"Whites Must Stop War or Yield to Yellow," He Says.
WASHINGTON, D. C.—The white race will fall before the yellow in a great world war unless the new dominant peoples abandon militarism for the constructive and friendly policies of peace, Senator Arthur Capper, Kansas, predicts, in an interview urging disarmament as the only wise and progressive course.
"Should militarism continue," said Senator Capper, "there will be long conflict before the light of civilization is snuffed out, but it will be put out if wars and preparations for war go on. Another great world war will, I believe, bring about the downfall of us and do away with a proof their inheritance to rule more peacefully and wisely. The white man is already far outnumbered by the yellow. Unless the white man's policy is constructive, commercially fair and honestly friendly, he will have to step down and the yellow-skinned people with their alien customs and pagan ideals will rule."
Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia and Senator Ellison B. Smith of South Carolina oppose the Johnson compensation bill because it will benefit a thousand or more of our employees and government. Senator Johnson of California opposes the bill with all the vigor at his command and states that every man in the employment of the government, regardless of color, will be benefited by it. "Color does not interest me," the Senator said, "it is for the masses of the people that I am pushing this bill."

BOUND FOR THE SENATE
In This Wise and Rich Colored French man—Simply Will Not be Denied!
Paris, France.—What seems more like a movie thrill is the interesting story of how Adeodat Dubrouille, a native of Gaudalupe, who came to France and started with nothing, and is now one of the richest men in France. Rum is the story of his success. In a country where the color of a man's skin does not count, this sturdy fellow with a dark skin was quick to grasp the opportunity at the right time. Landing in Marseilles in 1913 with fifty francs in his pocket Dubrouille immediately began working as a longshoreman. When the war began, he invested his savings in a small stock of rum a few weeks before the war. That stock, Selling out his first stock he bought more, moved to Paris, and within three years became the largest dealer in rum in France. In 1917 he signed an enormous contract with the French government whereby he supplied practically all the rum served to the soldiers in the trenches and used in the hospitals. During the grip epidemic of 1918, he is said to have made $5,000,000 profits. Buying himself a country mansion near Paris he married a French woman, and was made mayor of his community in token of large benevolence. In November, 1920, he was prosecuted by the Government on a charge of falsely declaring his excess war profits under the rule of the French Empire. Meanwhile he has announced himself candidate for the exclusive French Senate, for the district of Gaudalupe, in opposition to Senator Henry Berenger, the famous writer, who is chairman of the Senate Commission on Foreign Affairs. His supporters allege his election is almost certain, since a large proportion of the voters in Gaudalupe are enfranchised blacks.
It is said that the Ministers' Alliance has made a mistake in voting to recommend the purchase of lots in Beechwood and that the lots are being offered at a price too high. There are 51 acres in the plat of land, three or four miles this side Chagrin Falls, and nine miles from the city. Better investigate thoroughly before purchasing lots anywhere out of the city.
SOME MONEY RAISER!
Tate Co. Takes Title To Forest City Park.
Some weeks ago, President Geo. J. Tate of the Tate Stars Baseball Co., organized by some of our enterprising men to give Cleveland, a high class team and park, and holding an option or a fine piece of Cleveland real estate, decided, after several days of earnest thought, to immediately close the deal for the property with-
out waiting for the progress of his stock-selling campaign. So he left his office and after several hours absence returned with well over $3,000 for his business deal. And they say money is tight!
Last week, it was announced that the surveying completed, the Tate Co. had taken title to Forest City Park nearly five acres at E. 55th St. and Yorkum Ave. The officers are now busy on plans for a fine grandstand to accommodate 5,000 persons and have engaged Geo. W. Hooper, one of our most efficient contractors, who has guaranteed to rush the stands to completion by April 15th.
Jas. Roland was lynched near Camilla, Ga., recently, after shooting Jason L. Harvel, a well to do white farmer, who had held a pistol on him and ordered him to dance.
Mr. Hiram Smith of Hopkinsville, Ky., has been appointed a magistrate by Gov. E. P. Morrow. Mr. Smith is one of our leading business men of that city.
The editor of the N. Y. Age sued the editor of the N. Y. News for libel, recently. During the former's illness, a few weeks ago, the case was removed from the court calendar.
Atty. Peter Boult "Lands"
GARY, Ind.—What is believed to be the first jury composed entirely of our women ever summoned in this country, sat in Judge Wellner's court on Dec. 31, "20, to try the case of Gertrude Merideth against her husband George Merideth, who is charged with non-support and provocation.
Atty. Peter Boult, who came here from Cleveland a few years ago, was recently sworn in as a deputy prosecuting attorney of this (Lake) county. (Congratulations, Peter — Editor.) His wife is Mrs. Bertha Sutton Boult, one of our best teachers in the public schools of Cleveland.
Geo. A. Early has been appointed a salesman for the Pollack Davis Co., authorized Ford dealers, 11628 Euclid Ave. He has been in the employ of the Ford Motor Co. for 15 years and has been granted a six months' absence in order to give him an opportunity to prove his worth as a salesman. Theazette will be their leaders to help them all they can by sending to him all persons they can who may be interested in any way in the purchase of a Ford car or truck of any description.
Following the pastor's able sermon Sunday morning at Lane Metropolitan C. M. E. church, ten persons joined the church. Another large congregation heard Dr. L. H. Brown in the evening; Mrs. Frances E. Motin, evangelist, lectured to the W. M. S. at 6 p. m. "capturing" the audience. The stewards board's entertainment, Monday evening, was a gem. The choral club, under the direction of Mrs. E. Owens, announced the pastor will read the "General Rules" at 11 a. m. Sunday. Never before in its history has Lane church been so active in all of its departments and its future been so bright.

Compel the South to Obey the U. S. Constitution—Degenerate Southern White Womanhood—Lynch-Murder
(Special to The Gazette.)
The south has a party of its own. The south tolerates the north when it votes for southern policies. Mr. Harding is confronted with this southern Democracy badly broken. In spite of the bitterest and nastiest propaganda, Mr. Harding broke the "Solid South". Naturally many are planning to keep it broken. This is a wise policy, but in keeping it broken there must be no sacrifice of principles nor evasion of constitutional rights to any class of citizens. There must be no pandering to the unjust whiffs of the south such as was done by Mr. Taft when he was president. The south must not be deprived of any just American right which is hers and neither must she be allowed to receive any more than any other portion of the country receives. At heart the south hates a "white Yankee" more than it does any colored man. At even opportunity the south spares not this Yankee when it can dig him. Why Mr. Harding should be asked to consider the wishes of a most hostile Dem-
ing. The mob depends upon the officers to arrest and then they also expect these officers to surrender the prisoner without any real resistance when the time comes for the execution of its mandate. White supremacy is a policy placed above the constitution of the state and the constitution of the United States. White supremacy means the unbridled reign of violence and the orgy of bloodshed to cower the colored race so that the white race may usurp the powers of government. With this white supremacy in power for a quarter of a century, the south has sunk to the lowest strata of civilization such as the Fiji Islanders would scorn. That refined southern womanhood which once made the south the proudest place in the world
oeratic foe, is inexplicable to me. Why the south should share in holding the federal offices during the Harding administration, is also a mystery that should be explained. The Democrats in the south should be driven out of office and Republicans put into their places. These Republicans should be appointed solely upon their fitness and not upon their color or racial ties. Any objection to any efficient Republican holding a position because of his race, should not be tolerated for one moment. The south is now planning a subterfuge to violate the nineteenth amendment. The time is ripe to force south to respect the entire constitution, a plan to prevent women from voting, who were born south of latitude 20, is being suggested by a Texas and Louisiana man. The forcement of the Constitution is left to a party government. The Republican party is entrusted with this sacred duty now. To refuse to enforce it or to wink at its violation, renders the party, unfit to govern. The keeping the south within its proper sphere, in the administration of the government, is the bounder duty of the Republican party.
Negroes will not sit whiningly, any more, while the south robs them of their blood-bought rights. White Congressmen from the north, who are elected on the strength of colored votes, are called upon to combat that evil, as it destroys the rights of American citizens. Southern whites have shown themselves unworthy to be entrusted with the government. For a militaristic government, it has substituted a government of outlaws. The officers of the law are in league with this mob. Lynching is a part of the understanding when a man is elected to office. The officers of the law are used to further lynch-
GILPIN BATTERING IT DOWN!
Bert Williams Started the Good Work in That City, However.
New York City.—The elevation of Charles S. Gilpin, actor, to stellar rank, recently, by Adolph Klauber marks the first time that one of the race has been heralded in electric lights on Broadway in a dramatic offering. But Gilpin is by no means our first actor to win fame by legitimate methods. Those who viewed Ira Aldridge in "Othello" for it was in that play he excelled, declare him to have been the goose of play of his contemporaries. Born in 1810, he died in 1867, and his fame, for the greater part, was won abroad. Aldridge was born in Maryland and attached himself to Edmund Kean as a valet when that actor visited here. He traveled back to England, picked up a knowledge of stagecraft, and returned to make his first appearance in Baltimore. He failed, because of American prejudice. He repaired, he backed up his goods and backed to London. He was appreciated for his real worth. Europe and Great Britain hailed him as a great tragedian. He was decorated by royalty and entertained javishly. He retired, married an English woman, and died peacefully and respected. Gilpin played the role of Curtis, the Negro, in "Abraham Lincoln" in New York, which led to his being engaged for the O'Nell tragedy. Emperor Jones. He is hailed by Brownie Jones as a divinity play will be offered in Cleveland later in the season.
Aldridge left a daughter, Miss Ira Aldridge, who is a talented resident of London, Eng.

Dr. William A. Byrd.
where womanly virtue shown out in resplendent glory, has taken its fight and today the womanhood of the south is as vicious as that of the men and perhaps is more so for she has been trained by years of lynching, murder, burning and all forms of violent deaths, to bring her nursing babe, her children just learning to know right from wrong and her young girls soon to be the mothers, to look upon writhing human beings in the paroxysms of pain and see their bodies distorted by the violence of wary for mercy; and when death silences their agonies, these women, mothers and would be mothers of the white south, fight with each other for souvenirs. We demand of this country and Europe to send Christianity to the south to save white women and children from degradation and savagery.

Is Jack Johnson Broke?
BOSTON, Mass.—Displayed in a local pawnshop window is a trophy that brings back to memory the past prowess of the world's erstwhile heavyweight champion; Jack Johnson. It is the black opal trophy that he won during his fistic victories in Sydney, Australia, back in 1908—thirteen years ago. The trophy was presented to Johnson by Perry Marks of Sydney on Dec. 26, 1908. The inscription en it reads:
"World's Heavyweight Championship—Presented by Perry Marks—Won by Jack Marks. It is on exhibition in the window of Klein & Pearlstein, pawnbrokers and jewelers, No. 21 Beach street.
A "Jim Crow" Theater Caused It.
TOLEDO, O.—Charges have been preferred, against the local school authorities, which claim that our pupils in Industrial Heights were being segregated by the principal of the school. The matter was referred to the local school board. This was undoubtedly a direct result of the announcement that our people were soon to open a "jim Crow" theater. Instead of advertising that the school was to be on ALL, which it is, the promoters permitted the announcement to be made locally and sent broadcast over the country that it was to be "for Negroes only," and the harm was done. Now we are suffering as a result! Cleveland people of color should be careful.
The editor of The Gazette's libel suit for $10,000, against the Western Newspaper Union, Ormond Forte and Rev. C. H. Crable, will soon be reached in Common Pleas court.

The Joseph E. Beverleigh and Garrett Morgan "battle" in the courts seems to be a sort of a never-ending affair. The former claims a victory, last week, while the latter "fires" right back with an announcement that Judge Bauer granted him an order restraining Beverleigh from in any way interfering with the business. Now the question is, which one did win—if it ever did. Mrs. Harry E. Gaines, 2335 E. 87th, st. who had suffered for many years with a knee, went to Grace Hospital, South Side, two weeks ago Tuesday, and the next day had her left leg amputated just above the knee. She is convalescing so rapidly that Mr. Gaines was able to take her home, this Thursday. Wonderful! Their hosts of friends are simply delighted over her remarkable demonstration of vitality in sustaining the operation and being able to return home so soon. Mr. Gaines is a most lovable woman.

Dr. Chelia Mosher Arraigns "Amateur Males."
NEW YORK—Women were accused of not "playing fast" by trying to hold on to privileges granted because of weakness and dependence while at the same time asserting the doctrine of equality with men, in an address delivered today before the international conference of women physicians by Dr. Chelia Mosher of Leland Stanford university.
Dr. Mosher declared the old idea that being a woman was a handicap must be given up.
"The new freedom," said Dr. Mosher, "has entailed sometimes no new idea of a wider, more perfect filling of woman's own great place in the world, in the imitation of the man; an attempt to make herself into what has been characterized as an 'amateur male.'
"We must go back to the old Greek ideal of physical perfection. If we can put aside the old idea that being a woman is a handicap and bring up all children of today mentally and physically free, clothe them so they may be hampered neither in time nor work, there is no limitation on what we may expect from the coming generation." Dr. Mosher added that women must not make the mistake of losing their primary function of motherhood. "No woman reaches her fullest development," she said, "who is not a wife and mother."
Wife Spanks Hubby
KANSAS CITY, Kan.—When crowds on the way home from the theaters the other night saw a woman chasing a man down Grand-av. north from Twelfth-st., they stayed "for the rest of the show." At Eighth-st. the man was overtaken and when the crowds cheered his pursuer gave him a sound spanking. A patrolman arrested the couple and broke up the show. They gave their name as Mr. and Mrs. L. R. Baker. The receiver of the spanking said the trouble was the result of an agreement to disagree."

A grand record was hung up in 1918, his last season here, by Ralph Moore, the great right-handed pitcher of the Tate Stars, who is to receive an opportunity to show his wares, to the tough opposition of the new Cleveland entry in our western circuit of Colored professional clubs. Nervy, and possessed of the stamina and physique of a perfect athlete, with proper handling, Moore should be a winner in the western circuit. Hard to handle, he was slow rounding into form, but by mid-summer of 1918 he was almost unbeaten, despite the indifferent support of his team and outplaying Him the greatest performance was that of Aug. 11th, when he let the heavy-hitting Willard Batteries down with three scattered hits and eleven. Out of eight starters he won seven and won a reputation as a "batting fool," hitting well over 300.
The undefeated Swastikas won their fourth consecutive victory, last Thursday, when they trounced the Maroons, 27 to 7. The Maroons were touted to win but the superior team work of our boys soon won the day and they easily galloped into the lead. Bruce was the Swastika luminary, scoring 14 of the 27 points. Sput Out, Los ANGELES, Cal—"Speed" Martin could not hold our White Sox last Sunday and a crowd of 5,000 enthusiastic bugs saw the All-Stars lose, 2 to 0. Rogan, ace of the K. C.

HAVANA, Cuba—The Almendares team, composed of a large number of players affiliated with the western circuit of the Colored baseball league, are leading the Cuban winter league, with the New York's second and Havana's third. The New Yorks are the regular Giants of the National League, including Burns, Baneroft, Young, Kelly, Barnes, Snyder, etc., and it is these stars that our boys are showing their heels too, daily. Up to last week, the Almendares beaten the Giants in every game except two,
STUDY INSIDE OF SKULLS OF INSANE
EXPERTS DEVELOP "SHADOW PICTURE" METHOD OF CLASSIFICATION
Will Advance Science Of Criminalology And Psychiatry
BROOKLYN, Mass.—The study of the inside of the skulls of insane patients at the Massachusetts Psychopathic hospital is the latest means which medical science has developed to help solve the problem of the mentally sick.
The examination of these strange shadow pictures already has revealed sufficient instructive information to lead to a movement to secure a state appropriation to further this work.
Experts predict that by means of these remarkable plate outlines the science of criminology and psychiatry will be moved forward substantially.
Savants at the institution, investigating the cause of the various cases of mental diseases sent there, will now look to the little X-ray machine and the mysteriously shaded glass plate which came the bone structures of the head to help solve the riddle of aberrations of the brain which this bone wall holds. By means of these plates deviation from the normal will be promptly detected in many cases. It is estimated that this new use of the X-ray will reveal causes of trouble in about 15 per cent. of the cases that otherwise might not be correctly diagnosed. The new work has been launched under the direction of Dr. Elmer E. Southard, head of the Psychiatric hospital and one of the foremost psychiatrists in the country.
Strange Animal Was Captured In Congo
LONDON. — British naturalists, who have been confidently expecting that the only live okapi in captivity was to be brought to the zoological garden in Regent's park, were disappointed when the news came from Antwerp that the animal had been brought there from the Congo by Dr. Lebrum. It was the gift of Mme. Landaghem, whose husband is in the Congo medical service. The okapi is the survivor of a distant ancestor of the giraffe. An adult stands about five feet high, and although it has the general shape of the giraffe its neck is relatively shorter and its forelegs are not so high in proportion to the hindquarters.
The sides of the animal's head are light fawn color and the general coloration of the body is a dark purple. The most striking character is the ridge and the lower part of the legs are transversely striped with black and white. It was first known in 1901, having been found in the Semilikai forest, haunting low undergrowth and swamps. This particular specimen was in Mine, Landaghem's possession for a few years and photographs it received were show it eating out of her band.

A good sized, enthusiastic crowd, at Longwood School last Friday, saw the speedy Acmes run over the Akron athletes, 18 to 8. The Acme machine was in fine form and soon showed their superiority to the rubber city men. Johns and Brooks, center were the mainstays of the local offense and defense. In a preliminary game the champion Pioneers bowled over the Argomes and won in a canter, 20 to 3. The latter were unable to make a field basket.

HERE'S A RED HOT DISCOVERY
GOVERNMENT CHEMIST HAS BURNING RESEARCH PRODUCT
Capsalicin Stronger Than Strongest Brand Of Pepper
WASHINGTON.-The hottest stuff on earth has been isolated, analyzed and put up in a little bottle by Dr. E. K. Nelson of the Bureau of Chemistry.
This remarkable substance bears about the same relation to red pepper that saccharin does to sugar.
It has the essential quality of pepper—the burning quality—intensified about 500 times, just as saccharin has the sweetness of sugar greatly intensified.
In soldiers' rations, a very small tablet of saccharin does the work of many pounds of sugar.
A little capsalicin, as it is called, will do the work of tons of red pepper.
Dr. Nelson has about two ounces of it. He says that one of those ounces, if sufficiently diluted, would be enough to put a peppery taste on the tongue of every man, woman and child in the United States. Dr. Nelson has a solution of capsicum in alcohol, which consists of the part of the stuff to 100,-000 parts of alcohol. This substance was isolated long ago by an English chemist named Thresh, who swallowed some of it in a capsule, and had one of the most intense and violent stomach aches in the history of science. His discovery attracted some attention at the time, but was soon forgotten. It remained for Nelson to analyze the substance. He not only did that, producing the acid and the base of which it is made, but he also made synthetically a substance almost exactly like it. Nelson had some interesting adventures in the laboratory with wavers in his laboratory with the fumes of capsicum, his face became so red and irritated that he had to give up shaving for a while.
A little of the vapor got into his eyes, and he was temporarily blinded. His eyes in due course returned to normal, and were no worse for the experience.
In order to produce this substance, the doctor took 50 pounds of the hottest red pepper he could get and put it thru a number of chemical processes, finally eliminating every thing but this one substance.
The substance consists of thuy, clear white crystals, not unlike little diamonds. It is literally impossible to do anything with the substance in a pure state.
Erects Tablet To Inventors Of Sewing Machine, Bridge And Bed SOUTH SPENCER, Mass.—A memorial tablet to mark the birthplace of three noted inventors has just been placed on the site of the old homestead, Howe's Village. There was born Elias Howe, jr., inventor of the sewing machine; Tyler Howe, inventor of the truss bridge, and William Howe, who invented the first spring bed. Elias Howe, jr., was a nephew of the other two.

WATT WORKSHOP TO BE PRESERVED
Garret In London Remains as Genius Left It
LONDON.—The garret in which the engineering genius, James Watt, persued his mechanical studies is to be removed intact, if possible, from its position on the top of Heathfield hall at Handsworth, where Watt spent his last years, and re-erected in the central memorial building in Birmingham. When Watt died the garret was located and remained unopened for about fifty years, and even now it is still in the same condition as when Watt worked in it.
The piece of iron Watt was last engaged in turning his on the tathe. The ashes of the last fire where Watt used to do his own cooking because of his wife's objection to seeing her husband "looking like a blacksmith" are still in the grate; the last lump of coal is in the scuttle. The Dutch oven is in its place over the stove and the frying pan in which he cooked his meal is hanging on the accustomed nail.

KEEPING THE NEGRO DOWN Is Doing That Very Thing for the Poor Whites
Of the Southland—A Native Southerner Tells How it is Being Done.
Not many weeks ago a group of Georgia business men came North to study northern conditions and methods. A member of that group made a statement for publication in which he deplored the neglected opportunities of the South. He promised to return with the will to arouse the South to greater effort.
We are reading day by day, however, more news from the South about the "revival" of the Ku Klux Klan than of any unconcerted industrial or educational endeavor. We are told that the Ku Klux is to spend millions in promoting its plans, while those of us who are southern and who know the South understand, whatever else the representation, that here is the submerging of southern opportunity still further in the buncombe of anti-Negro agitation.
What business as well as the entire South needs to know is that it would be far better for the South if all this waste of time and energy in pursuing the Negro problem were given to educational and industrial betterment of the poor whites and to other lines of human effort. Keeping the southern atmosphere charged and surcharged with this political race agitation, giving so much space to it in the papers and in discussions with people, and of those things which would mean the actual betterment of the southern people, has contributed more than all else to the backwardness of the South.
“Keeping the Negro in his place” has occupied the political leadership of the southern states more than rearering the standard of education among the massess, and planning and contriving to keep the political control in the hands of a few bourbon leaders has long been considered of paramount concern to building new industries and opening opportunity for better living conditions for the whites, who are regaled about upholding “white amacy” with the blacks year out while other fellow holds a mortgage on their crops. Meanwhile the Negro goaded and punched and cudgelled, has been compelled to call forth his wits and to appeal to his best efforts; has seen the importance to his children of getting learning and the necessity of better equipping through education and savings for the hard conflict of life. The poor white is all right simply because he is white, so he reasons and he is a fit subject for the inflaming appeal to race hate when he raises the big road to new biggy to which a well-fed horse is attached and he, poor white, has to go to church in a one-horse wagon, driving a mule with tough-line harness.
The aforesaid white population is not at all difficult for a Vardaman or a Heftin or a Watson to captivate with verbal onslaughts against the Negro. From such material as this, of this type, does Imperial Wizard Simmons
A STRONG ARGUMENT
Against Segregation, Separate Schools, a White Friend of the Race Makes To the Editor of the Salina (Kan.) Journal, Dear Sir:—I truly believe that the citizens who are advocating the separation of white and colored school children are trying to make us take a step backward, whether they themselves are conscious of their own role or indeed is not a democratic movement and indicates an undercurrent of intolerance, of which we have had entirely too many exhibitions during the war when stress and propaganda alike made our feelings somewhat abnormal. This wish to segregate can not be caused by any feeling or real repugnance to be in the same room with colored people because even the most urgent of segregators—the southerners—tolerate and even prefer colored people to take all care of their children and particularly of children of their family in the home and for personal service—so by that they wholly eliminate the argument of physical proximity.
Now as to white superiority. We al admit that, I think, as a generally recognized fact. But because my boy is superior to the black boy is no reason for separation. My boy is superior to many of his white classmates but who want to put him in a separate school for that reason? He may also be the inferior of many classmates—but would it do either him or them any good to separate them? No I want my child to go to school with his superiors—mental, physical and emotional in order to bear him, the stimuli bear him himself, but I also want him to be with those below his ability or standard, and for his own good, to teach him tolerance and patience and consideration, so that he will not become that most abominable of creatures—a snob. My own child has attended schools where there were Negroes—also Mexicans and Indians. I am sure it has not done him a bit of harm and am confident that it has bettered him. He will have to live his life where there are different races particularly our colored people. And the better he knows them the better for him am the more just he can be to them. Near me, the lawlessness of those "race riots" is due to inadequate bred by ignorance. Separation only intensifies this. I have lived long enough in Oklahoma, Texas, Florida and Georgia to know personally that it does not help to solve the race question to separate them. I believe it makes the problem harder to solve, for how can you sep-
wax fat in glorification over the spirit of hate and strife he engenders in his "white supremacy" propaganda. The bourbon political machine has long maintained itself in the South simply through the political atmosphere created through this race-hate appeal, for raising the Negro question is always the smoke-screen thrown up because of the "shrewd" southern political manipulator. Whoever keeps this issue a heated one, serves to keep it ever pres-
Hon. Joseph C. Manning.
ent, is looked upon as serving the cause a good purpose. With the race issue to the forefront, with the Democracy pressing that it alone is the safeguard of "white supremacy" and standing for the "integrity of the white race" as against the Republican party up North, "which wants your daughter to marry a Negro," the bourbon machine goes right along running the South, while the poor white goes right along running a crop that is mortgaged to some one else on the plants itself with a little hope of getting out of his industrial servitude as has the average southern colored man of getting the ballot or the real consideration due a good citizen who has made good under trying circumstances and under great hardships.
Laws and conditions in the South intended to repress and to strike at the Negro serve all the more in whacking the masses of whites. Too many southern white men are busily engaged in the job of trying to keep the Negro down to make any progress in getting up themselves, and it is the true story of the whole South that it has kept itself in the ditch trying to keep the Negro in the ditch, while this process has caused the colored people to become good climbers in many lines of endeavor.
JOSEPH C. MANNING.
arate people who are mutually dependent on each other? We do not want to "southernize" our treatment of Negroes for we do not want our Negroes like the Negroes of the South. We have a good industrious responsible inman. Let's keep him so. And if your boy and my boy go through school with him they will not be nearly so ready to help lynch him when they are older.
We are having a big run now of intolerance—all over the world—and in our country even anti-Semitism has shown its ugly mug. It is mostly due to overwrought nerves from the war. So we must guard ourselves against any foolish action while under this pressure, and segregation in Kansas is certainly very foolish and absolutely unnecessary. Mr. Roach quoted a man as saying it would do the white child no good and would harm the colored child. I go a step farther for I truly believe it would harm our white children by narrowing them. And we can't afford to become narrow if the United States is to regain its prestige for democracy. E. W. R.

Animals That Reason
The president of a society for the prevention of cruelty to animals is collecting instances of animal reasoning. The following are instances he has authenticated:
A banker had a jackdaw that was interested in croquet. As soon as the bird heard the click of the balls he would swoop down and watch the game tentatively from a hedge. And when the players stopped the jackdaw would begin to play himself. He would take a ball and push it with beak and claws toward the "cage," or middle wicket, and he would not be content with merely putting the ball through—he would work away till he had succeeded in ringing the bell that hung from the cage's top.
A Philadelphia elephant is fond of cakes. Often when a cake is thrown to him it will lodge under the bar of his house in such a way that neither he nor the thrower can reach it. In this dilemma the elephant always puts his trunk down near the cake and blows it out upon the floor, whence the thrower may again heave it.
A Chicagoan has a retriever, Jack, who has been artined to fetch slippers. Jack one day was bad and they turned him out of the room. Ashamed and dejected he went away. He knew that he pleased his master by fetching the slippers. Therefore, to stone for his misconduct, he brought now all the slippers and shoes he could find and laid them in a heap before the door. When his master opened the door finally there sat Jack looking up wisfully and wagging his tail, while beside him lay some thirty shoes and slippers.
An old bay mare had a field to herself. One day a lot of calves intruded upon her privacy. The mare looked at the calves in amazement. Then she went slowly around the field until she found the gap in the fence through which they had come. Now she steered the intruders, one by one, to the gap, and, taking each by the back of the neck, shoved it forth into the road again.

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
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

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 in the case of a person not in color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both.
Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than fifty dollars, and, if a son 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.
Judge Grant's Opinion of the Law.
Misled by the foolishly manufactured outcyre for the passage of the Beaty bill, a few years ago, the Akron Beacon Journal published an editorial to which the editor of The Gazette replied, calling its attention to the fact that the Ohio Civil Rights law was good law and did not need amending. The following letter from Judge Grant, former presiding judge of the Court of Appeals of the Eighth District of Ohio, is self explanatory: Akron, O., April 25, 1919.
My Dear Sir: Observing your letter in the Beacon-Journal. of this city, I venture to send you, under a separate cover, the Ohio Law Reporter of Feb. 3, last, containing the opinion of the Court of Appeals in the Puritan Lunch Co. vs. Leonard H. Forman, decided in Akron, last fall, in which a judgment for ($500) five hundred dollars was sustained. If the Beacon-Journal had known what was going on in its own town, there would have been no occasion for criticism, editorially. THE LAW OF OHIO IS UNDER NO REPROACH, nor our courts and juries, in administering it. Not a word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed. Very truly yours,
C. R. Grant.
AMERICANS SEE
RELICS OF MAGI
Officers Witness Mass At Cologne COLOGNE.—A British army chapain celebrated mass recently in the great Cologne cathedral at the altar of the relics of the Magl, the skulls of the three wise men who came from the East to visit the newly born Saviour at Bethlehem. He was a member of American officers and men from the Cathedral area attended the service, and were permitted to view the relics. Tradition says that the Empress Helena procured the bones and took them to Constantinople, whence they were removed - to Milan. In 1164 they were presented by Frederick Barbarossa to Archbishop Reinald von Dassel who brought them to Cologne. At first they were kept in the Cologne the Magl, the central chapel of the three wise men, the choir, but since the war they have been put away in the Cathedral treasury, near the organ.
The bones are kept in a golden reliquary, costly specimen of Romanesque craftsmanship in the form of a basilica, said to have been made about 1200 A. D. In the form of a statue, three bronzes are represented, the ownership of the Magi relies having suggested the design.

CURED HIS RUPTURE
I was badly ruptured while lifting a trunk several years ago. Doctors said my only hope of cure was an operation. Trusses did me no good. Finally I got hold of something that quickly and completely cured me. Years have passed and the rupture has never returned, although I am doing hard work as a carpenter. There was no operation, no lost time, no trouble. I have nothing to sell, but will give full information about how you may find a complete cure without operation, if you write to me. Engene Ahusen, ruptured, 1070 G Medical Avenue, Mamasquan, N. J.
