K.K.K. Threatens Moton's Life Highest Military Honors Tendered Col. Charles Young In Memorial Amphi-theater at Arlington Scurlock Ceremonies being held over the remains of the late Col. Charles Young of Ohio in the Memorial Amphitheater at Arlington, near Washington, D. C. This is the first time in military history that such honors have been accorded an individual officer of the U. S. Army. The burial of America's Unknown Hero not excepted. The large crowd attest the popularity and high esteem in which the lamented officer was held. He died more than a year ago while on duty as military attache to the Liberian republic, and the body was temporarily interred at that time with honors rendered by British troops.

BACK TO WILSONISM! Lavatory Segregation Said to Have Been Ordered by the U. S. Register of the Treasury. Washington, D. C.—Register of the Treasury Speelman, according to an unconfirmed report, has issued orders through Dr. Alphonso Harris, head of our division in the building, segregating the white and colored women workers in the lavatories and also moving the latter to the rear of the room behind partitions. While this alleged order, it is claimed, did not come as a complete surprise to our employees, the fact that Dr. Harris, a member of the race, would how to such a policy, and himself carry the order to his coworkers caused much criticism of him and Director Speelman. The orders for this segregation, it is claimed, went into effect, July 5. Supervisor Harris called our employees together and made the announcement that hereafter, our women in the building would use separate lavatories, from the white. Harris further stated that our male employees would have to remain two hours after closing time to move the furniture and do other laboring work in order that the "jim-crow" section would be in readiness for work.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS President Harding and Gen. Hines, a World War Veteran, Are Not So Easily Scared as Those Alabama Ku Klux "Crackers" Think—A "Showdown" This Time. New York City. The following Institute. For the President to re-telegram was sent, on July 5, to President Warren G. Harding, who capitulation by the government to was on route to Alaska, by the N.

P. and was the result of threats (big bluff) made by Alabama Ku Kluxans against the Afro-American personnel of our U. S. Hospital for disabled World War Veterans. The Telegram "National Association for Advancement of Colored People, representing 100,00 American citizens, asks that federal troops be sent to Tuskegee, Ala., to protect colored doctors sent to the U. S. Veterans' Hospital to care for Negro World War veterans. Lives of these American doctors and the security of Tuskegee Institute have been threatened by masked mobs. Tuskegee Institute, an internationally known agency making for inter-racial goodwill, should have protection against lawless defiance of the government. We urge especially federal protection for Dr. R. R. Moton, successor to Dr. Booker T. Washington, whose life has been threatened." Following this telegram, and when it learned that Director Frank E. Hines of the Veterans' Bureau had gone to Tuskegee to meet citizens (white) there, the Association issued the following statement: "The President promised, in a letter on file in this office, that Afro-American doctors and nurses would be appointed to care for Afro-American veterans in our U. S. Hospital at Tuskegee. The grounds upon which this hospital stands, were given to the government by Tuskegee Miscreable American "Virus" Abroad Paris, France.—An incident in which four American tourists refused to make an excursion through Paris because the vehicle contained 12 black soldiers was taken up in a two column leading article in the Petit Blau. July 6. 23. The newspaper demands that tourist agencies insist that their patrons respect the customs of the country in which they are vacationing. Says Petit Blau: "These Americans behaved as vulgar persons. Their ridiculous aversion for men of color contain no excuse. They are not at home but in our country, which is an entirely different affair. The protest of these individuals, devoted to white integralism, merited a severe fesson, and it is to be regreted one was not given which would make them see all colors. It is unfortunate that it was not made apparent that a Frenchman, whatever his color, is worth sat least any foreign tourist."

Trouble, if trouble there be, is made by the Ku Klux Klan and persons (white) sympathetic with that lawless order, not by the Afro- American physicians and nurses eager to serve their country and their race. The government ought to be able and willing to take whatever steps may be necessary to protect its property and the lives and interests of those in its service." About 300,000 Left Georgia. Atlanta, Ga.—Within the past three and a half years, 228,938 of our people have migrated from Georgia to the north, according to figures compiled here by the Georgia Bankers' Association. During the first six months in 1923, 77,500 left the state, and for the same period 29,513 whites have left Georgia farms, the figures show. As a result, the report states, from the rural communities, 46,674 farm-dwellings have been left vacant, and estimating 30 acres to the plow, there are 55,522 idle plows. Labor shortage on the farms, June 15, '23, is estimated at 70,743. Kearns Ready to Talk Turkey.

SATURDAY, JULY 14, 1923. When it comes to matters of prime interest to our race, Mayor Curley of Boston and Gov. Small of Illi- nois seem to be in a class by them- selves, these days, = The Chicago Defender announces that Prof. Editor “Alphabetical” Du- Bois declared for racial segregation in a recent speech in Philadelphia and that our people in the audience were dumbfounded and thoroly dis- gusted. Who wouldn't be? a ‘The exodus from the South is ex- plained in the one word MISTREAT- MENT. “Denial of education” is but one of many complaints that come under the general head, “mistreat- ments.” And the world, mistreat- ment, is hardly strong enough. It does not cover thoroly mob violence, lynch-murder, etc., etc. ‘ Nearly all of our readers, like the editor of The Gazette, were unable for one good reason or another, to attend the late Col. Charles Young's funeral services, or ceremonies, early last month, at Arlington, and witness the exceptional scene shown fm the picture on the first page o! this paper. That is the reason fo1 giving it, today, our first opportun ity to do so. le Speaking to World War tnvalids at the Army general hospital, Den- ver, Colo., President Harding is re ported to have said: “I want to tell you if there ever 4s another war we will do more than draft the boys. If I have anything to do with it we will draft every dol- lar and every other essential.” Just let that idea sink in. It contains the germ of the greatest in- any American President, It Afro-American Republicans ot Kentucky do not defeat one James Wallace, state treasurer, Republican candidate for state auditor, they ought to forever hang their heads in shame. His insulting references to them, made to a committee of in- telligent members of the race and Quoted in the Louisville News of July 7, °23, are enough to damn him, politically, until the end of time. Cross his name from the ticket if you have to fight to do so. Suoh a man is unfit to hold public office in this country or anywhere else. Sink the editorial knife, up to the hilt, into the vitals of his polit- feal carcass, Editor ‘Warley! ee A number of our contemporaries are publishing a statement, issued by aN. Y. City soclalist_ magazine (Crusader), to the effect that the President has “passed up the race and struck it another blow” because he did not appoint Atty. Thos. L. Jones, of Washington, D. C., a mem- der of the District of Columbia Rent Commission, but did appoint a “a white southerner.” How very silly this statement is can be seen by recalling President Harding's at- titude in the U. S. Veterans’ Hos- pital’ controvery, where not one but | many appointments of Afro-Amer- icans are being made on bis order. ‘Some of our confreres are too easily misled. All| — FILCHING LIMELIGHT. While actual proof may be want- ing, {t appears that Howard Univer- sity is issuing as its own, various conclusions from governmental sta- tistics in reference to the Afro-Amer- fean, and if this is true, it smacks of puerile, mercenary motives un- worthy of that great institution. ‘Thus we have it in this week's re- leases of the mortality araong our people the brazen credit tine, “upon statistics collected by Howard Uni- versity.” Collected from where? From its own survey or from pub- lished statistics of the census? We have already had and putished, with a careful analysis of our expert, the same statistics from that bureau, and we are led to believe that Howard Universitly is either serving the cen- sus, or vice versa. Otherwise a phe nomenon has occurred where tw< separate surveys arrived at absolute ly the same conclusions. It is usual that anomalies obtain in such cases rather than perfectly checked agree: ments. Pursuing its policy of keep- ing its reading clientage posted, The Gazette has always followed and re produced whatever statistical facts that are available in reference to its people, and our careful espionage has rendered this remarkable dupli- cation noticeable. We should hate to believe, for the dignity and pres: tige of Howard University, that in its eagerness for light, it had slipped under the gate, as it were, and al- lowed its dignity to bask in the un- earned sunshine of others; but, pray, what is the answer? as eee ee ee eet For that is what the latest devel- opment in the Tuskegee U. S. Veter- ans’ Hospital controversy amounts to. Alabama “crackers” have the nerve to try to scare the President of the United States into letting them have the jobs in a “Colored hospital” already practically given out, Gen. Frank E, Hines, the head of the U. 8. Veterans’ Bureau, is himself a veteran of the World War; has his instructions from President Harding as to the kind of a personnel wanted for the Hospital, has notified the Chief Executive of this country that he has that personnel “in hand,” and has gone to Tuskegee to tell those Alabama "crackers" and others 'so, and to try “to reason with them.” This last is a waste of valuable time, it is true, but perhaps it is well that he do so. Of course, thers can be ‘but ome outcome of the controversy NOW! The President and Gen. Hines, representing the great United States of America, cannot for a single mo- ment recede one iota from the an- nounced position they have taken, because of the contemptible and law- less threats of Alabama Ku Kluxers to lynch-murder members of the hospital staff and its nurses (wom- en)), and to lynch-murder Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Normal & Industrial Institute. These threats ‘undoubtedly settle, once and for all time, the personnel of our U. S. Vet- erans’ Hospital at Tuskegee, Ala. But that ought not to and doubtless will not settle the matter, as far as the threat-making Alabama Ku Klux- ers are concerned. The President and Geh, Hines will undoubtedly put the Government's secret service men to work to ferret them out and give them the long and greatly needed punishment they so richly deserve. The miserable brood have surely over-reached themselves, this time, in defying, yes virtually attacking Indirectly, with these threats the President of the country. Afro-Amer- feans generally should not “lose” thelr heads” in this matter but just “sit tight,” wait and see what we feel sure they will see and to their entire satisfaction. KELLY MILLER MISLED! Kelly Miller's letter on “Negro Migration,” published in several of our contemporaries, under the date of July 7, 1923, tells of a recent Visit of “several days in Cleveland’ ‘and impresses real Clevelanders of ‘color, who have read it, with one fact more than any other and that 4s that the main source of Miller's information was very unreliable, tc say the least, because he has made & number of incorrect statements which are really inexcusable. In the first place, 30,000 Negroes did not come to Cleveland “in ten years,” THE GAZETTE, CLEVWLAND, 0.SATURDAY, JULY 14, 1923. eal alee Sita wee ee eek e Cenk) mit gle eee ee Cialis | eatis, France. — Battling’ Eiki, champion light heavyweight of the world, Sunday knocked out Marcel Nilles, a French heavyweight pu- gilist,’ in the second round of what was ‘to have been a fitteen-round battle. Niles in May was knocked out in the eight round by Georges Carpentier, Nilles was considered by followers of the ring to have been France's best heavyweight. Cham- pion Siki’s hard head and his “steel” nibs proved immune to an onslaught from Nilles in the first round, The latter carried the battle to the Se- negalese Frenchman throughout this session, with Siki bent nearly dov- ble in’a crouch and easily assimi lating everything Nilles handed out to him. The mistaken judgment of those about the ringside was that Nilles was sure to be the winner of one-sided contest. Overconfident from his showing, Nilles came from his corner at the clang of the gong for the second round as if it was his intention to immediately finish off his opponent and have the affair ended, The shifty Siki, however. went into a clinch with Nilles and pushed him into a corner, Then, a¢ they broke away, Siki ‘swung ‘hi: left to the Jaw and Nilles went down face foremost, as though he had been struck with an ax. This is what would happen to McTigue in a fai contest in any other country, save Sealana sel Ameria. The W. C. Turners of Pittsburg returned home, last Sunday night, a badly beaten team after losiag two games to the Tate stars, Sunday aft ernoon, at Tate field. The margin of victory in both games was exactly the same, the local nine winning the first battle, 6 to 2, and the second, 7 to 3. In the first game, the Stars were outhit, but McCall kept the vis- itors’ hits scattered and they were only able to score in the Ist and Sth innings. Eight hits and three errors sent three Stars across the plate. ‘The second contest gave every ind. cation of being a close battle until the fifth inning. The Stars scored one run in the second and the vis- itors evened the count in the third. In the first of the fifth, the Turners sent two more runners across the plate, but were unable to maintain but in much less time than that. The inrush did not “completely nonplus the old Clevelander” and he did not “stand bewildered as he felt the foundations of his former privileges shaking beneath him.” Neither did he “at first oppose the inrushing tide,” nor did he “fight all suggested separate agencies of reliet as fore runners of racial segregation.” ‘These mis-statements could eminate but from one local source and it Is to be regretted that Kelly spent so much of his time with such a “yes- terday Negro wind-bag” as to be 80 completely fooled and misled! “A Negro social settlement” was not “placed under the ban” in Cleveland ‘but a “jim crow” Y. M. C. A. wad and has, very properly, been kept ‘there, The Phyllis Wheatley Asso- ciation was in existence long before the inrush referred to. As with the foregoing, so with Miller's ridiculous expression relative to “the old Clevelander becoming sobered by the imperative demand of circum- stances." “The old Clevelanders” were the ones who made possible the favorable conditions of all kinds sought and enjoyed by those of color who constituted the inrush to Cleve- land. These things and more, Kelly could have learned had he gotten in touch with some of those “‘nld Cleve- landers,” and not a “yesterday” Ne- gro who boasts of a knowledge of the city and its people that he does not possess and can not get for years to come, The Negro Welfare Association of Cleveland has been more or less of a joke and nuisance, from its war-time start, and its boasted accomplishments and those of its “secretary,” William Conners, are paper and talk, very VERY largely. Neither the _ so-called league, or its secretary, has any- thing like the position in this com- munity Miller's letter would lead its readers to believe. Kelly's state- ment that the “Negro never builds or buys a new home or chureh in Cleveland” is silly and like his Con- ners and Negro Welfare League ex- pressions, only more s0—absolutely and wholly untrue! Really, Miller's informant ought to “have his head surance of peace ever planted by examined.” When Kelly visits Cleveland again, our advice to him is to steer clear of the main sourge of his information upon the occasion of his most recent visit here and get in touch with one or more of the afore-mentioned “old Clevelanders” who can and will give him the cor- ce information he apparently sought and failed to get. their lead for the Stars rallied in their half of the inning and succeed- ed in making six runs before the in- ning ended. The second game was called at the end of the first half of the seventh. In the first game, Gray made a two-base hit, and Johnson, who made three hits, the only one to do so, a home run. No extra base-hits in the second game. The Turners (white) are acknowledged to be one of the best semi-pro teams in west- ern Pennsylvania. It may be inter- esting to some of the fans to learn how the Stars got back into. the League. It was this way; the Toledo club of our National Baseball league was disbanded, as foreshadowed in ‘The Gazette, several weeks ago, and the Milwaukee club transferred to Toledo to play out its own schedule. ‘The Tate Stars, recently re-admitted to the league, will play out the schedule of the Toledo club, having accepted its percentage-standing In the league race. The Toledo ball players are being distributed thru- out the league where they can be ‘used to the best advautase: Harry Wills, premier heavyweight, challenged Champion Jack Dempsey for a fight following his win over Tommy Gibbons, Wills made the challenge formally through his man- ager, Paddy Mullens. “We are will- ing to fight any time ,any where,” said Mullens. “If Kearns prefers Labor Day it is well and good with us.” “I have nothing to say,” put in Wills, ‘‘my manager has said all.” Wills and “Mullens were at the Dempsey-Gibbons ringside when their challenge was hurled at Demp- sey and Kearns. Champion Siki Fined. Paris, France, July 7.—Siki, the battling Senegalese, who whipped Georges Carpentier, the European light heavyweight champion, so bad- ly that Georges was confined to bed for weeks, and won the title from him, was ‘fined 100 francs in court for firing a blank cartridge from a pistol in a cafe and assaulting a po- liceman, recently.

In a Letter to President Harding—Had No Difficulty In Getting a Competent Personnel for Our U. S. Veterans Hospital—Hines Going to Tuskegee (Special to The Gazette) Washington, D. C.—As a result of the mendacious campaign conducted by a few prominent and influential Alabamaans (white) to secure the lucrative salaries attached to the positions in our Disabled Veterans Hospital at Tuskegue, Ala., for white doctors and nurses, Director Hines of the Veterans' Bureau announces that he plans to go to Tuskegue, early this month, to discuss the Bureau's plans with those whites so selfishly interested in the project. Dr. Hines declared that with the assistance and cooperation of our National Medical Association there had been no dif- PETER H. HARRIS President Warren G. Harding ficulty in getting competent Afro-American doctors for the hospital. In fact, he expressed surprise at the facility with which the staff had been secured. Whites in Alabama became "greatly agitated," it is said, following the publication of a letter from Director Hines to President Harding stating that the complete Afro-American personnel at the hospital would soon be completed. It is stated with the appearance of authority that an Afro-American superintendent to succeed Col. Stanley, (southern white), the officer attached to the Bureau now on duty at Tuskegee, had been settled upon, and will be named on Gen. Hines' return from Alabama. In announcing the proposed trip, the Director said he was confident the situation would be cleared up, and expressed an intention to convince the white people that it is his purpose to do for our patients, to enter the hospital, the best that is humanly possible. "Anyhow," he declared, "I will go down there and face the opposition." Good! Gen. Hines' Letter to President Harding. W. paterson bureau W. paterson June 18, '23. Mr. Pear, Mr. Presdendi:— Knowing your interest in the matter of obtaining colored personnel for the hospital at Tuskegee, I feel sure that you will be glad to learn that through the efforts of the professional colored medical association and the Civil Service Commission, we have been able to obtain practically sufficient colored personnel to man Tuskegee. At the present time a complete corps of colored nurses have been obtained, most of them having arrived at the hospital. The Medical Division of this office is going over carefully the papers of doctors recommended for positions there, and we are interviewing those that will be put in responsible positions, so I hope in the very near future to be able to advise you that the hospital has been completely manned by colored personnel. We have necessarily had to progress slowly in the matter because I have always felt it was your desire that we, under no circumstances, put colored personnel there on duty that did not have the professional attunements to thoroughly handle the work, feeling that the colored people desire, as we do, that the disabled Colored veterans receive treatment equal to that of any of their comrades. I am giving you this information today because I have a feeling that a certain element, prompted by a desire to ob- tain positions for certain individuals that are not thoroughly qualified, are attempting to becloud the issue by the publication of statements that it is not the intention of the Bureau to man this hospital by a complete colored personnel, and I desire to reassure you that your wishes in this regard will be carried out explicitly.

WHY THEY LEAVE THE SOUTH How They Earn the Money in New York City and the Rest of the North, These Days. New York City.—"What you all doing up here, Mister Sam?" a familiar voice called to me as I floated along with the 30,000 people who had cheered the Brooklyn team's victory over the Cincinnati Reds at Ebbett's Field on a recent Sunday. It was my old friend, Pompei Lovejoy, whom I had last seen ten years before near Rome. He was a chimpanzee on a chimney built to my mountain bungalow. He told me he left Georgia, two years ago, when a labor-agent hunting help for a brick-yard at Newburgh, N.Y., appeared before his Masonic lodge, telling of the joys of life in New York. He said the labor-agent advanced his travelling expenses and those of 16 others who met with him in them at Newburgh, where they were paid $6 a day for rolling bricks in wheelbarrows. After a few months up the Hudson, Lovejoy said he met a labor-agent, representing a firm of New York contractors, seeking bricklayers. He was told of the advantages of living in Brooklyn in steam-heated, electric-lighted apartments, and the public schools, where his children were raised. He was offered $11 a day to lay brick, eight hours a day, with a half holiday, every Saturday, and was shown how he could also keep his family busy. "I get $66 a week, and am never without work." Lovejoy said. "And I get treated just like white folks up here. You know, down home I never would have been let in the grand stand to see a ball game" I would have been out on the bleachers, and If you will go with me tonight I will show you how they treat us in the white folk's church up here." Then he told me how his wife earned $18 a week ironing in a laundry, and that his sixteen-year-old daughter is a maid at $15 a week and makes about as much more in tips. He said three members of his family take home $400 every time the moon is full and that after living as well as "white folks do down South." They are able to bank $200 every month. Sam E.

RATS DESTROY PIGEON FARM Eat Train, Eggs and Finally Squabs Themselves Ventura, Cal.-Had the Pled Pier of Hamelin been available at the Helm plig-n farm the coops would not now be deserted. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, JULY 14, 1923. The dedication of the new church, "Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament," for Catholic Afro-Americans of this city, is not regarded by even leading Catholics of color, who protested most vigorously to the Bishop against its establishment, as a progressive step, but is regarded by them and others of our leading intelligent and thoughtful residents as a step backward—retrogression. For more than a half century it has been the only denomination of this city, Catholics and Protestants, white and colored, that the great Catholic Church of all the denominations represented in Cleveland was the only one democratic and progressive enough to steadily refuse to countenance the drawing of a color line as between its members. But the influx of our people from the South to Cleveland in the last six years made it possible, after four or five years' labor by a Catholic priest (white) among the immigrants. During that time, they were encouraged by him to ask for such segregation. Whether or not not oath-bearing them, they aged them to do so not yet developed. That this is but another phase of the under-cover concerted movement, throughout the North, upon the part of prejudiced whites and their allies to segregate our people in churches, schools and other public and semi-public institutions and places, which can be no more realize. All of which means that the sooner our leading men and women realize fully that they give more time and attention to the very noticeable determination to curtail the full and free exercise of our civil rights and free exercise of public and semi-public institutions and places, the better it is going to be for the lack of ours in the North. A little less attention to church and lodge duties, and social requirements, and vastly time given to the consideration and care of our rights and privileges is an immediate requirement and an absolutely necessary one, if we are to remain. The southern Democratic Wilson Administration lost no opportunity, for eight long years, to encourage all kinds of discrimination against our people. With the result that it is going to take from ten to twenty years of aggressive effort upon our part to regain the ground lost in the last ten years. And the sooner we awaken to this fact and get decidedly more active in our own behalf, the better it is going to be, not only for us, but for those of the race to follow. The new $40,000 church for Catholic Afro-Americans of Cleveland is not only an indication of retrogression in this community upon the part of the great Catholic Church but also an indication of retrogression on the part of our people of this city. PRESCRIPTION SENT BY WIRELESS SAVES BABE Believed to Be First Message of Kind Ever Flashed to a Ship at Sea. A wireless message from a ship several hundred miles away was picked up by the Cape Hatteras station and was of such unusual nature that it is believed to be the first of its kind ever flashed thru the air with successful results. The message stated that a baby on board the vessel was critically ill and that the ship's physician was baffled by the malady c* the child. The wireless stated that the doctor had exhausted his medical skill without avail and made a pitiful appeal on the part of the broken hearted mother of the child of any physician who might get the radio and be able to prescribe for the infant. With the symptoms given the operator at Hatteras sent the message to Dr. Sutton, two miles away from the station. The doctor gave the operator a prescription and the latter at once flashed it thru the air. A few hours later the operator received another wireless saying the prescription had been filled from the ship's pharmacy and that the child had shown immediate improvement. It was then considered out of danger. After years of experience Director Klingenberg of the General Electric Company of Berlin, Germany, has announced the perfection of an "electromagnetic hand," with which it is possible to grasp even the heaviest met- objects and work with them as ad- vantageously as with human hands. Dr. Klingenberg has evolved an unusually powerful battery which can be carried by the operator, making it unnecessary for him to be near an electric current in order to magnetize the "hand." The invention it is said, can perform all the functions of the human hand and others besides. The current is regulated by a switch operated by hand and foot. It is hoped the invention will solve the problem of livelihood for many crippled soldiers, enabling them to engage even in trades requiring considerable manual dexterity, such as carpentry. By its use the manipulation of knife and fork and similar instruments is a bagatelle. A watch may be used to determine the points of the compass by pointing the hour hand at the sun any time of the day and then placing the small piece of straight wire crosswise between the hour hand and the figure 12, getting exactly half way. The point of the wire which comes between the 12 and the hour hand always points due south.

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. 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 6286. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or 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.

(98 v. 162 5.) 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 property of the man 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 sum may be distributed to the widow 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 attempt within the provisions of this chapter, may recover of the county in which 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 6288. An order to the commissioner of county court, 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 has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund to the judge, allowing not more than five 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 by a mob from any of the persons composing such mob. A person convicted of such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (98 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 lynching contributed negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or disguise such mob. (98 v. 162 11.) Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for engaging therein. (93 v. 183 12.) law.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers, of The Gazette we print below the text of Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had 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 access to a place 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 per capita amount owed in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble 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. EUGEN, The Gillette Cleveland, O. THE LAW. Observing your letter in the Beacon-Journal, this city's venture to send you under a coverate, 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, for OHIO IS UNDER NO REPROACH, the court and furies, in administering the Net word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed.
