by Government decree. How long will it be before the hateful epithets of "nigger" and "Jim Crow" are openly applied to these sections? Let any one experienced in Washington affairs, or any trained newspaper correspondent answer. The colored people themselves will tell you how soon sensitive and high-minded members of their race will refuse to enter the Government service which thus decrees what is to them the most hateful kind of discrimination. Indeed, there is a widespread belief among them that this is the very purpose of these unwarrantable orders. And wherever there are men who rob the Negroes of their votes who exploit and degrade and insult and lynch those whom they call their inferiors, there this mistake action of the Federal Government will be cited as the warrant for new racial outrages that cry out to high Heaven for redress. Who shall say where discrimination once begun shall cease. Who can deny that every act of discrimination the world over breeds fresh injustice?
State History 4 Natural History 5ocial
To Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States Dear Mr. President:
The National Association for the advancement of Colored People, through its Board of Directors, respectfully protests against the policy of your Administration in segregating the colored employees in the Departments at Washington. It realizes that this new and radical departure has been recommended, and is now being defended, on the ground that by giving bureaus or sections wholly to colored employees that they are thereby rendered safer in possession of their offices and are less likely to be busted or discriminated against. We believe this reasoning to be fallacious. It is based on a failure to appreciate the deeper significance of the new policy; understand how far reaching the effects of such a drawing of caste lines by the Federal Government may be, and how humiliating it is to the men thus stigmatized.
Never before has the Federal Government discriminated against its civilian employees on the ground of color. Every such act heretofore has been that of an individual State. The very presence of the Capitol and of the Federal flag has drawn colored people to the District of Columbia in the belief that living there under the shadow of the National Government itself they were safe from the persecution and discrimination which follow them elsewhere because of their dark skins Today they learn that, though their ancestors have fought in every war in behalf of the United States, in the fiftieth year after Gettysburg and Emancipation, this Government, founded on the theory of complete equality and freedom for all citizens, has established two classes among its civilian employees. It has set the colored apart as if mere contact with them were contamination. The efficiency of their labor, the principles of scientific management are disregarded, the possibilities of promotion if not now will soon be severely limited. To them is held out only the
prospect of mere subordinate routine service without the stimulus of advancemeni to high office by merit, a right deemed invoilable for all white natives as for the children of the foreign born. of Italians, French and Russians, Jews and Christians who are now entering the Governmenn. service. For to such limitation this segregation will inevitably lead. Who took the trouble to ascertain what our colored clerks thought about this order, to which their consent was never asked? Behind screens and closed doors they now sit apart as though leprous. Men and women alike have the badge of inferiority pressed upon their
For the lowly of all classes you have lifted up your voice and not in vain. Shall ten millions of our citizens say that their civic liberties and rights are not safe in your hands? Te ask the question is to answer it. They desire a "New Freedom," too, Mr. Presdent, yet they include in that term nothing else than the rights guaranteed them by the Constitution under which they believe they should be protected from persecution based upon a physical quality with which Divine Providence has endowed them. They ask therefore that you, born of a great section which prides itself upon its chivalry toward the humble and the weak, prevent a gross injustice which is an injustice none the less because it was actuated in some quarters by a genuine desire to aid those now discriminated against.

A honest man or honorably inclined man is entangled into a mess of seemingly unpleasant suspicions. Governor William Sulzer of New York State, against whom articles of impeachment has been filed, grows larger and stronger in the mind of the nation each day of his temporary unfortunate position. His friends unswervingly believe in him and even his enemies who are intensely anxious for his political and official destruction are forced to admire and commend his open, manly and unyielding stand under the greatest and hottest fire of calumny, accusation and conspiracy. Things may look dark and the situation grow acute but the Star hopes and prays for Sulzer's vindication and ultimate triumph. He is fighting and showing himself to be a man among men, a giant against the "machine" asking no favors and giving none. So far Governor Sulzer, has shown himself humanity's best friend in his signing the negro regiment bill, the appointment of negroes to handle the N. Y. Emancipation Exhibition, his ultimatum that all bars against Hebrews in State Militia be let down. "Eccce Eum," fair minded, courageous, and chivalrous.
MRS. M. N. BRAY MAKES PUBLIC STATEMENT. ACKNOWLEDGING HER MISTAKES AND VINDICATING HER HUSBAND.
Ere it is too late to in some way atone for a terrible and unjust injury I have done my husband. I come now to make public the following statement:
Unholy influences have been brought to bear upon me at a time when I was neither strong in body or mind, and, in consequence, I have said and done things which were criminal and destructive in their tendency and nature.
For more than fifteen years I have enjoyed the love, devotion and support of my husband, Rev. H. Franklin Bray, and during that time there has never been the breath of suspicion connected with either his public or private life.
Few wives have had such tender and thoughtful consideration as I have enjoyed these years.
In an hour when I was weak and
for purposes which are perfectly plain to me now. I was approached and influenced to say and do things which I knew full well to be altogether wrong. This whole affair has not only been a painful and bitter experience to my husband, but equally so to me. Heaven only knows how fully I have pald in suffering and remorse of conscience for my mistake.
Quite well did I know that when my husband bought our home on Cherokee street that it was a matter of economy of health and money. This, however, I flatly refused to acknowledge, being influenced not to do so by evil-designing persons.
Nothing in my life has brought me greater regret than this whole unfortunate affair.
God has heard my petition and given me the victory over my weakness. With the prayer that my patient and devoted husband, whom I have in my mad frenzied misrepresented, will forgive me, I am.
Yours for justice and honesty.
MRS. M. N. BRAY.

LUNA PARK AGAIN
Out at Luna Park, nearly every day in the year, our people are refused the privileges to skate, dance, bathe, etc., freely accorded to the denizens of the tenderloin, just so they happen to be "white," who go out there and apply for them. And yet there are "Negroes" who will attempt to enrich the treasury of the Luna Park management at least once a year, usually in August and September, by attracting a crowd of their own kind to that place of amusement. What has become of the Negroe's manhood, self-respect, race pride and about everything else, who will so truckle to anything or anybody in an effort to make a few "tainted" dollars, for themselves or anything or anybody else in such a miserable way? That the alleged "emancipation celebration," on August 4th, and the "picnic" on August 18, were not the financial successes anticipated, and the "celebration," last year, was a failure, is due to the fact that the great mass of manly and womanly Afro-Americans of this community refused to attend them. The few who did, went with apologies on their lips, as a rule, and explained that they were there because relatives, some church or other organization with which they were connected, was directly interested in some phase of the unfortunate affair. Last year, led by the lamented Dr. G. A. Sissle, and other members, our Ministers' Alliance of this city was active in the support of the position The Gazette has maintained all along in this matter. This year the Alliance failed to take the loyal and aggressive stand of last year, but individual members of it, like Drs. Chas. Bundy and H. C. Bailey, spoke out against the "celebration" like MEN, from their pulpits, prior to August 4th. All honor to them—loyal, fearless and manly race men. Again, the privileges accorded Negroes in that park, even on August 4th and August 16th, were limited. We are informed that the dancing pavillion and roller-skating rink were not opened to them until 6 p.m. and 9:45 p.m. respectively, and that the swimming pool was closed to them both day and evening, as was the case last year. The crowd in attendance was away below expectations, and the attendance at the dinner of the "associ hatpromoted th

August 4 affair, also fell short there being many empty plates. The fact that white men and women eagerly entered upon the floor to dance amongst the Negroes, each evening, in spite of the effort to keep them off, stamps as false the statement that they (whites) object to dancing beside or with our people, in this city. It is this false premise assumed by prejudiced managements that cause color-lines to be drawn in such public places; and it is our people who, with the law favoring them, permit them to be drawn day after day, and year after. SHAME, O SHAME! The whole conduct of the entertainments, at Luna Park, August 4 and August 16, showed the indifference of the Negro managements, toward their rights, and the courtesies due their manhood (?) and citizenship. And still our short-sighted Negroes continue "fattening frogs to feed snakes"; for, two more of the organizations are announcing 'outings,' this and next month at color-line Luna Park where they are welcomed on some "special" or particular day out of the three hundred and sixty-five days of the year, and even then, in a restricted or limited way. May God help them "to see the light as they should" and stop their efforts at such "business" for any purpose whatsoever.

VACATION TIME AT SHAW.
How Professor Edwardd' Energy Enlives Things at Noted School.
Raleigh, N. C.-The vacation of the students of Shaw university has not completely made the campus of the institution lonely. The man who is constantly at his desk creating new life in various departments of industries is Professor G. A. Edwards, who can be found in his office any month in the year.
As far south as Mississippi this energetic head of the industrial departments of Shaw and one of the leading Afro-American architects in the country has buildings, the product of his brain, in course of construction for people of both races. Standing out pre-eminently as the result of his ability is the new hospital at Shaw, with which will soon be associated another beautiful brick structure, known as Theological hall.
It will have three stories and a basement and will have all modern improvements and will accommodate fifty-two students. The theologs will have all of their recitation rooms in this building, and the Young Men's Christian association will have well appointed quarters in the basement. Professor Edwards will superintend the construction of this building, and if the same was given to a contractor it would not cost less than $18,000. This will be one of the most attractive buildings on the campus and will reflect much credit upon Professor Edwards' skill.
He has recently completed plans, which were accepted, for a brick building for the local Odd Fellows to cost $22,000, and the Christian church, now in the course of erection, at a cost of $27,000. Professor Edwards is the head industrial worker of Shaw. He is certainly helping our people in this section to procure comfortable homes, which means so much to the community life of the race.
SOUTH IMPRESSES TYLER.
Business League Organizer Says Race's Progress Greatly Inspires Him.
Greenwood, Ala.—What I have seen in the way of material progress among the colored people on this my first trip into the south has been a revelation and an inspiration, said the former auditor for the navy department, Ralph W. Tyler, now national organizer for the National Negro Business league. I have been greatly impressed, contrary to my early teaching and belief, with the fact that for the average Negro the south offers the best assurance of steady employment unhampered by labor unions and that for the Negro above the average the south offers the best opportunity for the accumulation of wealth.

Grand Lodge to Hold Overflow Meeting in Atlantic City.
Atlantic City, N. J.—The fourteenth annual convention of the grand lodge Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World will be held in this city from Sunday, Aug. 24 to Aug. 30 inclusive. The annual sermon to the order will be preached on Sunday, the 24th. by Rev. George Avant of Newbern, N. C., grand chapain of the organization, at the St. James A. M. E. church.
On Monday the local lodge will keep open house all day at the Elks' Home for the reception of the delegates as they arrive in the city. Arrangements have been made to have representatives of the local order meet all trains to assist the delegates in reaching the hotels and cottages where accommodation has been provided. In the evening at half after 8 a public session of the grand lodge will be held in Fitzgerald's auditorium, at which time the Hon. William Riddle, mayor of Atlantic City, will welcome the convention on behalf of the city.
The first session of the grand lodge and grand temple will be held on Tuesday morning, and the entertaining committee has provided for sightseeing, bathing and rolling chair parties in the afternoon. In the evening the delegates and friends will be the guests of the ladies' auxiliary, who will hold a reception at the Elks' Home.
The opening address to the 700 delegates, representing nearly 200 subordinate lodges, will be made by the Hon. William Riddle, mayor of Atlantic City, who will welcome the delegates and visitors on behalf of the city. This will be followed by the Hon. Walter E. Edge, who will make the address of welcome on behalf of the state of New Jersey.
The second session of the grand lodge and grand temple will be held on Wednesday morning, and in the afternoon there will be an outing at Longport by the trolley lines along the ocean front. There will also be a trip to the famous Elephant hotel. In the evening, at 9 o'clock, Ocean temple will tender a reception at the Elks' home to the visiting delegates.
Thursday will be the gala day of the convention, for it is expected the grand session will adjourn at noon in order to give the delegates ample time to make arrangements to join the marching clubs for the grand parade that is scheduled to start at 1 o'clock in the afternoon. This parade will be over the principal streets of the city and will end at the famous Inlet park, where will be held the annual field day. In the evening all Elks will assemble for the annual re-union and grand ball and reception, which will be held in the grand ballroom of Youngs' Million Dollar pier. The ballroom floor of this magnificent pier will accommodate 5,000 dancers with absolute comfort, and it is predicted that this will be the largest reception in the history of the lodge.
The last session of the grand lodge and grand temple will be held on Friday morning. On account of the election of the grand officers it is expected that this session will last quite all day.

Zion was crowded all day last Sunday, notwithstanding a funeral in the afternoon. Many visitors were greeted, everyone of whom was doubly welcome and is invited to return.

THE "PORO" SYSTEM of Scalp and
Hair treatment is based on the la-
test scientific and sanitary methods,
effecting a healthy scalp thus promo-
ting a growth of beautiful hair.
The "Poro" preparations used in connection with the treatment are made and sold exclusively by myself, having the exclusive right to that name; and I, alone, know the secret of the composition that bears that name. Our claim has always been that when the hair begins to grow as the result of the use of "PORO," it will continue to do so if only the scalp and hair be kept clean. This sanitary method of treatment is also having the desired effect in helping to prevent the spread of diseases, for it is a fact that hair in an unsanitary condition carries the germs of disease which often prove fatal to innocent persons coming in contact with them. For treatment, call on or address:

LYNCHING SCORED BY PRESIDENT
Advocated Rope For Lynchers In Recent Address.
CALLS IT COWARDLY MURDER.
Republican Party Has Always Stood For Law and Order—Democratic Party Has Condoned Lawlessness. President Taft Has Denounced Lynching In Many Public Utterances. In forty years more than 5,000 persons have been the victims of mobs. Vardamans, Miss., has the largest number to its discredit. Afro-Americans have been lynched for such causes as race prejudice, informing, making threats, unpopularity, slapping a child, being troublesome, testifying against white persons, enticing servants away and in many cases for no cause whatever.
The Republican party is essentially the party of law and order. While the Democratic party has condoned lawlessness, the Republican party has always stood for the supremacy of the law. The majority of the lynchings have taken place in states controlled by the Democratic party.
President Taft has denounced lynching in the strongest terms in many public utterances.
President Taft Advocates the Rope For Lynchers.
At a meeting held April 9, 1912, in the Metropolitan A. M. E. church, Washington, for the purpose of raising funds for the building of a gymnasium at Howard university President Taft condemned mob law in vigorous language. The president did not mince his words, and he was greeted with thundering applause when he declared with emphasis, "The man that pulls the rope should hang by the rope." President Taft said in part: "Now, take the matter of lynching. That as well as the administration of our criminal law forms a disgraceful page in our social history. [Hearty applause.] I just think it is well to take a text on that subject. [Prolonged applause and cheers.]
"Now, I know that our courts are not perfect. I know that they don't apply the law with certainty and dispatch in the criminal cases as they ought to, and I believe that part of this departure from laws as is the case in lynching and disorder is due to the fact that courts are not certain and are not full of dispatch in the justice meted out in criminal cases. But we must not attribute it all to the courts. There is among our people a disposition to forget the sanctity of the law and not to know that no civilization in any country can live unless the law is respected. [Prolonged applause.] Now, lynching is claimed by some to be justified because, as they say, it is applied only to the person guilty of one special crime that is particularly heinous to all of us. But that is not true. Statistics show that lynching is applied to those charged with a great many crimes, and the moment you transgress once and the moment the mob acquires the wolfish desire for human blood the example is dreadful to the community in which the exhibition of lawlessness is given. [Prolonged applause.] And there is not any crime—I don't care what it is—that justifies a departure from the law or the summary punishment by a mob of the person who is charged with guilt. [Prolonged applause.] It is one of the serious questions that we have to face in this country. We have not among all of our people as profound a respect for the law and the necessity for obedience to it as we ought to have, and that is part of the reason why we have this exhibition of lawlessness over the country and these cruel murders, for that is what they are, for it is no less a murder when 400 participate in the killing of one man. Ordinarily it is accompanied by a great deal more of cowardice by reason of the fact that 400 are engaged in such a crime.
"AND THE ONLY WAY BY WHICH IT CAN BE SUPPRESSED IS THAT SOME TIME WE SHALL HAVE MEN AS SHERIFFS, MEN AS GOVERNORS AND AS PROSECUTORS AND AS JURORS, WHO WILL SEE TO IT THAT THE MEN ENGAGED IN PULLING THE ROPE UNDER THOSE CONDITIONS SHALL THEMSELVES SWING BY THE ROPE. [Hearty applause and cheering.] Wherever it occurs it is to be condemned and rooted out, and this can only be done by developing an individual and public opinion demanding the enforcement of the law. And I hold that every one who tends to minimize respect for constituted authority and respect for the law and fails to follow it just as it is contributes to the continuance of that lawlessness which we deplore theoretically, but, I am sorry to say, at the same time we express too much sympathy with actually."
Party principles have not changed. The Democratic party is the same today as it was before the war, so far as the Afro-American is concerned.
The Afro-American has everything to gain by the triumph of the Republican party, the party which stands for freedom and human rights.
LECTURER'S LONG TOUR.
Great Work of Dr. S. N. Vass For Religious Uplift.
The lecture tour of the Rev. Dr. S. N. Vass this summer has taken him across the continent. He began with a great institute meeting in the Zion Baptist church in Washington the 8th of June. Dr. W. J. Howard, pastor of the Zion Baptist church, arranged for the meetings, which not only benefited the members of his own parish, but the people of the community in general. Dr. Vass is a recognized authority on Bible history, and his lectures cover most of the important periods in both the Old and New Testaments.
Sunday school teachers and leaders in whatever line of Christian work whose privilege it has been to study under Dr. Vass have afterward rendered better and more effective service. From Washington the lecturer went to Chicago, where the Y. M. C. A. and the ministers' conference united in the arrangements for holding
PETER H.
REV. DR. S. N. VASS.
the Bible institute, as the meetings are called. These institutes are held for one or two weeks in one place, just as circumstances warrant. The Chicago meetings were well attended and very profitable to those who took the course as outlined in the lecture program, which was changed at each session.
In Kansas City, Mo., Dr. Vass lectured for one week in the high school building under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A., of which Mr. R. B. De Fratz is secretary. Mr. Edward Ross is chairman of the religious work committee of this association, which has taken the lead of all other associations in this kind of religious extension work. From Kansas City Dr. Vass continued his journey without stop over until he reached Los Angeles, Cal., where a meeting had been arranged for him by Dr. J. L. McCoy, under the auspices of the Baptist ministers' conference of the city.
At Bakersfield the meetings were arranged by the Rev. Dr. McPherson, who was very enthusiastic in getting the news of Dr. Vass' coming spread among his people. Dr. Hawkins worked up the meetings for Dr. Vass in Oakland, and Dr. Riddle and his congregation in San Francisco vied with all others in making the meetings at their church among the best held by the noted teacher in that section.
On the return trip Dr. Vass stopped off at Denver, where he lectured for the Rev. Dr. David E. Overs and his congregation. He has been engaged in this kind of Christian work for over twenty years as superintendent of the American Baptist Publication society. Dr. Vass expects to return to his home, Raleigh, N. C., the last week in August.
AMOS WILLIAMS AS HERO.
Quick Presence of Mind Prevents Fatal Accident to Clergyman.
Amos Williams, a farmer living near Poughkeepsie, N. Y., recently saved the lives of the Rev. I. T. Stafford and wife, who were in danger of being killed in a runaway accident. Dr. and Mrs. Stafford were driving a spirited horse attached to a light wagon. The raising of the top to the vehicle frightened the animal, which started in a mad rush down a steep rocky road. Mr. Williams saw the dangerous position in which the couple were and by quick presence of mind tore a rail from the fence and felled the fleeing animal to the ground. Thus we have another evidence of the valor and kind heartedness of Afro-Americans toward their white fellow human beings.
Training School Publishes Newspaper.
The Worker is the name of a neat little monthly paper published by the National Training School For Women and Girls at Lincoln heights in Washington. The paper is devoted to the work of the institution and carries monthly statements of its needs, help received and what it is accomplishing along all lines of active endeavor. The motto is "Work-support thyself-to thine own powers appeal." Miss Nannie Helen Burroughs, president of the school, is a tireless worker for race advancement, and under her wise leadership many friends of both races have become interested in the institution and are giving generous financial aid.
H. W. Beecher Centenary Celebration.
A movement to celebrate the one-hundredth anniversary of the birth of Henry Ward Beecher has been started by the colored citizens of Brooklyn. George E. Wibecan, chairman of the committee, in explaining the call for such a celebration says:
"The call for this observation does not mean anything but a desire to honor the memory of a great man. Henry Ward Beecher was not alone a friend to the colored people but to humanity generally.

Hint to the Wise Is Sufficient—More to Life Than Merely to Live.
Quite a place, occupied by several Negroes, went an observing one. Everyone of them were happy, carefree, laughter, fun-making, apparently content with life and all conditions.
Another stop of the observing one was among some Caucasians who sat about; none were laughing, some read, others sat in thought, a few quietly discussing various conditions, complaining of none better, and still others planning how to harness and conserve Nature's unused energy. All were serious, none seemed satisfied. The last stop and the observer entered a room of Japanese. Meal time approached, the house was full, but the observer knew it not, neither by the noise nor sounds they made. Quiet conversation, deep thought, almost complete silence, but the atmospheres seemed charged with on indefinable something suggesting assurance, concentration and intensity. There mused the observer in his mind concerning the spectacles and observed, Caucasians thoughtful, dissatisfied; Javanese thoughtful, silent; Negro unthinking, NOISY—A sad truth—shall not the Negro learn? Herein lies life's success. Wake up, Mr. Negro. Wake up!—New Age.
DIGGS-CAMINETTI WHITE
SLAVERY.
Out in California, having been befriended by the Attorney General and democratic administration and surrounded by their loyal friends, money and influence, Messrs. Diggs and Camnett are being tried for white slavery, whereil the honor of two young white girls is involved. Such a broad contract with the Jack Johnson case, pursued, hunted down and a state case of two years' standing filed against him, and he was put to trial with the whole legal machinery of the government arrayed against him, together with the poisonous race hate the public press was daily belching forth and denounced from every rostrum, by white and black alike, and seemingly no friends to cheer and sympathize with him. In his case no honor of any young, inexperience woman impelled them to persecute him, only a deep-seated, unrelenting prejudice urged them on. Judge Carpenter rightly asked, "Was the Mann Act intended to protect and sield a woman of disrepute who made her living selling her body and violating our moral code?" If not, then Johnson is not guilty. But in the Diggs-Cametti cases, a well-planned and carefully filled-out program was laid and carried out, not only in California, but in Nevada, by married men of wealth and influence whose families were respectable and prominent. Diggs was guilty and the penitentiary stares him in the face, while Camnett is sure to get the same dose of medicine. Regardless of the pull with the Tennessee Attorney General and administration, justice came to the guilty race, position, influence to the contrary, notwithstanding.
Whis is the worse, to be worthy and deserving and be dismissed from the Department of Justice because you are colored, as in Lewis' case, or attempt to shield wreckers of homes, deserts of families and libertines and only be forced to trial by the public press, as was the case of the Attorney General? Which, I say, is more superiority shown?
Is Suffrage a Failure Among Negro Women?
The full crew bill which for a time threatened the very existence of our railroad men, has caused the organization of the railroad men to meet the exigencies of the future. An organized few is better than a disorganized many. Their protection and preservation demanded a centralization and concentration of their scattered forces. Just so true is it that Negro women voters of Colorado, who number about 11,000, must come together politically and have some kind of recognition. Not a colored woman in a state, city or county position. Think of it! Men can no longer get jobs on the voting strength of their women. It is the women who do, deserve, and should get the positions. White women organized and as a consequence were not only appointed to office, but were elected to honorable positions. And why our women have not, do not, will not, or cannot do the thd some is a mystery to us. Denver

has 500 women voters and not a representative in any position! How has suffrage in Colorado helped the Negro women? Have they really been benefited? What have they done that can be attributed to their suffrage? In club work and kindred organizations, we readily recognize the woman's influence, power and accomplishments, but in suffrage has she been a dismal failure? If so, why so, and if not, cannot you improve on the past by organizing for women? Women must become narrow before they can get strength to force recognition.

After several weeks of continued pleasure and entertainment, Mrs. John Saunders and daughters of Los Angeles left for their home Thursday evening.
"To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again, to right the wrongs of many."
Read Citizens, sign your name and address and mail to the editor of this paper.
To the President of the United State Hon. Woodrow Wilson, White House, Washington, D.C. Sir: This is to certify that we, the undersigned, are surprised and indignant that under your administration there should be any rules made by members of your cabinet to segregate employees of the national government by race or color. We protest against this as a plain insult, public degradation, and insufferable injury to Colored Americans, the establishment of caste in this free Republic. We petition you to reverse, prevent and forbid any such movement by your bureau chiefs, in accord with your promise of fair, friendly, just and Christian treatment of your Colored fellow-citizens.
This movement is being fostered by all the leading Colored Journals.

HALF CENTURY OF PROGRESS
STORY OF SEVERE CONFLICT
Illinois Emancipation Association, With Headquarters In Chicago, Starts Movement For Holding a National Semicentennial Exposition — Broad Scope of Purpose and Plan. Chicago.—The purpose of the National Semicentennial Emancipation Exposition Association of Illinois, with headquarters in this city, is given in the following statement by the committee on address to the country:
On the first day of February, 1805, the thirteenth amendment to the federal constitution was proposed to the Thirty-eighth congress by the Hon. John B. Henderson, senator from Missouri. On the 18th of December of the same year the amendment was proclaimed and ratified by the Hon. William H. Seward, secretary of state, thus abolishing slavery and all forms of involuntary servitude except for crimes.
By this beneficent act of universal freedom over 4,000,000 colored people in the United States were given bodily emancipation. Ignorant, poor and debased by 250 years of the worst system of human slavery the world has ever witnessed, they faced the dawn of freedom with a resolute determination to measure up to the requirements of their new responsibilities. How well the race has met the requirements of freedom and citizenship can best be told or portrayed by concrete evidence of their achievements and development. In 1915 the former slaves will have been emancipated just fifty years—a short period, indeed, in the history of a race or people. Nevertheless these years are fraught with wonderful meaning to the former slaves and their descendants because of the things they have accomplished and the obstacles they have overcome. As a race they have constantly been on trial, and too frequently the presumptions have all been against them. They have been forced, therefore, to work out their own salvation, as it were, not only with fear and trembling, but with a consciousness that the world at large has but meager knowledge of their struggles, their development and their achievements.
The transition from slavery to freedom is always a critical period in the progress and development of a race. A combination of unfavorable circumstances has made this period doubly trying to the emancipated people of this country. The standard by which their efficiency and their achievements are measured is that represented by the ripest culture and development of Caucasian civilization. In meeting this severe test their friends have often expected too much of them, while their enemies have met every attempt on their part to enter into the full enjoyment of a freeman's estate with hostile legislation, bitter denunciation and the spreading of race hatred and prejudice throughout the world.
Viewed, therefore, in the light of their peculiar condition and environment their achievements in their social life, their educational and literary development and in the field of mechanical arts and constructive genius have a more inspiring significance and should attract more attention than those of any other race or people in the world. This semicentennial of their emancipation offers the colored people of this country their first opportunity of demonstrating to the world what freedom has done for them.
A national semicentennial emancipation exposition to be held at Chicago during the months of August and September, 1915, is the object and aim of the organization sending out this communication and it is earnestly hoped that it will meet with the hearty approval of the colored men and women of the United States and the generous support of their friends. In launching this movement for a national exposition there is not the slightest intention to antagonize the various state expositions now under way.
With an exposition broad enough in scope and purpose to comprehend not only their achievements of brain and brawn, but to give to the world some adequate conception of their wonderful capacity for entering into harmony with and assimilating the highest culture and laudable aims of our twentieth century civilization the race will be able for the first time in its history to give the world a glimpse of the inner soul of a people striving to lift itself from the galling curse of a demoralizing slavery to the glories and blessings of a great civilization.
Let colored architects design the buildings, let colored artisans rear the structures and let colored men and women direct and superintend the exposition. We feel assured that the results will justify the outlay in money, time and energy and will prove a creditable offering to the world's achievement. Beauregard F. Moseley, president; Frank F. Hamilton, general secretary. Committee on address to the country. Mrs Ida B. Wells Barnett, Hon. F E J. Lloyd, Julius F. Taylor, Louis B. Anderson, Walter M. Farmer, chairman.

President John H. Murphy at the Annual Meeting In Philadelphia Told How to Secure Better News Service. P. B. Young Spoke on Intricate Problems of Publishers.
Philadelphia.—With 126 publications represented the fifth annual meeting of the National Negro Press association was called to order in Cherry Memorial Baptist church in this city Monday morning, Aug. 18. N. B. Dodson, chairman of the executive committee, after making brief introductory remarks, introduced Dr. R. R. Wright, Jr., editor of the Christian Recorder and chairman of the local committee on entertainment, who presided over the meeting, during which time addresses of welcome were made by Christopher J. Perry, editor of the Tribune, and Dr. William M. Slowe. The response to these addresses was made by Mr. Charles Stewart of Chicago.
Abstracts from the proceedings of the Chicago meeting, 1912, and the midwinter meeting held in this city February, 1913, were read by Mr. Henry Allan Boyd, corresponding secretary. Mr. Boyd's report showed that a great work had been accomplished. The membership has been increased to 103. A newspaper directory, printers and publishers' guide, has been compiled, printed and distributed to members of the association. The directory gives the number of publications in each state, name of editors, when issued and kind of paper, whether secular or religious. It is illustrated with pictures of some of the general officers of the association, various cuts showing portions of the plant of the National Baptist Publishing House in Nashville, Tenn., and other display advertisements.
It carries a grouped picture of four of the oldest and best known editors among our people, such as John H. Murphy, editor of the Afro-American

Thomas Fortune, who is recognized as the dean of the quill brigade. Mr. Fortune is the founder and was for over twenty-five years editor of the New York Age.
"How to Secure Better News Service to Our Papers" was the subject for discussion for the afternoon session Monday. Mr. J. H. Murphy read the able paper, giving various suggestions as to how to secure quicker news service and how all papers belonging to the association might combine to syndicate the news to each other weekly. Mr. Murphy's paper was referred to the executive committee for action. Following this discussion Mr. P. B. Young, editor of the Norfolk Virginia Journal and Guide, read an interesting paper on "Expert Methods of Extending Newspaper Circulation and the Management of Agents."
Mr. Young said: "That these were two of the most intricate problems with which publishers have to deal. The methods of which I am speaking are those which have been used from time to time in my experience and may be familiar to all. If you have tried them all, you have gained some experience and perhaps results. If you have not tried them all you are fortunate in some respects, as some of them are experimental and expensive. Getting subscriptions is an easy proposition, but holding subscribers is the real problem.
"I have reached the conclusion that there is one practical way to hold subscribers and that is to create a public demand for your newspaper. There was a time when the personality of the editor was the chief asset for the newspaper in building and extending its circulation, but that time has passed. We young men cannot build

RESOLUTIONS.
Whereas, it has pleased the Almighty God, our father, to call from this earthly tabernacle, my wife, Laura Wilson. I bow in humble submission to Him that doeth all things well and say the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away; blessed be the name of the Lord, for it is well done. Sleep on, dear wife; take thy rest. I know that you are at rest with God, the Father; there forever to abide. And to my many friends, I wish to thank all for their kindness shown during her illness and for the many beautiful flowers, not only after death, but during her lifetime. May the Lord and add His blessings to every one of you and may the time come when I shall be able to repay. I thank you, I thank you. Sisters, I thank you for your many nights of care and toil.
CARL WILSON.

MOTHERS! HAVE YOUR CHILDREN WORMS?
Are they feverish, restless, nervous, irritable, dizzy or constipated? Do they continually pick their nose or grind their teeth? Have they cramping pains, irregular and ravenous appetite? These are all signs of worms. Worms not only cause your child suffering, but stunt its mind and growth. Give "Kickapoo Worm Killer" at once. It kills and removes the worms, improves your child's appetite, regulates stomach, liver and bowels. The symptoms disappear and your child is made happy and healthy, as nature intended. All druggists or by mail, 25c.

It is the intention of this paper to publish all your news most willingly, but the practice of publishing names in articles we must discourage, as names are not necessary, or as guests of honor or winners of prizes. Then, too, names are so apt to be wrong, and in order to treat all alike we make this rule. Some wish to pay; we do not wish to publish even under those conditions. There are many other reasons and we hope the public will clearly understand.
