of Mr. Dixon, namely, "The Clansman" and "The Birth of a Nation," which he is now holding before the world in order that he and his may dodge the responsibility for the condition of these people.
"It may be true that the Ethiopian cannot change his skin, nor the leopard his spots, but the fact remains visible to all fair-minded people that the emancipated slaves, from the day of their freedom until now, have striven to aud succeeded in changing their condition morally intellectually, financially, religiously and in every other way. I regret exceedingly and acnowledge that some Negroes fall into and commit crimes, but neither before nor since their emancipation I know of no crime they have committed that has not been committed by the white race, who boast of being their superiors.

G. A. R. OF ILLINOIS DE- NOUNCES BIRTH OF NATION
George H. Thomas Post, G. A. R., Appropriately Denounces it. Chicago, Ill.-George H. Thomas Post, this city, appointed a committee to investigate the play "The Birth of a Nation." The report, which gives well-deserved censure, was unanimously adopted and sent to department headquarters. It reads: "The play is a remarkable work of art, but is meant to reproduce in substance the book of Thomas Dixon, entitled, 'The Clansman,' whose chief purpose is to glorify the oause of secession, create and intensify hatred against the Negro and make it appear that the infamous Ku-Klux-Klan was an organization of chivalrous white men, to defend the people.
"In the moving picture show there is one scene that represents a company of united States soldiers in uniform commanded by a white officer in possession of a town, shooting and burning and acting like fiends. History does not record a single instance of the kind. It is a base slander on the men who wore the blue. The Negroes represented in the picture are lowdown criminals, and totally debased. To people ignorant of the facts they make the impression that Colored people are a depraved and criminal race governed only by brutal lusts. It has no suggestion as to the great advance made by the Negroes since emancipation, in religion, education, in property and usefulness as citizens.
"The main point of the play seems to be to show that as to slavery and secession the south was altogether right, and that in the civil war and reconstruction the men who defended the Union were wholly wrong. The whole influence of the exhibition is to excite sectional feeling and bitterness and its representa-

REV. J.C. OWENS FIGHTS PHOTO PLAY
FORMER DENVER PASTOR WRITES STRONG LETTER AGAINST THE BITRH OF A NATION
EDITOR MONITOR:
I was in Nebraska City the other day and chanced to see a copy of your valuable paper. The Monitor, and I read of the manly fight you are making to prevent the exhibition of the obnoxious photo play, "The Birth of a Nation."
"I most heartily endorse the course the Negroes are taking, wherever and whenever they can, to stop this insult to our race. I wish to thank the city authorities for sustaining your objections to its showing in the Auditorium. and I also thank the city authorities elsewhere for showing their disapproval.
"The people whom Mr. Dixon now seeks to belittle and humiliate have been in the school of his forefathers for more than two hundred and fifty years, and in many instances fared worse than some of the dumb brutes owned by the same master, and we were not allowed to own or believe that we were human beings with souls.
"Mr. Dixon should remember that there are those of us yet living who, like himself, could write a play of the slave-owners in the dark days of slavery in this country, that would make young Americans and the civilized world sit up, take notice and blush.
"But we would not be allowed to put those horrible pictures on canvas, and God forbid that even Mr. Dixon himself should ever see what some of these folks he is now holding up before the world saw in his people in those days. I think he would call his play off, hang his head in shame and retire from view.
"Some years ago, some of the refilled and influential white ladies, especially mothers, succeeded in having the play, "Uncle Tom's Cabln," stopped in some of the southern states, because they did not want their children to see and believe that their fathers were ever as cruel as that play represented them to be.
"Now, Mr. Editor, we hope that the time is not far distant when another noble set of brave-hearted mothers, sisters and brothers will rise up in the southland and stop Mr. Dixon from exposing further and any longer the the kind of education the southern people gave their Negro slaves for more than two hundred and fifty years. They had no other teachers than their masters and overseers, and they alone are responsible for the pet schemes
DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, DEC. 11, 1915
Birth of Nation Must Not Show In Denver.
Negroes find House on Fire, Smell Smoke and Prepare to Put Out Fire. All Denver Aroused. Keep Busy until Play is Barred. Kansas Kicked out Play. Will Colorado Commercialize Horrors? Is the Governor Silent? All Eyes on Him.
Denver is seething with interest in the success or failure of the peaceable lawabiding citizens of color either suppressing or partially obliterating the Birth of Nation, more properly called "The Curse of the Nation." Into Denver's Melting Pot of fairness, peace and prosperity will be cast prejudices, racial and sectional, the lost cause and Klu Klux Klan together with an abortion of historical facts and it will largely depend upon the commissioner's and City Attorney what the mouldings will cast. Whether a united, peaceful undisturbed Denver or a divided uncertain city filled with treachery, suspicion, doubt and misgivings. Kansas, our next door neighbor has decided the issue by kicking that vicious film from her borders. Ohio has done the same thing why cannot Colorado through our Republican fearless Governor do the same? Out of 18,000 characters used in Dixon's play, there are only two good Negroes and they are ignorant fools. he Curse of a Nation is a cruel slander of the strong against the weak and helpless race. It is a cowardly attack upon a people who are not strong enough to hit back. The Denver Negroes were are quietly, patiently and progressively building up Denver in morals, industry, in civic pride and materialism now. Now will our commissioners let an outside carpet boy, money shark come into our community and by commercializing "horrors," arousing the lowest passions of race feelings and again waving the bloody shirt of rebellion, reap cold dollars and come from the unsuspecting Denver Public and thus destroy the Negroes peace of mind, progress and ambitions to become a better citizen? Already school children in our public school have asked to see the play, because they want to learn about the things not printed in books.
Note the following advertisement in Wednesday's Express—"Speaking of Mae Marsh as Flora, the Express said, "She plays the pitiful white girl who is pursued by a brutal Negro thru the woods and who eventually is forced to leap to certain death from a high cliff to escape the awful tate bearing down upon her. Mae Marsh does her best work in the "Curse of the Nation." Her hunted expression when she looks back and sees the passionate culprit in hot pursuit will not soon be forgotten by those who see the picture." It this positive and direct statement is not a criminal admission of a scene which tends not only to arouse race hatred but permanently fix it upon your minds so you cannot forget it, we never want any more conclusive proof. The Curse of the Nation is a trayesty on history, a breeder of racial antipathy magnifying the lawlessness of one race against that of the other. It is peculiarly dangerous because of its insidious poison is hidden in scenic beauty. This production has two objects in view, the one to keep alive racial prejudice, the other to keep before the young white man of the South conditions claimed to have been brought about by the Northern white man and thus assure continued ill will between sections. The old South has never forgotten, nor forgiven, the boys who wore the Blue, and Dixon and and his ilk do not intend the new South to do so either.
We understand that this photo company is preparing to go into Court, they having employed a lawyer. Now we must fight harder than ever before. Dorot weaken. The curse of the Nation must not show in Denver. Fight to the last ditch and there fall in the ditch facing and fighting the enemy. Keep busy until this vicious film is run out of Denver. Call the most prominent business men, lawyers, Doctors etc. Get their endorsement, keep busy. And as a last extremity if everything fails, let us organize a street parade to go up and down 15th, 16th, 17th streets to let every body know while that hellist play is exhibiting that we are protesting. Keep on the job, don't give up, stir up any body and everybody.
tions are utterly false to history.
"We recommend the adoption of the following resolution:
"The George H. Thomas Post, No. 5, Department of Illinois. G. A. R., protests against the exhibition called "The Birth of a Nation."
a society of patriotic chivalrous men.
"Third—Its whole influence is to excite and intensify hatred of the Negro race and intensify hatred of the Negro race and perpetuate sectional bitterness. Siguèd—Duncan
"First—Because it contains slanderous representations as to the soldiers who fought to preserve the Union and caricatures the history of the war.
"Second—It represents the infamous Ku-Klux-Klan as

MAYOR SHARPLEY AND COL. MORGAN THRILL THE AUDIENCE. DR. BAILEY MAKES STRONG SPEECH. GREATEST MEETING IN HISTORY OF DENVER
True to the advice given by the Star, the people of Denver in one of the greatest demonstrations of protest against theatre injustice in the history of Denver, packed Shorter Chapel, Tuesday night. Committees reported on the progress of the various phases of the work and the audience showed their keen interest by the manner in which each report was received.

BIRTH OF A NATION KICKED OUT OF KANSAS
WHY NOT IN DENVER
"The Birth of a Nation," which is showing in several opera houses over the country and whose author is a southerner and hater of the colored race, has been suppressed and will not be allowed to exhibit in Kansas. There are parts in the play that are intended to widen the breach between the races of this country and the deep-thinking, sober-minded people of both races are trying to prevent such shows as "The Clansman," "Birth of a Nation," and all such.—Topeka Plaindealer

Clark, the solo by Mrs. Pearl Rose, duet by Mrs. Pearl Rose and Miss Mabel Cole, and the paper by Mrs. Stone, were all faultlessly rendered. Rev. L. B.

It is reported that fully 1,200 people, representing all classes and shades of our people, as well as representatives of the other race, met at Shorter and without a discordant note, registered a manly and determined protect against the play. Mayor Sharpley was present and pledged the audience that under no circumstances would the play be allowed until it had been censured by a committee composed of white and colored citizens and the objectionable features of the play eliminated. All honor to the promoters of the meeting and special praise for the hundreds who rallied to the call of these officers.

We pray that a oneness will seize all of the churches and much good accomplished in the name of our Lord and Christ.
There ought to be a rousing meeting on the first day of January, 1916, to the glory and honor of Christ Jesus. What we need most is to feel the spirit of Jesus in our hearts. It isn't enough to call upon his name, but be endowed with the holy spirit. The spirit of Christ is wealth, health and prosperity. Christ is a spirit, and those that worship him must worship him in spirit and truth. Uzziah's pride brought him low. So will worldly pride cast us down, yes, where mercy cannot reach us. It is good to be a loyal church member, but better to be an humble Christian. Humble yourself in the sight of the Lord; he will lift us up.

ADVERTISE IN THE STAR AND LOOK PROSPEROUS.
Even though you may not be prosperous, adopt as far as possible the appearance of prosperity. It is sound capital and will bring good interest in the long run. Shabby-looking people, you may have noticed, always appear apologetic and can easily be turned down when they are most in need of a helping hand. Keep a brace front. Dame Fortune likes to throw her magic cloak about the shoulders of the man or woman who looks capable of making the best of it.
ONLY THE MINT CAN MAKE MONEY WITHOUT ADVERTISING. THEREFORE ADVERTISE IN THE STAR, WHICH ALWAYS BRINGS RESULTS.

JACK JOHNSON ONE OF THE GREATEST MEN EVER LIVED. (By B. F. Chambers.)
There are a class of Negroes in America who are always willing and ready to grasp an opportunity of seeing the low side of life rather than the high elevating side and are nothing more than parasites to those members of their race who strive to make a high and intelligent mark in life. Especially is this true in the case of Jack Johnson, who is recognized by the leading people of Europe, such as the kings, queens, dukes and lords, as one of the smartest and greatest men who ever lived.
But Johnson, like all other great Negroes of our race who have passed away, will only be given credit for his great skill and wonderful genius by his or the Negro race after he is dead. I wish to call your attention to an article direct from the English government, which goes to prove that Johnson is even greater today than ever before during his fight. Although he elevated the scientific prize-fighting to the highest stage of science, this profession is now inferior to his present and feature work in life. The article is as follows: Jack Johnson Gets Nine Recruits—His
Wife Featured In Oyster Dance.
Glasgow, Nov. 29.—Four thousand people blocked traffic in Queen street for a half hour today while Jack Johnson made a recruiting speech. He drove his big motor car to the Royal exchange, removed his big white hat, showed his plentiful display of gold teeth, told how he had given two of his own motor cars to the government and urged every strong man to enlist.
He was introduced by Corporal Baker of the Scotch Rifles, clad in khaki, and the result of his speech was nine recruits.
British actors are frequently making recruiting speeches from the base of the Nelson column in Trafalgar Square, London, but an American prize-fighter securing nine recruits for Kitchener's army in a Glasgow openair meeting is a novelty not altogether destroyed in interest by the fact that Johnson is appearing in a local music hall this week in a "revue." Incidentally his wife is placarded as "America's most beautiful and versatile artist, the originator of America's greatest craze, the oyster dance."
The second article is a clipping from a Nevada paper which was published the next day after the great Reno victory, which I had the pleasure of seeing and which also goes to show the great flow of racial blood that flows through his veins. This ought to be an example for every member of the colored race. The article is as follows, by Otto Floto:
Reno, Nev.—It was a well-known fact that up to and within a couple of days before the Johnson-Jeffries fight there was something "rotten in Denmark." All sorts of rumors were in the air and it was generally conceded that "Johnson was to lay down." Mind you, Jeffries at no time knew this, nor was he a party to any deal of this kind. Certain parties close to him took it upon themselves to act without his sanction. The very best evidence that Jeff knew nothing of any arrangements of this kind was when on the morning of the fight he refused to consider Johnson's offer to "split the money." When the proposition was taken to Jeffries he absolutely refused to listen to it and it
tunately refused to teach took the hardest kind of work on the part of his friends to force him to agree to a 60 and 40 per cent. agreement. I ran across a can who was closely connected with Johnson and other interests at Reno and he told me the following story the other morning:
"Do you know," he said, "that I went to Johnson the Saturday before the fight and offered him $150,000 to allow Jeffries to win and he turned me down. That's what he did, and all this talk that $10,000 or $25,000 would have made him lose is rot. I figured that if Jeffries won the pictures would be worth a million more, and I went out to get Jack's consent and then would have sold my option to the picture people. But Jack wouldn't have it. I told him that glory was a fine thing, but it didn't buy beefsteaks or pork chops. I told him about that old saying that has been handed down for generations about "a bird in the hand being worth two in the bush." I called his attention to what an unpopular champion he would be and even tried to scare him by saying the white people would never let him win, but would kill him at the ringside. He listened attentively and then turned to me and said:
"There are 30,000,000 niggers in this land that will go broke if I lose. Of course, a nigger hasn't got much use for money anyhow, and it might make little difference. Just the same those black people will always point back to one man of their race they couldn't reach with money and that's worth something. With I win tomorrow I will be king of all those niggers." My informant then said: "So I am to understand that you are going to do your best on Monday?" He scratched his head and replied, "Yes." My informant then told his friends and that's where all the Johnson money came from just before the fight. I am pledged not to use his name, but if you are acquainted with Johnson, just ask him who sat on the long fence the other side of the barn at his training quarters in Reno, about the time I mention."

FIFTH WARD CIVIC LEAGUE
Progressive Pittsburgh Organization Elects Officers at November Meeting. With the annual election of officers in November the Fifth Ward Civileague, Pittsburgh, begins another year of active service for racial betterment generally and local community uplift. During its brief existence the league has accomplished some good results. It was one of the chief factors in the recent fight to bar a certain photo play which reflected discredit upon the race from being shown in Pittsburgh.
The newly elected officers of the league are the following named well known citizens: James H. Hamilton, president; Robert H. Brogwell, vice president; Ward L. Calloway, financial secretary; James W. Wright, recording secretary; Robert H. Logan, corresponding secretary; John P. Davis, treasurer. The executive committee of nine is composed of Charles Jones, Jr., Robert Forrest, W. H. Parker, Hilam Chinn, Robert Pearl, John Gray, William Reinhart, Harry Lewis and William Perkins.

New Movement For Race Segregation.
There has recently been some talk of appointing capable physicians of race as health officers in the larger cities to administer to the needs of the colored population exclusively. The idea does not meet the general approval of the race, and we believe that few reputable physicians among the colored people would accept an appointment with segregation as its chief object. The fact that the colored race does not want any special recognition of the kind mentioned ought to be well known to public officials at this stage of our progress and citizenship. In all matters of public service, conveyance and comfort the colored people simply want that which is due them in common with all the other races which make up our country's citizenship.
Raising Funds For Mercy Hospital. The movement known as the Lincoln memorial campaign, recently started in Philadelphia, is meeting with much encouragement from the public. The object of the campaign is to raise $150,000 for improvements at Mercy hospital. Philadelphia. Dr. Algernon B. Jackson is directing the campaign.

that he has met during his career of twenty-two years in the work. The men were so grateful to Dr. Moorland for the interest which he manifested in their behalf they began a few days before the campaign closed to collect funds with which to purchase for him a leaving cup, the same being presented on the evening of Nov. 22.
The campaign came to a glorious close on Monday evening, Nov. 22. Reports from the teams were received after supper was served. The general summary was made by Secretary A. D. Hampton, and when Chairman E. H. Wilson, who is also chairman of the committee of management of the branch, announced that $19,324.50 had been raised during the ten days there was wild cheering among the men. Table covers and boards and napkins were used for banners and drums and horns as the company rose as one man and marched up and down the hall shouting and singing. The high school boys started the yelling with: "How much you going to raise? Fifteen thousand dollars. Who is going to give it? The people. Who are the people? Carlton! Carlton! Carlton!"
The Carlton avenue branch was organized May 15, 1902. In the meeting room of the central branch. It has done a remarkable work with the poor equipment it has had in a small building. The late Rev. A. J. Henry, minister of the Nazarene Congregational church, was the prime mover in bringing about its formation. The present secretary, Mr. R. M. Meroney, is a native of Austin, Tex. He received his early education at Tillotson college and taught public school in Texas for five years. He is a graduate of Yale. 1900 Mr. Meroney before coming to Brooklyn, four years ago, taught at Samuel Houston college two years and subsequently served as army Young Men's Christian association secretary with the Ninth United States cavalry on the borders of Mexico.
BIG SUM FOR EDUCATION.
Beecher Memorial Association
Research Institute for Hydraulics Cells
Brooklyn Aids Talladega College. The Beecher Memorial association of Plymouth church, Brooklyn, raised $50,000 in November for the endowment fund of the Talladega (Ala.) college. This action was taken by the association on account of the great interest which Henry Ward Beecher, famous minister of Plymouth church, in his lifetime manifested in the freedom from slavery and the subsequent education of the colored people. The campaign for funds lasted for ten days, and there were many generous responses made by the public to the appeal of the campaign workers. Previous to the beginning of the campaign a public meeting was held at Plymouth church, at which the work and needs of Talladega college were explained. The institution was founded forty eight years ago by the American Missionary association for the education and training of the youth of our race. The school farm comprises 750 acres, and among the various buildings are a hospital and nurses' training school, a Carnegie library and an industrial building for the boys and girls. The enrollment is about 750, and there are forty teachers.
Talladega has graduated several hundred young men and women and has sent forth thousands of others trained for the practical duties of life. Its students are a force throughout the state. Many have become teachers and have helped to raise the standard of the rural schools.
One of the graduates of Talladega studied at Columbia college several years ago, where he did such excellent graduate work that he had a number of tempting offers to head departments in the larger schools of the race. He refused them all and turned back to Alabama, where, twenty miles from any railroad station, he founded a school that became a model in its community service. This graduate died after having literally given his life to his work.
Others have taken small rural public schools and because of their educational advantages and the spirit of service that Tallageda gave them have made their little one room schoolhouses models of industry and neatness. Some graduates have gone into the ministry and taken up parishes north and south. One is the cashier of a bank in Birmingham. Another is a farmer, holding real estate valued at $27,000. Still another, a woman, has helped 270 people to purchase homes.

Carlton Y. M. C. A. Raises $19,324.50 In Ton Days.
Senior International Secretary Dr. Jesse E. Moorland Conducts Record Breaking Campaign For Funds—Hearty Response From the Public—Secretary Meroney's Active Career.
Brooklyn. — The Carlton avenue branch of the Brooklyn Young Men's Christian association has met the proposition offered to insure the branch of a new $100,000 building. Through various sources, including the $25,000 offer of Mr. Julius Rosenwald of Chicago, the sum of $85,000 was placed at the disposal of the Carlton avenue branch upon the condition that the association raise from among the colored citizens of Brooklyn $15,000. In order to accomplish this task it was decided to have Dr. Jesse E. Moorland, senior international secretary, conduct a city wide financial campaign for ten days beginning on Thursday, Nov. 11.
Previous to the beginning of the campaign Dr. Moorland, with the assistance of Mr. R. M. Meroney, secretary of the branch, selected the following named men as an executive committee: E. H. Wilson, chairman; A. D. Hampton, secretary; James F. Adair, Dr. W. L. Bulkley, N. B. Dodson, F. H. Gillbert, R. I. Jackson, Dr. Roland R. Johnson, J. H. Smith, W. F. Trotman, George E. Wibecan, Horace G. Wilson and M. P. Saunders.
The next step was fifteen teams of nine men each with a captain. The workers on each team were chosen by
.
R. W. MERONEY.
the captains. Full instructions were given the captains and team workers before any one was authorized to solicit a single subscription or to receive a cent of money in the name of the association from any source.
Secretary Meroney had the necessary literature prepared for the teams according to Dr. Moorland's ideas and a campaign prospectus showing association buildings erected at a cost of $100,000 and over in various large cities. The front cover of the pamphlet carried an outline drawing of the proposed new Carlton avenue building, and there were cuts of Mr. Julius Rosenwald, the high school boys' Spanish class, taught at the branch by Mr. Meroney; the Bible class, taught by Mr. W. S. Richardson, and the boy scouts, troop 55, under command of Scoutmaster James R. Spurgeon.
The local daily and weekly papers carried splendid accounts of the proposed work. Thus the public mind was prepared for the onslaught of over a hundred men when Moorland gave the word "Go!" The captains of the teams were the following named young men; J. T. Brown, D. J. Bruce, A. L Comither, E. L. Faulcon, N. D. Johnson, Jr.; A. J. Loring, H. V. Lucas, J. E. Patterson, J. R. Spurgeon, W. H Taylor, W. K. Taylor, Ellas Tilghman, C. H. Turner and L. P. Williams.
The executive committee rented the first floor of the building at 704 Fulton street as headquarters, with a restaurant attached, where supper was served each evening to the teams, reports received and instructions given. A banner was offered as a prize to the team bringing in the largest amount in cash and subscriptions each night. There was much friendly rivalry for the coveted prize, which bore the inscription, "We Are It." Several of the teams secured the banner at different times, but the one headed by Ellas Tlighman held it for three successive nights and finally won it on the last night of the campaign.
Our people did themselves proud in the generous response they made to the young men's appeal. Sums ranging from $1 to $1,000 were received. There were many gifts of $25, some $50, $75 and $100. The largest gift by a single individual was $1,000, from Mr. Frank H. Gilbert. Dr. Moorland, who has directed many building campaigns, is loud in his praise of the people of Brooklyn and says of the young men who worked on the teams that they were among the best in every way

What Leading Asiatics Say About Oneness of Races.
AUSTRALIA'S EXCLUSION ACT
Well Known Newspaper Correspondent Receives Interesting Volume From E. W. Cole of Melbourne In Which the Opinions of Forty Eminent Japanese Are Given on Race Question.
By JOHN E. BRUCE "GRIT."
I have recently received from my friend, E. W. Cole, Esq., proprietor of the Coles Book Arcade, Melbourne, Australia, the largest and best equipped book store in Australia, several pamphlets written by Mr. Cole, bound in one volume. One of them, "Humanity," is the story of the human race at a place and proves its oneness, the other "What Forty Eminent Japanese Say of the 'White Australia Act'."
The white Australia act is very like the California anti-immigration laws and is aimed specifically at Japanese and other Asiatic races. I quote some of the opinions on this legislation of a few of these eminent Japanese. The mayor of Tokyo, asked whether the Japanese were annoyed at being excluded from Australia by this act, answered most emphatically with one word. "Naturally."
The acting governor of Hokkaido, Mr. Otsuka, said: "Our first father was one, so we are all brothers, and it is bad to hate each other or make distinction on account of the color of the skin, which is caused by climate. This will gradually become apparent to all mankind, for truth must win." The commander of the Japanese standing squadron, Admiral Hidaka: "God made all mankind, and they are everywhere similar in mind and habits. Their color differs according to the land in which they live, so it is wrong to draw distinctions on account of color." The governor general of Formosa, Baron Kodama, says:
"The white people do not seem to understand the colored people. If the Americans don't like the Filipinos they should give the Philippines back to them, and the Dutch should give Java back to the Javanese." "I asked him," says Mr. Cole, "would you like to have the Philippines annexed to your government of Formosa?" and he gives knowing kind of smile, as if that idea had occurred to him before.
Some of the Japanese have an idea that they would like to annex the whole of the Indian archipelago to their country and to form an immense island empire with its hundred millions of colored and kindred inhabitants.
Mr. Inouye, vice president Tokyo Chamber of Commerce:
"White or yellow, the difference of color in the human race does not imply wisdom or lack of wisdom, is a proverb in Japan. • • • I always keep in mind the Chinese proverb, 'He is a man, and so am I.'"
Baron Isiguro, member of the house of peers:
"We should not make distinctions on account of the color of skin or of the difference of nationality. Those fellows who are excluding colored persons from their land are mistaken and wrong. I hope God be with you and wake them up as soon as possible from that blind policy called 'White Australia.'"
Hon. K. Takaki, member house of peers:
"I studied medicine for many years in England and carefully examined human bodies, but I came to the conclusion that there is no material difference between man and man. If persons were brought up in the same conditions and surroundings they would be the same in every way. Therefore it is wrong to draw distinctions on account of color and shut out people from that vast continent of Australia."
These are only a few of the forty opinions, but they show by their broadness of view on this race question that the Japanese are superior to the race which seeks to shut them out of Australia and California on account of color. They show also that they believe in the doctrine of the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. The white man professes it, but he is not honest. He does not prove his faith by works or acts. He is a cowardly hypocrite and is so narrow between the eyes on this question that it would be impossible to insert a piece of writing paper turned edgewise between them. The Japanese attitude toward the darker races is fully set forth in this series of interviews. Its men of light and leading have expressed with directness and clarity Japanese contempt for that relic of barbarism and child of ignorance, race prejudice.
Wins Success After Hard Struggle. Gilbert Critenden, who owns a beautiful home and a splendid farm not far from Ozark. Ala., is reputed to be one of the wealthiest farmers in the state. Besides his regular farm products, he raised hogs and cattle in large numbers. He is highly respected by both races in the community and is a familiar figure at the annual meetings of the National Negro Business League. Gilbert Critenden has won success by hard struggles.
MOTON FAVORED FOR
TUSKEGEE PRINCIPAL.
Hampton Institute Official Picked as Washington's Successor.
At an informal meeting of the northern members of the board of trustees of the Tuskegee (Ala.) institute, held in New York on Monday, Nov. 22, it was decided to withhold the name of a successor to the late Dr. Booker T. Washington as head of the Tuskegee institute until the full board meets in December. It was announced, however, that the northern members of the board are a unit for Major Robert R. Moton, commandant of cadets at the Hampton (Va.) institute.
While due consideration is given to the qualifications of Messrs. Emmett J. Scott and Warren Logan, secretary and treasurer of Tuskegee respectively, it was found that sentiment at the Tuskegee institute also favors the selection of Major Moton to succeed Dr. Washington. For many years Major Moton has traveled with Dr. Washington on educational tours of various southern and northern states. He filled many of the noted educator's important speaking engagements and is thoroughly familiar with the aims and ideas which Dr. Washington held with respect to the future development of the Tuskegee school. Major Moton's selection would not only be welcomed by the faculty and students, but by the whole race.
The Booker T. Washington memorial fund will be another subject taken up at the December meeting of the board. There is no doubt of favorable action on the project. One of the tasks of Dr. Washington was the raising of $200,000 a year, and this duty will devolve upon his successor. The purpose of the contemplated memorial is to honor the name of Booker T. Washington, and those who have the interests of Tuskegee at heart believe that can be done in no better way than in the creation of a great fund for the advancement of the work to which Dr. Washington devoted his life.
To the person who obtains the highest number of Cash Subscribers over 75. To the next highest person a valuable Hollow SILVER TABLE SET OF 26 PIECES
The demand for such an enduring monument to Dr. Washington comes from all over the nation, from white and black alike. This is evidenced by the letters the trustees have received since Dr. Washington died.
Because of this general desire to honor the educator's memory a nation wide appeal for contributions is to be made, and every section will be given an opportunity to share in this mark of respect to Dr. Washington's memory.
The Prizes are on display for your inspection at Kortz Jewelry Co., 816 Fifteenth St., near Stout, go in and ask to see them, inspect them and see if the Prizes are worth while.
SERVICE FOR WASHINGTON
Hampton Institute Official Refers to Dead Educator as Prophet.
Hampton, Va.--The Rev. Laurence Fenninger, associate chaplain of Hampton institute, conducted the memorial service which was held in Memorial church at 11 o'clock on Wednesday morning, Nov. 17, while the funeral service for Dr. Booker T. Washington was being conducted at Tuskegee institute, in Alabama.

Rev. Mr. Fenninger said: "In this place, where he was so well known, and to you who knew him so well, it would not be fitting for me to speak of Dr. Washington. I did not know him intimately, but I will always cherish the memory of the few times I met him. He impressed me chiefly as a prophet, as a man with all the rare blessings of the prophet. He had eyes that saw, ears that heard and a heart that understood. And it was just these blessings that he endeavored to share with his fellow men. He strove to give sight to blind eyes, to unstop deaf ears, to bind up and fill with hope hearts that were broken.
One Dollar a Year

"As I think of him my mind goes back to that great schoolmaster and leader of English thought, Thomas Arnold, the old headmaster of Rugby. And I know of no better or truer tribute that we could offer to Dr. Washington than to say of him as was said of Thomas Arnold;

"If, in the paths of the world, Stones might have wounded thy feet, Toll or dejection have tried Thy spirit, of that we saw Nothing. To us thou wast still Charisma and firm! Therefore to then it was given Many to save with myself And at the end of thy day, O faithful shepherd, to come, Bringing thy sheep in thy hand."
He also read the lines of Paul Lawrence Dunbar on Dr. Booker T. Washington. The choir sang a number of the plantation melodies, including "I Want to Be Ready," "In Bright ManSIONs Above," "Let the Heaven Light Shine on Me" and "O Freedom!"
Roman Catholic Church Aids Our Race. The good work which the Roman Catholic church is doing among the colored people of that faith in some sections of the country is causing Protestant denominations which are engaged in a similar work to look well to their laurels. Attention has been especially called to the large and increasing number of colored people in New Orleans who are of the Roman Catholic persecution.
