STEFANSSON NOW READY FOR START WILL REMAIN FOUR YEARS. Party Will Study Blond Eskimos and Gather Scientific and Geographical Data About Arctic Sea and Vast Unexplored Regions Between Bering Strait and the North Pole. New York.—Vilhjalmur Stefannsson, who discovered the blond Eskimos, in announcing his plans for his coming four year expedition in the north, said that it would be the party's object to gather geographical and scientific data about the vast unexplored territory between Bering Strait and the north pole and between the western border of the arctic archipelago and the known open sea north of Siberia. "We shall start from the navy yard at Esquimalt, Victoria, for Bering strait in the first week of June, in the underADER Karikul, of 247 tons, proceeding to the north coast of Alaska," he said the expedition, planned as a private American expedition, has been taken out by the Canadian government, which has enabled us to double its size. "I have engaged as oceanographers James Murray of Glasgow, who was [Image of a young man in a suit with a tie]. the biologist with Shackleton in the British antarctic expedition. Dr A. Forbes Mackay of Edinburgh, who was Shackleton's surgeon. Two anthropologists engaged are Henri Beuchat, a Frenchman, a specialist in American archaeology and anthropology, and Dr. Edward Janess, who is now on his way from New Zealand. Dr Fritz Johansen, a Dane, will go as zoologist. The second in command will be Dr. R. M. Anderson of the American Museum of Natural History. The skipper of the Karluk will be Captain C. T. Pedersen, a whaler of twenty years' experience, who will pick a crew of fourteen or fifteen holders. "My experience shows that explorers and best live off the country. As far north as hand has been discovered there is plenty of bear, caribou, musk ox, seal and walrus. The provisions taken will be grains, like rice and oats, and only dried fruit. "One of the big things will be the study of the blond Eskimos, and we are going to ascertain the depth of the arctic sea, character of its bottom, direction and speed of its currents, temperature of the water, its salinity and its vegetable and animal life." Mr. Stefoumpson expects to be gone for years, but may in summer send the ice to the Antarctic. Whether the territory to be explored is open sea, a continent or a series of islands is one of the few remaining mysteries of the world today, according to the explorer. The thirteenth ton schooner Teddy Beam may be used as an auxiliary for establishing a base on Victoria island in the arctic, for discovering metals and studying tribes. If the Karikul should come across and the party may establish a base upon it. Mr. Stefandon Jr., the child of Icelandic parents, was born at Wimpipeg in 1878, was graduated from the University of Anderson, Anderson in 1883 and afterward beochained in the thrology at Harvard. In 1908 he went with Dr. Anderson to the arctic, spent four years there and discovered the blood Eskimos, who, he says, cannot be descendants of whalers or survivors of the Franklin expedition. History on a Vase. Berkeley, Cal.-Lost for a half century, a Greek vase dating back to the sixth century before Christ has been discovered in the anthropological museum of the University of California, and through the discovery Professor Olive M. Wachter of the department of classical archaeology is able to amplify records of history and mythology. From this black figured Attic vase, which was given to the university by Mrs. Phoebe A. Hearst, the story of the killing of the son of Priam has been deciphered. CAT IS GOOD ALARM CLOCK. When Si> o'Clock Whistle Blows Animal Awakens Master Sharon, Pa.—Mark Moeller, a steel worker of near Farrell, would not trade his pet Maitese cat for the best alarm clock ever invented. He vouchens for the story that within the last year he has not once arrived late at his work, while before Tom came into the family circle he was frequently tardy. Moeller's cat wakens him every morning at 6 o'clock, and if he turns ever for just a few more winks the feline begins clawing at the covers until Moeller arises. Moeller used to have an alarm clock. Sometimes he would forget to wind it. He would oversleep and arrive late at work. There is a whistle at a factory by, and this always blows at 6 o'clock; the cat knows when the whistle blows it is time for Moeller to arise, and it jumps to the bed and stays there until the sleep is aroused. The cat has been more reliable than the clock and has not missed awakening Moeller except Sundays for several months. TEETH IDENTIFY SKELETON. Dental Work Shows That Bones Belong to Lost Girl. Albuquerque, N. M. —The finding of a woman's skeleton in lonely Los Hueras, canyon, thirty miles from this city, explains the disappearance on Nov. 14, 1911, of Margaret Greb, twenty-two, daughter of John Greb, a carpenter, who afterward went insane over the loss of his daughter, while a brother contracted tuberculosis from exposure in the search and died. The girl started out for a walk in the hills, lost her way when night went dark, and although the mountains and messes were searched for a trace of her, none was found. The skeleton, which was found stripped clean of flesh and clothing, was identified by a gold filling in the teeth. Cyclone City Objects to "Fake" Stories About Relief Given. Omaha — Relief to the value of $1,250,000 has been received for the benefice of the sufferers from Omaha's big Easter cyclone. This sum includes cost, supplies, labor, automobile and hospital service, tornado insurance and everything that was done for the victims to help them. The biggest single item on the list is the $500,000 in tornado insurance carried by the losers. Insurance companies have been very liberal in their amounts of losses and many homes in Omaha are now being rebuilt which otherwise would have remained in ruins. The second largest item is that of cash contributed from all sources. This amounts to $470,000 and will doubtlessly reach the half million mark before the fund is closed. This $470,000 was raised almost entirely in Omaha itself. Many donations were sent in from Nebraska towns and the state of Nebraska contributed $40,000. New York city's donations amounted to $80,000. San Francisco, to which city was the first in the Union to send donations to the earthquake and fire, sent Omaha jails. This was an individual subscription from the editor of a labor paper. On the afternoon following the earthquake Omaha started a special train of supplies and provisions and a large amount of cash to San Francisco. The great american Red Cross society has not aided Omaha to the extent of a single dollar, although Omaha hears frequently of subscriptions being handed to that institution for the tornado sufferers. Omaha is not kidding against the Red Cross for nonassistance, but does object to the stories spread country telling of the quickness and speed with which the Red Cross leaped into Omaha and did wonderful deeds of relief. BEES KILL 200 PULLETS. Honey Gatherer Also Give Auto Party a Hot Time. Porterville, Cal.-Two hundred pulets belonging to W. F. Weems, a poutry raise in the Piano district, were stung to death when a swarm of bees attacked them. The bees, which belong to the Kern County Land company, are brought to this district every year during the orange blossom season. Besides the chickens which were killed, several score of others were so badly stung that they will also die. After the bees had attached the chickens they continued down the road and attacked an automobile party. The bees were so thick that after the car had emerged from the swarm the tonneau was covered with them. Ball of Live Snakes. Peru, Ind.-Joseph Spangler and Robert Stanley, Chesapeake and Ohio railroad employees, found a ball of snakes near a pond in West Peru and killed twelve of the reptiles. The men were led to the snakes by a small one that came to the track, and when they struck an edge, they made a dash for the ball, which was at least foot in diameter. Some of the snakes were five feet long. THE APPEAL. Minnesota Historical Society ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN., SATURDAY. JANUARY 31, 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.

Subscriptions will be accepted for one or more shares payable in five installments. The authorized Capital Stock of the Citizens Ice and Pulp 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 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 Dividend-Earning Capacity 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%?

FLIES OVER PANAMA CANAL Fowler Makes Trip From Pacific to Atlantic In Fifty-five Minutes. Panama.-Robert G. Fowler, the gyllator, successfully flew from the Pacific over the canal in a hydrocarpole with a passenger, landing at the Atlantic side in fifty-five minutes. A picture was taken of the operator and machine in motion. The flight has frequently been termed impossible on account of the air currents over Culebra. Fowler flew directly over the cut and was able to carry out various evolutions despite wind obstacles. Leaving Panama Beach at 9:45 a.m. he circled over Panama City and the canal's entrance for awhile, then rose high and steered toward Colon, where he encountered a twenty-five mile breeze. In continuing to Cristobal the motor suddenly stopped, after missing fire through the gasoline giving out. Fowler succeeded in landing with one on a reef. The pontoon was torn, but otherwise the machine was undamaged. ST. PAUL MINN. offers $50,000 of its Capital Stock, and reservations at the offices of the City in 1914. Subscriptions will be accepted.

Philadelphia — Replying to a question put by a clergyman at the weekly meeting of Presbyterian ministers, Professor Eric Doolittle, director of the University of Pennsylvania's astronomical observatory, said he thought that life on this earth would come to an end in about 15,000,000 years. Professor Doolittle had been making an address to "Astronomy." In reference to the end of the earth's life he said. "Unless some supernatural power or being interferes or the earth comes in contact with another planet or heavenly body the earth will exist for 15,000,000 more years. "The earth is dependent upon the sun for its heat and light, although the earth now contains some heat itself. When the sun eventually cools off the result will be darkness and cold, which will bring an end to all life, animal and vegetable." --- ear value $50 per share, for immens- t company, No. 8 West Fourth street for one or more shares, payable o- n behalf of Fuel company is $500,000.

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 six months, as compared with the corresponding figures for preceding years, has shown a marked reduction." $2,40 PER YEAR. POOR OVERTAXED MILLIONS A YEAR Representative Hull of Tennessee see Defends Income Levy. CARNEGIE AN "EXAMPLE." Author of Income Tax Measure Declares That Public is Compelled to Pay $1,500,000,000 Annually Into Pockets of "Selected Individuals." Properties Assessed Too Low. Washington.—"The richer a person grows the less he pays in relation to his property or income. Experience has shown that under the present tax system personal property practically escapes taxation for either local or state purposes." These statements were made in the house by Representative Hull of Tennessee in defending the income tax, which is carried in the Underwood tariff bill and is estimated to yield the government $70,000,000 a year in revenues. Andrew Carnegie is singled out as a shining example of the rich who escape taxation. He holds $400,000,000 of United States Steel corporation securities. Until recently he has paid state taxes on $5,000,000 of personal wealth. New York city authorities have increased this assessment recently to $10,000,000. "The rich investor," said Mr. Hull, "the money lender, the wealthy busi- ness and professional men, cover up most of their taxable property. The intangible personal stock, bonds and other securities escape taxation almost entirely." According to Mr. Hull, manufacturers have been in a tariff partnership with the government and have waxed fat. For more than half a century there has been a constant struggle by the wealthy to shift the burden of taxation to the shoulders and backs of those weaker, poorer and less influential citizens. Statistical property valuations were given by Mr. Hull to show that wealth is not being taxed and is not bearing its fair burden. The census investigation, 1904, in New York reported that the city had about $5,500,000,000 of personality, and the returns for taxation were about $1,500,000,000. The Kentucky tax commission reported in January, 1912, that the total amount of bank deposits from which the assessors were to make up their taxation lists against the depositors and taxpayers was about $12,000,000. The bank statement to the comptroller for the same month placed these deposits at $133,000,000. The mayor of Philadelphia recently told the council's there that property in that city had been undervalued more than 900,000,000. The census reports in 1904 that real property at $107,000,000,000. The aloem assessment was $29,000,000,000. The value of personal wealth was placed at $44,000,000,000. It was assessed for taxation purposes at $9,000,000,000. Hull charged that under the former scheme of taxation the government, in forcing the people to turn over for government maintenance about $300,000, 000 annually, gave a bonus of about $1,500,000 a year to selected individuals who were given special favors by the high protective tariff tax. The income was made of the charge that the financial was段ed as sectional in character. Hull argued that wealth had made itself sectional. Five-year-old Girl Prodigy.

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 calls "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 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 elowers 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. That all of the whites do not indorse Vardaman's ideas is shown in the following editorial from the St. Paul. Dinatatch: PROTEST AGAINST WRONG. To submit in silence makes cowards out of The human race has Had no voice been a ignorance and lust; th serve the law, and gu disputes. The few who dare, again to right the wro To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has omfed 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. 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 H. 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. CONFUCIANISM IN CHINA Confucianism has been made the state religion of China by the administrative council of the republic, although all religions are to be tolerated. It is understood that the president's intention is to set an example to the Chinese nation, which he thinks needs the moral influence of religion. The president will worship at the temple of Confucius and at the Temple of Heaven annually in the same way as the Manchu emperors did, but without wearing the diadem. One religion is as good as another and sometimes better and any old religion is better than the hypocritical force of Christianity as exemplified by Caucasian American Christians. Christianity is the state religion in many countries so it was rather presumptuous for the Christian missionaries to oppose the Chinese in having a state religion. The Chinese have acted wisely in having their own religion and not accepting the religion of the people who are doing everything in their power to degrade them. The opium traffic carried on by the British came near ruining the Chinese people, but England's aristocrats had to have the gold even if each coin represented a Chinese soul. Many alleged Christian nations, including the United States, have laws restricting Chinese immigration; Great Britain, an alleged Christian country, helped herself to Hong Kong some fifty years ago, Russia, an alleged Christian nation, gobbled up Manchuria; Germany, whose kaiser claims to rule by divine right, occupies a Chinese port; France, an alleged Christian nation, has appropriated a slice of Chinese territory and even little Portugal holds Macau. The shrewd Chinese realized that if they accepted Christianity they would at once be lowered in the estimation of the Christian world, that the Christians would probably proceed to enlarge their "spheres of influence" until their country would be Christianized out of existence. Wise Chinese! THE RACE IS RISING. The greatest fakers the world has produced have been Caucasians. They have fleeced their brethren out 6. billions 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 RACE PREJUDICE.

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. Lomax was evidently a rather versatile fellow. His course included: Theory and practice of moral sua Theory ahd practice of moral susa- sion as applied to tipping. Aesthetics of whiskbrooming. Art of bedmaking. The human smile and how to use it in extracting the coin. THE APPEAL reprints 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 caste 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. We have read with great interest a recent article from the pen of Israel Zangwill, author of the "Melting Pot." It includes among other things the official report of the aliens admitted to the United States in the year ending June 30, 1913. Among the over forty different nationalities that want to make up the sum total of 1,427,227 immigrants it will doubtless surprise many to know that there were 9,734 Africans. The smallest number were Pacific Islanders, 27 and the largest Italians, 318,519. Now what do you think of this? Robert Threat of Arkansas was accused of mistreating a 14-year-old white girl. He was sentenced to hang last July, but appealed to the Suprem e court 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 bloodfirstly Southerners getting better? It is said that President Wilson wishes to show the Afro-Americans that he is not inimical to them. He can do it easily and without fear from the opposition of Vardaman. Mr. President, just pass the word down the line that there is to be no more segregation in the service of the United States government; revoke the separate toilet order and declare that Afro-Americans are to be treated just the same as other classes of Americans. 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 Mohammedan 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 jimcorw Christianity of the American Caucasians. Instead of being eliminated the lynchers are following up-to-date methods in the South's favorite diversion. At Purcell, Oklahoma, recently, a mob in an automobile proceeded to the jail, took therefrom a colored man CHARGED with murder, carried him to Noble and hanged him. President Wilson could end segregation in the departments with a single word. Will he have the courage to give it? Keep up the protests against segregation. self that there is no more ent world than Race Pre- write deliberately—it is in life now. It justifies are baseness, cruelty and other sort of error in the body runs the black blood in, jealousy and persecu- st poisons of the human Wells in N. Y. Independent. Oswald Garrison Villard, Grandson of William Lloyd Garrison, Writes a Strong Article for the North American Review, On October 15, 1912, Woodrow Wilson, then the Democratic nominee for President, declared that: "Should I become President of the United States (the colored people) may count upon me the fair dealing and for everything behind me could assist in advancing the interests of their race in the United States." This utterance gave complete satisfaction to those leaders of the colored people and the friends of the colored people were urging them to break away from the Republican party and to vote for the Governor of New Jersey on the ground that the country would profit most by the election of the Democrat. Qualified observers believe that many 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 divided, between Southerners and Northeners, became noticeable in certain quarters, and was referred to the colored people. For a long time no appointments of Negroes were made by the President. Then he nominated Adam E. Patterson of North Carolina, and Regis of the Treasury, a place 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 called 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 residence, residents Cleveland and Roosevelt, and his circumstances, put the responsibility on the Senate by continuing to nominate the colored candidates for office and by giving them recess appointments when he was not in session. Instead, Mr. Wilson was a Cherokee Indian as Register. * * * When a group of citizens holds so few Federal offices as do the colored people, each one takes on a significance far beyond any question of the nature of the office, and is attached to it. This is particularly the posts of the Minister to Hayti and San Domingo. Not one of the stock Southern objections to Negro appointments holds here; these ministers are罕见的 people, and indeed people where the bogus of socialization is raised. Under Mr. Wilson both of these posts have gone, temporarily, it is said, and doubtless for reasons satisfactory to Mr. Bryan, to white men. The colored people at large accepted the office, and the Government House that the remaining offices he tore from to colored men were to be taken from them. Alarming as this was, on top of it came the startling news that for the first time in the race preinduce was having taken in some of the Departments at Washington. What had not been dreamed of under Mr. Cleveland, though begun in one office under Mr. Taft, was the segregation of Negro clerks, and women. It appeared that the Secretary of the Treasury had planned to put Patterson at the head of an exclusively colored division upon the plea: to use Mr. McAdoo's own words, "The opportunity of national dimensions prove their fitness to run, unadied by whites, an important bureau of the Department." Just why this benefit understated was dropped as soon as the opportunity of national dimensions 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 demanding their worth, which, in the individual sense, has been known to all familiar with the Government's operations. mond of General_Godfrey_Weitzel's black brigade; certainly brothers and sisters of the black troopers who were men in naval dress to do alongside of white men in naval dress at San Juan Hill are now learning to know the gratitude of Republics. These colored people who are thus branded are not routabouts, or corner leathers, or worthless laborers, or college graduates men and women, college graduates women, from all over the country who have 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 of The North Star understand the bitter humiliation of the segregation orders if they can imagine themselves set apart as unworthy by brute authority, but they can hardly appreciate the added sense of burry which comes from the fact that the Federal Government as patiently the children of Israel bore their burdens, the wrongs of disfranchisement, the lynchings and burnings of innocent and guilty, car humiliation of the "Jim Crow" car, 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 flag they have fought in every war, which struck their fathers from their home, 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 a national renown writes that a race of national renown writes that a never seen his people so discouraged and so embittered as to day? * * * * * * And his philosophy if he remains silent and segregates further, will be wrong, his democracy is beautiful and worthy has given us beautiful and worthy his book called "The New Freedom," and in his various speeches prior to and since his election to the Presidency. But nowhere thus far do we find any indication that his democracy against any one is to bring his whole carefully reared edifice crashing to the ground. The principles upon which our democracy rests must be institution, as exactly as a law of science, or they are open to doubt at once. Thus, we should not believe in the law of gravitation if it did not apply alike to every human being; we should not permit the use of wireless invention if he could transmit only the first half of the alphabet and not the last. It avails the apologists for the President not at all to say that "The New Freedom" applies to what, for the whole race problem but an economic and political one? It would certainly be ridiculous for Mr. Wilson, or his publishers, to expect any appreciative reading among the millions of disfranchised men and women or white men and women, of his theory of the coming of a new political freedom at the very moment when there is placed upon the colored by two of his own Cabinet an official stigma which no amount of official support would add to our minds. What Mr. McAdoe does not appreciate is that the slightest yield to prejudice on the part of a high Federal official will find a dozen imitators in the lower official ranks, and by adding their masters to curry favor with those in power. What he does not see is that if only one colored man or woman has been segregated it gives the deliberate lie to Mr. Wilson's promise to advance the interests of the race and violates his pledge of absolute fair dealing. The men who 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 tormented the side of every tormentor, of every 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 strife between the United States was, in its simplest terms, nothing else than an attempt of an aristocracy of cotton and land to create two classes of human beings that are free. They were willing to sacrifice the Union and everything else to this end. Those who in this day and generation are seeking to establish two classes of citizens, the distranchised and the disfranchised, shall be two kinds of Government employee—as does Mr. McAdoo's Cabinet associate—the they are on the high road to convulsing anew this land of citizens. And the quiet long as there are discriminations among its citizens. Upon their heads will be the responsibility of forcing the issue. To oppress any group of human beings, or to deny them their rights, there is a barrier. For each repression there is certain to come a terrible reckoning.

THE REPUBLIC'S SHAME. For the first time in the history of the United States, the machinery of the government of 90,000,000 people is being used to humiliate and degrade 10,000,000 of its loyal and law-abiding citizens. In some of the departments of the Federal Government at Washington Afro-American employees have been segregated from their former associates and fellow workers and ordered to use separate retiring rooms. In some instances cages have been built to separate Afro-American and white government clerks. No other class is obliged to bear this badge of degradation. There is no warrant in law for these orders of subordinate officials. The facts have been brought to the attention of the Department heads and thousands of petitions, memorials and letters have been sent to President Wilson, but up to this writing he has not seen fit to rescind this infamous un-American policy. The clerks who have been humiliated by the segregation orders are in no sense wards of the government. They have won their places by examinand women and the government which they have so faithfully and efficiently served has no right to place upon them this badge of dishonor. It is not a question of social equality that chimera which so many Caucasians claim to fear, but of civil equality which is the right of every citizen. Heretofer the attempts to degrade the citizenry have been the work of individual states in the Southern tier; the Federal Government must be held responsible for this new attempt to establish that impossible thing, caste in a Republic. Honest fair minded Americans feel that the fair fame of our country is being trailed in the dust; they hang is the Nation's shame. We hold President Wilson responsible because in the final analysis the acts of his subordinate officials are he and he has the power to end this injustice by a word. We have not lost faith in the President and we believe that he will carefully consider the many protests which have been made and give the word which a Christian Statesman should give, that during his administration there shall be no segregation or discrimination on account of race, creed or color among the servants of the government. WORK FOR VARDAMAN AND SMITH. Investigation of the history and habits of the parasites of the cotton boll weevil in a more comprehensive way than ever is proposed by Secretary Houston of the Department of Agriculture. He wants more funds appropriated with which to employ experts. Here is an excellent opportunity for Senators Vardaman and Hoax Smith and Representatives Heflin of Alabama and Clark of Florida to employ their talents. Instead of spending their time in vilifying Afro-American citizens over whose backs they have illegally climbed into power they might make speeches in Congress in favor of an appropriation to eliminate the boll weevil. This would really aid the South. The so-called governments in the Southern states can not last. They are founded on injustice, prejudice and hate. If the Afro-American is worthy of his civil rights he will contend for them and no power on earth can stay his progress.

Recently at the Church of England Congress at Southampton, Sir Sidney Olivier, who was governor of Jamaica from 1097 to the end of 1312, put forward the claim that no solution of the American color question was possible except by a resolute disclaimer of the color line and the race differention theory. Sir Sidney Olivier certainly knows what he is talking about. In the Island of Jamaica, where he was governor for five years, there are about 800,000 colored people and only 20,000 whites and yet there is absolutely no friction between the races. Jamaica is a British colony and the government is just. Colored men enjoy every civil and political right which white men have and there is no color line. Among other things Sir Sidney said: "My study and comparison of conditions in the United States and the West Indies," he said, "has brought me to that conclusion. American and colonial politicians and public men are not Exeter Hall abolitionists nor evangelical Christian missionaries. I do not expect them to adopt the methods of missionaries, nor do I sympathize with all their programmes. But it cannot be ignored that it happened that the faiths of the men who laid the foundations for the peaceful development of the mixed community in Jamaica were democratic and humanitarian and, above all, uncompromisingly Christian. "Were race differentiation held to it must increase civil discord. The balance of numbers is as it is in the South in America it must tend to foster obscure preparations for civil war and rebellion. If statesmen and citizens face in the contrary direction I do not say that they will attain immediately civil peace, but I am confident that they will be travelling the only road toward it. "I do not suggest that race does not greatly affect facilities for combination between humans in healthy national life, but race difference is only one of many schismatic agencies. The solution of the difficulty involves discipline for the white man as well as the black." HINDUS SHOULD BEWARE! Hindu students from practically every leading American university attended the meeting of the Hindustan Association of the United States at Chicago last week. They are trying to encourage the young men and women of India to attend American schools. It may be all right now but if the number becomes very great they would be treated in America just as Afro-Americans are treated—with contempt. Even now Hindus are practically barred from the Pacific Coast and in the South they find it necessary to wear turbans to prevent being mistaken for Afro-Americans and being subjected to the insult and degradation of the jim crow car and other devilish devices of that benighted section of the country. Dr. W. Ward Platt, of Philadelphia, is very anxious to convert the Aslatic people living on the Pacific coast to Christianity. Judging by newspaper reports, it would seem that the Caucasians themselves need to be converted to true Christianity. The Aslats are behaving themselves, making money, educating their children and conducting themselves with more propriety than the white heathen, who endeavor to oppress them.
