NEGRO BEGINS NEW ART Far and away, as we have said before, the most auspicious stage event in the rise of the race is the production of the three race plays by the colored players at the Garrick Theatre, New York City. Ira Aldridge and other dramatists have triumphed as individuals thruout Europe and America as great tragediens, but great as was their triumphs they interpreted only once again the life of another race. Bert Williams and other comedians have triumphed on the comedy stage thruout Europe and America. But never before have capable colored actors been enabled to seriously portray to the world the life of their own race upon the metropolitan stage. As great as is this service to the colored people and to the world at large, so great is the praise and credit due Mrs. Emily Hapgood, Ridgely Torrence, and all the rest of that splendid company, white and colored, responsible for the production. There has been no truer estimate of the service they have rendered than that made by Dr. Frank Crane in the New York Globe of Tuesday, which in part is as follows: "What is the future for the American Negro? Is he always going to be an interior race? Is he never going to emerge from the shadow of his bondage? "Perhaps the problem is being solved by'a power not of ourselves,' by the deep purpose of nature and her slow process of evolution. "The word problem is not good. There are no social problems, such as a labor race or religious problem: such things are conditions to be lived thru, instead of puzzles to be worked out. "And perhaps the Negro wants most of all to be let alone. He does not want to be studied as a case, nor patronized, nor helped. All he wants is a square deal, equal opportunity, and his just deserts. "An experiment is being tried in New York, consisting of a company of Negro actors who attempt a serious dramatical performance of plays written especially for them and supposed to be peculiarly adapted to their genius. "If a highly cultured and entirely unprejudiced foreigner were to look for the most interesting theatre in the city, he would find it here. "For here are real human beings trying to express them selves and not to depict borrowed emotions. It is the best kind of art. "Art consists in the forthputting of one's self. It means doing, with that freedom and naturalness that come only from genius and long practice the thing I can do better than The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 COURT AWARDS KERNAHAN $100 FOR DISCRIMINATION New York City,—Lionel Kernahan, a colored man, has just won a victory against discrimination from Lawrence Rayan, a restaurant keeper. Kernahan was refused service in the Rayan restaurant located at Eighih avenue and 117th street. He sued the proprietor, and in the 7th Dist. Municipal Court, Part I, before Judge Davis, was awarded $100 damages. Wilford H. Smith was lawyer for Kernahan. Ann Arbor, Mich.—Alfred F. Ross, senior law student, University of Michigan, is drilling daily on Ferry field with the officers' training corps of the law school battalion. Ross has had previous military training in Kansas and Colorodo. He is a Defender representative. anybody else. "These Negroes play Negro plays. They are revealing the soul of a people. They are not propagandizing. They are not perking themselves up to be like white folks. They do not demand, argue or protest. "They are real artists. No artist has any other aim than to show his soul by his work. There are certain qualities of spirit, certain shades of passion and of conscience, which the Negro can portray better than any other race. There is a pathos, a tenderness, an edge of sympathy, a beauty of loyalty, and a genuineness of simplicity wherein the African excels. "I think the Negro is by nature the race best suited to Christianity. "The Negro has none of that offensive and hard pride that stains the Caucasian He is the exact opposite of the Prussian. "In the great democracy of art, where the prejudices of race or speech disappear, and where 'each shall paint the thing as he sees it for the God of things as they are,' the Negro is welcome. "I was strangely moved by this performance. I felt as if I were witnessing by far the most significant effort at self-expression I had seen for a long time anywhere. "It was something new, something remarkable, something altogether fine and real. "A Negro, like anybody else, can be nothing so interesting, so great, so artistic, as himself." Do you get the connection? Its easy. If the "colored players on Broadway" had done nothing other than evoke this criticism they would have done the colored people of this country an enduring service. We urge YOU to go, to get your friends to go, if you love your race and if you believe in the future of the colored race. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MAY 5, 1917 RACE QUESTION WORRIES CHICAGO SCHOOL BOARD Let Every Parent Vote. You are Vitally Interested. That the color line cannot be ignored in the city schools was admitted by the school management committee of the Chicago board of education, and holding the opinion that some action should be taken the committee referred the matter to the superintendent of schools, according to a press report from the "Windy City." The question was raised with regard to the Wendell Philips High School which is said to be two-thirds colored. A committee from the Williard school asked that a junior high school be established to prevent the children from going to the Wendell Philips school, alleging that "There are so many saloons and pool rooms around the Philips High School and such a general immoral condition that it is impossible for us to send our children there." On being told that if such conditions prevailed it was a case to be reported to the morals bureau and have things cleaned up, one member of the delegation is quoted as saying "If that neighborhood is unsuitable for the children of the Willard school it is unsuitable for the children of any other school. The real reason is that the Philips school has a large number of Negroes. So why mince matters and refer to conditions as immoral when we mean there are colored students there?" Then the first speaker said: "There is no denying the fact that the Philips school is two thirds colored and that white child ren should not be compelled to sit with colored children. READ CAREFULLY, ACT WISELY. There are 24 millions of dollars together with the interest on 10 million bond issue at stake in this school fight, as little as you think. Two propositions are being advocated and agitated. First, Elect Hallet—Taylor—Schenck, (all wealthy men who deal in bonds) and reinstate Cole, the present Superintendent and Second, Depose Messrs Hilliard Guyer and Jones or render them powerless. We print a portion of a report made by a committee headed by James H. Causey, a bond dealer, to the South Denver Improvement Association. "That at this time and in this crisis in school affairs it would be disastrous to divide our support with other candidates no matter how worthy but we should stand firmly back of these candidates so as to work harmoniously and effectively with the other prominent civic organizations which have already pledged them their support. The adage that "In unity there is strength" is especially applicable in this instance. The committee was uncertain as to whether its duties contemplated the consideration of the proposed bond issue, provided the amount needed shall first be carefully and definitely determined and secondly that it shall also be made known where and how the money shall be expended" Notice, the committee wanting a bond issue. This committee favors Mr. Cole This Committee also that doubtless knew that Mr. Cole had exceeded the amount allowed in the budget by the Board. He wanted more rather full and complete authority to adjust matters and allay excitement. Mr. Cole received that power. Now, from what we can gather, it looks to us that Mr. Cole proceeded to build for himself a personal political machine. He spent $93,048.65 exceeding the budget allowance for December 1916, January, February and March 1917. Is that economy? Mr. Negro, it would seem to an ordinary thinking mind that just now in the time for extra economy in the management of finances. The war taxes will soon be felt; the further increase in the high cost of living will reduce the size of our weekly or monthly wage; the City bonds for the purchase of the water company's plant—$14,000,000.00, will add its burden of taxes against our homes and property: and with $10,000,000.00 added to all this our taxes will be doubled and trebled and doubled again. chosen for candidates for election on your School Board at this time? Who pays these taxes? You know how the man with cash and securities escapes, and the people with real property have to pay. And the small home owner pays in larger ratio. Did you ever think this increase of your School Board, the issuance of these bonds and this School election, might be closely connected with the ultimate settlement of your Water Question? We favor buying the plant. Mr. Negro, here are some questions you should carefully weigh and consider before voting for School Directors May 7th. Do it now, it will be too late after you have elected them. Do You want a ten million dollar School Bond issue? Do you want to pay five hundred thousand dollars interest each year enough money to put up 5 modern school houses? Do you know that the Supreme Court will in the near future tell you to either buy the Water Company,s plant at from ten to fourteen million dollars, or give them a new franchise for 20 years? Do you want School Directors who are absolutely pledged to this rank extravagance? Do you know who the campaign managers for the Hallet-Schenck-Taylor ticket are? No? Well, let us introduce them to you. Mr. James N. Wright and Mr. Henry Swan, of James N. Wright and Co. 301 First National Bank, Business, Municipal and corporation Bonds. If you are laboring under a ten million bond, issue when this ultimatum is handed down, what will you do? Will not your hands be tied as to buying their plant? Do you wish big interests-money power and capitalists to control and exploit the finances of your School District-the money what belongs to your children? Do you wish to throw away, in interest 10 magnificent School buildings each year these bonds are out standing? Did you ever give it any thought, why it was necessary to increase your Board of Directors at this time by the addition of two new members? Do you want to give them a new 20 year franchise so they can bulldoze you to their hearts content, as in the past? Ex-Mayor Henry V Johnson and Harry W. Risely, and Geo. E. Osborne of 1041 Bannock street candidates for School Directors are opposed to a School Bond issue. These men are right. Vote for them. This is the Star's advice to you. Did you ever stop to think you had less trouble in your School affairs when you had only three directors? Do you understand why "three able business men not in terested in politics" But intensely interested in the accumulation of private fortunes, should offer themselves as a sacrifice upon the alter of public service, without pay? Do you understand why two members of the famous School survey Committee—Mr. Hallett and Mr. Taylor were Maine claiborian & Wes oral history School FIVE CENTS A COPY. SEGREGATION LAW FOR CHICAGO. The Real Estate Board of Chicago is to have the Negro population of that city segregated into restricted sections by legislative action, declares the Chicago Tribune. At a recent meeting of the realty dealers a committee is said to have been appointed to frame a bill for the Legislature and an ordinance for the city council to this end. Violent opposition on the part of the Negroes is expected. The reason for the movement, it is stated, is the mitgratory flood of Southern Negro laborers who are pouring into Chicago at the average rate of 10,000 a month. Two prominent realty men are quoted as saying that this influx will do more than $250,000,000 damage to Chicago property. These men claim that this influx of Negro population is doing greater damage than the great Chicago fire of 1871. Using various artifices the Negro real estate dealers are charged with "ruining" white residential districts by obtaining leaseholds on one building in each block and then renting the property to Negro tenants. The real estate men claim that this action causes an immediate depreciation in adjoining property values and and that one by one the white tenants move out. The bills which the present session of the Illinois Legislature will be asked to enact are said to be similar to those already in force in Kentucky, Missouri and Maryland, where Negroes are prohibited from maintaining residences out side of prescribed restricted sections of all cities of the first class.

OPEN LETTER 10 ALL GRADUATES Hampton Bogins Campaign For National Defense, HAS FAITH IN OUR PEOPLE Principal of Virginia's Leading Agri- cultural Institution Aska Hampto- nians Everywhere to Teach Loyalty In Country’s Present Crisie—Courage Shown In Notable Message. Hampton, Va.—Dr. Hollis B. Frissell, principal of the Hampton institute, in this town, has dictated and sent out under the direction of William An- thony Aery the following communica- tion to all Hampfon graduates, calling ‘on them to mobilize all their forces in this national crisis. Dr. Frisell sas: “We are now at war with the Ger- man government because the German government first made war on us, sink- ing our ships without warning and in defiance of all laws of humanity leay- ing women and children and other noncombatants to perish of exposure in open boats at sea. “Germany has plotted against the peace and safety of our land, endeavor- f<. a 8 = o mee ron if bos eee ao ow td ki ba re nn >< ee a BB (|) es ing to stir up Mexico against us, and now the newspapers charge that she has sent agents through the south for the purpose of inciting the colored people to disloyalty. It may be that in some districts a few in their bitterness may have listened to evil counsclors. “It is for you who have seen the lght to do all in your power to inspire your people with patriotism and to arouse that deep sense of loyalty to our ‘country which has always been one of the noblest characteristics of the Ne- gro people. : “as Dr. Washington and Dr. Moton have proved by thelr lives of quiet, un- pretentious service, the colored man 1s going to secure recognition not by de- manding bis rights, but by deserving them. Bitterness, fear, hatred, narrow Jealousies and .scifish interests can have no place in our life at such a time as this when our government is calling for the best help that each man, woman and child can give. We must each put aside all thought of seif and give this help generously wherever there is opportunity, whether it Is for a white neighbor or a black neighbor, whether it is through some great sacri- fice for the good of our country or by a cup of cold water to some one in want. “Let us show our colors and hang up the flag fn the place of honor over the doors of our dwellings Let us teach the children to love and respect that flag. The eountry needs all that you can do; it needs a larger food supply. If you have any land, no matter how small a piece, raise and can vegetables, Increase your crops and teach others how to do the same. “If you hear threats of danger or sce signs of dissatisfaction see that the matter is brought to the attention of the proper authorities and stamped out at once. Do not allow yourself to be disturbed by a few mischief makers. The great mass of your countrymen, north and south, believe in you and trust your loyalty absolutely. “We are all Americans together and must stand shoulder to shoulder in this crisis. Not only ts it our duty and priv- llege to help our own country, but let us remember those war stricken coun- tries across the sea—Engiand, France, Belgium and the others which have been #0 bravely fighting and suffering these many months for the cause of right we have now championed. Let ts try to help them also In every way in our power, by word and deed and prayer.” Ae ey weneiuces Speaking Tour.

BE FIGHTERS, NOT SLACKERS All Expenses to Be Paid—Probably Monthly Pay as Well— Fourteen Camps Established All Over the Coun- try—Movement Started by Spingarn Officially Assured of Success. The movement to establish a mill- tary training camp in which to train colored men for army officers, start- ed by Dr. J. E. Spingarn of New York, has now been officially Assured of suc- cess, but under totally different condi- tions from those originally outlined. ‘The secretary of war has completely changed the arrangements for all mili- tary training camps. Until war was declared these camps were for one month only and were yirtually open to any one with very slight qualifica- tions. The war department has now established fourteen officers’ training camps all over the country, to last not one but three months and to result in -@ commission for any one who goes ‘through the full training, ‘At these camps all expenses will be paid, including transportation, food, training and uniform, and it ts not unlikely that congress will pass legis- lation adding monthly pay as well. ‘The camps will start on May 8 and last until Aug. 8, and no one can at- tend for less than three months. More- over, no one will be able to obtain a commission in the federal army unless be bas gone through one of these camps Over 350 colored men have already applied for admission to the one month camp originally proposed, and these men must now decide whether they wish to go into the serious business of being officers in earnest and devote thelr whole summer, to the task. If they attend the camp for three months they will be commissioned as second Heutenauts or possibly higher, recelv- ing a minimum salary of $1,700 a year. If they do not go to the camp they will probably be conscripted as privates Or Will be deprited of all opportunity of going to the war either as privates Or officers. ‘The war department has definitely stated that it intends to give colored men an opportunity to get this train. ing. The department has not, however, depiged whether it will arrange a sep arate camp for colored officers or whether it will admit Negroes to one or more of the regular camps. In the last few days Dr, Spingarn and the | National Association For the Advance- ment of Colored People have been bom- | barding the war department with ap. -peals to admit the colored men to the regular camps, but whichever method is finally adopted colored men would make a serious mistake if they did not ‘take advantage of any opportunity to serve ag commissioned officers in the army during this great war. This first series of camps will be historic, and attendance at them will be a proud heritage to pass down to one’s chil- dren‘ children. AS 1s the actual details are set- a hea government blanks will be sent to all those who have sent their names to Dr. Splgarn. They will then be required to go before an examining officer to test their physical and edu- cational qualifications. Upon passing this test they will be admitted to the camp, aud after receiving their three months’ training they will be the first colored officers to be commissioned in the great war. = ‘ S Points Cafe All Kinds of Chop Suey and Noodles Hot Chili Servea SHORT ORDERS!'AT,| ALL HOURS 2721 Welton St. Phone Champa 4016 Terms Cash aE Lowest Prices R.

"Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our duty as we understand it."—Abraham Lincoln. Amendment No. 1 Means Greater Efficiency and Higher Standard, Colored Policemen and Firemen Benefit. Denver, Colo., May 2, 1917. To The Denver Star: Dear Friends: We take the liberty of addressing you concerning the petition for an amendment to the Charter of the City and County of Denver in the interest of our FIREMEN and POLICEMEN and earnestly solicit your sincere an dactive support of this amendment. We have been forced to bring this issue before you, because as servants of the people they are the only ones possessing the power to raise our salary to a standard in keeping with the present high cost of living. The standard of an American city is no higher than that of its protection and safety as carried out by its police and fire departments. A man's ethical standards are no higher than his home surroundings, therefore you are respectfully asked to help us keep our home surroundings up to a standard that will be commensurate with the standard of our beautiful city. YOU CAN DO THIS BY VOTING for our petition on May 15th—it is first one on the ballot. Wages are being increased by all of the corporations and cities of the country—they realize that by so doing that they are increasing the efficiency of their employees. Let us not fall behind them in this or any other respect. WE, YOUR COLORED FIREMEN AND POLICEMEN sincerely trust you will take the time to interest yourselves in this matter and vote for our amendment on MAY 15TH—we need your assistance. Very respectfully, SPECIAL PUBLICITY COMMITTEE, THE DENVER FIRE AND POLICE ASSOCIATION. The Star feels deeply grateful to receive this communication from such an important and worthy body representing such practicable and worthy objects and we pledge to them our heartiest support for the success of that amendment. We are deeply interested and have been for some time in the affairs of our own policemen and firemen. We have thought often of the vacancy left by our lamented like Glmore. Now, when it comes to helping our own with others get an increased pay in order to maintain the usual standard of efficiency with representative home surroundings, especially during this period when high cost of living is touching every home and when enemies within are liable at any time to burn and set fires to every and everything. The Star thinks that it is the least of its duty to urge others to help our own by helping themselfs. Now, Negroes of Denver., vote for Amendment No. 1. Put a pin in that. A vote for No. 1 means a vote for every Negro in Denver. Churches, lodges, homes and business places are all alike affected. Therefore, talk voting for No. 1 to white and black. The Cleveland Gazette says that Rosevelt said recently that the Kaiser is "no white man," and that comment was unnecessary, but we merely want to add that the Negroes refuse to have him claused as even belonging to the utterment relation in the thirst desecration of their group. He might be a highway with an angelic smile shall.

Mr. Stockholder, we know the Standard Oil Co. and the Midwest Oil & Refining Co. are trying to get hold of Wyoming oil land and we also know that the Denver colony of Negroes already hold enough lots in which at least 15 wells can be sunk thereon. So hold on to your stock. Don't sell, and make your payments in order to get the real results later on. We are told that England has specially asked for Colored troops.

After a long, painful and protracted illness, Mrs. Helen Jones, daughter of Mrs. Moses Thrashley of 3138 Downing Ave., went away into eternity. Mrs. Jones, a Miss Thrashley before marriage, was a popular church-going and well-liked young lady. Her friends were always glad to see her and greet her. Her punctual habits while at the bakery of John Thompson's Grocery Store, always bespoke for her the highest degree of praise for her industry, thrift and perseverance. Her tender care for her family, in fact, this attribute runs thru the whole family of girls, this burning desire to help someone else was ever manifest in her life. Nothing ever has shocked Denver as this sad death. She leaves a devoted, true and blessed mother, together with loyal and loving sisters to mourn her loss, also her little toddling baby, so "cute and intelligent." The Denver Star truly voices the sentiment of the community in expressing its profound depths of sympathy and sorrow for the family during its passing hour of severe test and trial. Mrs. Helen Jones, a young matron of high ideals, quiet and unassuming, loved and was esteemed by her friends and associates. ```markdown ``` CARD OF THANKS. Mrs. W. R. Chapman wishes to thank all who purchased tickets or in any way contributed to make the benefit for Mrs. Helen Thrashley Jones a success. It was thought best to render the program on Thursday evening as previously arranged, despite the fact that the benefit was given, passed away and was buried the same afternoon. The proceeds, which will amount to about $77.00, will be handed over to the relatives of the deceased. RESOLUTION OF CONDOLENCE Cripple Creek, Colo., April 25th, 1917. Resolutions of Condolence on the death of Mrs. Mary Scott, who departed this life April 21st at 7 a. m.:"She hath done what she could." Where it falls within the Providence to take from us one of the old supporting timbers whose duties, life thoughts and heartbeats that so often intermingled with ours, that the least defection or the stoppage of the usual activities is generally felt by everyone in the community. To all the old timers in Cripple Creek, and especially to everyone associated in church work, Mrs. Mary Scott, who for years was a faithful, devout and earnest Christian worker. Also an Eastern Star member. WHEREAS, her Sterling character was made up of a life of little deeds of kindness, sympathy and sacrifice, for her ideals, real or imaginary, as she saw them in her Saviour. Whereas, she believed in comforting the sick, relieving the distressed and strengthening the weak. Whatever might have been her faults, or her good intentions, no one denied that she always tried to do what she sincerely could in trying to carry out the Master's will. Sometimes she failed, sometimes she succeeded, but she tried. Mrs. Mary Scott formerly belonged to the Baptist Church of this city, but on July 2, 1916, united her membership with the A. M. E. Church with her husband, under the present pastor's administration. Because of her wide experience, her long service in church work, she soon won the title of "Mother" Scott. She died at the age of 71 years. Resolved, that we, the members of the Official Board and Church, through the undersigned committee, do hereby extend to the bereaved family the deep and sincere sympathy we feel for them in their hour of grief and sorrow. We realize that in the falling to sleep of your dear companion, and sister, you have lost your best earthly friend, but do not weep, for your lost is but Heaven's gain; but remember, there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother, which is Christ the Lord. We recommend "Him" to you. Wife, sister, has gone, but not forgotten. For the poet has so beautifully said: Why should our tears, in sorrow flow When God recalls His own. And bids them leave a world of woe. For an immortal crown. Gladly to earth their eyes they close To open them in Heaven. Their toils are past, their work is done And they are fully blest. They fought the fight, the victory won And entered into rest. Then let our sorrows cease to flow, God has recalled His own; But let our hearts, in every woe Still say: "Thy will be done." Committee: Mrs. David Z. Hill, Mrs. M. E. Kimberling, Mrs. Dora Carter, Mr. Den, Payne, Rev. S. B. F. Lowe, Chairman. Mr. Carl Wilson of North Denver has been sick in bed for the past ten days.

(Signed) Father and Duchess. With the United States flags costing five for 5 cents at the Five. and Ten Cent stores. The Star can see no reason why every Negro home has not a flag displayed in their home. A time of distress has come to the flag. Now black boys your testing is here; Great rumblings and carnage by land and by sea, Betoken the War-God is here. The flag has not always given to you Your struggling life's sorst need, Protection from hatred, a chance to be men, It deserted, by word and by deed. But your slave fathers fought for the flag and they died, Gave life-blood right out of the heart. No thought of self, or those by love tied. Too patriotic from the flag to depart. Now God in His own time gives you your chance, Their bruised lives emulate. No waverers now, nor cowards be Your manhood perpetuate. —Leona Troutman Barbee WORMS HANDICAP YOUR CHILD Worms drain the strength and vitality of children, making them dull and listless.

Young at 1763 Marion street, was the scene of a lavish banquet Thursday evening, the occasion being the celebration of the marriage last Monday of host and hostess. The house was beautifully decorated with quantities of vari-colored flowers and the banquet was enlivened by music and singing. The hostess was the recipient of many beautiful and costly gifts, prominent among which were a valuable set of cut glass, other cut glass pieces, a generous cash donation made by Mrs. Young's many white friends at the Denver Dry Goods Company and other presents both useful and ornamental. Cream chicken on toast, coffee, ice cream and cake and other delicacies were tastefully served. More than 75 guests, both white and colored, were received, feasted and entertained during the course of the evening, and all, without exception, voted the banquet a most sumptuous and altogether delightful affair. Both parties are well known in Denver and enjoy the pleasantries of a host of friends. It is not too much to say that the occasion was the swellest the editor ever witnessed. Words are inadequate to express our appreciation of this remarkable affair and social proclivity. Postmaster Joe J. Houston of Chapelton, Colo., a Dearfield annex, was a welcome visitor of The Star recently. The three pastors who gave such an excellent program at Shorter church Thursday night, namely, Mesdames S. A. Starks, Mae Byrd and Mary Rosa Wade, made a distinct success, socially, musically and financially. The Sox social given by Mesdames Green and Norris also was a great success, but the finances had not come in at the evening's entertainment, yet many tickets were still out. DOING FINE IN TEXAS. Mrs. E. Williams, one of Denver's more foremost women of business, is in Dallas, Texas, where she will remain two weeks, fastly disposing of her goods and hair and toilet articles.

SURPRISED EVERYBODY- MITCHELL-OVER MARRIAGE When Mr. Robert and Mrs. Mattie Over went to the parsonage of Shorter church Tuesday afternoon and quietly became man and wife to the greatest surprise of their many friends, not even the closest friend of either party was cognizant of the affair. It did not take long for the news to get over town after the papers were out announcing the permits, and Tuesday evening the phone was kept busy by friends congratulating the happy couple. Both parties are very popular and members of Shorter church, where they have a host of friends who wish them every possible happiness. The Star extends its congratulations. W. B.

Suring the eight years of his pas- torate the congregation of the Zion Baptist Church, from year to year, has sought in ‘numerous ways toex- Press both to Rev. Over and :to| the public its grateful apprecia- tion for his unusually fruitful servi- ces. But the many tokens of munifi- ‘cent generosity by this most loyal people culminated last. Sunday in a magnificent gift which was as over- whelming to the pastor as gracious and benevolent of the flock. At the close of the morning service Brother HU. Baker, president of the Men’s Bible Class, and chairman of a special committee, composed of the church of- cials and several other prominent members, stepped to the rostrum and in a brief but forciful address expres- sed the appreciation of the member- ship of Zion for the work of its pas- tor, and the esteem and confidence in which he is held by the whole com: munity, concluded by the presenta- Hon, on behalf of the entire congrega- tion, of a beautiful, six-cylinder, 30- horse-power, Franklin automobile and invited the’ audience to inspect the machine at the front door of the churgh, It was the most wonderfully beautiful expression of a faithful peo- ple's generous regard as could possi- bly have been manifested in any re- lationship; and say that the pastor's heart was deeply touched is putting it most~mildly, when respondind in a feeling address of thanks, he expres- Sed the conviction and the hope that such a splendid and tangible evidence of the deep and sincere heart loyalty of she many friends to himself and to the principles for which he has la- bored, will awaken and cement a deeper, richer relationship between pastor and people, and open larger op- portunities for the community's ser- vice, to the interests of which the tal- ents of both have been wholly conse- crated. The principle that “it 1s more blessed to give than to receive” was most certainly justified in the glowing faces of the happy congregation when it gathered on the outside to examine the committee's purchase. And while the pastor is more than overwhelmed by the munificent and intrinsic value of the present, such a manifest dis- position on the part of these noble men and women to so honor their lea- der is the most deeply touching ex- perience he has ever known. Gifts such as this are the result of sincere generosity, the child of tender, loving, appreciative regard, all of which sen- timents come from “the Great Father of Light, in whom is no veribleness, neither shadow of turning.” But this is a characteristic of the Zion Baptist Church;* generous almost to a fault, loyal to the point of sacrifice and sut- fering, and never content with any deed or service except {t approach that high plane upon which in sentiment and practice it ever seeks to live. “Thanks be to God for His unspeak- “able gift.” LET HISTORY SPEAK OUT “AND SHOW. ‘We want history to sno ee time has once again come in the work- ings of Almighty God's providence for the freed slave along with his sons and daughters, to dedicate themselves to freedom, berty and justice.

Manning at New York Meeting Eloquent Lawyer Protests Against Misrepresentation In Some Southern States. New York.—The hearty co-operation between white and colored citizens in movements for the good of the masses of both races in various sections of the country is an indication of the growth in friendliness of the two races toward a better understanding of their prob- lems and how torolve them. The great mass meeting in appreciation of the Hon. Joseph C. Manning, held in New York recently, was, therefore, a wise and timely movement on the part of our people. For thirty years Mr. Man- ning has championed the cause of our race in the south. He believes that the race {s entitled to the ballot, has a right to the protection of the law as given in the constitution and its amend- ments, A right is a just claim. ‘Among the prominent and influential men who delivered addresses in com- mendation of Mr. Manning's work were Ec aS et ee the Hom. Edward F. Cragin of the Re- publican club, this city; Attorney Isaac H. Nutter of Atlantic City, N. J.; Hon. George B. Wibecan of Brooklyn and Colonel William M. P. Bowen, chair- man of the Republican city committee, Providence, R. I. Mr. Bowen is a dis- tinguished barrister and a diligent ad- vocate of the principles of human jus- tice. In his address Mr, Bowen in part said: “T count it a privilege to join with you all in this merited tribute to the work of Hon. Joseph C. Manning. He has felt the fron hand of Bourbon rule, be has reached many minds that count and he has often, almost unaided, kept burning the light that shows the way toa just freedom. I wish that I might say the people of the north have ap- preciated his devotion as they ought, but in the generality of the application of southerm misrepresentation, in the multiplication of their own individual interests and in the overshadowing Eu- ropean struggle, I fear that all our people have not yet aroused their con- sciences as they should to action on this important subject. It has remain- ed for you in this serried meeting to emphasize the voice of those who have ‘loved Justice and hated iniquity.’ Political Reforms Needed. “Fashions and mankind move in recur- ring cycles. Some years ago, through Mr. Manning's efforts in the collection of convincing evidence, a large number of fraudulently elected Democratic congressmen were ejected from their seats. Today there is a growing dis ‘cussion of suggested changes in the na- tional election laws to prevent in fu- ture the wholesale robbery of the fed- eral franchise by one portion of the country to maintain its political as- cendency at Washington, through pstrangling the voter and carrying off his vote, “We in the north and west bave a direct concern in the presidential office and in the membership of the congress. It Is no mere matter of local interest, whether justifiable in local public opin- fon or not. Southern suppression of the national ballot, both black and white, fs playing the game with loaded dice and doesn't give the rest of the country a fair shake. Our property and our human rights are handled in such a way as the preponderating south and its allies may dictate, irrespective of what the actual majority of the whole people in this country may de sire. In the tanguage of the street. the tail wags the dog. “Now, what are we going to do about It? Well, let ua see. “We can protest -to our southern friends and arouse their sense of jus- Hee.

This is all inter- esting, but unprofitable. “What else is suggested? A national eRection law—call it what you will— that recognizes the right of every citt- zen of the United States of America to vote without intimidation for president and vice president and, for senators and representatives in the congress and to hae his vote honestly counted as cast. No longer should membership in the federal Louse of representatives be based upon population alone, but the provisions of Section 2 of the four- teenth amendment to the federal con- stitution should be made a living force rather than exist as a.mere scrap of paper. For one thing at least biparti- ‘pan federal inspectors of elections throughout the United States would generally give the country the facts upon which to reduce properly the rep- resentation in the congress from those ‘states where the national franchise ts denied or abridged. ‘American Autocracy Condemned. “We discuss today a state of war with the German empire for interfer- ing with we rights of American com- merce and of American altizens to use the free seas, and we are pledging more lives and greater treasure to combat the ruthless doctrine vf sink- ing ships without warning in « viola- tion of International law which af- fects our lives, safety. and property. | But as a nation we have remained too | indifferent to the beam in our own eye. We have condemned foreign autocra- cy and apologized for American, but we haven't yet effectively stopped el. ther. L “How shall we bring about appro- priate and effective national action on the southern question? In just the | soot old way that we Americans al- ways employ, whether at the grocery reuate, the crossroads, the clubs or the mass meetings. What did the argo | nauts do. the early settlers, the colo- nists, the forty-niners, the abolition. ists? And today what are the prohi- Ditionists and women suffragists do ing? They acted; they are acting. And so must we until the congress acts, Clean House at Home! “The smeee. People in maintain- ing thelr rights abroad must not forget to clean house at home, must not for- get to spread the gospel of equal | national rights, human justice and ib- erty as an actual fact and not a mere theory. » “When that 1s done state rights will keep step willingly with national and naturally adjust themselves to their cadence. We can all do missionary work in this cause by discussing tt with our neighbors, by pushing It for- ward In the press, the magazines and in publle gatherings. And lastly, but not least, let us support with such mears as we cau afford the work of | those who, like Mr. Manning, are de- voting their Hves and their labor to the cause of truth. Supply the sinews of war and his tried leadership will do the rest without fear or favor and without faltering, but with boundless enthusiasm and winning the victory. Defender Preaches Sound Doctrine. The Chicago Defender in speakin: editorially of racial -attitude in our country’s present crisis says, “We will brnsb aside the hundred and one rea sons why we should not shoulder arms for the defense of our country and re- member the thousand reasons why we should.” CLEAR AWAY THE WASTE Bowel regularity is the secret of good health, bright eyes, clear_com- plexions, and Dr. King’s New Tite Pills are a mild and gentle laxative that regulates the bowels and reliaues the congested intestines by removing the accumulated wastes without grip- ing.
