"MAN OF NEGRO ORIGIN."
The St. Paul Pioneer Press publishes daily a department headed, "Mail to the Editor" in which there is always something good. One day this week the following communication appeared:
"One of your recent contributors to the Mail Bag makes 'pithecanthropous erectus' the Adam of the human family. But according to such well-known authorities as Prof. Augustus H. Kean of the London University, in his 'Ethnology' and 'Man, Past and Present'; Prof. Gussepp Sergi, professor of anthropology at the University of Rome, Italy, in his work on 'The Mediterranean Races', and our own Prof. William Z. Ripley, in his work on 'Races of Europe'; Dr. Brinton, in his 'Races and Peoples', as well as other scholars versed in this department of knowledge repudiate the hypotheses postulated by the older scientists, and advocate the following pronouncements as most worthy of the consideratn of the scholars learned in the science of anthropology:
First—The present races of Europe are mere offshoots of a primitive race now extinct. This extinct race was an off-shoot of an African or Negro race, who migrated from Africa into Europe during the glacial and preglacial period. 'Homo sapiens', 'homo heidelbergensis', 'neanderthalensis', 'loanthropes', and all other early European troglodytes had an African, therefore Negro origin.
"Chancellor David Starr Jordan of Leland Stanford university virtually says ditto to the conclusions of Rhipley, Kean, Sergi and others. And as regards the 'Aryan race' of the high schoolroom, why, the science of ethnology can find no trace of its existence. The word 'Aryan' means light, learning, culture, education in the arts, science and industries. It is a ' linguistic' and not an ethnological term. The theosophical writers and theological literature claim that the Anglo-Saxon, Celt, Dane, Teuton and the inhabitants of the United States are
THE SIN OF SILENCE

To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest.

Whoever he may be, he evidently knows something of his subject and he will cause some of the hide bound colorphobists to sit up and take notice. So mote it be.
SAVAGE GEORGIA WHITES.
The Atlanta Constitution has for years filled its columns with false stories of the lawlessness of the colored people and has caused the lynching of many innocent men and women.
The Constitution now comes forward with a true story of white savagery, which is so remarkable that we reprint it in full.
The strangest part of this strange tale is that it is not a fictional story of the remnants of a primeval race in a strange and distant land, spun, perhaps, by the weird fancy of a Jack London, but that it happened in the civilized land of Georgia. It's the experience of Robert S. McCord, of the Georgia Children's Home Society, as told by himself.
He brought to Atlanta the other day from the hills of Floyd county four small children—the youngest $4\frac{1}{2}$ and the eldest 9 years, and he placed in a public hospital another suffering from scatic rheumatism and the loss of a toe.
This is the story:
There came to Mr. McCord reports of two mothers and five children living in destination verging upon savagery in an unfrequented section of Floyd county. With the sheer aid of Floyd county Mr. McCord went to investigate.
Back up in the hills they found the home—a crude arrangement of tattered tent cloth, logs, and mud, built by the hands of the two mothers who lived there with their brood of five.
The older of the mothers was just in the prime of her years, but already bent with the toll of a lifetime. The younger was only 16 years, her child being about 4 years old.
The children, clad in mager stretches of cloth, skittered, like chipmunks, in and out of the gaping holes of the improvised structure. Their mothers squatted near an open fire burning several feet distant from the hut under a battered tin boiler in which all their food was cooked.
The jargon of the mothers was so illiterate that it was barely intelligible. When it was understood that the newcomers were there for the purpose of carrying away the children, the mothers went mad with rage.
The eldest snatched away from him the child Mr. McCord was leading by the arm to a big automobile that stood in the roadway. She flew at his throat, screaming incoherently. The other members of his party were a considerable distance away. The younger mother snatched from inside the crude hut, a single-barreled shotgun, and levelled it upon the association officer. The sheriff struck the gun from her hands before it was discharged.
The officials were compelled to subdue both women before the children could be safely removed.
For a long time now, the terrible war that is being waged between eleven nations, has been the all absorbing thing everyday. But the interest in the battles of the nation will surely have to give way, for few hours, to the fistic battle between

And the effects of this battle, no matter which is victorious, will be as far reaching as any engagement that may occur among the warring nations on that day. We do not care a rap which one wins or loses, from a pugilistic standpoint.
THE DEMISE OF THE SIXTY-THIRD
CONGRESS.
(Cincinnati Enquirer (Dem.);
(Ucscinnati Enquirer (Dem.): "A dispassionate review of the work of the Sixth-ty congress brings little to congratulate the people of the United States upon and much to condemn that body for. Its sins of omission and commission were many; its works, in advancement of the interests of the people and of the nation, few and far between. Brought into existence upon the summit of a wave of progressive reform; given power upon promises plainly and definitely expressed, it demonstrated· incapacity from the beginning and deliberately repudiated in numerous instances policies and principles it was elected to promote and maintain. It produced a tariff law that fails to secure the revenues needed for sound administration of the country's affairs, and it enacted a levy for taxes in a time of profound peace. Need we go farther than this as an evidence of its weakness, incapacity and failure to grasp the require-
ments of the republic?"
No, unless you would call the attention of the country to the mistreatments of the loyal old soldiers and Afro-Americans in the departments at Washington, D. C., and elsewhere in the federal service, at home and abroad; and the patronizing, in every way, of former traitors, ex-Confederates, by the Wilson administration which, of course, includes the Southern democratic Sixty-third congress.
GOOD WORK, MR. TYLER.
The Cleveland Gazette, speaking of the increase of race prejudice in Columbus, Ohio, tells a little story of the commendable action of Ralph W. Tyler, former auditor for the Mayor: "A motion picture theater in East Long street recently hung out a sign reading: 'First five rows in the rear reserved for colored patrons.' Learning of it, Mr. Tyler went out and saw the sign, then called up the chief of police, over the phone and demanded that he cause the sign to be removed, clearing it was an insult to 15,000 colored citizens, and stated, if the authorities did not remove the sign inster he would tear it down if he had to go to jail for it. The sign was removed." That was an heroic action. THE APPEAL also commends Mr. Tyler's recent article in which he condemns the use of "negro" as a race name. Mr. Tyler thinks that American is good enough for all people born in this country and so does the writer.
Do not be satisfied with Jim crow accommodations in any public place. It is criminal for a colored man to advocate separate public schools, separate public libraries, separate public play grounds or separate public institutions of any kind. There can not be two standards of citizenship in a republic.

Before the First Easter Day
Before the First Easter Day
ON Palm Sunday each year the minds of millions of Christians the world over are occupied with thoughts of a scene in Jerusalem.
On the eastern spur of the Mount of Olives lies the little town of Bethany, a few furlongs away from Jerusalem. On the memorable morning of his entrance into the city Jesus secured near Bethany the donkey upon which he made his memorable journey to Jerusalem. The occasion was the feast of the lord and pilgrims from Gail and easter and easter and pilgrims in which his ministry had been performed, accompanied him upon the journey. As they beheld him riding on an ass (the royal beast in the days of David) the hopes of the multitude were suddenly revived. Quickly the news of his coming spread through the long lines of pilgrims. Those ahead tore palm branches from the trees by the wayside, while others spread their garments and cloaks along the way on he was to pass, while they all joined him. Jesus washes His hosta to the son of David. Blessed is he who cometh in the name of the Lord!
Slowly the procession came around the southern end of the Mount of Olives, with the gorge of the Kedron to the south, until the wonderful city of Jerusalem burst into view. Then, descending into the valley, Jesus entered the city, midst of a cheering multitude of people, who waved their palm branches before him. Just as the sun was setting behind the hills he found his way to the temple. He sought not a waiting throne, but a quiet place for worship. Then in the hush of the evening, refusing to give any encouragement, he stopped, hopes of the populace, he quietly returned to his humble home in Bethany.
The gate, as we see it today, is entirely sealed. Many hundred years after Christ and passed through it the city fell into the hands of the Turks, and it was their belief and fear that our Lord Jesus was about to return and re-enter the city through this gate. It was not their will that he do this, and they believed that by sealing it up in this manner his coming would be prevented, and so it remains to this day, the Sealed Golden gate, the most remarkable and interesting Biblical landmark in the world.
How to Dye Eggs
If you will save the dry, brown skins on onions and boil the eggs with the onion skins long enough for the eggs to be hard you will obtain beautifully dyed Easter eggs of various shades of brown, with no taste of the onion and no danger of poison, as from some other dyes—Woman's Home Companion

"BACK TO THE FARM."
The cry of "Back to the farm" should now be changed to "Back to the ballot." The ballot is about the only thing that will check these outrageous assaults upon the constitutional rights of the colored people in this country.
The foregoing is from the Richmond Planet and there is more common sense in those seven lines than is usually printed in seven columns of the average paper. Editor Mitchell has certainly struck the key note of the cause of the trouble.

DANCING IN CHURCH.
Forms a Part of the Easter Services In the Cathedral of Saville.
This cathedral at Seville has the distinction of being the first church in Christendom where dancing forms any part of any ceremony or service. Here a dance called the "Dance of the Selses," is performed before the high altar during holy week. It is in imitation of the dance of the Israelites before the Ark of the Covenant, and even in Spain is of very ancient origin. Imagine the cathedral on such an occasion crowded with people, seated and standing. In front of all the others are the priests of priests and church dignitaries, all of whom are members, who include a fair sion speaker, before the high altar. A piece of carpet covers the marble floor, on either side of which stands a row of boys from eight to twelve years of age, dressed like Spanish gentlemen of the middle ages, with white stockings and a large plum in the hat. At a signal from a priest the soft music of violins breaks the profound silence of the church and the boys proceed to execute several and graceful figures. Later they join in and sing a musical song, which in the obscurity of the thedalral sounds like a choir of angels, and finally they accompany dance and song with their castanets.
Two centuries and over ago an archbishop of Seville desired to put an end to this ceremony, thinking it unbecoming the church and the Master in heaven. But the people of Seville thought otherwise and were determined to give it up without a struggle. They appealed to Rome. The pope of that city appealed to appease the people of Seville and at the same time put an end to the dancing, gave his permission for the ceremony to be continued on condition that the dance should be given up as soon as the suits, which the boys then had, were worn out. What resulted? The suits have never been worn out. How have they been skillfully repaired with metal and a piece there, and now, after two centuries, the suits are still as good as new, and the dance is still given.

NATURE herself gives to humanity her choice treasures when she clothes the world with grass and flock. This awakening brings a promise of beauty to last for many months. All mankind hath joy with the dawning of the sun, and arise in the deep, hidden springs of the heart, new joys lend brightness to the eye and the cheek, and new love radiates the heart, working its wondrous miracles upon whomsoever it descends. The highest type of love is the unselfish, sacrificeful love to attain the unalloyed quality we must give.
---
The influence of the church is strongly felt by the common people of Greece. They keep its long fasts religious and for fifty days before Easter eat neither meat, fish, butter nor eggs, but live on gis, olives, bread and wine. On the Friday before Easter funeral services are held for Christ in all the churches, and at the close of the services the congregations go out to bury him. Brass bands play slow music as at military funerals, and the procession carries black banners, crosses and other emblems of mourning, while great multitudes follow bearing candles.
Why the Lily Means Easter.
The lily is typical of Easter because of its whiteness and personification of purity. In its natural state it blooms about Easter time in France, its native home.
Easter Day
The brook has found its voice-again.
The lark has found the blue,
The crowsbub has found the sun,
The swallow has found the butterfly has found the light.
The grass the green of May,
Alas the joyous life

His Point of Interest.
"Will you be kind enough to remove your hat, madam?" the usher asked at the summer theater in an unstylish whisper.
"Why should I?" the woman asked.
"There is nobody behind me. Who wants me to take my hat off?" "That man back there."
"But it doesn't obstruct his view of the stage. am three seats to the right of him."
"That is true, amam, but you cut off his view of the women in the right lower box. That seems to be what he is interested in."
RACE PREJUDICE

—H. G. V.
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.

A PROTEST FROM FREEDOM'S BIRTHPLACE.
I hang my head for shame that a committee of the Anglo-Saxon Race, to which I belong, has reported to the Congress of the United States a bill to provide separate cars for Colored American citizens in the District of Columbia at the seat of the Nathaniel P. Perry School, presented at the close of the Civil War fifty years ago, would have excited less comment.
It is rather late in our country's history to separate any class of our fellow citizens from another class in the United States. Representatives of the Hobey Irish, and Latin races may ride where they please. If Booker Washington, on whom Harvard conferred a degree of LL. D.; Prof. Pickens, who was an attorney of the Civil War, Bois, the editor of "The Crisis"; former Attorney-General Lewis; and William Monroe Trotter must be put into separate cars in Washington as being unfit to associate with their fellow citizen who is time vigorous protest were made. This is much more objectable in the capitol of the Nation than elsewhere. Visitors from other nations will have to our Congressional Library in other cities, and they will have an object lesson hourly before them in the separation and degradation of our fellow citizens. One provision of the law which it is our duty to impose on imprisonment for six months for anyone who violates its provisions, and this applies to those in charge of street cars, taxicabs or any vehicle carrier. Conductors, porters, etc., are authorized as special police for its enforcement.
That this is a part of a previously determined and clearly defined Southern policy is obvious from a letter written by the author of this paper by Thos. H. Caraway, a professor who reported the proposed law and who wrote on the stationery of the House of Representatives under date of October 1913: "I shall vote for every measure that tends to segregate the races, with reference to residence, transportation, and occupation, and I believe that measures of that kind are passed at the coming term of Congress." From this it appears that he wishes Colored people to live only in a certain part of the city, ride only on cars that are not owned, or to deprive them of many occupations where they can earn an honest living.
The writer of this editorial takes this ground, that segregation is always a badge of inferiority and is so inorganic based on color alone, is always Let no one think that we would do away with classes in society. There will always be a wide gulf between the located and the ignorant, the virtuous and the vulgar and the gentle and refined, but all these conditions are not based on a person having one-eighth or one-thirty-second of African blood in his but are based upon conditions which he can not submit to every difficulty and tame submission to the recent visit of the editor of this paper to the White House he had gone in at the back door with a basket asking for cold victuals, all would have been in front of where he went in at the front door of the White House and looked the President straight into the eye and asked for justice, he was met with the remark that he spoke with a "background of passion" and a "backdrop of one of his life," was not acceptable. No one would have some warmth. He would be less than human if he had not, when he felt that he was spokesman of 10,000,000 American citizens, asking not for favors, but asking for race should repudiate the leadership to be more concerned with the superior advantage of leghorn pullets for farmers and the fact that there is not a large aplee raised in each Colored family with the fact of the loss of the halot, lynchings, African exclusion, intermarriage and finally separation in cars, based on color alone. Let us pray that he who shall get out of the arena of freedom and get into the arena of freedom and the rights of man.

remember, as one has said, that only the Golden Rule of Christ can ever bring in the golden age of man, and that he must resist the temptations, ministers and editors agitate and protest until the lowliest citizen has his rights under the flag, lest the brains of Heaven descend on us as a nation. WILLIAM D. BRIGHAM.
That we much rather be, and associate among ourselves, is a saying by Colored Americans that has become almost tite. That is a mistake; it is a feeling of avowed cowardice and unfortunate impatience for the two races, and subscribe to a common government, and, at the same time, each race work out its own salvation. The "theory" has been tried and resulted into a ghostly difference in the false and treachery leadership that the two races wrong, that it only breeds race hatred and antagonism; that the thing for us to do is to get property and other rights will inevitably follow. We have heeded too much, and have failed and treachery leadership that the two races fully and have been rewarded in terms of residence segregation, street segregation, confiscation and loss of property, anti-intermarriage—which is of the blackest pieces of legislation defenseless and by the mercy of white brutes — separate schools, jimcrow cars, and even legislating to exclude further. Negro immigration. These are the results from by "nonresistance" and by "nonselfless." That with the same degree of efforty and terrible legislation with which our property is taken and confiscated, with this same efforty and manhood rights to be taken from. That is a fact. Every congress offers legislation degrading and inimical to our well being. Race prejudice, can only be worn down by attitude, and manhood children, and go ourselves, to mixed institutions and other places where we can mix with the other races and consequently become accustomed to being treated with kindness.

To my friends of the Twin Cities I take this method of sending my heartiest Easter Greetings.
St. Paul, March 30, 1915.
To the Editor:
I have for a number of years read and admired the writings of Mr. A. V. Hall, but his latest poem of "niggh" sarcasm hit me hard as one among the gullty, yet our leaders who persist in conducting "Lily White" shops look odd in the garb of preachers of race pride and anti-jim-crowism, and it would behove many of us to review the good old lesson of the "mote and the beam."
I owe eighty-five percent of my success in the Northwest to the "white man" and I am not yet able to live independent of him. Although I hope in many small ways to continue to help my race as effectively as the sounding of "loud brasses."

AFRO-AMERICAN ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION.
Never before has that get-together spirit been shown by the Negro men of the city as it is now. Apparently they have seen the necessity of UNION AMONG MEN, and are taking a step forward in their progress. The example set by the twenty-seven men, who were present at the get-together banquet on February 15, and who pledged themselves to co-operate with their fellow men in the uplift of our men and boys in the city, has been taken by 100 men or more. A large per cent of this number have already paid part of their initiation fee for membership in the Athletic Association.
The membership committee is making a thorough canvass of the city and are meeting with great success. At the McCracken banquet on last Monday evening, every man present was signed up for membership, bringing our membership list up near the 100 mark. With the present amount of interest continued, St. Paul promises to have as fine a Colored Athletic Association as there is in the west. The Negro is his own salvation, and through him must come the solution of those problems that have to do with his race. The part that the Athletic Association intends to take in helping to solve those problems is to develop stronger, healthier, better men for a stronger, healthier, better race. H. R. Crawford, Gen. Sec.
THE PRESIDENT AND THE AFRO-AMERICAN.
(From the Chicago Tribune.)
We are not ready to concede that any body of citizenship has less standing under the law than any other. If 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 nation it is asked to declare that the main principle of the nation is a piece of hypocrisy and does not apply where it is inconvenient.
No adverse legislation was passed by the Congress just ended, but this does not mean that the fight is over. It will be introduced in the next Congress and in the meantime some of the states will try to put some jim crow stuff over. Colored people should be ready everywhere in the country to fight proscriptive legislation. "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty."

Professor Charles Frederick Chandler of Columbia University, a well known chemist, declares that beer is the best brain food. In a recent address 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 to 4 per cent alcohol and also cichin, which is real brain food. Beer and bread both made from cereals; bread with water and is solid; beer with more water and is liquid. Yeast converts both into palatable and readily digested food. Both contain alcohol. Beer is not intoxicating in ordinary form. Of the foods that is free from beeria. It is appetizing and aids digestion. I don't believe there is any beer made in the United States that is what you call adulterated. It may be misbranded, but not adulterated. If the prohibitionists drive beer from the household they will deprive a large part of the population of a wholesome article of food."
"Charity makes for slaves, cowards and sycophants," said "Mother Jones" of Colorado mine field fame, recently. Her words are true.
Men cheat their employees out of what is their just due and become rich and when they have accumulated millions they pose as "philanthropists" and endeavor to perpetuate their names by giving money for libraries or "charities," or Christian (?) associations.
Instead of being great philanthropists, these men, in many cases, are simply thieves who really ought to be in prison for having robbed their fellow men.
The class has suffered more from the "philanthropists" of these rich inves than the colored people and their narcissistic work has been aided by so-called colored leaders who have taken the role of public mandicants and have begged for money to organize jimcrow institutions and thus prevent their own class from securing their rights as American citizens.
The product of the segregated institution is usually a crop of young colored people with slavish instincts; cringing cowards, servile sycophants. Great God deliver the people from such charity and give them justice.
LOOK AND READ.
The Board of Managers of Crispus Attucks Home wishes to call the attention of the public to its big rally to raise $500, which is now in progress, and makes an earnest appeal to the good people of the Twin Cities to help by donating something toward this worthy cause. We thank you for what you have done, and thank you in advance for what you do. J. N. Sellers, Chairman, O. C. Hall, Secretary. "Beer a Food."
A bill prohibiting the giving of tips on sleeping and parlor cars, has passed the Missouri senate. As the porters on sleeping and parlor cars are all colored men it looks like a bill aimed at that particular class of people. If the Missouri solons wish to be fair they should make the bill include tipe everywhere. We hope it will not become a law.
