FRANCIS JOSEPH MAKES HARD FIGHT Aged Ruler ot Austria-Hungary In Precarious Condition. NATION PRAYS FOR RECOVERY He Refuses to Leave Vienna and Scorns Advice of Physicians to Go Temporarily to Another Climate. Thinks Departure Would Be Equal to Addication. Vienna.—Emperor Francis Joseph is making slow progress toward recovery. For the last several months he has not breathed fresh air, except a few mouth-fuils at a time, and these but rarely—he who has always been passionately fond of roughing it, of stalking the chamols up steep rocks or surprising the Austrian grouse and woodcock at early dawn in the deep forest glen. And he has shown rare patience through it all. Inured to exposure and hardship, and endowed by nature with a splendid physique, which his simple habits have never abused, the aged monarch, after catching cold in March, at first rather neglected the warnings of his faithful old physician, Dr. Kerzii If he lives he will be eighty-four in August, but he still has the strength and vitality of many a younger man. Last summer at Ischl, clad in a brouse, with bare knees, he several times was soaked to the skin while hunting, without suffering from it. It was very hard to make him understand that at his age a case of combined catarrh and bronchitis may easily terminate fatally unless every precaution is taken. The Austro-Hungarians are very food of their alter herr (old gentleman), as they affectionately speak of him, and the Viennese especially idolize him. That could be seen throughout this whole period of his illness. On days EMPEROR FRANCIS JOSEPH. when it was reported that he was in particular danger large crowds thronged the immense open square in front of the castle. Reverently, patiently, longingly, they stood for hours and in the patterning rain and keen blasts that sweep down from the nearby mountains, whispering to each other and exchanging words of hope or apprehension. When the weather improved for the moment their beloved ruler would now and then appear at a certain window. Then there would be cheering and throwing of hats in the air, and "God bless and keep you" would be murmured all around. After that thousands in the multitude would dispense and contentedly walk away, many of them to homes far away. Others, though, would wait till midnight—watching, inquiring, fearing. Since the emperor's illness began gay vienna has been in half mourning, and the whole monarchy is waiting with bated breath for news of him. In the brilliantly lighted coffee houses down town the conversation is of him. All public and representative bodies, from the two "delegations" now in session in Budapest down to the provincial administrative chambers, the municipal councils and commercial syndicates and boards of stockholders, have adopted resolutions of sympathy and wishes for the emperor's speedy recovery. Francis Joseph has never made friends with some of the modern inventions, such as the long distance telephone, and his fixed idea is that to leave Schoenbrunn and Vienna for an indefinite period, especially when both internal and foreign politics demand his full attention, would be tantamount to giving up the throne. So far as the emperor's general health is concerned, one of his chambers said that it is all that could be desired. He eats his simple meals with a relish and sleeps from 8 to 4, except for a brief spell of coughing now and then. He has given up, it is true, smoking his long, thin Virginia cigars, but indulges every day in a certain amount of walking when the weather permits in the little gallery, where a window facing the sun is then kept open for an hour or so. At other times he is in his study, where he strides up and down its bare floor. HE CALLS IT FISHING. Drains a Ditch and Catches Trout With His Hands. San Francisco.-W. H. Davenport, returning to his home here, tells this story: "I was back in Nevada recently, and a friend of mine who owns what he calls 'just a little ranch' of 400 acres asked me if I would like to fish for mountain trout. I said I would; it's my favorite sport. "Come on,' said he, and he took me to a stream across which he has built a dam for the purpose of irrigating his alfalfa. "Instead of producing fish poles he suddenly turned on the water and let it run full force through the irrigating ditches for just a half minute. Then he turned it off, and beckoning to me, led me to the irrigating ditch. "By this time the water which he had let in had run out into the fields, and on the bottom of the-ditch were about a hundred mountain trout left high and dry and flapping about at a great rate. "My friend gathered about twenty into a basket and threw the rest back alive into the stream. We had the ones he caught for supper, and they were delicious." NAME LAKES AFTER WOMEN. Mrs. Walsh Would So Honor Distinguished Ladies of Today. Mrs. Thomas J. Walsh, wife of Senator Walsh of Montana, is beading an active campaign to honor distinguished American women by giving their names to lakes and other beauty spots within Uncle Sam's great national parks. Women's clubs will be appealed to to further the movement. Mrs. Walsh found inspiration for the movement through the recent courtesy of Mr. Lane, the secretary of the interior, in naming one of the most beautiful lakes in the Glacier National park in Montana Lake Ellen Wilson after Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, wife of the president. In Glacier park alone there are several hundreds of these beautiful mountain locks lakes fea by glacier water. Only a few of them have names at present, and Mrs. Walsh wants to see them named for famous American women. She believes that the men of the nation will gladly acquiesce in the proposal. the "Bum." St. Louis.-Superintendent George M. Arendes, after four months' experience as keeper of the municipal lodging house, declares there is an aristocracy among the impecunious leisure class as well defined as that among the remainder of society in the United States. "A lodging house in St. Louis is a necessity and is helpful to the unfortunates who are temporarily unemployed and to the true hobo," said Arendes to a reporter, "but there is a vast difference between this class of men and those who are labeled 'tramps,' 'bums' and 'stiffs' by the boboes themselves. To these members of the lower castes we should not extend the same aid, if any, in my opinion, because they do nothing to deserve it and do not profit by it. "A real hobo," said Arendes, "is one who has no fixed place of residence and travels about more or less amlessly, by the roads as a rule, accepting employment whenever be needs money badly or an attractive job is located. "The members of the leisure class, ranking just below the hobo, are called "tramps" by the hoboes," continued Arendes. "Tramps are men who have not worked for years and have no present intention of ever engaging in profitable labor. They keep to the road, except in severe weather, when they are forced to the cities. They carry with them a complete equipment for their simple needs, such as a razor, soap, towels, changes in clothing and when on the road sometimes carry a blanket and cooking utensils. "A 'bum.' in hobo parlance, is a barrel housey, who sticks to the cities and begs on the streets for funds. They are a surly lot as a rule, and the real hobo will not associate with them except in cases of necessity. They pay no attention to personal cleanliness, as the tramp and hobo do. They are unwilling to work under any conditions and frequently develop into highwaymen, burglaries and pickpockets, but not of sufficient class to have standing with the professionals in this line. I have learned." LONG SEARCH FOR LOSER. Man Still Seeks Owner of Purse Found Fifteen Years Ago. Richmond, Ind.-James Garrett, seventy years old, a farmer of Newgarden township, was in Richmond recently to ask newspapers to assist him in finding the owner of a bunk bag and purse he found at the Richmond fair ground fifteen years ago. Garrett explained that he had advertised his find at the time and many times since without avail. The purse contained a small sum of money. "I'm getting pretty old now," said Garrett, "and I want to try once more to find the woman who lost the purse and money. I hope to restore it to her before I die." THE APPEAL MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1914. IDAHO'S MINE PROFITS BIG. L W W BOMB MAY TAKE JOY RIDE IN HEARSE. Sixteen Concerns In One County Net titled $4,776,775 In the Agency Wallace, Ida.-Net profits reports of sixteen producing mines in Shoshone county filed with the assessor for assessment purposes for the present year based on the operations of the year 1913 show a total net profit of mines of $4,776.75 as against net profits of $3,589.501 for the preceding year, or an increase of $1,187.274 in the face of an adverse lead market which, during the year, has gradually fallen approximately $1.40 per hundred pounds. The gross output of the sixteen big producers for 1913 amounted to 2,039,030 tons, an increase of 150,786 tons over the preceding year, while the gross value amounted to $17,670,083. an increase of $2,191,020. The cost of extraction amounted to $6,586,784 as against $5,926,374 for the year 1912 transportation and smelter-charges amounted to $5,767,412 as against $5,059,612 for the preceding year, and improvements and betterments decreased from $08,785 to $635,376. The most remarkable showing made by any single producer is that of a mine which this year jumps into first place, ellipsing the Bunker Hill by $144,814 in net profits. Still another remarkable showing is that of a mine which this year displaces the Stewart for third place in the producing list with net profits of $838,140; the Stewart ranks fourth with $561,432 as against $395,344 last year. The Morning Mine at Mullan holds its position at fifth place, with a decrease of $19,632 in its net profits, while the Hecla drops from fourth last year to sixth this year. GOOD TO JACK'S GIRL Daniels Allows Sailors on Shore Leave to Stay Away Later. Washington—Secretary Daniels demonstrated again his friendship for Cupid by letting it be known that he purposes to extend the shore leave of sailors when their ships are in port. Incidentally Secretary Daniels expects thereby to decrease the number of technical desertions. Under present regulations, when a sailor gets shore leave, he must return to his ship by 11 o'clock, when the last boat to the ship leaves shore. There have been many desertions because of failures to catch the last boat, and Secretary Daniels has issued an order providing that there shall be a 12 o'clock and a 1 o'clock boat between shore and ship. "It is quite unfair," said Secretary Daniels, "to expect that a sailor can take his girl to a theater, have a little supper afterward and get back in time for the last boat at 11 o'clock. I have ordered that the last boat between shore and ship leave at 1 o'clock. I understand that navy desertions have been due to sailors missing the 11 o'clock boat, because they have feared the results." MONUMENTS MARK U. S. BOUNDARY Surveyors Fix Line Between Alaska and Canada. Sitka, Alaska.—Scarring a broad line across 600 miles of wilderness in the far north in order that the possessions of the United States and Canada may have a distinct separation at every point will be completed during the coming open season. The work has been in progress since 1907 under the direction of Thomas Riggs, Jr., civil engineer, representing the United States Alaskan boundary commission, and T. D. Craig, representing a similar commission of Canada. Although the United States and Canada have been neighbors in the far north for almost half a century, the exact dividing line between their possessions, especially as to the northern portion, was, previous to this survey, indefinite and conflicting. Many disputes arising, the two governments decided finally, through their commissions, that an absolute survey, clearly established and marked for all time, should be made along the one hundred and forty-first meridian, from the Mount St. Elias Alps, on the Pacific, to the Arctic ocean, a distance of approximately 600 miles. The United States surveying party consisted of from sixty to eighty men each season since the work was undertaken. Chief Engineer Riggs, himself a young college man, selected his aids from the hardest classes—cowboys, forest rangers, prospectors, timber cruisers and frontiersmen, with a liberal sprinkling of engineers. New expeditions were organized each spring, although many of the men who started at the beginning have remained in the service up to now. It was the custom, too, to leave a few men in the north each winter to care for equipment and supplies. The actual visible result of the six or seven years of efforts is a twenty foot vista, cut, like a gigantic avenue or lane, through all timber and brush districts, together with monuments set at intervisible points from three to four miles apart. Holds to Ledge Twenty Minutes. South Bend. Ind.—After hanging from the ledge of a cistern twenty minutes, with the water to his neck. Christian Lipp, aged seventy, was rescued by relatives. He is not expected to survive. Police Think That Most Dangerous Agitators Were Killed. INTENDED FOR ROCKEFELLER Detectives Sure That Dynamite Would Have Been "Planted" by Reckless Anarchists—Story of Propaganda Reads Like a Dime Novel—Many Girls Aid "the Cause." New York.—Officials here believe that the premature explosion of a bomb in the hands of members of the Industrial Workers of the World killed four of the most dangerous agitators. Little trouble is now looked for. The tragedy is expected to end the outbursts, although members do not hesitate to assert that one or two deaths cannot put an end to "the cause." The explosion foiled a plot, the police say, which may have caused great loss of life and damage to property. Efforts to prove that the bomb was being manufactured for use in blowing up some of the Rockefeller property have been fruitless, but detectives say there is little doubt that it was to be put to this use. Surviving agitators, however, assert that the bomb was sent to them by outside parties and are seeking to find the perpetrators of what they call a crime. Damage might possibly have occurred had the bomb been "plante." is attested by the fact that the building in which the police say it was "being manufactured was totally demolished. Three floors were blown apart. ```markdown ``` and only the outside walls left standing. The death toll would have been enormous had it exploded in a crowd. The story of the I. W. W. propaganda reads like a dime novel. These men and women, mostly followers of Alexander Berkman, one of the most noted anarchists in the country, one who has served a prison term for an attempt on the life of Henry C. Frick and with a wilful a brilliant writer and scholar, say they will not rest until they receive just recognition. First they began by invading churches of New York city, demanding something to eat and a place to sleep. These raids were stopped when about 100 men and boys were arrested, their leader given a long prison term and others serving from one to two months in jail. Following this, members of the I. W. W. began what they called a protest against the murder of miners in the recent coal mine war in Colorado, in which many lives were lost. Led by Sinclair, I. W. W. supporters marched up and down in front of the office of John D. Rockefeller Jr., wearing crape bands on their arms. This continued for some time, and Mr. Rockefeller went to his home at Taryn林, N. Y. He was followed by the agitators, and a lot occurred there when the town authorities refused to allow the visitors to make inflammatory threats against life and property. About a dozen of the ringleaders were arrested in Tarrytown. Among these was Alexander Berkman, founder of a school of anarchy and admitted leader of the outbreaks. It is said that Berkman furnishes the brains for the agitators. His school is run regularly, and the attendance is said to be large. Students are taught to protest against present industrial conditions. One of the peculiar features is the number of girls and young women who become interested in the movement. These are considered by the police the most dangerous of the agitators. TAKE JOY RIDE IN HEARSE. Women and Children Enjoy It as Spectators Stand Aghast. Spokane, Wash.-Fifteen miles across country in a hearse was the unique trip taken by a party of Spokane women and children after their automobile had broken down near Cheney, Wash. While the stranded wayfarers looked sadly at their balky machine, S. M. Smith, a Spokane undertaker, came along with his automobile hearse. Mrs. William Pitman and daughter and Mrs. Frank Chapman and daughter gayly climbed into the hearse, leaving Mr. Pitman and Mr. Chapman to tinker with the machine. Raising the curtains within the hearse, the wayfarers enjoyed the trip to Spokane. The big black vehicle rolled through country and villages while spectators looked agast at the smiling faces of women and children that peeped out at them. When the hearse reached the suburbs of Spokane bystanders looked horror stricken to see a party of four live persons emerge and get aboard a street car. SAW GARRISON, ALL OF HIM Man Looking For War Secretary Found Him Just Out of Bath. Washington—Secretary of War Garrison tells the following story on himself apropos of the approaching heated term: "Last summer I went on a tour of inspection of the western forts. On one of the hottest days of the year I finished looking over Fort Leavenworth, Kan., and then motored to Kansas City. I went straight to my hotel, filled the bathtub with water and luxuried. After the bath and before drying I started a parade up and down the room, enjoying the river breezes that strained through the windows. All at once the door was burst open and a wild eyed young man said in surprised tones: "I want to see the secretary of war." "Well, take a good look." I said. 'You'll never see any more of him than you do right now.' Washington—Lower California, Mexico's isolated peninsula, the coast of which the Pacific fleet of the United States is now patrolling, is one of the least known territories in North America. The following facts concerning this arm or land, which projects about 800 miles southeasterly from the southern border of California, were given out by the National Geographic society at Washington: The width of the peninsula varies from about thirty to more than a hundred miles, and its irregular coast line, over 2,000 miles long, is bordered by numerous islands. Being mainly a mountainous, desert region, it is thinly peopled and presents many sharply contrasting conditions. Low sun scorched plains, where death by thirst awaits the traveler, lie close to the bases of towering granite peaks, belted by forests and capped in winter by snow. Desolate plateaus of black lava look down on valleys seamed with green bordered streams. At the time of its discovery in 1533 by an expedition sent out by Cortes in search of a fabulously rich island, it is estimated to have been inhabited by 25,000 Indians, who vigorously resented the intrusion and prevented the newcomers from getting a foothold for more than a century. The Jesuits then came in and were wonderfully successful in exploring the peninsula and establishing missions. They established three main trails, one along each coast and the third down the middle, which serve as the regular routes of travel today. The Indians have vanished from all parts of their former territory, except a few in the extreme northern end. During the last half century all parts of the territory have been visited mainly by Americans, in search of mines and other natural resources, but little of the knowledge gained has become available to the public. Gold, silver, copper, iron and other minerals and much fertile land have been found, but the scarcity of water, fuel and forage and the difficulties of transportation have united with other causes to bring about failure to develop the resources. The climate of Lower California in general is hot and arid. Northern conditions are closely like those in adjoining parts of southern California; in the middle they are more arid, but the extreme southern end, though arid tropical, has more regular summer rains. The peninsula suffers long periods of drought, during which no rainfall sufficient to start vegetation occurs over large areas for periods of from three to five years. These dry periods may be succeeded by torrential rains, which sweep the country and roll great floods down to the sea. The peninsula is thinly peopled, and enormous areas remain uninhabited. The most populous section is the region south of La Paz, where rains are more regular than further north. A few small towns and widely scattered communities along the coast, with a limited number of villages, ranches and miners' camps in the interior, cover the population.

New Discovery May Cure Hog Cholera and Save $100,000,000. Washington—The high cost of meats has received a body blow in a report received from Minnesota by the United States agricultural department here. One of the greatest contributing causes to the high cost of all meats is admitted to be the great ravages of hog cholera, which has swept the country during the past few years until last season over $100,000,000 in pork was lost, of which $33,000,000 was in Iowa alone. With such a great scarcity of pork there was no balance wheel to depress values of beef, and hence the mounting prices of steaks. Hog cholera has come to be so dreaded that farmers are beginning to refuse to raise any hogs, and even those who stick to the game raise only a few, not caring to take the long chances. It is admitted that with hog cholera eliminated from the farmers' calculation millions more would be raised, as they are easy to handle and the returns are quick. But, strange to say, science has never found a cure for this dreaded disease. The report just received by the department of agriculture contains a chart showing the treatment of upward of a thousand hogs sick with chronic cholera with a special veterinary treatment. Cures were effected in 75.15 per cent, of the cases. The tests have been going on in the field in various parts of Minnesota since last September. State veterinarians sent out by the Minnesota live stock and sanitary board to administer serum treatment were instructed to have the new medicine administered. EDISON IS CHALLENGED Head of Tobacco Firm Asserts That Cigarettes Are Pure. New York.—Thomas A. Edison has been challenged to prove his contention that the cigarette is harmful and that its users are feeble minded. Furthermore, Percival S. Hill, president of a big tobacco company, in an open letter to the inventor, expresses the belief that investigation and reconsideration would cause him to admit his error. Mr. Hill recalls the time when it was quite the fashion for cigarettes to be attacked by "well intentioned ignorant people, by notoriously seekers and by thrifty legistors." The result was that medical men and other scientists undertook thorough examinations of the cigarette. "Every one of these investigations," writes Mr. Hill, "resulted in exactly the same set of findings—viz, that the cigarette is absolutely pure; that it contains less nicotine than any other form of tobacco products; that the combustion of the paper is harmless in its effect on the human physiology; that its temperate use is in no way injurious to normal users." Tacoma, Wash.—There is one railroad in the United States that has paid from the day it began to turn wheels. Not a single dollar in bonds was issued to start it. All the stock was paid for and every cent expended on honor. There is not and never has been one dollar of indebtedness against the property. Every bill is paid on presentation, and all current accounts and wages are met at the first of each month. In almost four years of operation the books show annual dividends of 4 per cent and a comfortable reserve fund. In that time the road has nothing in the accident classification on its records, not a broken car, a mangled pig nor injured passenger. Not a single lawsuit has ever been filed against the road; it has never had to answer a legal complaint. And this paragon of transportation systems is purely an inland empire development. It is the Waterville railway, running from Waterville to Douglas Junction. The distance traversed and the traffic carried demand five and one-tenth miles of main line and two miles of sidetrack. For the three years ended Dec. 31, 1913, passenger earnings of the Waterville road were $14,465; freight received. $14,270.79; freight forwarded. $12,147.92; miscellaneous, mall, etc., $11,020.50; total $151,913.21. The highest priced ticket on the system is 36 cents, and this covers the whole line, and more than 50,000 passengers had to be carried with a single engine and one coach to make the earnings shown. Ten cents is the first class freight rate of the line, and much freight is hauled at as low as 1½ cents per 100 pounds. More than 45,000,000 pounds had to be brought into Waterville to earn $14,279.79. The road was built and is operated by the people it serves. Had "Wad;" Slept In Furnace. St. Louis.—Because his clothes were mussed and his face dirty Edward Pelzer was arrested here as a "supricious character." At the station the police were amazed to find all his pockets stuffed with greenbacks and goldbacks, totaling $2,940. $2.40 PER YEAR. PHILIPPINES TO BE FREE SOON Bill Provides For Independence When Isles Are Stable. TO ABOLISH COMMISSION. Administration Measure Laid Before Congress—Senate Provided For Christian Provinces to Possess Suffrage—Non-Christian Tribes to Vote Through Appointees of Governor. Washington.—A plan, approved by the administration, for a more autonomous government in the Philippines as another step toward independence was laid before congress when Representative Jones of Virginia introduced a bill covering the subject. Mr. Jones is chairman of the house insular committee, and his measure, declaring the purpose of the people of the United States as to the future political status of the Filipinos, follows a long series of conferences with President Wilson, Secretary Garrison, Manuel Quezon, the Philippine resident commissioner to the United States, and Democratic members of the insular committee. Supporters of the measure do not expect it to get favorable action by congress at this session, but are hopeful of action at the December session. The bill is designed to carry out the Government of the Baltimore platform. The bill makes no attempt to fix a date for Philippine independence, but asserts that it always has been the purpose to recognize the independence of the Philippine Islands "as soon as a stable government could be established therein." Mr. Jones, explaining his Philippine bill, said: "Generally speaking, the bill provides for the Philippine Islands the most liberal form of a territorial government. Its principal features, affect- Photo by American Press Association. REPRESENTATIVE JOES OF VIRGINIA ing the more important changes in the existing organic act, are those relating to the enlarged powers conferred upon the governor general and the abolition of the present Philippine commission as such and the substitution thereof of a senate the members of which representing Christian provinces shall be elected by popular vote. "The non-Christian tribes are to be represented in the legislature by two senators and nine representatives appointed by the governor general. The only officials to be appointed by the president are the governor general and the members of the supreme court. The governor general is given a limited power of veto over the acts of the legislature, but the president would have the power of absolute veto. "The right to vote is confined to citizens of the islands, and the educational qualification of the present law is so enlarged as to embrace those who can read and write a native language instead of English or Spanish, as at present. "Two resident commissioners to the United States are to be elected by popular vote." Speaking for the Filipinos, Resident Commissioner Quezon, an active advocate of Philippine independence for years, gave the bill his approval. "It represents," he said. "far less than ought to have been considered, but I strongly favor its enactment because it is a step in the right direction." THIS IS THE CHAMPION MISER Iowa Man Was "Panhandling" and Had $1,507 All the Time. Clinton, Ia. "Bumming" a nickel from a stranger with which to purchase tobacco. J. J. McGuire qualified as the champion miser of this vicinity, for when he was later taken to the county jail and searched it was found that he had cash and bank certificates of deposit amounting to a total of $1,507.30 on his person. McGuire was arrested on a charge of intoxication and peddling without a license. He had twenty-two cheap razors, which he had been peddling in the railroad yards. HAVE YOU READ THE APPEAL?

The "Christian" emperors have ordered the fool poor people to go out and kill one another and after attending church where their swords are blessed by the priests and they pray to God for success, the massacre starts. THE APPEAL wishes to call the attention of the murder-mad monarch to the possibility of forming an army corps in this country, which for efficiency in its chosen line would make the most ferocious, blood-thirsty and inhuman generals look like a lot of pikers. Why not organize a "Lynchers' Corps?" Let it be under the supreme command of Governor Cole L. Blease, of South Carolina, Senator Ben Tillman, also of South Carolina, the man who boasted in the United States Senate that Afro-Americans were killed because they tried to exercise their rights as free men, would be an ideal man for chief of staff. Ben is a great "Christian" and it is said that he knows more about the Bible than any other Senator. Senator Vardaman, that great "Christian" who has devoted his life to the undoing of colored brethren; Senator Williams also of Mississippi, whose recent speech in Congress was more bitter than his colleague's against one-half of the residents of his state, and Senator Hoak Smith, whose newspaper contributed much to cause the Atlanta riot, are just the men for Brigadier-Generals. Frank Clark of Florida, Charles Gordon Edwards of Georgia, both authors of segregation bills, Congressman Hardwick of Georgia, whose specialty is repeal of fifteenth amendment legislation; James T. Heflin of Alabama, author of the jincrow street car bill; Martin Dies of Texas, noted segregationist; are all "Christians," have a bitter hatred against their co-religionists of other colors and are eminently qualified for places as generals. THE APPEAL suggests that Frank Park, of Sylvester, Georgia, another 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. Had no voice been m ignorance and lust; th serve the law, and gui disputes. The few who dare, again to right the wrong The few who dare, must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many. "Christian" who introduced a bill in Congress, making it unlawful for "negroes to be designated or elected as commissioned or non-commissioned officers in the United States Army," be commissioned high private general rear rank. The rest of the officers could be selected from the locally prominent segregationists and Samuel L. West, a "Christian" and author of the Baltimore segregation ordinance is certainly entitled to a captaincy. By all means, Dr. Lyman Abbott, who stands preeminent among American Christians who have handed out Bible bunk in defense of subtitle attacks on the rights of Americans of darker hue, should be named as chapain-in-chief. Rev. Frost, who was the direct cause of the infamous Kentucky law which undid the real Christian work of that saint John G. Fee and dismembered Berea College, segregating the Afro-American students; Rev Johnston Myers, the famous Baptist Bible beater who stated publicly that he "would receive a colored Christian into fellowship of his (not Christ's) church;" "Pastor" Russell, who has made a million dollars out of the rot he sends out weekly about Christianity and the brotherhood of man, but ordered colored Christians to the gallery at the production of the "Creation" in New York; and the Catholic priest in Baltimore who ordered a kneeling Christian woman, said to have been the sister of an Afro-American Catholic priest, out of his church, could be utilized as assistant chaplains. The Washington clergyymen, who refused to fraternize with an Afro-American minister even while on a visit to the Holy Land, where their Christ was born, ought to be the nucleus of a reservcors of Bible buncolists. All of these people have many times invoked the divine blessing on their ungody racial prejudices. The ranks of the privates could be recruited from the Southern governors, members of Southern legislatures which have passed discriminating laws, and the men who have participated in "lynching bees" in the South. Then all of the contemptible cowardly curs of the colored race, those who believe that they are inferior to other races, those who favor segregation because it pays financially or because Southern Caucasians pat them on their backs and call them "good niggers", ought to be gathered together and designated as body servants for the officers of the corps—they'd be delighted to serve. Then the whole aggregation could be shipped away on an unprotected cruiser and if their transport happened to strike a floating mine and they were hurled to——kingdom come, "they never would be missed." The music for the march to battle could be furnished by the Christian people who had charge of the Christian Sunday School convention in Washington, D. C., a year or two ago. Christ said: "Suffer little children to come unto me," but the Washington Christians evidently believing themselves to be superior to their leader, refusing little colored children places in their parade, marched proudly along, singing, "Onward Christian Soldier!" GEORGIA'S LATEST. The more or less great commonwealth of Georgia, land of the cracker, and the watermelon, in whose capital the most infamous and uncalled for massacre of dark-hued Americans occurred, has again distinguished itself by picking Tom Hardwick, now unlawfully occupying a seat in the House of Representatives, as its candidate for United States Senator and he will duly be sent to Washington to be the colleague of Hoax Smith, whose newspaper was the principal inciter of the Atlanta riot, and introduce some more jimcrow bills. The associated press dispatch, announcing the selection of Hardwick, naively added, "a nomination is equivalent to an election." Of course, it is. RACE PR I am convinced myself evil thing in this present justice; none at all. I the worst single thing and holds together more abomination than any other world. Through its book of coarse lust, suspicion and all the darkest soul. RACE PREJUDICE I am convinced myself that there is no more evil thing in this present world than Race Prejudice; none at all. I write deliberately—it is the worst single thing in life now. 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 soul. —H. G. Wells in N. Y. Independent. Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Half the population of Georgia consists of Afro-Americans and they are distranchised by the state's infamous laws. During his six terms in Congress Hardwick has done very little. Practically his whole time has been spent in introducing jimrow legislation, his most notable achievements in this line being two joint resolutions, one, H. J. Res. 60, 62d Congress, proposing an amendment to repeal the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution, and one, H. J. Res. 61, 62d Congress, proposing the repeal of the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution. Hardwick is a great "introducer" and when he reaches Washington he may make a hit with his cracker constituents in "Jawjaw" by introducing a Bill to compel all colored residents of the District of Columbia to use the middle of the streets, reserving the sidewalks for Jawjawians and other superior people. "MADE IN U. S. A." Senator Fletcher of Florida, chairman of the senate committee on commerce, favorably reported the following resolution, which had been submitted by Senator Weeks of Massachusetts: "The secretary of commerce is hereby directed to cause to be prepared in detail an estimate of the probable cost of sending at least six vessels, now in the military or naval service of the United States, or otherwise, to the principal port of South America, such vessels to carry suitable samples of the manufacturers and products of this country, together with a reasonable number of representatives of business or trade organizations, and to adopt such other means as may by him be deemed advisable, to the end that our manufacturers and producers may be forthwith put in direct contact with the markets of South America." The majority of the people in Mexico, Central and South America are mixed bloods, Caucasians, Indian and Negroes and all sorts of complicated mixtures and it would undoubtedly be a great idea to load the ship with samples of jimcar cars and various other hellish things which are made only in the United States. The 19,000,000 colored people out of the 20,000,000 inhabitants of Brazil would no doubt be greatly interested in the U.S. S. Treasury brand of water closets "For Negroes only" put on the market by that distinguished inventor, John Sketton Williams of Virginia. "MY BELOVED JEWS." Old Nick Romanoff, who happened to be born heir to the Russian throne and succeeded to it when his brother was blown to smithereens by an Nihilist's bomb and who styles himself "Czar of all the Russians and vice regent of God on earth, etc., etc, comes out in a proclamation to his 'beloved Jews' and says that if they will be real good, give up their money, shoulder arms and fight for "Holy Russia," he will in turn give them their civil rights. The holy old Nick is just a plain liar and and he has no intention of carrying out any such program. Not a single Jew in America takes any stock in his promises and Jewish editors and prominent citizens all over the country who have commented on the matter, unite in doubting His Imperial Nickness. The Romanoffs have made many false promises to the Hebrews who have been persecuted under nearly every Russian ruler. Some of the most horrible programs or massacres of innocent Jews, have occurred during the reign of the present emperor. No one who has read of the atrocities committed against helpless Jews in recent years at Bialystok, Kiev Kishinev and other places, massacres which had the sanction of the Russian government, would for a moment have any faith in any promises made by Old Nick. GO! Fathers! Mothers! Listen! Do You Remember How Pleased You Were When Father and Mother took You to the Fair? You will never forget that delightful trip, will You? For weeks before you dreamed and talked about it. Thousands of air castles were built only to be replaced by a thousand others. The ideas impressed upon your mind then will last through life. Children are no different today. They crave entertainment and the sight of things unusual. The Minnesota State Fair is the place for children this year. A great educational show has been substituted for the one on the Pike of former years. All entertainment is to be clean, forceful, inspiring. On Wonderway, at the lip of the Lagoon, there will be a gigantic model of the Panama Canal, designed by the architect who drew the original plans for the United States War Department. A menagerie of wild beasts, taken from one of the largest zoological parks in America, is to be shown also. Other shows of a like nature will be provided. Just back of the grandstand is a roller coaster, nearly half a mile long, where old folks and young folks will have the time of their lives taking the dips and turns. There will be a troupe of racing dogs, horses taking part in a hurdle race around the race track, a balloon man who makes eight parachute drops from a balloon at one time, a big herd of educated elephants, and May Wirth, the greatest lady bareback rider in the world. To cap the feature program the best auto racing program ever held at the Minnesota State Fair will be given Saturday, Sept. 12. Barney Oldfield, Louis Bisrow, Ed Rickenbacher, Eddie Hearne, Johnny Raimey, Bill Knipper, Fred Horey, and Joe Cleary, are some of the great speed kings who will fight for supremacy on that day. On the opening day all children accompanied by adults will be admitted free. Don't forget your boys and girls. LET'S GO! MINNESOTA STATE FAIR AND EXPOSITION Hamline, Sept. 7-12. Five new spacious art galleries for the accommodation of a quarter of a million dollars' worth of art subjects from all parts of America have been built at the Minnesota State Fair. Experts declare the exhibit, Sept. 7-12, will be superior to any fine art exhibition held west of New York, with the possible exception of St. Louis and Chicago. The Minnesota State Art Society is co-operating with the Fair in putting on the exhibit. Maurice I. Flagg, director of the State Art Society, declares the annual state art exhibition will be held at the Fair hereafter. The exhibit will include paintings and examples of industrial art, sculpture, handicraft, and other phases of art. There will be nearly 10,000 feet of available wall space. An International Jury will award the prizes, which include $650 in cash and two gold medals. Lectures and demonstrations will be given each day of the Fair to explain to the thousands thronging the galleries the principles underlying the exhibit. In addition there will be shown twenty-seven farm home plans, thirty-five model farmyard landscape designs, and fifty excellent designs for model village houses. CHAMPION HORSES ENTERED Minnesota State Fair Horse Show Draws From Best Stables. The Evening Horse Show at the Minnesota State Fair, Sept. 7-12, will be attended this year by more horses of national reputation than at any time previously. This is to result from a general increase in premium money in nearly every class. The Show will be managed in the same way as the noted Horse Shows at Madison Square Garden, New York; Chicago and Kansas City. The Coliseum will be decorated elaborately, and every convenience and comfort possible will be arranged. It is expected that a large audience will be present each evening. Several high priced vaudeville acts will be placed on every program, and two noted bands will play. Many noted horsemen from the East and South have signified their intention of entering their champion horses. There appears to be unusual interest among driving and riding horse owners in the Northwest. Lynching of Afro-American Woman Society Function in South Carolina. Orangeburg, S. C.—Rose Carson, a colored woman, was taken from the jail at Earlene near here and lynched by a mob. Eve witnesses state that many of the most prominent citizens took part in the festivities. The woman, who was charged with the murder of a 12 year old child, was taken to the scene of her alleged crime and hanged. Afterward the body was riddled with bullets. IN CHRISTIAN SOUTH. Animals Worth Million Coming to Minnesota State Fair. There is every indication that the livestock show at the Minnesota State Fair, Sept. 7-12, will be the largest one ever held in the Northwest, even exceeding in size and aggregate value the one of last year. Over one million dollars' worth of pure-bred stock from all parts of the world will be assembled. Beginning on Monday, the opening day, a score of judges of international reputation will begin judging in the Livestock Pavilion, the Swine Barn, and the Sheep Barn. In the evening of each day a gigantic livestock parade of horses and cattle from the leading studs and herds at the Fair will be held at the evening Horse Show in the Hippodrome. As a result of an increase of $3,000 in the awards for horses, the very cream of the stables of America will be exhibited in both light and draft classes. There will be a large number of both native and imported horses shown. Among them will be some of the blue ribbon winners at the leading shows here and abroad last year. A special effort will be made to encourage local breeders to show. Last year the Dairy Cattle Show was one of the largest held in the New World. There is such interest in dairy stock in the Northwest that an unusually large exhibit will be made this year. Local breeders will carry away much of the prize money. The Beef Cattle Show will include many animals certain to win highest honors at the Chicago International Livestock Exposition. There will be a Fat Stock Show as usual. Due largely to the arrangement for a $600 Poland-China Futurity Show for Minnesota classes, the Swine Show will be the best ever held in the Northwest, unless something unforeseen happens. The Minnesota State Fair is to guarantee $150, while the American Poland-China Breeders' Association is to give the balance. The Sheep Show has always been a large one. Minnesota farmers are paying more attention to sheep than ever before, and in charge believe that this interest will result in an unusually large Show. The leading importers will exhibit the pick of their focks. Generous premiums are offered to Minnesota classes. Possibly the worst thing permitted to go on and work injury to Negroes, has been the silence of Negro speakers in the face of the infamous lies Ben. Tillman, Vardaman, Blease and others have been telling the North and West about Negroes raping white women. By all means they should have reubaked and their state statements but, alas, it is no sections believe it.

C. LEAGUE AGAIN OUT WITH WILD CLAIM. Anti-Saloon Organization's County Op- tion. Boast, Annapura, On Time. tion Boast Appears On Time. St. Paul, Minn., August-State officials who are all interested in the question express little faith in the claim of the Anti-Saloon league that Minnesota's next legislature will be for County Option. One official expressed his view by saying that for ten years, proceeding every election, the league has made similar claims and that the results have never approached the boasts. Attorney F. W. Zollman, who has followed conditions closely for several years, says that the league's claim this year differs from its predecessor only in the fact that it is more cunningly devised and that, like those of the past, it is a covert appeal to the men in charge of children to turn their dollars, half-dollars, dimes into the capacious maw of the league, and to attempt to start a band wagon movement. Mr. Zollman said: "I have sufficient knowledge of conditions to know that the fair-minded people of the state will hold both the Senate and House in line against the un-American doctrine of one-sided County Option—a subterfuge whereby license communities can be made prohibitive through the interference of outside property communities, while prohibition communities can maintain prohibition without the interference of any other community." Surrendered Rights Never Regained (Martinsburg Pioneer Press.) Editorial Dabney, of the Cincinnati, Ohio Union, like Hon. H. C. Smith of the old reliable Gazette of Cleveland, is up in arms against spruiting caste in his city. Right you are, that right surrendered are seldom regained. Your contention that a few teachers' salaries amount to nothing compared to the cowardlessness of the men and women mixed schools give us is true. Early life was spent in the schools of Chicago, never sitting by the side of children leaving that city and going south to about ten years later we returned to Chicago and going to the Appellate Court, found our class and seat mate, Mr. Frank Lane, head clerk over more than a hundred clerks. We embraced each other and before all of the clerks he wept with joy and said to his first assistant: "Take my place, for John and I are going to paint the old town red today." He got his buggy and took us over all of our prank ground- and what a time we had that day. of the old teachers threw her arms around the room, then boys were then men in various kinds of business and all greeted us, Mrs. Curtin, one of the noblest and sweetest Chicago ever owned, and for whom the whole city mourned by order of authority, wept, and greeted us as a mother would her long gone and returned son. Mix the longs, for there is no color in heaven. The Reason Why. (Afro-American Ledger.) One of the reasons why the South is in its present backward condition is because the white people of the South pay more attention to trying to keep the Afro-American in "his place," whatever that may be, instead of trying to make progress and have the colored man to assist him in doing so. We are creditably informed that Wilmington, N. C., has been falling back in the race ever since that riot took place which drove from it a large element of its very best and most progressive colored people. It has lost its standing as the first city of the old Tar Heel State, and is compelled to take second or even third place. PROHIBITION PLANK FAILS Missouri Progressives Refuse to Endorse Movement at State Convention. Kansas City, Mo., Aug. 5.—The Progressive party has refused to pledge itself to national prohibition. At the state convention held in this city this week, a movement to include in the platform a plank endorsing national prohibition failed by a decisive vote. The convention included in the platform a declaration for workmen's compensation measures, and indorsement of the home rule theory, but not of a home rule bill that involved breaking the present state laws with regard to liquors. A wise man knows all he tells, but he never tells all he knows. IN HOLY RUSSIA. Jewish Girl Outraged and Crucified By Russians. Berlin—One of the most revolting crimes in the dark history of Russia was reported here in a special dispatch from St. Petersburg, telling of three Russian youths having outraged and then crucified the daughter of a poor Jewish fisherman in Stavrapol, on the Volga. After outraging the young girl, the dispatch declares, the three youths dragged her to a cemetery, where they nailed her to a cross above one of the graves. Nails were driven through her hands and feet and even through her eyes. The three murderers were arrested, but their friends in the town released them and they escaped, it is asserted. Of William E. Lee on the Liquor Traffic. "I believe in county option and that the people of any governmental unit should have the legal machinery provided for the expression of thir will upon thi liquor question. In addition to providing a correct option law, I believe in further reducing the power of the brewery in politics, and curbing the sinister influence of the liquor traffic by preventing brewery ownership of saloons or buildings occupied by saloons, by enforcement of laws prohibiting the sale of beer or liquor to any but legally licensed retailers, thus doing away with blind pigs and other illicit places whose existence depends upon the illegal sale of liquor, and by such other legislation as may be necessary to destroy the power of the liquor traffic." GROWTH OF DRUG HABBIT Prohibitionists Pay Little Attention to Country's Serious Menace serious menace. Duluth, Minn., Aug.-Commenting on the accumulation of evidence that the drug habit is growing at an spalling rate in this country, the Duluth Herald of August 12th says editorially: "It is claimed that this country uses more opium than China, and that it has become the chief market of the world for this deadly drug. "Drugs kill more people than whiskey, and kill them in a more dreadful way. They kill the soul long before they kill the body. They kill the consciousness into fiends. They corrode moral faculties, and kill lingeringly, terribly. "Half the enthusiasm and zeal put into the prohibition movement would slay the drug evil. "Yet there is much enthusiasm and zeal for the prohibition movement and very little interest in the drug menace. CAPITOL STEAM LAUNDRY. "The House of Quality and Service."

Afro-American Woman Lynched by Americans. Muskogee, Okla.—Lemuel Peace, a Caucasian, went into the colored section of the city Sunday night and mistreated Marie Scott, an Afro-American woman. To defend herself, she killed him. She was arrested and put into the Wagoner county jail for safe keeping. Tuesday she was taken out of the jail by a masked mob and hanged to a telephone pole. The mob got into the jail by strategy. The mob pulled the screaming woman from her cell, tied a rope about her neck and dragged her some distance through the streets before reaching the telephone pole.

L. Theobald, who highly enlogised the deceased for her Christian character and labors. There was a very large concourse of sorrowing friends present, it being, according to a statement made by Father S. L. Theobald, since he had been the priest in charge. The deceased was an enthusiastic admirer of the Order of Elks, her husband being a member of Ames Lodge, No. 106, of Minneapolis, and in consideration of her admiration of the Order an old friend of the family, Mr. E. J. Stewart, was requested to select members of the Lodge to act as pall bearers which he did as follows: W. R. Morris, H. P. Southall, Charles Brody, W. E. West. The pall bearers were all attired in full Prince Albert suits, which is the regulation funeral dress of the Order. The funeral tributes were very numerous and beautiful, there being a number of special designs. The deceased left no blood relatives, only her husband and numerous friends to mourn her departure. Lyles, funeral director, interment at Calvary cemetery. The bereaved husband desires to tender his heart-felt thanks to the many friends who gave aid and sympathy during the illness and at the death of his beloved wife, and especially does he thank the donors of the floral tributes.

Club Does The Exceptional Thing. The H. Y. W. K. Club, of St. James A. M. E. Church, staged a boat excursion for last Tuesday. It was to have been an all-day affair or religious meeting, culminating with a baptising. The day came in with a heavy rain and a drizzle kept up almost all day. There were thirty-seven faithful, however, who went and returned to tell the blessing. That blessing will be recounted for years by those who received it. The fish-fry over with, the afternoon was spent casting in an improvised fish pond and singing camp meeting songs. At five o'clock, although it was still raining, it was decided to make a landing and baptise Mitchell Woodford, the only candidate aboard. The landing was made, and still it rained. A hymn was sung, and still it rained. Rev. Jos. S. Strong and the candidate approached the water, and still it rained. Prayer was said and the candidate immersed, and just as Rev. Strong raised Bro. Woodfork from the water as if by way of divine benediction the cloud slipped off the sun. The sun was not obscured, again until it fell behind the horizon, splashing in a glorious sea of gold and purple and red. No one who was there could forget the scene. When the faithful returned to the boat a song and praise meeting was begun, and such a meeting as charged the air with its power.

At the conclusion of the meeting Charles Charleston, whose wife is one of the founders of the Club, confessed religion. Rev. Jones could not attend the excursion because he was engaged in town burying the dead. While one part of the church was saying farewell to the pastor, was going to a land of rest, another portion was receiving others into the land of action, one soul was returning to its maker, the other just recognising its maker, the unclouded sun a benedict to all. Hike on H. Y. W. Kers. The most novel and unique function of the week was a "Kimono Party," given by Miss Adina Adams to a party of ten ladies, none of the horrible sterner sex being present. The guests did not arrive until near midnight, each one bringing a kimono. Street attire was doffed and the kimonos donned and with the partaking of a delightful lunch the fun began. Then sang languid songs, and screamed, as only females can. Mattresses were spread upon the floor, making one large bed, big enough for the accommodation of the entire party, but it was not until daybreak that Morpheus overcame their jubilant spirits and they slept until called to breakfast, about 9 o'clock the next morning, after partaking of which, they departed for their several homes. The jolly party included: Misses Laura and John, and Misses Laura Belle Robinson, St. Louis; Clio Hunton, Montreal; Sarah May Talbert, Buffalo; Adah Lewis, Minneapolis; Gertrude Howard, Loucella James, Albreta Bell and Mrs. Harriette Cage. --- ```markdown ``` HOURS: 20 TO 18 A.M. 1 TO 6 P.M.
