OHIO-ANS DRIVEN OUT By a Mob of Southern White Brutes —Beaten First—Had Done No Wrong Miami, Fla.—Guarded by police, six members of Howard's Jazz orchestra, of Columbus, O., employed at a tourist hotel here, were, recently placed on a train bound for their homes. They were first lured to the outskirts of this little city and beaten by a gang of white brutes who, the orchestra members said, had warned them to leave Miami when they were Report has that the musicians had not conducted themselves in accordance with "southern customs." had sought to mingle with white people in the public parks, at public entertainments and that the leader of the orchestra had once left his place in the orchestra and stepped on the floor to direct a new dance. Isn't this awful, terrible, (down here) in "hell?" Poor, benighted, prejudiced "asses." The Howard orchestra was our only band of musicians employed in the "white" section of Miami. A white orchestra will take their places. Of course! SERIES OF U. N. I. A. MEETINGS On Wednesday, Feb. 15th, his excellency the American leader, Dr. J. W. H. Eason, and the Hon.

A GREAT RACE PHOTOPLAY "The Burden of Race," a "Real" Masterplay—A Tremendous Surprise—Stirring Romance. "The Burden of Race," the heart gripping story by Hadley J. Duncan, has been brought to the screen in a superb feature length photoplay produced by the Real Productions Corporation. It will be the attraction at The Temple Theatre, next week, Feb. 13 to 17. Included in the all-star Colored cast are, Eda Morton, Lawrence Chenault, Elizabeth Williams, Percy Verwayen, Mabel Young and Astair Ray. "The Burden of Race" is one of a series of like photoplays produced under the supervision of Robert Levy, the man who first put our actors into classic drama. It concerns the problem confronting a young couple—the man, a college athlete of the race; the young girl a daughter of a rich financier. The barrier of race is surmounted offers the basis of this unusually forceful picture. A breath of college life is injected into the Dead is as we have said, for athlete. In one big scene he is shown beating a field of sprinters in the track classic of the year. The entire photoplay is absorbingly interesting and must be seen to be fully appreciated. "JIMCROW Y" IN PORTLAND The Same As Everywhere Else in the North—Color-Line Breeder! The Portland (Ore.) Advocate congratulates Editor Harry C. Smith of The Cleveland (O.) Gazette on his fight against "jimcrowism." He is on the right track, keep it up. "jimcrow" begets "jimcrow" and no better witness of that fact is needed than right here in Portland. Some Colored women several months ago, assisted by whites, began a movement for a "jimcrow" Y. W. C. A., and soon thereafter the Y. M. C. A., which had always heretofore accepted the membership of our men, it is reported, closed its doors to them, and its slogan seems to be "no room for Colored." And who is to blame? Draw your own conclusion. Now, Editor Smith, you can tack Portland (Ore.) onto your list of towns that are fighting to keep out "jimcrowism." for Colored folk here are reaping the fruits that are the result of sowing seeds of "jimcrow" "Yes" and unless signs are wrong, they have not got half of what is coming to them—Portland (Ore.) Advocate. DR. WM. E. DUBOIS Talks Much Like Dr. Booker T. Washington Used To—Apparently, "Agin Social 'quality" Amalgamation by the white race is not the best solution of the race problem," said Dr. W. E. B. Dubois, who spoke on "The Future of the Dark Race," Saturday noon to the Civic club; Sunday night at North Church forum, St. Clair Ave. and E. 72nd St., and on Monday evening, at St. John's A. M. E. church. "If my daughter informed me that she was going to marry a white man, I should object," said Dr. Dubois. "A change of heart among the white people will go farther toward solving the race problem than education or economics. There is no future for the world that makes one race an injustice that dominates the world for own own good." "Is race prejudice based on economics?" Dr. Dubols was asked. nomics?" Dr. Dubois was asked. "No," he said. "When most colored persons were poor and ignorant, it was said economics was the cause of prejudice. Just as soon as the Negro 'came out of the alley' he lent to the bitterest kind of prejudice." Dr. Dubois said the feeling among colored people that "they don't want to associate with white" has been intensifying for the last five years. Also that "two-thirds of the inhabitants of the world were Colored people and that they were determined to wipe out injustice on the score of race, color or previous conditions."—Cleveland (Daily) Plain Dealer. MARLIN, TEXAS, NEWS (470) 755-1508 (To Feb. 15, 1922). The First Baptist church held a conference, the last two Thursday nights. The first session was a stormy one lasting until midnight. Reporter W. B. Fleming, presided. Bros. John Rucker, W. D. Manning, Thomas Murphy, Tom Solders and Simon E. Meyers "held the moderator's feet to the fire" until Prof. Jesse Washington sprang to the rescue. In spite of this help, the motion to add unordained "associate deacons" to the regular board was lost, by a heavy majority. The purpose of having additional men was to aid in raising the indebtedness of the church which is about $1,500. The moderator was badly mixed (along parliamentary lines.)—Mrs. D. C. Vincent, age 78, who died recently, left six lots and one house to her four children; one lot to her grand-daughter, Mrs. Carrie Elias. The husband (ste father to her children) was the insurance ($200 from Eastern Star insurance) the lodge and courts of the house have paid $7 to undertake Washington; for immediate relief, $50 each to D. C. Vincent and the Mrs. Waco Barton. To the other three children is promised $100 each, to be paid in April by the lodge. Tom and Joel Talton of Auto, who visited their brother-in-law, Jim Smith—Cornellus Johnson of Waco spent Sunday with his cousin, Miss Maud Lewis.—Lois Williams of Mart is visiting her grandmother, Mrs. Diana.—Arthur Dykes of Belton is visiting his sister, Mrs. Robert Goodson—Chas. A. Randolph of Chilton was in town, Saturday. Mrs. Lulu Conley is visiting her father's town in East Texas.—Clifton A. Moore has sold his blacksmith shop.—Mrs. Addie J. Johnson, who has been confined to her bed four months, is improving.—Quarterly conference was held. Monday night, at St. Paul's A. M. E. church; Rev. H. P. Evans, pastor, and Rev. R. Rieke, pastor, Mrs. Lulu Conley and daughter, Christina, have returned, accompanied by the former's other daughter, Mrs. Luella Rucker and her little girl, Devora, who may spend some time here.—Mrs. Sally Robinson and Mrs. Rosie Donaldson were ill—Carter Warren of Corsicana has returned home. He visited Jack Warren—Robert Morton is certainly a faithful young church worker.—Call, 'phone, 205 for the Gazette. Bullock Freed! Ottawa, Canada.—Matthew Bullock of North Carolina has won his fight to avoid deportation to the United States to face trial on a charge of inciting to riot. Announcement that the fugitive might remain in Canada has been made by Charles Stewart, minister of the interior and immigration. After a cabinet meeting, Mr. Stewart said by Bullock would be freed at once by the immigration authorities at Hamilton, Ontario, where he had been confined, pending decision of the case. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS "They'll Regret It"—"Very Brazen"— "He's Not Ashamed." Three Literary Gems—The Dyer Bill, the Newberry Case and Democratic Leaders in Congress— U. S. Senator "Pat" Harrison. They'll Regret It Before the Democratic leaders, in Congress and out of it, get through with the question of national aid in the suppression of lynching they are going to regret the stand they are taking and the efforts the Democratic minority is making to prevent the passage of the anti-lynching bill now pending. They will be sorry that their party has been placed in opposition to an honest attempt to curtail if not eradicate the brutal crime of mob murder. The attacks on the Dyer bill are based on the ground of interference with the constitutional rights of the states and the limitations placed upon the power of the national government, but fair to liberal men and women feel that if they are anything which justifies the fullest use of national power and possibly a free interpretation of the organic law of the country it is suppression of lynching. The question of constitutionality may well be left to the supreme court, and if the enemies of the pending bill had any confidence that it was indeed in conflict with the constitution they would take that constitution. What they really fear is that the measure they attack would give colored men in the south too much protection from mobs. They think that the Democrats of many southern states would resent bitterly any attempt to use the power of the nation to check, in some degree, their habit of mob violence against men and women of Negro good faith with the issue joined on this point the Democratic against the stand the Democrats are making will be disastrous to their party in many districts in the north in which the great majority of the voters will feel more sure than before that there is something which ties the Democratic organization to certain phases of brutality and crime in places where it is supreme. Very Brazen Men who have some sense of proportions and balances are not wholly callous to political impudence must marvel at the unabashed and even joyous effrontery of the Democrats in the U. S. Senate who sit in seats virtually stolen by fraud and lawlessness and then shout their horror at the advertising bills of the Newberry campaign. How can they do it? How can men who know they would be thrown out by an honest and unobstructed election, in which all citizens of their own states were given their rightful privileges, in accordance with the U. S. constitution, how about the large expenditures of Senator Newberry's friends for purposes which were in themselves horrible when paper was not claimed that anyone was cheated in the Michigan election. It is not charged that any persons qualified as voters were prevented from casting their ballots exactly as they pleased. It is not pretended that any citizens of Newberry's state were induced to vote for him against their will. It is not said that anyone voted who did not have a legal right to do so. It is not seriously disputed that the majority of the lawful voters of Michigan were in favor of Newberry and against Ford. Yet men who owe their places in the Senate to the shameless nullification of the fifteenth amendment to the What the Dyer Bill Provides. What the Dyer Bill Provides. The new Dyer Anti-Lynching bill (passed by the House of Representatives, recently) does not provide for the enforcement by the federal courts of the criminal law of the several states. Under its terms the prosecution of criminals cannot be transferred to federal jurisdiction. The bill merely makes lynching a federal offense and makes it a federal crime for a state officer to neglected to take reasonable measures to prevent it. In addition it provides for a forfeiture of $10,000 from any county in which lynching occurs, to be paid to the relatives of the victim, or to the United States if he has none.—N. Y. Nation. "What We Really Want" Monrovia, Liberia, W.

It takes amazing impudence and brazen indifference to the contempt of honest men, in all sections and of all parties, who know the facts and desire nothing but justice and truth. He's Not Ashamed Senator "Pat" Harrison, of Mississippi, lost no time in giving his hearers his own measure at the City Club luncheon, last Saturday, and he was not much slower in letting them make a mental picture of his party, in his state. He presented all who listened to him with an accurate description of himself when he started by saying that now it was the hardest thing in the world to "sized up" a partisan horn-tooter, a noisy, windy, blather-skite person such as Harrison has often proved himself in the Senate. His picture of Mississippi Democracy came at the end of his harangue when, in answer to a question, he told how the majority of the people of his state were disfranchised. The senator admitted, or boasted, that no one could cast a ballot who had changed his place of residence in Mississippi, unless he had paid a poll tax not later than February, preceding the election, that no citizen could vote unless he could read and write, and that no one could exercise the suffrage who was not able to answer any clause of the state constitution which the judges of election might select. And Harrison vally acknowledged that if the Fifteenth amendment to the U. S. constitution were honestly enforced and loyalty obeyed in Mississippi, he would have his state. Yet he waved his arms like falls, swaited until he had to handle his sweating and crimson face, and used many hard words in denouncing the use of large sums of money, chiefly for advertising, in promoting Senator Newberry's candidacy in Michigan in 1918. It took "nerve" for a man holding a seat in the Senate which was plainly obtained by the brazen crime of nullifying the U. S. constitution and disfranchising more than half of his state to come to Ohio and scold Michigan for much campaign advertising and some paid work at the polls, on election day. It was a performance which recalled the Savior's denunciation of the hypocrite who was warned first to remove the beam which was in his own eye so that he might see clearly to take out the mote that was in his brother's eye. But assurance is Harrison's strong point. He is rich in "nerve" and noise. For which reason, of the main, he was a head of the bureau of the Cox campaign for President.

FEBRUARY 11, 1922 Just one indication of what Republican reconstruction is doing is the fact that in 49 principal woolen mills employment increased 119.9 per cent during 1921. The figures have been compiled by the bureau of labor statistics. Having abandoned his fight upon the Jews, Henry Ford has started a campaign against the Japanese and still another to "rescue the money question from cranks and brigands." Strange campaign to be started by the man who thought he could get the boys out of the trenches by Christmas, 1915, by sending a peace ship to northern Europe, and who has made a fortune of something like a billion dollars in seventeen years. The next four months of the session of Congress promise to be prolific of results. The foreign debt refunding bill is to be followed by the soldiers bonus bill, the ship subsidy bill, and the tariff bill. Along with those measures of supreme importance will go a large number of other bills of more or less special industrial or local interest. AN ACADEMIC BOGEY-MAN. Dr. E. R. Seligman, professor of economics at Columbia university, recently delivered an address in which he said that if the allies paid their $10,000,000,000 indebtedness to this country it would inflate American currency to an unheard of degree and paralyze American industry for an indefinite period. This is undoubtedly true and yet we do not see the occasion for Prof. Seligman making the statement. Nobody expects our European debtors to hand over the several car loads of money which would be necessary to liquidate the present aggregate indebtedness. It is entirely superfluous, therefore, for the distinguished professor to tell us, as he does, that the "Goblins 'll git us, if we don't watch out." The most sanguine advocates of collection of the debt to us believe that it will take something like 25 years for the European nations to pay this $10,000,000,000. They can make these payments spread over a period of 25 years without causing even a ripple on the surface of our industrial affairs. All that we ask today is that our debtors evidence their indebtedness by definite obligations with a specified period of maturity and a specified rate of interest so that the present uncertainty may be removed and the tax-payers of the country may know what revenue they must raise which, together with the payments from our debtors, will enable us to meet our own national obligations represented by liberty bonds and our current federal expenditures. Prof. Seligman may be a great professor of economics, but he is scarcely a success at raising bogeymen to scare the American people into consenting to a cancellation of the debts due us from the allies. BROWN AGAIN The statements, in a set of resolutions that some of the members of Lane Metropolitan C. M. E. church have signed and had published, undoubtedly at the request of the pastor, L. H. Brown, are not borne out by the facts, according to some of the oldest and best members and ex-members of that church. They inform The Gazette and insist that a large number of members of Lane Metropolitan C. M. E. church have Men's and Young Men's Suits and Overcoats $25 and $30 Values Just it since as well as before the recent election, and that others are doing so almost every week now; that the church is steadily going backward and has been for quite a year, financially, and in the matter of membership, etc.; that Brown was NOT returned to the church by the bishop "to the delight" of hardly one-fourth of the members; that officers as well as members desired Brown's removal from the pastorate of the church and so indicated, by personal request and petitions of members and prominent citizens of this city, at the Indianapolis conference of the C. M. E. Church which met, last fall, and that Bishop Phillips knows this; that the statement that Lane Metropolitan church "is growing" is not true and that the stewards and trustees who signed the resolutions know it: Furthermore, that Brown is facing action in the courts because of his and other church officers' mistreatment of Mrs. R. B. Vinson who was evicted from church property while she was critically ill and her husband, Rev. R. B. Vinson, was out of the city. The Vinsons have been loyal members of the C. M. E. Church for many years, too. The Gazette regards the resolutions as a very weak attempt to give Brown "a bill of health." Remove him, Bishop Phillips, and save what is left of Lane Metropolitan church! --- If the local newspapers have quoted Dr. Wm: E. DuBois correctly, he certainly must be trying to follow in the foot-steps of Dr. Booker T. Washington, deceased. Wonder what he is after, this time. The other time, it was that captaincy in the army, you know. To just how low a plane things have drifted in ward 11 of this city, in the last six years under the political domination of "Starlight" Boyd (deceased) and his lieutenant, Councilman Tom Fleming, is perhaps best illustrated by a little episode that occurred, Wednesday morning, in Ramsey's barber shop, cor. E. 30th St. and Scovill Ave., in which (episode) one Dana English, a city job-holder (when this was written, Wednesday, and for some years previous), and a leading "Star" and Tom eleventh ward-worker, and the editor of The Gazette were the participants. The latter while In Our Bargain Basement THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, FEBRUARY 11, 1962 waiting for a street car had stepped into the shop to have his shoes cleaned. English came in soon after and immediately took occasion to notify the editor "to keep his name out of his paper," meaning The Gazette. Our reply was that we would use our judgment as to that without any instructions from him or any one else. That seemed to greatly perturb the big strapping fellow who immediately said that he would kill us if we did not keep his name out of the paper. What we said, in a perfectly proper way to him in reply, it is hardly necessary to repeat because we feel that all who know us will not have much difficulty in imagining. Suffice it to say—it was a plenty! There were a number of persons in the shop at the time who heard the cowardly threat of the fellow who by the way is just about half again as large as the writer, the editor of The Gazette, and of course one can imagine how they felt although none of them volunteered to express themselves at the time. Later on themselves tried to leave the impression that he did not say he would kill us, if, etc., but too many had heard him. Indeed, it would not have been difficult, we feel sure, for persons on the outside of the shop, if there had been any, to have heard him. As we have said, this little episode is the best indication of the real condition of things in ward 11 under the Boyd-Fleming regime of the last five or six years that we have noted since the death of "Starlight" whom the Lord took away just one month to the day from last election day "in answer to our prayers," say members of Antioch and other churches in the ward. Mr. Mayor, don't you think the city can worry along without the services of Dana English? We ask this of you, in all fairness because you understand this article and the individual better than most people because of your long service in the police department of Cleveland, as patrolman, officer and finally as chief of police. With him should go such FitzGerald-Maschke"Starlight"-Fleming hold-overs as Pete Hill, pensioned patrolman; Steve Ball and others who "all but worked their heads off" trying to defeat you and every other candidate that did not have the "O.

Charles Lucien Skinner, one of the progressive young men in Washington, D. C., journalism he became the publisher and editor of the Washington Bee, formerly owned by the late Calvin Chase. The fight of Fred Rector and G. C. Parker, (white), to gain control of the million dollar (oil lands) estate of Sarah Rector, our wealthiest girl, is on in the courts of Muskegue, Okla. The N. A. A. C. P. announces that it has spent $35,000 in its ten-year fight on lynching. That is very little more than the organization pays its secretaries, Dubois, Johnson, White, Bagnall and Pickens, each year. The Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America announces the selection of Dr. George E. Haynes, as one of its secretaries, to promote the work of its new Commission on the Church and Race Relations. Gov. P. B. S. Pinchback's will leaves $1 each to his sons, Robert, Walter and Bismarck, and gives the rest of his estate, including premises at 1335 Twelfth St., N. W., Washington, D. C., valued at $5,000, to his widow, Mrs. Nina Emily Pinchback. Wm. E. Dammond, C. E., former resident of Detroit and London, Eng., is an associate editor of the N. Y. City Star, our only daily paper.

P. bill, first drawn and presented to Congressman Dyer but a new bill drafted by the Judiciary Committee of the House of Representatives, says the N. Y. Nation; Oswald Garrison Villard, editor. It was while addressing members of the Council of the Robert Gould Shaw House Assn., Jan. 16, '22, in the Copley-Plaza, Boston, that Miss Maria Baldwin, for 15 years principal (master) of the Agassiz School, Cambridge, Mass., one of our most prominent women, collapsed in the middle of her discourse and died, within a few minutes. An end must be put to this absurd legend of the inferiority of the black races. It is based solely upon the tradition of slavery and is not at all flattering to the white races.—Gen. Mangin, great French soldier. Twenty-nine million dollars in accrued assets, numerous oil wells, and a big oil refinery in Clalborne Parish, Louisiana, have all been found by the Louisiana Supreme Court to be the property of Miss Lillian Turner, as sole heiress of her mother, Mrs. Lona McGhee, both Afro-Americans. Reports from Washington, D. C., last week, announced that Arthur J. Froe, a W. Va. lawyer, had been chosen recorder of deeds of the District of Columbia on recommendation of Senator Elkins, W. Va., after a conference at the White House between President Harding, Elkins, Representative Goodykoontz and Froe. Although it may be news to many, it is a fact that after his death an article, written by Dr. Brooker T. W. article, was printed in leading magazine, in which he repudiated segregation which he had so long championed.—Editor John Q. Adams in the St. Paul (Minn.) Appeal. President Harding is going to name another Afro-American for Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia, and he will probably be Wm C. Mathews, of Boston, to carry a sea seal in Massachusetts. He was former U. S. Assistant District Attorney of that city. Values in Business. I believe thoroughly, as everyone knows, in education — in all phases of education. I believe, as well, in all the activities and all the responsibilities. But somehow, I feel that the Negro, like the rest of mankind, must learn to work out more of his problems along business lines than he has in the past; he must learn as others have learned, that a great deal of the so-called race problems can and must be worked out at the same time.

THE WAY STREET RISCO POP KEE! THEN I SAW O'MALLEY, O'MALLEY, O'MALLEY STLOUIS PRIME SPORT NEWS By Allen Harrison Dorsey The official entrance of the Tate Stars in our national baseball league, pleases local fans greatly. A good start was made, last year, when the Stars were only affiliated with the league. The support was good, considering the hard times. Pres. Rube Foster in an address at the meeting mentioned the fact that Cleveland had one of the finest baseball stadiums owned by our people in the country. This is something to be proud of and our purpose should hold in mind, in increasing multitudes, the support of the team and its park. The Tate Co., holders of the local franchise, is making a herculean effort to sell between $3,000 and $4,000 worth of advance seat tickets for the purpose of making necessary improvements in the park, this spring. When it is remembered the management of the Cleveland Indians sold $70,000 worth of tickets, two months before the season began last spring, the Tates and have no difficulty in securing the modern stadium. Let everybody, who can do so, boost this effort. By united effort we can help make Cleveland one of the best sport-loving cities (for us) in America. Acmes Trim Pioncers. The Pioneers, local basketball champs for the past two years, in their first attempt to stage a comeback, this season, received a sound thrashing from the speedy Acmes, Monday night at Eagles hall. Score, 35 to 17. At the end of the first half the Acmes were trailing 10 to 7. but "AI" Yancy must have told his boys something in the interim for they came back with blood in their eyes and proceeded to "mop up" the Pioneers. Reed and Johns were especially effective for the winners, the latter scoring 16 points. The Tokalons had another one of their tight battles, nosing out the Superiors, 21 to 19. "Bud" Mitchell again played a wonderful game for the "Toks." Norfolk Deals a Kayo. ATLANTA, Ga.-Kid Norfolk easily maintained his standing as the best of our light heavyweights when he put Tiger Flowers, the pride of Atlanta, down for the count, in the third round here, last week. Flowers figured on staying the limit by keeping, at a safe distance, but Norfolk kept mixing in and sent his telling right against the local boy's jaw. A large crowd enjoyed the fight.

NEITHER LIE NOR STEAL The Latest Report Is From the Belgian Congo Where Missionary Finds Pygmies Little Removed From Ape Men—Average About Four Feet. NEW YORK—A recent moving picture expedition in Africa resulted in the reported discovery of a race of pygmies of such primitive characteristics that they are but little removed from ape men. They were found in the forests of the Belgian Congo by Dr. L. J. Vandenbergs, Catholic missionary and anthropologist, whose exploration covered 11 months. It is claimed that adults of this pygmian race, known as the "Mambuti," average about four feet in height. The males can move with surprising agility through tree branches. Although interesting as this bit of news may be, we hear of a strong denial from abroad, Lady Stanley, widow of the celebrated African explorer, Henry M. Stanley, asserts that her husband made the discovery as far back as 1888, while on his search for Enim Patasha. His book is cited in proof of her claim. As a matter of fact, pygmies have been "discovered" and described since the time of Homer, the Greek poet of 1000 B. C. They were recorded as being ill-favored but very honest, which quality appears to have clung to them to this day. It is said that these pygmies neither lie nor steal and are strictly monogamous—virtues which would put some of our own race to shame. The word "pygmy" comes from the Greek "pygme," representing the measure from the elbow to the hand. Ancient writers seemed to revel in making these dwarfs as small in stature and as fantastic as imagination would allow. Homer says that every Spring they were attacked by the cranes on the coasts of Oceanus and were devoured. Later writers place them at the mouths of the Nile, in the region of Thule (or Ireland), and in subterranean dwellings on the eastern slope of the Ganges mountains. It was said that they cut down every corn-ear with an ax; that when Hercules came into their country they climbed up to his goblet by means of ladders to drink from it; and while he was sleep two whole armies of them fell upon his right hand and two upon his left, but Hercules rolled them all in his lion's skin. Swift took this Grecian legend and brought forth his "Gulliver's Travels," which are the delight of every young boy and girl—although they were written as a political satire. Aristotle did not believe that the stories about pygmies were utterly fabulous; his interpretation of them was that they were a diminutive tribe in upper Egypt who rode very small horses and lived in caves. Ctesias represented a nation of them as inhabiting India; Pliny traced them in transgregative India. Du Challieu found pygmies in the mountainous country of the Ogobal. They are called Obongos and are about four and a half feet high. They live in the midst of negro tribes of ordinary stature and subsist chiefly on animal food, but partly also on the roots, berries and nuts which they find in the forests. Schweenfurt, between the years 1868 and 1871, came in contact with a pygmean race in the heart of Africa. There are also the Akka and Batwa pygmies in Central Africa. CHAMPAGNE "MEDICINE." France's Exports as Great Now as Before "Prohibition." PARIS.—Prohibition enthusiasts in the United States who assert that America is "dry" are kidding themselves. America may be "dry", but if that is true then America must be very sick, for just as much champagne is being exported to the land of liberty now as before the prohibition law went into effect. Now, however, it is being imported, not, as a beverage—oh, no!—but as a medicine. "Judging from our recent orders which are keeping our clerks busy night, day and Sundays, I should say that champagne is rapidly becoming the most popular brand of medicine the United States has ever known," a well-known wine merchant remarked the other day. PUDDLING BY MACHINERY. Warren, O., Plant Will Mark Innovation in Steel Industry. BORN IN steel industry WARREN, Ohio — A plant is to be erected near this city, which will be an innovation in the steel industry. Iron will be puddled by machinery, which has heretofore never been accomplished. "Puddling," or producing steel from cast iron by partial elimination of carbon, revolutionized the steel industry years ago. Though this process does not make the finest grades of steel, such as that used for knives, it is practical for ordinary "low" or "mild" steel such as rail road rails, and it has greatly reduced the cost of steel production. The new plant will cost $5,000,000. The "Goat." "Have you ever been arrested for running your automobile too fast?" "No; what do you suppose I'm paying a chauffeur for?" — Boston Transcript. USE FOR POISON GAS. French Use Chlorine For Cleaning And Diall Infecting Clothes PARIS.—At the close of the World War the question: What shall we do with stocks of poison-gases? proved a puzzling one in most belligerent countries. Industrial uses were found for some but large quantities, representing enormous outlays of money for raw materials, labor, etc., were thrown away because no one knew how to make them serve any useful purpose and they were too dangerous to be kent about. The French have discovered a way to utilize such gases, particularly chlorine, for cleaning and disinfecting clothes. The garments to be treated are placed inside an air-tight steel chamber whose door is closed hermetically. Valves are opened, permitting the poison gas and compressed air to flow into the tank in the proportions which experience has taught gives the best results. An electric heater installed beneath the chamber and so arranged that it is completely under the control of the operator raises the temperature of the gaseous mixture as high as possible without burning the clothes. After the gas has acted on the garments for a few minutes an exhaust valve is opened, the gas valve is closed and compressed air blows the gas out through the exhaust pipe into a neutralizing tank a safe distance away. The garments, thoroughly disinfected and cleaned, may then be taken out. The use of such gas in the new cleaning and disinfecting chamber is expected to prove highly advantageous in hospitals, where patients suffering from communicable diseases are treated. Heretofore it has been the practice to burn dangerously infected linens because satisfactory sterilization was impracticable. COW'S RIB FOR SPINE. Fourteen-Inch Bone Substitute Breaks Surgical Records. LYNN, M.ass.—William Cosgrove has returned to his home here after undergoing an operation in the Massachusetts General Hospital, where surgeons removed 14 inches of his spine and substituted a cow's rib of equal length, the surgeons declaring it to be the first operation of its kind in the country. The operation was necessitated by a kick from a horse which Cosgrove received 10 years ago. While driving a jitney bus the constant jolting of the machine lately resulted in partial paralysis. Surgeons told him that the operation was to be difficult. The ordinary bone grafted is seldom more than two or three inches, and when it was decided that 14 inches must be substituted, Cosgrove insisted that the method of operation be explained to him. The cow's bone was boiled for 48 hours, then chilled and filed into shape, Cosgrove watching the work of preparation before going under the knife. Cosgrove was placed in a plaster cast after the operation. Physicians say it will only be a few weeks before he will be able to walk with the aid of crutches. ALASKA GOING BACK. Capital City, Nome, Once 15,000 Population, New But 200. NOME, Alaska.—Within the last 10 years the population of the northern most territory of the United States has dropped from 64,366 to 54,718, or almost 15 per cent. There are now over 29,000 whites and 25,000 natives. Nome, the capital, which 20 years ago when gold-seekers were flooding the country had a population of some 15,000 has now but 200 inhabitants, according to passengers on the Victoria, the last ship to leave Alaska this season. Of the 523 passengers from Alaska, 350 were from Nome, and many of them declared they would not return. Nome got its name in a most peculiar way. When the government surveyors first mapped Alaska they noticed a cape that had no name. So they made a pencil note on the map at that point—"Name Cape." The engravers took "Name" to be "Nome," supposing it to be the old Russian name of the cape. And thus the name came into use and became permanent. FOUR-LEGGED ROOSTER. Despite Prohibition, He Makes Appearance in Western Penna, Town. FAYETTE CITY, Pa.—The greatest freak of the feathered world is claimed by a 'local poultry fancier who owns a four-legged rooster, hatched last Spring. All four legs are well developed and the rooster is reported to, be able to "lick" any chicken, cat or dog that enters his domain. The two extra legs on the fowl are straight out and are close together, protruding from what should be the breast bone. About the same time the "four-pedaled" fowl came in to the world another came with only one leg, and the two "freaks" consoladed each other until some time ago, wehn the one-legged was stolen. Someone Please Claim $22,000. NEW YORK—By law all unclaimed deposits in banks in New York have to be published so that owners may be located and have their money returned to them. One New York bank this fall enumerated 37 accounts totaling an unclaimed.$20,000; one balance alone exceeded $22,000. This deposit was made in November, 1911, and the owner has not since been heard from. His Retort. Mrs. Exe—What a change one little woman can make in a man's life Mr. Wye—Yes, and, by George, what a heap of change she requires while she's doing it! Brought French Wife. NEW YORK CITY.—Harry Demerite, 23-year-old colored war veteran, who lost both his legs in the World War while fighting in France with the Canadian forces, was admitted to this country, Jan. 28, '22, by Ellis Island authorities. He brought his wife, Mary, 19-year-old French girl, and their three-year-old daughter, Doris. Following release from Ellis Island they went to the British consulate, this city, to obtain the necessary papers to permit their entrance to the Bahama Islands, where Demerite says he intends to start in business. Ohio's Anti-L Leads the Countr Against The Mob and Work of a Member —Also Ohio's Ci OBERLIN. — Ashley Abbott, a resident of Oberlin for the past five years, coming here from Cincinnati, where he had resided for many years, died last week Thursday. He leaves a widow, Mrs. Fannie Abbott; a daughter, Mrs. R. I. Reynolds of McCaskill, Ark.; a sister, Mrs. M. A. Mitchell, of Cedar Falls, Iowa, and two brothers, Arthur T. Abbott of Cleveland and Joseph Abbott of Cleveland, McKenzie. Also a number of nephews and nieces. Funeral, last Saturday; burial here. Attorney Seimo Glenn's bitter complaint against Judge Alva R. Corlett's recent "questionable" decision in the case of a Mrs. Silva Fortune, (a member of the race), against one Geo. Palicha, both of the Broadway section of this city, reminds The Gazette of the fact that Glenn supported Corlett for election to the bench, at last fall's election, as well as Mayor FitzGerald and Councilman Fleming, "Starlight"*s candidate for the City Council in ward 11. Corlett was Mayor FitzGerald and a McKee organization, and a McKee organization, candidate, too. November 8, 211. Glenn did this in the face of the "coarse" turn-down by Maschke (FitzGerald and Corlett's chief) of himself and his committee, S. E. Woods, Dr. E. J. Gregg, Atty. Wm. R. Green, Dwight R. Williams and Major (Rev.) W. T. Anderson, when they (and Glenn) went to him (Maschke), early last fall, in an effort to have Glenn appointed an assistant police prosecutor or something akin. In spite of the foregoing, Glenn supported the Maschke - FitzGerald - "Starlight" Fleming combination (last November), which included Corlett, and fought "with might and main" the good people of ward 11, led by the Central Body, who were striving to their utmost to be the miserable "Starlight" Boyd-Fleming - Maschke - FitzGerald rule and thus improve the living conditions of the moral status of that ward. Now Glenn is complaining of injustice done him and his client by Judge Corlett. Those chickens are but coming home to roost, brother. Take your medicine as so many others of the kind are, these days.

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 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." Ohio's Anti-Lynching Law Against The Mob and Lynch-Murder-The Work of a Member of The Race Also Ohio's Civil Rights Law. Section 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279.

Our mob-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took Hon. Harry C. Smith, the editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2.) Section 6279.

A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent disability to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 182 6.) Section 6282. The legal representative of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any such injury occurred. Such sum unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor children surviving such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among the rest of the family. The law requires the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v 162 6.) Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by such a mob. (93 v 162 8.) Section 6284.

Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal representatives of a person killed or seriously injured by a mob from any of the persons co-possessed with mob. A such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.) Section 6288. If a mob carries a prisoner into another county, or comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came, unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or dispurse such mob. (93 v 163 11.) Section 6289. This chapter shall 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—(ia the statutes) under the heading od. representative of victim of lynching.ury by mob trying to lynch another. costs in tax levy. t member of mob. t another county. lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v 163 12.) OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many reader- of The Gazette we print below the text of Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the 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 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. Judge Grant's Opinion of the Law. Misled by the foolishly manufactured outcry 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: 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. IS IT OF ANY USE TO CON-TEND FOR RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race "always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal discrimination, and are winning even social rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. 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 no means without self-respect and have no 'guts.'" The world respects only those who resent and resist prescriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have d'ed in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights to all, long since the long race discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt. — Boston (Mass.) Guardian. ZETTE Afte subscribe Afte ous!
