The house was filled with intimate friends of the principals who left that evening on a honeymoon trip which included Detroit, Windsor, Cain, and other points.

SPRINGFIELD, O.—Rev. C. S. Williams, of Indianapolis, Ind., was the orator of the day at a labor day outing given by the uniform rank of our local K. P. Taking as his subject, "The Impending Crisis." Dr. Williams reviewed the history of the Afro-American. Much of his address, however, was devoted to a denunciation of the principles of the ku klux klan. His hearers were warned against being deceived by the klan's professions that it was not "after the colored people" but was after the Catholics and Jews. Particular stress was laid upon the importance of organization among our people to fight any attempt to segregate or deprive them of any of their rights as American citizens. Dr. Williams fully sustained the reputation he made here; last fall, in an address at the high school auditorium in support of the C. R. P. League's fight against the "jim-crow" Fulton school. be getting stronger. After a visit to the Governor by Dr. J. E. Furry, president of the City Commission, and Commissioner John Frock, a proclamation was issued by Press. Furry, Sunday morning, in which it was stated that owing to the strained relations which might easily result in racial and religious strife, all good citizens are urged to avoid anything that might cause trouble. There is no doubt of the intensity of the feeling against the klan among the Catholics and our people and it will not take much to precipitate a riot such as has occurred in other places. As was previously stated the Fulton school was opened, last Friday morning, for registration of pupils with principal and teachers, all white. A number of our children reported at the school but only two white pupils appeared and it is reported that they were sent away. The majority of our children applied at other buildings, as Incidents and rumors tend to support the charges that have been made that some of our preachers are working with the klan in its efforts to get control in this city. In addition to new reports of klan donations to "different preachers, and coming from klan sources, there appeared in the "Fiery Cross" (klan organ) the statement that the "intelligent colored people were not against the klan," and that in their campaign of education "members of the klan would appear in the pulpits of colored churches." As the time nears for the klan distict meeting, which is to be held at the fair grounds with a parade on the evening of Sept. 8th, the apprehension of trouble seems to ATTENTION VETERANS! If you served ninety days or more in the Spanish-American War, the Chinese Relief Expedition, or in the Philippines prior to July 4, 1902, you will be interested to know Congress has passed a Pension Law of vital interest to you. This law contains two provisions: 1st, it allows pensions, to all ex-soldiers, sailors and marines with the above service record who were honorably discharged and who are now over sixty-two years of age; 2nd, it allows pension to those who are at present materially disabled from earning their living by manual labor from disease, if the disability be not the result of their own misconduct. Such disability must be permanent but need not be total. It need not be the result of military service. THE SOLDIER DOES NOT HAVE TO BE SIXTY-TWO YEARS OLD TO CLAIM ON DISABILITY. The amount of pension depends upon the degree of disability and ranges from $12 to $30 per month. Widows of veterans are also allowed pensions. If you wish advice about this law write M. E. Buchanan, Route 1, Trevillians, Virginia. Prompt action is desirable, as a pension if allowed begins from the filing of the claim. The Act of September 1st, 1922, enlarges the provisions of the Act of June 5th, 1920. This affects many soldiers who have been rejected, increases the pension of widows and children under 16 years of age and other important matters effecting veterans and widows. Soldiers rejected on medical grounds should write to me. Please enclose stamp for reply. AFRO-AMERICANS ATTENTION!

It is expected that his intentions will be disclosed when school opens; Tuesday, and adjustments will then be made. The McCord-klan candidates were revised. last. week, when L. R.

Cleveland, O., Aug. 29th, '23 2127 E. 961st St. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—This is to advise my friends throughout the state of Ohio of my withdrawal from the vice-presidency of the Anchor Life Insurance Company. At the same time assuring them that, notwithstanding my withdrawal from active participation in the conduct of the business of the company, I consider their investment in the capital stock of the Company as perfectly sound, as all funds of the Company, are handled under the strict supervision of the Superintendent of Insurance for the State of Ohio, and are fully safeguarded by that department. My withdrawal is purely for the best interest of the Company and in no way reflects any doubt of its future success as an Insurance Company of the first grade if properly conducted by its officers. My resignation was effective, Sept. 1st, 1923. Revs. J. R. Yewell. C. C. Ailer and J. W. Ribbons motored to Los Angeles to attend a National Baptist convention in session there, this week.

SATURDAY, SEPT. 8, 1923. Those Negro preachers in Springfield who are "flirting" with local ku kluxers ought to be made to leave that city by our people. Their congregations should refuse to hear or support them. They are traitors and a disgrace to the race! --- The statement that the late President Harding had in mind the appointment of Charles Cottrill as register of the U. S. treasury "at an early date" is not true. This he made perfectly clear to the writer when in conference with him on June 13, 1921, and again on May 29, 1923. --- The next Congress will have a much smaller Republican majority than the last. It, too, will refuse to pass the Dyer or any other federal anti-lynching bill, or any bill to wipe out the ku klux klan organization, and it is foolish for any of us to affect to believe that it will do otherwise. --- While members of the ku klux klan were being "beaten up" in New Jersey, last week, members of that lawless organization down in Georgia were beating "Negroes" against whom no charges were made. "Gettun evun," said the "Georgah crackahs." What a pity they did not have those Negro-minister-allies of the Springfield, Ohio, kluxers! What Italy is doing to the "League of Notions" is certainly "a plenty." Incidentally, it is also putting a terrific crimp in what Ex-Gov. James M. Cox and Ex-U. S. Supreme Court Justice J. H. Clarke hoped to make the Democratic issue in the Presidential campaign, next year. Also, the people of this country are being given a splendid opportunity to see just how great a service has been rendered them by a Republican U. S. senate and President Harding by keeping the United States of America out of the "Plague of Nations." --- We quite agree with Editor Andrews of the Baltimore Herald-Commonwealth: It is now too late (and has been ever since the late President Harding's promise), to appoint any other than an all Afro-American personel for that Tuskegee U. S. hospital for Afro-American veterans. Director Hines, representing President Coolidge cannot enter into any compromise of the matter with citizens (white) of Alabama, representing as they do the ku klux klan of that state, without consequent tremendous loss of prestige with the great mass of law-abiding and fair-minded American citizens without regard to race or class. ARTHUR T. ABBOTT. We greatly regret to announce the resignation of Arthur T. Abbott as vice-president of the Anchor Life Insurance Company of this city. Mr. Abbott is one of our oldest and best citizens, a man whose knowledge of the insurance business was gained as a result of nearly if not quite forty years' practical experience in all branches of the same with one of the largest insurance companies (white) in this part of the country. Even more do we regret his severance of business connection with that young and very promising race enterprise / because there are very few men of our group that are as well equipped in the insurance business and stand as high in their communities as Arthur T. Abbott does in this. We sincerely trust, as also does Mr. Abbott, that the Anchor Life Insurance Company will continue to go forward and experience no ill effects as a result of his severing his business connection with it. THE N. A. A. C. P. AND LYNCHMURDER. In its recent report, on the lynching of this country, for the first six months of this year, The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People says: "The only thing that will put a stop to lynchings is the enactment into law of legislation that will punish members of mobs, county and state officials, and communities that cause and permit this crime." Quite right, and the legislation must be that of the several State Assemblies, says the U. S. Supreme Court, and not that of the U. S. Congress which has not the power to do so, says the same august body, the court of the last resort and the judicial head in this country. Whether there have been three or "4,000 known lynchings in the United States and scarcely any convictions of members of the mobs and those responsible for this crime" does not alter in the least the U. S. Supreme Court's decision and ruling that the several State Assemblies only have the power to legislate against lynch-murder and mob violence, and it is positively "silly" for the N. A. A. C. P. or any other organization, or person, to say otherwise. It is not a question as to whether "we" or anyone else "recognize 'states' rights" in this matter," or any other for that matter, but one of LAW, pure and simple, and law that has been passed upon by the court of the last resort, the highest legal tribunal in the land. Therefore, it is not "surprising that newspapers (and others) continue to argue against Congress legislation against lynching and mob violence" when the U. S. Supreme Court has decided that it cannot enact a constitutional anti-lynching or mob violence law. On the contrary it is "silly" for the N. A. A. C. P., or any other organization, to continue to try to lead an effort to accomplish the impossible. The enactment of anti-lynch-murder laws by a number of states in recent years, one at least a border southern state, is convincing proof that it would be far better, more sensible and productive of infinitely greater results for the N. A. A. C. P., and associate organizations, to direct their combined effort to the State Assemblys of the country instead of wasting much valuable time, effort and money bombarding Congress for something it cannot afford, and even if it could it will not. For many years, Ohio was the only state in the Union that had an effective mob violence or anti-lynching law but it is different now, we are greatly pleased to say. The number of such (state)laws grows slowly but surely each year and, too, in the face of the foolish effort of the N. A. A. C. P. to bull-doe the U. S. Congress into doing something it cannot do, according to the U. S. Supreme Court, the deciding power in the matter. Let the N. A. A. C. P. follow the advice, given it from time to time by the editor of The Gazette ever since it began its futile effort to secure the enactment of a federal anti-lynching "law," and direct its effort to the State Assemblys of the country and thus help to do the effective work against the mob and lynch-murder going forward so encouragingly. The knowledge of the foregoing facts, more than twenty-seven years ago, was what caused us to introduce in the Ohio Assembly and secure the enactment of Ohio's Anti-Lynching or Mob violence law. Mrs. Roberta James Leggon (Continued From Page 1) of Salem, Va., who was present at the wedding. Justice of the Peace J. T. Oatneal and wife of Washington C. H., uncle and aunt of the bride, also came to attend it. They are among our leading residents of southern Ohio. The wedding reception was from 7 to 9 p. m. Last week Thursday afternoon, Mrs. Hanson entertained at luncheon in honor of Miss James, the Misses Faustina Trimble, Mary Edmondson, Thelma Rudd, Beulah Hughes, Vivian and Anna Smith and Mrs. Grace Minor. In the evening, gentlemen joined them and there were cards and dancing. Mrs. Woods, E. 90th St., entertained at a "smoker," last week Tuesday evening, in honor of Mr. Leggon. The newlyweds have the best wisdes of a host of friends in this community.

THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, SEPT. 8, 1923 "FOLLOW ME" SET A PACE HARD TO FOLLOW George White, of "The Scandals" fame, is talking about producing a musical comedy with Afro-American actors, but George is a little late, as I. M. Weingarden has beat him to it in staging "Follow Me," which opens a week's engagement at the popular Globe Theater on Monday night. And when we say staging we mean every word of it, for "Follow Me" is a wealth of beautiful scenery, rich plush drapes, the equal of any of the big top price musical shows. It is in two acts and 16 scenes. The music is of that variety which keeps one moving the feet and cravings for more, and the song numbers have been entrusted to artists who know exactly how to render them, and these are backed by a singing and dancing chorus of girls and boys, drilled to perfection. Billy Higgins and Clifford Ross are the principal comedians, and they will remind you of the famous team of Williams and Walker. Both of these artists have a "single" spot on the program and in each instance they show just why they have reached stardom. There are numbers done during the performances, including two by Julian Costello, the classic dance numbers are productive of splendid results and are rendered by Valada Snow, Julia Moody, Coleman and Toy Titus, clever eda Taylor, Sallie Gates, Sylvia Mitchell, William Gunn, Cad Cadwell, Follow Me Four, a sensational dancing turn by Cornell and Baytie, and others. There is a pony ballet, aside from regular chorus, "Follow Me" introduces a star in the person of Valada Snow, dashing performer whose versatility is remarkable. Her work is one of the outstanding features of the production. It is a fast working, perfectly balanced performance. The costuming is the finest and on a par with any Broadway success. Everything along the staging line has been done that long experience and the skill to embody the play. The book is by Max Michaels and to music by James Vaughn. "Follow Me" will not only entertain you, it will surprise you. Wills' Manager in Con Wills' Manager in Court. New York, Sept. 5. — Paddy Mullins, manager for Harry Wills, heavyweight boxing champion aspirant, obtained an order in Brooklyn supreme court today directing Tex Rickard to show cause why a writ should not be issued restraining the Dempsey-Firpo fight Sept. 14. In his argument for the order Mullins said that if the fight between Dempsey and Firpo takes place as scheduled, will be champion, under the rules of the New York state athletic commission, because of Dempsey's failure to meet him. He said Wills was the logical opponent of Dempsey because he had $2,500 forfeit money posted for more than a year. RACE PREJUDICE!

Harry Manon (Greek), $919 Bessemer Ave., part owner of the restaurant at the corner of E. 29th St. and Central Ave., is hovering between life and death at Charity hospital as the result of being shot after a quarrel in the restaurant, Tuesday afternoon. Two bullets entered his body, one in the abdomen and the other in the right shoulder. The story runs that Harry, emulating the example set at least twice by his Afro-American wife in years gone by, went away some weeks ago with an affinity of color. He returned some days before the shooting. The police had not apprehended his assailant when The Gazette went to press, Thursday. Albert Foskey, 7807 Quincy Ave., sent his wife to purchase a No. 17½ shirt. Mrs. Foskey, not being a reader of "The Old Reliable," went to the Wm. Taylor, Son & Co. store in Euclid Ave. where she was given a No. 17 shirt. When she returned to the store to change it, the clerk at first refused to make the change. Then, after an embarrassing wait, took the shirt, looked it over carefully and even smelled it, before giving her what she had paid for. Why don't Atty. be more open and Wm. Co. conners make some effort to notify our people to stay out of that store and have all their white friends possible to do likewise. Green was insulted in the same place, many months ago.

Mrs. J. J. Green, sister of the bride and matron of honor, wore a stunning creation of orchid crepe chiffon made over cloth of silver, colonial bonnet of silver cloth trimmed with metallic ribbon.

Not since the days of Williams and Walker, of musical comedy fame, has such a talented and splendidly equipped company of Afro-American entertainers "taken the road," as that obtained in the roster of the cast of principals, and the massive scenic splendor, in "Follow Me," the attraction that will open a week's engagement at the Globe Theater, commencing Monday, Sept. 10. The chorus, both men and women, are especially selected for their ability to either sing or dance, with the happy result that to see them at work fills one with pleasurable admiration. They are at once the envy and pride of all of our choruses. The elaborate costumes and massively built stage-settings would compare favorably with the largest of musical comedies en tour. An excellent cast of four Billy Biggs and Cliff Ross, comedians par excellence: Ernest Whitman, a performer of high class, possessing a remarkably fine tenor voice; Julius Costello, the master of terpsichore. Among the female members of the large cast are: Elvira Johnson, Blanklin Balsas, Valada Snow, Sylvia Mitchell and Edna Taylor. See "Follow Me." Our advertisers want your trade.

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 oura—George W. Blount. THE MAN WHO DARES. "I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends, grow cold, but that status of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends."—Charles Summer. IS IT OF ANY USE TO CONTEND FOR RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race "always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal discrimination, and are winning even social rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, dews itself the world, and says, "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 proscription 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 to all, and long race discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt. — Boston (Mass.) Guardian. KINKY NAPPY HAIR--DON'T HAVE IT! GOOD SAMARITANS Hold a Very Successful National Meeting—Prominent Members, Etc.

M. e. church, B. 55th St. and Quincy Ave. Its Grand Staff Consul sessions were held in Elks' hall, Central Ave. About 200 delegates, with many friends, were in attendance from many parts of the country, particularly from the South. A number of the delegates were professional and business men of excellent standing in their various communities. Prominent among these were: Dr. J. A. White of Tampa, Fla., grand medical examiner, who responded to the address of welcome delivered by the president of the department to represent our press of the city but was pressed into service owing to the absence of Mayor Fred Kohler. Mrs. Mary E. White made an excellent presiding officer and Rev. E. W. Bell, pastor of the church, pronounced the invocation. Dr. A. B. Deany of Winchester Ky., national grand orator, was the third speaker and he was followed by J. W. Thompson of Richmond, Va., national grand gire; J. B. Phillips of Georgia, national grand secretary; I. D. Davis of South Carolina, several other officials (male and female) of the order and local government; I. D.

First prize, $100; second, $50; third, $25. Friday evening, the order's memorial session was held in Triedstone Baptist church. The local committee of arrangements: Lassie chiefman; Mrs. La-Sante, Messrs. B. J. Kennedy, W. Ball and T. W. Rose deserve great praise for the thorness of the work done to care for and entertain the national meet of the order. They certainly did well. FACTS People who Advertise Can sell Goods.

THERE WAS A HOT FIGHT In That Recent Atlantic City Conference Forced By Radicals Who Wanted to Urge Our Voters to Leave the Republican Party—It Was a Battle Royal But They Lost— The Conference's Program Good. WONDERFUL PROGRESS! OFFICERED AND CONDUCTED BY MEMBERS OF THE RACE. Twenty-five Annual Dividends for Its 125,000 Policy Holders—Twenty Million Dollars of Insurance Assets $750,000—Reserve Fund $461,592. (Special to The Gazette.) Jersey City, N. J. — Never before in this or in any other country have serious minded men and women of the race met to discuss and plan ways whereby our people of this country might come into their own on equality with all other groups. Many came to this meeting in the most rebellious spirit. Men and women with grievances came here and poured out those grievances. What the race should do as a voting group was the one great problem before all. Eleighteen states were represented. Only one person was missed. The Associated Press gave the conference the front page in the dailies. Men spoke their mind and allowed the world to know that they were men and would accept nothing less than a MAN would. Two things were evident: Our voters were displeased with the present attitude of the Republican party, not with the mistake. The Associated Press gave the conference the front page in the dailies. Men spoke their mind and allowed the world to know that they were men and would accept nothing less than a MAN would. Two things were evident: Our voters were displeased with the present attitude of the Republican party, not with the mistake. The majority of the conference, for a time, wanted to throw off all party alliance. Some praised the democratic party and its treatment as shown by Tammany Hall in New York. The real battle of the conference ran for four-hours within the committee platform. Two reports ultimately came before the conference. The majority report was signed by 14 persons and the minority, by one. The majority report recommended alliance to no party (independence) but the minority recommended alliance to the Republican party and fight out our troubles within that party. The majority report refused to make any reference to the Tuskegee U. S. Veterans Hospital and the crisis it had brought to the country, neither did it ask for the assistance of the Democratic Anti-Lynching bill. The minority report insisted upon requesting the President to make the hospital "Negro" in all of its parts or raze it; it called for the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill and also passage of a measure that would enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. When the majority had presented its report WONDERFUL Of The National Best Comp OFFICERED AND CONDU THE I Twenty-five Annual Dividers Holders—Twenty Million Assets $750,000—Res Washington, D. C., Aug. 24, 1922—An intensive campaign for new business in Ohio is to be made by The National Benefit Life Insurance Company of Washington, D. C., and to further this plan the stockholders, at a special meeting on August 11, to be organized to increase the stockholder $1 million to $250,000. It is their aim to keep the company the greatest financial organization created, owned, and managed by colored men in the interest of the race. Twenty-five years ago the company was organized as the National Benefit Association by Mr. H. W. Rutherford, a young married colored man, who came to the National Capitol from Lynchburg, Virginia, its total assets were $60,000, with sequestered with uniring energy and faith. He gathered around himself a few loyal supporters and then hustled out after business. His offive furniture consisted of a table and a chair. His salary was $35 the month and he had to earn it by selling policies, and collecting premiums, which he did by pedalling cars around the city on an old bicycle. But from that tiny beginning, by means of hard steady work, intelligent organization, and high-grade personnel, the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, officered and conducted entirely by colored people and developed among men and women of the race, has grown into the large, and commanding position of the twenty-fifth in broken record of twenty-five annual dividends paid to stockholders, with 125,000 benefited policy holders, and $20,000,000 of insurance in force. Its assets are $750,000, including several valuable pieces of real estate in the District of Columbia and four states; a reserve fund of $461,592, a surplus of $100,000 and it has on deposit $236,100 for the protection of policy holders. To carry on its present business the company has established 110 district managers and assistants, 40 local agents and 950 field agents. Its hope of becoming an Old Line Legal Reserve Company with a paid up capital of $100,000,000 materialized in 1918 when its name was officially changed to The National Benefit Life Insurance Company. It operates in some states that no other colored company has yet succeeded in entering. On more than one occasion it has successfully met com- Don't Throw It to a Friend and defended it upon the floor, the minority presented its and defended it, and before the minority had finished there was the spirit which clearly manifested itself—that the minority report met the exigencies of the time. Concessions were made and the committee repaired to its room and brought in a report in which all sides agreed. The minority won a decisive victory when it forced the conference to declare itself Republican and also to include the vital issues omitted by the majority. Upon this report, sent out to the world, all agreed. This means that northern states as well as central and western states, whose Afro-American voters vote, must be satisfied with the status quo of the Republic's conference, by organizing the states, will force these states to treat squarely with our voters, giving them a share in ALL things. The senators and representatives, from these states, must defend on the floors of Congress the good name and interests of our voters. Any senator or representative hostile to absolute equality of all voters is marked for our opposition. The senators from these states must intercede with the federal government and see that our voters be rewarded by the government in proportion to their voting strength. As a result of the bipartisan agreement, entered into by the senators and representatives, the Republic's party has adopted the attitude of the South in its dealing with our voters. It must be broken and our citizens must hold any office under the government that any other group may be appointed to. "Lily-whiteism," within the Republican party, must go and the southern white Republican must not dictate what the party is to give our voters. In districts where Negroes have the majority of votes, the party is asked to dominate our men to the national Congress, and the party is expected to dominate the party that are to organize our voters in every state to carry out this program. Let us see the member of the race opposed to this program. (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd.

It is the only company of its kind incorporated under laws enacted by U. S. Congress for the District of Columbia. With its present plant and plan, everything seems ripe for it to become a veritable insurance gateway of the race. For whatever may eventually bring one within its protecting folds the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, will not disappoint them. This is the basis upon which the business is sought. It is realized that the company has come to stay longer than any of them; possessed perpetual charter, (like the brook goes on forever). It is an educational factor of the highest value in business and is destined to wax mightier and mightier in the unfolding of time with the increase of its business, policy holders and assets. The steady growth of the- National Benefit Life Insurance Company is a testimonial to the faith industry and loyalty of the employees, who entered into the work with an enthusiasm which knew no bounds. But the simple truth is that the man who founded this great and successful business organization for the protection and benefit of the Negro race, was dealing with gigantic forces of life and self-development for a whole people. Mr. Rutherford, following some inner gunging instinct did not at the beginning realize himself an enormous power which he was calling action—the power generated by combining the credit and earnings of a great number for the protection of each individual in time of emergency or need. In a word, co-operation on a great scale with systematic organization and faithful attention to every detail. The National Benefit Life Insurance Company is now doing business in the District of Columbia and in the states of New Jersey, Rhode Island, Maryland, Kentucky, Virginia, Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and within a short time will open offices and establish an administration force in the states of Tennessee, Kansas, Arkansas, Alabama, North Carolina and Missouri. As soon as the pres- Help "Tow Away You d or an Acqu ent stock issue has been sold, application will be made for license to do business in the states of Wisconsin, Indiana, Illinois, and Nebraska. The laws of some of the latter states require a capitalization of not less than $200,000 before license will be granted to do the several kinds of business now written by the company. The company is located in its own five story building at 609 F street, N. W.—where, 25 years ago, young Rutherford had his table and chair, and paid $6 the month as a tenant—which is only one of the properties owned by the company.

DYER FEDERAL ANTILYLNCHING BILL Editor Gazette, Dear Sir—Having heard Congressman Dyer's advocacy of the remedial measures of his bill in Congress for the prevention of lynchings within the states, I was moved to a careful search of the authorities to find a basis of constitutionality for its enactment and effective enforcement. With sincere appreciation for the unusual zeal and real enthusiasm that Mr. Dyer puts into his efforts for the enactment of such a bill and not doubting his own precedent by which the measure would be held constitutional by the U. S. Supreme court should it be passed. The greatest good that can be hoped for is the molding of public sentiment against lynching, I fear that this benevolent effect would be more than counteracted by an adverse decision by the Supreme court, holding the same to be unconstitutional. Thus, re-assuring the authorities of the national evil further immunity from prosecution and encouraging a stronger activity in the continued commission of these crimes. It is a well established fact, so held by the U. S. Supreme court from time to time, that the police power of a state cannot be taken away from it and exercised by the federal government, save in so far as it may have been delegated to it by the citizens of the several states of the union. Police power is declared to be that power inherent with the existence of the state to regulate by governmental function the peace, health, safety, and moralities of its citizens. The congress of the U. S. no general police powers operate over the several states of the union. Stone vs. Miss., 101 U. S., $14, Road vs. Aa, 34 U. S., $645 In respect to the provision in the Fourteenth amendment to the U. S. Constitution for appropriate legislation by congress for its enforcement, and on which Dyer bases constitutional foundation for his bill, the U. S. Supreme court has declared that provision to give congress a corrective power of legislation over the states rather than creative or legislative. In other words, when a state shall have passed a law, upon its face, discriminating between citizens of different states, the congress may enact laws prohibitive to the operation of same. In the Civil Rights bill, passed by congress in 1875, by virtue of the power given it by the Fourteenth Amendment, for the purpose of prohibiting discrimination against Colored people within the states by public places of accommodation, such as hotels, theaters, etc., and public conveyances over land and water, the Supreme court has held such legislation by congress to be clearly unconstitutional and void; that the congress has no legislative authority to enact such laws.

EDITOR REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING People go where they are invited —A. T. Stawart Advertising is as necessary an expenditure as the payment of taxes or rent.—W. Atlee Burpee. Constant and persistent advertising is a sure prelude to wealth—Stephen Girard. Nothing except the mint can make money without advertising.—W. E. Gladstone. Printer's ink will make more of the public wear a pathway to your store. See? The merchant who considers riches a burden should never advertise. His store may be like a summer resort in January. Do YOU advertise? While it is true that occasional advertising will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant, persistent advertising will keep business growing during "dull days." The merchant who never advertises under any circumstances or condition may imagine he is wise, but his competitors have no desire to disturb his imagination. It's a good time to "get awake." MAKE GLOBE MAPS FROM DRAB PAPER MAKE GLOBE MAPS FROM DRAB PAPER --- Improved Varnish Method Prevents Discoloring of Ball. A decided fillip to a little known industry has been given by the war. Hitherto globe maps to be seen in every school room, were made in Germany, there being very few firms in Great Britain who manufactured them. The consequence was that English retailers had to soil thousands of German globes every year not only in this country, but in the derivations over the seas. English made globes were more expensive, but were decided superior to those made in Germany, which were of poor workmanship, and now that the German trade has been killed a determined attempt is to be made to capture the whole of the trade. Few people could say of what substance globes are made, and would be astonished to hear that brown paper is the chief material used. A matrix of wood is covered with strips of brown paper which have been well smoothed with paste. The paper is laid on the matrix until it is about a sixteenth of an inch thick and the globe looks like a football of the association type. When this paper covering is dry, it is cut midway between what will be the two poles, removed from the matrix, and after an axis has been fixed in it, the two hemispheres are glued together. Then this sphere of brown paper is coated with a composition plaster, the ingredients of which are a trade secret and again left to dry. After being tested to see that it is an exact sphere, the meridians are marked on the globe to guide the girls who finish the work. The globe is then fixed in a clamp which holds its axis and a girl takes the engraved gores, cut ready for use, and pastes them on without overlapping. If the globe is exact the gores should fit so exactly that you cannot see where they are in the complete globe. flourishing the metal and woodwork connected with the fitting formed separate industries, but today the globs maker does the whole work on his own premises. It might be mentioned that globes thus made are so strong that a fourteen stone man could stand on one and not break it. Indeed you cannot break one without using great violence. USE UP GOLD TAILINGS Miners Dispose of Ore Left Overs in South Africa About 25,000,000 tons of gold ore is hoisted out of the mines of the Witwatersrand in south Africa every year, and the disposal of the tailings, as the refuse rock is called after it has been crushed to a sand and the gold extracted by the cyanide of potassium process constitutes one of the biggest problems in the operation of some of the mines. As a general thing gold mines are located in a mountainous country, and the tailings can be dumped in almost any quantity down a mountain side, but in the Witwatersrand the country is flat and special methods must be used to prevent the mine and mill from being buried. In the type of tailings conveyor and stacker most commonly used, an inclined steel structure, supported on steel towers, carries a cableway equipped with buckets with which the tailings are carried and dumped in a pile at some distance from the mill. The pile eventually grows to enormous size, and most of the steel structure is buried and lost. These tailing piles are a striking feature of the Witwatersrand, but a great nuisance as well, as in the dry season the wind carries the sand over the whole countryside, unless the pile covered with some such substance as salt, which absorbs enough moisture to prevent the material from being blown away. In some cases the problem is solved by running the tailings back into worked out portions of the mine. -Popular Mechanics. DEVICE TO MEASURE GEARS Patent is Granted for New and Useful Implement. A Rochester, N. Y., man has invented a pair of gear teeth calipers and has been awarded letters of patent. The primary object of the device is to provide a double reading measuring instrument for calculating the depth, breadth and span of gear teeth and measuring any short distances. "CORK LEG" INDUSTRY The cork leg is famillar in works of fiction. In real life such a thing is not, and never has been, cork being just about the most unsuitable material for the purpose that could be imagined. Artificial limbs are made of basswood or willow, supplemented to some extent with leather. The lumber for them is carefully selected and the first step in the making of a false leg is to cut from the raw material a block eight inches square and of the requisite length. Through it a hole is bored lengthwise with a large auger, and then the block is put aside in a dry place and allowed to season. It ought to season for three years. It is then carved in imitation of a real leg, sandpapered to smoothness, hollowed out so as to convert it into a mere shell, and rendered waterproof by a coating of a special kind of varnish. It may be covered with kid, but methods of manufacture vary. The leg is made hollow for the sale of lightness, and also to provide room for the introduction of a strong spiral spring and other elements of the mechanism that is to render the limb a useful and comfortable counterfeit of a real one. An artificial leg of up to date pattern is an ingenious piece of apparatus and there is many a man today who wears one without betraying the fact to the casual observer. Of course if the natural limb has been cut off high up the artificial one must be in two parts, connected by a knee joint. If one must lose a portion of one's ambulatory machinery the most desirable place for the amputation is between the knee and the ankle. Under such circumstances a false member may enable one to walk without limping, or one may even tango satisfactorily, but loss of part of the foot or of the whole foot at the ankle joint means that one must go halting through life. The foot of the artificial leg is in itself an exceedingly clever counterfeit. Its core is part of the same piece of wood that makes the body of the leg. Enveloping this core is rubber, vulcanized on in a series of thin layers, the result being to give the foot a lively springiness, rendering it comfortable for walking and helping to give the wearer a natural gait. An artificial arm is of similar construction, with a wooden core for the hand, which is of vulcanized rubber. But as a substitute for the natural limb it is a poor thing compared to a false leg. The hand is useless for purposes of manipulation and has to be kept covered with a glove. Wires extend through the fingers, so that the latter may be bent into any desired position. Under the law any person who has lost a leg or an arm, a foot or a hand in the service of the United States Government is entitled to an artificial member every three years. This is a very liberal allowance, because a false leg if not abused ought to last eight years. Furthermore the right is not restricted to soldiers and sailors; civilian employees of U.S. Sam can enjoy it likewise. Few artificial arms are asked for by those entitled to them, not more than one arm, indeed, for every 100 legs. Pensioners and others who have lost such members prefer as a rule to accept a money equivalent instead. They are at liberty under the law to draw $50 every three years in lieu of an arm, or if a leg be in question the cash commutation allowed is $75 There are in this country forty old manufacturers of artificial limbs, and their products differ somewhat in style and construction. Congress has declared that the maimed veteran is at liberty to choose his own make of leg or arm. To be fitted with it he may journey to any city in the United States where the false member can be purchased and the Government will pay his traveling expenses, in cluding Pullman car accommodations. It will not pay for his meals enroute, a ruling on the part of Uncle Sam that has elicited a good deal of grumbling. But a crippled old soldier residing in San Francisco may, if he chooses, buy a false leg in Boston, traveling clear across the continent and back at the Government's expense. Some veterans of the civil war once in three years attend the G. A. R. reunions without a cent's cost to themselves for travel, electing as is their privilege to purchase incidentally a limb in the city where the reunion is to be held. Such false legs and arms as can now be bought are of course very modern inventions. It may be taken for granted, however, that artificial substitutes for lost limbs date back to a remote antiquity, Dr. Alex Herdickla of the Smithsonian institution recently dug up in Peru a false foot of wood, apparently prehistoric, which was a mere block with a socket, evidently intended to be fastened to the ankle of a person whose foot had been amputated. Famous in history is the iron hand of Goetz von Berlichingen, a knight of medieval Nuremberg; and there was another nobleman of the same epoch who had a iron foot weighing ten pounds, with which, being an irascible person, he could kick so hard that his servants stole the foot and threw it into the Rhine—N. Y. Sun. A shoe has been patented that laces in the front but has an elastic section at the back so that it can be removed without unlacing. Some men would have no excuse for living if their wives didn't take in boarders. ARE YOU SICK? Are you RUN-DOWN, WEAK, TIRED, EXHAUSTED, WORK- OUT?
