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. All Who Get $3,000 or Over a Year Taxable. WILL PUNISH ALL DODGERS. Government Requires That All of the Returns Be Made Under Oath—Extent of the Law is Broad—All Who Are Liable and Fail to Make Payment Will Be Fined. Washington—It now behooves all those with an income of more than $3,000 a year to lay a hand upon a furrowed brow and to find out how they are going to pay the income tax to the government and what will happen to them if they do not. Representative Cordell Hull of Tennessee, who framed the income tax bill, issued a statement intended to help the taxable persons, and the internal revenue bureau of the treasury department is already at work on a set instructions which will be issued later. In the first place, the law about to go into effect includes within its scope all citizens of the United States residing at home or abroad, all persons living in the United States though not citizens thereof and all net incomes from property and business owned or carried on in the United States by aliens. In every case a deduction of $3,000 is allowed for living expenses. In the case of a husband who is living with his wife or a wife who is living with her husband an additional $1,000 exemption is allowed, so that all told married person is entitled to an exemption of $1,000. Only one $4,000 deduction is to be allowed from the aggregate income of both husband and wife. Under ordinary circumstances incomes are to be computed for the calendar year. In the case of the present Photo © by American Press Association. CORDELL HULL year, however, the tax is to be computed only on that portion of the income accruing from March 1 to Dec. 31 next. The treasury department is preparing blank forms, which will be distributed by the district internal revenue collectors to each taxable person. If you fail to get such a blank you are required under a penalty to apply to the collector or his deputy for one. Blanks will be on deposit with postmaster, and if required by the collectors. Every taxable person is to fill out and return one of these blanks to the internal revenue collector of his district before Jan. 1 and March 1 next. The taxpayer must fill out under oath a true and accurate statement of his income of $3,000 or more for the calendar year. This return shall set forth specifically the gross amount of income from all separate sources, and from this total shall be deducted the aggregate items of the expenses and allowances authorized under the law. Any taxpayer who fails to make a reason for before March 1 will be liable to a penalty of not less than $200 nor more than $1,000. If his return is fraudulent it will be a misdemeanor, and he will be subject to a fine of $2,000 or imprisonment for one year, or both. Each taxpayer will be notified by the internal revenue commissioner by June 1, 1914, of the amount of the tax due from him, and the payment must be made by June 30 following. In the event of failure to pay the tax by June 30 and after ten days' further notice 5 per cent will be added to the amount of the tax and interest at the rate of 1 per month from the time the tax falls due. Exceptions are made in regard to penalties in the cases of incomes from the estates of insane, deceased or insolvent persons. In the case of neglect or refusal to make returns or in case of false returns the commissioner of internal revenue may make such return himself any time within three years of the date when the return was due. OLDEST UNIVERSITY FOUND. OLDEST TABLET. One Own. Enlarged. Ancient Tablets Prove One Existed In Ninjaun Tampa 2000 RoC "BLIND," SEES X RAY SKIRT. Test Eyes of Beggar Who "Rubberbed" When Wearer of Gown Passed. Lima, O.-Scientific inquiry into the normal condition of the eyes of Thomas Kern, a begging "blind" man, has been ordered by Mayor Shook, following the alleged development in municipal court that Kern found little optical impediment in discerning the form of a woman in a diaphanous gown at an interurban depot. With a "Please Help the Blind" sign plumed across the front of his coat, dressed over his eyes and a tin cup resting in his hands, Kern got at the depot, an object of pity until, as the woman passed, he dropped his cup, snatched away his glasses, took a long "rubber" and then started to resume his pose, when a policeman arrested him. HAVEN FOR TRAMPS HAS FED 300,000 MEN "Turn No Hungry Man Away," Said Dying Millionaire. San Francisco, Cal.-"Turn no hungry man away from the Parrott home." On his deathbed John Parrott, a multimillionaire clubman of Hillsborough, solemnly laid the injunction on his wife that all who should come hungry to the house in the stately and ornate park which is one of the beauty spots of Hillsborough should receive food and shelter. That was in 1884, and since that time more than 300,000 tramps and wanders and adventurers have received succeor from Mrs. Parrott, who has held her husband's dying wish as a sacred trust. At one time twenty-five tramps were fed at the Parrott home. There is a porch at the back of the huge kitchen attached to the mansion which is used as the hoboes' dining room. There they may have hot meals in abundant quantity and of the best quality. For years Mrs. Parrott employed a special chef to cook for her wayfaring guests. She puts aside a large month's worth of expenses to hold expenses to provide for them. They also are permitted to camp on the grounds, and sometimes fifty to a hundred men are gathered there. 78 GIRLS PROPOSE TO HIM. Heir to $2,500 a Year, Now a Cobber, Defera Choice, However. Brunswick, Ga.-Attracted by the story of Van Allan, a newspaper man who, after spending his first yearly allowance of $25,000, is now living the humble life of a cobbler, by which means he hopes to save enough money to get to Birmingham, where he will receive another allowance of $25,000 in February, seventy-eight girls have written letters to Allan proposing marriage. Allan came to Brunswick on his "uppers." He had been previously living a life of ease. He received a bequest of $25,000 a year for the remainder of his life, but his remittance falls due in February. He has not yet chosen his life partner. 120 YEARS TOO OLD TO WED Register of Deeds In North Carolina Refuses Man Seventh License Raleigh, N. C.-Declaring his age of 120 years too great for marriage, the register of deeds of Bladen county declined to give Joseph McIntyre his seventh marriage license. Mr. McIntyre has buried six wives, all of whom lived with him until death. The register declined to issue a license on the ground that the applicant was too old to take care of his prospective bride, who gave her age and marriage. She has been married four times. The couple walked two miles to the town to ask for a license. THE APPEAL. Minnesota Historical Society ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1913. AIMED AT ALLEGED TRUST. Plan to Force Manufacturers to Keep Prices Down—Government as a Competitor Would Not Produce All of its Own Plate—Increase in Prices Has Been Felt. Washington—Seven million dollars to provide for a government armor plate plant is asked for in a bill introduced by Representative Britten of Illinois. The bill was introduced coincident with the announcement by the navy department that bids for $3,000,000 worth of armor for battleship No. 39 had been rejected because they are identical. Although Representative Britten is a Republican, his bill follows generally the ideas of Secretary Daniels, who has reported that a "trust" evidently exists in the armor plate business and that the government should have a plant of its own, not to make all its armor, but to provide enough to make competition with the private mills. In addition, Representative Britten is about to take up with several senators the advisability of changing the Underwood tariff bill so as to admit armor plate free of duty. Representative Britten bill provides for the acquisition of a site, the erection of suitable buildings and the curing of necessary machinery and supplies for the establishment and maintenance of the plan. Active operations on the plant are to begin within six months after the passage of the bill. In discussing his bill Representative Britten said that he had had in mind for some months the introducing of a "plan that would break up if possible the trust now controlling the armor plate situation in this country. "The opening of the bids of the navy department for $3,000,000 worth of armor for battleship No. 39, appropriated for last year, in which the bids of the three armor producing companies in the United States correspond exactly and give the same amount per ton as last year," said Mr. Britten, "shows conclusively the collision existing in the bidding regardless of the fact that each bider attests in an adivatif submit with his respective bids that the company is not engaged in any such agreement and proves conclusively the competition for this enormous amount of government business is a farce. "The only way to procure armor plate at anything like a reasonable price is for the government to enter into direct competition in its manufacture with the companies already engaged in this work. I am not in favor of entering into the field to such an extent as to put the other armor producing companies out of business, but to manufacture a sufficient amount of this commodity so as to force them into competition and compel them to offer us their armor at least at a fairly reasonable cost. "Investigations recently made in this direction have shown that in a government plant capable of turning out 10,000 tons a year, which is about half of the armor needed on a two-battleship program, the cost of the armor will not exceed $314 a ton. The difference between this and the amount bld last Tuesday, which was exactly the same per ton as the bids submitted last year, $454; on 10,000 tons, at a saving of $140 per ton over the price of the government would save $1,400,000 a year. The interest on the money used in building the plant, the government will still save considerably over $1,000,000 a year, which amount in a very short time will completely cover the cost of the plant, and at the same time we will be independent of this branch of the steel trust. As a business proposition the plant would not the government more than 17 per cent on the entire investment after allowing 3 per cent on the total expenditure or $1,200,000. In 1906 the price of armor plate was $346 a ton. in 1907 the trust jumped it to $420 a ton, and last year it was raised to $454 a ton. The price goes up constantly and remains up, and the evidence is not lacking that the price at the present time is based more upon the companies think they can get than what it costs. "Some years ago we were confronted with the same problem in the purchase of powder for the use of the army and the navy. We built a powder plant, entered into direct competition with the powder companies and today are saving $268.80 on each ton of powder. "We manufacture our own powder in part, we manufacture our own guns, and there is no reason in the world why we should not manufacture a part of our own armor plate. The cost of the plant is not prohibitive, and the cost of operation will not be a severe obstacle. We convinced that the government should erect a plant large enough to manufacture a goodly portion of the armor plate required and give the rest of the work to such firms as are willing to bring their prices down to what will be shown by the government plant to be a reasonable figure. This is the 'intent of my bill.' SAYS WHALEY BOUGHT SEAT. Mayor Grace of Charleston Accuses South Carolina Representative, Washington,—John P. P. grace, mayor of Charleston, S. C. has filed with Speaker Clark a sensational petition under oath in which he charges that Representative Richard S. Whale, Democratic member of congress from the first South Carolina district, bought his seat, alleging that during the campaign. Mr. Whaley spent $80,000. Mayor Grace demands that the right of Mr. Whaley to retain his seat be investigate, and that expulsion follow if charges are substantiated. The federal campaign publicity law prohibits the expenditure of more than REPRESENTATIVE WHALEY. $5,000 by a candidate for congress in any campaign. According to Grace's charge, Mr. Whaley spent an average of $10 for every vote he received. The petition was referred to the house elections committee. Mr. Whalley has denied every charge. He asserts that he never had $60,000 in all his life. This is the first time that a statement of any candidate for congress filed under the campaign publicity acts has ever been questioned. BAG 80,000,000,000 GERMS FOR SCIENCE Professors Bring Them Back as South American Curiosities. Baltimore—Having bagged 80,000,000 malignant gerns in the wilds of Ecuador and Peru, Dr. Andrew Watson Sellards of Johns Hopkins university and his associates have landed their prey in this country and forthwith will proceed to make a scientific study of the creatures at short range. His colleagues were Richard B. Singsong, Tyzzer and Dr. Charles Brues, all of Harvard university, and Miss Nora Dwyer. Miss Dwyer was a noncombatant and, it is said, did not participate in the actual warfare on the germs. She was the secretary of the expedition and later on was intrusted with the guarding of the captives. Among the 80,000,000 germs are pellagran, oryea fever, yellow fever, bubonic plague, typhoid fever, a collection known as uta, which is really a leprosy, and the dreaded blackwater fever. The germs all carefully crated, were admitted to the United States as "South American curiosities" and were shipped to Harvard college. MINIMUM WAGE IN OREGON. Not Less than $9.25 Nor Over Fifty Hours Weekly For Women. Portland, Ore.-The Industrial welfare commission of Oregon has adopted a ruling which will become a law Nov. 23, fixing a minimum wage of $9.25 a week for adult women clerks who are not apprentices, defining eight hours and twenty minutes as the maximum day's work and fifty hours as the maximum for a week and making 6 p. m. the latest hour at which any woman may be employed on any day the year in a mercantile establishment. The order automatically eliminates Saturday night shopping and Christmas holiday night shopping in such establishments. SOCIETY WOMEN ON JURY. Judge Drawe Panel From the Blue Book and Social Register. Chicago—Judge John E. Owens got down the Blue Book and the Social Register and drew a jury of women whose names frequently appear in the society columns to sit in the court for the insane. Only one of them had ever served on a jury. In court he heard the story of an old woman who, because her mind was beginning to weaken, was not wanted any more in the home she had occupied for many years. At first very早 before she found many fashionably dressed women, she found it hard to talk when the judge questioned her. USE ELECTROCARDIOGRAPH. Prisoner Caught Through Confession Made by Ally When He Thought Death Was Near—Crime Fourteen Years Old—Believe Instrument Will Tell True Story of Killing. Omaha, Neb.—As the result of a confession made by another man on what he supposed was to be his deathbed Charles Koff of Vallejo, Cal., is to be brought back to Nebraska and tried for the murder of Julian Buhard, a miner, of Julian, Neb., fourteen years ago. On a charge of being implicated in the same crime Fuller Shellenberger of Burlington, Kam., also will be tried, the prosecution being based on the concession, made when he thought he was dying, last July after being prostrated by heat. In questioning Koff about the murder the authorities will use a very delicate instrument known as the electrocardiograph, which records on a motion picture film the electric impulse generated by the human heart under the stress of emotions. Evidence thus recorded would not be admitted during a trial of a person for murder, but the record will be valuable for scientific reasons. There are only five electrocardiographs in America, four being in the east and the one to be used on Koff being at the University of Nebraska. The instrument records the heart's actions through a fiber to delicately it chills, be seen by the naked eye. The movement of the fiber is therefore passed through a small telescope by the aid of an electric are lamp its shadow is recorded on the film. The instrument was invented by Professor Elnthoven of Levden, Holland. According to Shellenberger's confession, Buhairn kept his money in a tinn can, which was cut open with a hatchet after the aged miner had been slain. In removing the money from the can, Shellenberger says, Koff cut one of his hands so badly on the jagged tin that a scar was left and may be seen today. In examining Koff the authorities will show him a can like the one described by Shellenberger and without letting him know Shellenberger has made a confession will refer to things of which Shellenberger spoke concerning the crime. Scientists say he may be able to control his facial expression and appear perfectly calm during the electrocardiogram never will be toldtale variations in the beating of his heart as he bears or looks upon things associated with the murder. Shellenberger has repudiated his confession, saying he was delirious when he made it. He is in a Nebraska jail, however, and must face trial. Koff has been employed at the Mare Island navy yard at San Francisco for the last nine years. After Shellenberger confessed detectives took up Koff's trail and arrested him. SEES WILSON ON TOY MAIL Philadelphia Girl Aka Him to Back Plan to Befriend Children. Washington—President Wilson granted an interview to Miss Olive May Wilson, the seventeen-year-old girl from Jenkintown, a suburb of Philadelphia, who came to Washington to ask public men to indorse her project for sending toys through the mails next Christmas to 5,000 destitute boys and girls of Philadelphia. Miss Wilson told the president of her ambition to develop the mail distribution of toys into a national understaff, and Mr. Wilson promised to consider her plan before officially indorsing it as president. She has already obtained the support of Vice President Marshall. FRIGHT CURES HIS ACHES. Rheumatism Vanishes When Horse Has Tail Snatched Off. Barabo. Wis.-A team belonging to Floyd Townsend was driven near a thrashing machine in Montfort, and when the horse nearest swished his tail at the flies the appendage was drawn into the machine, and every hair was pulled out. William Bowers, the driver, was thrown from the escaped death when the animal plunged. Christopher Neuroth, aged and bent with rheumatism, was on the rear of the load and when the excitement was over stood straighter than he had for years. His rheumatism was gone. $650,000 NECKLACE SOLD. Famous Pearls to Be Brought to This Country. London. - The Brussels Telegram states that Max Mayer's famous $600, 300 pearl necklace has been purchased by Count de Montauon on behalf of an other person and that the count is about to sail for America with the necklace. The necklace was lost recently, and was picked up in the street by a workman, who was so ignorant of its value that he tried to sell one of the pearls for a glass of beer. 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 energized. BUSH'S YACHT HIS COFFIN. Scuttled at Sea With His Ashes, the Crew Reports. Portland, Me. — A story which for novel features has few parallels is told by the crew of the schooner yacht Lydia, scuttled about ten miles off this port late in August, with the cremated body of her owner, James Freeman Bush, a wealthy paper manufacturer, resting on a table in the cabin. The sending of the handsome craft to her final anchorage with the ashes of Mr. Bush aboard was the result of a dying request made by him to his wife in a hospital here, where he had been operated on and where he died Aug. 24. According to the story told by members of the crew and not denied by Mrs. Bush, the Lydia, aboard which Mr. Bush had spent a great deal of time in late years, left Portland late in August with all sail set and towing a motorboat. Mrs. Bush was aboard. So were two close friends of Mr. Bush. On a table in the cabin lay the ashes of the owner. Captain Frank M. Skelfield of Cundy's Harbor, who had sailed the vessel for Mr. Bush, was at the wheel. About ten miles off the port the vessel was headed into the wind, the persons aboard were placed in the motorboat, and with an ax a hole was cut in the craft. Slowly she filled and sank to her grave. CAN'T REFORM; WANTS TO DIE Youth, Arrested In St. Louis, Says He Will Commit Suicide. St. Louis, Mo.-Sidney L. Pincus, twenty years old, who says he is the black sheep of a prominent New York family, is going to commit suicide the first time he has a chance because he is an habitual forger and can't reform. He told detectives this when they arrested him on a charge of trying to pass a forged check. "It's no use trying to be good," Pincus said. "I have no resistance. I have no power to control myself when the impulse to do wrong seizes me. I am going to kill myself at the first opportunity." Pincus says he left home when he was eighteen years old because he was bad and couldn't help it. CONDUCTING INQUIRY INTO COST OF LIVING President Orders Investigation of High Prices. Washington.—An investigation into the reasons for the high cost of living which is nation wide in its scope has been going on quietly for some time at the direction of President Wilson. Administration officials are devoting particular attention to marketing methods in an effort to get at the root of the matter. The greater part of the matter has fallen on Secretary of Agriculture Houston Hopkins. The problem of the high cost of living embraces two divisions, so far as the investigators are concerned. These are: How to afford means to the farmer to increase the production of his land and how to lift the burden of the steadily increasing cost of food from the masses. It is recognized by administration officials that scientific farming alone will not offer a solution of the problem, but that a study must be made of community effort in order that something effective may be done. It is admitted that there is considerable alarm over the fact that indications point to a sharp rise in the price of foodstuffs during the confining, winter. This is particularly the case with eggs and beef. The former, it has been said, will rise to 75 cents per dozen, while warnings have been issued that beef may reach the dollar mark before long. Secretary Houston has formulated a living situation which are being sent to farmers in parts of the country. These questions deal with ownership, tenancy and credits, and from the answers Secretary Houston hopes to build the groundwork for his investigation. IN RUNAWAY WITH DYNAMITE. Yellow Jackets Attack Horses, and Explosive is Tossed About. Wilkesbarre Pa.--While driving a team of horses attached to a wagon which contained 1,000 pounds of dynamite, George Wilms had an exciting experience when a swarm of yellow jackets attacked the horses and they ran away. For three miles the队 dragged the wagon, dynamite and driver over a rough road. Wilms realized that if he jumped the队 and wagon would surely be blown to pieces, and he decided to take a chance and keep them in the road. Several times the队 nearly upset, and the dynamite was tossed about. The horses stopped when exhausted. Another Comes Lost Another Comet Located. London.-The fourth comet of the year was discovered by Senor Delaran, assistant in the La Plata observatory in Argentine. It is of the tenth magnitude and is probably identical with Westphala's comet of 1852, which is due and with which Metcalf's comet, which was discovered a month ago, was mistaken identified.

TREATED JUST AS A CONVICT Gets the Same Fare and Dons Regular Prison Clothes—Is Bathed as He Enters and Assigned to Cell-Will Determine Effects of Prison Life on Mind. Auburn, N. Y.-Emulating the example of Governor Hunt of Arizona, who in March, 1912, had himself locked up with convicts to share their experience of prison life. Thomas Mott Osborne, chairman of the state commission for prison reform, has entered Auburn prison and is serving a self imposed sentence for the purpose of studying the effect of discipline, food, labor and the general prison system on a convict's mind. Mr. Osborne entered the prison as any new convict would do, went through the routine, such as being taken for a bath, a session with the prison barber and prison tailor, and went through the same grind as a convicted fellow. In reply to a question he said he was to take all his medicine" and would not talk at the dungeon should his conduct at any time justify his incarceration there. The results of the study are to be embodied in a report to be made by the commission that is studying prison reform with a view to legislation next year. Chairman Osborne spoke to the convicts in chapel and said in part: "As chairman of the commission on prison reform appointed by Governor Sulzer the superintendent of prisons and Warden Rattigan have kindly given me permission to carry out a plan to determine the psychological effect of the prison system on the prison." THOMAS MOTT OSBORNE. If sympathy and understanding from a vivid personal experience are desirable to studying, say, some foreign country, they are even more necessary in the case of a group of men set apart by society such as this prison community. For in your cases the conditions under which you live are more unnatural and less easy for most persons to grasp than those of a foreign country. "Moreover, most of the books that have been written about you by so called 'pienologists' are written largely from the outside standpoint and with so little intelligent sympathy and vital understanding that few are of real value. They seem to be based on the assumption that the prisoner is not a human being like the rest of us, but is a strange sort of animal called a 'criminal', wholly different in his instincts, feelings and actions from the rest of mankind. "I want to find out whether our prison system is unintelligent; whether it files in the face of all common sense and human nature, as I think it does; and my sympathy and experience, we cannot find something far better to take its place, as I believe we can. "I am coming here to learn what I can at first hand. In the court of conscience I have been found guilty of having lived many years indifferent to and ignorant of what has been going on behind these walls and have been sentenced to a short term at hard labor in Auburn prison. I expect to begin serving my sentence this week and am coming here to live your life, to be housed, clothed, fed, treated in all respects like one of you. I want to see for myself exactly what your life is like—not as viewed from the outside in, but from the inside out." No Rent For Thirty Years. Columbus, Ind.-John Zimmerman, ninety-nine, known popularly as John Cinnamon, is dead in a home in he and occupied for thirty years without paying a cent of rental. Francis T. Crump, capitalist, owner of the building, recently called on the building and mentioned the matter of rent with the result Zimmerman said he had just repaired the roof and would call the rent bill squared.

Seven years have passed since the bloody massacre of innocent Afro-Americans at Atlanta, Georgia, and we reprint Du Bois' famous "A Littany of Atlanta" that the race may not forget the awful days when Colored men, women and children were shot down like dogs because of their race. Not a single person who was killed had been guilty of any crime whatever. It is especially an illuminating commentary on the whole race-hatred movement. It indicates that the real desire is to lunch a Négro and not particularly to punish the man guilty of crime. It shows how debased a man can become through hatred, and makes one pause and wonder whether civilization may work its way out on this continent when such savagery can dominate whole communities of men. Remittances should be made by Express Money Order, Post Office Money Order, Registered Letter or Bank Draft. Postage Stamps will be received the same as one for the fractional parts of a dollar.

In his gubernatorial canvass Smith also made incendiary speeches inciting the Caucasians against Afro-Americans and demanding that the race be disfranchised. This has since been done by legislative enactment. In this case an innocent citizen, supposed to have the protection of the law, was ruthlessly slaughtered to make a holiday for a frenzied, shouting mass of half-crazed men, drunk with lust for blood through a fostering of race hatred. Nothing can undo that crime, nothing give back that life. Yet the law complacently beholds these maniacs proceeding about their business and makes no effort to apprehend them for their awful crime.

Let it burn into the souls of your children so that they may know that in its efforts to degrade the Colored race and rescue it to a condition not far removed from slavery, the South does not hesitate to murder innocent men, women and children. It seems inevitable that some day the government itself will have to devise a way to prevent this disregard of law and justice and decency if communities are unwilling or helpless.—St. Paul Dispatch. it occasionally happens that papers sent to subscribers are lost or stolen.

The mob that destroyed an innocent man will go its way undisturbed, yet it committed hot-blooded murder without justification.

Who ravished and debauched their mothers and their grandmothers? Who bought and sold their crime, and waxed fat and rich on public iniquity? Thou knowest, good God! Is this Thy justice, O Father, that guile be easier than innocence, and the innocent crucified for the guilt of the untouched guilty? Justice, O Judge of men! Wherefore do we pray? Is not the God of the fathers dead? Have not seers seen in Heaven's halls Thine hearsed and lifeless form stark amidst the black and rolling smoke of sin, where all along bow bitter forms of endless dead? Thou art not dead, but flown afar, up hills of endless light, thru blazing corridors of suns, where worlds do swing of good and gentle men, of women strong and free—far from the cozenage, black hypocrisy and chaste prostitution of this shameful speck of dust! Bewildered a mobbed and of Thy Throne by the bones of the very blood the Plan; give Keep Great God deliver us! THE ADDRESS TO THE COUNTRY After a national campaign in which independent Colored voters broke away from traditional party solidarity against the national Democratic party under the lead of this League for the expressed purpose of trying the experiment of bringing about a better racial feeling between the Colored American and the Democratic South, the National Independent League in the 6th Annual Meeting assembled, has no apologies to offer for the course advised, despite disappointment at the course so far pursued under cabinet officers and in one respect by the President, a Democrat whose election the Colored was respected so numerously, more so than ever for a Democrat before. The officers of this League and other leaders were not only given assurances of no color discrimination, the National Democratic Committee, which supported four headquarters to send out literature to the Colored voters asking their vote on the assurance of justice to goal rights, but Gov. Wilson, the candidate, by word and open letter, declared unacquaintably for a course based upon the letter and spirit of the federal constitution, on Christianity, and "justice executed with liberality." Cutting down almost to zero the holding of federal office by Colored citizens under presidential appointment is not consistent with these promises. The present policy of color segregation in toilets and working positions in the Treasury and the Postoffice Department buildings at Washington is such an insult, humiliation, public degradation, denial of justice, of freedom and the right to rise by merit, that its continuance would be not only a menace to our Republic, but an act of perfidy by the National Democratic party whose acting committee head was none other than the present Secretary of the Treasury; and of personal dishonor by the present President of the United States. We cannot believe that this course will be persisted in by the cabinet officers or long permitted by this Christian President. We appeal to the National Democratic party to be true to the name "democracy," to be a national not a sectional party, one of equal rights, not one dominated by sectional or racial prejudice. We appeal to President Wilson to be the president of all the people, not of a part of the people. The Democratic party is now on trial, as to whether its leaders in the North are to make good on their past claims that the national party was not a mere Southern race-prejudice party, whether its best Southern leaders can make good on their prophecies that support by Colored voters in the North would lead to more friendly racial relations. The question whether Colored men can ever safely vote the National Democratic ticket is now in the hands of a Democratic administration, which has complete control of the federal government. On the answer depends the future of the party as one destined to retain power. We call to the attention of the people of the United States and protest against. First Complete denial of Civil Rights for American citizens because of race and color in the Southern states, and a partial and growing denial in Northern states. Second. Separation of Citizens. Second—Segregation of Citizens for Race and Color in all public facilities and places of accommodation and resort in these Southern states, including even libraries, street cars, and residences, degrading system of Jim-Crowism. Third—Unequal and Inadequate School Provisions Third - Unequal and Inadequate School Provisions in the South for Colored persons with a tendency to limit educational advantages to elementary and industrial lines, even unequal application of federal school appropriations to Southern states. the man guilty show debased a high hatred, and whether its way out on such savagery communities of in the South for Colored persons with a tendency to limit advantages to elementary and industrial lines, even unequal of federal school appropriations to Southern states. Fourth—Race and Color Segregation By or Within the Federal G a policy which never approached the official stage until institution now existing as to the public lavatories and workin in the department buildings at Washington under the Secret Treasury and the Postmaster General, constituting the intricate into the national government, a humiliation of one people, a violation of the principles of Civil Service Reform. Fourth—Race and Color Segregation By or Within the Federal Government, a policy which never approached the official stage until this administration now existing as to the public invarieties and working positions in the civil service, the constitution of the Treasury and the Postmaster General, constituting the introduction caste into the national government, a humiliation of one-tenth of the people, a violation of the principles of Civil Service Reform. Fifth—Disfranchisement for Race or Color, almost universally prevalent in the Southern states in violation of the spirit and letter of the federal law, taking away a citizen's only defense in a Republic, not, as claimed, by a voting test, but the application of some laws for Colored citizens and based on ancestry and no test for white citizens. almost universally prevalent in the Southern states in viola spirit and letter of the federal law, taking away a citizen's or in a Republic, not, as claimed, by a voting test, but the app severe tests: one the insuperable test for Colored citizens and ancestry and no test for white citizens. Sixth—The Denial of Right of Trial by Jury and Substitution of law. Because of race or color—horrible savage practice fruit—dread results of all before mentioned color discrimin denial of the suffrage. Such conditions demand the protest and the practical oppositi patriotic citizen of this Republic, of Colored citizens for the press their rights, their liberties, their families, and very lives; of other for the preservation of our Republic form of government.

PROTEST AGAINST WRONG To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust; the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our last disputes. The few who dare, must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many. Ella Wheeler Wilcox. --- FROM lust of power and lust of gold, Great God deliver us! From the leagued lying of despot and of brute, Great God deliver us! A city lay in travail, God our Lord, and from her loins sprang twin Murder and Black Hate. Red was the midnight; clang, crack and cry of death and fury filled the air and trembled underneath the stars when church spires pointed silently to Thee. And all this was to sate the greed of greedy men who hide behind the veil of vengeance! Bend us Thine ear, O Lord! In the pale, still morning we looked upon the deed. We stopped our ears and held our leaping hands, but they—did they not wag their heads and leer and cry with bloody jaws! Cease from Crime! The word was mockery, for thus they train a hundred crimes while we docure one. A city lay in travail, God our Lord, and from her loins sprang twin Murder and Black Hate.

Behold this maimed and broken thing; dear God it was an humble black man who toiled and sweat to save a bit from the pittance paid him. They told him: Work and Rise. He worked. Did this man sin? Nay, but some one told how some one said another did—one whom he had never seen nor known. Yet for that man's crime this man lieth maimed and murdered, his wife naked to shame, his children, to poverty and evil.

Space will not permft us to enumerate all the doings. Deacon Hood took to rooting along toward the close of the game and single handed gave the Carling’s a substantial boost. . The score was 18 to 10 in favor of the Ryans. Essie Jones played an exceptionally good game on first base, as also did John Cloak of the Carling’s. Mrs. Hood (wife of Deacon), was surrounded by one of Maxim's densiest zones of silence until the Carling’s started to score, when she emerged from it with a wonderful vigor. Dr. Mitchell was wonderfully spry around the “bags” but was unable to attend the Emancipation Celebration that evening owing to stiffness in the “ints.” ‘The doctor has a wonderful “whip,” first, base was not far enough away for him and hence as third base- man he threw the ball far into the bleachers on each trial.
