The Appeal

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. 28. NO. 43. PAID ADVE Published for F. Alexander Stewa Pittsburgh Building, St. Paul, for whi Published for F.

HALBERT MAY SEND REGAN TO CONGRESS May Accomplish Stevens' Defeat and Elect a Democrat As the time for the election draws near, it is more and more apparent that Hugh Halbert, third party candidate for Congress, has no possible chance of being elected. The only danger is that he will draw enough Republican votes from Frederick C. Stevens to make it possible for J. J. Regan, Democrat, to slip in. Influence in Congress is secured by tenure of office. It is a noteworthy fact that the states which secure the most benefits from the national government are those states which are represented by men who have been in Congress longest. Mr. Stevens has proved his worth and ability. He is a national figure and the dean of Minnesota Congressmen. It would be political suicide for the voters of this district to lose Congressman Stevens and place an inexperienced man like Mr. Regan in his place. PAID ADVERTISEMENT Prepared by James H.

Gerber, the Republican candidate for Sheriff, answering to the call of a large number of members of his party, filed for the nomination and was nominated at the primaries. He now comes up for election, and should those who voted for him at the primaries vote for him on Nov. 5 he will doubtless be elected. Having filled the office before, he is perfectly familiar with its multitudinous duties and fully capable to carry them out in a manner creditable to himself and satisfactorily to his constituents. A vote cast for "Billy," as he is familiarly known, will be put where it will do the most good. PAID ADVERTISEMENT. Written by James A. Diffenbaugh, in behalf of the Mazelle, St. Paul. Price to be paid. $5.00 Judge of Probate Court and Candidate for Re-election. Hon. E. W. Bazille has been judge of the Ramsey County Probate Court for the last fourteen years, having been first elevated to that position in 1898. His record on the bench is without a blemish of any kind, and he has shown himself to be broadly wise and learned on the subject of testamentary-law, one of the most intricate and exacting branches of legal acumen and practice. He is particularly well qualified for the position he holds, which is well known throughout the county. The people believe in his ability and entire uprightness, as is amply shown by his repeated elections to the bench of the Probate Court, and in no respect has he ever belied, in his official conduct, the general estimate of his capacity, high character and absolute fairness. His family has been prominent in the history of St. Paul for nearly three-quarters of a century, and he has therefore every incentive for the cordial interest he has always manifested in the city and county of his home. He obtained his academic education in the St. Paul public schools, his business training at the St. Paul Business College, and his legal instruction in the office of the late Judge Cornish, a prominent St. Paul lawyer. Following his admission to the bar he applied himself vigorously to his profession and rose to a high rank in it. For four years, from 1883 to 1887, he served as Clerk of the District Court and from 1894 to 1898 as Abstract Clerk. These official positions gave him excellent practical training for the duties of his present office and furnished him with qualifications for them surpassing those of most men. The interests of the general public are entirely safe in his hands, and every person who has business in his court can rely on a square deal and the fullest protection of his rights in every particular. Mr. W. F. T. Chandler is employed at the National and State Democratic headquarters in the Endicott Bldg. and Mr. R. M. Johnson is employed at the Democratic City and County headquarters in the Ryan. The Republicans have no Afro-Americans employed at either of their headquarters. The grand jury will hold its next session next Tuesday. For many years the judges of the District Court of Ramsey County have been distinguished for their ability, fairness, uprightness and integrity largely because they have been selected without reference to their political affiliations. Judges Hascal R. Brill, William Louis Kelly and Frederick N. Dickson are candidates for reelection. Their life long residence in this community and their faithful, efficient and impartial discharge of the duties of their high office fairly entitle them to the support of the voters of this county. THE APPEAL STEADILY GAINS BECAUSE: 4-It is the organ of ALL Afro-Americans. 5-It is not controlled by any ring or clique. 6-It asks no support but the people's. PAID ADVERTISEMENT Prepared by J. C.

This office is a very important one, as the work includes keeping track of records of all Ramsey County real estate. Since assuming his duties four years ago, Mr. Bazille has revolutionized the work in the office, making it possible to do twice the work that was formerly done, and with the same amount of effort help, the real estate records of Ramsey County are changing rapidly on account of subdivisions of real estate, it is necessary to have a man in this office who knows his business, and Mr. Bazille has demonstrated that he can fill the bill.

President Taft Says It Is Essential to Full Development tial to Full Development. Every once in an awhile you will meet a man whose vision is a bit clouded, who talks about the waste of money in teaching men of your race the curriculum of an academic institution. Instead of sending them to the university, the claim is made that they should be sent to manual training institutions. Such a man has never thought deeply on the subject and does not understand that as a race which is striving onward and upward you need many who shall be leaders—men who shall figure in the learned professions, many of them as physicians, as lawyers and especially as ministers. Race Has High Ideals. I believe in the higher education of the race so that the leaders of the Afro-American people may have high ideals, and I believe they have. I believe that they subscribe, as perhaps some others in our community life do not, to the majesty of the law and have respect for constituted authority [hearty applause] and for our institutions as they are. [Great applause].—President Taft at Howard University Meeting. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1912. THE MINISTER'S DUTY The minister of the gospel is, or should be, one of the great leaders of the people in his community. It is his duty to give them sound advice and direct them in the right way in this world as well as to point out the way to the life everlasting. In the present campaign it is the duty of every Afro-American preacher who has the true interests of his race at heart to explain to his people the issues as they affect the Afro-American. He can show that the Democratic party has always been the bitter foe of the race, and has invariably opposed every measure proposed by the M. H. OUR FRIEND P RESIDENT TAFT. Who Will Be Re-elected President of the United States in November. Republican party to better the race's eleven-year-old boy of New York, that condition. his heart was on the right side in- P. HON. JAMES S. SHERMAN. Who Will Be Re-elected Vice President of the United States in November At the close of every sermon it would be well to have a short heart-to-heart talk with the congregation. At the close of every meeting during the week say a word for the party and keep up the enthusiasm. It is not likely that any considerable number of Afro-Americans will stray away from the fold and vote for Wilson or Roosevelt; but as all Afro-Americans are not sensible, let the preacher stand upon the watch-tower and warn them of the danger. Every minister of intelligence is well informed regarding the present political situation and he should lead his people aright. END OF OLDEST NEWSPAPER IN THE WORLD. One of the things which all newspapers boast of with pardonable pride is their age. And it may be a little surprising to some to know that in that regard the "Heathen Chinee" had all the papers in the world beaten to a frazzle until recently, according to the following excerpt from the Scientific American: The president of the Chinese Republic, Yuan Schi Kai, recently suppressed the newspaper King-Bao, which undoubtedly was the oldest paper in the world. For 1,500 years it has reported the more important news not only of China, but also of foreign countries. At a time when the art of printing and journalism was as yet unknown in Europe, the Chinese Gong-Chung invented a means for making types from lead and silver, and in the year 400 A. D. the paper King-Bao was printed, and has since been issued regularly until recently. The first edition was printed on ten sheets of yellow silk, neatly tied together, and was thus sent to all the high officials of the Chinese Empire. One often hears the complimentary expression used: "His heart is in the right place," and for one to have his heart in the right place is usually a good thing, but it happened to be a good thing for David Krunnish, an his heart was on the right side, instead of in the right place. Last Monday he fell and was impaled on a picket fence. One of the iron spikes penetrated his left breast three inches directly over the place where his heart should be. As his heart was not in the right place, he is now on the road to recovery. --- Charles Becker, police lieutenant of New York, was found guilty of instigating the killing of Rosenthal, gambler, who objected to some of Becker's plans, on last Thursday. The penalty is the electric chair. We are opposed to capital punishment on general principles, but this is a case that calls for punishment to fit the crime, so we are not inclined to 'make any strenuous objections, since, as Shylock says, "that is the law." --- In order to have the heinousness of any crime thoroughly investigated and exploited and condemned it is only necessary for the criminal to have been born black, or some other color than white. In fact, about the greatest crime one can be guilty of is to be born black. This is rather awful to contemplate, too, in view of the fact, that SEVEN-EIGHTHS of the population of the world were not born white. RESIGNED TO AID TAFT. Cyrus Field Adams, of Illinois, Assistant Registrar of the Treasury. Cyrus Field Adams, of Illinois, Assistant Registrar of the Treasury, has registered his name in order prosecution not to be hampered in the proceedings of his work in aid of the Republican party and for the re-election of President William Howard Taft. Mr. Adams has held the office for nearly twelve years. President Taft has appointed an Afro-American, J. F. Strickland, of Arkansas, to fill the vacancy caused by Mr. Adams' resignation. By this act the President again disproves the charge that he will not appoint Southern Afro-Americans to representative offices in service more than two-thirds of the Afro-American holding presidential appointments were born in the South or live in the South.

PRESIDENT TAFT'S DEEP SYMPATHY FOR THE RACE. I am fully alive to the heart pang that a colored man endures when suffering from the contemptuous insults of white men not at all his equal either in point of intelligence or devotion to duty. I know the sense of injustice that has oftentimes burned itself into his breast when he realizes that his rights have been trampled upon and his claims to fair treatment rejected solely because of the color of his skin.—President William Howard Taft. AFRO-AMERICANS AT WHITE HOUSE Race Fares Well Under Taft Administration. ANNUAL SALARIES $20,000 Twenty-seven Colored Employees Place of Custodian Created For Major (Now Lieutenant Colonel) Arthur Brooks, National Guard of the District of Columbia—His Commission Signed by President Taft. When Mr. Taft became president, March 4, 1900, there were six colored messengers and laborers employed in the executive office. In the reorganization of the office in 1911 two were transferred to positions in the departmental service. One was afflicted with tuberculosis, and the president had him transferred to a good position in the war department in New Mexico on advice of his physician. Since the president's inauguration three colored employees have been added—Major Arthur Brooks, commanding First Separate battalion, N. G. D. C., for whom the place of custodian was created: William Pannell and Harry L. Mickey. In the executive mansion the following Afro-Americans, in addition to several others who are still on the rolls, were employed at the time the president came into office: Messrs. Duncan, Amos, Brent, Reeder and Pinckney. --- M. DAVID S. BARRY. Director Publicity Bureau, Republican National Committee. SYMPATHY FOR THE RACE.

I know the sense of itself into his breast when he realized upon and his claims to fair treat-color of his skin.—President William Mr. Duncan was transferred to the treasury department at an increased salary. Mr. Brent was transferred as a clerk to the city postoffice at an increased salary. Mr. Reeder was transferred to the state department. Mr. Pinckny was given a good place in the executive office, and Mr. Amos was given a good place in New York. All of these places were filled by the president with colored men. In addition the president appointed the following Afro-American employees at the executive mansion: W. W. Brown, J. W. Mays, S. C. Jackson, L. C. Peters and Miss Annie Brooks. When the president came into office there were five colored coachmen and hosters at the White House stables. On account of changing from carriages to automobiles, chauffeurs and footmen were employed, but places were found in the departments for four of these coachmen and hosters and the other voluntarily accepted a position in New York. There are on the regular payroll of the executive office six colored employees whose salaries aggregate $5,630 per annum. On the regular pay roll of the executive mansion there are twenty colored employees whose annual salaries aggregate $11,562. One colored employee in the White House garage receives a salary of $680 per annum. A number of colored men and women are employed for duty at functions during the social season and their pay in the aggregate amounts to more than $1,000. The total amount paid to Afro-Americans at the White House is nearly $20,000 per annum. After twenty-five years of faithful service as the commanding officer of a battalion of the national guard of the District of Columbia, Major Arthur Brooks has recently been retired with the rank of lieutenant colonel. His commission was signed by President Taft. Lieutenant Colonel Brooks is still on duty as custodian at the White House. --- * WEEK'S RECORD IN MINNESOTA'S CAPITAL.

Barnett played in very bad luck last Saturday. He was on the West Side, and, getting on a car, gave the conductor a dime from which to take his fare. When the conductor tendered him the five cents due for change it fell on the floor. A dispute arose over who should pick it up, and finally the conductor put Barnett off the car. Barnett drew a revolver and threatened to shoot, and the car was stopped and Barnett had his gun taken away from him, and he was severely beaten by the motorman and conductor. He was arrested and placed in the station. On Monday when arraigned he plead guilty to the charge of carrying concealed deadly weapons and Judge Finehout sentenced him to the workhouse for 90 days without the option of a fine. Efforts were made by friends of Barnett to have the judge change his decision, but in vain, as he said he could do nothing, and that the only way would be to get the governor to grant a pardon.

The day before he died he told the nurse, Mrs. Evelyn Johnson, that he had been praying for the past three weeks, feeling that he was not going to get well, and that if it was the will to take him away, he was willing, as he knew his soul would be taken, as he knew his life would be Johnson to sing "It Is Well With My Soul." He requested that Rev. McDonald be asked to call to see him the next afternoon. He also said he had done all the good he could in trying to make others happy in this life. He asked her to pray for him. Rev. Carter eulogized the deceased for his generosity and other good traits of character and then took for his text Hebrews, 9-27: "And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment."
