The Taft's speech accepting Republican nomination for Presidency. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1909 INCONSISTENT AMERICANS A number of eminent Americans recently cabled the Russian premier bespeaking "a fair trial, open and public, in accordance with the time-honored principles of justice in all nations" for two distinguished Russian prisoners on the eve of being brought to bar in that country on political charges. Commenting on the foregoing, the Evening Star suggests that the Russian premier might reply as follows: "Gentlemen: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your cable expressing solicitude for two Russian prisoners soon to go on trial on political charges. You ask that the proceedings be conducted in accordance with the time-honored principles of justice in all nations. Scarcely had I finished reading your favor than I Secretary of the Treasury, Who in His Annual Report Promises Reform of Customs Service, Urges Federal Economy and Advocates Civil Pensions.

"The total estimates for 1911. in: 1910." was informed that a human being in one of the oldest states of your Union—Georgia, I think, is the name—had but the day before been burned at the stake in public by a mob of infuriated citizens. Are you citizens of that commonwealth? Or, if not, have you any influence with the authorities there? In either case may I respectfully ask you to exert yourselves in behalf of law and order in Georgia? Civilization, like charity, begins at home. Our conditions in Russia have been disturbed for some time, but we have been trying to improve them. In America you have enjoyed over a hundred years of popular rule. Your body politic is thoroughly organized. You have courts, and officers to enforce their writs. What, therefore, explains such a horror as comes to me from your shores? We have some severe forms of punishment in Russia, but nothing approaching torture and death by fire at the stake, and I beg of you, in the name of justice and humanity, to bring your country in this matter within the pale of civilization!" "FAITHFULNESS AND DEVOTION." The Charleston News and Courier says: "The Negro women of the present day are entirely too frivolous to do anything well. They do not care. Old house servants are few and far between. The modern servant does not stay in one place for a long period. She gets tired and quits, or she wishes a month or two to rest, or something happens. She has no stability, and she is daily proving that the old characteristics of the race—faithfulness and devotion—are passing away. No people in the world save the Southern people would endure the worthlessness of these Negro women." THE APPEAL would remark that the "Negro women of the present day" are working for money and not upon the "faithfulness and devotion" theory. They wish to be paid enough for their labor to live comfortably, but they are almost invariably forced to 1910 M. B. HON. FRANK H. HITCHCOCK, Postmaster General of the United States. including the naval building program, are $64,132,197," the report says. "Excluding the increase on the Panama canal estimates the total estimates for 1911 show a decrease of $57,244,494 under the appropriations of 1910. Including the increase in the canal estimates, the total estimates for 1911 show a decrease of $42,818,968 under the appropriations for 1910." labor for a mere pittance, scarcely enough to keep breath in their bodies. Again, the best Afro-Americans refuse to allow their daughters to go out to domestic service, as it exposes them to the advances of dissipated young and old white men and often results in their degradation. The "Negro woman of the present day" very often has a good home of her own to which she can return rather than work for nothing, and she does not stay at one place if she is mistreated. And, even among her own race, the "white folks' kitchen girl" usually belongs to the lowest stratum of society. All WHITE Women Pardoned Alleging that he does not believe penitentiaries were intended for women, Gov. Campbell of Texas has decided to pardon Mrs. Agnes Goode, sentenced for 25 years in the penitentiary for killing her husband. When Mrs. Goode is released the last white woman in the Texas penitentiaries will have been given her freedom. Five others have been pardoned recently. There are a few Afro-American women in the Texas penitentiaries, but the fact that the governor has not pardoned them proves he is insecure. Texas is a state in which Afro-Americans are ruthlessly robbed of their rights and it is a common thing to read accounts of the burning of a BLACK human being at the stake by WHITE fiends, who dance around in savage glee, so it is not strange that race lines are drawn by the governor of so lawless a commonwealth, in dealing with criminals. FORCED CONFESSIONS The Washington Post says: "Another of the law's invasions of the rights of the citizen and an infasions of the rights of the citizen and an infamous perversion of justice is the latitude which is allowed peace ```markdown ``` --- officers in forcing confessions or ca- jolling damaging admissions from prisoners who are yet to be indicted and tried. This practice has become a gross abuse." Especially is this true in the case of "outrages" on females in the South and consequent lynchings. Whenever we hear of a lynching down South we are also told of a confession by the victim. It is almost needless to say that the confessions are nearly always forced and really amount to nothing. The practice is too gross an abuse to be longer tolerated. CONTRARY TO THE SPIRIT OF JESUS. THE APPEAL very rarely concedes with the religious teachings of Prof. Moster of Chicago University, but falls to see that he is at all wrong in the following: "There simply has got to be more truth and more life in our churches or the really religious people themselves will repudiate the churches. Men's eyes are at last open and they see how much that is false, dead, untrue in churchdom, how much of current christendom is contrary to the spirit of Jesus. Living religion of living men will endure it no longer." The fact is well known that for a man to participate in a lynching, or in the white slave traffic or in defrauding the government, does not interfere in the slightest degree with his church relationships. It is equally true that were an Afro- Amreican to simply enter into many of the churches and take a seat, the act would be resented by the membership as a most unwarranted intrusion and even the poor white man would be a most unwelcome visitor at many of them. "THE GRAND OLD COMMON WEALTH." The governor of Virginia is boasting largely of the fact that his state last year expended nearly a quarter of a million for good roads; a fact which is simply an evidence that the old Dominion is woefully behind the times. For instance, Maryland, for the same period expended, or provided for expending the respectable sum of $5,000,000, or more than twenty times as much, and her roads were incomparably better than those of Virginia. Any sensible man can readily see that the miserable condition of Virginia roads would prevent intelligent farmers from having any desire to lo Copyright BOLL STIMMU S. LOUIS COPYRIGHT BULLETIN S. LOUIS Secretary of Commerce and Labor Issues The need of a new departmental building adequate to the requirements of its many bureaus and its wide and varied interests; the abolition of all salaries below $800 a year, and the provision of a retirement fund for faithful but superannuated clerks, are some of the striking features of Secretary Nagel's annual report on the Department of Commerce and Labor. cate in such a section of the country. The South is, however, so wrapped up in its old traditions and so unprogressive that Gabriel's trumpet would scarcely avail to arouse the sleepy citizens from their somnolent condition. If Virginia ever learns to devote as much attention to constructing good roads as she does to framing jim-crow laws, she will make a wonderful advance in civilization. "Gov. Ha from soda t splits to loo gins to loo cleanest of lahoma Time That's no error when of a "bunch Secretary The Afro-Americans of Mississippi administered a handsome rebuke to Vardaman, the mongrel who was once governor of the state, and whose first official act was to veto the bill for the normal school for colored youth at Holly Springs, thereby closing the institution. Led by Bishop Cottrell, they went to work and established the best equipped institution for colored youth in the entire South in that very same town of Holly Springs and shortly had an attendance of 5,000 students. So the result of the old reprobate to injure the Afro-American population of the state was that they now have an excellent plant, managed by themselves, entirely free from debt --- A GREAT VICTORY. and enjoying a great degree of prosperity. The foregoing statements are facts but for some unaccountable reason the great victory of the Afro-Americans over the old governor has attracted but little attention. MRS. ATHERTON IN CHICAGO. Chicago journalists are somewhat worked up because Mrs. Gertrude Atherton, after a seven days' sojourn in the city, could discover no love for art or beautiful things. What could any one learn of Chicago in seven days? But Mrs. Atherton seems to think that in that time she could learn all that was worth knowing, and wrote a lot of offensive nonsense about a city of which she knew nothing. That is, however, her usual rule. She has written a lot of tommyrot about the Afto-Americans, a race of people she has always endeavored to injure and misrepresent in her writings. THE APPEAI places no confidence in the rumor that Senator Tillman's staying out of the limelight is due to an attack of hookworm. There isn't a hookworm in Dixie that would dare to tackle the man with the pitchfork. The big bugs have so arranged matters that the testimony in divorce cases is now sealed up and not revealed to the public. The law permits this out of respect for the "high social standing" of certain persons, when publication would endanger public morals. Are not the courts becoming a little too complaisant? Several prominent Jews have appeared before the Immigration Commission for the purpose of protesting against the use of the word "Hebrew" in the reports of that body. They claim that the title is a misnomer. However the title is by no means so ridiculous as the use of the word "Negro" to describe a class of people who are very far from being Negroes in the real sense of the word. Rabbi Simon proposes to boycott all plays in which the Jew is caricatured and thus made the performing of such plays unremunerative. His fight is against the box office and is based upon the correct principle. In time the Afro-American may do the same thing, but at present he seems to take a special delight in performances which burlesque him. 1890 bor Issues His Annual Report. Declaring that, notwithstanding the great activities in every branch of the department, the appropriations during the last four years for the entire department have been increased only 3.2 per cent, the report adds: "If the appropriations are to be held at the present figures, it will become necessary to make a dollar to go farther than it has." "Gov. Haskell has been lambasted from soda to hock, from string beans to hell splits, and we'll swear it begins to look like he was about the cleanest of the bunch," says the Oklahoma Times. That's not saying much for the governor when you remember what kind of a "bunch" it is. Secretary Wilson does not look for meat prices to decrease very soon, which is an opinion likely to spoil Christmas for a great many people. Christmas turkeys have about become obsolete for the average family, but many cherished hopes that they could indulge in some kind of meat. THE APPEAL hopes that the death of King Leopold, of Belgium, will make a change in the awful condition of things which have existed in the Congo Free State. There can be no doubt of the fact that that unfortunate country was a hell upon earth. Gov. Deneen's action in refusing to reinstate the sheriff who failed to prevent the Cairo lynching deserved great commendation. Cairo, Springfield and Danville have almost brought Illinois down to the level of Texas. --- ```markdown ``` An unaccented Christian Institution, devoted especially to advanced education and English High School courses with industrial Training.

SPOILED CARD SHARK'S GAME How "Pat" Sheedy, Famous Gambler, Fooled Trickster Who Thought He Had Easy Money. The greatest delight of "Pat" Sheedy, America's premier gambler, according to Henry Stewart of the Stewart-Peck Sand Company, was to "double cross" the crooked card sharks. Mr. Stewart and Sheedy were old friends. "Sheedy once strolled into a tough gambling resort in the west, where he was not known, and stood watching the games." Mr. Stewart relates. "One of the dealers was 'spiiling' to several countrymen and had about convinced them to take a chance at his game. "I'll bet you two to one that I can shuffle the deck and cut the ace of hearts the first time," he announced. "I'll take $50 of that if you'll let me shuffle the cards," Pat said. "The dealer agreed and the money was staked. The countrymen also made small bets. "Are you satisfied? the dealer asked when the cards were shuffled. 'The proposition is that I am to cut the ace of hearts the first cut.' "Everyone agreed. Then the dealer—he was a tough one—whipped out a big hunting knife and slashed the deck in two. "But he didn't take the money. Sheedy had palmed the ace of hearts while shuffling the cards."

The capture of snakes is simple and comparatively free from danger. In the great swamps of India they are caught in the early morning, when neck, thus holding it fast until they can put it away safely. Another method is to surround a spot known to be full of snakes with nets during the dry season and set the underbrush on fire. The snakes rush for safety in all directions and fall in great numbers into the nets. This method is often used to catch the biggest species of snakes. Hagenbeck states that many specimens of such monsters received by him from Calcutta bear marks of burning. The giant snakes of Borneo fall a prey to the native hunters after they have gorged themselves to such an extent on food that they can scarcely move at all. Nets are then thrown over them and they are delivered to Hagenbeck's agents in baskets made of bamboo. Some snake hunters of, India rely almost entirely on their sense of smell for ferreting out their victims. These hunters set out in the cold of the morning, knowing, more or less, where the holes are in which the snakes live. By means of their keen sense of smell they can tell whether a snake is at home. They then dig it out, and, as it is half frozen still, succeed easily in imprisoning it in their baskets. Among the snakes often captured in this way are pythons. A WOMAN'S LOGIC. Of Course She Couldn't Pay the Bet if the Horse Lost. "Some women," said John W. Gates, "not all women, but some of them, are very poor speculators, very poor gamblers. A young friend of mine has a pretty cousin. He was going to the races the oter day, and she called him up on the telephone and asked him to put $10 on Forest King for her. "Very well, he said, 'I'll do it if you pay me back. "Of course, I'll pay you back you horrid thing!" exclaimed his cosin. "All right, said he. 'You didn't the last time.' "Oh, well," she said, 'last time the horse didn't win, you know.' A Putting Tip From St. Andrews. A man on his first visit to St. Andrews was much impressed by the high standard of efficiency which he saw displayed on the greens by those with whom he played. He studied the actions of these heroes to see if he could discover any common feature in their methods. At last he saw light. He observed that they all hold the left hand more under the club when putting than they did when driving. From this he deduced a rule of conduct—"see the finger nails of the left hand when addressed to the ball." For the rest of his stay, and it may be for some time afterward, his own putting improved considerably. Tabriz. Tabriz, that unhappy Persian two of daily revolution, is one of those cities that flourished ages before authentic history began to be written, and has lived long enough to bury her ancient glories. There are no buildings in the place older than the reign of the Moguls, and yet it was probably at one time a place of as high importance as Babylon and Bagdad. Its name was anciently Taurus, the mountain city. The plains around the city are said to furnish the nearest resemblance in their summer luxury to paradise that earth can offer. The Fagan Twins. Martin Fagan, a well-known personage in the neighborhood of Tenth and Clearfield streets, was arraigned before a magistrate recently at the Germantown police station charged with being a habitual drunkard. "Judge," exclaimed Fagan, when he heard of the charge preferred against him, "there is an injustice being committed. I surely am a bit intoxicated now, but not all the time." "I sent you to the house of correction several days ago," explained the magistrate, "and I really don't know how you got out." "You are mistaken, judge, that was my twin brother John. We both look so much alike that I am often mistaken for him, so, you see, I have to stand for his wrongs." The magistrate sent Martin up to keep John company.—Philadelphia Times.
