"Mob violence of this kind in the state of Illinois will not and must not be tolerated. The legislature has seen fit to squarely place the burden on the shoulders of the taxpayers to see to it that mobs are suppressed and citizens are protected, and if they fall in this duty they must pay such damages as are sustained by citizens at the hands of mobs allowed to assemble." The principle of holding the county liable for the injury or death of persons at the hands of a mob was first placed upon the statutes of a state in this country by the Hon. Harry C. Smith of Ohio, father of that state's famous mob violence or anti-lynching law. The Dyer bill, the Stevens bill now pending in the Pennsylvania legislature and the Capehert bill, in the West Virginia Assembly, as well as the Illinois law and others "all embody this principle and many other provisions of the pioneer Ohio Anti-Lynching law.

Charles W. Anderson, U. S. Collector of Internal Revenue. Third District, New York City. Our readers remember that just after the Congress adjourned, a few weeks ago, President Warren G. Harding appointed an "Ohio boy", Hon. Chas, W. Anderson, for many years a resident of New York City, U. S. collector of internal revenue for the third district of that city, the one created during the closing hours of the session. This new district includes the old federal district over which Mr. Anderson presided for more than ten years under Presidents Roosevelt and Taft and for a brief interval under President Thomas Woodrow Wilson. The portrait above shows Mr. Anderson standing at his desk in his office, surrounded by the many beautiful floral gifts that were sent to him upon the occasion of his induction into the collectorship, a few weeks ago. There was a large gathering of friends, many speeches, telegrams and letters of congratulation, as well as many personal expressions of good will, etc. In a letter to his long-time friend, the editor of The Gazette, Mr. Anderson wrote, in speaking of the occasion: "It was all not only most extraordinary, but very surprising. I wish I could feel that I really deserved, in any specific way, the magnificent testimonial. At least four of the many prominent men present at the installation ceremonies were rated as million-alres. Of course there were many others who, with and without living wealth, had just as much a actor, loyalty and moral fibre as man could have if he had all the millions of the Rockefeller's.

Belleville, Ill.—Three men were indicted on the charge of distributing "anonymous, and scurrilous" campaign literature preceding the E. St. Louis municipal primary in February. The campaign matter was issued by the Ku Klux Klan. The men are Benj. F. Morrow, Harry Weeks and Walter Gillen. They were arrested, Feb. 24, and a large amount of literature attacking Catholic candidates and the police department was confiscated. Following his arrest Morrow made a confession to police, in which he asserted he was employed as a prefect committeeman" by the Klan, that Klausmen took an oath "sealed with blood" to war on Catholics, Jews and Negroes, and that on receiving a certain pass word they were to assemble "prepared for an emergency." Later Morrow appeared at E. St. Louis police headquarters and asked protection, saying Klausmen had threatened him for the disclosures. FOR BENEFIT OF THE PLAYHOUSE. Manager "Bob" Davis of The Globe Theatre Presents a Midnight Ramble—Let Everybody Attend. Saturday, May 5th, Manager Robert N. Davis has donated the Globe Theatre for a midnight ramble for the benefit of the Playhouse building fund. Heartily cooperating with his desire, further the cause of the new community house are the entire troop of actors and actresses and Redd's incomparable orchestra. The response of the theatre people to the appeal of the advisory board of the Playhouse was highly gratifying. A unique and unusual program has been arranged which will include Manager Davis in person. With Mrs. Davis, Bob "put in" his famous sketch "Characteristics of Work." The theatre seeing public can be assured both of a splendid program and that the funds derived will be used to further a worthy cause. This is one time the editor of The Gazette will stay up late, to be "among those present." Let us ALL be there, Saturday mid-night. What Mt. Zion Cong, church proposes for the future is to purchase the Jewish Temple at E. 55th St. and Central Ave. for $10,000. It has paid down $10,000, expects to raise $20,000, more by June 30th and an additional $50,000 by Sept. 30, 23, obtaining possession of the Temple in July, 1924. The church itself is responsible for $35,000 of this money and is putting forth every effort to raise it. floral gifts that were sent to him upon the occasion of his induction into the collectorship, a few weeks ago.

Of course there were many "Jim Crow" School Advocates Must Wait Until October for Action Springfield. O—The hearing of the school board's appeal, in the Fulton "jim crow" school case, has been postponed until the October term of the appellate court. While this date is subsequent to the time for reopening school for the next year it will have no effect on the operation of the injunctin which provides that beginning with the next school year, the Fulton school must be reopened and all children both white and colored residing in that district must attend that school. No apprehension is being felt, that the Court of Appeals, will not sustain the decision of Judge Frank M. Krapp when the case finally comes to a decision. The resolution of the school board that the Fulton School:case be appealed and which was passed by the vote of the male members of the board, the two women members opposing, is simply another case of Supt. McCord and his hemp loading more unnecessary expense on the public, as the expenses of the appeal must be put off, with the McCord's Ku-ku out of the assistance of Rev. (?) E. W. B. Curry, we are told, are trying to get the white people in the Fulton district to move out. It is reported that all whites living in rented properties have been ordered to move out, while "Prof. E. W. B. Curry accompanies, it is said, white real estate dealers when they visit white property owners to impress upon the property owner the fact that the Fulton district is to be made an "exclusive colored section" and that they "might as well sell." Further reports are that not much progress is being made in this new "task." Curry should be made to leave Springfield! THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT! Washington, D. C., April 19. 28. 23. Mr. Herbert J. Seligmann. New York City. My dear Mr. Seligmann:—Your communication of April 19 has been submitted to the President, and he directs me to say that the task of selecting and completing the colored staff for the management, and administration of Tuskegee U. S. Veterans' hospital is well under way. It is the plan of the director of the Veterans' Bureau, with the approval of the President, to man this institution completely with a colored personnel. It is not an easy matter to perfect such an organization under the limitations of the civil service, but the program is being worked out in a most encouraging and gratifying way. The Tuskegee experiment is going to afford the trained representatives of the colored race to give proof of their capacity and efficiency in a highly important public service. Yours sincerely, (Signed) Ggo. B. Christian, Jr., Secretary to the President; others who, with and without having wealth, had just as much character, loyalty and moral fibre as any man could have if he had all of the millions of the Rockefellers. But I mention the presence of the very rich men because they do not or dinarily turn out to see a little fellow sworn into a little job." And no one of the U. S. internal revenue collectorships in New York City is a "little job", by a good deal, and "Charley" is holding the biggest one of the three, all of which should make Afro-Americans feel very good and commence, now, to do all they can to insure Mr. Anderson's confirmation at the next session of the U. S. Senate. FANNER'S WIDOW TO GET $2500. Under Our Ohio Mob Violence or Anti-Lynching Law—She Can, Get $5,000. Fearing the result of a $5,000 damage suit filed against the county by Mrs. George K. Fanner, based on the death of her husband, who was shot by pay roll bandits, the county commissioners have agreed to pay her $2,500. Former Mayor William S. FitzGerald filled the action basing it on Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio statute against mob violence and lynch-murder, which makes the county liable to the extent of $5,000 for failure to protect citizens from mob violence. According to the petition, Mr. Fanner was "lynched" at the hands of a mob." "A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to anyone without authority of law shall be deemted a mob," the law reads. "An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a lynchment." Relatives of W. C. Sly, who was shot and killed at the same time, Dec. 31, 1920, at W. 47th St. and the Nickel Plate railroad, are barred from filing a similar claim because the two years, allowed by law in which to file a damage suit, have passed. THE NEGRO ENODES. Some indication of the magnitude of the Negro migration from South to North may be gained from the report of the Department of Agriculture that 13 per cent, or 32,000, of the Negro farm hands of Georgia have come North during the last year. The movement is continuous and growing, and though Georgia is losing a much larger proportion of her laborers than any other state, the exodus is not a local or temporary affair. Every southern community is affected. From the point of view of the Neero there is every reason for moving North. Farm wages are low everywhere; they are lowest of all in the South. Socially and politically the Negro enjoys much more freedom in the North. Added to these incentives to change are (lynching, disfranchisement, "jim crow" cars, segregation, etc.) the discontent of returned colored troops with traditional living conditions, the breakdown of the contract-labor system, recent crop failures and general agricultural bankruptcy. On the whole, the wonder is that the Negro did not walk out long ago. But if the South allows the emigration to proceed it will wake at some not far distant date, to discover that there is nobody left to work the plantations. The whole economic structure of the South has rested upon a class of unskilled labor which is rapidly getting out from under. Not socially, economically or politically has the South made it worth while for the Negro to remain.—N. Y. World. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS THIS IS REAL SERVICE! Dr. Emmett J. Scott Pictures Southern Conditions In His Reply to a Heated Communication From the Sec. Treas. of the N. C. Pine Assoc.—Makes Plea for Release of Our People in the South From Economic Slavery. Washington, D. C. — As a result of the telephone sent by Dr. Emnett J. Scott, sec.-treas. of Howard University, to Judge Ellibert II. Gary, chairman of the board of directors of the U. S. Steel Corporation, a heated communication was sent him by John M. Gibbs, sec.-treas. of the North Carolina Pine Association, Inc. of Norfolk, Va. objecting to Dr. Scott's statement that our people of the South are in position to supply any labor shortage in the large industrial plants of the country. To Mr. Gibbs' letter, Mr. Scott has sent the following reply: Washington, D. C. April 24, '23. John M. Gibbs, Sec.-treas. N. C. Pine Assoc. National Bank of Commerce Bldg.. Norfolk, Va. Dear Sir: I write to acknowledge receipt of your letter of April 19th. I fear from the tenor of your communication, that you must not have read my complete telegram, but only a portion thereof. I therefore send you, herewith a copy of said telegram that you may more fully inform yourself of just what I said to Judge Gary. Familiar with Southern Conditions Evidently you rest under the misapprehension that I am, as you state, "unt familiar with southern conditions." You are probably not informed of the fact that I am a southerner who has spent most of his life in the South, having been born in Texas, where for a number of years I conducted a newspaper, and of my having served for 22 years in the heart of the "black belt" of the South as secretary to the late Dr. Booker T. Washington and of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute. I also served for twenty-one years as secretary of the National Negro Business league. I am therefore wuturing to suggest that have fairly accurate knowledge of southern conditions. The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace commissioned me to make a study of the whole program of Negro migration during the war. The conclusions of that study are set forth in a publication very widely distributed by that organization. I would venture to call the conclusions of that study to your attention. Describes Southern Situation Describes Southern Situation. I approached the study of Negro migration in no spirit of hostility. I did approach it, however, with the very definite feeling, that the South owes the Colored people a squarer deal than it has been giving them. The horrible stories of peonage, the lynching crime, the lack of educational opportunities, the residential and labor segregation laws, the "jim-crow" car system, the destruction of political privileges and the curtailment of civil rights, are all matters which stimulate the migration of Colored people from South. I now know that part of your letter which you attempt to show that there is a shortage of labor in the South. I am assuming you are referring to Negro labor. If there is such a shortage in the South, the reasons therefore must be apparent to you. Even when a 50 per cent increase in wages has been made for Negro labor, I wonder if one circumstance like yourself, is not acquainted with the fact that even when this increase has been made it bears no adequate relation to the amount offered in other sections of the country. I must not to emphasize the fact that the Negro is no longer willing to accept the intolerable conditions to which I have referred and a lowered wage at one and the same time. It is a matter of common knowledge that the vagrancy laws of the South are used to intimidate Negro laborers and to force them to work under intolerable conditions. It is equally a matter of common knowledge that as a result of his refusal to work under the oppressed economic conditions of the South he has even suffered himself to be placed in prison. If unwillingness to work under these restrictive and dehumanizing conditions is to be interpreted as a shortage of labor, then, if there is not a shortage of labor in the lumber plants and other industries of the South, there should be such a shortage. Our People Should Leave. I very definitely feel that, it is the duty of Colored people, wherever opportunity offers to leave those sections where lynching and the punishment are prepared up with impunity. I know quite definitely the difficulties that black men are likely to meet in some of IN UNION IS STRICHT THE COPY FIVE CENTS Scott! REAL SERVICE! Scott Pictures Southern ditions Communication From the Sec. the Assoc.—Makes Plea for people in the South From Eric Slavery. the northern sections, but these difficulties are inconsequential when compared with the privileges of a free and untrammeled citizenship. I am sorry that you are disposed to consider the ambition on the part of Colored people to seek their-fullest development and the enjoyment of Dr. Emmett J. Scott. the fullest American citizenship as being unworthy. I should very much dislike to feel that the South, the natural habitat of the Negro, as you say, is going to assume a permanent position in the Negro in these fundamental directions. If it does, migration northward will continue. Support Scott's Statement. Support Scott's statement. Dozens of letters and telegrams have reached me from all parts of the South—from as far as Lake Charles, L.A., for instance and from points in Visselappi, Georgia, Alabama, and Virginia, from Colorado men advising that my telegram to Judge Gary correctly interprets the situation in their sections just as I described them. These communications very definitely indicate that these Colored Americans seeking a higher wage and release from the economic slavery which holds them in many parts of the South to a one-crop system are ready and willing to supply the labor shortage in American industrial plants where conditions are more satisfactory, if plans are undertaken on a large and important scale to transfer them to the centers where their services are needed. Very truly yours. Emmett J. Scott. Nation-wide discussion of Dr. Scott's telegram has ensued. Northern and Southern newspapers, daily and weekly, colored and white, are giving wide publicity to the suggestions contained in his telegram to Judge Gary. DOINGS OF THE RACE Atty, Wm. E.

TO EXTEND ITS FIELD Now Operating in Five. Will Soon Enter Nine Additional States, Virginia Included. To Increase Capital Stock COMPANY HAS MADE FINE RECORD IN THREE YEARS Norfolk, Va., Apr. 25, 23. The South as a whole has made very satisfactory and substantial progress during the past few years. No section of the nation has caught the spirit of business revival with more enthusiasm than the South, and in this section has sprung up one of the most virile and promising business organizations in the country in the form of the Bankers' Fire Insurance Company, of Durham, North Carolina. The interesting story of its origin and growth has none of the mushroom features, but reflects sound planning and training, capable management and constructive building upon a solid superstructure. Started Business In 1920. The Bankers' Fire Insurance Company began operations in North Carolina in 1920. While carefully charting its course and building up a profitable business in that State it has been likewise making plans for expansion in other States, and as a result is now doing a lucrative business in North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Maryland and the District of Columbia. Operating In Five States. The company is now operating in five states, in each one of which it has won an enviable reputation by the honest business methos employed in dealing with all its patrons. The promptness with which it has added each fire loss since its organization in each locality place the company is doing business. The Bankers' Fire Insurance Company is justly proud of its record and is doing everything in its power to justify and perpetuate its growth and development. Sought In Other States In the Other States As would be expected the good name of the company has "gone abroad," and it is being sought in other States of the Union. Its quick and immediate responses made to alleviate suffering wherever its patrons have been affected have caused numerous letters to come from every State in the Union seeking the company's services. These requests have become so urgent until it has been decided to prepare to immediately enter Virginia, West Virginia, New York, New Jersey, Missouri, Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Will Increase Capital Stock These invitations to the company to offer other states has been accompanied with letters from companies desiring to own Bankers' Fire Insurance Company stock. To meet these requests and provide for a wider distribution of this stock, the company plans in the near future to increase its capital and distribute th new issue largely in the new ter- tory. To facilitate this is to enable home-owners to purchase fire insurance from a company owned and controlled by local interests. The new territory to be entered offers an unusual opportunity for the Bankers' Fire Insurance Company not only to render a large service to these communities, but offers also employment to a large number of persons. Resources Large and Growing. The company's resources of more than $300,000.00 are more than ample to protect every present policy holder. The meeting of every claim promptly after the great New Bern, North Carolina, confagration, attests this fact. The facility with which the company met this exigency was a practical demonstration to the length and is justly referred to by the officers and stockholders with pride. Strong Personnel. The company is the first of its kind organized, owned and operated entirely by Afro-Americans, and it numbers among its officers and directors some of the most capable and experienced business men the race has produced. Its officers and directors have been selected from men of large holdings, who have been highly successful in their own personal and business affairs. Its office routine is carried on by men and women specially trained and equipped for their business is carried on exactly like the business of the oldest and largest fire insurance companies in America. The company's growth in usefulness, prestige, popularity and resources not only attests the ability and capacity of the management selected, but the confidence placed in it by the public. The Bankers' Fire Insurance Company is no longer an experiment, because it has successfully met the hazard and the test of the pioneer. It is a going and growing reality, with the thoughts and the eyes of the public being focused upon it more and more each day, and it is measuring up to the most exacting requirements of an efficient organization of its kind. The officers of the company are: W. G. Pearson, president; O. C. Spaulding, A. M. Moore, A. J. Gong, vice president; J. M. Avery, treasurer; W. Gomez, secretary-management; M. A. Golns, assistant secretary. The home office is in Durham, N. C. Want to go in business, rent or purchase? Do not overlook our classified ad. department.

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. "Mob" and "lynching" define 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281.

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 to be manual labor. (but v. Section 6280. A person taken from offices of justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles in any other manner, 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 occurred, 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, manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (98 v. 125 f. 2.) 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 such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor person so lynched, if any survive him. Such sum shall be 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 next of kin according to the laws of the district in which the person resides. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v 162 6.) Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempt-within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall be presumed to be as one purposefully injured or killed by such a mob. (93 v. 162 6.) OUR LESSON 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 interested by others in their own interest as well as worked by others for their own advancement and not ours.—George W. Blount. IS IT OF ANY USE TO CONTEN 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 1000 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 equal rights is the result 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 prescriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, 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 our race has to endure, longing for discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt. — Boston (Mas.) Guardian. Help "Tow Away You and or an Acq THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, MAY 5. 1923. law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the law which has been very effective. Only one other state (Illinois) in this country has such a law and it is largely a copy of our Ohio law. Here it is—(in the statutes) under the heading Jobs nced. g. al representative of victim of lynching injury by mob trying to lynch another costs in tax levy. s. nst member of mob. nst another county. 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. Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery is had, to include it with the costs of action, in the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.) Section 6286. If the decedent so lynching has unhoor children surviving him, the fatal shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.) 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 mob from any of the persons composing such mob. A person present, with hostile intent, 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 not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 163 12.) 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 and amusement public accommodation and amusement to a citizen except for reasons applicable to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be finet 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 of fense 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: Akron, O., April 25, 1919. 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 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, i. administering it.
