DRASTIC RESOLUTIONS ARE ADOPTED published American Historical Society Paint Painkint Minnesota To Sec Equality SURVEY DISCLOSE LARGE FIELD FOR EXTENSION WORK Urban League Executive Encouraged by Prospects in West. New York, July 17.—Eugene Kinckle Jones, Executive Secretary of the National Urban League, has just returned to New York after a 7,500-mile trip to Pacific Coast cities where he investigated the social conditions among Negroes and inspected work of the Urban League in cities of the Middle West. While en route, he visited Denver, where the National Conference of Social Work, of which he is the only colored member of the Executive Board, held its annual meeting. From Denver Mr. Jones visited Los Angeles, where there is a thriving Urban League, supported by the Community Chest to the extent of $11,300, San Diego, San Francisco, Oakland, Portland and Seattle. He found a Negro population of 3,000 in Portland, of 4,000 in Seattle and San Francisco, Oakland 10,000 and San Diego 3,500—all fertile fields for Urban League work. Mr. Jones states that the league further plans to stimulate interest in the Urban League's plan of organization in these coast cities. In Minneapolis Mr. Jones addressed the students of the Department of Sociology of the University of Minnesota and in St. Paul spoke on the subject of "The Negro in the North" from Radio Station WCCO, maintained by the Washburn, Crosby Flour Mills in co-operation with the Chambers of Commerce of St. Paul and Minneapolis. Mr. Jones also addressed Urban League mass meetings in St. Paul and Minneapolis where the Minneapolis Urban League was formally launched with Mr. A. L. Harris, former "Fellow" of the league and teacher at the West Virginia Collegiate Institute, as Executive Secretary. The Urban League is now supported by community chests in twenty cities. There are twenty-nine Urban Leagues with offices and staffs, requiring the expenditure this year in the neighborhood of $400,000, including the budget of the national office. In speaking of the National Conference of Social Work, Mr. Jones states that in his opinion this organization is one of the most democratic national movements in America. In addition to having set speeches on the Negro by three colored persons, there were two important addresses by prominent white members of the conference, on the "Menace of Racial and Religious Intolerance." Throughout the conference there was woven into the fabric of the discussion a thread of racial interest which indicated that the more than 3,000 delegates there were thoroughly aroused to the importance of developing better relations in interracial contacts that our democratic institutions may be preserved. J. A. Harris, Atty., Starts Practice In another column of this issue will be found the announcement of James Ashworth Harris, who graduated from a law college last June and has hung out his shingle, being associated with W. T. Francis. Mr. Harris has been long and familiarly known to his many friends as "Ceasar," this name having been wished upon him when he was a small child and clinging tenaciously to him ever since, so much so in fact that few people are aware of his real Christian name. Mr. Harris by his geniality has made a host of friends, and we hope and predict for him a successful career. Wedding Rites Pronounced On Society Couple One of the prettiest wedding of the season was solemnized Tuesday night, July 14, when Miss Nora Covington became the bride of Mr. Arthur V. Hall. The ceremony took place at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. F. A. Scott, 325 N. Chatsworth, lifelong friends of the bride and with whom she resided. Rev. L. W. Harris, pastor of Pilgrim Baptist Church, of which both contracting parties are members, officiated. The parlor was beautifully decorated with banked flowers, red poppies, baby breath, Marguerites, roses, pink rosebuds, bachelor buttons, larkspur, petunias and palms. At 7:30 P. M. Mrs. Arthur P. Rhodes, accompanied by Mrs. Harriet Hall at the piano, sang "If Life Be a Dream" by H. T. Burleigh, followed by the wedding march from Lohengrin, played by Mrs. Hall as the wedding party descended the steps. The bride wore an imported Mechelin lace gown, ecru over pink, and carried a shower bouquet of Marchel Neil roses and white sweet peas. She was accompanied by the matron of honor, Mrs. Eunice Adams Glass, who wore pink crepe trimmed with silver lace, and carried a bouquet of Dorothy Perkins roses, white sweet peas and baby breath. The groom was escorted by Mr. Sid Cuthbert, his bosom friend, as best man. After the ceremony Mrs. Mae Black Mason sang D'Hardelot's "Because." The solos rendered by Mesdames Rhodes and Mason were wonderfully touching and effective. The wedding party presented a handsome picture as they stood to receive the congratulations and felicitations of the guests who attended the wedding reception, the bride in particular being one of the most beautiful women in the Twin Cities. The handsome residence was thronged with the elite of the Twin Cities from 8 until 11. Mrs. Scott, the hostess, was assisted by Mrs. Wm. Hood in receiving the guests, and the Junior Choir of Pilgrim, of which the groom is director, did the honors with the bounteous refreshments, and in showing the many expensive and useful presents. After the reception the newlyweds left for their country home at Round Lake. St. Paul to Celebrate Remodeling of Home The citizens of St. Paul will celebrate the remodeling of the Crispus Attucks Home August 9, 1925. The following citizens met at the office of the Bulletin-Appeal July 17: Mrs. Jennie Young, Mrs. Cora Grissom, Mrs. W. S. Archer, Mrs. E. Hixon, Mr. C. E. Jones, Mr. Ed Hatton, Mr. Owen Howell and Dr. Crump, to perfect a program to be held August 9 on the lawn of the Crispus Attucks Home. Owing to the fact that the Crispus Attucks Home is a growing institution which serves the need of our people, this committee feels that a memorial service of this kind will be very much in order. The Governor has been invited to deliver the speech for the dedication. WELL KNOWN NEWSPAPER MAN RETURNS HOME Mr. Roy Wilkins, who has been sojourning in the Twin Cities for the past two weeks; left for Kansas City, Mo., Wednesday evening, where he is connected with the Kansas City Call in an editorial capacity. While here he was a guest of his uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. S. S. Williams, 906 Gaultier St. Owing to an attack of rheumatism that affected his knee after his arrival, he was confined to his room the greater part of his stay here and unable to visit as many of his friends as he would have liked. Mr. Wilkins conducts a very readable column in the Kansas City Call, under the caption of "Talking It Over." ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, JULY 18, 1925 PIERCE BUTLER TO ASSUME NEWROLE Will Represent Geographical Society on Hostorical Expedition. Pierce Butler, associate justice of the United States supreme court, has assumed a new role. He will be the official representative of the National Geographic society on the Upper Missouri Historical expedition which left St. Paul Thursday night for Verendrye, Ft. Union and points in Montana. Justice Butler will deliver the main address at the unveiling of the monument erected at Martas pass to John F. Stevens, famed engineer and discoverer of the pass. These ceremonies will be held July 21. 20,000 Expected. More than 20,000 persons are expected to attend the congress of Indians to be held at Ft. Union, N. D., July 18 and 19. Indian tribes from all over the Northwest will be represented. Inquiries already are being received from New York and Eastern points asking for reservations on the special trains to be run to Verendrye and Ft. Union. The Great Northern today announced that it will supply extra sleeping cars to accommodate those intending to accompany the expedition. States Sponsor Plan. The expedition is being staged under the joint auspices of Gov. A. G. Sorlie, North Dakota; Gov. J. E. Erickson, Montana, and the historical societies of Montana, Minnesota and North and South Dakota. Lively Stag Is Held for Most Recent Benedict Another old Roman, Mr. Arthur V. Hall, was given a farewell surprise on the event of his coming wedding, when a group of friends staged a stag gathering at his summer cottage, "Hall Room," at Round Lake, Saturday evening. The evening was spent in playing cards, telling jokes and guessing as to how long A. V. had been a bachelor in these parts. After several games of whist and five hundred had been engaged in, those having charge of the affair, J. E. Murphy and S. L. Ransom, announced that lunch was ready, and the dogs began to bark, and spaghetti and rolls and lemonade were served to the guests amid the barking of the Hot Dogs. Toastmaster George W. James gave a few words of advice to the groom and told a few funny stories. He was followed by Dr. Turner and Hammond Turner. With a few remarks again from the toastmaster, the guests departed for the city in the wee sma' hours of the night. Those present were O. C. Hall, S. E. Hall, Owen Howell, George W. James, Dr. Valdo D. Turner, Dr. J. W. Crump, F. B. Simpson, Hammond Turner, W. B. Tandy, J. W. Carr, F. D. McCracken, W. V. Howard, James Combs, Timothy Howard, F. A. Scott, James Wilson, Wm. Hood, W. B. Walker, T. R. Morgan, George Mundell, Horace Craig, S. L. Ransom and James E. Murphy. Mill City Man Succumbs To Auto Accident Ray Cannon, 69 years old, 821 Fremont Ave. No., died Thursday afternoon at the General Hospital from injuries received in an auto crash July 14. Cannon was riding in a car driven by George Bailey, 1375 Prosperity Ave., when the auto collided with a Ford car driven by Sam Wenkelman, 2431 Fourth St. No. The accident occurred at Twenty-third Ave. No. and Grard. Will Conduct Revival Service A. H. Rev. Harris To Conduct Great Revival Service The stage is all set for the Harris evangelistic campaign to begin in Minneapolis on Bryant Avenue North July 19. It is expected that a large crowd will be in attendance since this is the first campaign of its kind ever conducted by the churches in the city of Minneapolis. Rev. Harris spoke last Sunday in many of the Minneapolis churches in interest of the coming meeting. A revival chorus was organized and thoroughly drilled in evangelistic songs. A pianist and cornetist have been engaged for this meeting, which will give an added touch to the song service. On Sixth Avenue North is a window beautifully decorated with scripture texts and splendid pictures of campaigns conducted elsewhere by Rev. Harris. It will be a treat to any one who is interested in good songs and song services to see Rev. Harris in action, for he is his own song leader and from what has been seen through the chorus rehearsals the campaign will be a hit in Minneapolis. The meeting will open each evening at 7:45 P. M. and those who expect to get a comfortable seat must come on time. Citizens of Oregon Town Deport Jape Toledo, Ore., July 17.—Citizens of Toledo overwhelmed white employees of the Pacific Spruce corporation mill here today, forced Japanese employees of the mill to pack their possessions and drove them in trucks and out of the country. After a short mass meeting in the streets, a crowd of 250 men and women marched on the mill quarters. White employees of the company, stationed to defend the Japanese, threatened the townsmen with guns, but no shots are reported to have been fired. The guns were taken from the guards and thrown into the bay. Discontent among the townspeople has existed since the Lumber company imported Japanese for certain work. Twelve or fifteen Japanese were driven across the county line. C. D. Johnson, president of the mill company, and other owners attempted to reason with the mob. Sheriff Horsfall and a deputy placed Martin Guermer, Charles A. Buck and U. S. Colver, alleged members of the mob, under arrest. EVOLUTIONPROVES GOD, SAYS PASTOR Evanston, Ill., Clergyman Issues Booklet Upholding Scientific Theory Under Fire. Chicago, July 17.—"Evolution, a Witness of God," is the title given a booklet issued by Rev. George Craig Stewart, D. D., L. H. D., a rector of St. Luke's Episcopal church, Evanson. Dr. Stewart is prominent nationally in the councils of his church and has been spoken of as a probable witness in the Scopes Trial. Bible Held Evolution. "I hold no static conception of the Bible, as I hold no static conception of life," says Dr. Stewart. "The Bible is itself a conspicuous evidence of the law of evolution. It was not created in a day, as the world was not created in a day. It has upon it the marks of the lower forms of man's primitive ideals, just as man bears upon him the physical marks of the lower forms from which this organism was evolved. "The universe is immensely larger, and God is immensely larger and greater than any Hebrew prophet ever dreamed, and we have to thank modern science for stretching out the heavens, enlarging the horizons of creation, and crowning God as creator with many and more manifold crowns. Throws Light on "How." "Evolution is not a thing. It is not a God. It is not a substitute for God. It never did anything. It never created anything. It has not added a featherweight of probability or reasonableness to materialism of atheism. There is nothing irreligious about evolution. It does not answer the 'who' or that 'what' of creation; it does, however, throw light upon the 'how' of creation. "Truth from whatever horizon it comes must be welcome, for truth in any way and every form is of God, is a revelation of God, is a word of God."

OHIO WOMAN REMEMBERS HOME FOR AGED IN WILL Cincinnati, Ohio, July 17.—In the will of Mrs. Maria Andrews disposing of an estate of $500,000, the Home for Aged Colored People was given four shares of American Seeding Machine Company stock. Rail Workers File Complaint Against Road Chicago, July 17.—Hundreds of colored freight handlers of the Southern Railway System Lines, affiliated with the National Association of Railway Mechanics, Helpers, Laborers and Freight Handlers, have filed complaint with the officials of the Southern Railway Co., in a matter of misapplication of wage rules effective May, 1921. The wages of these employees were arbitrarily reduced by the officials of the Southern Railway Co., by coercing them and forcing them to sign an agreement affecting a wage cut, at a large number of the smaller stations. The freight handlers receive 25c per hour. The fact is, there is no uniformity in the application of wages paid colored freight handlers in the Southern System. This matter will claim the attention of every railroad employee who is represented at the American Negro Labor Congress in Chicago, October 25. They will put up a strong front and contribute their moral and if necessary their financial support to this fight for justice and fair play. Race Paper Adopts Novel Method for Making Collections Omaha, Neb., July 17.—The New Era newspaper office has been a very busy place the past week; no busier than it should have been at other times, but especially busy during this period for the reason that the management saw fit, after many entreaties to its delinquent subscribers, to turn over to a collection agency a part of earned revenue that it was impossible to collect. Why this course was pursued is explained by the editor. "After repeated efforts by mail, telephone and personal suasion, our efforts have been in vain, until the business was given over to a company organized for the purpose of collecting such debts. The result has been that immediately we are snowed under with telephone and personal calls, every one of which carries the same old tune of ignorance of conditions, not receiving the paper, ordered same stopped, etc., but not one has been able to show that they have not willingly accepted a service for which they have refused to pay. We think we are perfectly within our rights in trying to collect what is due us and eleventh hour pleadings or threats shall not deter us in our efforts as the law of right is on our side. Those doing the loudest hollering are the ones who so readily find the New Era when they want their every movement made public news. Much more could be said about this matter, but for the present we will await developments." SHERIFF WAGENER'S HAT IS IN THE RING Sheriff John Wagener has announced that he will be a candidate to succeed himself at the coming fall election of county officers. Mr. Wagener has made an enviable record for himself that entitles him to favorable consideration by the electorate of Ramsey county since he assumed the office of shrievalty. His general popularity assures his re-election. The sheriff has always done the right thing by our group and we, in common with his many friends, are pleased to learn of his intention to continue in office. ST. PAUL SHOE WORKERS TO FROLIC The St. Paul Shoe Rebuilders' Association will hold its Seventh Annual Picnic at Phalen Park, Wednesday, July 22. All shops in the city will be closed on that date. Prize games will be held and various kinds of amusements for the "kiddies" and grown ups. This annual outing of the St. Paul Association has become a leading feature on account of its clean and reputable management. It is essentially a family affair. Friends are invited to share in the enjoyment. MINNEAPOLIS HISTORY SOCIETY Shop Every Week in the Bulletin-Appeal The Dependable Medium PRICE: FIVE CENTS N.A.A.C.P. ADOPTS RESOLUTIONS AT MEET IN DENVER Should Commemorate Birthdays of Leaders of Great Abolition Movement. New York, July 17.—The N. A. A. C. P. today made public the resolutions adopted at the Sixteenth Annual Conference in Denver, Colo. The resolutions in part were as follows: Aims of the Association. We have before us today five major alms: 1. The complete abolition of lynching and mob law. 2. Political freedom. 3. Industrial democracy. 4. Better education. 5. The absolute ending of segregation of all sorts based on race and color. Let no one think that lynching is stopped in America as long as one victim every month is publicly murdered and even burned by mobs. There is no political salvation for the Negro as long as he is owned body and soul by the Republican party or by any other party. A free, intelligent ballot is our one political salvation, and no place, honor or salary is worth its loss. We stretch again hands of fellowship and sympathy to all the working people of this land and the world. We would unite with them as equals and as fellows, striving through organization to make modern industry democratic rather than autocratic, to end monopoly and privilege in credit and capital and to make social welfare rather than individual wealth the end of all industry. We are deeply alarmed at the lack of common schools for our children and we see widespread effort to deny us high school training and to keep our talented youth out of colleges and professional schools. We believe in humanity; we believe in the social and civic equality of all men; we will fight to the bitter end every effort to separate, segregate and publicly humiliate human beings of any kind, because of race or color. We are fighting residential segregation in the last ditch before the Supreme Court of the United States. We are attacking disfranchisement in the South by bringing the white primary before the bar of national justice. The Bullard Slander. Resolved, That we note with disgust and resentment the attempt of General Robert Lee Bullard of Alabama and the United States Army to defame and discredit the men of the Ninety-second Division (colored) of the American Expeditionary Forces in France. A cloud of witnesses has arisen to overwhelm with denials this assailant of brave men and faithful soldiers; it is not necessary for us to add to a refutation so complete and signal. But we feel impelled to record our solemn protest against General Bullard's action as a hostile gesture, most improper in any army-officer, from the element in the South that is still unenlightened and still cave-dwelling, and as a gross, wanton insult to ten per cent of the people that pay General Bullard his wages and whose servant he is. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, assembled in its Sixteenth Annual Conference, respectfully reminds the President of the United States and its Secretary of State that the independent and sovereign republic of Haiti is still occupied, in defiance of international law by American troops. We beg leave to represent that all of the purposes alleged as excuses for this illegal occupation have been achieved. Under the military power of the United States the constitution of Haiti has been destroyed and a new one substituted. The American capital that sought advantages denied under the old constitution has made its desired investments under the new.

Anent our comment on Rondo street in our last issue we have received several communications of praise from well known citizens for the stand we have taken to improve conditions on that thoroughfare. One of our communicants informs us that in order to have a respectable street we should rid it of disreputable business. While this fact is true, the remedy is not within the province of the newspaper, but is a matter for the freeholder whose property rights are injured by reason of business of this nature being in close proximity thereto. The proper procedure is to first secure evidence that the business is illegal and present it with a complaint to the city authorities, demanding that such places be closed. Should the police, which is not at all likely, defer action in the matter, the complainant may swear out a warrant for the arrest of the owner of such business on the ground of its illegality. The charges in the complaint will be placed before the Grand Jury, who will return an indictment by the state. All of this procedure is beyond the ken of the newspaper and belongs to the citizen. However, we desire to have it known that any movement to abate wrong or improve the moral atmosphere, anywhere or at any time, will receive our whole-hearted support. The object sought by this paper is primarily to keep loafers from congregating on the corners of this street, where they indulge in disparaging remarks about women without escort, and in some instances offer open insult. This indecent obstruction of a public street affects the general public and is of concern to this newspaper. In opposing this shameful state of affairs we, as a newspaper, are acting within our right for the benefit of the entire community. We repeat our warning of last week to the effect that we will invoke the aid of the law should it become necessary. THE INTER-RACIAL MOVEMENT the trouble with the world today is causing among the nations of mankind. Not all, the Occidental is inclined to think. We do not understand our neighbor and desirable. The white race after 300 yean and his descendants knows but little characteristics than he did when the Most of the trouble with the world today is caused by a lack of understanding among the nations of mankind. Not understanding the Oriental, the Occidental is inclined to think he is inferior to himself. We do not understand our neighbor and we conclude that he is undesirable. The white race after 300 years of contact with the African and his descendants knows but little more of the latter's real characteristics than he did when the first cargo of slaves arrived in this country. The race that is successful becomes narrow-minded and prejudicial because of its dominance. Missionaries who have lived many years in the Orient and made a close and earnest study of its people have learned to respect their customs and found that they possessed virtues that surpassed in many respects their own. The neighbor we took a dislike to, after becoming more acquainted with, proves to be better than we judged, a likeable person with whom we are charmed. The white race fails to understand the colored race from the fact that it judges the latter from the standpoint of inferiority and apart from itself. The pigment of the colored race is sufficient cause for condemnation by the white. Our white friends, those who have really come to know and understand us, have learned that we are not different from themselves, but have learned much of a philosophy that is not possessed by the white race. In fact, their friendship has grown into admiration and respect. A race that can bear adversity, poverty, denial of rights, insults, proscription and the curses of the dominant race as well as the colored race has, and bear neither malice nor resentment in its heart against its oppressors have a virtue that is priceless. It is Christ-like, and if possessed by the white race would prevent it from exploitation and war. And yet no one dares to accuse this darker people of cowardice. They are as brave and fearless as any race on earth if forced to defensive measures. Let those who would understand the colored people learn their aspirations and hopes as well as they do their emotional rhythms and music. Let them know intimately the colored mind and heart according to its intellectual attainments. To do this may mean a sacrifice of time, patience and sympathy, but it will richly reward whoever gives it with a more intimate knowledge of those who live in the same world with you, but of whom you are accustomed to think are apart from yourself. The Inter-racial movement is bringing the two races together in civic and welfare matters and teaching a better understanding of each other. RACE OPPORTUNITIES IN THE NORTHWEST In another column of this paper we reprint an editorial that appeared in the Wall Street Journal on the industry of sheep raising. The great Northwest with its thousands of acres of cheap land offers a golden opportunity to the agriculturist of the race to earn big returns and become independent. The race has been a contributing factor in the production of cotton, one of the principal staples in this country for over 300 years. On the industry of the colored man must the looms and shuttles of the mills of New England rely for raw material that gives employment to its horde of workers. The treatment accorded the race by the South for the past sixty years has not been in keeping with the progress of civilization. In fact, instead of an improvement, race conditions have grown more oppressive with each succeeding year. Not only does the South refuse to pay a reasonable wage for labor, but it continues to reduce the standard of living to the lowest possible form for its dependent workers. It is deficient in school facilities and recognizes no right for the man of color that it is bound to respect. While we do not advocate a wholesale exodus from the South to urban centers, we do contend that gradual migration to the farm lands of the Northwest by those who may be able to command a few thousand dollars individually or collectively would prove beneficial. Only last week the dairy farmers of Minnesota—a co-operative association—decided to locate a central plant at Minneapolis to cost $300,000 for the distribution of $40,000,000 worth of products annually. This organization has a market at present for 500,000 pounds of butter, which will be increased just as soon as it has the facilities for handling the product. Prosperity follows the wake of the cow. We are all happy in the Northwest and have money. This is evidenced by the astuteness of Henry Ford, who, having expended $10,000,000 on his new plant at St. Paul, announces that he will add $6,000,000 more for an additional plant where he proposes to manufacture glass from the native sand of Minnesota. With the inducements the Northwest has to offer the colored race to share in its harvest and enjoy the rights and protection of citizenship, the man who takes advantage of the opportunity would never have cause for regret. By engaging in the sheep raising industry in this section, the colored man would in a few years become as indispensable a factor in the production of wool as he has been in the production of cotton. Pinkney Benton Stewart Pinchback was born May 10, 1837. His father was a prominent white planter in Holmes County, Miss. His mother, Eliza Stewart, was a free woman, although of mixed blood and known as an octoroon, having come to Mississippi from Virginia. It was on the return from a trip to Virginia that Pinckney was born en route. In 1846 he and an elder brother, Napoleon, were sent by their father to Cincinnati, Ohio, to attend school. They spent two years as students at the old Glimore High School, returning home in 1848. His father died shortly after his return to the plantation, and his mother and five children were sent to Cincinnati to reside by the administrator of his father's estate. At the tender age of twelve young Pinckney found it necessary to go to work and help his mother support the household. He obtained a position as cabin boy on a canal boat flying between Cincinnati and Toledo on the Miami Canal and also the Ft. Wayne and Toledo Canal. From 1854 to 1861 he followed steamboating on the Ohio and lower Mississippi rivers and had reached the dignity of a stewardship on the palatial steamers at the outbreak of the Civil War, which interrupted the business. On May 10, 1862, he abandoned the steamer "Alonzo Childs" at Yazoo City, Miss., on the Yazoo river, and ran the Confederate blockade, arriving at New Orleans two days afterward. August 18, 1862, he enlisted in the First Louisiana Volunteer infantry. Shortly after his enlistment he was detailed to assist in recruiting the Second Louisiana infantry. October 12, 1862, the Second regiment, Louisiana Native Guards, with Captain Pinchback in command of Company A, was mustered into the service of the United States. The Federal soldiery, rank and file, in the main, were as hostile as the worst Confederate against his appointment as captain. In his efforts to maintain the manhood and equality of rights of the Colored soldiery, Captain Pinchback was often placed in peril. The audacity of his boldness often excited admiration and many marvelled that he did not lose his life. His entire military career was characterized by fearlessness, and he fought with utter abandon for the cause of the Union until mustered out of service at the close of the war. On April 9, 1867, he began his political career by organizing the Fourth Ward Republican Club of New Orleans, La. From that time he filled a large place and many important positions. For years he was a member of the Louisiana Republican State Committee. May 22, 1867, Hon. William Pitt Kellogg, who at that time was Collector of the Port of New Orleans, tendered him the position of Inspector of Customs, which was declined. He was an influential member of the convention called for the purpose of establishing a constitution and civil government for the State of Louisiana. At the election to ratify the constitution April 17-18, 1868, he was elected a State Senator. The same year he was elected a delegate-at-large to the Republican National Convention held at Chicago May 10, 1868. H was appointed register of the land office at New Orleans in 1869 by General Grant, but refused to accept the office. December 25, 1870, he began the publication of the New Orleans Louisianaian, a weekly in the interest of the Colored race, and continued to run it for eleven years with distinguished credit to himself and advantage to the race. From March, 1871, to March, 1877, he served as Educational School Director of the City of New Orleans. He was nominated by the Republican State Convention for Governor of Louisiana, but in order to bring together two factions that divided the party, a compromise was made and he was elected to the United States Congress. In 1873 he was elected United States Senator. He occupied a unique place in southern politics during the days of reconstruction, and was known for his bravery and daring. Had the men of the race been less courageous during this historic period it is doubtful that we would today enjoy the advantages that are ours. These men fought to uphold the franchisement of citizenship that had so recently been bestowed upon the race. Among this galaxy of brave spirits none outshone Pinckney B. S. Pinchback. Mr. Pinchback, through fortunate investments in real estate, became a very wealthy man and made his home at Washington, D. C., where he died 1918. His declining years were made comfortable for him by his immediate nation, which had supported his part well and served the nation and the race with signal credit. Gleanings From Our Exchanges Gleanings From Our Exchanges Of all the industries of the United States, is there one we have less cause to be proud of than that of sheep-raising? South Africa, whose high yield is of so poor a soil that it can hardly sustain a sheep to the acre, is nevertheless, a large exporter of merino wool. We have still the great open spaces and yet we import two-fifths of the wool we consume. With some honorable exceptions our sheep raisers seem unable to make up their minds whether to raise wool or mutton, with the consequence that they raise an inferior variety of each. The benighted poverty of the information they are willing to furnish on the condition of their own trade has been a matter of comment in these columns. Our Agricultural Department does its best, but it has the industry against it, and our manufacturers seem little less short-sighted than the raisers of wool. And yet the industry is highly profitable elsewhere. Sheep can withstand a wide range of climate and will eat many varieties of vegetation which other animals will not touch. In process of time they can regenerate farm lands that have run down. A flock of sheep on poverty-stricken soil will, in time, make it arable. In Britain and France, where intensive culture is needed to feed large populations, there is still room for thousands of acres with carefully selected flocks, the Welsh and South Down varieties for their food superiority and many of the others for their excellence of their wool. The humiliating fact to us is that these countries take the business seriously while we are inclined to regard the sheep as a side product. It is true that our climate lacks the natural advantage of Yorkshire or Saxony in the weaving of woolen cloth. But most of our handicaps are our own. Although our wool growers are protected by a punishing tariff we only raise three hundred million pounds of the five hundred million pounds we consume. What seems to be needed is the capital necessary to secure the highest grades of wool-bearing sheep with the adoption of all available experience in choosing those best adapted to environment. Just as the stringy, tasteless stuff called mutton—New York's supply seems to come from anywhere except Vermont—is not fit to be compared with the chilled New Zealand or Australian product, so also is there no sense in breeding sheep of the scrub variety where the pedigree animal would produce six times the quantity, or at least in its quality, wool of six times the value. The trouble with our sheep industry is that we have never tried to do the thing well, except as concerns a few breeders, and they are rather in the regions east of Lake Champlain than in the wide open West, which we have fewer appeals to Congress if it kept its eyes wide open and kept its mouth. There is a great opportunity waiting for somebody, but, like other opportunities in a field of world-wide competition, it requires capital, intelligence, perserverance and the humility to learn from the experience of others—Wall Street Journal.

The Short Saturday Sermon The Bulletin-Appeal has arranged with the Undenominational Press Association whereby it will publish each week Saturday Short Sermons prepared by the clergy and also religious editorials from newspapers and other publications By Rev. Harry Adams Hersey Muncie, Ind. In a sermon on "Fear and Faith," Rev. Harry Adams Hersey, in Muncie, Ind., said that peace, prosperity, health, happiness and success of mankind do not depend finally upon economic, industrial or social conditions, or on any external fact or condition but upon an "inner" condition, a spiritual order, an attitude to life If in the inner life fear is dominant; that life is a failure; unhappiness is the prevailing mood, distress is common and sickness is frequent. If, on the other hand, faith is dominant, then the life is successful, happiness is the prevailing mood, and, if the faith is high enough and strong enough, even sickness and disease The Scopes Trial The extent to which the American people will go for a "thrill" and their inconsistency is evidenced by the "monkey business" and the course persued in the Scopes trial at Dayton, Tenn. The real object of the trial in the onset was to determine whether or not John T. Scopes, a teacher in the high school at Dayton, Tenn., had violated that provision of the statutes of the state of Tennessee which prohibits the teaching of the theory of evolution in that state. For that purpose Scopes was indicted. In the ordinary and orderly trial of one under indictment the desire is to ascertain whether or not the law has been violated as set forth in the indictment, but in this trial the desire appears to be to make it sensational and stray as far away from the real issue as possible. No intricate or technical points are to be decided under the indictment of Scopes. There are but two questions that can properly come before the court and jury for determination; (a) Did John Thomas Scopes teach the theory of evolution in violation of the statutes of the state of Tennessee? and (b) Is that statute in accord with the constitution of the United States? But the attempt is being made to have country jurors who know nothing about evolution listen to the testimony of a dozen or more college professors, some infidels, some agnostics, some atheists RAILROADING On the Pullman Company's roll of honor this month are the names of the following Twin Cities men: J. Cook, O. J. Walker, A. G. West, A. McWatt, A. Robinson, all of St. Paul, and R. C. Shane, Minneapolis, the latter being, however, a resident of St. Paul. One of the most popular Pullman Porters' Quartettes in the country is the St. Paul group of singers composed of L. E. Lee, Bert Brown, J. O'Neal and G. N. Bradley. St. Paul porters say they are the best in the country. Minneapolis porters will probably vehemently deny the above statement, for they admit with much pride that their quartette, with J. A. Waters, J. E. Jackson, T. Pemberton and E. A. Galloway, can't be beat. Frank Boyd, St. Paul, with the Pullman Company attended the industrial Relations meeting in Chicago recently. Many students spend their summers railroading. No more profitable method of making money to continue their studies is offered the collored student than that of working in the sleeping car, dining car, and other departments of the various railroad companies. All of the experienced railroaders are usually glad to assist the young men who spend their summer vacations in such service. Railroad men, this is your column. News and letters concerning the activities of railroad men and their business will be appreciated. The Northwest has a large family of substantial railroad men, who are doing things.

The real value of any system of philosophy or religion is its power to deliver us from fear and give us over to faith. . . . Fear is negative and destructive, born of a distrust of the universe. It invites disaster and disease; it lowers resistance. . . . Faith is positive and constructive. It is born of religion. . . . faith is the great message of both the Old and New Testaments. The finest fruitage of modern Christianity is in faith without fear. . . . The chief cause of the religious life today is not fear of what God is. Christianity is eliminating fear, including fear of death, once "king of terrors." It has given us the best age the world has known, because it is an age in which faith is conquering fear. Ud. Press Asst. and some Christians, but all of whom are scholars well grounded in zoology and biology and experts on the theory of evolution, decide that the theory of creation as taught in the Bible is wrong. If the attorneys for the state can resist the temptation to get in the limelight and will refuse to make a show and a farce of a serious undertaking, they will object to the introduction of any testimony tending to establish the right or wrong of the theory of evolution, and even a country judge will sustain that objection. No good can come from the "monkey business" indulged in at the trial of this case up to this time. The ultimate outcome of this case, no matter what testimony is offered, will be that Scopes has violated the statutes and must be fined, and that said statutes are not in violation of the constitution of the United States. This conclusion is obvious from the attitude of the court, the jurors, the Governor, the people of Dayton and of the state of Tennessee. They are outspoken and positive in their absolute belief in the Bible and they don't care who knows it. It does seem passing strange, however, that people who are so firmly grounded in their belief in one part of the Bible could be so out of harmony with that part of the Bible that teaches that out of one blood God created all men, and that all men are brothers be they white or black.

In view of the persistent and evidently concerted effort to discredit the leaders of the great Abolition movement that freed this country from the terrible blight and ineffable shame of slavery, it is the sense of this Conference that wherever and whenever possible, this Association should commemorate the birthdays and public services of those noble and unselfish men and women. DEATH-CLAIMS WIDELY KNOWN RACE JOURNALIST Guthrie, Okla., July 13.—Charles Stewart, nationally known Colored journalist, passed away at the Park Sanitarium suddenly today from an attack of the heart. Mr. Stewart suffered a breakdown in health while on a business trip in this state in the interest of the National Baptist Association, and was taken to the Park Sanitarium, this city, for treatment. He showed signs of early improvement, and while still confined to his bed, was able to dictate his weekly news-letter to the press. The attending physicians considered his recovery sufficient to permit him to leave this morning when preparations were made to the effect. Mr. Stewart in attempting to walk to the telephone suddenly suffered a collapse and fell to the floor. The end was immediate. He died before assistance could be rendered. The body was shipped to Chicago, where he resided with his family. Mr. Stewart began his newspaper career at Chicago as a reporter on one of the late Joseph Dunlap's evening dailies. He was an expert shorthand writer and an orator of ability. Abolitionista. 'ROUND THE "2" TOWNS Mrs. Mary Porter of Kansas City, Mo., is visiting Mrs. Ed.

San Antonio, Texas.—Nestling in the foothills of Starr county, lying smugly against the banks of the somber and treacherous Rio Grande, rubbing shoulders with the quiet and typically Mexican town, Rio Grande City, just midway between Brownsville and Laredo, is located one of the most dignified and stately of army posts—Port Ringgold, Texas. Chaplain R. W. Rogers, who prepared the history of this post for the United States Army Recruiting News, says that while having enjoyed a varied but quiet career, it nevertheless is considered a very strategic border post. Fort Ringgold was established when the Rio Grande was navigable, boats bringing the first detachment of men to Davis Landing which later was called Ringgold Barracks. In those early days the nearest railroad was at Laredo something more than 100 miles away, while now she boasts a railroad at Sam Fordyce, only 20 miles away. Camargo, Mex., six miles south of Fort Ringgold, was founded March 5, 1749, by Jose de Escandon. The first survey and map was made for the king of Spain in 1765. It shows a line running north 8,624 varas (33 1-8 inches) from the cross, the central point of operations in Camargo. This line then ran northeast including the Fort Ringgold reservation. With the withdrawal of Texas from Mexico and its admission to the United States, the original title changed over to the state. In the early 40's, H. Clay Davis, a restless young wanderer, drifted to that section of the country and purchased a large tract of land. He soon established a prosperous ranch and settled down to make his fortune. Capt. J. H. La Motte, First United States infantry, took a small detachment of soldiers up the Rio Grande to Davis Landing, arriving on October 26, 1848. Not until 1853 was the first lease made. A tract 400 yards square, surrounded by a brush fence, containing 38 acres was surveyed. The lease was signed by H. Clay Davis, owner of the land, and W. W. Chatman, representing the United States. Bandite Cross Border. Immediately following the annexation of Texas to the United States bandits began to cross from Mexico, killing, looting and burning at will. In repulsing one of these invasions on the battlefields of Palo Alto, an extensive prairie nine miles north of Brownsville, Maj. David Ringgold was killed May 8, 1846. Honoring Major Ringgold, the camp at Davis Landing was called Ringgold Barracks in 1849, and more recently designated as Fort Ringgold. In September, 1854, the second lease was made, and operated five years. During this period log huts were erected for the use of the troops. Early in 1859 the soldiers were ordered further down the river owing to the Cortina trouble. The old lease having expired during the absence of the troops, another lease was made upon their return. This one was to operate for ten years, granting the owner $600 per year. It further provided, the government had the privilege of buying the land for $28,000. Two years later the Civil war started and the federal troops were taken from the Ringgold barracks. Immediately after the war troops were again sent to that post, arriving in 1867. The property was held by lease until 1878, when it was purchased outright. In 1906, a brigade post was established at San Antonio. Fort Ringgold with other border posts was dismantled and abandoned. The property was turned over to the Department of the Interior. It was laid off in a town-site and about to be sold when border disturbances again took soldiers to Fort Ringgold. From 1911 to the present soldiers and National Guardmen have constantly been on watch there. However, no improvement was made until 1917, when the property was again turned back to the War department. In 1918, congress appropriated $250,000 for the improvement of the post and in the following years other appropriations have been sufficient to repair and improve the post until today it is one of the most attractive reservations on the border. Where Lee Lived. The most interesting building is the three-room frame cottage on the hill near the signal station. This building was used by Robert E. Lee, when he was in command there as a colonel just before the Civil war. The building is still in a perfect state of preservation. Many prominent and notable army men have seen service at Fort Ringgold. Two or three years before the Civil war Col. Robert L. Lee and Second Lieutenant Ulysses S. Grant were stationed there at the same time. It was a strange coincidence that two leaders of later opposing forces should have been in the same post at the same time. Other prominent officers who have seen service there are: Jefferson Davis, General McCullough, General Hood, Lieutenant Colonel Sedwitch, General Buell, General Bee, Admiral Semmes, and more recently, both Generals Pershing and Harbord, who served there as lieutenants. Troops which have been stationed there since the rehabilitation are, besides the National Guard: Third cavalry, Thirteenth cavalry, Twenty-eighth infantry; Second squadron, Thirteenth cavalry and at present the Second squadron of the Twelfth cavalry.
