One of the things that we, in this country, should be very thankful for, is that we are not involved in the horrible war which is devastating the nations across the seas, and which has emphasized the assertion made by Gen. Sherman—"War is hell!"—in a very convincing manner. And while we are feasting on turkey, pumpkin pie and the many good things that go to make Thanksgiving Day memorable, let us not forget our more unfortunate brothers and sisters and pray to the Ruler of the Universe for universal peace. TROTTER DID NOT OFFEND PRESIDENT Members of the delegation which went to the White House last week to protest against race segregation in the government departments laid their case before a mass meeting at Washington Sunday. The meeting adopted a formal protest to the American people against "the pronounced tendency in American law and public opinion to draw the color line." Mr. Trotter was one of the speakers and in his address he said: "I emphatically deny that I was in the slightest degree disrespectful, impudent, insolent or insulting to the president on Thursday," said Trotter, referring to his call at the White House. "The president's assumption that I was insolent was probably due to his Southern birth. I am certain that neither my tone nor my manner would have offended the governor of Massachusetts." Other speakers voiced similar sentiments, all disclaiming that Trotter had been insulting or impertinent, and declaring against the president's attitude. On the platform were many of those who had composed the delegation on Thursday, including the following: Thomas Walker, Judge C. M. Hewlett, T. Thomas Fortune, M. W. Spencer, F. Norris Murray, and W.

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 least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Bishop Johnson. At the conclusion of the mass meeting a resolution was adopted appealing to all Afro-Americans to "stand fast for equal rights." In another column we give excerpts from some of the leading daily newspapers of the country protesting against the attitude of President Wilson in condoning the efforts of the southern members of his cabinet to conduct the government along Jim crow lines. In the last issue of The Guardian, Mr. Trotter claims that President Wilson charged insult to cover endorsement of segregation and says that the chief executive of the nation, in violation of his word of honor, when votes were wanted, comes out after two years and declares segregation a benefit to the colored race and inaugurated to avoid racial friction. When told that clerks had worked together for fifty years, the president declared delegate offensive in manner. The historic audience was rendered sensational by the endeavor of Delegate William Monroe Trotter to reply and to refute the elaborate defense of segregation by the president, which President Wilson tried to stop by taking offense, based solely on the tone and "evident passion" of Trotter's voice. Mr. Trotter told the president he misinterpreted his earnestness. The president said everything was all right. Nevertheless the White House gave to the press the statement that Trotter insulted the president. The President may be correct in stating that there is no discrimination in the comforts and surroundings given to colored people, but that does not help matters. It is the FACT of segregation which is wrong. It is un-American to draw any line of demarration between American citizens. The white and colored government employees worked together without friction prior to the Wilson Administration and it should be remembered that work in the Departments is not a social function. There can be no "complete independence" of any one class in this country; such an idea is repugnant to the ideals of a democracy. The President seems disposed to speak patronizingly of the colored people, but in that he is wrong—neither special privileges nor assistance are desired—only justice. The President said the question is not political, but human. In that case it ought to be settled in a human manner and on a Christian basis. The segregation of government employees is an insult to the colored people. It is un-christian and un-American and it ought not be countenanced in a republic. "THE POWER OF AGITATION." THE APPEAL is always pleased to read in the columns of its Southern Afro-American contemporaries editorials which may serve to inspire the race to always protest against wrong. In the article which follows, Ms. Maggie Walker, the banker editor of St. Luke Herald, Richmond, Virginia, truly says, "When the spirit and power of agitation die among a people, they are doomed beyond all hope of resuscitation and redemption." THE POWER OF AGITATION The greatest power on earth for the righting of wrongs, is the power of agitation. When the spirit and power of agitation die among a people, they are doomed beyond all hope of resuscitation and redemption. So important is the power of agitation that the people through the mandates of the Constitution of the United States. The colored man is not an agitator, nor has he ever been. It has dinned him to the heart. He is very soul, that all he has to do toward righting his wrongs, is to wait until THE MAN W I honor the ma- scientious dischar- to stand alone; th ant, intolerant ju- demn, the counter- may be averted, friends grow cold, duty done shall be applause of the w ances of relatives friends.—Charles S I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Summer. Defective Page once when we should owards out of men. has climbed on pro- been raised against thee and lust, the in- d serve the law, and our least disputes. we must speak and right the wrongs of older Wilcox. the Lord himself shall see fit to come down and right them. The idea of peaceably assembling and making intelligent and persistent protest against him, or against foreign to him. Or, should he start an attack and be rebuffed at the start, he loses heart, abandons the effort and gives up like a disappointed child. It is the agitation of the waters of the sea, which prevents stagnation and death. It is the agitation of the air which gives pure air to breathe. It is the agitation of the blood, which gives us the power of motion and life, and it is the agitation of thoughts and ideas which prevents brain stagnation and mental death. When a people lose that interest in themselves, to that extent that they stand supinely by, quietly submitting to wrong, without protest, they have reached the danger point in race progress development. Autonomy is a high sounding word and means self government, but like many other good things it may be perverted. Recently a number of colored ministers and laymen of the Methodist Episcopal Church, met in Nashville, Tenn., and actually petitioned the Board of Bishops to set them apart from the other members of the church, did it in the name of the Lord. The colored members of the M. E. church have no great grievance. They have been given representation in the various activities of the churches. When colored men have been nominated for the bishopric hundreds of white men have voted for them, but because that they have been unable up to this time to elect a colored bishop the men who met in Nashville seem to be willing to jim crow themselves. In the opinion of THE APPEAL it would be far better, far more Christian like for the men who are dissatisfied, to withdraw entirely from the church, rather than to allow the color line to enter the church of God. They could unite with the A. M. E. Church, the A. M. E. Z. Church, or the C. M. E. Church and find colored bishops. That would be better than to start the color line in a Christian church. The men who father this proposition are making a great mistake and they will live to see it. They have really voted against themselves and their children by advocating segregation, for that is what it is. They have voted liberty, against their country and against their God. THE APPEAL hopes that the Board of Bishops will reject their memorial as unchristian and save these men from themselves. Short Walk from Freeman to Serf. (Richmond Planet, Richmond, Va.) It seems to us that agitation is needed and that some well directed effort on the part of the Colored people themselves should be made to oppose the oppression which now settled down all over the country. With the elimination of our political rights has come the interference with our property rights and from freeman to serf is but a short walk in distance. Colored men must be trained to resist the oppression they should not depend upon others to stand up for them. While the women are contending for the right of suffrage, let the Colored men content for the same thing. Political "pull" against us is accompanied by the contention that we should believe that the Colored people should eschew politics. This was the commencement of our undoing and the sooner we get back on the political road again, the better. Rights are controlled and curtailed by the government, and we should be used in our favor, just as the white people have used it against us.

Appropriate Designs Help to Lend Flavor to Thanksgiving Repast. A great deal of the success of a dinner party depends upon the place cards, although they are apparently a very small detail of the table. But any woman who entertains a dinner knows that quaint or unusual favors are called among general enthusiasm and interest among the guests and give a talk of conversation which lends cordiality to the occasion, when otherwise there would be a stiffness and awkwardness at the start which it would be somewhat difficult to overbrow. Thanksgiving is usually the time for a family reunion, and share families together upon such occasions year after year, especially important to introduce as much novelty in the table itself as possible. Silhouette pictures, used for place cards, form interesting and acceptable accessories for the table. These, outlined and filled in solidly in black, may take the shapes of turkeys, hats, or other accessories. Part of the design may be a letter, stitched, for the writing of the name or the silhouette design may be pasted. A TABLE DECORATED FOR TRANSFUSION. on a plain white card. A card which is generally liked and used for such purposes measures 2% by 4% inches and may be purchased at the stationer's. A pair of scissors and a jar of paste, and presto, in a few minutes you have a novelty in place cards which will be easily polished for your use. You do not need to be an artist to carry out silhouette designs. If you desire you may easily outline any picture on tissue paper and transfer it by carbon paper to a card and then fill in the outline afterward by means of a fine camel's hair brush and a bottle of india ink. Some little care must be exercised in making a firm outline, for the ink is not absorbent, for the silhouette must necessarily lay on its outline for character. - Philadelphia Ledger. A Very Cold Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving day in 1871 was remarkable for the bitterly cold weather which prevailed over a large portion of our land. At many points in the northwest the mercury fell from 30 to 40 degrees below zero, while at many places in New England it marked from 13 to 20 degrees below. The great feature of the day was a prizeflight between Jem Mace, the famous gypsy ex-champion of England, and Joe Coburn, an Irish-American pupil, for the championship of the world and $2,000. He visited Montgomery station, near Bay St. Miss, and was witnessed by 500 passengers. Newman seemed anxious to fight, and after they had spired for three hours and thirty-eight minutes without materially damaging each other the referee declared the fight a draw. The Gold of Autumn There is a story—loved by all Germanic people and happily by the rest of mankind who knows it—of gold shining at the bottom of the rushing river of away. No atom of it was ever taken away, because it was guarded by the immortal vigilance. Mans' faith has always been that the gold of an ornament—the shores of the hills will gleam in its light—forks it. He has always worshiped the god of the yellow corn. James Lane Allen in Munsey Magazine. Silver Moon Hotel and Cafe.

Autumnal Glories For Thanksgiving The autumn glories left to us in the fields and woods in November in many parts of the United States furnish material for charming and seasonable table decorations for the Thanksgiving dinner, in addition, of course, the florist may be called upon, especially for the chrysanthemum, always a seasonable and favorite bloom. While the smoked bamboo basket is well liked as a fashionable centerpiece table basket, the woman who is not fortunate enough to possess one may substitute a wicker basket and carry out a pretty scheme. This is to till the basket with a mixture of oranges, late pears, apples and other fruits. Twine a mass of the silvery clematis around this and bring it over the edges, putting alternately red, brown or yellow oak leaves mixed with scarlet bitter-sweet in the decoration, extending it well out over the white cloth. To THE CHRYSANTHEMUM MAKES A FAVORITE TABLE FLOWER. brighten add berries and leaves wherever taste suggests—in trailing lines of clematis and leaves or irregularly. The table lights should be of candles in mahogany, glass, brass or silver sticks, shaded with autumn colors. To make these use a silvery gray paper and stencil or paint on the shades tiny autumn leaves or shape the four sides of each shade like a mapple or oak leaf, tinting them with autumn colors. A spray of bittersweet berries at each plate, with place cards to match the candle shades, completes the decorative ensemble—Philadelphia Record. "THANKS-LIVING." Proper Way to Show Gratitude is Doing Good to Others. Thanksgiving presupposes thankfulness. One cannot give thanks unless he feels thankful, and this feeling is a cultivated habit. As an expression of simple politeness it is not an innate but an inbred trait. Much more is this the case when we consider the thanks that are due to a beneficial Creator. In a time when luxuries are counted as necessities a sense of repletion or dissatisfaction is often felt which makes us more to the everyday, commonplace favors that are often made a list of the essential and vital gifts with which your life is blessed and your heart will begin to glow with thankfulness. It is no accident that "think" and "thank" come from the same root. Thanklessness is usually the result of thoughtlessness. But we are more apt to be thoughtless of the favors that come from God through the working of his beneficent laws than about the material gifts that come from the hand of a fellow man. Stevenson has well said: "Keep your eyes open to your mercles. That part of pltery is eternal, and the man who forgets to be thankful has fallen asleep in life." The true Thanksgiving is thanksgiving, the thankfulness as well as the word of the lip. By giving some one else a reason for thankfulness through your kindness you provide a proper outlet for the brimming, overflowing gratitude of your own heart. For the common prosperity, for your individual blessings, for what you have not as well as what you have, "in everything give thanks."-Rev. Robert J. Pilgram of Pittsburgh SPREAD THANKSGIVING! By the Rev. J. H. JOWETT I regard Thanksgiving day as one of the most gracious and heartening anniversaryaries in the American year. That a people should be thankful for the kindness to reckon the mercies and privileges received at the hands of God is to me a most hallowed and sanctifying ministry and most assuredly enriches and invigorates the mind. But Thanksgiving should not be confined to material bounty. It should extend its range and in its scope be extended to the broadening day of knowledge and in the lifting of all forms of oppression from those who are bearing a needless yoke. It should even go beyond the range of mopolitanism and the monopolitan as it contemplates the leaven of freedom and humanity which is working in every part of the world. Thanksgiving of the wide and ennobled people surely a thankful people, into the ways of unselfish and chivalrous service. Silence is Infamous. 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 that women have been told the women women. By all means they should have been rebuked and their statements proven lies, but as it is, both sections believe it. Shame on the intelligent men and women of our race who allow these base calumniators to press-Ploner Press, Martinburg, W. Va. Leading Daily Newspapers of the Country Rebuke the President for Condoning the Jim Crow Policy of the Southern Members of His Cabinet. NO JIM-CROW GOVERNMENT. (From the New York World.) No President ever suffered more from the foolish indiscretions of members of his Cabinet than has Mr. Wilkerson. He had a further illustration of it yesterday in his unfortunate interview with a delegation of colored men to house to protest against the segregation of races in Government departments. The President should have foreseen this unfortunate issue when Mr. McAdoo and Mr. Burleson were carrying their color-line theories into demonstration that Mr. Burleson told the committee that they had not discriminated in the comforts and surroundings of the colored clerks, but explained that "the he had been informed by officials that the segregation had been started to avoid friction between the object of injuring the colored men," and the defect failed to explain, nevertheless, why no such rule had been considered necessary until Mr. Burleson and Mr. McAdoo got into the Cabinet. For nearly half a century white clerks in the state have worked side by side in the department of Washington, under republican and under democratic presidents. The World keeps itself fairly well informed about Washington affairs, but the first ever heard of this alleged friction was when Mr. McAdoo began his ceedings in the Treasury Department. The president thinks that this is not a political question, but he is wrong. Anything that is unjust, disjunctive and in American in government is unjustified in question. Servants of the United States Government, regardless of race or color. For several years a colored man has been Collector of Internal Revenue. He has found it necessary to segregate the white employees of his department to prevent "friction"; yet he would have had quite as much right to do so as he had to segregate the colored employees of the Treasury in Washington. While the Democrats of the country have been trying to solve certain great problems of government, a few of the Republicans have been allowed to solicit petty local prejudice at the expense of the party's reputation for exact justice. Whether the President thinks so or not, the segregation rule was promulgated as a deliberate discrimination against colored employees. Worse still, it is a small, mean, petty discrimination, and Mr. Wilson ought to have set his heel upon this presumptuous Jim-Crow government moment was established. He ought to his now it now. It is a reproach to his administration and to the great political principles which he represents. Again, Mr. Wilson is reported to have resented Mr. Trotter's statement that if this discrimination were not for him would vote the Republican ticket, and to have declared that this was "political blackmail." But this is the time-honored American way of disapproval of an elective official's choice. Mr. Wilson was a candidate for President in 1912, he declared: "Should I become President of the United States, they (the colored people) may count upon me for absolute fair dealing and for every advantage the could assist in advancing the interest of the United States. On the strength of this many colored people and their white friends advocated Mr. Wilson's cause, who would rather have cut off his ears than allow him to sit on the soffice if they had known that he was intending to draw the color line in the departments upon the excuse that there is a certain point in the relations of the races where friction must be avoided, and an absolute fair dealing nor advancing because, but putting it back, because it sets the stamp of governmental approval upon color prejudice. To expect after this that the problem can be solved, if politics, as Mr. Wilson is quoted as urging, is to expect the impossible. With Mr. Wilson's feelings as to the ultimate solution of the race problem, we are not today concerned. He may or may not have a constructive issue is simply whether a hateful Cain caste shall be established in Washington or not. We had supposed, after the investigations of last winter, that the vicious policy had been checked; understood that it was to be abandoned; instances the Jim-Crowning had, we know been stopped. The more discouraging it is to find the President apparently upholding what the World just calls the "foolish indications of members of the United States of an unequal complaint as to the conditions in Washington. Colored and white employees had worked side by side for fifty years. Some of them had been appointed by Grover Cleveland—being the father of Mr. Trottier, an of the Fifty-fifth Massachusetts. But the Wilson Administration went out of its way to create the issue it now deplores, and cannot see its way to admitting its mistake and reverting to the defensible position of absolute equality in the Government service. The way to deal with race prejudice in such matters is not to enhance it by yielding, but resultefully to confront it, with a refusal to give it in any form. It is not to leave it away in a given situation when it finds itself wholly blocked. It is even more surprising how frequently it is merely a state of wind. Often there is no objection whatever to the presence of colored people on the most familiar streets, but it is clearly stamped as menial; let thereby adhere as equal privileges, and those same people become at once too offensive to be permitted to breathe the same atmosphere. The situation in Washington would be restored in a wholly satisfactory manner, and satisfactory status; if the highest authority were simply to lay down the law that there was going to be a square deal for everybody in the departments without the slightest discrimination; that there can be only one judge; that there be treated with courtesy, consideration and absolute justice. THE PRESIDENT AND SEGREGA TION. (From the New York Evening Post.) It is a sad blot upon the Wilson Administration that it has tolerated, nay, drawn the color me, without permission. It is fully put it, the racial antipathies of Burleson, John Skellon Wil- liams and McAdoo. For an Administration which talks about a New Freedom and boasts of having bestowed a new liberty upon business men, not to mention the wrongs of full ten millions of American dollars, but to add to them is truly important. Mr. Wilson can feel keenly for the governmental wrongs of the "submerged 85 per cent" of the people of Mexico, of whom so many are Indians and of a mixed parentage, but he has yet to say a really sympathetic word to the millions in the South who are not voice in their own government. The difficulty lies, of course, in putting yourself in the other fellow's place, in having some appreciation of what it means to be the victim of what we are doing, without the power to remedy the wrong. That Mr. Wilson is unable to visualize this is, we repeat, the more disappointing because there are so many injured persons with whom he has to deal, and His unusual vision and imagination leave him, however, when it comes to the disfranchisement of women and to permitting his subordinates to infect indignities upon American elite men and women, White House. If he could only be one of the submerged 10 per cent of our people in Washington for forty-eight hours he could never have pallied the wrong done, as he is reported to have been having that segregation was enforced for him, and the interests of both races, in order to overcome friction. He would know then that it makes neither for the comfort nor for the best interests of men, but invariably leads to added friction, and thus lasting unhappiness among the segregated. This problem has vexed him and caused him heart-ache more than once in his Administration, and it will plague him until he lays down the law on his treatment of all employees in the Government service. THE PRESIDENT AND SEGREGA TION. (From The Indianapolis News.) The government, which makes laws for the state, summons all alike to its defense in time of war, cannot rightly make such distinctions. When men and women enter the public service they must comply with the principle. No one is compelled to enter it, but having made his choice he should comply with the conditions of his employment. It is not wholly economic, as Mr. Wilson seemed to think it was—it is political as well, not in the narrow partisan, but in the broad sense. The people of the United States would oppose the adoption by their government that thing resembling the Jim Crow policy. THE PRESIDENT AND THE AFRO-AMERICAN. (From the Chicago Tribune.) We are not ready to concede that any new leadership has less stand under the law than the south wishes to make any such issue as this it will find that the north, where there is prejudice, is nevertheless restless when as a part of the state we declare that the main principle of the nation is a piece of hypocrisy and does not apply where it is inconvenient. DR. SPINGARN'S SECOND TOUR: Well-Known White Advocate of Justice to Tour Country Again. Dr. J. E. Spingarn, chairman of the board of directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and one of the most conspicuous advocates of justice and equal rights for Afro-American students, will make a second tour of the country in the interests of the cause of our race. It will be remembered that last month he addressed meetings in Detroit, Chicago, and Topeka, St. Louis, Indianapolis, and Cleveland, attracting very large audiences wherever he went, and nearly everywhere winning wide publicity in the United States for the cause of justice to the Negro. Dr. Springarn will speak at Wilmington, Delaware, on November 22nd, at Howard University, Washington, D.C. on November 23rd, and at Harrisburg, Ohio on November 24th. His main tour, however, will not begin in January, and he then expects to speak in Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Dayton, Columbus, Springfield, St. Joseph, Omaha, Des Moines, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Milwaukee, and other cities. He hopes by succeeding tours to cover every state he visits, he will be burning message of freedom to the whole nation. All those who are interested in his coming tour, which like all his other work for our race is carled on entirely at his own expense, can obtain further information from the National Association of the National Association of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City.

Superiors Never Burrow Interiors. (Portland, Admirate) A superior race will not lynch and burn an inferior race simply because they have the power. Terrible crimes and brutalities will not be permitted against human beings by a superior race and then seek to find ease and peace for an injured conscience simply on the basis of color. a ss He ST.

In a recent ad- dress he said: “Beer is a beverage prepared from barley, water, hops and yeast. Beer is food. American beer contains 6 per cent solid food, only 3 to 4 per cent alcohol and also lecithin, which is real brain food, Beer and bread both made from cer. eals; bread with water and is solid; beer with more water and is liquid. ‘Yeast converts both into palatable and readily digested food. Both contain aleohol. Beer is not intoxicating in ordinary quantities and beer is one of the foods that is free from bac- terla, It is appetizing and aids di gestion. I don't believe there is any beer made in the United States that 1s what you call adulterated, It may be misbranded, but not aduiterated. If the probibitionists drive beer from the household they will deprive a large Part of the population of a wholesome article of food.” The Valet Tailoring Co, The Valet Tailoring Co., 154 E. sixth street, Mr. Owen Howell, manager, is about'to branch out in great shape, Mr. J.

The Emporium offers this service without any charge whatsoever, just as an accommodation to such as desire to make use of it. A number of Orders in the city are arranging to accept the convenience, beginning with November. RIGHT YOU ARE!

A. has been handed down and it resolved itself into a very concrete form which was set forth in a resolution offered by the committee on membership, which was as follows: The Victory. The Providence Journal published the following report: That no distinction because of race or sex will be considered in receiving applications for membership in the Providence Young Men's Christian Association was the decision reached by the board of directors of that institution at a meeting, held last evening association will exemplify its high ideals. We therefore believe it is sufficient for this board to declare that no reason exists for any change in the principles which have heretofore governed the association in its requirements for membership." And we demand Mr. Hawkins resignation. It seems to us that if Mr. Hawkins could read between the lines he would send in his resignation and not wait until it was asked for. We hope that he will remember that he is in Providence and not in the South. So we warrant, let the board of directors exact of Mr. Hawkins an explanation of his actions which has caused them to be held up to the This action was taken by the directors of objections from some persons to the admission of Colored men to membership in the organization and particularly in the many advantages offered by the new building. As soon as it became known that objection had been offered the matter was taken up by different colored organizations and the directors were urged to take action. Following is a statement given out by the directors after last evening's meeting: The Note. "The Providence Young Men's Christian Association for more than 60 years has served the young men and boys of our city in a broad and liberal spirit, making no distinction in regard to race, for many reasons because of race or sect. We believe that the only test of eligibility must continue to be as it always has been, character and moral worth, and that by such standards of selection the MR. WILSON AND "SEGREGATION." New York—To the Editor of THE APPEAL, Sir: The interview of William Munroe Trotter and the delegation of colored gentlemen with the President of the United States brings forward again the burning question of the treatment of colored civil servants in Washington. The whole incident shows grimly and forcefully how deeply the colored people of this country government injustice which Mr. Wilson's government inflicted upon them and still inflicts. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has been fighting segregation in federal departments ever since the first rumor of it was made public. Over a year ago an investigator was sent to Washington and a report printed. Since that time a representative of the national association has kept in close touch with the local situation, and on one occasion this representative appeared before the civil service committee and helped kill George and Aswell of Louisiana making segregation legal throughout the federal civil service. Much of the segregation has disappeared. When the U street station of the postoffice in Washington was abolished the colored men employed lost their jobs and were interrupted intervention of this association three THE FLOU Rillsbury's BEST XXXX Minneapolis, Minn.

We therefore believe it is sufficient for this board to declare that no reason exists for any change in the principles which have heretofore governed the association in its requirements for membership." And we demand Mr. Hawkins resignation, and if Mr. Hawkins could read between the lines he would send in his resignation and not wait until it was asked for. We hope that he will remember that he is in Providence and not in the South nor Southwest; now let the board of directors exact of Mr. Hawkins an explanation of his actions which has caused them to be held up to the Hiducile of the world. We remember the times when the Colored people were united in an effort and they should be given much credit for their united stand. They are very jubilant over the victory. The fight was led by Rev. J. H. Wiley and Rev. S. W. Smith for the New England Suffrage League and Mr. J. C. Minkins, Rev. J. Harrison and Mr. J. Robinson for the N. A. A. C. P. branded the campaign for our membership. We hope that every reader of the Guardian will-read the letter from the pen of M. E. L. Singsen, a white man, to the Providence Sunday Journal and see if you think that all our friends are dead. We wish to say to those who live in towns and cities where segregation is proposed, fight it with all your might and give me any points we will gladly give the benefit of our experience here. of them were reinstated. When the bureau of engraving and printing moved to its new quarters it was the original idea to segregate colored and white people throughout the entire building, but through the efforts of this association there is no segregation in the lunchrooms or on the roof garden. Segregation, nevertheless, must exist in the Treasury Department and in the Treasury, and possibly here and there in a small degree in other places. It still remains true that for the first time in half century a President of the United States and distinguished members of his Cabinet have deemed it necessary for the peace and quiet of these United States that clerks in the federal service, having passed the same examination, have the same rate of pay, must be separated in their work if the ancestors of any of them had a drop of Negro blood, in some cases the "colored" clerks have been so white in appearance that the officials themselves have made mistakes in classifying them. In other cases clerks of all colors have protested against the attempted separation of the separation has caused humiliation and inconvenience and added cost. J. E. SPINGARN.
