While she was a true and quiet wife retiring in her manner, yet few men and women in this city had more sincere friends white and black than she. The funeral was held from the home, 1115 Inca St., Wednesday afternoon and was largely attended by her many friends and acquaintances, who sent many beautiful floral tributes. Never was there any unpleasantness, no disputes were known to mar their long continued happiness and the bond of love once incipient, continued steadfast and only

No broken shaft need mark her last resting place to commemorate an unfinished life, for with her the last duty had been accomplished, and the closing chapter bearing the inscription "the end" had been written and life's curtain had silently and gently descended. She has gone to her last and well earned rest, gone to meet those of her loved ones, who preceded her.

In the fulfillment of this, the happy home has been plunged in deepest sorrow, the heartstrings of love, the like of which will never again be known, and affections of those whom she left have been pierced with grief and a place made vacant that never can be filled.

A Plea For Simple Justice Before President Wilson.
A Plea For Simple Justice Before President Wilson.
National Pre-Election Pledge of Governor Wilson Made to National Independence Political League.
Govenor Woodrow Wilson, the national Democratic candidate for the high office of president of the United States, in declaring his attitude toward the Negro race says: I was born and raised in the south. There is no place where it is easier to cement friendship between the two races than in the south.
"They understand each other better than elsewhere. The colored people may feel assured of my entire comprehension of their ambition. I am willing and desire to deal with them fairly and justly." Governor Wilson also says: "If elected to the presidency I shall observe the law in its letter and spirit. And this is, after all, a rather low standard. I shall do it in the spirit of the Christian religion. As president I shall try to be a Christian gentleman. I will accord even handed justice and equal rights to all regardless of race or color."
In times before now when TRUTH desired a hearing and liberty a voice, men and women in revolutioary period, during the times leading up to the civil war and ever afterward, have looked to the president of all the nation (we, the people of the U. S.) for aid and encouragement. The walls of the White House and Congress have been made to articulate with the cry of the oppressed, not only of our country, but throughout the whole world.
No spot on earth should be more sacred to truth, liberty, freedom and justice than the ground upon which the White House rests. It should be a hostile challenge to tyrants and tyranny. In times before now good old God fearing and justice-loving white men and women representing the best heart and brain of the nation thronged Congress and the White House to plead for liberty, justice and a small chance for the poor oppressed blacks whose shackles had lately fallen from them. Today the burden rests upon the black men and women to go everywhere—hearing can be had, even to the White House before a president of Southern parentage, inclinations and feelings, and there appeal to him as their highest representative or misrepresentative of public opinion, asking that Christian civilization be made supreme over barbarism, caste, contumely and savagery.
Having been imbued with a peaceful spirit to talk over for adjustment the disgusting humiliations of caste now put into force by the Democratic Wilson's administration against ten millions of American citizens, W. M. Trotter, Maurice Spencer, Byron Gunner and others called upon the president of all the people of all the States to thoroughly acquaint him with the facts of this new race segregation. The committee doubtless had in its mind the spreading of lynching and burnings of Negro men and women until it became a national crime which had reached far beyond the helpless victims who perish horribly before the fury of the "law-abiding orderly mobs."
They had in mind the "Jim-Crow laws" enacted and their history. They recalled how the desire of the former slaveholding states sprang out to repress the Negro. They knew that the South, in order to justify itself in these barbarities, began by blackmailing the Negroes character, by painting him as a monster who menaced the safety of women. And by continually drumming this into the ears of this country and of the world, they have finally so quieted the public conscience that now a Negro charged with any crime at all may be lynched with impunity anywhere in the South, and occasionally in the North.
Nobody was more familiar than they, that the conscience of the nation had become so seared that it is no longer uorrified when in the States of Colorado, Pennsylvania or Georgia a human being is burned at death at the stake. How well did they know that the newspaper press does not now use its great engine of influence to arouse public opinion against this inquity, while the pulpit which should be the first to lead in an attempt to purge the nation of this fault but is, for the most part, silent.
Bitter was it incouched into their memory, that Negroes themselves were largely to blame for the contempt in which they were held, and the impunity with which their liberties may be invaded.
Yet, in at least seven of the States of this Union the Negro holds the balance of political power, and it was in these States where the Negro had been misguided and deceived into voting for Wilson by W. M. Trotter and the National Independence Political League. To go to see the president under such circumstances is no pink tea affair. For

Wilson's Waiting and Watching Policy as Seen by 'LaEstrella'
(La Estrella will from time to time take up live topics of interest to the general public, and more especially of interest to that part of the population known as the colored people of the United States, which in numerical strength forms one tenth of the population of these United States. "The land of the free (?) and the home of the brave." Politics which "La Estrella maintains is so interwoven in the every day affairs of all Americans, and we believe of vital importance to the industrial and working class of which the colored American forms such a large part, we have selected to day a few things along that line. Especially as regards the present National Democratic administration)
Wilson's Watchful Waiting Policy being the main cry of the democratic orators in our very recent election, we shall make some queries about the so-called "watchful waiting policy." In the first place we believe the Professor-President has been given credit for doing simply what every President of the U.S. since Washington made his historic farewell address, would have done and that is keep hands off, and not enter into any entangling alliance with foreign nations. But is it not a fact that our soldiers were hurried down to Vera Cruz to enforce the demand to have Huerta salute the American flag, which is claimed he insulted through some Mexican soldiers arresting American army men and officers on Mexican soil? Vera Cruz was taken by the United States, but has Huerta saluted the American flag? Although this government refused to recognize him as President of the Mexican Republic. Have the political factions in Mexico ceased fighting? Have the outrages on Americans stopped or even become less?
In short what have we accomplished in the Mexico affair by the Watchful waiting policy toward Mexico? In view of the fact that Secretary of State Bryan has made it known that on the 23rd of Nov. the American troops will evacuate Vera Cruz. In all seriousness what has the watchful, waiting policy accomplished? God knows we believe the first chapter in our policy with Mexico in not totally intervening, nor absolutely abstaining from intervention will go down in history as one of the many mistaken policies of the Wilson administration. Segregation of Government employees in the various departments in our National Capital, such as has never been known before since the Negro became a citizen, is another topic which "La-Estrella" wil deal with in a future communication. But

Agitate, Organize, Act For Self-Preservation.
e, Act For
of Preservation.
The colored people of the United States are face to face with a determined effort by certain Southern Democrats to subject them to segregation under the federal government at the national capital. They are purposely trying to put the stamp of approval of the national government on this most degrading of race discriminations to nationalize it. They seek to do this now, when the national Democratic party is in control of the executive and both branches of the legislative branch of the federal government. Only a tremendous campaign against this will avail to defeat this purpose. The foundation and back-bone of this campaign must be the colored people themselves. They must appeal and petition and protest to the president and congress. They must agitate and arouse the latent sense of justice and respect for free institutions in the white people of America. They must begin to do this at once. This can only be done by a very great number of individual colored Americans acting along these lines. In addition there must be agitation and action by organizations of colored people in every or nearly every state in the Union.
One has only to be at the national capital and see what is going on to be convinced of this. It is not a party fight, and partisan lines should be ignored. The danger is through the federal government and we are all citizens of it and should all exert a pressure upon the federal government, both direct and through others. We appeal to the race to realize the danger and to exert their powers as citizens at once and as never before. We can win if we will work—Guardian.
The Independent On Segregation
We are amazed and ashamed that this new and insulting order should have been promulgated now. We wonder what Southern influence should have dared to risk the result of it, if it did not mind the injustice of it. It is an act that ought to excite opposition and condemnation much more serious than any tariff policy that divides the parties; for this is not a matter of money merely, it is a matter of justice, of equal rights, of fair play, to men and women as worthy of consideration as the best of us. These colored people, who are thus set apart as unfit to be in the same room as their fellow servants of the country, are human beings, they are not pariahs. Those who insult them, who refuse to give them an equal chance with themselves, lack not merely the instincts of ladies and gentlemen, but the sense of justice, which is the basis of a free and equal government. President Wilson will do a righteous act if he interdicts this discrimination against American citizens. He has spoken well for the Jews Roumania. Will he not say a noble word for Negroes in his own country, who are under his own orders, his own protection?

Our pastor will fill the pulpit morning and evening tomorrow. His sermon topics will be as follows: 11:00, "Temptation, its Place and Purpose in the Life of Christ." 7:30, "Methods of Salvation."
Our new choir is rapidly coming into its own. The impression made last Sabbath, both in point of attendance and music rendered, was good.
The folks at the parsonage think Brother A. Dyer a fine marksman and a fine member. Last week, on his return from a hunting trip, he left three fat ducks for the pastor's family, which they greatly enjoyed and for which they are deeply grateful.
Our Deaconess Board held a profitable meeting at the home of Mrs. Angie Brookins, 2527 Tremont, last Friday. During the absence of Mrs. Unity Hall, its president, Mrs. Brookins is in charge. Plans for increased activity were adopted.
Our women led by Mrs. Anna Whims claim that the only reason why Mr. Obryant and the men will be second Thanksgiving day, is because there will be no third. A fine turkey dinner may be had at either table for 25 cents. The poor and aged will be served free. The public is invited. Shorter's congregation will affiliate in the union Thanksgiving services at Campbell chapel and it is hoped that every one who can possibly do so will join the other congregations in giving thanks to our heavenly Father for the blessings of the past year. On the evening of Thanksgiving, "Our Busy Ladies' Aid," a beautiful and entertaining musical drama, will be staged at Shorter, Mrs. Mae E. byrd, manager. It will be just what you will need after eating a big turkey dinner. Don't get fooled and stay away. General admission, 15 cents.
Our Thanksgiving rally will be held on the fifth Sunday when every member and friend is urged to assist in raising $500 to enable our trustees to meet a note which falls due then. No shirkers wanted.

Tucker, the children will produce a comedy drama, "The Man and the Maid." A clever little playlet will also be given in the evening by Leonard Caldwell, Thelia Tucker, Claude Davis and Rosa Brown. This promises to be a novel entertainment. Come out and spend a pleasant Thanksgiving with us.
The union Thanksgiving services of all our churches in Denver will be held at Campbell Thanksgiving morning at 11 o'clock. The annual sermon will be preached by Rev. D. Smith of Scott's M. E. church.
Rev. Howard, who had been with us for a week in a series of revival meetings, was suddenly called home to the bedside of his young son who was seriously ill. He arrived in Kansas City Sunday at noon. The meetings will be continued at a future date.

Death of Susie Cobb-Brown.
(Continued from page 1)
To those who are left behind, a kind and faithful husband and devoted brother, the hope of a grand reunion at some future time, will be an inspirational incentive; for those just beyond—a step in the dark—loyal and devoted hearts will await their coming in the realms where peace and happiness abideth forever and where death is no more.
Goodbye, dear wife; goodbye dear friend. Never, never will you be called to share the woes and cares of this newspaper; never, never will your welcome greet us, but the deep and everlasting impression of your presence indeliby stamped upon us, will linger on, and on until we, too shall receive the summons to join you, we hope in the blissful land of perpetual joy. "Where the wicked cease troubling and the weary are at rest." Sleep on, beloved, sleep on. "Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal."
In Agricultural Education Noted.
Besides the amount of appropriations for agricultural schools provided for in the Morrill act of 1862, congress in 1907 passed an act carrying an additional appropriation of $25,000 yearly to each state and territory having an agricultural college. The act requires that the states receiving the benefit of this appropriation provide ground and buildings and keep up the repairs of the institutions.
The money appropriated by the federal government may be used to pay teachers of mathematics, science, English, agriculture, the various mechanic arts, commercial subjects and domestic science and arts, but no part of the appropriation may be used to keep up repairs. The spirit of the act is to require the states to do their part in the interest of agricultural education.
It has done more than any other agency to awaken a general interest in agricultural education among the colored people of the United States. According to the report of the commissioner of education for 1912, these schools received from the federal government $245.518 and from their states $270.650, a total of $516.168. They had a total enrollment of 8,090.

Interference, the Southern President, and impartial government say to the United States: "Leave the Negro best how to deal with him, both in the South."

Men to be men and not mice in the discussion of the long standing wrongs done the Negro and their claim of human rights, and for men to oftimes lose their bearing, shows more or less deep human concern in their subject. History records thousands of men doing the same thing under the same circumstances, and if W. M. Trotter did show deep interest and temper in the discussion, I dare say he did what other MEN and not mice would do. For the president of the United States to favor caste government at the expense of the Negro was astounding to Mr. Trotter.
M. H.
To all outside interference, the Southern President and the Southern officials of this free and impartial government say to the Christian and equality loving people of the United States: "Leave the Negro to us. We understand him and know best how to deal with him, both for his own good and peace and welfare of the South."
With far more justification we reply on behalf of the Negro. Leave the Southern white people to us. We have lived among them for two and a half centuries; we both know and understand them. We have nursed their children, built their homes, and for more than 200 years we have fed and clothed them. When they took up arms to destroy the Union in order to bind us in perpetual chains, we did not fire their cities with the torch, nor rise in violence against them, but protected their property, their helpless women and children. Leave them to us, President Wilson. We have imbibed not the ideals of master and servant, but of democracy; we are Americans, filled with the spirit of the 20th century, forgiving, forgetting, and true altruism. Leave them to us, Mr. Wilson, and through our influence in the capitol of the nation we will make the free public schools universal throughout the South and open alike to all, without regard to race or creed or color. We will make free speech as safe in Mississippi as it is in Massachusetts; as free in Carolina as it is in Colorado; we will abolish lynching and usher in a reign of law of courts and juries instead of the shotgun, the faggot and the mob. We say and emphasize that we will abolish peonage, elevate and protect labor and make capital secure. Mr. Christian gentleman, leave them to us, and we pledge that our chivalry shall know no color line, but our womanhood shall be protected and defended and our citizens, regardless of race or color, shall be permitted to participate in the government of the people, for the people and by the people. Leave them to us, Mr. American Citizen, and we will make them know their place and keep it, under the federal constitution. We will remove the last vestige of Jim Crow-ism under the forms of law and make the places of public necessity, convenience, recreation and amusement, as well as governmental activity, open alike to all without respect to race or color. We will successfully make intelligence, character and worth, instead of race and color, the sole test of recognition and preferment for all. This will be the complete solving of the complex-compound human problem of the Negro that has so long divided the North and the South, and the Negro himself will unite them in the only bonds of union that can stand the test of time—fraternity, Christianity and justice.
Providence, R. I.—The Board of directors of the Providence Y. M. C. A. have issued a statement which sets at rest all reports that Negroes would be discriminated against as applicants for membership in that institution. The fact that several persons objected to the admission of Negroes aroused the colored organizations of the city to make a protest and this was followed by the director's action. The statement issued by the Y. M. C. A. officials is as follows:

GREAT PROGRESS IN CALIFORNIA
Plenty of Business In the Little Town of Watts.
CHANGE FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
Thrify Community Near Los Angeles Largely Inhabited by Southern Folk Makes Remarkable Showing Along Many Lines of Industry—Many Own Their Own Homes.
Los Angeles.—The town of Watts, in the vicinity of Los Angeles, has an energetic, industrious colored population numbering something like 600. The majority of these people came from the south, purchasing their homes by degrees after having secured employment in Los Angeles. Their preference for a suburban home with its possibility of truck farming, poultry and cattle raising was the underlying motive for their choice of Watts as a place of residence. Consequently there are a goodly number of colored farmers who own thriving ranches that net them a considerable income, says Eloise Bibb Thompson in the Los Angeles Tribune.
There are also janitors, carpenters, brickmasons, furniture dealers, grocery dealers and one real estate agent. The latter, R. C. Patton, is said to be doing a thriving business, having offices in Watts, Los Angeles and in Chicago. There is also a foundry owned by John Davis, who molds hinges for bungalow doors. Mr. Davis is also an inventor, having recently got out a patent on plumbing rings.
The largest colored dealer in new and secondhand furniture, James Seals, is found on Main street, opposite the city hall. Mr. Seals came to California about ten years ago with little or no capital. His energy and persistence are shown in the fact that he now owns the building in which his store is located and has increased his stock from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars and built up his business to such an extent that hired assistance is needed.
The local banks are also patronized by the colored people of Watts, most of whom own their own homes, and a few have valuable holdings in Los Angeles in localities where real estate is rapidly growing in value. These people support two churches and are erecting a third, which promises to do credit to their prosperous appearance. The Watts Independent league is composed of thirty-five colored men, who organized for the purpose of looking after the municipal, political and social interests of their neighbors. These men, all of whom are property owners, contribute largely to local charities, giving to both individuals and institutions.
The colored youth of Watts are found in the Compton high school, where they remain for the most part until they have completed the required course of study.
Likewise the people of Boyle Heights are worthy of consideration. Boyle Heights, a part of Los Angeles, was laid out by George Hansen almost a century after the founding of the city of Los Angeles by the Spanards. It was named after an Irishman, Andrew Boyle, who owned a great portion of that locality, which he planted to grapes, building up in time a successful wine business. Twenty years after the formation of Boyle Heights the colored people began to take up residence there, very few at first, gradually increasing as time passed until the northeast section was almost wholly inhabited by them, as it is at present.
Many took advantage on their arrival of the low cost of land and purchased much valuable property, as, for instance, Moses Stapler, one of the oldest settlers, who twenty-three years ago bought considerable property on Bay street, which he sold recently to great advantage. He also bought the city block extending from Savannah to Evergreen street, which he still owns. The houses on this land bring him in a comfortable revenue.
J. W. Coleman, another colored resident of Boyle Heights, also has secured much property, the total valuation of which is estimated at $20,000. This property consists of five houses on New Jersey street, one house on Michigan avenue and a sixteen room flat in process of construction on Savannah street. Clarence B. Coleman, the son of J. W. Coleman, has an auto and wagon delivery business known as the Boyle Helights express, established in 1880, which makes a specialty of moving, packing, shipping and storing. A three ton auto truck is owned and operated by young Coleman.
Other colored residents of Royle Heights are engaged as follows: One postal clerk in local postoffice, one postal clerk on the Southern Pacific railroad for the past eight years, six janitors in the hall of records, one restaurant keeper, one confectioner, one cigarmaker, three policemen, two expressmen, one plumber, one woman notary public and public stenographer, two rubbish contractors, two painters, four carpenters and three brickmasons, one of whom, W H Prioteau, was foreman on the brick work of the new federal building. A goodly number of the colored residents of Royle Heights not only own their own homes, but are the owners as well of other property, several owning grocery stores.
ST. MARK'S NEW EDIFICE
Large and Influential M. E. Church
Erects Modern Parish House.
By CLEVELAND G. ALLEN.
New York.—One of the most notable
achievements undertaken by the colo-
red people in this city which reflect
creditably upon the genius, ability and
civic pride of the race is the compi-
tion of a beautiful new parish house.
valued at $75,000, of St. Mark's Method
ist Episcopal church, on West Fifty-
third street, of which the Rev. Dr.
William H. Brooks has been the pastor
for eighteen years.
The contractor was R. E. Simons, formerly of Charleston, S. C., and the only member of the race in the city doing contracting on a large scale. Mr. Simons from the start had the work well in hand and completed the structure on schedule time and without a delay of a single day. He employed only colored men, and the new parish house is the only building of its kind to be erected entirely by members of the race in this city. The architects, Tandy & Foster, were also colored and two of the most prominent men of the race engaged in this

line of endeavor. With the opening of this parish building the historic church of Methodism starts out on a new era of its church life.
The event has been a notable occasion in the civic life of the race in this city, which has been celebrated in a special dedicatory service in connection with the forty-third anniversary of the church, which was recently celebrated for three weeks.
The new building was dedicated by Bishop Luther B. Wilson of this city, and other prominent clergymen and laymen participating in the exercises were the Rev. Dr. William A. Creditt of Philadelphia, Dr. A. Clayton Powell of this city, Dr. William M. Moss of Brooklyn, Mr. George P. Eckman, editor of the Christian Advocate; Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois, M. H. Sumter, E. K. Jones and Mrs. M. C. Lawton.
HELPING THE UNEMPLOYED.
How the Armstrong Association Is Meeting Situation in Philadelphia.
Philadelphia. - The efforts of the Armstrong association in this city to supply the demand for colored girls in the various lines of domestic and industrial work are having a good effect upon the community. The association recently started an employment bureau in order to centralize the work and give better service to applicants seeking employment at any time. Some of those for whom the association is finding positions have been connected with the industrial school at Hampton, while others are untrained girls of Philadelphia. One of the most interesting points about the work is that a woman of our race has been appointed whose special duty it is to investigate working conditions and opportunities for women of her race.
She sees the girls who apply for work at the headquarters of the bureau and talks to each one, giving her some idea of what good service means and some definite instruction which will fit her to fill the place found for her in a satisfactory way.
The association states its aims as follows: "Our purpose is not only to get the girls work and oblige patrons, but to place the right class of domestic workers with the right class of employers and to raise the idea of service. We aim to encourage tolerance and to create personal interest among those in charge of employees."
CASE WITHOUT PRECEDENT.
W. R. Stewart Moves Admission of E. J. Anderson to Highest Court.
Quite a stir seems to have been created in legal circles at Washington, Oct. 29 and 30, when Attorney William R. Stewart of Youngstown, O. moved the admission to practice in the United States supreme court Lawyer Emil Anderson, a fellow practicioper of the same town.
Attorney Stewart was counsel for James Weish of Youngstown, who had a suit against the Erie railroad. Or course it was the first instance of its kind in the history of the court but being surprised at the ability of Counsel or Stewart was nothing new. The case can multiply such men of legal thought and standing many times.
Commenting on this unusual occurrence, the New York Evening Post says:
"Until recent years there have been very few attorneys admitted to practice in the highest court. Each year, however, records an increasing number of colored attorneys of sufficient cathetr to have business before the supreme court. For a colored attorney to stand sponsor, however, for a Caucasian is without precedent."

continue to do so if only thescalp

having the desired effect in helping

SANTA CLAUS
OH. Santa, can't you come again? Just see the dolly that you gave! She's gone and slipped out of my hands-- Her head is all that I can save!
My daddy says that you can't come Until another year has passed.
But years are very, very long-- Just think how long a year can last!
I loved my dolly--oh, so much! My heart most broke when down she fell.
But. Santa--let me whisper it-- Another doll might do as well.
CHRISTMAS WAITS AT
PUBLIC CHRISTMAS TREE
Popular Old English Custom Growing In Favor In America.
Christmas "waits," those bands of singers familiar in England for several centuries, have been less numerous in recent years, but the custom, with certain variations, is gaining ground in the United States. The municipal Christmas trees which will mark the great holiday in many towns and cities this year will have the singing of Christmas carols and anthems as a part of the exercises in connection with the trees.
The town of Burlington, N. J., has kept up the custom of the waits since colonial days. Each Christmas eve a band of vocalists, recruited from the choir of St. Mary's Episcopal church, start out an hour or so before midnight and sing carols and anthems in various sections of the city. They visit the homes of the rector, the curate and members of the vestry and sing before their doors. As these homes are situated in widely separated sections of the city, the singing is heard by practically all of the residents. Citizens of the town who may have retired early are usually aroused by the singing, and windows in upper floors are thrown open. As the singers move away after finishing the carols the listeners yell greetings to their neighbors, close their windows and return to their cozy beds.
In many of the houses before which the singers render concerts the occupants are expecting them, and they are invited in to partake of refreshments They can linger but a little time, for they must cover their arranged route before the chiming of the church bells ushers in a new Christmas.
GIFT LADEN PINATAS.
Unique Holiday Frolic Which Delight Children of Mexico.
About ten days before Christmas in the City of Mexico the puestos in the Calle de San Diego begin to grow festive with evergreens, flowers, bright berries and other greens brought in from the mountains by the palsanos to delight the eye and tempt the purses of the promenaders. In the booths of the neighboring Calle de San Juan are displayed fruits, nuts and candies, and still others offer angels, shepherds, sheep, mules, oxen and other objects suggestive of the Saviour's birth.
Probably the greatest attraction for the Mexican children are the pinatas. Peddlers may be seen sauntering along the streets carrying long poles which are strung with varicolored pinatas of every description, draped with tinsel. These represent flowers, fruits, animals and even men and women, and each contains a jar filled with goodies. They range in price from 25 centavos to several dollars, according to their degree of elaborateness. The pinata is suspended from the ceiling or hung in the courtyard. All the family gather around it. A child is blindfolded, turned around several times, then given a stick and told to find and break the pinata. If he falls after three trials to locate it he surrenders to the next in turn, and so on until a lucky blow shatters the pinata and the contents fall, to be scrambled for.
The real spirit of Christmas is giving, not getting
As you would that men do unto you, do we even so to them
The world is full of the people who talk so much of what they can do and what they are going to do that they never have time to begin Christmas tide is a splendid opportunity for action.

before laying down our pen
we cannot refrain from ment-
ioning the reports through the
associated press, in which it is
claimed that Wm. Monroe
Trotter, Editor of the Boston
Guardian, as chairman of a
delegation of Colored citizens
and erstwhile champion of
Wilson had insulted the Pres-
ident, while presenting a pro-
test of Governmental segre-
gation of the races in the vari-
ous departments in Washing-
ton, D. C. as carried on by the
present Democratic National
administration. It is reported
that the President said in the
course of argument that seg-
gregation of the race in the
various departments was not
a political matter, and refused
to look at it from that view
point. If this is correct we
will remind him that neither
Negro slavery, but its final re-
sult were very much political
between the Democratic and
Republicah parties. More

THE BLAZING YULE LOG.
It Holds Precedence Over the Christ
mas Tree In England.
‘The Christmas tree was rarely seen
in England untll made popular by the
German busband of Queen Victoria,
and, while it {s untversal there at the
present time. it is the Yule log and the
mistletoe that hold the center of at
traction. Long before England became
a Christian country the Yule log was
burned in honor of a pagan deity at
the winter solstice, and the infectious
spirit of cheer and good will which
prevailed at that time survived when
Christianity spread abroad.
The festivities in England begin with
the lighting of the Yule log on Christ-
mas eve. In many parts of the coun-
try the whole family. including serv
ants, gather about the hearth and
“beguile the long evening with rural
gumes. legendary Jokes and oft told
Christmas tales” One of the oldest
customs observed in England ts the
singing of Christmas carols from hous:

ARGUES CASE IN
SUPREME COURT
Attorney William iarrison {s
Against Separate Car Law.
BIG EVENT IN WASHINGTON,

Washington.—The jimcrow car case
brought up from the United States cir-
cuit court of Oklahoma was recently
argued in the United States supreme
court by Attorney William Harrison of
Oklahoma City, Okla. ‘The purpose of
Lawyer Harrisou in bringing the mat
ter before the hizhest court is to test
the constitntiouality of the separate
car law for interstate passengers. The
case was filed in the federal court by
Lawyer Harrison Feb. 15, 1908.
‘The case fs unique in that it involves
the rights of the colored people
throughout the country. It is one
which few lawyers have been willing
to handle and has been from its besin
ning handled exclusively by lawyers of
our race.
In the arguinent Attorney Harrison
sought to interpret the mind of con
gress as evidenced by the enabling act
approved by congress June 16, 1906,
and insisted that unless the legislature
of the state of Oklahoma could violate
every provision of the enabling act.

cepted and adopted frrevocably as a
condition precedent to admission into

sume being forbidden by the languaze
of the act ftself This argument was
clinched when Mr. Harrison pointed
out that separate schools were pro
vided for in the enabling act and no
otber distinction or separation.
Arguing that the act of the Okla
homa legislature seeks to and does
regulate interstate transportation, the
lawyer said the act must stand or fal
as a whole, not being separable, and.
being clear, positive and unambiguous,
could not be construed away and bad
to be taken as expressing the mind of
the legislature. He exploded the theory
of police regulation and showed that.
so far as the health, safety, comfort
ete. of the citizens were concerned.
the police regulation argument set
out by defendants wis a mere sub
terfuge, and in this connection it war
forcibly argued that the Mexican, the
Italian, the Indian, the Turk, the
Greek and every other race on the
face of the earth bad been legislated
Into white men and educated, cultured
and refined citizens by the act of the
legislature complained of.
Lawyer Harrison reached his climax
by invoking the interpretation and con
struction of the federal constitution
and specifically the fourteenth amend
ment as applied to the act of the legis
lature of Oklahoma complained of
Perhaps the most finely drawn differ
entiation was shown by the able jurist
when it came to comparing the case at
bar with other cases adjudicated. He
clearly showed that his case was dif
ferent and new in the following par
Uculars—to wit, The supreme court of
the state of Obiahoma had not con-
strued the law as had been done in
cases coming up from Loulsiana, Mis:
sissipp!, Kentucky, ete. The case at
bar had evaded and avoided the state
courts, knowing what its fate would
be once In the sald courts, and finally
that the word “distinction” did not
occur In the organic act of the states
mentioned, but was purposely written
in the enabling act of Oklahoma.

intimately associated with Mr. Har-
rison from the very beginning of this

PLANNING FOR NATIONAL —
| EXPOSITION IN VIRGINIA.
President Wilson Asked to Speak on
Opening Day, July 4, 1915.
TOraptO show the progress of the race
since 1865 have been fully mapped out.
The exposition js to be held under the
auspices of the Negro Exposition esso-
ciation, of which the Hon. Giles B.
Jackson is president. It is the wish of
the sociciy to have President Wilson
deiiver an address on the opening day
of the exposition, With this purpose
in view « delegation of prominent men
from Various states called on President
Wilson at the White House the Orst
week in November and extended the
invitation In person.
Speaking for the delegation, Presi-
dent Giles B. Jackson in part said:
“Mr. President, on behalf of the
Negro Historical and Industrial asso-
clation. 1 corporation, under whose
auspices the exposition and celebration
of the (iftieth anniversary of the eman.
eipatioy and achievement of the Negro
will be held in Richmond in 1915, the
committee now in your presence came
to ask sou to accept an invitation to
visit the exposition some tne during,
its existence, preferring if possible to
have you visit it on the openng day.
tentatively fixed at July 4. But in or-
Génie line yourl presénce the day/will
be ebon ced to suit your convenience.
“On belialf of the colored people of
the country, as far as this committee
has ay rity to speak, we feel author
ized to speak for them all on this occa-
sion. ‘Hey will esteem it the greatest
favor {hit could pe bestowed upon a
strugs ing people to have your pres:
ence the opening of this exposition.
It would indeed stimulate and enkourg|

hear f)/l from bis lips words of encour.
digemenr to press forward in the future
devel juent of the race.
oT) feel that since your inaugura-
tion yo have not had the opportunity
hor o-oision to speak to a race whose
positi, in the nation is so different
from others. and ‘this will be the op-
perme Cue for you to say a word of
enednisement to the Negro race,
which constitutes 12 per cent of the
nation over which you so justly and
satists rorily preside. A large per
cent of this race resides in the south.
wher: their relations are different
from ‘lose who reside in other sce
tions of the country. and who are solv
ing heir own problems with the as
Sistanc¢ of their white neighbors who
reside with them in the southland.
-*Spsuld you accept this invitation
will show you the product of the
‘, whieh will be astounding. We
L hare upon exhibition evidence of
thrift and progress of the race
ithin fifty years, of which you and
ye nation you represent will be proud
You will have an opportunity to view
the exhibits of the Nezroes of this coun-
y. for which we believe you would
smmend them us having done what
no other race could have done similar-
y Sitmated and within that short pert
od of time.”
lt was pointed out to the president
| that the colored people of Virginia
sloné pay taxes on $34,000,000 worth
of property and own school and church
property to the value of $20,000,000,
which is free from taxation. The ac-
cumulation in fifty years has been
$54,000,000, or more than $1,000,000 a
year.
At the close of the appeal the pres!
dent made a brief address, in which
be told of his interest in the exposi-
tion and bis desire to be present. He
explained that he would be in the
west for several months, and the un-
-certaintles of politics made It impos:
sible for him to give a detinite answer.
Me sald in part:
“Your invitation is a most attractive
one, but I can make no definite prom:
| tse so far ahead. If nothing turns up
to prevent 1 certainly shall be there
| 1 hope to be with you on the opening
day or some other time, for I am sin
-cerely Interested in the object of the
exposition, and it is my earnest wish
to attend it.”
‘The committee which waited upon
the president was composed of colored
men from many walks of life, but who
are true representatives of the best of
the race. Among those present were:
‘Theodore W. Jones, Chicago, former
member of Cook county commission:
Ernest Lyon, former minister to Liberia
and now representative of that coun
