Listen to us, Thy children: our faces dark with doubt, are made a mockery in Thy sanctuary. With uplifted hands we front Thy heaven, O God, crying: We beseech Thee to hear us, good Lord! We are not better than our fellows, Lord, we are but weak and human men. When our devils do deviltry, curse Thou the doer and the deed: curse them as we curse them, do to them all and more than ever they have done to innocence and weakness, to womanhood and home.

Have mercy upon us, miserable sinners! And yet whose is the deeper guilt? Who made these devils? Who nursed them in crime and fed them on injustice? Who ravished and debauched their mothers and their grandmothers? Who bought and sold their crime, and waxed fat and rich on public iniquity? Thou knowest, good God! Is this Thy justice, O Father, that guile be easier than innocence, and the innocent crucified for the guilt of the untouched guilty? Justice, O Judge of men! Wherefore do we pray? Is not the God of the fathers dead? Have not seers seen in Heaven's halls Thine hearsed and lifeless form stark amidst the black and rolling smoke of sin, where all along bow bitter forms of endless dead? Awake, Thou that sleepest!

As a matter of fact, theatre-auditoriums and baseball grandstands are seldom crowded; the rule is, not all first-class seats occupied. but many vain Surely as simple as moving from seat to seat a makeshift screen in a street-car, would it be to set apart a certain number of seats in the dress-circle of every theatre. and in the grandstand of every baseball park, for Negro patrons. The reason why this is not done, is perfectly obvious; it would be intolerable to the mother of another woman or woman to sit through the house of a suburban performance or a baseball game on terms of equal accommodation with Negroes, even with a screen between. Negroes would look out of place, out or status, in the dress circle or the grandstand; their place, signifying their status, is the peanut-gallery, or the bleachers. Consider further that, while no Negro, no matter what his occupation, or personal refinement, or intellectual culture, or moral character, is allowed to travel in a pullman car between state lines, or to enter as a guest a hotel patronized by white people, the blackest of Negro nurses and valets are given food and shelter in all first-class hotels, and occasion neither disgust nor surprise in the Pullman cars. Here again the heart of the race problem is laid bare. The black nurse with a white baby in her arms, the black valet looking after the comfort of a infant invalid, have the label of their infertile husband (upon them, they understand them more, everybody understand them, to be servants, enjoying certain privileges for the sake of the person served. Almost anything the Negro may do in the South, and anywhere he may go, provided the manner of his doing and his going is that of an inferior. Such is the premium put upon his inferiority; such his inducement to maintain it. Blease's Defeat. The best piece of information brought to us by the returns of the different primaries in the various States, was the defeat of Gov. Cole E. Blease, in his race for U. S. Senate from South Carolina. Blease, as Gov. proved himself the greatest demagogue and Negro hater now in public life. The Power of the Press (Louisville News.) Charges of crime, accounts of riots, lynchings, etc., as published in white papers have later been proven false and groundless and yet your Colored reader would believe his own father a criminal without further proof than that "the paper said so." VOL. 30. NO. 38. Thou knowest, good God! Awake, Thou that sleepest I BY REV. QUINCY EWING. But we are very far from needing to rely upon any general consideration in support of the proposition advanced above. It is supported by evidences on every hand, waiting only the eye of recognition. Scarcely a day passes but something is or done with this evidence, and we must forget, the conviction for both white man and Negro that the latter is and must remain an inferior. Let me instance a few such evidences. Consider, first, the "Jim Crow" legislation in the manner of its enforcement. Such legislation is supposed to have for its object the separation of the races in trains, street cars, etc., to save the white people from occasional contact with drunken, rowdy, illmessling Negroes, and to prevent personal endures between the whites and blacks. Members of the different races occupy the same cars, separated only by absurdly inadequate little open-mesh wire screens, so tiny and light that a conductor can move them from one seat to another with the strength of his little finger. Needless to add, these screens would serve to obscure neither sound, sight, nor smell of drunken rowdies who sat behind them! In summer cars, black and white passengers may be separated endures neither sound, sight, nor smell of drunken rowdies who are simply required, respectively to occupy certain seats in the front or the back end of the cars. In Birmingham, Alabama, the front seats are assigned to Negroes in all closed cars, and the back seats in all open ones. Why the front seats in the one case, and the back seats in the other, it is not easy to understand in the light of the letter and alleged spirit of the Jim Crow law! The underlying purpose of the law is clearly not the separation of the races in space; for public sentiment does not insist upon its fulfillment to that end. The underlying purpose is that end, seen to be the separation of the races in space. The doctrine of inequality would be attacked if white and black passengers rode in public conveyances on equal terms; therefore the Negro who rides in a public conveyance must do so, not as of undoubted right, but as with the white man's regulation. "This place you may occupy, that other you may not, because I am I and you are you, lest to you or to me it should be obscured that I am I and you are you." Such is the real spirit of the Jim Crow laws. Why is it that in any Southern city, no Negro is allowed to witness a dramatic performance, or a baseball game, in every large city, there are hundreds of Negroes who would gladly pay for first-class seats at the theatre and the baseball game, were they permitted to. It can hardly be that permission is withheld because the剧院 and baseball games are so well attended by half the population that first-class seats could not be furnished for the --- THE APPEAL. ST.

Orangeburg, S. C.:—Rose Carson, a colored woman, was taken from the jail at Eloire near here and lynched by a mob.

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. Ought to Read the Bible (Chicago Defender.) The Lower Branch of the State Legislature of South Carolina passed a bill prohibiting white people from teaching us anything except the Bible. Now if they will only pass a law making it compulsory for the white people to read the Bible, they might gain something by absorption and we wouldn't be the sufferers after all. There are some things in the Bible that even South Caarolinns could read with profit. For instance, "Thou shalt not kill."

The "Christian" emperors have ordered the fool poor people to go out and kill one other 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 killed because they tried to exercise their rights as free men, would be an ideal man for chief of staff. Ben is an attention of the murder-murder; 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 pilers. Why not organize a "Lynchers' Corps?" Let it be under the supreme command of Governor Cole L. Blease, of South Carolina. Senator Bent Tillman, who boasted in the United States Senate that Afro-Americans were 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 colleagues' against half of the residents of his state, and Senator Hoak Smith, whose news-room colleague much to cause the Atlanta riot, are just the men for Prigradier-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. Hefflin of Alabama, author of the jimcrow street car bill; Martin Dies of Texas, noted segregationist; are all "Christians," have a bitter hatred against their dignitaries of other colors and are eminently qualified for places as generals. `THE APPEAL suggests that Frank Park, of Sylvester, Georgia, another "Christian" who introduced a bill in Congress, making it unlawful for "negotes 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 rest could be selected from the locally prominent segregationists and Samuel L. West, a "Christian" and ordinance is certainly entitled to a captaincy.

Johnston Myers, the famous Baptist Bible beater who stated publicly that he would "not 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 Christ but ordered colored Christians to the priest at the production of the "Creation" York; and the Catholic priest in Baltimore who ordered a kneeling Christian woman to have been the sister of an Afro-American Catholic priest, out of his church, can be utilized as assistant chaplains. The Washington clergymen, 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 reservoirs of Bible buncolists. All of these people have many times invoked the venerable blessing on their unigly 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 they have Caucasians pat them on their backs and them "good niggers," ought to be gassed together and designated as body servants for the officers of the corps—they'd be delighted to serve.

For the first time in the history of the United States, the machinery of the government of 90,000,000 people 1s 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 thelr former associ- ates 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 vear this badge of degrada- ton. ‘There is no warrant in law for these orders of subordinate officials, The facts have been brought to the atten- tion 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 humiliat- ed by the segregation orders are In no sense wards of the government. ‘They have won their places by examina and 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 Caucas jans claim to fear, but of civil equality which is the right of every citizen. Heretofore the attempts to degrade the citizenry have been the work o! tndividual states in the Southern tier; the Federal Government must be held responsible for this new attempt tc establish that impossible thing, caste in a Republic.

The massacre was caused by the Incendiary editorials of the Atlanta News and Journal, owned by Hoax Smith, since governor of Georgia and now United States senator from that state, In his gubernatorial canvass Smith also made incendiary speeches incit- ‘ing the Caucasians against Afro-Amer. icans and demanding that the race be disfranchised. This has since been done by legislative enactment. Senator Hoax Smith is said to bo the author of the jim ‘crow policy of the present administration and he has the active support of Vardaman, Wil- liams, Clark, Heflin and nearly every Southerner in Congress. Every Afro-American parent ought to bring “A Litany of Atlanta” to the attention of his children. Let them commit it to memory—it is a gem of perfect English. Let it burn into the souls of your children so that they may know that in its offorts to de- grade the Colored race and reduce it to a condition not far removed from slavery, the South does not hesitate to murder innocent men, women and hi Rireme, TURKEY'S GREAT COUP. That was a neat coup executed by ‘Turkey. Seeing that the time was opportune she has by a stroke of the pen abolished the obnoxious system of extraterritoriality and declared her- self supreme in her own house, ‘The principle of oxtraterritoriality has been very exasperating to the Turks. The alleged “Christian” powers, because the Turks are of Asi- atic origin and Mohammedans, assume that they were unable to handle their own affairs and compelled them by force of their superfor warships to submit to the indignity of allowing consular courts of the various powers to take the place of the regular Turk- ish courts, Then Great Britain, Rus- sla, Germany, France, Austria and Italy established branch postoffices in the various cities of the Ottoman Em- Dire for the use of foreigners and in order to compete with these usurping establishments the ‘Turks were obliged to sell stamps at prices ‘below the regular postal union rates. ‘The subjects of the great powers were treated with more consideration than Turkish citizens and exempt from tax- ation, ‘The situation was almost unbear- able, but the outrageous condition was backed by the combined navies of Europe so what could the poor Turks, who had but a few bum battleships, do? When they voiced strong pro- tests against the injustice of the thing, the Christian powers siiaply pointed to their warships, ‘Then came a change. The great Christian powers began to spring at each others’ throats and while they were engaged in the delightful’ pas- time of murdering men with machine guns, Turkey, whichis now ruled by the “Young Turks” who have modern- ized court procedure and brought the tribunals of justice up to date, seized RACE PREJUDICE. : I am convinced myself that there is no more evil thing in this present world than Race Pre- judice; 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.

The spectacle of three alleged Christian emperors forcing upon the world a fearful bloody war has caused the so-called heathen of the Orient to speak in derision of Christianity and they taunt the native converts with the charge that Christianity is waning and that Christian civilization is only a veneer. This lesson was learned years ago by the Colored people of this coun- try. Although the Afro-Americans have accepted Christianity and in the majority of cases devoutly follow its precepts, they are robbed of their civil rights.in many states, they re- ceive injustice in many courts, hostile legislatures pass discriminating laws and they are mob-murdered in the Southern tier of states. And then American Caucasian Christianity says: We want you to be Christians in order that our numbers may be enlarged, but you are not fit to go to the same church with us, you must go in jim crow Y. M, C. Acs, We might permit a Chinaman or a Japanese or a Malay or an Indian or perhaps a dog but not a “nigger.” As all of these outrages are com- mitted by people who claim to be Christians it is not strange that the Afro-American has little faith in the Christianity of the Caucasian Amer!- can, “By their fruits ye shall know them,” SPREAD OF MOHAMMEDANISM. Every true Christian should be glad to learn of the remarkable growth of Mohammedanism. Among the colored peoples of the world it is outstripping Americans. ‘This may seem a queer statement but it is true. Christianity is so de cadent in America today that there are few real Christians except Afro- Christianity. ‘The souls of American Caucasians have been so warped by the infamous color prejudice rampant in this ‘coun try that in the majority of cases they are not true followers of the Nazarene. Before the awful color line American Christianity stands paralyzed and dumb, ‘There are today 5,000,000 more Mos lems than Christians in the British empire, Oneseventh of the whole human race is Mohammedan and the proportion is not at a standstill; it is increasing yearly. In Asia and Africa more natives are becoming Moham- medans every year than are turning to Christianity. Today nearly all of the sacred places named in the Bible are under Mohammedan rule. There is a reason why the colored races cling to the religion of Moham- med. It is a religion in which there is no color line. The brotherhood of man is not a mere figure of speech as it is in Christianity, but a living real ity.

PARKER-KENNEDY St. Paul and Chicago Join in a | Matrimonial Alliance |Prof. Frederick L. D. Parker, of St. Paul, and Miss Bernice Claire Kennedy, of Chicago, Enter the Harbor of Connubial Bliss ‘There is an old saying, “A prophet is not without honor save in his own country and among his own people,” and as it is found in the Bible it is entitled to some consideration; but, there are exceptions to all rules, and one of the most notable that St.’ Paul has witnessed in regard to that rule, in a decade, was the home coming of Prof. F. L. D. Parker last week. Prof. Parker is a native of St Paul and is the only son of Mr. and Mrs, F. D. Parker, who have been honored citizens of ‘this commonwealth for over thirty years. He went through the public schools and then entered the Univeraity of Minnesota, gradu: ating last year with the degree of Bachelor of Science of Agriculture: and, even before commencement day, he was elected a member of the facul: ty of the State College for Colored Students at Dover, Del. He at once entered upon the discharge of his du- tles and during‘ the past year has made for himself an enviable record for efficiency and worth, During one of his visits to Chicago, he met, wooed and won one of the most charming young ladies of the city, in the person of Miss Bernice Claire Kennedy, and as a culmination of this meeting they were joined—m holy wedlock. ‘The wedding which was one of the largest and most notable that has taken place in Chicago, occurred at St. Thomas Episcopal church on Wednesday evening, Sept 2, at 8:30 o'clock, On arriving at the church the wed: ding procession was headed by the cross and candle bearers who were followed by the surpliced choir of twenty-five males, chanting the wed- ding march from Mendelssohn, ‘The choir was followed by the officiating clergymen, Rey.

Your contention that a few teachers’ salaries amount to nothing compared to the cowardlestnese of the men and ‘women mixed schools give us is true. Our early life was spent in the schoo jof Chicago, never sitting by the side jof children of darker color. Leaving that city and going south to teach, 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 ombraced each other and before all of the clerks he wept with joy and sald to his first jassistant:—“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 grouna-, and O! what a time wo had that day.
