AFRO-AMERICAN SUFFRAGE JUSTIFIED. WHITE MEN'S ASSAULTS ON WOMEN. SOME ANTHROPOLOGY FOR BEN TILLMAN. THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: 1- It aims to publish all the news possible. 2- It does so impartially, wasting no words. 3- Its correspondents are able and energetic. VOL. 19. NO. 40. (From the Boston Herald.) To the Editor of the Herald: In a letter published in the Herald March 11th, I attempted to show that the incorporation of impartial, or, as it is better known, Afro-American suffrage, in the organic law of the United States was not only an act of justice, but political necessity. It is true that the Dereral southern states, by secession, terrorism, and succeeded to a great ext Afro-Americans from when they have allowed have nullified their vote, stuffing, dishonest count fraudulent methods. You What would have occurred had military rule been established and maintained in the South until social conditions improved and both freedmen and white men were better fitted for self-government is now a matter of pure reflection. It is not the public sentiment North and South, and was necessarily abandoned. The disloyal attitude of the ex-rebels toward the federal government and their passionate determination to deny all civil and political rights by the debates and the acts of the provisional conventions and legislatures, made it impossible for Congress to restore exclusive political power to white men and the resuscitation of their government and existing social and political conditions is ever warranted, it is safe to assert that, that the reorganization of the rebel states been intrusted exclusively to white men, the resuscitation of their government and the practical re-enslavement of the Afro-American would have resulted. In that event the immense waste and destruction of property incident to the civil war, the devastation of a nation, the horrors of Anderssonville and Libby prisons, would have gone for naught. Let us say, rather, they would have stood for all time as the ghastly record of a naive an unholy renewal of the old Union only to be dissolved a second time, and not to be permanently renewed until the fundamental law was made to govern and protect impartially every citizen and to race, color or previous condition. The Afro-American was emancipated from slavery by the war. His enfranchisement was not a "mistake," as you and many others believe. It was the inevitable sequence to his enfranchisement and its necessary confirmation. Neither has it been a "failure" unless in the sense that all suffrage is a failure,—a proposition from which, were it under discussion, I should earnestly dissent. BASE CONDUCT OF A FATHER. Macon Man Behind the Bars on a Shameless Charge. Macon, Ga., Sept. 14.—Fourteen-year-old Pearl Blanche, a well-developed, attractive-faced girl with a wealth of golden hair, when the Bible country grand jury convenes, recite before that body a story telling of the shameful conduct of her father. Sheriff Westcott was sitting in his office when a grown son of Blanche entered—Blanche, it seems, has three children. Blanche, Jones county, from which county the elder Blanche moved to Macon with his wife, daughter and youngest son and asked for a private interview. The sheriff led the way to his private office and without any inquiry, a narrative like of which is rarely heard in a section of the country where morals prevail and where law is upheld. The younger Blanche went into details of the base conduct of his father. It was a story to be recited only before a visitor knew well. With the completion of the complaint Sheriff Westcott convinced of its truth and decided to act at once. Summoning Deputy Stephans to his office the sheriff instructed him to take the once and hold him until accusation panels could be obtained. The arrest was kept quiet for a short time, but when it became known in the section in which Blanche resided there was deep indignation and some decidedly caustic talk. For the mother and girl, however, only expressions of sorrow were heard; the women were heard their failure to have taught the matter to the attention of the neighborhood—Special to Atlanta Constitution. On Serious Charge William M. Marcott, who says he recently came here from Shreveport to enter the employ of an advertising agency, was arrested in a lodging SOME It is in no offensive sense that Senator Tillman may be said to know less about the Negro than he thinks he does. It is our hope to enlighten him on this point and bring him to a more shrinking estimate of what he thinks he knows and of what he knows he thinks. In an address before an Illinois audience last week the South Carolina statesman repeated his familiar remark that "God made the earth and Africa proves it." What it proposed to show is that God did no such thing; on the contrary, that Bent Tillman himself, according to the latest scientific theories, is probably dependent on mankind. If there is scientific authority for such a conclusion, it may be surmised that Senator Ben might feel somewhat frazzled, for he holds no answers to the questions he God did two distinct jobs when white and black men were made. The study of race origin has been emphasized in the book *Race Origin*, surely, not to mention race and mas- sage. THE APPEAL. It is true that the Democrats of several southern states, by a resort to persecution, terrorism, and murder, have succeeded to a great extent in keeping the South from allowing them when they have allowed them to vote, have nullified their votes by ballot-box stuffing, dishonest counting, and other fraudulent methods. You may call this Afro-American suffrage. Afro-American suffrage is a prostitution to criminal uses, the mildest of which would justify the disfranchisement of the guilty parties. Afro-American suffrage in the North is a success. In the South it is not fully successful. With white suffrage in that section, notwithstanding the brutal and senseless obstacles it has encountered, it has justified a hundred-fold the action of the statesmen who are responsible for the murder of a reference to that part of the political history of South Carolina pertinent to this subject, recorded in "Governor Chamberlain's Administration in South Carolina," and other histories of the recon- Under the authority of an act of Congress passed March 2, 1867, and supplemented by an act passed March 23, 1867, the male citizens of the state, not only the white men, but ever race, color or previous condition, were asked to vote for or against calling a convention for the purpose of framing a constitution and civil government. In October, 1867, a total of 12,472, of whom 46,882 were white and 80,550 were Afro-American. The vote was taken in the following November. Exactly 2,350 white men voted; 1,050 were black men; 300 convention; that is, about 90 per cent of the registered white voters sullenly stayed away from the polls, and of the remaining 10 per cent nearly one-half emphasized the importance of the Afro-American as a citizen by opposing the convention. Of those who voted for it a large number, probably a majority, were "Yankee carpet baggers," and of the Afro-American as a citizen by opposing the convention.

Birmingham, Ala., Sept. 19.—At 3 o'clock this morning Mrs. William Blackwelder, wife of the Bastard master, visited the Bastard home conducting a revival, was awakened by a crash of glass and saw a well-dressed white man enter her window. She screamed once, but a pistol was put in her face and death to self and children and outrage of her person. She gave the thief her purse, which he opened, and finding only $3 in it, disgust threw it at her head without touching the money. After a vain search for money he emptied a five-gallon can of oil oil, which he found in the house, on the floor. She gave Mrs. Blackwelder and three children with the revolver. When the oil ignited he left on a bicycle. Mrs. Blackwelder was barely able to get herself and children out of the building before it burned to the ground. A $5 reward was offered for the invader.

In so brief a space no adequate statement of the various theories that have had their day can be presented, and for present purposes no such statement is necessary. Ethnologists and anthropologists have developed their science along a new line which does not make color of skin and eyes, texture of the hair, habitat, or language the supreme tests of racial origins. Shem, Ham and Japhet no longer have the great varieties of human beings. Even the modern classification of Huxley, by which the color of the hair and eyes was made to determine the race of European peoples, has gone into decline in the 19th century. It is likely the more scientific test of race is the shape of the skull, and this furnishes two fundamental divisions, the long heads and the broad heads. By measurements of many thousands of skulls in various countries, the lead authors have established an entirely new classification of races and to indicate their habitats in both ancient and modern all such regenerated voters shall have voted on the question of holding such convention." Of the Afro-Americans 66,418, or about 15 percent, were solidly for the convention. Not a single Afro-American vote was recorded against it. Of the delegates chosen 34 were whites and 63 were Afro-Americans. In other words, 63 were Afro-Americans in their group with 66,418 Afro-Americans called a convention, were accorded over 35 per cent of the entire delegation. This generous allotment certainly does not suggest any conspiracy to secure Afro-Americans from participation. It is frequently said that the significantly small white vote for the convention was due to the disfranchisement of a large number of men by Congress. Let us examine this plea. It is true that the act of disfranchisement was very sweeping, but it is also true that every man could have had the full rights of citizenship restored to him at any time by the law. Such applications were frequently made, and so far as I am able to ascertain, not one of them was ever refused. By an amnesty act passed by Congress May 22, 1872, the disabilities of every one were annulled except in the case of a few leaders, and in the case of a convention was called, the number disfranchised in South Carolina was 8,244. Had all of these men been registered voters and voted for the convention, the total number of whites in favor of it would have been 10,594, or less than one hundred, if admitted that such an assumption is entirely unwarranted, for there is no reason to believe that have a small proportion of them would have sympathized with the Afro-Americans and carpet baggers or pursued any course different from the native whites, who either refused to vote or voted against the convention.* The convention was held and a new constitution framed which compares favorably with that of Massachusetts or any other state. It was adopted by a large majority vote at a popular election in April, 1868, all state officers to initiate its operation being appointed the same time. The majority polled 35.553, the minority polled 27.28, 289 votes for the rejection of the new constitution, but they were of no avail MINISTER IN STRIPES.

WHITE MAN ASSAULTS CHILD. Sheriff Protecting Alleged Criminal at Greenville, Ga. Greenville, C., Sept. 12.—Last night, in West Greenville, about sun-down, Robert Gunnelis, white, criminally assaulted a 4-year-old Negro girl in the yard where the girl was play- times. Thus it happens that to-day the most advanced scientists divide the inhabitants of Europe, which we have been studying for centuries, into three races—the Teutonic, the Alpine and the Mediterranean. As these are all either long-headed or broad-headed, speaking in averages, according to the most fundamental classification, it is obvious that some subsidiary test comes into play in esculpting the Alpine race. The Alpine race, which resides chiefly in central Europe in countries around the Alps, is predominantly broad-headed, while both the Teutonic and the Mediterranean races are predominantly long-headed. The scientific discipline of the Mediterranean races thereupon is based mainly upon color of skin, eyes and hair and the physical stature—the northern Europeans being predominantly blondes and large-sized, and the southern Europeans being modest and comparatively diminutive. In working out the origin of these three great races of Europe, conclu- against the 70,758 ballots in favor of it, of which it is safe to say 90 per cent were cast by Afro-Americans. The new state officers, most, if not all of whom were white men, took office July 9, 1868, and the first legislature assembled on the same day. The senate, then, included seven Democrat, were white men, and only nine Afro-Americans. This gave the whites a majority of 15. The house of representatives consisted of 124 members; 48 of them, including 14 Democrat, were white men and 78 were Afro-Americans—an Afro-Canan minority of 29%. A joint ballot Afro-Americans had a majority of 18.* Thus ended the first chapter in the history of impartial manhood suffrage in South Carolina. The ballot restored the right to vote, but failure for the purposes of reconstruction. Out of a registration of 46,832 only about five per cent for a constitutional convention! Does not this tell us why the South Carolina dom of Afro-American suffrage was completely vindicated. The first use made of it was to put South Carolina back into the place made vacant when the rebellion was ratified the rebellion. The southern confederacy was destroyed by force of arms in the hands of federal soldiers. The Union was restored by the force of the ballot in the hands of the loyal white people. Had the intelligent and educated white men of South Carolina loyalty accepted the invitation of Congress to aid in the formation of a new government, the record of the six years following the establishment of the institution might have made one of the brightest pages in the history of the state, but they refused. They either sulked or actively opposed every effort to accomplish a reconstruction that did not recognize the old fetish of state rights and restrict the Afro-American to social mobility. The government they could easily have won and retained the confidence of the Afro-American, but by harsh, cruel and contemptuous treatment they taught him to fear and distrust them. Easily and naturally, very many of the freedmen adopted the standard of political morality set for them by the government, and scrupulous white men who entered the political field.

The Alpine or broad-headed race is supposed to have entered Europe from Asia and have cut like a wedge through the primitive inhabitants of the region. The primitive races of Europe were long-headed, as appears from the skulls found in many prehistoric graves dating from the stone age. It is believed that the present Teutonic and Mediterranean races are the survival of that primitivism, and the evidence in two by the broad-heads from the East; and that the blondness of the Teutonic peoples, as well as their exceptional stature, which now make them appear so different from the Mediterranean race, has been deemed "having been acquired" according to Prof. Ripley, in the relative isolation of Scandinavia through the modifying influences of from 1888 to 1874 was composed of honest and dishonest men of both races. Some of the whites were from the North and others were of the South, and the latter were prevailed, and for a few years extravagant expenditure, bribery, corruption and robbery were the rule rather than the exception. During the four years' administration of Gov. R. K. Scott the funded debt increased, and the importance of importance had been begun or completed. The increase largely represented theft, profit current expenditures, and, as a consequence, oppressive taxation. The succeeding administration of Gov. F. J. Moses, Jr., is said to have been a native of South Carolina and was known to be a thief. His election was opposed by the Republican bolters, by Hon. Reuben Tomlinson, a Philadelphia Quaker and as honest a man as such. He was a native of Quakerism. Here was another opportunity for the native whites to help redeem the state, but such their hatred of the Republican carpet bagger that they openly said they "preferred a native thief to an honest Yankee." Tomlinson received 25,000 In 1873, during the Moses administration, the public funded debt, amounting to $17,445,000, was divided into two parts; $11,480,000, called valid, was scaled 50 per cent upon the ground of a legal obligation to have "put on the market without any authority of law and to be 'absolutely null and void.' Apparently, public sentiment, without regard to race or party, approved this measure, is unnecessary to give an account here of the corruption under what was known as Afro-American rule down to 1874 inclusive. As has been shown, the whites had a majority in the Senate and a large majority in the house. The corruption was shared by whites and blacks. The whites, yet not blacks, were the more guilty. it is manifestly unfair to ascribe this political degradation to Afro-American suffrage and not to admit that white suffrage was fully as responsible. In my judgment it was in part due to the disloyal failure to vote in the 1873 election. The state that enabled scoundrels to obtain political control for a time and FOR BRUTAL CRIMES. Russell Bolles Is Being Taken from Westminster, B. C., to Denver Jennifer B. White, to Russell Bell who is being brought from Westminster, B. C., to stand trial in Denver for the murder of Harold Fridborn, was a huckster in this city when the ermes of which he stands accented on his life. On the evening of Dec. 31, 1901, Florence Fridborn, then 16 years old, went to a pond in North Denver to skate, accompanied by her brother Jennifer B. White, on their skies they were approached by a man, who pretended to search the boy's clothes for money and then turned to assault the girl. Harold, who was in the knocked down car, was told to the aid of his sister, who was fighting desperately. Thereupon the man struck the boy on the head with an axe, the blow killing him. The murderer then brutally assaults the girl beside her dead brother. Bolles left the city within a month after the crime was committed. After long search he was arrested at Westminster, B. C., through the efforts of Town Marshal Willis, of Sullivan, Ind., who accompanied him. Bolles was Westminster, where she yesterday positively identified the prisoner as her assailant and her brother's murder. A special from Vancouver says that Bolles bears a scar on his thumb where Miss Fridborn says she bit him when he assaulted her. In British Columbia the male was Bolles. Willis positively identified him as Bolles, whom he had known all his life. YOUNG GIRL ASSAULTED. Unknown Man Attacks Daughter of Buffalo Jones at Yellowstone. Helena, Mont. Sept. 23. A report just received from Yellowstone Park says that the 14-year-old daughter of environment and artificial selection." The more Tillmann part of the question is now presented: Where did those primitive long-skilled inhabitants of Europe, who gave to us out of their ancestry, ever long-skilled "Anglo-Saxons," come from? What was their ancestry? The answer is that probably they came from Africa. Follow the path of the long heads, and it will take you down the Iberian peninsula, where the ancestry of the land of the black races, who are overwhelmingly long-skilled. Senator Tillman shall not escape us, and, consequently, it is desirable to quote directly our authority for the claim that as an "Anglo-Saxon" he is directly descended from the German nation whose attention is directed to the chapter on European origins in Prof. Kipley's "The Races of Europe," and particularly to the following passages: "It would seem as if if the earliest race in Europe must have been very ancient." "The European aborigines of the stone are not Mongoloid like the to practice fraud only less disgraceful to our American civilization than the slave-driver's whip and the human auction block that had so recently been abolished. Daniel H. Chamberlain succeeded Moses as governor in December, 1874. He was a Republican carpet bagger, and had held the office of attorney, and was a member of the government. With the advent of Gov. Chamberlain a new legislature was elected. The Democratic vote was much larger than at any previous election. The House had 124 members, the Senate had 116, the Democrats, were white, and 61 were Afro-Americans, the latter all Republicans; a white majority of two. The Senate had 33 members. Of these 17, including 11 Democrats, were whites and 16 were blacks. Of the remaining of one. Thus, it will be seen that the two races were about equally represented in both branches. In point of intelligence and ability the Afro-American leaders were quite equal and often party. Gov. Chamberlain was a man of splendid ability, of absolute integrity and great resolution. In his inaugural address, referring to the reform efforts of his party, in particular campaign, he appealed to the Legislature to redeem them and promised his hearty co-operation. From the very beginning and down to the end of his administration, the corrupt wing of his party posed him, but it was generally defeated, sometimes by his use of the veto power, and at others by the majority votes of the Legislature. During his tenure, the party warmly indored by the entire Democratic press of the state. The Charleston News and Courier, which then had a larger circulation and greater or influence than perhaps all of the other newspapers, was his especial champion. In the month of July, 1876, it published a series of very long articles, ten in number, in which, in glowing terms, it named specifically the many reforms that had been proposed. The list was, in part, as follows: The contingent funds of the executive department, legislative expenses, legislative contingent expenses, cost of services, officers, tax levy for the current year, Buffalo Jones was assaulted by an unknown man at Mammoth Hot springs. "Buffalo" Jones is the caretaker of government bison in the park. He left the camp when he went to attend the herd of buffalo. Upon returning home he he found his daughter in an unconscious condition, as the result of severe treatment at the hands of an unknown man, who had attempted to assault her. She was attended by Fort Worth police. It is believed that when she regains consciousness she will be able to give some description of her assailant. On the discovery of the crime, both troops of cavalry were called out, and made a thorough search of the entire surrounding country. Two men were found at the resting place, who is direct evidence connecting them with the crime. PENSACOLA. Serious Charge against Stevedore.

The increasing long-headedness and extremaity of the African race led us * ** to derive it from some type parent to that of the African Negro." (Page 474). "It is certain that, after the partial occupation of western Europe by a dolichocephalic Africanoid type in the dolichocephalic population, the headed race of decidedly Africanities took place." (Page 470). There are numerous indications today that the primitive inhabitants of Europe were Africans. Thus in Sardinia, which has been ethnologically different from the rest of the population betrays to-day strongly African characteristics, such as the flattened nose and thick lips. It is an old saying that Africa begins with the Pyrenees; and Prof. Ripley asserts that the inhabitants of the Spanish mainland are "rarely important anthropological respects with the peoples inhabiting Africa north of the Sahara from the red (ta $2.40 PER YEAR.

The character of the officers of the government appointed by the executive has been improved. The tax laws have been amended so as to secure substantial uniformity and equality in the assessment of property for taxation. The settlement of the public debt has been maintained unchanged, and taken with the public creditor, so far as dependent upon the executive and legislative action, has been fully kept. Gov. Chamberlain richly deserved all the praise awarded him. The Legislature, however, was deserved by the corrupt and demagogical as any of its predecessors." This charge cannot be sustained. Unquestionably the legislative leaders of the corrupt wing of the Republican scrupulous men, and had a powerful influence over the rank and file. This was especially true of some of the Aro-American leaders, but by the confession of the News and Courier "back door" of the Democratic Democrats and stanch Republicans. In its list of the misdeeds of this Legislature there is not one charge of robbery. Most of them were deeds of omission rather than commissioning a crime in a party sense worse than crimes." Under the intelligent, honest and courageous leadership of Gov. Chamberlain the political atmosphere of South Carolina was fast being cleared. The governor, a former American suffrage was being rapidly vindicated. The Bourbon or "straight-out" section of the Democratic party was confounded by the prospect of a successful and prosperous administration of political affairs by the Republican party, composed as it was so largely of Afro-American voters, and popular indignation over the appointment by the Legislature to judicial office of two very irrelevant men, one an Afro-American named Whipper, and the other, ex-Gov.

But it is not necessary to go farther. Having shown, on scientific authority, that the Mediterranean and Teutonic races are probably descended from an early African-old type, we have carried the position that Stewart Williams himself if he is "Anglo-Saxon," is in a real sense, descended in no inconsiderable degree from the "nigger." The Senator is in error, finally, insaying that "God made a Negro inferior to a white man." What God did was to make a man; the various kinds of men have been the product of natural, earthly conditions. It has so happened that the man who entered the developed world in Africa, the man left in Africa, particularly that part of tropical Africa isolated from the rest of the world by the desert of Sahara and the oceans. A scientific writer named Marshall has the truth in his statement that "the white man and the Negro have been differentiation of selection and environment." Give the black race a chance, Mr. Tillman, and it will leap forward. Springfield Republican.

The pages of history: fail to. show “a more horrible scheme than the at tempts made in recent years by a num: der of Cattcasians all over the countrs to prove to the world that the Atro ‘Americans are a race of rapists. ‘There is every reason to belleve that tt Is @ carefully concocted plan tc make Afro-Americans appear a a 10 ‘of brates by charging them with ‘crimes of which they are often not ‘guilty. ‘That members of the race commit assaults on women cannot-be dented, ‘but the percentage of crimes against ‘women is greater for the Caucasian than for the Afro-American. Tt must ‘be remembered that many black ‘mon ‘who are charged with asault with ‘Intent to commit rape are really guilty a nothing moro than, simplg’ assault ‘certain sections of the country Finsolent”. Negroes have / been: ac: Se eer ae hed. In many cases white men have black- ened their faces, assaulted women and then poor black men have been charged with the crime and have been murdered by mobs. The Chicago Inter-Ocean has shown by, the court records that white men Im’ Chicago, last year, committed twice as many rapes as were charged to the entire Afro-American race. There are 1,038 conviets in Sing-Sing prison, New York. Of these 61 whites td 2 Afro-Americans were sentenced for rape; that Is 6 per cent of the whies and but 1 per cent ot the Aivo-Americans were guilty of assaults on women. Senator McEnery of Louisiana said recently in the Independent that “few white men are gullty of rape.” The attention of the senator and others. ot hhis race who have misrepresented the ‘Afro-American is called to the first page of this Issue of THE APPEAL. ‘The matter presented ought to prove instructive reading. The items aré taken from the dally press and wheré no eredit is given.they are associated press despatehes. ‘The headlines ar¢ About the same as they were printed in the New Orleans Times-Democrat New Orleans Picayune, St. Loui Globe Democrat, Atlanta Journal and other papers, There was no attemp' to give the stories "scare heads” a: is almost invariably the case wher an Afro-American is charged wit} crime. ‘Recently in Minneapolis a black mat was accused of abducting a whit girl, and although physicians testifie that the girl had not been outrage there was a great hue and cry abou the matter. ‘The black man Is nov serving a twenty-five year sentenc for his crime. The next week a whit. man actually raped a girl of thirtee years, yet the papers scarcely notice: the ease and there was no excitemen whatever, and the incident is abou forgotten. ‘The worst story in the list of crime committed by Caucasian brutes come from North Carolina, where a whit man has been sentenced to death fo raping his own nine-year-old daughter ‘The evidence presented proves tha white men are guilty of crimes agains women and children and during th past month they have been especiall | detive in the nefarious work. During the slave holders’ rebellio black slaves guarded the wives an children of the men who were figh ing to rivet their chains more firmly yet there is no record that a whit Woman or child was ever assaulted. "The Afro-American is neither ange nor devil; he is a plain human bein Just like the Caucasian; he has hi virtues and his vices just like th Caucasian he 1s no worse, no bette than his white brother, though a rec ord of all the assaults in the countr would show that white men commi more offenses proportionately agains jvomen than black men are guilty of ‘ue HAS MADE GOOD.

Betore the war, there were not hall ‘a dozen Afro-American surgeons and physicians even among the free Afro Americans of the North; now there fare thousands commanding incomes ‘of from $1,000 to $10,000 per annum. One of these a surgeon who lives i Chicago was the first to sew up the heart of a living man. ‘The Afro ‘American surgeon and physician has made good. ‘An Afro-American artist has paint ed pictures so well that several o! his productions have been purchased by the French government and nov hang in the Louvre.

Raymond's pictures have been of the ‘most degraded class of the race in the black belt. He made no attempt td ‘give to the world the story of the in Gependent farmers, the thrifty mechan fes, the well-to-do business and. pro. fessional men of the race. Raymond ‘was in Charleston but he failed to set the many beautiful homes, nicely fur nished, presided over by educated and refined mothers—homes in which th¢ “problem” has already been solved. In Atlanta, Raymond interviewed Prof Du Bois, but he was described as au ‘intellectual abnormality,” when as matter of fact there are in the South hundreds, yes thousands, of Afro ‘Americans who will measure well with Prof, Du Bois in education and cul ture. Like the average Caucasian |"Raymond” regards Washington, Du Bols, Council and a few others as peo ple apart from the masses, and so they ‘are, but there are thousands of Afro ‘American teachers, preachers, doctors lawyers and plain men of business wh¢ fare equal to the leaders in general in telligence, education and culture. ‘Some of Raymond's statements ar¢ ridiculous, for instance, he wrote: "Ror every Booker Washington ther¢ are 500,000 debased Negroes.” Ac cording’ to that, as there are about {10,000,000 Afro-Americans in the coun try, only, 20 are nét debased. “Raymiond” ought to cut out the word “darky” and look up a few moré of the Intelligent, well-to-do Afro americans of the South. MR. NANCE OF ATLANTA. ‘Wade H. Nance, who claimed to be a leading merchant of Atlanta, Ga. went to the police headquarters at Washington, D. C., recently with a sensational story “of having been @rugged and robbed of $80 in money, a watch which was an heirloom, and 3 diamond ring worth $250. Of course fhe said the robbery was committed by fa Negro, After having been fleeced. he said he was placed on a train and ejected in an unconscious condition at Alexandria, @x., across the river from Washington, where he was taken to a hospital. It now turns out that Wade was 6 plain ar. Detectives wero assigned to the case, and soon learned that Nance came with a woman named Mrs. San derson, and there was reason to be Meve that If Nance had any money ‘or property, the woman had taken i from him for safekeeping while he was drinking, The chief of police therefore wired to AtJanta making in quiries about the woman. A reply [came saying there was absolutely noth. ing in Nance’s story. When Mrs. San derson left him he had nothing of value but his ticket to Atlanta and never had a diamond ring. ‘Nance still had his ticket and when he found the police were going to in vestigate his story he quietly took his departure. “The story has a lesson. When Nance told his lie the papers came out with black head lines—one paper had it: NEGRO DRUGS ATLANTA MAN. [Prominent Atlanta Merchant Robbed of His Cash and Diamond Ring by Vinkt Cotered Nenie. It is but one of many cases in which the’ senvational papers of the countrs injure ail Afro-Americans by printing in flaming headiines accounts of erimes wnich were never committed.

While, the white people generally Im this “land of the free and home of the brave” seem to have gone stark, staring mad on thelr Idea of draw: ing the color line, it is quite refresh ing to note the action ofgthe Presb. terlan church on that .Abject. The committee on territorial limits of pres byterles appointed by the last gen eral assembly has decided that the word “Negro”. will not be used as a qualification of any.of the church laws or regulations. By this action the 15,000 Afro-American members of the denomination will not be set apart as a separate organization. This is the proper sort of Christian spirit which should prevail among CHRIST. TANS of. all denominations, for o one blood God created all mankind. “Then Peter opened his mouth and said, of-a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth Him, and Worketh righteousness, is accepted wih Him” Acts, X34, 35. ‘The Nashville Americans says: ‘There will be no repeal of the Fit teenth Amendment, and if its repeal were accomplished ‘a reduction of the South's representation would follow But there are many Democrats wh¢ hold that even that “would not be toc ‘great a price for the South to pay for the elimination of the Negro as a po jlitieal factor.” Or in other words many Southerners would be willing t¢ give up some of their power in Con Eress it the Afro-American could b¢ Feduced to slavery, for that’s just what the repeal of the Fifteentt ‘Amendment would mean.

AFRO-AMERICAN SUFFRAGE JUS ; TIFIED. Shiinaiin en Pik Pa to make party nominations for the in- coming state government with the hope of recovering control of the state Fortunately for the Democrats, the presidential election was at hand, and they had the support of their northern allies, who regarded the electoral vote of South Carolina as necessary to the election of Samuel J. Tilden, the Dem: ceratle candidate for the Presidency. ‘They were vigorously opposed. by the conservative Democrats, led by the Charleston ‘News and Courier, who pleaded. with thom’ in Dehalf of ‘the honor and the best interests of the state not to oppose but to support Mr. Chiamberlain, whose nomination for a second term’ by the Republicans. was assured. ‘The Bourbon strength. com: dined with that of the national Demo: leratic party, overpowered the conser%- atives, and Wade Hampton was nom hated for the Governorehip. Unequal to the occasion, the conservatives, in- cluding the powerful News and Cour- ier, fell into line, and maintained thetr party allegiance. Race hatred, fraud, Brutality, terrorism and murder were revived.’ Alluding: to the campaign Gov. Chamberlain sald: “I denounce the conduct of the recent election on the part of our political opponents in this state as avast brutal outrage. Fraud, proscription, tntimidation In ali forms, violence—ranging ¢hrough ail ite degrees up to wanton murder— were its effective methods.” ‘Notwithstanding the infamous meth- ods of the Democrats, they were un- able to overcome entirely the majority ff 80,000, that under honest and peace- ful conditions belonged to the Repub ean party, and the state remained in the Republican column. The elec- toral. vote. went, to Rutherford B. Hayes, the Republican candidate for the presidency, and the gubernatorial yote to Gov. Chamberlain, ‘The Dem- oerats, however, claimed the election, and. the bitter contest that, followed resulted in a compromise. The elec- toral vote was given to Hayes. Gov.

At all events, soon after the Inauguration of President Hayes, all federal support of Chamberlain ‘was withdrawn, He ‘was compelled "to yield, and Wade Hampton was duly recognized as Governor. It was under. stood that Hampton had 20,000 armed men behind him, eager to overthrow the Republican state government the moment it was deserted by the newly elected Republican President.* ‘Thus ended the second chapter of the history of Afro-American or. fm- partial suffrage in South Carolina.

Rose Melville, that talented and artistic comedienne, in her unique characterization of the awkward country girl "Sis Hopkins," with her pigtails, fancy stockings and her mania for borrowing things, will be the attraction at the Grand following the engagement of "Across the Pacific." Theatre goers would complain if Sis failed to pay them a visit each season, and the bookings would not be complete if this attraction was not among them. This will be the fifth year of this successful comedy drama and it has been presented all over the United States and Canada to immense business. The story of Sis is too well known and no extended account is necessary. Suffice it to say that the laughter commences from the moment Sis Hopkins makes her appearance climbing over the fence to borrow all her neighbors household goods, and the laughter never lags until the curtain drops. The play abounds in strong drama and dramatic qualities. The presentation of the play this season will be the largest and best that has ever been given. A new scenic dress has been provided and the company selected this year is by all odds the most expensive one in the history of the play. The engagement is for the entire week with the usual Wednesday and Saturday matines. --- First-Class Laundry Work. Best In Every Respect. 509-511 Second Ave. 509-511 Second Ave., So., - Minneapolis.

Ward admitted his guilt and was given two years by Judge Simpson, and a jury convicted Evans. This just goes to show that human nature is just the same no matter the color of the skin.

IT REACHES THE SPOT. Why suffer when a 50 cent tube may cure you. Used and recommended by physicians. A booklet with each tube. If your druggist don't have it send 50 cents by mail. To whom it may concern: I most heartily recommend "Hoyt's Sure Cure for Piles" to all who suffer from this annoying disease. I suffered with Piles for years, and tried various remedies, none of which afforded more than temporary relief. About six months ago I procured one tube of Hoyt's Sure Cure and used it according to directions two weeks, at the end of which time the ulcers disappeared and have not since returned. I believe the cure is complete. D. S. MIRES. "We, a jury composed of men who know cigar values, find that the plaintiff, the Judge Harlan Cigar, is entitled to recover 10 cents from every smoker."

Invitations were sent out last Tuesday evening to a few friends to play whist at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. M. Scott, 3146 Cottage Grove Ave. When the small circle of friends had assembled however, a number was announced that had not previously appeared on the program. The whist players were informed that there was to be a wedding, and that the contracting parties were Miss Imogene D. Scott, daughter of the host and hostess, and Mr. Addison Robinson. The wedding being an informal affair the bride and groom were unattended. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. F. Ford, of Denver, Colo. Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Cook, of Elgin, Ill., and Mrs. Cobb, Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Bell, Mrs. George Gaines, Miss Russell, Miss D. Hogget, Messrs. Robert Perry, L. Ward, W. Sloan, L. Richardson and Mr. Davis. Congratulations were tendered the newly married couple after which an elegant lunch was served.
