THE INJUNCTION GRANTED! --- "Thats" Every Afro-American Should Know the Republican party is the only political agency yet established rough which the race has received any of its advantages; that while the failure of a competent and adequate program has been due to Democratic opposition and obstruction, yet all that the race enjoys and may expect, has only come through the active support and assistance of that party. That The Republican party is responsible for the enactment of all remedial legislation written on the statute books of the different states and the Nation establishing our rights and privileges, as well as responsible for the defeat of all the many forms of iniquitous measures proposed by the Democratic party in every session of Congress since the War of the Rebellion. That The Democratic party in its eight consecutive years of administration not only disrupted the economic and financial stability of our country, and hastened the debacle of industrial depression which now confronts the Nation, but openly and flagrantly insulted the race by the summary discharge of all our employees, with the exception of a few securely protected by the operation of civil service laws. That The Democratic party throughout its whole history has been and now is the open-sponsor for all the nefarious legislation arraying class against class. That The Democratic party urged and put into effect segregation in all its hideous forms in the Government service. That The Democratic party in power means the rule of the solid South and the enforcement through legislation of their unfair ideas concerning the inequality of the races. The Democratic party's first act was to humiliate and insult our few office-holders, at Washington, D. C., by denying them the use of public wash-rooms, and rest-rooms which privileges they had been enjoying (and are justly entitled to) without hindrance for forty years, by placarding the walls with the signs "for white only," in furtherance of their ideas of fomenting ill-feeling between the races and impressing their ideas of inferiority. That One of the first acts of the Republican administration was to destroy these signs of humiliation and to insist that each government employee was the equal of the other. That The Democratic party in power means, segregation of our employees in the government service; segregation on all public utilities; segregation in schools; segregation in all places of amusement, instruction and recreation; and a general set-back of the race as a whole in its efforts at advancement and the attainment of equal rights and privileges. That The Republican party in power means the recognition of the claims of the race in its fight for equality before the law; as well as the enforcement of its claims for the equal enjoyment of all the privileges of an advanced citizenship. That The Republican party in power means the enactment and enforcement of legislation against lynching; against segregation; against the deprivation of all our rights as American citizens. That The Dyer Anti-lynching bill was introduced and sponsored and passed by a Republican House of Representatives, for which each Ohio member voted, and that most of them are candidates for re-election and should be whole-heartedly supported by every voter of the race. That The ONLY POSSIBLE way for this bill to become a law will be through a REPUBLICAN Senate. Senator Willis in a speech at the opening of the Republican campaign in the city of Columbus, on August 22nd, ably stated the position of the party with reference thereto, stating that he personally favored the bill, that it was just and SHOULD be passed. That The Republican party and candidates in convention assembled embodied in their platform a plank unqualifiedly endorsing the measure and urged the immediate passage of the same. That Congressman Fess, now the Republican candidate for U. S. senator, as a member of the powerful rules committee of the House of Representatives, voted that THIS BILL should have precedence on the calendar so that it should be considered by the last Congress. That Colonel Carmi Thompson, the present candidate for Governor, is a candidate with a record in public office; that while Secretary of State of this commonwealth he established without precedent, the principle of adequate representation in the public service, by giving employment to four members of our race as clerks in responsible positions in his office. HE DESERVES and WILL RECEIVE the hearty support of EVERY voter, for through his election and that of the entire Republican ticket our interests will be most securely guaranteed. These facts and conditions confronting you, it is the duty of each member of the race to see that the full vote of the race is given to the Republican ticket on Tuesday, Nov. 7, 1922.

The Ukranian National Chorus and Hampton Singers Give a Fine Folk Song Concert Hampton, Va.—Folk music of the east and west met on comparable terms, through the cooperation of Max Rabinoff of New York, when the wonderful Ukrainian National Chorus, dressed in gorgeous, active, peasant costume, and our Hampton Institute chorus and choir, recently sang in Ogden Hall, Hampton Institute, the famous folk songs of "Little Russia" and our religious folk songs or "spirituals" of the "Old South" before a warmly enthusiastic audience of over 2,000 representative citizens of both races. This matinee concert was given under the austries of our Musical Art Society of Hampton Institute, of which R. Nathaniel Dett is the conductor. The Ukrainian singers were enclosed again and again. They were greeted with sympathy and fervor by the $50 Hampton Institute students who sang to them, under the leadership of Paige I. Lancaster, four of our folk songs—"Ride our Jesus," Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen." "Look Away in the Heaven" and "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot." Some of the Ukrainian singers declared that in all their travels through Germany, France and Belgium they had never heard such thrilling chorus-singing as that which was furnished to them by our Hampton Institute students. They fairly danced with joy behind the curtains, after the Hampton students sang for them our primitive and developed folk melodies. Alexander-Koshetz, the famous Cossack conductor-composer, after hearing our Hampton Institute choir of sixty voices singing "Listen to the Lambs" and "I'll Never Turn Back No More," two compositions, based on our folk motifs, written by R. Nathaniel Dett of Hampton Institute and interpreted under his conductorship, said: "This composer's work is colossal in its significance of the cultural possibilities of Afro-Americans. On Prof. Dett's compositions on my programs and have my students study and interpret your folk music." The Hampton Institute choir sang with effectiveness, as its first number, Harry T. Burleigh's "Deep River." The Musical Art Society announces that on Nov. 8, "Pagliacci" will be given by a New York company, in Ogden Hall. Wm. Anthony Aery. Johnson and Wills Matched Newark, N.

President of the Civil Rights Protective League Splendid Organizer and Local Leader Who is Securing Wonderful Results. (Special to The Gazette) SPRINGFIELD. O_When the news was received that a "Jim Crow" school was to be started in the Fulton school district, "christmas picked up" as a position of race names had been presented to the School Board against it, more than one singing the one with the names in its favor. Our citizens sure the school would not shut "the postponer" of Mrs. Forest Speaks. Mrs. Jane Lee and Mrs. John Collins that had two seniors 1 M. B. presented by Mr. Forest. Speaks opened the "jim crow school" our citizens immediately formulated plans to night the outrageous action of the School Board. The work up for a leader and the field was carefully" gone over "the focus being thrown on several men who were thought capable and willing to lead the army. That would strike the blow to such segregation in this city. The man fell upon the shoulders of Charles L. Johnson, and if he must be said that he has played the man's part over every stage of the city. For two weeks Mr. Johnson has looked us in the rain and flood, plucking Fellin district school with men and women who left their home responsibilities to serve. He is a man of well balanced mind and good judgment. He has impressed his strong personality in all the members of the civil society. But he believes that school him a leader. He is a man of splendid creative ability and experience and the agent of success. His leadership to date has been ideal with the school and its working conditions. Mr. Johnson has a splendid sample for this and coming generations, by performing his duty tirelessly and always with an eye-simile to upholding those whom he feels are being wronged by the shame-boss efforts to establish "jim crow" schools in this city. He has given of his money-time and effort boundlessly and to say that he is thoroughly appreciated by our people of Springfield does not near "tell the story". They love him! He has been "tried in fire" in this contest, and always found steadfast and true—a grand leader. May his kind multiply rapidly in every community of our people in this state and country. The Republican State Executive Committee recently sent a man here to Springfield to investigate the political situation among our voters and learn their feeling toward the state ticket. The conditions were thoroughly explained to him and the chairman of the state committee was informed as to our position as the result of the "jim crow" school question, since it was a Republican school board, a Republican superintendent; Wm. Gopenhaver, Repub. cahirman of the Clark County Executive Committee, and his son, a member of the school board which voted the "jim crow" Fulton school, who have made us --- ```markdown ``` Make him leave Springfield. Arthur J. Riggs (Special to The Gazette) Springfield, O.—After exhausting every method possible and being defeated at every turn by the alert and active workers and pickets of the Civil Rights Protective League Supt. of Schools McCord and the Board of Education were at last brought to bay. Monday, at the bar of justice. Fighting to the last with a zeal worthy of a nobler cause, every legal device was tried in an effort to escape the inevitable result of their lawless and arrogant attempt to stigmatize and humiliate our honest, patriotic and law-abiding citizens of Springfield, by introducing the debarring " Jim crow" Fulton district school. After taking exceptions to the League's position, on the grounds that they had not been properly served by being designated The Board of Education of City of Springfield, instead of the Board of Education of the City of Springfield School-District, the hearing set for Monday, Oct. 23, was postponed until, Friday, Oct. 27, when arguments were heard on the motion, and the ob- IN UNION ASSUME SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS et. 30, ication In a Court ly did "one e head e the ethical De- made, ere no ent at any were again, re that ng to orders school G- y Hill their ; and I been ool by hand- l. After the hearing the Court proceeded for two hours. While the principal in the suit and their respective lawyers argued in a conference which beheld two points. It was then that Judge Frank W. Geigor received the temporary injunction. Thus became the first intimation of trusts of the seven workers' labor of the U. R. P. League's officers and members, especially the faithful women pickets. So effective has been their work in stimulating sentiment that the court room had every available space filled with an anxious crowd of our people who sent out for lunch that they might not miss any action that might be taken. Realizing that the present action is only temporary, the picketing will be continued with renewed vigor until normal conditions are restored. In keeping with the policy that has made the Civil Rights Proactive League the force it has been, the officers' call for a meeting in the evening at Mt Zion Baptist Church.

NOVEMBER 4, 1922 Congratulations are in order: The Civil Rights Protective League and the rest of our people of Springfield this state, are really making a wonderfully successful fight. More power to them and their kind! Ohio law says that we shall have mixed public schools and that is exactly what we are going to have! MORE DEMOCRATIC FRIVOLITY. Democratic leaders tell us that the situation in Eastern Europe is due to the failure of the United States to do its part in the reconstruction of Europe. In other words, because we did not promptly cancel $10,000,000,000 of debt due us, we are responsible for the effort of the Turk to regain what he considers sacred land. Everybody who wants the United States to donate $10,-000,000,000 to Europe in the belief that it will subdue the Turk, please speak up. SUPPORT THE STATE TICKET In various cities of the state our people have had and are having more or less trouble with their local Republican leaders and know what they should do on election day without any suggestion from The Gazette. But whatever decision they may reach, ought not to be permitted to affect the state Republican ticket. It would not be fair either to those candidates, our people of the rest of the state, or the Republican party of Ohio. "BOBBING UP" AGAIN It looks as if the leading women followers of the "Starlight" Boyd-Tom Fleming Ward Eleven regime, of last fall, are trying to bob up into leadership, of something again, much to the disgust of many of our good men and women of that section of the city particularly. Last Sunday afternoon, at Cory M. E church, Mrs. Tom Fleming made an announcement of the intention to organize "Anti - Lynching Women Crusaders", in this city, at the Caters' Club, on Tuesday afternoon, of this week. An organization was affected there, at the time mentioned, with its official staff made up principally of the "followers" of the regime referred to. That ought to about "settle" the "Crusaders" in this community. The candidacy of Judge Florence Allen for the supreme court gains friends all over the state. She appears not as a partisan candidate, but as an independent nominated by petition wholly without reference to the primary of either party. Her ability as a judge has been amply demonstrated on the common pleas bench of Cuyahoga county and the voters of the state will secure a capable, efficient judicial officer by her election. She is absolutely devoid of race or color prejudice and is friendly to our people. Electors who cast their votes for Miss Allen will be doing their state and their state's highest court a distinct favor. She is thoroughly qualified. A TRUE NATIONALIST. Premier Lloyd George was the last of the Big Four of the Versailles Peace Conference to pass into private life. He was preceded by Premiers Clemenceau and Sonnino and former President Wilson. He was the master strategist at that memorable meeting, and everything than Great Britain expected from the peace he obtained for her. Four-fifths of the former German colonies became British, over 20 per cent of the German reparations were accorded to Great Britain, the secret treaty with Japan for the disposition of Shantung was recognized, and British domination of the sea was admitted. Every obstacle that opposed itself to the Lloyd George plans was overcome by shrewd diplomacy and cunning bargains. Even the premier's enemies must admit that his conduct during the war and after was first, last, and all the time for the interests of his country, something that cannot be said for the American leader during that trying period. TWO MORE "BLOODY DAYS" A woman was badly cut, Saturday evening, in the vicinity of E. 28th St. and Central Ave. On Sunday afternoon at E. 33d St. and Central Ave., brothers-in-law, the large one showing signs of having imbibed too freely of 'raisin-jack', had a fist-fight for half an hour, then left only to meet in the evening near the corner of East 21st St. and Central Ave., where they fought with knives until the smaller one all but cut to ribbons the larger one who died, Monday, in a local hospital. Sunday night, about midnight, near E. 28th St. and Central Ave., there was an imitation of the World War, so many shots being fired. All the criminals escaped, as far as we have been able to learn. These are not all either. And still there are those who insist that Ward 11 is 'a haven of refuge.' Yes, but for what kind? A foreigner ran down a woman of the race, Sunday afternoon, in Scovill Ave., and refused to take her to a hospital. An officer was compelled to take both to the police station. Why don't our ministers ask the mayor for more police for wards 11 and 12, especially Ward 11? He will grant the request if it is properly made, we feel sure. ATTENTION CONFRERES! A few weeks ago, we warned our contemporaries against the efforts of certain southern advertising agencies to take unfair advantage of them, calling attention to the way (sending too small checks with their advertisements) in which they were trying to do it, at that time. Last week, we received another letter from the same advertising agency, asking a number of favors (gratis), among which was the publication, free, one or more times, of a large advertisement of a well known chemical company which does perhaps more advertising in our newspapers than any other and which is said to be the wealthiest company advertising in them. While we are on this subject we wish also to say that never in all our more than forty years' experience in the newspaper business have so many requests for free space for articles (advertisements and others) been received as in recent months, with the exception of the period covered by the World War. Many of our contemporaries "bite" at these things, with the result that they find it difficult to get sufficient funds to meet their unduly increased weekly expenses and wonder why. Stop the suicidal practice, confreeres, and turn down flat the requests of the parasitical advertising agencies, referred to, and refuse free publication to nearly all, if not all, of the dozen and one communications received weekly, the publication of which should be paid for, and in advance, too. Protect your business! SUPPORT THESE CANDIDATES The Cleveland Bar Association is endeavoring this Fall to keep the collection of judges out of partisan politics and to do away with the unseemly spectacle in political campaigns, of candidates pounding away on the political stump and magnifying their own personal qualifications to audiences not acquainted with the eal state of facts. The Cleveland Automobile Club, The Civic League and the local executive committees of the Democratic and Republican parties have joined with the Bar Association in this movement and have endorsed for re-election, these judges: For judge of the Court of Appeals, John J. Sullivan; for judges of the Court of Common Pleas, Frederick P. Walther, Homer G. Powell and Maurice Bernon; for judge of the Court of Insolvency, George S. Addams. The lawyers of Cleveland are familiar with the work of the judges on the bench and they adopted a suggestion which was made by the Cleveland Foundation in its report of the survey of the administration of criminal justice in Cleveland, which suggestion was, that in order to retain the services of honest, capable, impartial and fearless judges, that they be required to run against their records. The Bar Association conducted a referendum vote among its members, the question being: "Shall these judges be retained in office?" and the above named were all endorsed for re-election by large majorities. We believe this movement to remove the courts of our county beyond the reach of partisan politics and to make ability the test for holding this office, is a meritorious one and we place our stamp of approval upon it. We recommend to our readers, that they vote for the list of candidates for judges that are named above. THE GAZETTE. CLEVELAND. O. NOVEMBER 4. 1922 For Governor CARMI A. THOMPSON For Lieutenant Governor WILLIAM H. CHATFIELD, JR. For Secretary of State THAD H. BROWN For Treasurer of State HARRY S. DAY For Attorney General C. C. CRABBE For United States Senator SIMEON D. FESS Experienced employers of men and judges of human nature in business comment upon the fact that the man who conspicuously makes good as an officer amid the hard realities of the battlefield likewise makes good conspicuously in private life. Judge Benson W. Hough, Republican candidate for re-election as an associate justice of the Supreme Court of Ohio, went to war in France as colonel. He returned a brigadier general. He was elected in 1920 to serve two years on the Supreme Court bench or the unexpired term of Judge Donahue. His record in the year and eight months he has served on the Supreme Court bench shows he has made good conspicuously as one of the judges in Ohio's highest tribunal. The clarity of vision, keenness of judgment and insight into the facts which enabled him to make good as an officer on the field of battle enabled him to make good in the Supreme Court of Ohio. One of their highest judicial servants as well as he did in preserving American ideals and liberty in France. He should unquestionably be re-elected. Judge Robert H. Day of Canton, judge of the Court of Common Pleas for the First Subdivision of the Ninth Judicial district, Republican candidate for judge of the Supreme Court, State of Ohio, has a remarkable record of legal and judicial experience and accomplishment, rare in most candidates. If experience, training and making good on the bench indicates qualifications for membership of the Supreme Court bench of Ohio, Judge Day is unquestionably an ideal selection for that position and will give a judicial service to the people of Ohio which will safeguard their liberties and government. Judge Day has been 31 years, a successful practicing attorney-at-law. He served six years as prosecuting attorney of Stark County. Notwithstanding that county is the sixth in population in Ohio, Judge Day filled the office of prosecuting attorney to oversee the work in any event, it shows Judge Day is not only a capable public official but a faithful and hard-working one who takes the charge of public trust seriously and makes good his duties through work. As a common pleas judge he served 12 years with distinction. His exceptional ability as a judge so impressed the chief justices of the State Supreme Court that they assigned Judge Day to various courts in the state for hearing difficult cases. He has presided as judge in almost every county in Ohio and has heard from the bench cases tried in practically every important city in Ohio. DANCED AT HOTEL ASTOR! New York City.—Something is always happening to upset the smug assurances of race theorists that "It can't be done!" Twenty couples of our people were among the guests of the America's Making Carnival and Dance in the grand ball-room at Hotel Astor, 44th St. and Broadway, Oct. 27. Thirty-six racial and national groups were represented in an unprecedented and myth-destroying get-together. The program was a mixture of special entertainment and social dancing, chose of those people in attendance who danced there: Br. and Mrs. Wm. W. E. DuBois, Br. and Mrs. Jugene K. Jones, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Pace, Mr. and Mrs. Gerald F. Norman, Dr. and Mrs. George A. Kyle, Mr. and Mrs. James Harris, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Elzy, Dr. and Mrs. E. R. Alexander, Mr. and Mrs. Charles S. Johnson, Mrs. Daisy Tapley, Mrs. Charles W. Joyce, Mrs. Ella B. Harrison, Misses Minnie Brown and Louise Lattmer. GLOBE THEATER. The exceptionally fine vaudeville acts and latest, biggest and best photo-plays, being shown each week at the Globe Theatre, is in a fair way to close other theaters in that vicinity, owing to the growing popularity of the Globe with the masses of our people in that section of the city. This week, just as we predicted in our last issue, the bill at the Globe is a corking good one and you are making a mistake if you do not see it. Next week, its headliners are the Prince and Princess of Mysteria, in an oriental act, which is one of the most expensive as well as most thrillingly interesting, on the stage this season. Manager Billy McGee has nothing too good for his patrons. That undoubtedly explains the securing of such acts as the one just mentioned and the Mondayaye and Darkfeather act, at the Globe, this week, both very high class attractions, wonderfully pleasing. The other four acts, for next week, are Mitchell and Wright, a very clever pair of singers and dancers; "Billy" Harris, who has possibly the finest singing and dancing act on the stage, today, and has only to be seen and heard to be so recognized; Pace, Thomas and Bruce, a very fast, smuggler trio, and dancing act on the stage, today, to be in a class all by himself. Princess Mysteria is going to give some amazing demonstrations of mind reading, next week, which will take you off your feet. POLITICAL ADVERTISING Ohio Republican For Ge CARMI A.

He county in Ohio and has heard from SEND CROSSER BACK, SAYS LABOR'S EDITOR Former Congressman Pays a High Compliment to Crosser's Ability. Former Congressman Edward Keating, of Pueblo, Col., is the man who obtained legislation for a congressional investigation of the atrocities against the workers in the strike in the Rockefeller mines in Colorado, several years ago. Mr. Keating is at present editor of "Labor," the railway workers' newspaper published in Washington. Mr. Keating served in Congress when Crosser did and he had every opportunity to see the kind of work he did as a legislator. Mr. Keating's estimate of Crosser will be seen in the following statement: "Crosser must come back to Congress. Crosser has studied public questions to the point where he understands them. He has no strings attached to him. He votes as Bob Crosser's conscience and clear old Scotch brain directs and not as some boss or organization dictates. Time and again I have seen Crosser in action when unexpected questions came up for a vote in the house. Bob simply applied one test—the same acid test he always uses and the only one that can be trusted—"Is this in the interests of the people of the United States?" If he believed it was not, he voted against it regardless of who was sponsor for the measure or what influences were behind it. Crosser has a trained and educated mind, and he has a heart that is right. I would regard it as a calamity if the voters of Cleveland do not send him back to congress. Not only the public utility interests, who fear Crosser as they no other man can congress, but those who all support the country are out to defeat Crosser. The bosses want to make an example of him so that when other new members attempt to disobey the bosses, they can say: "Remember what happened to you. Now behave and do as we say or we'll see that you get the same treatment." By sending Crosser back, Cleveland will put heart into every man who is trying to do the right thing. I imagine Tom Johnson's spirit is somewhere in the vicinity of Bob Crosser's headquarters these days and he must be immensely pleased at the way Bob is carrying on the fight he himself waged on the death. The Gazette urges its readers to vote for Mr. Crosser because he is the PEOPLE'S candidate. POLITICAL ADVERTISING American State Ticket Governor THOMPSON Cant Governor CHATFIELD, JR.

Senator Atlee Pomerene 17. SCHLOSEN Senator Pomerene's record during his nearly twelve years in the United States Senate shows that he has voted uniformly for the general welfare. Race prejudice never has influenced his vote. He has been fair to all regardless of race or color. He never has dodged or sidestepped an issue that has been of interest to the Negro.

Sheriff Chas. Stannard, "jim crow's" (segregates) our prisoners in the county jail. He is the first to do so, we understand. Stannard is a candidate for re-election.

Mission was officially organized by President Elder J. A. Walker, 3603 Boston Ave. before a very good audience. The officials for the ensuing conference year were elected and confirmed. Rev. Walker spent only a day and night in the city, but found the religious work in a very good condition. He left for Oberlin to visit his sick daughter, going from there to annual conference, at Millersburg, New York. We are asking the help and co-operation of the good people of this community. R. B. Vinson, pastor; Isaac Washington, rec. sec. National Secretary James Weldon Johnson, addressed another of the N. A. A. C. P. local branch's many mass meetings at Cory M. E. church. Sunday afternoon, telling the audience all about the defunct Dyer bill. Nothing was said, however, by Pres. Green, or any other member of the organization, about the Wm. Taylor, Son & Co.-Green incident, a few years ago. "the nothing can be done" is NOT true. "Something" HAS been done; not by any of our organizations, but by individuals. "Something" more can be done and even more MUST be done, for "the good and welfare" of those of our race in this community. The resignation of Richard Sissle, probation officer, was accepted by Chief Judge John P. Dempsey of municipal court, to take effect immediately, last week Thursday. The resignation followed the complaint of a probationer, who declared he had paid the sum of $55 to Sissle. An audit of the books made by James Metlicka, chief probation officer, and Frank Dempsey, bookkeeper, disclosed that Sissle failed to make the proper entry at the time of collection, Judge Dempsey said. The money, however, was later paid in. Sissle claims the money was paid to him in small sums and he was waiting to secure the total amount before entering it on the books. Mayor Fred Kohler must have forgotten Central Ave. when he was praising the condition of the streets of Cleveland, the other day. That thoroughfare is so bad, let so by the FitzGerald-Maschke-"Starlight" Boyd-Councilman Tom Fleming regime, that Tom "jumped" the during the race. Mr. Fleming, the meet here, Citizens of that section of the city were told, last year in a Central bath-house meeting, that funds for the new sewer, new street-car tracks and new pavement were "in hand" and that there would be no untoward delay in installing them, but there was and is. Why, Mr. Mayor, why? We understand the failure to do, of the FitzGerald-Maschke-"Starlight" Boyd-Tom Fleming regime, but we did not understand the delay. Central Ave., as it stands, is a veritable mud-hole and disease-breeding street, possibly the worst in the city of Cleveland. Wm. R. Conners and Atty. Wm. R. Green called a meeting, Monday evening, at the "Negro" Welfare League's headquarters, E. 40 hst. to consider the "turn-down" Green received, recently, when he went to the Wm. Taylor, Son & Co. store to purchase a hat. Among those at the meeting were: Atty. Chas. W. Chesnut, Alex H. Martin, harry Davis, Messrs. Dwight R.ton, Tom Fleming, Sam Woods and the editor of The Gazette. They effected an organization to work on the matter in conjunction with the local branch of the N. A. A. C.

Gibson, a graduate of Western Reserve University Dental Department, has opened new and fully equipped dental offices at 4505 Woodland Ave. and we trust leaders in the area to recognize if you were first-class at rate.

Mrs. Louisa Godette, stenographer in The Gazette office, complains that there is a waitress (white) in Woolworth's 5 & 10 cent store, E. 4th St. and Euclid Ave. who absolutely refuses to serve our people at the store's lunch counter; that she (Mrs. Godette) had to wait some time, Monday, before being served by another waitress (white), and that during this time she was compelled to sit and hear an insulting conversation relative to serving her which was carried on by the柜-hun waitress and an assistant of her "street." The management of the store has identified of this incident and sent a copy of our Ohio Civil Rights law that provides penalties ranging from $50 to $500 for direct or indirect refusals to serve us in all public places in this state. Tuesday, Mrs. Godette was insulted in Hotel Statler when she went there to fill a Gazette business engagement with Miss Rebhan, Room 303, a lady active in Judge Florence E. Allen's campaign. An elevator boy refused to permit he to enter the elevator, claiming he was following instructions, until Miss Rebhan, the assistant manager of Hotel Statler, telling him that that sort of thing must cease, at least as far as her guests, regardless of race or color, were concerned, or she and those connected with her would leave the hotel. That settled it and the elevator boy could serve Mrs. Godette and did. Good for Mrs. Rebhan! Solid (22 guan Filling Set of Let us extract that old ach how easy we can re all your fr DR. H. V S. W.

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 nature without self-respect and have no 'guts.'" The world respects only those who resent and resist proscriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolition, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt. — Boston (Mass.) Guardian.

Ohio's Anti-Lynching Law Leads the Country in Legislation Against The Mob and Lynch-Murder-The Work of a Member of The Race Also Ohio's Civil Rights Law. 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 # Mobi Section 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280.

A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2.) Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such injury as permanently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.) Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent disability to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (98 v 182 5.) Section 6282. The legal representative of a p.rson dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for such unlawful injury, shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor children surviving such decedent, such person shall be the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v 162 6.) Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by such a mob. (93 v 162 6.) Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7) Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county against which such action has had, to include it with the costs of action, in the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.) Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian.

Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and the cost against it in favor of the local rev. authority in favor of killed or seriously injured by a mob from any of the persons composing such mob.

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 commissioner 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 dis pursue such mob. (93 v 163 11.) Section 6289. This chapter shall shall contain special provisions in such branching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v 163 12.) 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.

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, eat- ing house, tavern or water, theater or conveyance by land or water, 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 ac-commodations, advantages, facilities, or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than 160 dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, 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 recov- 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 would 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 outery 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 26, 1919. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Editor The Gazette Cleveland, O. 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 jurgery for ($500) five hundred dollars was sustained. If the Beacon-Journal had made it going on in its own town, there would have 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. We must learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement. If we do not learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement, we may be very sure that we will be governed by them, their work as well as worked by others for their own advancement and not ours.—George W. Blount. I believe thoroughly, as everyone knows, in education—in all phases of education I believe, as well, in all the learned and useful professions. But sowshow, 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 six per cent.
