THREE HUNDRED AND TEN PHOTOS
Showing 325 Children Received in The New York Age Better Babies' Contest
MANY PHOTOS TOO LATE
A Number of Pictures Have Been Received Since September 2, But They Will Not be Accepted—Will be Returned to Senders.
IMPROPER CARE OF BABIES
Address Delivered by Washington Physician Showing How Improper Care of Babies Has Increased the Death Rate—Mother Intelligence and Mother Efficiency Essential for Desirable Heredity.
So far as receiving entries is concerned, THE NEW YORK AGE BETTER BABIES' CONTEST closed Thursday evening, September 2. Three hundred and ten pictures were received, and as a number of the pictures has two or more figures, some as many as five, there are at least three hundred and twenty-five babies and children entered. A number of photos have come in since which will not be accepted as entries.
Many of these pictures cannot be published, because the photos are not suitable for reproduction. They have been carefully gone over and sorted out, no photo being discarded unless it was absolutely impossible to get good results in reproducing. Including the issue of September 2, sixty photos have been reproduced. Of those remaining more than one hundred have been selected for reproduction. These will be given each week, until all have been used. Then the judges will be handed all of the photos—the entire 310—and as soon as they have arrived at their decision the awards will be made known and the silver cups delivered to the prize winners.
Doctors and Nurses to Judge.
It has been emphasized in these columns that no attache of The Age will in any way whatever have any thing to do with the selection of the prize winners. The committee of judges will be composed of disinterested men and women, selected for their ability and experience from the ranks of the physicians and trained nurses of the community, as far as possible. They will be unbiased and unprejudiced and their decisions will be accepted by The Age management without question.
Some of the parents and friends of parents whose children are entered in the contest have a mistaken idea that personal acquaintance with members of the Age staff can be used to bring about favorable action toward their particular interests. For instance, the following letter has been received by an attache of the Age.
We have entered our babies in your contest and have sent photos under separate cover. I am aware that you get consideration and felt that if I asked you personally you would do all your work for me and them. Any favors would be greatly appreciated by the entire family.
A year happens, the babies referred to are attractive little, tots and on their ears alone will probably engage the attention of the judges, but they will most certainly not receive any special consideration because of the above letter, written of course, the judges will never. An other letter, interesting because information concerning the children should contain a request, which, if not natural it may be for the eighth mother to express, is absolutely useful and out of place as an influencing effect. This mother says:
I am sending you the photographs of my two boys to be enclosed in the Age Letter Babies' contest. In the Age Letter I am perplexed to request that the judges them a fair chance. In asking this I do not mean to impute unfair or unjust motives, but simply because of the great number of photographs they shall have to pass upon. I feel that they merit more than a passing glance, I would not be amiss for me just here to refer to the mental ability of the oldest. Having been a pupil of our Presbyterian Parochial school, his last generous average was 90 per cent, the whole grade in the grade where the all the pupils were from two to four years his senior. He is now a fourth grade pupil.

Colored Voters in Angry Mood Over Scant Consideration Given Them
3 PRESIDENTIAL ASPIRANTS
Gov. Willis and Ex-Ambassador Herrick Being Prominently Mentioned—Gov. Willis Makes But Few Appointments, and Negro Republicans are not Enthusiastically Supporting Him.
(By Staff Correspondent of The Age).
CINCINNATI, O., Sept. 7—While at Columbus, Ohio's beautiful Capitol City, and which, by the way, is the Mecca for Ohio politicians of every hue and shade, I came in contact with many Ohio colored men from every section of the State. While they endorsed, and even praised Gov. Willis' action respecting the barring of certain photo plays, they were a unit in declaring that he had utterly failed to carry out his pre-election and ante-election promises to accord the race the recognition due their fifty thousand votes.
While sitting on the-platform at the reception given the K. P. Supreme lodge, and listening to the Governor's address of welcome, in which he extolled the race and announced it worthy of every consideration and honor, I turned and asked an Ohioan what he thought of the speech and he remarked: "Buncombe; he does not practice what he preaches." This set me to thinking.
The week before the K. P. Encampment, the Argus, a Columbus local weekly, which I learned was manned by Wilbur E. King, former Assistant County Prosecutor, and Capt. W. S. Thomas, late of the Spanish-American war, carried an editorial severely criticising the Governor for his derelection in recognizing the race in appointments. I also understood, while browsing in Ohio's political field, that the members of the Franklin County Republican Club, in which Mr. King is a prominent figure, were practically a unit in condemning the Governor's hesitancy about appointing members of the race.
The Situation in Cincinnati.
Dropping down to Cincinnati, I find the same situation exists—that the Governor has not dealt fairly with the colored constituents whom he promised, so much before and after the election which elevated him to the gubernatorial chair. I find that Hamilton County colored men praise the Governor's action respecting certain photo plays, but conflate his derelection in tulling his promises' reliance to patronage. The Governor claims credit for three representative appointments, namely two deputy oil inspectors at from $790 to $1,200, and a clerical position at $1,200. One of the deputy oil inspectors, and the clerical position, I learned from the Cleveland Gazette, were given to enemies of H. C. Smith. The Gazette's editor, who insists that these appointments were made by bureau heads and not by the Governor. It is apparent, therefore, that there is a misunderstanding between the Hon H. C. Smith and the Governor, in that the Governor claims credit for these appointments, while Mr Smith insists he was not responsible for them.
When I learned that former Ambassador Herrick might enter the list as an aspirant for Presidential nomination, I was impressed with the view the southern visitors to the K P Supreme Lodge took to his candidacy. In the South with every Negro, the late President McKinley's name is treasured as a green memory, for the reason that he named Negroes to office in that section while his successor adopted a policy of appointing no colored men to political offices in the South. Negroes in the South know that M-Herrick was a part of the McKinley-Hanna machine that accorded them justice, and therefore the mention of Mr Herrick's name as a presidential possibility arouses within them the hope that if he succeeds to the exalted office they will once more come into their own and the reign of the rebel brigadiers who have antagonized their political aspirations, both for a vote and for representation, will be over with.
The Colored Vote in Ohio.
Gov. Willis from all I could learn while drinking from Ohio's effervescent and unceasingly flowing political fountain, will be a Presidential candidate, but, unless he bestows himself, Mr. Herrick will carry with him the colored note of Ohio, in addition to that great mass of Ohioans who desire to see what a thorough business man can do in the presidential chair.
Last week under the operation of a new Civil Service law in Ohio, which is nothing more nor less than the old spoils system masquerading in a Civil Service garb. Democratic office-holders heads fell under the political guillotine with a rapidity, that perhaps was never before equalled, unless during the Room of Terror in France when the guillotine worked overtime decapitating the heads of the royalists. And yet, it is said down here in Cincinnati, among the observing, that but one colored man was appointed to fill the vacancy occasioned by the decapitation of Democrats, and he only landed a petty messenger job to succeed a colored Republican who had been in the service for years, and who was prominent in the Odd Fellow fraternity. As a result of removing a colored Republican head of the colored Odd Fellows in the State, the Republican administration even failed to give a Roland for and Oliver, and the colored Odd

MUST NOT ASK ABOUT
COLOR OF APPLICANTS.
Special to THE NEW YORK ACK.
for Posts, O. Sept. 7—The requirement made by the State Medical Board that applicants for certifications to practice certain branches of surgery in Ohio should state in their application race and complexion and tarnish a photograph has been eliminated as the secretary of the board in response to action taken by Governor Frank B. Wills.
The matter was brought by the governor's attention by Barton Stewart & Burnup actuators of surgical empority in Youngstown, graduates of the Proof Robber's and the Dr. Peter Kahler & Sons' Schools or Surgical theropy of New York. This firm wrote Gov. Willis, filing objection to the portion of the clause in the application blank making the requirements concerning race and complexion, and requesting a photograph of applicant. They are in receipt of the following letter from the governor.

Women Receive Inhuman Treatment.
Three hundred women were kept under guard, many of them seek but receiving no medical attention. The women were not allowed to leave the guard's house and at某个 time so was followed by threat of a shipping if it was repeated. An aged woman was carried to the building on a cot and her son not allowed to see her day or night. Another woman with a two-weeks' old baby is expected to die as a result of the treatment received. One death has already occurred.
The relief committee has formulated the following set of resolutions and it is said that unless the city officials make some reparation for the losses sustained by the people through the period of enforced servitude, the courts of justice will be appealed to. The resolutions.

Supreme Lodge, K. of P., E. & W. H., is in its Fourteenth Annual Session this Week in Old Massachusetts City-The Supreme Court, Mrs. Ross, S. W. C., Presiding, Also Meets.
pecial to The New York Age.
NEW BEDFORD, MASS., Sept. 8.—That the Negro may rely upon the courts of this country for ultimate justice was asserted by W. Ashbie Hawkins of Baltimore in an address before the delegates in attendance at the fourteenth biennial session of the Supreme Lodge of Knights of Pythias tonight. His theme was "The Negro and the Courts," and a large number of friends of the visiting Pythians were out to hear him.
"I do not by any means lose sight of the wrongful and unjust class legislation in many of the States of the Union," he said, "which is supported by the weight of judicial authority and I do not forget the distorted edicts of law and equity as they apply to us to be found in the law books and reports of judicial tribunals, from that of the humblest county court to that of the Supreme Court of the Nation. I do not leave out of my consideration the present tendency of too many courts to wipe aside established precedents, to nullify established rights as old as the law itself; to write their so-called humanity into their opinions, rather than the fixed rules and settled principles of the law, under the guise of that flexible, uncertain and undefined police power. I forget none of these—I abhor them as much as anyone. I regret that American jurisprudence is disgraced by their recital on its pages, but I repeat that black men, like white men, now find, and will continue to find, the largest security for their lives, their liberty and their honor in the decisions of our American courts.
Thought President All Powerful
"Emancipated by executive nat. protected for a time in its new freedom by the peace, of arms, it is not to be wondered that the Negro got the idea that the President was all powerful and that his security department had been having in the White House, a President patriarch, a political part of his choice. He has happily abhorred of that delusion, has discovered by self experience in recent years that it matters all President not alike, even if they do not look alike.
High praise was given the United States Supreme Court for its recent decision upsetting the grandfather clause in Southern election laws.
The session of the Supreme Lodge practically began Sunday night with presiding of the tribunal sermon by the W. S. Clerman of Philadelphia Mirror a service of worship.
The opening of the Supreme Lodge took place Monday, with Supreme Chancellor W. A. the Hawkins presiding.

Jethro, Ethiopian Priest of Midian, Originator of Representative Government
WHAT MILHOLLAND SAYS
Noted Sociologist Declares that the Foundation of the American Republic is Based on the Idea of the Ethiopian Priest.
WHITE MAN'S INGRATITUDE
In Return for What the Ethiopian Has Given in the Fundamental of the Form of Government Enjoyed by White Man, He Has Received Treatment So Abomni- nable it Cannot be Characterized.
John E. Milholland, of New York, is visiting in San Francisco, Calif., and Pauline Jacobson, a special writer on the San Francisco Bulletin, secured a page interview with the noted sociologist, in which he sets forth his idea of the debt the white man owes to the Negro. He declared that disfranchisement of the Negro is ingratiude to a race which has done much to humanity, and that lynching of blacks is indesirable in region where whites control all the courts.
But it was not Moses who first promulgated the idea of democracy. It was not Moses, the great lawyer, the man of transcendent genius and accomplishment who first imparted the secret of self-government, the antithesis of tyranny. Moses knew little about it. He knew only the king business. He had been brought up in the court of the Pharaoh's. What he had seen of human government was a remorseless despotism, the will of one man backed by the black magic of priestcraft and the brutality of military strength. He had probably never heard of any other form of government
Democracy Came From Ethiopia.
Who was it that Why the Ethiopian priest of Mbita, his own father-in-law Jethro, in the unconscious requirements of a local missioner Jethro, saw the foundations of the American Republic, and every effort to demoralize that world has seen throughout the interwar years.
"Moses sat, as he had perished, seen Pharaoh sit at Memphis listening to the complaints of the furies and the individuals that came to him with their grievances, petty or serious, and the tribes with their large questions of dispute. He instead with three patience wasting his grievances of statesmanship upon the petty understandings of a he should. He bore all the notorious curring, mind-marring process of the characteristies of misness, showing no other way, seeing no means in which he could escape the garden without becoming disheveled to his position as leader of the Moses could not see, Jethro had or vision. What is this thing that destroys to the people, Jethro asked or disgusted. Why sittest thou, sell a corn and all the people stand on morning unto even."
in the morning unto even."
Moses answers humbly. The people come into me to inquire of God when they have a matter they come into me, to judge between one and another, to judge between a man and his how to make known unto them the cost of God and His laws. Such institutions devotion to duty. Such institutions consolation. But it doesn't bind Jethro, the man of color, to the commensurance of the situation. He answers with almost brutal boldness.
The thing that that thou dost is not good. Thou will surely waste a way, such thou and this people, for the thing is too heavy for thee. The art not able to perform it this alone.
Jethro Outlined Representatives Government.
Harken thou unto me, old old Jethro, and I will give thee counsel. He proceeds now to tell Moses that he teach the people ordinances and laws, wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do, but that all must

A PREDICTION
Gov. MOSES ALEXANDER of Idaho addressed the Congregation of Shaari Zedek in one of the Jewish synagogues in Brooklyn a few nights ago. His speech must have been highly inspiring. His message to his hearers was that to be a Jew is no impediment to the gaining of high civic honors. He dwelt upon the fact that Idaho had brushed aside all religious and racial bigotry, and placed a Jew in the Governor's chair. He also made the following prediction:
"The day Will come when a Jew, living according to the ideals of his religion, will occupy the Governor's chair in every State of our country; and I hope that I will live to see the day when a worthy Jew, possessed of the knowledge of God and guided only by the highest ideals of his religion, will be made Governor of this, the Empire State."
We have not the slightest doubt that the Jews will make that prediction come true, in a large measure. We are not sure they will be able to put a member of their race in the gubernational chair of Georgia at any early date, but we are willing to risk even money that the time is not far off when they will do it in New York.
It is idle to wish that the Negro had more of that faith the Jew has in himself, of that Jewish stick-to-gather spirit, and of that Jewish knack of getting and holding some of this world's goods?
THE HAITIAN SITUATION
Recent despatches from Haiti were somewhat disquieting. It appears that in certain parts of the country the natives are unwilling to lay down their arms and submit to American authority; such, as a consequence. Admiral CAPERTON has found it necessary to declare martial law and land a larger number of American forces.
We doubt that there is any considerable opposition or resistance in fact, any amount of resistance would, in the end, be futile. No one could know this better than the intelligent Haitians themselves, and it is their duty to so advise all their fellow-patriots, and thus save needless hardship, and blood-bed. American intervention is now a fact in Haiti, and the sooner all Haitians acknowledge it and make up their minds to get the best out of it for their country, so much the better will the results be.
However, whatever difficulties Admiral CAPPERTON is encountering emphasize the wisdom of the Commission Plan which was submitted to the President by Dr. W. E. B. Dr. Bous. They also emphasize the fact that if such a commission is to accomplish the highest good for Haiti, it should be made up, at least, partly, of representative and qualified colored men.
PARAGRAPHS.
A coroner's jury at Marietta, Ga., has rendered its verdict and closed it with the following jurat:
"We, the jurors, aforesaid, upon our oath say that Leo M. FRANK did on the 17th day of August, 1915, in said county, come to his death by being hanged by the neck until dead, by unknown parties."
Now, if there is anybody in the United States over fourteen years of age, who are surprised at this verdict, we suggest that parents or friends at once have their heads examined.
United States needs unsinkable hattleships.—Headline.
We ought to know by this time that there ain't no sich thing.
INTEREST IN HAITI AND ITS PEOPLE.
The great war has done more to stimulate the study of geography than have the monitions of all the school teachers. A majority of Americans, young and old, have gained within the last twelve months a wider knowledge about Europe than they had gathered in all their lives previous. People, who before the war had only a hazy and confused idea about the Balkan States or the divisions of Poland, can now locate those countries and tell something about their inhabitants, their governments and their resources. There were many of us whose knowledge of even France, Germany and Austria was decidedly limited. Two years ago the average person could not have told whether Riga was on the Black Sea or the Baltic. All of this knowledge of foreign peoples and governments and customs is valuable and useful. The most progressive nations have generally been those which knew most about the outside world and had the widest contact with other peoples.
We have been led to acquire all of this geographical information—using the word geographical in its broadest sense—by the great events that are taking place in Europe. But Europe is not the only part of the world that is the theatre of great events. Great events are taking place in Haiti. The theatre is smaller, but the events are equally important, for the people concerned. Then why should not what is taking place in the Black Republic stir the Negro in this country to learn, at least, as much about Haiti as the great war has stirred the whole American people to learn about Europe?
The following paragraph from a long article in The Evening Post may serve to awaken interest and start inquiry:
Haiti is held by scientists to be the richest island in natural resources and fertility of soil in the entire world, with the exception of Java. The similarity of the two islands is stillitic. Both are tropical, both have much the same physical formation, even the climate, with its dependent islands, however, has an area less than twice that of Haiti; but under Dutch rule it supports a population of 31,000,000, which is constantly increasing—and observers are not inclined to regard the Dutch system of colonial administration as an unmittal blessing.
The statements made in the above quoted paragraph are not exaggerations; they are borne out by the Encyclopedia Britannica, a publication which deals only in cold facts. It is not such an island as this worth learning something about, especially by the colored people of the United States?
The island was discovered by Columbus, who landed at Mole St. Nicholas on December 6, 1492. Since that date, its history has been as varied and interesting and, oftimes, as tragic as that of any other spot on earth. This history should be read and studied by every colored American, if for no other reason than that a part of it is the life and acts of Toussaint L'Ouverture, the greatest character yet produced by the Negro in the Western Hemisphere; and for that matter one of the greatest characters the world has produced.
The entire island, which includes both the Republic of Santo Domingo and the Republic of Haiti, contains about 28,000 square miles. This is just a little less than the area of Ireland or South Carolina. The population is about 2,250,000. But we are just now concerned with Haiti. The Republic of Haiti occupies the western third, a little over 10,000 square miles, and has a population of 1,500,000. Belgium, with practically the same area, has a population of 7,000,000.
Haiti occupies only one-third of the island, but has two-thirds of the entire population. It differs in other ways from its close neighbor: the language, customs and historical background of Haiti are French, while in Santo Domingo they are Spanish. Also, the population of Haiti is almost purely Negro, while that of Santo Domingo is mixed.
Many people may think of Haiti as a low, marshy, malarial country: nothing could be farther from correct; it is decidedly mountainous, one of its peaks rising to a height of 10,300 feet. It has a wider range of climate than any other part of the Antilles, the temperature varying from 45 to 95 degrees Fahrenheit. In richness and variety of vegetable products it is not surpassed by any country in the world. To give a list of these products would take more space than we can afford. The country abounds in cabinet and dye woods, and its unexplored hills contain valuable mineral deposits. The coast line of Haiti shows more than a half dozen excellent harbors. Port-au-Prince lies at the head of a great, deep harbor with more than 200 square miles of safe anchorage for ships.
In this respect Haiti is blessed beyond many Latin-American countries. In some South and Central American countries many rich products are valueless because of the lack of accessible harbors.
In fact, everything that nature can provide to make a people prosperous and happy has been given to the Haitians is only left for them to establish the right sort of government, education and training. However, what Haiti has done is not to be sneered at; when we consider her greater handicaps, we must conclude that she has done fully as well as some of her sister republics.
The step which the United States has taken should result in great good to Haiti and great credit to this government. But this can only come about if the men who are sent to administer Haitian affairs are men who feel and know that they can treat justly and sympathetically with black people.
Nothing in the proposed plan of the United States is of greater importance than the provision for a constabulary under the command of an American officer. A constabulary, independent of all factions, fearlessly preserving order and impartially enforcing the law would be a long step toward the end of revolution and the establishment of stable government. It is needless to say that the one man pre-eminently fitted to organize and command such a body of men is Major Charles Young of the regular army.
Haiti need feel no extreme humiliation because she requires the aid of the American nation to help her reach her highest development; the great nations of Europe are to-dayno longer savages and barbarians simply because they learned the lessons that Rome taught.
These rather random paragraphs are given not, for what they contain, but solely with the hope that they will serve to arouse in our readers the desire to learn more about the wonderful island of Haiti and its people.

Brian has ended the war. At the meeting of the "Friends of Peace" in Chicago, which he addressed Mr. Somerville, an English rector and Mr. Berkemeir, a German minister, were called to the speakers' stand and requested to clasp hands. They are reported to have done more than clasp hands. They are said to have embraced and kissed each other, while the audience burst into frantic applause. And to think, the man who is taking part in such silly, sentimental rot as that used to be our Secretary of State and entrusted with the guiding of the foreign affairs of this great nation through such times as these.
Here is a sample of the sort of philosophy which is germinated in the polished and imposing (externally) dome of the ex-Secretary: "There is a difference between one's right and one's duty. Sometimes it is a citizen's duty not to exercise his rights. Citizens should keep out of the danger zone."
Of course, a man is under no compulsion to exercise his rights,
be taken he refrains from doing so it must be by his own choice. If a man refrains from exercising a right because he fears or knows that somebody is going to stop him, why he simply hasn't got the right. We must again repeat that, intellectually and spiritually, Mr. Bryan would attain the farthest reach of his capabilities as the superintendent of a large Sunday school.
To start with, Dumba does not strike us an apt name for a diplomat; at any rate, the Austrian Ambassador has acted just about as his name looks. It would have been risky enough for Dumba to have tried by secret influences to disorganize and tie up the manufacture of arms and munitions in this country, but for him to outline his plans in an uncoded despatch forwarded by a messenger who was already under suspicion, makes us wonder how he ever rose to be American Ambassador in the Austrian diplomatic service.
Here is an extract from his letter:
It is my impression that we can disorganize and hold up for months, if not entirely prevent, the manufacture of munitions in Bethlehem and the middle West, which, in the opinion of the German military attache, is of great importance and amply outweighs the expenditure of money involved.
A British, and a Spanish minister at Washington were handed their passports for offenses of less gravity; and there is little doubt that the Administration will deal severely with Ambassador Dumba. This action of the Austrian representative brings up again the question we put in these columns some weeks ago: What would be the attitude and conduct of Americans of German descent if this country went to war with either of the Teutonic powers? Our Germanic citizens have about answered the question.
We ask our friends and enemies if there has ever been occasion to put any such question regarding the probable attitude and conduct of Americans of African descent.
BIRTH OF DEMOCRACY
Elsewhere we print an interesting article in which Mr. JOHN E. MILHOLLAND traces the first word said on democracy back beyond JEFFERSON, back of THOMAS PAINE, back of the Magna Charta, back of ARISTOTLE and PLATO, till he finds it in the mouth of JEFFERSON, the Ethiopian father-in-law of MOSES.
Whether our readers will agree that the idea of democracy has its birth in JETHRO's mind or not, they will find the article well worth reading; in fact, JETHRO is only an unimportant part of it. We advise those who may be interested in the part of Moses's life which is not generally known, to read JOSEPHUS; there they will find a great many things not recorded in the Bible. For if we are not forgetting what we learned at Sunday school, the Bible does not plainly state that Moses married an Ethiopian woman.

Programs of Racial Discrimination.
Those who take leadership in the so-called We be the first to deny that they entertain feeling Negro people, yet it is a matter of comment thoughtful men of the race, that there is more Uplift Movements than among any other groups. It is a strange thing that this race-prejudice movements, never manifests itself against the Italians as Italians, against Poles as Poles, or alien population. But wherever the Negro, concerned, immediately race prejudice rears its Uplift Movements find themselves helpless; the straight-out, stand-up position in opposition to our attention has lately been called to the so-called Anti-Saloon League, one of these Up. It seems that most of their activities during the devoted to the south. Taking advantage of section, which exclude the Negro from voting League, have gone to the southern white voters, fight for prohibition in the south is not aimed at Negroes of the south.
Orators have gone up and down the land insidiously instilling the doctrine that the proftake from the reach of the Negro in the citi indulge his preference for malt or vinoine beverget and all they desire for themselves.
Of course, this plea has not fallen upon un addressed to the ignorance and prejudice of so the Negro of some privilege or right possessed, being taken up by these ignorant whites and en Doctor Robert E·E, Jones, editor of the Sow New Orleans, La, is one of the best known and of the Negro people. So flagent was the prejuj of the Anti-Saloon League in Louisiana that D protest against the discriminations shown by the League. The Negro people of Louisiana population of the State of Louisiana. They when the Anti-Saloon League launched its move the Negro generally excluded from all meeting whites, but nothing was done to tie to the move people as represented by their ministers and prejudiced disposition of the so-called Flying S paper a full statement which is called to the at they may know what they have to expect wi "Unlifters."
Those who take leadership in the so-called Uplift Movements would probably be the first to deny that they entertain feelings of racial prejudice against the Negro people, yet it is a matter of comment, more or less, common among thoughtful men of the race, that there is more race prejudice in these so-called Uplift Movements than among any other groups of people.
It is a strange thing that this race prejudice, in carrying forward these movements, never manifests itself, against the Germans as Germans, against Italians as Italians, against Poles as Poles, or against any other group of our alien population. But wherever the Negro, who is a native-born citizen, is concerned, immediately race prejudice rears its ugly head, and the leaders in these Uplift Movements find themselves helpless; that is, too weak to undertake a straight-out, stand-up position in opposition to such racial prejudice!
Our attention has lately been called to the attitude and activities of the so-called Anti-Saloon League, one of these Uplift Movements, and its officers. It seems that most of their activities during the past six or eight years have been devoted to the south. Taking advantage of the disfranchising laws of that section, which exclude the Negro from voting, the officers of the Anti-Saloon League have gone to the southern white voters with the cunning plea that their fight for prohibition in the south is not aimed so much at the whites as at the Negroes of the south.
Orators have gone up and down the land from North Carolina to Texas instantly invigilating the doctrine that the prohibition movement is designed to take from the reach of the Negro in the cities and towns the opportunity to indulge his preference for malt or vinous beverages, while permitting whites to get and use all they desire for themselves.
Of course, this plea has not fallen upon unwilling ears, as any plea when addressed to the ignorance and prejudice of southern whites, calculated to rob the Negro of some privilege or right possessed by themselves, is always sure of heine taken up by these ignorant whites and endorsed.
Doctor Robert E. Jones, editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate at New Orleans, La., is one of the best known and one of the most unselfish leaders of the Negro people. So flagrant was the prejudice shown by the representatives of the Anti-Saloon League in Louisiana that Dr. Jones was moved to editorial protest against the discriminations shown by the so-called Flying Squadron of the League. The Negro people of Louisiana constitute nearly one-half of the population of the State of Louisiana. They were entirely ignored and spurned when the Anti-Saloon League launched its movement in Louisiana. Not only is the Negro generally excluded from all meetings held in the interest of and by whites, but nothing was done to tie to the movement the influence of the colored people as represented by their ministers and business men. In view of the prejudiced disposition of the so-called Flying Squadron, Dr. Jones wrote in his paper a full statement which is called to the attention of the Negro people that they may know what they have to expect when they are dealing with such "Uplifters."
The editorial statement follows:
"Moreover, recognizing the situation we saw, the colored citizens of this city made a of at least one of these speakers in order that the government of the Anti-Saloon League was written, in charge in New Orleans was written, and a Minister composed of all the appointed a special committee to co-operate.
"During the presence of the Flying Squad Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church of twelve hundred ministers attending with a State of eighteen thousand, with an additional thousand. At the time this conference was in New Orleans, body and agreed to fix an hour that was conceived was no effort to yield to the situation, nor was forgotten and absolutely eliminated and there would be willing, but this procedure would not told that this is a political fight and that the Negro Louisiana could qualify immediately on the pro-thousand Negroes and more paid their tax this year. These the emperors forces alarms. The saloon forces every man, and more particularly the Negro, perance forces offer him the cold shoulder. It does not lay himself out whole soul and body and a few representative Negroes are berated suffrage of the race bodily on the side of темп the Negroes to pull chests out of the fire for to scorn, or which discriminates against them.
This newspaper is unequivocally opposed to when the Negro is concerned prohibits, and white man is concerned. This newspaper is also—Wojman's Suffrage Movement, Prohibition Mo which seeks to discriminate against our people. Anti-Saloon League and to any League of similar the Negroes to pull chests out of the fire for to scorn, or which discriminates against them.
Throughout this whole country our people these evangelists from the north go sweeping do straight-out insistence as to whether or not the ment or movements, or subordinated to the low such "orders" or "instructions" as may be given
"The State of Texas was lost to the saloon because of the procedure of the temperance forces in that State. It was circulated that that was a white man's fight and the temperance people participated in this, and if they had a narrow margin of the Negro vote Texas would have been a dry State, to days.
This newspaper is unequivocally opposed to that kind of prohibition which when the Negro is concerned prohibits, and which does not prohibit when the white man is concerned. This newspaper is absolutely opposed to any movement—Wogman's Suffrage Movement, Prohibition Movement or any other movement—which seeks to discriminate against our people. This newspaper is opposed to the Anti-Saloon League and to any League of similar character which expects to use the Negroes to pull chestnuts out of the fire for them and which holds them up to scorn, or which discriminates against them.
There is no use mining words in a matter past has been used by white men drawing large amounts, while the Negro has complacently accepted these white officers have paraded themselves delivered the Negro vote, or the Negro influence. It has been all too true that when the offege south they have been quite willing—in fact declaration of the southern white leaders in the toward the Negro people should be. Hobson warned those leaders against doing anything the so-called race question of such marplots.
If the Negro is to help the Anti-Saloon I future he has a right to demand the privilege of with the managing of these various campaigns, serving upon precisely the same terms of recognition the movement.
So far as we are concerned, this newspaper his position, namely, that prohibition is a man individual counties and individual states. It is national question, but some of our men are in question. There are likely to be honest different white men. Ringing declarations, however, she where that they are done with men who are as level of equality. If these men are ashamed of they are more ashamed of us after they have we. Throughout-the south, even now in those attempts are made to use the Negroes as boots men who use these Negroes go scot free, and a neither millstones. We are ground to death bettion and those who use the Negro against prohibit. It should be our purpose everywhere to dominate these organizations shall not be allowed not be permitted to elevate prejudice and racif fair, square dealing. He that is ashamed of Neither do we need him in ours.
Dr. Jones has spoken out most bravely in mindedness and to the littleness of some of the in the south. Our leaders everywhere should even while standing for prohibition should put upon recognition without reference to the prejct control such movements.
There is no use mincing words in a matter of this kind. The Negro in the past has been used by white men drawing large salaries from these various movements, while the Negro has complacently accepted subordinate relationships, while these white officers have paraded themselves around the country as having delivered the Negro vote, or the Negro influence, in certain directions.
It has been all too true that when the officers of these organizations have gone south they have been quite willing—in fact, all too willing—to accept the dictation of the southern white leaders in the south as to what their attitude toward the Negro people should be. Hobson and other small white men have warned those leaders against doing anything that would seem to complicate the so-called race question of such marplots.
If the Negro is to help the Anti-Saloon League fight in its battles in the future he has a right to demand the privilege of having some part in connection with the managing of these various campaigns. Our leaders should insist upon serving upon precisely the same terms of recognition as the white men supporting the movement.
So far as we are concerned, this newspaper stands with President Wilson in his hands, namely, that prohibition, is a matter which should be left to the individual counties and individual states. It is not and should not be made a national question, but some of our men are likely to be on both sides of this question. There are likely to be honest differences among us as there are among white men. Ringing declarations, however, should be made by our men everywhere that they are done with men who are ashamed to work with them on the level of equality. If these men are ashamed of us before winning their battle, they are more ashamed of us after they have won their battles.
Throughout the south, even now in those cities where prohibition exists, attempts are made to use the Negroes as bootleggers and as snakes. The white men who use these Negroes go scot free, and so we are between the upper and neither millstones. We are ground to death between those who fight for prohibition and those who use the Negro against prohibition.
It should be our purpose everywhere to insist that the Liliputians who dominate these organizations shall not be allowed to have full sway. They should not be permitted to elevate prejudice and racial discrimination over and above fair, square dealing. He that is ashamed of us needs us not in his business. Neither do we need him in ours.
Dr. Jones has spoken out most bravely in calling attention to the narrow-mindedness and to the littleness of some of the men in charge of this movement in the south. Our leaders everywhere should insist upon square dealing, and even while standing for prohibition should put their race first, and should insist upon recognition without reference to the prejudices which usually govern and control such movements.

Some Striking Pictures.
Among the photos reproduced this week are two groups of twins, both, by considerate nailing from New Jersey. An interesting feature to the Contest Editor has been the entries of twins and sibling family groups, and extraordinarily developed children. Some of the twins have been presented and last week two photos were reproduced, one of a boy seven years old, weighing 160 pounds, and the other of a girl twelve years old, weighing 220 pounds. If the future of the Negro race is to be predicted on prospects indicated by these labial pictures, remarkable things are out there.
I have a lot of babies is attracting more and more the attention of parents, and psychiatrists throughout the country are taking a attitude of every opportunity to communicate information and advice concerning this important matter. A few days ago the Christian Endeavor Society, Plymouth Congregational Church, Washington, D. C. was addressed to Dr. Verdinand D. Whitby, who for his subject the improper car of horses. Declaring that every man in the world is an expression of God will, and that the infant person in four great relations to us and to his fellow-beings, the relation of our happiness, influence and character, the factor emphasized that whatever parents prior to the birth of our offspring which is in distress to the physical and mental growth means for that offspring growth character, influence and happiness. I address in part was as follows:
The bodies whom you rock and cradle here in this city are to become men and women of the world of pure love, those free motives and clear conceptions that must receive from their mothers and fathers at the earliest opportunity of their ever clear minded existence, that the care of their bodies and their function.
Health the Highest Development.
The highest development of a great commercial, industrial and agricultural community is health. Gladstone well付它 when he said that the value of the nation is the value of the nation. It is convenient to me this evening to modify his statement to say that in the health of the little people—babies—lies the wealth of a nation. Health preservation in babies is a sort of a tradition among most of us that the place to get fresh air and sunshine is the country, still room in the rural districts with the blinds closed and windows down gets more in an industry tenement. The preservation of health of babies in this nation is not a question of geography, but closely with the mother and father. The lips of members of the Pure Relief Society comes a plea for pure milk stations, nurseries, and camps up which babies can be better fed nourished and clothed. Every earnest physician endorses such a place. She calls wealth the fundamental cause of infant mortality and morbidity.
Mother's Plea for Instruction.
There should be a plex for light. Every honest and devoted mother should make a plea for that school in his life to be a world unhandicapped by any defences to offset it in its normal eating, sleeping, and proper development. The death rate of babies will be reduced. Mother intelligence and mother education. Physical and mental hygiene must be daily living laws in the life of every woman before she is to assume the responsibility of
Mother intelligence and mother education. The two cardinal virtues should be the establishment of a bond between a mother and a child of the outcome of a little child. The responsibility of motherhood should start far beyond the gift of the baby. It should start with the mother's routine virus. The mother's role is the most important of the mother's role. The stepping task of woman is the bearer of the right of her daily thinking. She is the intelligent education for motherhood. The death rate and diseases in this country are the greatest of the necessity of health.
The Price of Neglect.
It is estimated twenty million public school children in the United States, with five million manifesting diseases of the brain, costs $15,000,000 of public school support, three hundred thousand in the United States and five hundred thousand in the United States. Twenty-five per cent of the diseases could have been prevented, two per cent solution of silver nitrate dropped into the eye of the brain with the birth of a child, and furnishing the material to protect the eyes at birth, could be complained with the sum of $10,000,000, still the United States lost $4,000,000 for the support of independent schools. It is estimated 90,000 children in the State of New York City with the grades of them two years behind the State of Illinois buries 14,000 children as a result of deaths, noses, and throats. The State of Illinois buries 14,000 children as a result of every death. Sixper per death could be avoided.

If these could be established a thorough system of health education, eighty-six per cent of all babies who die from malnutrition totally red babies. Since this is true, the problem death in the cities is almost wholly a problem of over, under and irregular feeding. Mothers should be taught the specific indications for the removal of their babies from the breast, and the child on artificial nutrition. They should be taught how to graduateings according to the age of the child, the weight and capacity of its stomach.

LESSONS LEARNED.
TUESDAY morning the New York newspapers published, dispatches from Philadelphia which told of the exciting scenes attending the initial presentation of "The Birth of a Nation" in that city Monday evening; of how colored men were arrested, for hissing objectionable features in the picture and how, according to the daily papers, the white people in the audience applauded the actions of the police in summarily dealing with the colored Americans who made known their resentment against the uncalled for defamation of their race in no uncertain terms.
Thus another chapter has been added to the vicious plot to make money by creating race hatred. Some years ago, with Jesse A. Shipp, Jr. as the moving spirit and the organization is well-known for its many acts of kindness and affability. The members are Harold Hardin, Johnie Hodges, Henderson Huggins, Bennie Wright, Raymond Wright, Thomas Langford, Victor Parks, Har

provoked disturbances of the peace.
"The Birth of a Nation" was taken from "The Clansman," and colored Americans everywhere will watch with interest the attitude to be taken by the authorities of the City of Brotherly Love in the matter of following precedents.
The failure of colored Americans in many cities to stop the production of "The Birth of a Nation" should awaken them to a realization that the race, as a whole, is weak and defenseless. Our position in this country is analogous to that of Belgium in Europe. And until colored Americans come to a proper appreciation of their impotency as a race we will continue to have indignities and injustices heaped upon us.

Just as statesmen and writers in this country are demanding "preparedness" in the United States, not so much to provoke war as to prevent war, so should colored Americans get closer together, for there is much truth in thelage: "In union there is, strength." Colored people are mistreated and defamed in the United States because the weakness of the race is well known. That we would rather quarrel among ourselves than organize to fight those who would unjustly do us injury is well known to the average Caucasian.
Nations and people do not openly insult and bully those whom they fear. No man takes it upon himself to hit another, especially without good cause, if he thinks the other fellow can whip him; and for that matter, if a bully thinks he is going to be given a lively physical argument, even should he finally win out, he is very api to persuade himself to refrain from making an unwarranted attack.
The colored American is largely responsible for many indignities which he is forced to endure at the hands of prejudiced Caucasians, for those of the Tom Dixon type realize even more so than many colored citizens, that we are inclined to quarrel among ourselves, making it difficult to effectively resent ill-treatment and misrepresentations.
Several days after the lynching of Leo Frank in Georgia, motion picture promoters brought to New York for presentation a picture which dealt with the putting to death of the slayer of Mary Phagan. The Jews of New York got together and decided to prevent the production of the film in the metropolis, which they did. But the colored citizens of the same city were unable to prevent "The Birth of a Nation" from being shown, a picture which misrepresents and publicly ridicules ten-millions of people—not one man.
Another lesson colored Americans should learn from "The Birth of a Nation" is that money talks in this world. Sentimental views about securing the rights of the downtrodden sound well in speeches and in articles, but the cold facts are—money commands respect and secures you rights and privileges. The primary cause of the great European war is money, and the more colored Americans lawfully organize for their own good and that of the country, and the more money they acquire, the more effective they will be able to defend themselves from cruel race prejudice and race persecution, and the more respectful consideration they will be able to demand and receive.
The Mutual Filmi Corporation, H. T. "Aitken, President, appears to be proud of its connections with "The Birth of a Nation" prominently displaying the important part it has played in getting out the picture on advertisements shown in various cities. There are
hundreds of motion picture houses throughout the United States conducted by and in the interest of colored Americans, and the position colored managers take in the future toward the Mutual Film Corporation H. T. Aitken, President, will be closely watched.

BIG-ACT SCORES AT THE LAFAYETTE
The best, biggest and brightest colored act seen in New York in a long time, is on exhibition at the Lafayette Theatre, this week, which is billed as Irvin C. Miller and his Mister Ragitt Company. The act is presenting a sixty-minute musical tabloid, entitled "Mr. Ragitt," and although one hour is regarded as a long stretch of time for one act to remain continuously on the stage, it can be said that this turn does not become tedious, or borseme.
"Mr. Ragitt" is constructed without a plot, but the comedy situations, which are the feature of the turn, are "sandwiched in to, make it acceptable and readily understood, even if a patron dropped in the theatre-near the finish. Irvin C. Miller, who is the producer of the act, is pleasing in his dancing and his partner, Esther Bigoue, talks, sings and dances in such a manner as to attract favorable attention. She possesses that something known on the stage as "personality," and it serves her in good stead.
Harlem has already declared Henry Jines to be a funny little comedian, and he plays an important part in working up the humorous situations. Then there is Doe Doe Green, who is also successful in his efforts to put the audience in good humor and his work is also deserving of praise. Others in the act are Emma Michaels, Magnolia Cox, Lula Whidy, May Nickerson, Francis Woods, Lottie Turner, Quintard Miller, Elwood Brown, Edward Marshall and Rastus Young.
There is something doing in this act every minute, and while thert could be more harmony and less volume in the musical numbers, all of them get over.
Another act to go big at the Lafayette the first half of the week was the Six Musical Beauties. Four of the young women play violins while one plays a banjo. The other "beauty" in the act is a male banjoist'of no little ability.
Doza opened the bill with an accordian, which he played together with bells which had an electric arrangement which was novel. Bessie Leonard did a single which won applause.
Cecil Mann, who is teaming with Edgar Comor in vanuelle, is now Mrs. Clvde B. Gains. She was married on Saturday, August 28, at Crown Point, Ill. Mr. Gains conducts an automobile service in Chicago.

Boy Morse at Michelin Meat
Representatives of the Salem Crescent Club participated in three meets on Labor Day and won four first prizes. In the 100-yard dash Roy Morse and Herman Foster won while A. D. Pendleton won the 150-yard run and John Brunson won the 1000-yard run. Several second prizes were captured.
Roy Morse of the Salem Crescent made his first appearance in the East since his return from San Francisco, where he was winner in the 20-yard senior championship at the Michelin games at New Brunswick, N. J.
In the Evening Globe, Howard Valentine tells of Morse's performance on Labor Day as follows:
"The bright, particular star of the Michelin games was that little colored lad from Harlem named Roy Morse. It was Morse's first "in form" appearance at the 220-yard senior championship at Sun Francisco, and he showed us well how he outran the best, sprinter in the land on the Exposition track. Morse was a life in her moments in his heyday, two behind him, two yards behind scratch, but when he finally got going to a fair start he picked up beautifully and qualified handily in 10 15-seconds. As Morse was running 120 yards this was practically a ten-second period. In the final Morse removed all doubts as to his ability to do "sevens." The colored dyer came.
along with a tremendous rush in
the last twenty-five yards and
won the closest kind of a decision
from Lippincott of the Knights of
St. Antony, who ran off seven
yards, a slyster Johnstow, the
"Knights" star dasher, who started
from one and a half yards,
third, securely eighteen inches back. It was a rattling finish."
At the Michelin gains the St. Christopher A: C. With B. T. Harvey, Leo Granger, William Stokley and Harold Richardson won the medley relay race. A team representing the Salemers finished third.
At Great Neck, L. I., Herman Foster of Salem Crescent A: C. won the century race from scratch in 10 2-5 seconds. On the same field John Brunson captured first prize in the 1000-yard run with a handicap of 21 yards. A brilliant sprint on the home stretch gave Brunson the victory by less than two yards.
The Salem-Crescent runners at Yonkers also gave a good account of themselves. A. D. Pendleton won clear victory the 150-yard dash. Pendleton defeated Sanger and Holloway of the New York A: C. in a furious finish, breasting the tape just half a yard ahead of Sanger.
O Hawkins placed second in the 600-yard run and the Salem Crescent relay team placed third in the one-mile relay race.
Two Colored Boys Win-at Paterson.
At the West Side Improvement and Protective Association games held Labor Day in Paterson two colored lads were almost the whole show.

This race was run in five minutes flat. Flournoy ran well in several other races although he did not place.
Frank L. Hailstork, Jr., the other lad, showed up well winning the quarter-mile hurdle race with case in the good time of 59 seconds and also coping second in the 300-yard dish which was reeled off in 36 seconds.

His knowledge of His Father's will, and adds a whitman, execute the Holy Ghost in seen in this expression of His will do always the will of Him that sent me. He identified himself with the laboring classes and became a rightous, constant, and steadfast, keeper, there was no more industrious than to be found. During his three years of public work he excelled all, even the masters in the fields of practical domain of thought. As a preacher, teacher no man spoke like him, his words were sympathy and life. As a physician, a restorer of life, he outhouses the aldebs, as the sun of our solar system outshines the heavenly constellations at midday in our sky. As a philosopher among the greatest of Plane in all else as to the seven hills of Rome.
As an intelligent laborer he has won recognition and eternal distinction for all laborers who follow his example. He was a Master Thinker, a Master Worker and our salvation in His own way he was always conscious that God worked in Him to will and to do of His good pleasure. Hence, the Immuanel would have us to do all things without murmurings and disputations, that God would not be shaken. Song of God without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom we are to shine as lights in the world, holding forth the Word of Life. We ask the horry band of the landman, the grimy face farmer, the blackened-face miner, the manufacturer, the merchant, the teacher, the preacher, the lawyer, the doctor, the editor, the scientist, the sailor, and the soldier and all other to action. "Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest my take myoke upon you and learn of me. Let the people yoke with our Lord the Immuanel, then all laborers will be healthy is helpful, is beautiful, is useful and becomes Holy.

Y. M. C. A. Note:

A. by Prof. Causwell Crews, institution of theology at St. Paul Normal School at Lawrenceville, Va.; and the Rev. W. H. Brooks, pastor of St. Mark's M. E. Church. Song service was conducted by the secretary.
Prof. Crews said that the white man preached one thing and meant over the word welcome over the doors of the churches were entirely meaningless when it came down to Negroes becoming members of those churches or even attending them.
Brooks said that it seems that something is wrong with Christianity today, but in God's one time things would be righted. Last Tuesday evening Charles Anderson, the well known banker of Florida, was the speaker.
James L. Jamison, Jr., supervisor of the public schools of Princeton, N. J., will be the speaker next Sunday afternoon.
