He has just terminated his mission. "I arrived at Salonki from Sofa," he said, "on the evening of the second day of the first great battle between the Greeks and Bulgarians, the battle of the Kilkis. All the trains from the north were bringing in wounded soldiers, and every cab in the city was impressed for transporting them to hospitals. I had to walk to my hotel and let porters carry my trunks. Next day I learned that 2,500 soldiers had been killed in the first day after the third day of the battle said 10,000 Greeks had been killed or wounded, while the loss to Bulgaria was still heavier. "The fate of Bulgaria is tragic. I talked with the prime minister three days before the fight began. Bulgaria JACOB GOULD SCHURMAN. might have had旦 her allies with scarcely a word of controversy all Turkey in Europe from Techataja and the Black sea as far west as the Vardar river, with the exception of Salonik and a small bit to the north. But, although this was the larger share of the spoils, Bulgaria wanted more. She insisted that western Macedonia, which is the largest part of the territory east of the Vardar from the Turks, should be turned over to her. In trying to acquire this small addition of territory she not only failed in that undertaking, but lost a large part of the territory east of the Vardar river which the allies would willingly have assigned to her in the beginning. "As a result of the war with Bulgaria, Greece and Sivia gained a large portion of that territory on the western side and the Turkish forces moved northward to Adrianople and well up to the Aegean sea. After fighting two millions of dollars and losing thousands of soldiers Bulgaria finds herself impoverished, with only a fraction of the additional territory which would have come to her without effort or cost prior to her war upon the allies. "Greece has practically doubled her area and population. Her success has been due to the valor of her soldiers, the militarily genius of King Constantine and the capable administration of Prime Minister Venizelos. She had promised the allies at the beginning of the war to put 125,000 soldiers into the war, and actually had 250,000, and this number she retained in the war with Bulgaria. "I think the modern Greek soldiers were as brave and heroic as their ancestors who fought at Marathon and Salamis. King Constantine, I suppose, is the one monarch in the world capable of leading the armies of his country in time of war. Prime Minister Venizelos has shown himself a statesman and administrator of the first rank. Were he active in one of the great countries I have no doubt he would be a dominant international character." Hog and Dog Are Chums. Gulford, Mo.-At Sunnyshire farm, near here, is the largest hog in Missouri. It is of the Poland China breed and weighs 700 pounds and is seven feet five inches long and three feet four inches high. The smallest part of its leg is eleven inches in circumference. The hog, which answers to the name of "A Wonder's Equal," is gentle. His friend is a tiny dog, which visits the lot every day, where he leaps upon the back of the hog and rides around the lot. HOLDS COURT BY PHONE. With Receiver at Ear Judge Asks Questions and Gives Order. Questions and Gives Order. Denver. A tap of the balliff's gavel, followed by a loud "Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye!" brought a number of spectators to a halt in the first division of the district court. Court attaches assumed their accustomed places, and the first judgeless court ever held in Denver was in session. Judge J. E. Little, eighty miles away, was presiding. He was giving orders to the division clerk, Lyton Hubbard, over the long distance telephone from Colorado Springs. "Hello!" greeted his honor. "Is the court in session?" "The court is in session, your honor" replied Clerk Hubbard. "Take this message and enter it on the docker," said Judge Little. "The judgment in the case of Charles Miercourt against Charles and Blanche M. Snyder is set aside. The finding of the court is that the judgment was not regularly obtained. You may adjourn now." The judgment against the Snyders, amounting to $1,730, was awarded by a jury over which Judge Little presided last May. The judgment was set aside on the showing made by Snyder that he had not been officially bottled concerning the date of the trial and the case was allowed to go by default. NAME WOMEN IMMORTALS. Five Illustrious Females on List Pre- pared by Professor Matthews. Chicago. -- Professor Brander Matthews at the American Academy of Arts and Letters named five Americans who, he says, are eligible as "immortals." They are Ida M. Tarbell, research; Mary Wilkins Freeman, fiction; Edith Wharton, fiction; Mary Linging, and Margaret DeLand, fiction. "There are other women who might obviously be eligible," added Mr. Matthews, "but these five came first to my mind. "I want to put you right on the question of the admission of women to the 'immortals.' It has not been discussed at this session of the American Academy of Arts and Letters, because no woman has been proposed for membership. The subject has not come up officially for ten years, since the admission of Jula Ward Howe. I believe that women about whom there could be no question of worthness, but I believe it would be advisable for them to start an 'immortals' of their own." New York--Professor Supan of Gotha, whose annual "Bovorkering der Erd" is accounted the authority on the development of the population of the world at 1,623,300,000. During the year which ended June 30 last the ground, underground and overground transportation lines of New York carried more passengers by 146,589,284 than this total, tables made public by the public service commission giving the number of passengers as 1,769,889,284. By boroughs the traffic was distributed as follows: Manhattan, 1,112,908,889; Brooklyn, 521,238,913; Bronx, 741,711,453; Queens, 47,467,014; Richmond, 13,578,066. The year's increase for the city was 90,074,580, which is almost equal to the population of the United States. The figures for the subway and elevated lines in Manhattan are regarded by the engineers of the commission as being the most significant in the new tables. For the first time the subway carried more passengers than the elevated lines, its total being 327,471,510 more than 1,000,000 each working day. The elevated lines carried 306,845,006. a gain of only 2,747,185. when the subway opened 307,658,006 during the commencement of July 17" exceeded the subway by 1,292,985. BRIDE'S WEIGHT IS 560.

Woollett, weight 133 pounds, of Ornsby, Wis. and Miss Ama Gene Bare, weight 500 pounds, of Olympia. Wash. the bride being the heaviest woman in the west. Miss Bergina Delhoyo was bridesmaid, while acting as best man was James Boyd. Both contracting parties are with a carnival company, but have been acquainted for sixteen years. They attended school together. The ceremony was performed by Deputy Treasurer C. C. Gibson, formerly a minister of the Church of Christ. A handsome silver service was given to the bride by members of the carnival company following the marriage. Rat Short Circuits Current. Argos, Ind.-The charred body of a rat explained the reason for the sudden going out of electric lights here. Argos gets its current from Rochester, south, in Fulton county, and lights there were affected. The rat's body formed a short circuit that played havoc with the lighting system. ST. PAUL AND MINN. APOLIS. MINN.. SATURDAY. JANUARY 24, 1914. CITIZENS ICE & FUEL COMPANY CITIZENS ICE & FUEL COMPANY Ice House of Citizens Ice and Fuel Company on Lake Vadnais. Now in Course of Construction. $50,000 Citizens Ice and Fuel Company This company offers $50,000 of its Capital Stock, par value $50 per share, for immediate delivery. Applications received for share reservations at the offices of the company, No. 8 West Fourth street, St. Paul, Minn., beginning January 2, 1914. Subscriptions will be accepted for one or more shares, payable in five installments. The authorized Capital Stock of the Citizens Ice and Fuel company is $500,000. It is the aim and purpose of this company to give the St. Paul investing public the first opportunity of taking advantage of its share offerings and it now invites public subscription to this block of stock. This issue is made to provide for the completion of our ice houses and the purchase of additional equipment, such as horses, wagons, trucks, etc. The Citizens Ice and Fuel company is an independent St. Paul company which has now been in existence about three months. Its business is dealing in Ice and Fuel—two very important public necessities. It has a twenty-year franchise from the City of St. Paul, which gives it the exclusive right to harvest its ice on Lake Vadnais, owned by the City of St. Paul. The harvesting of ice from this lake is under the supervision of the City Water and Health departments, thus insuring absolutely pure ice to the consumer at a nonprohibitive price. There is room and necessity for a competitive ice company in St. Paul. The Citizens Ice and Fuel company is founded and run on sound business principles. It is now constructing one of the main ice houses at Lake Vadnais and will have all necessary storage facilities complete in good season for this year's ice harvest. The Citizens Ice and Fuel company took over the business of the Womack-Fooshe Coal company, October 1st, 1913. The Fuel department is gaining in volume of business every day. The company owns a block of property in the rear of the plant of the White Enamel Refrigerator company, having a frontage of 487 feet on spur track of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway, which is to be converted into a coal yard April 1st, 1914; ice house, stable and lots at corner Dale and Maryland streets; a block of twenty lots, corner Arundel and Stinson streets; coal yards at Como avenue and Elfelt streets; is building an ice storage house at Lake Vadnais 350 feet by 150 feet; owns a twenty-year franchise on Lake Vadnais. The ice season is practically but six months and the coal business six months. As this company combines the sale and delivery of fuel with its ice business, it gives it an active business throughout the year, thereby eliminating waste expense due to idle seasons. The Fuel department is doing a profitable business and we have already started regular deliveries of ice. By reason of the necessity arising for an additional city ice service and the interest taken by leading citizens and Federated Women leagues of St. Paul—who are buyers of both ice and fuel—the Citizens Ice and Fuel company's policy has been to place its shares in small blocks with local investors. This means that every such shareholder is directly interested in the welfare of this corporation and automatically helps to place the stock on a good dividend paying basis. Statistics collected show that public service corporations are the safest and best paying investments now offered the public. The Citizens Ice and Fuel company, in offering its stock, which is all "Common" and equal, knows that this is an exceptional opportunity for investors to participate in a sound and permanent investment, sure to yield substantial dividends. If you are a bank depositor your money earns from 3% to 4%. Do you realize that an investment where the earning is sure to be more than 6% that it is 50% more than 4% and 100% more than 3%? Do you appreciate that bankers invest in public utility corporations with your money? Why not protect yourself by investing direct, and thus double or treble your income?

Washington. - Secretary McAdoo is urging upon congress a plan to combine in one building the auditing staffs of the several executive departments. He would utilize the big structure about to be vacated by the bureau of engraving and printing. While the cost of remodeling would approximate $73,000, he declares the government would save about $55,000 a year in rent now for the use of quarters in business blocks. Auditors for the interior and navy departments now share one building while those for the state and other departments occupy another. The clerical forces are divided, and a loss in efficiency is the result, according to Mr. McAdoo.

Newport News, Va.—Neglect of religion by the United States in its navy is a reproach to the republic. Secretary Daniels declared here in an address before the United Brotherhood of Men's Bible Classes. The secretary announced that he would ask congress immediately to provide chaplains and welfare secretaries proportionate to the navy's personnel. Twenty-four chaplains, he said, are all that the government now provides to look after the religious welfare of the 57,000 men, the number of chaplains of 57,000 men, the number increased since 1842, when the proclamation of the navy numbered only 12,000 men. The secretary added that more than seventy-five important ships in the navy have no religious leader attached, while the marine corps, with an entitlement of 10,226 men, has not a single chaplain to look after the spiritual development of its personnel. FEWER WORKING OVERTIME. Better Hours For Employees, Making Trains Safer. Washington.—"Violations of the law limiting the service of train employees on American railroads to sixteen consecutive hours go to the very heart of the efficiency and safety of train operation," said Charles C. McChord, commissioner, commenting upon a statement issued by the interstate commerce commission analyzing the monthly reports of interstate railroads on hours of service in the fiscal year ended June 30, 1913. Nearly 300,000 violations of the sixteen hour limit were reported by 269 railroads in the year. It must be remembered, however, that 251,111 men were employed in handling trains. "As a result of the prosecutions instituted by the commission," the analysis points out, "the number of instances of excess service reported during the last six months, as compared with the corresponding figures for preceding years, has shown a marked re $2.40 PER YEAR. Three New Machines, a Burgess, a Wright and a Curtis; All Equipped With Foreign Engines, Will Be Tried Out-Special Badge Given as License—Several Anxious to Try. Washington—October has been set for the month, but no definite date has yet been set for the trial of the new flying machines that will be tested for the army at the Wright factory at Dayton, O. Lieutenant Thomas Milling will be officially detailed to supervise the tests. It is probable that General George P. Scriven, chief signal officer of the army, and possibly some other officers of the army also will attend. There will be three of the new machines—a Burgess, a Wright and a Curtis—all equipped with foreign engines. The motors will run from 90 to 140 nominal horsepower and will be the most powerful ever installed in government machines. None of these new machines will be intrusted to any but the officers who have qualified for Photo @ by American Press Association. LIEUTENANT THOMAS MILLING. the military aviator certificate. The older machines will be reserved for training. The army has decided on the design and obtained one specimen of the military aviator's badge. It is considered the handsome thing in the way of a badge that the government has ever assigned. It has a plain gold bar with the words "Military Aviator" in black enamel. Beneath the bar there hangs an eagle with extended wings carrying in his claws crossed signal flags in gold and platinum. Several of the students officers in the Philippines are just ready to try for their military pilot's license. They are Lieutenants Chapman of the Seventh cavalry, Rich of the Philippine scouts and Dargue of the coast artillery. They have all been trained as aviators under Lieutenant Frank of the first army officers to be trained by Lieutenant at College Park. Lieutenant Talm has not been flying continuously, but he is in point of service the oldest military aviator in the world. Another of the student aviators who are about to take their military test is Lieutenant E. L. Ellington at San Diego. According to present arrangements, when the officers have qualified as military aviators they will be retained at their posts to act as instructors to other student aviators detailed to the service. Some of the older men probably will be sent this fall to the main aviation center at San Antonio, Tex. Considerable interest has been around not only the aviation but throughout the army, by the issue of the new army signal book by the signal corps. This contains the American Morse and the international Morse, the flag, lantern, Ardolie lights and all the other systems of signalling used in the army. It is the essential manual of army signalling. The revised edition has been compiled by General Scriven, the chief signal officer of the army. One of the interesting features of the rush for the little book is the general desire of the boy scouts for the aviation problem, the country seem to be going in for it, judging by the mass of applications they have died for the book. After the house committee on military affairs had thoroughly discussed the aviation problem last week it was practically decided to make no change in the present arrangement in the army, but to leave the aviation work under the signal corps, where it has heretofore been.

It looks as if Senator Vardaman of Mississippi is the real President of the United States, at least that he is dictating the reactionary jimcrow policy which has President Wilson bound hand and foot. Years ago, many Afro-Americans who felt secure in their rights minimized the power of Vardaman when he was making his "white man" campaign and said that it would never be possible for such a creature as he to influence the policy of this great government, but now we are face to face with the fact that Vardaman actually controls the government of the United States. He has just delivered to President Wilson his ultimatum that he will fight any "Negro nominations" to the bitter end. Vardaman, who talks so much about a "white man's government" boasts of his Indian blood and it is also rumored that he has negro blood in his veins and he certainly looks as much like a negro as many men whom he acils "Negroes." If Woodrow Wilson is President, he ought to have the courage to treat every class of American citizens in accordance with the principles of the "New Freedom" of which he has written and talked so much. He swore to do it when he took his oath of office. He should order the discontinuance of segregation of the races in the government departments and he should nominate colored men for office and stand by his nominations by recess appointments until he wins. The cause for Vardaman's latest outbreak is the fact that Municipal Judge Robert H. Terrill is a candidate for reappointment. Judge Terrill was endorsed by 300 of the clergywaters of Washington and 20 or more of the leading law firms wrote personal letters to the President in his favor, it being unanimously conceded that he is the best municipal judge in the city. He is also recommended by Attorney General McReynolds. We are not anarchistic and don't favor any unlawful methods in any 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. case, but certainly if some black man would in some way assist old Vardaman to suddenly start on his trip to Hades, we would shed no briny tears and would hall him as a hero. That all of the whites do not indorse Vardaman's ideas is shown in the following editorial from the St. Paul Dispatch: LET COLORED JUDGE STAY. President Wilson has a hard time of it placating the Southern fire-eaters who see red every time it is proposed to help the Negro. But he has gone far enough in that direction and public opinion will back him up in his apparent determination to reappoint Robert R. Terrell, a Negro, as municipal judge of the District of Columbia. The public will be the more anxious that Judge Terrell be continued in office because Senator Vardaman of Mississippi has served notice on the President that he will oppose the appointment. It is nothing to Vardaman that Terrell has served well as municipal judge. It is nothing to Vardaman that the retention of Judge Terrell in office will be an inspiration to other colored men in their struggle upward. Terrell is a a "nigger" and that damms him in Vardaman's eyes. If there could be a more narrow viewpoint than this, it has not been disclosed. Instead of condemning Terrell, Vardaman condemns himself and that section of the white race which, instead of encouraging the colored race, employs every means to keep the shackles on the Negro. Let President Wilson reappoint Judge Terrell. "A WISH AND A HOPE." William Ward Hayes, the veteran editor of The Independent (New York), has a forceful and interesting article in the 65th Anniversary number entitled, "A Wish and a Hope," in which he outlines his ideas of the future conduct of the magazine. He indicates some of the evils and injustices to which too many are blind in the order of their importance and he gives race prejudice the first place, as shown in the following quotation from his article: "First, the selfish cruelty which condemns and penalizes socially and politically millions of our people because of their color. This hideous injustice debases or attempts to debase, one-eighth of our native citizens because they have more or less Negro blood. It also insults the three mightiest empires of Asia, China, Japan and India, blocks our success in our island possessions, and invites our only danger of war. I would have The Independent fight this un-Christian spirit, not occasionally and half heartedly, but earnestly and persistently." The Afro-Americans of this country owe a debt of gratitude to Dr. Hayes, because he has never 'failed as a strong advocate of justice without regard to color, during the sixty years he has edited The Independent THE RACE IS RISING. The greatest fakers the world has produced have been Caucasians. They have fleeced their brethren out 0.8 billion of dollars by means of all sorts of schemes from religion to tango. It would require too much space to even name the many plans of separating their victims from their coin. Some time since one Charles A. Lomax, an Afro-American, became a little envious of the Caucasians who were extracting the "long green" from their confiding brethren and concluded that he could do something along that line himself. Bomax conceived the idea of teaching colored men to be Pullman porters by mail. Students sent in their money from all over the country. The postoffice inspectors say he promised to get them positions and failed to make good. He was held to the grand jury. RACE PREJUDICE. I am convinced myself, evil thing in this present justice; none at all. I am the worst single thing and holds together more abomination than any other world.

I write deliberately—it is the worst single thing in life now. It justifies and holds together more baseness, cruelty and abomination than any other sort of error in the world. Through its body runs the black blood of coarse lust, suspicion, jealousy and persecution and all the darkest poisons of the human raised against injustice, the inquisition yet would millotines decide our last we must speak and speak songs of many. Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Lomax was evidently a rather versatile fellow. His course included: Theory and practice of moral susion as applied to tipping. Aesthetics of whiskrooming. Art of bedmaking. The human smile and how to use it in extracting the coin. THE APPEAL reprinta in this issue a portion of the article on "The President and Segregation at Washington," which appeared in the North American Review for December. In it Oswald Garrison Villard, the author, who is a grandson of the great abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison, takes the Wilson Administration to task for the great injustice of trying to establish castle in the republic. Every reader of THE APPEAL ought to purchase a copy of the North American Review, read the entire article and preserve the copy for his children's children to read. Now what do you think of this's Robert Threat of Arkansas was accused of misreting a 14-year-old white girl. He was sentenced to hang last July, but appealed to the Suprem eCourt and was granted a new trial and last week was sentenced to 20 years imprisonment. It is strange that he ever had a trial and stranger still that after being sentenced to hang he was allowed to escape that penalty. Are the bloodthirsty Southerners getting better? Brig-Gen. John J. Pershing, former military governor of Mindanao, says that the Moros of the Philippine Islands have been pacified and that they will be good unless someone attempts to interfere with the Mohammed religion. There is no reason why Americans should attempt to convert the Moros. They have a good religion and they are too shrewd to accept the jimcrow Christianity of the American Caucasians. The Afro-American of the District of Columbia ought to see to it that Judge Bundy of the Municipal Court is not reappointed. Any man who is so biased and full of race prejudice ought not to be a judge in a city having an Afro-American population of 100,000. A strong protest should be made against his appointment. He is not fit to be a judge. Mrs. La Follette, wife of Senator La Follette, deserves the gratitude of the Afro-American people for her courage in fighting segregation. She has even endangered her husband's chances for the presidency, but she did not hesitate. Knowing that she was right she dared to champion the cause of the oppressed. Alfred Noyes, an English poet, declares that the age is drifting into materialism and away from idealism, on which poetry and the finer sensibilities are founded. In this materialism lies danger of intellectual disintegration. "The race is looking at life from an angle instead of full upon its beauty." Do not give up the fight on segregation. Continue to write letters of protest to the president and members of the cabinet. Postmaster General Burleson seems to have more segregation in his department so the battery of letters should be turned on him. The Richmond Planet says that it does not believe in the slogan, "Back to the Farm," or in going backward at all. The Planet's idea is to keep going forward. Right you are, Brother Mitchell. Some of the religious cranks are becoming greatly agitated over the "menace of Socialism." How about the menace of jimcrow Christianity? Keep up the protests against segregation. self that there is no more ont world than Race Pre- write deliberately—it is in life now. It justifies more baseness, cruelty and other sort of error in the body runs the-black blood on, jealousy and persecu- st poisons of the human Wells in N. Y. Independent. On October 16, 1912, Woodrow Wilson, then the Democratic nominee for president, declared that: "Should I become President of the United States, they (the colored people) count upon me for absolute fair dealing and for everything by which I could assist in advancing the interstate race in the United States." This statement eloquently plate satisfaction to those leaders of the colored people and the friends of the race who were urging them to leave from their thirldom to the Republican party on the ground that the country would profit most by the election of the Democratic ticket. Qualified observers believe that more colored men voted the Democratic ticket in 1912 than ever before. It was with dismay, therefore, that early in the Administration of Mr. Wilson, whose Cabinet is equally between, Southerners and Northerners, in certain quarters a distinct hostility to the colored people. For a long time no appointments of Negroes were made by the President. Then nominated Adam E. Patterson of the Treasury, a leader of the Treasury, a place long held by colored men. Patterson's nomination was the signal for outbursts from the most violent negrophobes in the Senators like Hoke Smith of Georgia, Tillman of South Carolina, and others, declaring that Patterson should not be confirmed, or any other colored man, for an office which would put women clerks. With object cowardice, he asked the White House and demanded that his name be withdrawn. Unwilling at this time to meet the issue thus raised, Mr. Wilson consented to his appointment to President Cleveland and Roosevelt, in circumstances, put the responsibility on the Senate by continuing to nominate the colored candidates for office and by giving them recess appointments. The Senate was not in session. Instead, Mr. Wilson appointed a Cherokee Indian as Register. "that it would give the Negroes an opportunity of national dimensions, to prove their fitness to run, unaided by whites, an important bureau of the Department." Just why this benefit was so apparent as soon as it appeared that an Indian, a colored man was to head the division has not appeared; if it had all the merit claimed for it, the colored people should not have been deprived of the opportunity of collectively demoralizing, for worth, which, in the individual, is long known to all familiar with the Government's operations. out of its way to stamp them publicly as leopers, as physically and morally contagious and unit for association with white people. Among them are the Fort Wagner, an Army Fort Wagner, of the Crater of Petersepelt, orors of the trumpul march into Richmond of General Godfrey Weitzel's black brigade; certainly brothers and sisters of the black troopers who were good enough to die alongside of white men; and they play at San Juan Hill are now learning to know the gratitude of Republics. These colored people who are thus branded are not rousabouts, or corner loafers, or worthless laborers. They are educated men and women, from all over the country, many of them, from their civil service examinations and entered the Government's employ with full faith in its justice, asking merely the right to serve on equal terms with their fellows. The readers understand the bitter review, Review will understand the bitter review, the segregation issues if they can imagine themselves set apart as unworthy by brute authority, but they can hardly appreciate the added sense of injury which comes from the fact the Federal Government. The colored government as borne as patiently as the children of Israel bore their burdens, the wrongs of disfranchisement, the lynchings and burnings of innocent and gully, the humiliation of the "Jim Crow" the humiliation of the "Jim Crow" low whites; these were the acts of individuals or of States lately in rebellion. But that the Federal Government, under whose flag they have fought in every war, under whose aegis they are working, which struck now take the side of the oppressors in the year of the fiftieth anniversary of Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation—this is what hurts and ranks beyond all else. Is it any wonder that one of the leaders of the race of natives has never seen his people so discouraged and so embittered as to day? They rightly declare—as must every fair-minded man free from prejudice—that this spells castle. They believe that it is intended to drive them out of the public service by renaming it Negroes with self-respect; they assert that the Assistant Secretaries of the Treasury has already held up the promotion of two colored clerks because of their color. Segregation is, beyond doubt, an entering wing, and here is the chief significance of it all. Let me explain. If you want to shall say what the outcome will be to what lengths despotic officials will take their way by means of discrimination, intimidation, by aboveboard or underhand methods? Who shall prophesy to what extent this caste idea may not be developed in the decoration of the city, but shall be set apart contrary to the spirit of the civil-service law and of the Constitution itself, why not others—Jews, for instance? * * * * * * * * * Indeed, it may come to pass that Mr. Wilson will go down to history as the man who set in motion terrible forces without adequate conception or provision of the dangers he was inviting. What he does not see is that if only one colored man or woman has been segregated it gives the delibereate lie to Mr. Wilson's promise to advance the interests of the race and violates his pledge of absolute fair dealing. The men who defended the defenders of this Government's reputation for honor and of the rights of the colored people, but those subordinates who by their official actions have made dubious the President's word. Wittingly or unwittingly the Wilson Administration has allied itself with the forces of reaction, and has been the creator, of every oppressor, of every perpetrator of racial injustice in the South or the North. * * * * * But the folly of raising this race issue does not stop there. It differs but very little from the one that rent the Union. The great struggle which convulsed the United States was, in its simplest forms, armies of aristocracy of cotton and land to create two classes of human beings in this country, the slaves and the free. They were willing to sacrifice the Union and everything else to this end. Those who in this day and gen- Knowles Building Boys' Hall. Stone Hall. Girl's Hall. Model Home. ATLANTA UNIVERSITY. Atlanta.
