One phase of the discussion of Senator Newberry's case by his colleagues called for, a shameless exhibition of "nerve" by certain Democratic senators who were among the sevenest of his critics. They were men like John Sharp Williams, of Mississippi, whose presence in the Senate is delly proof of the triumph of fraud and the practical nullification of the constitution of the U. S. In Mississippi there is a colored majority of fully 100,000 in the population. There is not an intelligent white man in that state who really believes that any Democrat would have a chance of election to the U. S. Senate or to any state office, if the latter and the spirit of the federal constitution were given full effect, and race equality were permitted at the polls. Practically all of the colored men and women are native-born. The great majority live now at or near the places of their birth. They are all entitled to vote, under the fifteenth amendment to the national constitution, and if they did vote there would not be a chance in the world for Senator Williams to misrepresent the majority of the people of his state in the U. S. Senate. He knows it; his colleagues know it. The fact is plain to the whole country. Yet he was not ashamed to stand, up and exhaust his copious vocabulary in denouncing the use of money in Senator Newberry's behalf, though it is not seriously claimed by any responsible person that the majority for Newberry over Henry Ford did not represent the desire and the purpose, the free, untrammeled and, uncorrupted action of the larger part of the people of Michigan. It is not pretended that anyone who wanted to vote for Ford and tried to do so was prevented from casting his ballot and having it safely counted. It is not charged that anyone voted for Newberry against his will and intention. And yet Mississippi reproaches --- Michigan and beneficaries of enormous frauds are not ashamed to cry out against Newberry's advertising bills. It takes nerve—BenJ.

On Sunday, Jan. 15, '22 at 2:30 p.m., a great crowd of about 1500 persons filled the seats and 'aisles of Lane Metropolitan C. M. E. church to hear the Hon. Rudolph E. Smith on the nims' and objects of the U. N. I. A. At 2:45 the procession marched to, the platform, led by the Legions Black Cross Nurses, choir and juveniles. It was an interesting spectacle. The meeting was called to order by the ladies' second vice-president, Mrs. Pauline Patterson, who introduced the speakers, Mr. Wesley McHolder, exec. sec., and the president, Mr. Felix Worth. Both gentlemen enthused the audience greatly and brought about a better understanding on the movement founded by Marcus Garvey. The Hon. Rudolph Smith, leader of West.Indies Eastern Province, was then introduced and amolded great ovation delivered his address. Great enthusiasm prevailed: 'when he explained about ladies, their position, also the names of the organization. When the speaker referred to the flag, red, black and green, the audience cheered so it shook the giant building. When the members were called upon to show their loyalty by, christening the red, black and green, money seemed to have come from every corner. Mr. Smith calls upon all Negroes to help the race; also he intends to speak on "How Negroes can become Independent in less Than n Decade," at U. N. I. A. hall, Sunday at 2:30 p.m. He will also speak on that subject at Lane Metropolitan C. M. E. church. All are invited.

Charles Cottrill of Toledo, and one or two other members of the race, were candidates for the appointment. Several hundred of the employees of the registrar's office, mostly women and girls who had entered the service during the war, urged to do so, prejudiced Republicans and southern Democrats, signed a petition protesting against the appointment of an Afro-American registrar.

Harry C. Smith, Editor 'Gazette, City. Dear Sir:—The annual report of Shiloh. Baptist church for Jan. 1922, will show that we have a membership of 3500 and that we have $30,000 in cash in our "Tem- ple Fund." For the last four years, Shiloh has been raising money for the purpose of buying the Temple at the corner of E. 55th St. and Central Ave.; and recently, we understand that Mt. Zlon Cong, church, E. 31st St. near Central Ave., has offered more money for the property than it was offered to us for. Now, since we have been negotiating with the trustees of the Temple for the past four years and at the same time waiting for them to build a new Temple in order that we might go into the old Temple, we feel very keenly the attitude of a sister church in a matter of this kind.

"Please rush a warship with lumber and carpenters" was the message said to have been received at the state department, last week Thursday, from Dr Joseph L. Johnson, American minister at Monnoveria, Liberia, Africa. The dispatch explained, it is also said, that when several members of the Liberian cabinet were meeting at the American legation recently, the minister for foreign affairs shifted his chair to an undiscovered weak spot in the floor and was precipitated into the cellar when the floor gave way bengcah him. This "sounds," too. The department advised Minister Johnson, it is said, to have the necessary repairs made by native workmen. Dr Johnson's home was in Columbus, O. He is a Democrat. Says It is Similar and Will Supplement Our Ohio Anti-Lynching Law. WASHINGTON, D. C.—In his recent speech in Congress on the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill, Congressman Fess of Ohio said, among other things: "If we have a law in Ohio punishing lynching and a law in the federal government for the same purpose there is concurrent jurisdiction, both by state and nation over the cases to be dealt with by the state, if it will, do its duty and by the nation if the state refuses to do its duty. This bill is no interference whatever in the enforcement of the law in Ohio. In addition, it supplements the law of Ohio, and better still, it supplies authority for protection in the states which do not afford protection. I meant to state that the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill is similar to the law put upon the statute books by my own state. I think that every man who is acquainted with the situation, in my own state recognizes the salutary effect of that law. No one desires it repealed. It is written upon the principle that if an outlawry of any city, such as I have in mind, would permit such an inhuman thing as this, then the city (county) itself ought to suffer the penalty of the outlawry. I have before me a report which shows that in the 30 years from 1889 to 1919, 3,224 persons were lynched, of whom 2,522 were Negroes, and of these 50 were women. The North had 219, the West had 156, the South had 15, and the South had 2,834 with Georgia leading with 368, Mississippi following with 372. The report goes on to state that in the state of Georgia, where 368 lynchings occurred, the Negroes paid taxes on 1,664,368 acres of property assessed at $47,000,000."

This, Too, Contrary to Ohio Law—Prepidiced Whites and "Jim Crow" Negroes Working Together Lord, Have Mercy! Dayton; O.—The almost criminal baneful effects of "jim crow" Y. M. C. A.'s and kindred race-bairers (color-lines) are possibly made clearer in this city, at this time, than almost anywhere else in the country, and Ohio Afro-Americans should "sit up and take notice" now and ACT before it is too late, if indeed it is not too late as seems to be the case at several points in the state. Here in this city not so very many years ago, we had in Miss Troy a principal of one of our largest local public school buildings. All of the other teachers in the building were white, nearly a dozen. Children of both "races" were the pupils. Then came the foolish cry for a "jim crow" Y. M. C. A. Some Negro wanted a job, or others would segregate themselves. Prejudiced whites are always willing and anxious to help such foolish Negroes. The result: white residents of this city immediately, as usual, began a movement to give the misguided Negroes and all others here, MORE SIEGHERON. Of course, it was Negroes who directed their efforts. Miss Troy was denoted and is now teaching colored children only, many grades, too. In one room of the building over which she had presided as principal. All Ohio, heward of the "jim crow" Y. M. C. A. Read the following, from our local weekly paper, "The Forum" of this city. The horrible conditions and suffering of teachers and pupils at Garfield school can never be alleviated by separation—but only by union. Too much time has been spent in making wider the gulf between the two races. The time has come when all thoughts and efforts must be put forth to make men recognize the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. "The Colored citizens of Dayton should protest against all forms of separation in the public schools. If we ask for separation then we have no reason to complain when it is forced upon us. By asking for separation we admit that we are unfit morally, physically and mentally to walk, talk, study and labor by the side of our fellowmen. Doings of the Race The National Equal Rights league calls upon our people to celebrate Frederick Douglass and Crispus Attucks' birthdays (together). Feb. 14, the former's natal day, even the Attucks', is March 5. The Cleveland (O.) Advocate died about six weeks ago. It is the seventeenth race publication to "pass out" in that city since The Gazette was started, Aug. 25, 1883, thirty-nine years ago.—Ex. Bequests of nearly $3,000,000 for educational, charitable and development work among our people are made in the will of Mrs. Calista S. Mayhew of Newark, N. J., who died Dec. 19. All hope of escaping imprisonment was lost, recently, when the Georgia Supreme court affirmed the sentence of life imprisonment upon John S. Williams (white), owner of that peonage "murder farm." The fate of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the Black Star Line, the African Communities League, and other allied Garvey organizations hang in the balance awaiting the outcome of the arrest in N. Y. City, last week Thursday. By federal officials of Marcus Garvey, president general. He was released on $2,500 bail, and says his arrest is a plot hatched by enemies. The Adelphi Building, Loan and Savings Co., of Columbus, O., held its second annual stockholders' meeting, recently. It has been operating since April 4, 1921, and has done over $27,000 worth of business during its eight months of existence. A three per cent dividend was declared.

Thomas A. Triplett Dead: CINCINNATI, O.—Thos. A. Tripplett, for many years a clerk. in the local postoffice and president of the trustee board of our New Orphan Asylum for Children, died last Saturday morning. Paralysis. Funeral. Wednesday, from Union Baptist church. A wife and several children, two daughters (married) residents of Cleveland, survive him and have the sympathy of the community. For years Mr. Tripplett had been one of our leading residents and race workers. He is well known throuout the state among our older residents. Mrs. Tripplett lived in Cincinnati many years ago. LE COPY FIVE CENTS "W" Y. M. C. A. Schools to Dayton As Cincinnati To Law—Prepidiced Whites and ites Working Together— e Mercy! We admit that we do not desire to associate with the best classes of all races. It is hard to change the mental conceptions and beliefs of grown people, therefore we can only look with faith to the children. Children are the bulwarks of freedom; the cement of society and the future hopes of a race. Therefore early in life the child should be guided aright. It should be taught the essence of self-respect, human equality, human solidarity and human love. The child should be taught that character alone is worthy of its admiration and emulation. "These lessons can not be taught as long as there is a guild of hatred between the races. All the world needs is love. A love that will cause mankind to know and demonstrate that "all men are born free and equal." Out of love arises faith, out of faith arises union and in union there is no separation. We all (both races) live in the same country, governed by the same laws and laboring under the same flag—why can't we all work together in preparing for and solving the problems of life? Dayton needs human love. Dayton needs a system under which colored and white teachers can teach pupils of both races (like in Cleveland, O..) A system under which our teachers and pupils can have an equal opportunity, under desirable conditions, to obtain a living wage and an equal education. Yes, we need equality but not an equality as conceived by the narrow-minded class, but equality in its broadest and truest sense. True equality of races is the cornerstone of a fair society and human progress. We need in-Dayton an equal right to gain knowledge and all that goes to make true men and women and an equal opportunity to use that knowledge at any time and place. There isn't a colored mother or father in Dayton but who knows that if their daughter is given the proper training and an equal right to use that training, is capable of teaching, shaping and moulding the future of all children of all races." Too Much "Woodmen." AKRON, O.—Ormond A. Forte of Cleveland, former editor of the defunct "Cleveland Advocate," now associated with C. C. Cade's "Improved Order of Woodmen," is announced for a speech here, Feb. 2. This organization was started some months ago when Mr. Cade pulled away from the American Woodmen organization which he had been representing in Cleveland for a year or two. There is talk of a third "Woodmen" organization, it is said. Additional Locals Price Literary society held an interesting session at St. Paul's A. M. E. Zion church, Monday evening.

The spacious auditorium was filled with as enthusiastic an audience as it has held for a long time and maybe it did not thoroughly enjoy the splendid program! In the first place, Mrs. Thompson has assembled quite a number of really good voices, male and female; secondly, she has them exceptionally well-drilled; thirdly, the program selections were varied and very good, so good that many encores were given. This same was true of Mr. Thompson's and Miss Sanford's selections, both being much above the average as were the renditions. Praise should also be given-Miss Vanessa Banks, another accompanist, and the choral society leaders, Monday evening, the Misses Frances Baldwin, Mabel Gibson and Edith Wright.

SHILOH AND MT. ZION! The board of trustees of Shiloh Baptist church is protesting against an alleged attempt of officials of Mt. Zion Congregational church to outbid them for the Jewish Temple at the corner of E. 55th St. and Central Ave. Surely there must be some misunderstanding, for Shiloh has held a verbal option on the property for four years, and about every one knows this. For Mt. Zion officials, or anyone directly or indirectly connected with that church, to step in at this late date and bid for the Temple property is hardly Christian-like, to say the least. We hope the rumor is not true. The statement of the board of trustees of Shiloh Baptist church will be found elsewhere in this paper. Read it carefully and call the attention of Mt. Zion Cong. church members to it at once. EDITOR WRIGHT DEPOSED Cheap, "curb-stone or peanut" politics, in the City Council of Philadelphia, has caused Editor R. R. Wright of the Christian Recorder to lose a position he has held for some time as "a colored social worker" of that city. The Philadelphia daily and weekly press all praise his work and condemn those members of the City Council responsible for his elimination as a social worker. What Dr. Wright did to arouse the bitter enmity of the Philadelphia boss politician, who used his power in the Council to wreak his personal vengeance, was to expose deplorable conditions of vice and crime for which the political system, in which that particular boss was a dominant power, was directly responsible. He had the courage—or the "impudence," as one of the boss' councilmen preferred to call it—publicly to proclaim the enormity of the offense against public morals and decency that was permitted to exist in the Seventh Ward of Philadelphia with the knowledge and apparent connivance of the police and the political machine of that city. City-owned properties were made the harbor of criminals, the scene of nameless and shameful crime; and it was not until the courageous social worker, Editor Wright, exposed the wrong that any remedy was applied. And it was not until the good people of ward 11, Cleveland, exposed the low moral status and miserable living conditions in that ward, last fall, that the change for the better, which has come with the Kobler administration, was made even possible. There is room for even greater improvement, we know, but the good people of that ward are thankful for what little they have gained without any help from "Starlight's candidate." Councilman Thos. W. Fleming. Philadelphia, especially our people of that city, have sustained a great loss in the letting out of Dr. Wright. social worker, and our people of this city can fully appreciate the fact. FEDERAL MACHINE FOR FLIVER KING. In the debate on the Newberry case, Democrats in the Senate declared that the Republican party was on trial. That was undoubtedly true, and yet the Republican party was no more on trial then than it is at any and all other times. The Republicans were on this occasion presented with the question whether the senatorship from Michigan should be determined by a combination of the Wilson Federal machine and the Ford publicity and commercial organization. There was nothing whatever in the records to show that Mr. Newberry had done anything either legally or morally wrong. The expenditure and efforts put forth by his friends were in the aggregate less in extent than the influences at work in behalf of Mr. Ford. Mr. Newberry had won out in a popular election where the voters had every opportunity to know all the facts. There was no charge anywhere that any votes had been purchased or that any intimidation had been exercised. That being the case, the Republican party was on trial to determine whether or not it would seat a man who had honestly elected in the face of an organized opposition unprecedented in its political power and influence. When thus placed on trial the Republicans in the Senate acquitted themselves with credit. The American people have nothing against Mr. Ford. He has been a valuable citizen and will render great service to his country in the future. But he was not a proper man for a seat in the U. S. Senate. His candidacy was not instituted in accordance with the 'principles of popular government. His campaign was supported by influences not consistent with a free expression of popular will. Mr. Ford is scarcely to be blamed for that, for the reason that he left his campaign in the hands of his friends just as Senator Newberry did. There was an excessive use of Federal and commercial influence in behalf of Mr. Ford just as there was an excessive use of money in the publicity campaign of Senator Newberry. The only material difference between the two was that after taking all the facts into consideration a majority of the people voted for Senator Newberry. The only honest and courageous thing for the Republicans to do was to carry out the will of the people of Michigan. This they did. The Democrats are at liberty to get out of it all the political advantage they can. The Children Wept! Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, City. Dear Mr. Smith;—I beg to inform you that many children and their parents have been in to see me offering to circulate petitions for my reinstatement. Many children even wept when they heard of my leaving the bath-house and came to me with tears in their eyes to express their regret. They had learned to love me and vice versa. It is wonderful what control I had acquired over the little ones of the community. I did not circulate any petitions because I felt that my record was sufficient proof of my worth in that neighborhood, in the present Mayor cared to honor it. Julius C. Johnson, my successor, was appointed not for his ability but because he had the backing of the C. A. C. members where he was employed seven years. Yours truly, A. O. Taylor. NO "RELIGIOUS" DANCES. Minister Scatthingly Denounces Methods of Dancing Masters Association. YORK, Pa.—When the American National Association of Dancing Masters named a slow minuet type of dance "the Wesleyan," in honor of John Wesley founder of Methodism, along with their protest to the Methodist church to remove its ban on dances. Rev. J. R. Straton, of York, characterized their efforts as "a silly, silly, sensuous stream of moral infamy." He said he expected the dance would soon be called the "Wesleyan Wiggle," and that others would take such names as the "Episcopal Embrace," the "Congregational Canter" and the "John the Baptist Bounce." A MARTYR TO X-RAYS. French Expert's Wonderful Devotion To Science Entails Sacrifice. PARIS.—Dr. Vallaint, a French x-ray expert who has worked in the radiographic department of a Paris hospital for 15 years, has lost both hands as a result of x-ray burns. He has also undergone years of pain and has suffered greatly from inability to sleep. It first became necessary to amputate his right hand. Then three fingers had to be removed from the other. He continued working with his remaining fingers until a short time ago, when he had to have his left arm cut off. It is said that further operations may have to be performed to save his life. Not a Risk "And what is your occupation?" "what is your occupation?" "I'm sorry, but my company won't write a policy on your class." "Why not? Surely I'm a good risk."

THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, JANUARY 28, 1922 PRIME SPORT NEWS By Allen Harrison Dorsey Portland, Ore.—Harry Wills easily won the decision over Sam Langford, last Tuesday night here. The Orleans miller hit the veteran fighter at will and could have put him away any time he felt like it. A large crowd was on hand and seemed to like the boxing skill displayed by Wills. NEW YORK CITY —Fight fans here are hearing queer reports of the first Wills-Tate fight at Portland, Ore., Jan. 2. The evident effort, it is said, was to put Wills in disfavor because of his growing prominence. The first plan was that Tate should win in the fifth round, but Wills practically put him out in the first, so Referee Louit gave Tate the fight on a claimed foul, that the 3,500 fans showed loud dislike to this unfair decision, the referee wished to force to hee their clamor and the goof of the battlers was set, which Wills was allowed a draw. "Dizzy's" Opinion Bill Dismukes, manager of the Pittsburgh Keystones, has a lot of respect for the Tate Stars, acquired through quite a number of defeats, last season. Listen to Dizzy's comment through a Pittsburgh paper: "The Tate Stars of Cleveland, under the leadership of 'Candy Jim' Taylor, should make trouble for any and all clubs of our baseball league, next season, if a franchise is obtained. It is a great hitting team, but they do not pack enough speed to be dangerous on the path of Taylor, Johnson and Boyd, who give any pitcher a case of weak-knees when they swing their bats before his eyes. Barnes, a young catcher, should rank with the best the coming season. The Tate Stars, at present, play in the most spacious and beautiful park, owned by members of the race." Acmes Lose Good Game Bringing with the team that feeling of basket superiority that exists in the east, the Baltimore Athletics expected "easy picking" here. Monday night at Eagles hall, but the Acme quintet put up a stubborn battle and went down fighting hard. An enthusiastic crowd of four hundred saw the Athenians win, 35 to 26. The game had hardly started when it looked like a runaway for the visitors but the home lads gradually improved and the first half found them trailing by only four CAR PILOTS NOW HAVE SORE FEET Physicians Are Treating Victims Who "Step on Gas" Too Long Without Rest. CLAIM EFFECTS NOT SERIOUS Disease Usually Follows Long Trip Through Which Driver Has Remained Continually at Wheel. —Origin Easily Traced. It is not all smooth sailing for the driver of a "gasoline wagon," according to physicians, who report that many motorists are returning from long trips with a decidedly noticeable limp. It is the new foot disease. But don't be alarmed; it is not at all serious. The disease is always acquired in the accelerator foot, the appendage that shoves the car over the road at a fast clip. Continued pressure of the foot on the accelerator button causes a displacement of the metatarsal bones, declares physicians who have diagnosed cases that have been brought to their attention. Its effects are not serious. Rest is the only cure. One Day turns trick. More than one motorist returns home limping in one day, doctors aver. Long trips cause strains on the car and the driver. The strain' on the accelerator foot sets up a nervous irritation that results in pain, and as a result the driver abandons his car with a limp every time he walks. The disease is commonly known as the "motor foot," but is technically called the "metatarsal displacement." The limp usually develops in the right foot, for few drivers are "left-footed." The disease usually follows a long overland trip, through which the driver has remained steadily at his post, and never has thought to give the pedal extremity a rest. Swell Doctors' Coffers The coffers of the chiropodists and orthopedic surgeons have taken on a silver lining since the arrival of the new hoof affliction. Many motor vacationists return to receive treatments. Massages and rest are said to cure the pains as rapidly as other treatments. Motorists accustomed to long drives scoff at the idea of the disease. If there is any such alliment, they declare, it easily can be thwarted by shifting feet. Some doctors call the alliment "acute foot strain." The origin of the disease is easily accounted for, they say. Releasing the tension of the accelerator spring, followed by more moderate driving, will diminish the prevalence of the alliment, physicians say. The Lucrative Accomplishment. "You should scatter more sunshine when you appear in public. Make your audiences laugh once in awhile," "Make 'em laugh!" echoed Senator Sorghum. "If I could do that you suppose I'd be sticking around at a statesman's salary? I'd be a movie comedian." Langford Loses Claim a Frame points. Brown, center of the Athenians, was a hard man for the Acmes to keep covered and he scored twenty of the winners' points. Poles also was a whirlwind for the visitors. Reed and Capt. Johns, until he was hurt, were very much in the game in the preliminary, the Tokalons lost, the Lend-A-hands in an interesting game, 21 to 15. COL. J. E. REED The New Treasurer of The Tate Baseball Co. President George J. Tate and Manager Jim Taylor went to Chicago, Wednesday, for what should prove to be the most important meeting of our National Baseball league to date. It will be held in the fall from Thursday to Saturday inclusive. A number of important issues will be thrown out, the most important of which a fair and equitable schedule. This has been a "bone of contention" for several years and Messrs. Tate and C. I. Taylor promise to take a leading part in the effort to see that all the teams with parks get an even break. Mgr. Taylor has his heart open in opening the Tates and several deals will be possible. He has a high regard for Britt, the great winning pitcher of the Columbus Buckeyes, and will try hard to land him. Barnes, the youth, who did most of the Tates' backstop work, last season, is a comer but an experienced head is much desired to aid him. Messrs. Tate and Taylor can be depended upon to do all in their power to advance the interests of the local club. REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING People go where they are invited —A. T. Stewart. Advertising is as necessary an expenditure as the payment of taxes or rent.—W. Atlee Burpee. Constant and persistent advertising is a sure prelude to wealth—Stephen Girard. Nothing except the mint can make money without advertising.—W. E. Gladstone. Printer's ink will make more of the public wear a pathway to your store. See? The merchant who considers riches a burden should never advertise. His store may be like a summer resort in January. Do YOU advertise? 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 never advertise- 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." Tobacco Consumption Increasing. WASHINGTON, D. C.—During 1919 there were placed on the American market 39 billion cigarettes, nearly eight billion cigars and 427 million pounds of chewing snuff and tobacco. Exports were: over 16 billion cigarettes and 766 million pounds of leaf tobacco, the latter valued at more than $25,000,000. Imports of leaf tobacco amounted to $86,000,000. Revenue collected in 1919 amounted to $205,000,000 of which North Carolina contributed the biggest share—$67, 000,000. New York and New Jersey ranked next in revenue. Drowned Rescuing Chicken. BUTLER, Pa.—Finding a chicken struggling in a water trough, Mrs. Emma Wilson bent over to lift it out. She lost her balance, plunged into the water and was drowned. She was subject to fainting spells and it is believed that she became unconscious when she fell into the tank. CHESTER, Pa.—Upon receiving a letter telling her that the $300 stolen from her a few months ago had been recovered, Mrs. Frank Shorthiski was overcome by the emotion and died. AN UNFORGETTABLE SIGHT "The trouble with most women is that they have no sense of responsibility outside of their homes." "There are exceptions.

Birmingham Age-Herald. Returning a Favor. "Have you ever made a serious effort to reform your fellow men?" "Often," replied Senator Sorghum. "But on one occasion I went too far. I got my community so thoroughly reformed that the folks began to study me to see if they couldn't discover some weak points that would permit them to recipitate." Returning a Favor. GOOD ADVICE ON DRIVING MOTORS Proficient Pilot Soon Learns to Watch Road Some Distance in Advance of Car. ALWAYS ALERT FOR DANGER Some Drivers Dodge Every Little Hole, Stone, Horseshoe and Broken Bottle With Short Turn of Some motorcar drivers run their cars along the road at nearly uniform speed, preserve an almost straight course, with scarcely perceptible deviations when the road is straight, avoiding small obstructions on the surface as if by good luck more than intention, and never getting into tight places in traffic that require sudden dexterous movements to prevent collision or other accident. On the other hand, there are drivers who dodge every little hole, stone, horseshoe and broken bottle with a short turn of the steering wheel that results in an unpleasant swaying of the car body; who slow up and start ahead with annoying frequency and are repeatedly treating their companions in the car to thrilling moments of suspense as they narrowly avert the running down of a slower moving pedestrian or a cyclist. Looking Ahead. These differences are noticeable alike on city streets and country roads, and are amply sufficient to make it a delight to ride with one friend at the wheel and almost torture to sit in the car behind another. You may be unconscious of the precise reasons that give you confidence in the one and make you apprehensive with the other, yet the feeling is there. In all probability the secret lies in this fine point in driving an automobile—the distance ahead of the car at which the driver focusses his gaze. The proficient driver has early learned to watch the road far in advance of his car—as far, in fact, as the road is visible. On a straight, level road this may be several miles, on a winding course as far as the next turn; on a hilly road the crest of the next rise, and on city streets as far as the state of the traffic permits the way to be seen clearly. Following this practice, all bad places and small objects on the surface of the road are seen long before the car comes to them and almost unconsciously the car is steered to avoid them. The action begins so early that the movement is practically imperceptible to other passengers, and the driver does not find it necessary to keep his eyes fixed upon the spot or object until it has passed; he has early insured that it will not be struck by the wheels, and so continues to keep his eyes focused away ahead. Thus he avoids dropping his eyes to watch all such near objects and raising them again to the focussing point, a practice that becomes wearisome to the driver and gives rise to unexpected emergencies. Indifferent Drivers. The novice or indifferent driver who concentrates much of his attention on the road directly in front of his wheels does not see impedimenta far enough in advance to begin a gradual movement in avoidance of them, but must make quick turns to swing out around the holes, stones and other obstructions. Then, with his attention fixed upon the particular thing or place he is avoiding, he is unprepared for the next one, which he has not seen. The human eye is like a camera in this respect that when focussed upon the distance the immediate foreground is also in fairly good focus, but when focussed only a few yards or two or three rods ahead, the background is very indistinct. Consequently the motorcar driver who watches the road at the point of disappearance finds that the foreground takes care of itself—that is, he subconsciously directs the movements of the car without any distraction of his attention from what is coming farther on. So his car follows a straighter course, with long, easy sinuosities that do not cause any swaying of the body, and his companion motorists scarcely realize that there are any bad places in the road over which they are traveling. Similarly in city traffic the proficient driver watches the movements of all the vehicles well in advance and, by judging their speed and noising their direction of motion, is on the alert for the slightest sign of an intention to slow down or turn into a side street or pass around a wagon or car going in the same direction. He goes as his own movements accordingly and easily avoids liability or running into another vehicle.

Under fit the federal govern- ment could penalize a state or any sub-division thereof if it “fails, neg- lects or refuses to provide and ‘maintain protection of the life of Any person within {ts jurisdiction ‘against a mob or riotous assent- lage.” ‘ “Three main points &re to be considered,” said Representative Burton in beginning his address, “they are: “1—The gravity and extent of the evil. “2-—The desirability of action by congress. “3—The validity of action by congress. “Lynching is the darkest blot upon an otherwise splendid civil- feation. This crime is prevalent only in the United States. ‘There is only one crime to which it can be compared, and that is cannibal- ism, At first lynching was limited to physical punishment. Lynchings were comparatively rare until after the Civil War, and even in the eighties the nugber of white per- sons lynched was nearly as great as those of the Negro race, but in the savagery of lynching, neither race nor sex has been spared; over 500 white men have. been Tynched and fifty-seven women have been the victims of mobs. Barbarities al- most beyond pellet have been per- petrated.

It must be frankly stated that certain decisions of the supreme court of the United States seem to be un- favorable to this measure. The one controlling argument for the bill, however, is that by ita very terms it seeks not ‘to assump the pollee power of the state nof to assume the punishment of ordinary cases of murder, but to punish the fren- nied “mobs which seek to punish real or alleged criminals, thereby assuming to themselves the most essential function of government in the administration of the law.

LAST NAME A MYSTERY Relatives Make Dash For Money When Doctor Calls Them For Nego- tlations—Money Hidden in Jars, ‘Socks, Pots, Pans and Kettles. NEW YORK—For years, Johanna, last name-a mystery, had led a se eluded life as cook for Dr. W. EB. Cald well, 58 West Fifty-Fitth street, The home was her refuge and once a year old did she fare forth—and that was for a new hat. As far as the doctor could observe the one time she wore & hat was when she traveled forth to purchase new headgear. So the years passed until recently when Johanna became critically il Dr. Caldwell did his utmost for her, But she grew steadily worse and the doctor, who did not even know her last name, asked her if she possessed any relatives. With vehemence, Jo hanna declareé that she was all alone in the world, “But,” complained the perplexed doctor, “you are extremely {ll and it you have any living relatives they should be notified.” Johanna turned her face to the wall but after long questioning gave the name of a “sister” and explained where, she could be found. After her death Dr.’ Caldwell went in search. of this relative, only to discover that the name and address were fictitious. Nothing remained but to go through Johanna’s belongings. No clues as to Telatives could be discovered, but in socks and hidden in jam jars and thrust in pots and pans and kettles and placed under carpets was money ‘—much of it. An accounting by the doctor brought the sum to approxi ay 7,000. ‘The need of heirs became evident ‘Dr. Galdwell remembered that at. one ‘time Jobanna had been friendly with a former maid. The doctor discov ‘ered this maid and after her memor} had been jogged a bit she remember ed that Jobanna had taken her once to a house on Thirty-Fourth street but had insisted on the maid's remain: ing without Dr. Caldwell went to this house and there discovered the relatives of Jo: hanna, ‘They were all over the prem ses.

Bringing forth the jam jars, socks kettles and pans, Dr, Caldwell began to count out the modest fortune left by the late Johanna, The sight ot the money was too much for. the be wildered relatives, who made a dash for the table wliere the transaction was taking place and. sought to get fistfuls sof money. It was with diff culty that Dr. Caldwell restrained them. After the money was counted but it was turned over to. Johanna’s sister, who divided it among the crowd. Funeral services were held in the Roman Catholic church in Twenty: Higth street. Dr. Caldwell said that he once attended the funeral services of a well-known physician and that the group pregent numbered seven tn dividuals. But in the case of Johanna the church was crowded to the doors ‘There were seven pews éf mourners and the other pews were filled Whether or not they were all rela tives of Johanna is a problem, but Dr. ‘Cauldwell thinks they were, * TWINS CELEBRATE. = Two Widows Are Feted by 75 De scendants.

My Dear Sir: Observing your let- ter in the Beacon-Journal, of this city, J venture to send you, under a sep- farate cover, the Ohio Law Reporter of Feb. 3, last, containing the opinion of the Court of Appeals in the Puritan Lanch Co. vs. Leonard H. Forman, de- cided in Akron, last fall, in which a Judgment for ($500) five hundred ‘dollars was sustained. If the Beacon- Journal fad known what was going on ‘in its own town, there would have been no occasion for criticism, editorially. THE LAW OF OHIO 13 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. IS IT OF ANY USE TO CON- ‘TEND FOR RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of sub- mitting to discrimination on the claim that their race “al- ways will be discriminated against.” The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal diserimina- tion, and are winning even s0- ial rights today. ‘The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than sub- mit, ‘The race that says it’s of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say, “Negroes are not worthy of equal rights; they are by na- fure without, self-respect and have no ‘guts.’ ‘The world re- spects only those who resent and resist proseriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abo- Iitionists, worthy: cf our own fathers who have d'ed in every war to vindieate the title of- their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race discrimiration may continue. To submit is to de- serve contemnt. — Boston (Mass.)
