $250 for nine, while a nice little lock from Wellington's scalp produced but $7.50. Byron on hair is quoefed at $95 a lock, Napoleon anywhere from $5 to $100. Kant's wig sold for $30, Sterne's for $1000. Altogether, relies and the collection thereof form a most uncertain business. They belong to specialists rather than to practical men. Or to preachers who may buy princely bedsteads professionally to find whence the uneasy lying of crown-wearing heads. There is better profitering these days in soup meats and salad stuffs than in souvenirs. NEW AND CURIOUS STAMPS London Collectors Delighted With Late Issues From Smaller Groups LONDON—Stamp collectors, of which London has its full share, are enthusiastic over the curious stamps which are beginning to reach them from the smaller European States. One example from Lithuania is of the first permanent issue of that country. It has been lithographed on heavy Silurian gray paper, formerly used for the printing of bread tickets. Lettland, Lithuania's neighbor, prints its first stamps on the backs of German ordinance maps, but these proved a little unwieldy and now its stamps are printed on the filmsiest of cigarette papers. Szechoslavia stamps recently received here are simply the united arms of Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia with the inscription "Ceskoslovska Statin" printed on the Magyar stamps. They were issued when the Czechoslovak troops invaded Hungary. The disputed port of Fiume has been provided with a striking series of pictorial stamps, apparently in anticipation of an Italian mandate, that all bear the words "Fiume proclaima I amissance all Italia" and the date 30-10-1918. The four designs include the statue of Romulus and Remus fed by the she-wolf, the piazza of St. Mark, an ancient Venetian galloon and the portrait of Dr. Crossick. ADMIRAL MAYO AND THE CHAUFEFUE In the year 1017, Rear Admiral Mayo, in the course of a cruise through the heart of London, essayed to capture a taxicab in the neighborhood of the Nelson statue in Trafalgar Square. Now it was by no means easy in wartime London to persuade the independent aristocrat who tooted a taxi to pay any attention to you, whether you boasted the strawberry-leaves of British nobility or whether you wore the garb of a high officer of the American Navy. At length ...e Admiral gave it up, and at a hotel secured a promise that a cab would be on the scene in a jiffy. The driver took own time, and the Admiral remarked, not in a quichion way, but more for the sake of a conversational opening: "I've been kept, waiting ten minutes." "That's ball right, guvnor," responded the man on the box affably. "Jump right on. You fellows have kept us waiting for three years!" BOOZE FROM CHOCOLATE URN MANCHESTER, N. H.-Whether it be war-time prohibition or just plain State prohibition, Manchester manages to get its little taste of alcohol, even through the medium of the hot chocolate urn. Police Inspector Gorey and Officer Pitman dropped into a confectionery store conducted by Arthur Vasil and found hard cider flowing freely through the chocolate urn. Upon investigation through the cellar the officers found two men "dead to the world" asleep in a coal bin. One of the men claimed that he had four drinks and it was enough. Vasil was found guilty, but he appealed and was held in $400 bonds. CAN'T AFFORD TO MOVE NEW YORK—New Yorkers may find it cheaper to pay increased rent then to move this fall. The cost of moving is emulating the well known H. C. L. and soaring skyward. Real estate men say moving costs are already acting as a deterrent on people who have been in the habit of moving once ore twice a year. The cost of moving is being surrendered this year as compared with about 50 per cent, in former years. 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 drown. Joseph C. Manning.

"I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may beverted, 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 WHONG. To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance, and lust, the Inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare, must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many. —Ella Wheeler Wilcox. 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 fellow 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 degrades: 'Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot. —Cowper. 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? You cannot be more 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."

GOD .BLESS .MEDIOCRITY. Its Importance Often Overlooked By Efficiency Enthusiasts. Of all Mother Nature's gifts to man, mediocrity is the least appreciated and the offenest rejected by those to whom it is bequathed. Yet what a blessing it is—the real savior of the world! For can you conjure up a picture of what this world would be like if people only by geniuses? No hair-cuts, no shoe-shims, no good-grooming-in-general, with all men pro-whiskered and all women anti-fashion. And no loose change for the "movies" and the roof-gardens—if such things existed. And there would be no critics, for only the mediocre mind can demolish the masterpieces of the genius. And there would be no children—only infant prodigies who at birth could pass an examination in eugenics. No toy factories would flourish; no juvenile games be played, for the young would devote their time to the fine arts. And there wouldn't be garrets and basements enough to go around, and no people commonplace enough to build more. Which brings to mind the ordinary word of the world, and the question, "Who would do it?" For the genius couldn't stop his "creating" to measure off ribbon, sell pants, or cut steak. Neither would he know how to raise the corn, to feed the steer for beef, nor how to grow the wheat for bread. And there would be nothing for the heavy-headed philosopher to philosophize about if there were not mediocre folk to keep things from going to the— So, after all, this merry old world owes her prosperity—and other conditions—to Mediocrity.

OF FAR REACHING EFFECT INVESTIGATION SHOWED THAT GIRLS BOUGHT FINERIES AT THE EXPENSE OF NECES-SITIES MELBOURNE, Victoria—Delivering judgment in the Federal Arbitration Court on the basic rates and hours in the clothing trade, Mr. Justice Higgins, the president of the court, fixed the rate for men at 65s a week, and for women at 35s. In doing so he gave an interesting analysis of the cost of living for women employed in the clothing trade. This judgment will have a far-reaching effect. Mr. Justice Higgins pointed out that there was no serious difference as to the basic wage for men, in the industry. Both sides had accepted his finding of 1907 for Melbourne of £2 2s. a week, with the additional increase due to the higher cost of living; the last report of the Commonwealth statistician had given 65s, 6d, and he proposed to award 65s. The question of the basic wage for women was much more difficult. His problem was to find what was necessary to satisfy the needs of a youth female employee who had to support herself and meet the reasonably necessary requirements of a woman living in a civilized community. Seven women, members of the union, he said, had estimated their average expenditure at £1 12s. 1½d a week. It was significant that any little indulgence of vanity in dress was at the sacrifice of other things. For example, one girl who spent on dress and adornment £3 18s. 2d a year, more than her wages seemed to justify, allowed nothing for amusements, lodge, toilet requisites and church. From the evidence it appeared that most of the girls shared a room with other girls, as they could not afford to pay £1 2s. 6d a week for board and lodging without laundry. It was also their general practice to make their own dresses. If the girls would have their finery at the expense of other things more necessary, that was their business, but probably it was not air to force employers to allow them to english style as being necessary for human requirements. At the same time they must not forget the important social function of girls' dress as a bulwark for self-respect, and it was for women who could afford it, to show the way of simplicity and good taste. The Sydney Board of Trade had fixed the rate at 30s., said Mr. Justice Higgins, and in the present case the respondents had proposed 32s. 6d. If he raised the basic rate for women on the same ratio as that for men it would be 36s. 3d. He would fix the rate at 35s. Dealing with the unions' urgent request for a 44-hour week for women, Mr. Justice Higgins said that any departure from the usual standard of 48 hours was of such far-reaching importance that he felt the need of more searching inquiry. At his request the government has appointed a woman to report as to her for women. This woman had recently returned to Australia, had been employed by the British Government to supervise the employment of women munion workers. BABIES' HOTEL The babies' hotel is becoming a feature of the English national life. There is one at Bexhill, and there is another at Hampscad, and more are to follow, according to the Manchester (England) "Guardian" Parents are strictly excluded, and the babies engage rooms, subject to the control of nurses and governesses only. The indignity of the highchair is past, and it is the grown up who has to adapt herself to the new nursery lines. Pure milk is, of course, a shibboleth, and spades and buckets and sand are specialized in. The babies' hotel grew out of the war, then they were given up and a great many mothers took to work. But time brings its revenges. Now that Olympian Europe has ceased quarrelring and would like again to have their babies respectably at home, the babies themselves have made other arrangements, and receive their parents on sufferance only. FIRST DAYLIGHT IN 15 YEARS GRASS VALLEY, Col—Forty mules, some of which recently had their first glimpse of daylight in ten or fifteen years, returned to the underground working in the Empire and North Star mines here after a brief sojourn in the open. The mules's "visit" to daylight resulted from the miners' strike here recently. The mine pumps were stopped and as the water began to fill the workings it was necessary to bring the mules to the surface. They had been used in hauling ore cars on the different levels. Many of the mules, through the influence of their keepers had cultivated a taste for chewing tobacco, and some were said to have mads known their desire for their daily "chew" by being intractable while on the surface if it was denied them. A Difficulty. "Be optimistic. There is really no black obstacle to progress." "Have you ever been in a trolley car held up by a coal cart?" NEW YORK—Liquor sellers who are holding on to their licenses in the hope of an end of war time prohibition before constitutional prohibition begins, may well be aghast at the sending of a saloonkeeper on Center street to jail for six months for selling a single glass of whiskey to Federal agents. The case is enlightening also because this defendant was convicted by a jury on evidence that at least left a loophole for the jurors to exercise their prejudice in favor of liquor selling if they had any. The Federal agent ordered whiskey, then poured his drink in a vial and took it away. A chemist swore that the liquid in the vial "contained alcohol" and other witnesses added that it also killed whiskey. In three thrown out cases, much stronger evidence than this where feeling ran high in prosecutions under State prohibition laws, but this New York jury convicted quite as readily as it would have done in a case of incarcerity. STOLE SPOONS FOR HIS WEDDING DENVED, Colo.—A wedding feast without spoons would be no wedding feast at all. So at least thought Harry Huck, when he planned to enter the matrimonial state. Brought before Justice of the Peace Henry Bray, Huck testified: "I took the spoons from St. Mark's church and used them at my wedding. I intended to return them, but was arrested before I could do so." The complaint was brought against Huck by Edward M. Sparhawk, custodian of the church, who added: "And he even had the nerve to come down and borrow $5 from me to help defray the expenses, while the spoons and forks were $15 pocket." Huck spent his honey-moon in jail. BLAST REVEALS RELICS LOS ANGELES, Cal.-A mortar and pestle, said to have been used by the North American Indians for grinding grain, were brought to the courthouse by J. W. Reagan, flood control engineer. The implements were unearthied by a blast, which cleared away a large section of rock and earth on the site of the Devil's Gate dam, now under construction across the Arroyo Seco, northwest of Pasadena. The mortar was in perfect condition, but the pestle was broken in three pieces. PREACHES IN SHIRT SLEEVES LOUISIANA, Mo.—The Rev.

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. (98 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.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of Hom. Harry C.

JANUARY 1, 1921 A franchise has been assured in the Western Colored Nat'l League by Pres. A. Rube Foster and the Board of Directors. The teams in this circuit have been making big money. One western club is well and truthfully known to have made over $30,000 this year while another club is commonly known to have made over $45,000 in the past two years. A well-known and strong bank has been secured as depository for all funds. The Secretary-Treasurer, as handler of all funds, is bonded by a big bonding company. except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Who or whom violates the most proximate 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. BIG WASTE IN SKIMMED MILK Cream Not the Only Desirable Or Nourishing Constituent of Milk. RICH IN FOOD ELEMENTS Compound of Skimmed Milk and Vegetable Fat Now Being Canned and Sold—Powdered Skimmed Milk Also on the Market. Although the United States has about 23 million dairy cows which produce an aggregate of about 87 billion pounds of milk annually, a large percentage of our population—in many instances the people who need the nourishment it supplies most—don't get enough milk. Of all the foods available, milk is the only one that comes anyway near supplying all of the elements essential to sustain the human body in normal health. As every schoolboy knows, milk contains fats, protein, carbohydrates and mineral salts, all of which are necessary for the growth and repair of animal tissues. In addition, scientists have lately learned, it contains the important elements called vitamins, which in some mysterious manner promote growth and help to keep the body in health. Yet only a little more than half of the 87 billion pounds of milk produced yearly is used as human food in the form of milk, cream, butter, cheese, buttermilk, etc. According to Government figures, a little more than 43 per cent of the total production is sold to consumers as whole milk; calves get more than four per cent of the whole milk; four per cent is made into butter; five per cent is made into cheese; nearly four per cent goes into ice cream; about three per cent is condensed or evaporated. Less than one per cent of the skimmed milk is used as human food, while a little more than 36 per cent is used for feeding hogs and other live stock, or thrown away; in some of the big cities, it is declared, thousands of gallons of skimmed milk is dumped into the sewers. This is a terrible waste for, though skimmed milk is by no means so nearly an ideal food as whole milk, it is rich in important food elements. In fact, it is analogous to meat from which the fat has been removed. That is why one authority speaks of it as "liquid lean meat"; he declares it would be just as wise to eat the fat of meat and throw the lean away as to remove the cream of milk and discard the skimmed milk. SAFETY AND PROFITS A franchise has been assured in the Western Office. Pres. A. Rube Foster and the Board of Directors this circuit have been making big money. And truthfully known to have made over another club is commonly known to have made the past two years. A well-known and secured as depository for all funds. The as handler of all funds, is bonded by a ARS BAS 2922 CENTRAL AVE. Creameries buy only the butterfat and turn the skimmed milk back to the producers, who usually feed it to their hogs. It is an excellent food for these animals, yet experts tell us that its relative value for the purpose is only about 50 cents per hundred pounds. For human consumption its value is three and a half times as great. Therefore, if milk producers could find the right kind of market for all of the skimmed milk returned to them by the creameries it would add something like $600,000,000 to their incomes annually. Consumers should be educated to the fact that cream is not the only desirable or nourishing constituent of milk. Skimmed milk, supplemented with other foods, is a nourishing, valuable article of diet. The product could be bottled and sold as well as whole milk if consumers only understood these facts and would buy it. A compound of skimmed milk and vegetable fat, practically equivalent to the whole natural milk, is now being canned and sold to some extent. Skimmed milk reduced to a dry powder and sealed in airtight cans is also on the market. These are practically equal to whole milk for cooking and other purposes. The preparation of these products as well as other enterprises aiming to make more milk available for food purposes should be generally encouraged. CHINESE AND JAPANESE. Statutes Governing Their Exclusion From This Country. By the provisions governing the immigration and citizenship of Asiatics, Chinese immigrants have been excluded from this country since 1883. A number of Chinese students, travelers, teachers and officials, however, are admitted every year. Section 2169 of the U. S. revised statutes limits naturalization to allens being free white persons and to aliens of African nativity or descent. Under this section the courts have denied naturalization to Afghans, Hindus, Malays Chinese and Japanese. Children of these races born in the United States, however become citizens under the constitution. Wartime Invention, Now Perfected, Is Efficient Weapon of Offense. A gun to fire through the propeller shaft of airplanes was designed by American engineers to be used by the United States army in the World War. Like several other valuable wartime inventions, however, it was not developed to a practical stage in time to be used in actual combat. The gun's jacket fits inside the shaft of the propeller. The gun which has a bore of one and a half inches hurls its arm-piercing projectiles right through the shaft. JERSEY BULL AT $65,000. MOUNT KISCO, N.
