The Appeal

A VILLAGE STREET: CHAMPERY ON A COUNTRY ROAD NEAR CHAMPERY CHAMPERY AND THE DENTS BLANCHES FEMININE COSTUME IN CHAMPERY VOL. 26. NO. 29. CHAMBERY AND THE DENTS BLANCHES THE DENTS DU MIDI A PROPOS of all the present talk about woman suffrage, let us take a glance at the inhabitants of a small village in Switzerland, or, more accurately, the dwellers on the mountain slopes about Champery, in the canton of Valais, that sequestered and charming hamlet which lies contentedly at the feet of its famous neighbor, the Dent du Midi. There the sturdy peasant women have solved the "equal rights" matter to their own satisfaction in the question. Votes were never a fact, but trousers were, and have been calmly appropriated for their own use; so it is as man's equal in freedom of movement and attire, at least, that the feminine half of the community tend their herds, cut hay on the almost perpendicular hillsides, and clamper up and down the stony and tortuous paths leading to their mountain homes. If Americans are as yet in almost total ignorance of this little spot, successfully hidden for years at the extreme end of the lovely Val d'Illez, it is by no means undiscovered, and, owing to the recent foreign invasion, these fair traitors to the conventional skirt have become as shy as the proverbial chamois, and one must seek them upon their own heights during the summer season, when the new electric tramway which has sup- tor in the question, but trousers were, and have been calmly appropriated for their own use; so it is as man's equal in freedom of movement and attire, at least, that the feminine half of the community tend their herds, cut hay on the almost perpendicular hillsides, and clamber up and down the stony and tortuous paths leading to their mountain homes. If Americans are as yet in almost total ignorance of this little spot, successfully hidden for years at the extreme end of the lovely Val d'Illiez, it is by no means undiscovered, and, owing to the recent foreign invasion, these fair traitors to the conventional skirt have become as shy as the proverbial chamois, and one must seek them upon their own heights during the summer season, when the new electric tramway which has supplanted the old-time diligence renders this village almost too accessible to the ever-growing tourist army. En route from Italy, one leaves the Simplon line at Saint Maurice, rides for a few minutes in a shuttle train of doubtful comfort, and, arriving at Monthey, takes the tram, which immediately commences an ascent of the fertile valley. Through vineyard and chestnut grove, over roaring mountain streams and past various hamlets, the little train wends its way, ever upward. Leaving the heat of the plain below, one gradually emerges into an atmosphere of crystalline coolness. Champery, the end of the railway and the last village in the valley, lies 3,500 feet above the sea. Except its bracing air, one is unconscious of the altitude, as all about tower the infinitely greater heights of the Dents du Midi and the Dents Blanches, their white "teeth" so dazzling in the sunlight that one welcomes the almost ever present curtain of cloud which vells their brightness. Some 300 feet below the village the rapid and noisy Vieze, home of that delectable fish, the "ombre", rushes down the bed of the valley from its source in the Col de Coux, another mountain, at whose summit lies the frontier of Savoy and a custom-house, and from whence one may continue one's walk in France to Chamonix. The country abounds in walks and climbs to suit the most expert or inexperienced mountaineer. First and foremost of these is the ascent of the Dent du Midi, more than 10,000 feet in height. Of its seven teeth, the Hante Cime is most popular and least dangerous. Parties usually leave Champery in the afternoon sun at THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS.MINN.SATURDAY.JULY 16,1910. LE CALVAIRE Bonaveau, snatch a few hours of sleep, and are off before dawn in order to reach the summit for a far-reaching panorama of the sun-kissed Alps awaking from their sleep. It was at this little chalet of Bonaveau that one party, finding their hopes of an ascent shattered by torential rain, resolved to play bridge and amuse themselves as best they could until the wee sma' hours; but "English as she is spoke" and accompanying laughter evidently jarred upon the propletor's nerves, for in the morning their modest bill was embellished with the strange item: "Extra: Pour bruit fait pendant la nuit (for noise made during the night), 5 francs." To return to the village, its one street lined by chalets with gayly flowering window-boxes and neat gardens, hotels, pensions, and little shops, let us occupy ourselves with the cosmopolitan thong that wanders back and forth on any August day. The Hotel Dent du Midi, Champery's largest and most modern hostelry, is the best point of vantage for such a survey. Choosing a comfortable chair from beneath its striped awnings, we call a waitress wearing one of the typical scarlet kerchiefs on her head to bring us tea. While waiting we may listen to the orchestra and marvel at the many countries of the world represented in this small corner of it. The English and French element predominate, and as yet the American is in the minority, but electricity, steam heat and all the commodities of modern life that especially recommend a place to his luxury-loving heart are fast doing away with its former simplicity. What a field in which to study human nature, national characteristics, and that intangible something which stains indelibly the types of each country for its own.

Near Death on Battlefield Many Times—Swims Through Shark-Infested Water to Safety on American Steamer. Mexico City—The career of Sir Porfirio Dlaz, who has just been reelected president of Mexico, forms a veritable romance of adventure and thrilling escapes from death. Perhaps his narrowest escape from his enemies, however, was in 1875, after he had led a futile insurrection against the government. At that time Dlaz was running for the presidency against Juarez. The people wanted Dlaz, the politicians Juarez, and Dlaz finally took the field with his supporters, determined to fight it out. He was defeated, driven from Mexico, and took refuge in New Orleans. He then communicated with his friends, and decided to return and continue the fight. With this end in view he took passage secretly on the City of Havana under the name of "Dr. the la Doza." Unfortunately, when the vessel reached Tampico a large body of troops were taken on board. As it happened, the very man who had recently defeated Diaz and his men was among them. It is assumed that Diaz thought he was about to be captured. At all events, he slipped off his clothes, rushed from his stateroom and plunged overboard, beginning a plucky swim, through bad, sharky water, for some American vessels lying in the distance. A boat was lowered, and the unfortunate general was rescued and brought back to the steamer. He was a striking figure, and as he stepped on the gangway some of the President Diaz. men thought they recognized Diaz and shouted his name. But luckily a woman who was a friend of the generals's saw the situation and, seizing a sheet from the stateroom, rushed down the gangway and threw the sheet over his head, so that he passed through the crowd and so reached his stateroom. Capture seemed almost certain. The soldiers who had seen Diaz come aboard had reported to the colonel, who prompted looked into the matter and found that the supposed Diaz had come aboard as "Dr. de la Boza." He at once went to the captain and demanded the surrender of Diaz. The colonel could not speak English, and the captain could not speak Spanish, so Mr. Coney, the purser, was sent for. Now, Mr. Coney, who, for the important part he played in this exciting episode, was afterward rewarded by the grateful Diaz with the post of consul general of Mexico at San Francisco, had seen Diaz in the stateroom, and, in response to a Masonic signal of distress which Diaz made, had decided to aid the fugitive to his utmost—Coney himself being a Mason. Therefore, when, having translated the colonel's demand to the captain, the latter said he could not deliver up the supposed Diaz, but if the colonel liked he could place sentries at the door so that Diaz could not escape. Then as the sentry went reeling to leeward, Coney suddenly opened the door of the stateroom, and Diaz walked swiftly forward and safely reached Coney's storeroom. Here he was at once put in a clothes press. Each night Coney took Diaz out of his wardrobe in order that he might exercise his cramped limbs, putting him in his own bed and locking him up in the wardrobe again early in the morning. Thus did Diaz elude the suspicious colonel and he was still in the clothes press when the vessel reached Vera Cruz. Here Coney communicated with General Enriquez, and Diaz, with his face besmeared with coal dust and disguised as a laborer, was smuggled ashore. Diaz was obliged to skulk through the forests from Vera Cruz until he had rallied his forces, which he did with such success that the next battle placed him in the Mexican "white house."

Kiram has preserved a unique personal- The Sultan of Sulu. ity in his reeking island jungles. He has a tendency to do unexpected things, as when he wanted to make Alice Roosevelt sultana of Sulu. The sultan of Sulu is a young man, but he gives the impression of knowing what he is about and just what he wants. His head is rather large and well-shaped. His skin is the color of old copper that has been polished. His eyes are well apart, but he has a trick of drooping the lids that makes him look sleepy and indifferent. He has a good, firm jaw and chin, with a medium-sized straight nose. To keep him out of mischief, Kiram has been permitted to continue believing himself immensely powerful. When America took over the Philippines, there was an agreement with the ruler of the Sulus. It was modeled on the old Spanish treaty and guaranteed the Moros all the usual rites and religious freedom. It provided that the American flag be flown over the islands; that America might occupy any place it chose for military purposes; that America would continue the Sultan's pay for ruling his people.

HISTORICAL SOCIETY. $2.40 PER YEAR BRITAIN'S FIRST BOY BRITAIN'S FIRST BOY Joins Ship and Takes Place as "Cadet Edward." Eldest Son of King George, Aged Sixteen Years, Is Highly Popular—Much Like Other English Lads. London.—Prince Edward of Wales, who has been "the first boy of England" for 16 years, has gone to join his ship at Dartmouth and take his place as Cadet Edward of Wales. During the funeral ceremonies of his grandfather, King Edward, he was a prominent figure not only because he is heir to the throne but because he is highly popular. A typical Anglo-Saxon lad is Prince Edward, now called the duke of Cornwall, and soon to be formally made the prince of Wales. He is fair hatred, blue eyed and sturdy of limb; the picture of health, strength and good temper. From babyhood he has been popular. His doings and sayings have been chronicled, and half the mothers of England put their sons into white sailor suits like those chosen by the princess of Wales for her son. Yet admiration does not seem to have spoiled him at all. He is still a frank, simple English boy with a bright smile, a pleasant manner and an infectious laugh. Not only is Prince Eddie a public favorite but he is a hero in his own family. His three small brothers and one sister look forward to his holidays as festive occasions. His father and mother, King George and Queen Mary, although they are rather strict with their children as a rule, often relax discipline for their oldest son and are as proud of him as any middle class parents of their first-born. Even at school Prince Edward is popular, and one has to be more than a prince to be a favorite at an English school. One has to be an all-round expert at games and sports, a generous, open-handed good fellow with plenty of courage and a love of fair play. Prince Edward has always been a sportsman. He could ride his pony when he was five and on his seventh Prince Edward of Wales. birthday King Edward gave him a bicycle. Swimming lessons at the Bath club came next, and a little later cricket, football and boxing, and now he is one of the first class cross-country runners of England. Before he was ten he had handed over his ordinary nursery toys to his younger brothers and was giving all the time he could spare from lessons and exercises to a fleet of model battleships which had been given him by his father. It was the time of the Russian-Japanese war, and the young prince with model guns, forts and maps of the scene of the campaign was following each move and fighting mimic battles with his fleet. Later King George, anxious to encourage his son's love of the sea, gave him a large model brig. This is kept at Virginia water in charge of an old sailor. A story is told of his early days at Osborne which seems to prove that the prince is not without commercial instincts. He had written home to his mother for extra pocket money, which she refused to send, and so he wrote a long letter to his grandmother begging her to help him out. Queen Alexandra wrote a long letter reproving him for extravagance. To her surprise Prince Edward, who hates letter writing like a normal boy, immediately answered *Lett* letter and asked many questions. She answered them, only to receive another letter from her grandson. At last the truth came out that the prince was selling the queen's autograph letters to his schoolmates for money to spend at the tuckshop. In his lessons Prince Edward does not shine. If he were an ordinary lad he would be called backward, except in the few branches of study which he likes. Love of animals is a trait of all the Wales children, as they were known till very recently. HAVE YOU READ THE APPEAL? ST. PAUL OFFICE No. 236 Union Block, 4th & Cedar J. G.

The Fourth of July already dear to the American heart as the date of the signing of the Declaration of Independence is now rendered doubly and trebly glorious as the date of the second great event in American history, the meeting of the two great and illustrious chieftains, their excellencies, Jack Johnson and Jim Jeffries. These great Americans met at Reno, Nevada, stripped, girded the American flag about their loins and forthwith proceeded to pummel each other in the most refined and scientific manner. They continued this pleasing exchange of smashers, rib-roasters and uppercuts to the extent of fifteen rounds when the white man was knocked out and the black man proclaimed victor. It will be readily seen that this untoward event has complicated the race problem to an amazing extent and henceforth it is to be anticipated that A statement issued by the Treasury Department shows that the receipts from customs during the fiscal year 1910 exceeded those of any other year in the history of the country. The customs receipts for the fiscal year 1909-19-0 were $333,043,800. The greater part of the year has been under the Payne tariff law. The receipts for the last nine years were as follows: 1902, $254,444,708.10; 1903, $284,470.581; 1904, $261,274,564.81; 1905, $261,856.91; 1906, $300,251,877.77; 1907, $322,233,362.70; 1908, $286,113,130.29; 1909, $300,711,33.98; 1910, $333,043,800.00. the famous "burly Negro" will be more terrific than ever. As a natural result there will be a notable increase in the number of lynchings down in Dixie and the lies sent out by the Associated Press and the various news gathering combinations will be more flagrantly picturesque than ever.

It justifies and holds together more baseness, cruelty and abomina- THE APPEAL is opposed to prize fighting and does not cheer very much for either victor or loser, but, under the existing circumstances, when the alleged Caucasian Christians of the country are endeavoring to have the fight pictures put under a ban, not for any moral reason, but because a black man won, it will suspend the rules and say: "Bully for Jack Johnson." President Diaz of Mexico has refused to accept the life-membership tendered him by the International Negro-ating Sunday School Congress. growing Ustinay School Congress. President Dhizz says: "When a people like the Americans draw the color line on black people and I accept membership, with my republic full of colored people, who are in our army, manning our railroads and engaged in all the natural industries, I would be unfit to be the head of the nation. The black man has rights and privileges in Mexico which the world must respect and I will not soil my hands by accepting membership in an association which would degrade my fellowman. I trust that the American Negro will not weaken, but will fight for his rights until the end." A PUZZLED SOUTHERN PAPER. A Southern newspaper is puzzled be- cause it finds no "colored language" in Jack Johnson's talks, and wonders if the talks are not "edited." That question may be easily answered. First, there is no "colored language," "dis" and "dar" and "dem" have been eliminated from the dialect of the Afro-American and he speaks about as correctly as his white neighbor.

I am convinced myself that there is no more evil thing in this present world than Race Prejudice; none at all. I write deliberately—it is the worst single thing in life now.

His language is far more correct than a large majority of the Southern Democrats. HOW TO STAND HIGH IN THE SOUTH. Every once in a while, in the South, some incident occurs which tends to show that a certain class of Afro-Americans can stand very well in the estimation of the white citizens. In Alabama recently, more than one thousand persons of the "best families" attended the funeral of an old body servant. School boys clamored for places as pall-bearers. The South is always ready to pay honor to a faithful servant WHEN HE IS DEAD. In this case we presume Bob had no higher ambition than to be a servant and no desire to vote. No doubt he was a "good nigger" of the halcyon days of slavery. Well, that brilliant achievement of the Democratic brethren, the Oklahoma guarantee law has burst up like Darius Green's flying machine and still more like everything that outfit has done since the war. "I told you so." The bank commissioner thinks that he can fry the fat out of the stockholders of the defunctismus bank to the amount of some $200,000, but that remains to be seen. But it was good fun while it lasted. 1920 administration the Postal Deficit Has 2000 in Nine Months, an Unprece- tory of the Department. - G. Wells in the N. Y. Independent. A. B. A WHITE SKIN NO EVIDENCE OF MORALITY. The immorality of the Afro-American is a favorite topic for discussion by moralists of other races; and indeed is the cause assigned as the necessity for grandfather clauses and jim crow laws. The most ardent advocate for the denounced race must admit that a few of the statements are true, but when comparison is made between the races, we at once enter upon debatable ground and there is room for argument. A vast number of proofs can be adducted to show that a white skin is by no means an evidence of high moral attainments: one of which we shall at once produce. It requires the vast number of 270,000 prostitutes to supply the demand in the three cities of London, Berlin and Paris. The average life of a prostitute is five years. Out of the foregoing number 90,000 attempt suicide and one-fourth of the latter number succeed. At the end of five years the number must be recruited and mainly on account of the poverty of the working classes, the supply is readily obtained. The girl who was raised in luxury, and has been reduced to poverty rarely escapes being the victim of those circumstances. A host of professional traffickers is continually on the alert to supply the market and many well-intentioned girls are actually entrapped and enmeshed as to be forced to yield. Not a few parents are base enough to consent to the degradation of their offspring, for the sake of filthy lucre. Not only this, but the notorious prevalence of divorce in the highest ranks of society, is an evidence of easy virtue not much better than actual public prostitutes. We need not specify cases—the woods are full of them. If the testimony of travelers is worthy of credit, prostitution is the vice of civilization. ABRAHAM A Committee of Fifty Is Considering Memorial in W THE PERVERSE CAUCASIAN ED ITORS. It is a remarkable fact that the Caucasian editors persist in speaking of the Afro-Americans of the United States as if they were as wild, ignorant and uncultivated as the tribes of the jungles of Africa. For instances the Washington Herald says: "The Negro does not know by inheritance or early training how to care for himself, either as to temperature or sanitation. He still needs supervision and instruction, even compulsory, in such affairs of self-preservation." The foregoing is true in reference to a large fraction of the race, just as it is true of a very large number of both races. So far as the North is concerned, there is very little difference in the intelligence or mode of living of members of the two races, if we compare individuals of about equal means of living. It would be hard to find, in any part of the United States, any Afro-Americans who need supervision and instruction as to sanitary matters so badly as the miners in the coal regions of Pennsylvania. According to the testimony of credible witnesses, the miners live in a condition of utter disregard of the rules of decency or hygiene. The case of the Afro-American is not a peculiar one; as a general thing he compares, class by class, very well with his white neighbors. SEPARATE Y. M. C. A'S There may be some excuse for the separate Young Men's Christian Association in the South, where the line between the races is distinctly drawn, but in the North there is no justification for their existence. The Afro-Americans who are urging the establishment of separate Y. M. C. A.'s are making a grave mistake. They should consider the question from every angle before using their influence in favor of a movement which will be farreaching in its ef- fects and may come back sometime in the shape of discriminating and repressive laws and finally in the withdrawal of all civil and political rights from the race. There are in the United States a few individuals who have proved themselves to be true Christians, but the alleged Caucasian Christian Church in this country justified slavery and has never taken a decided stand for the rights of men. The Y. M. C. A. people in many Northern communities are endeavoring to segregate the Afro-American, thus proving that in one respect the Association is not a Christian organization. If Afro-Americans think that an organization similar to the Y. M. C. A. is needed in any particular community, they should form one and call it by some other name. Under no circumstances should they have any connection with the Central Y. M. C. A., which as a rule in cities where there are colored branches, admits to the central organization members from all branches except the colored branch. To become a branch of an organization which discriminates is to admit inferiority. That Afro-Americans should become parties to the segregation plan is inconceivable, yet many are doing so. THE APPEAL believes that these members of the race, who are in many instances, intelligent people, are misguided and after they have carefully considered the matter and see the perils the plan entails will about face and refuse to segregate themselves. Better call a halt now. Unless segregation is stopped it will continue to grow and it is not impossible that within ten years the jimcrow car will roll into Chicago. Men and women of the race, consider well your actions! LINCOLN the Advisability of Building a Lincoln washington City. THE LYING SOUTHERN EDITOR. One of the severest tests of the ingenuity of the Southern editor is the lying rendered necessary by every case of lynching that occurs. He knows that he is depended upon to present the thing in a plausible manner for the benefit of the world at large and to make it appear that the crime committed was of such appalling atrocity that the highly respectable people who avenged it were entirely justifiable, that the evidence was completely satisfactory and that the affair was conducted with dignity and good taste. By diligent and frequent practice, the Southern editor has became perfect in his role and can do the necessary lying in the finest kind of style. Hence the truth in regard to such matters almost never comes to the light. It would not do to astonish the world with the real truth about many such occurrences. RIGHT TO DEFEND HIS HOME. We welcome with pleasure every indication of a disposition on the part of the Southern brother to treat the Afro-American with fairness and justice and such an instance recently occurred in the state of Arkansas. A difficulty took place between a white man and an Afro-American. Later the white man went to the Afro-American's house and shot at him. The Afro-American returned the fire and wounded the white man. The jury awarded the Afro-American two years in the penitentiary. Judge A. B. Grace set aside the verdict and ruled that the Afro-American had the same right to defend his home as the white man had; so he discharged the prisoner. At first glance the foregoing may seem a rather unimportant matter, but we pronounce it one of supreme importance and know that it required no little courage upon the part of the judge to take such action. --- ```markdown ``` An unsecured Christian Institution, devoted especially to advanced education, offers a variety of English and English High School courses, with industrial Training, Superior advantages in Engineering, Industrial Training, Superior advantages in Girls, Home Life and training, Aid given to needy and reserving students, begins the first college catalog and information, address President MORGAN BUMMER HOWARD UNIVERSITY The forty-first Annual Session will begin October 1, 1988, and continue eight months.

And as i was ono of ity early pro: moters and know much of its his- tory, | believe i is no small thing for a newspaper ta hve for a qnvter of a centnry uncer the cireumsta 1e>s which have su:rcunded THE AP- PFAL, and it seems to mo that sone sort ef celebration of the event ‘would be eminently fit and proper. and, I also be¥eve that the citizens ef the ‘Twin Cities whom you have served so faithfully and well wovld gladly join in maxing the event one long to be remembered, ‘My idea is that a souvenir edition of THE APPEAL be published con. taining a chronological history of the events that have transpired during its existence, cuts and sketches of prominent mea and women, cuts of the beautiful homes that 0 many ‘have become the happy possessors of, and numerous other matters of inter. est that would make such an edition ‘a most valuable one for us all. Then asa grand finale a public testimonial celebration in some large hall on the anniversary day of THR APPEAL'S bith or such other day that in your judgment is more suitable, in which all may take a part in making the event one of the largest ever held here, I would suggest, if the idea meets your approval, that you select a num- der of persons to act as a committee to carry out such plans as I have ad- vanced or as you may deem most ad- visable. 7 Very truly yours, ‘T.
