Georgia, that hellhole of Americs has gone a step further in its injustice to its good citizens who happen to be darker in complexion than those whc control the destinies of that more or less grand old. commonwealth, The state senate by a unanimous vote has passed a bill which will pro hibit white persons from teaching in the colored schools either public or private, in that state. The bill is intended as a slap at such schools at Atlanta University, Gammon Theological Seminary and others, in which practically all of the Instructors are white men and women. One of the worst features of the case is the seeming indifference of the yeolored people ‘whose liberties are ‘again attacked by the infamous meas ure. So far as we are able to learn, no strong protest has been made, One Atlanta colored paper printed for four days the bill that was passed but evidently did not consider the matter ‘as worthy of mention even’ In iis news columns, for not a single line concern- Ing it appears, and we have scanned the columns carefully. ‘The Southern colored people owe a debt of gratitude to the noble band of white people who have left their homes in the North, from the time of the slaveholder’s rebellion to the present and have gone into the South, where they have been socially ostra- NY / ) ue = : — Za", oe ea gg ‘hy ar = \ tN HN \ \ HS ' HON.

Landrith of the South jumped up and shouted: “We are go ing to get behind the “negro” and up litt him. We are going into the “negro” churches and organize C. E. Clubs of “negroes” and so on ad infin ‘tum, ad buncum, ad nauseum, and there was great applause IN CHI. Caco.

Ty Christianity to people who already have more than thelr share of it. If the good brother really wishes to change conditions the proper thing to do is to carry Christianity to the red necks, hill billies and crackers of the South, carry it to the WHITE people who are the cause of the NEGRO problem, ‘The whole matter is simply bunk. While the C.

A great mass meeting was held at the foot of the Washing- ton monument. Commander John 8. Moore, U. S. N. retired, presided. Mr. Moore said: “There has been much said and printed recently about hyphenated Americans, We are gathered heré today to launch a crusade that 1s na- tion-wide, to make the celebration of Independence day and Americanization day go hand in hand for all time, and to wipe out forevermore the hyphen in American citizenship,” In St, Paul and Minneapolis hund- Teds of newly naturalized citizens and hundreds whose citizenship is of longer standing repeated the oath of allegiance and all over the country “Americanization” programs were car- ried out, the object being to bring all People of the United States into closer unity and a common understanding of American citizenship: and: Arherican ideals. . This is an opportune time to call attention to the fact that there are more than 10,000,000 native Americans who for many years have been treated as aliens because they are darker in complexion than the aliens who have become naturalized. ‘The Supreme Court of the United States has re- cently decided that the efforts of the south to nullify their votes are null and void and that they are cltizens Suiloed: whe colored citizens are native Americans with several generations of American ancestors and there is ab> solutely no reason why’ they should de differentiated in any way from any other citizens, native or naturalized. It is well to erase the hyphen and the word “negro” as a racial name for colored Americans ought to’ blotted out at the same time, forever. “NEGRO8” AND MULES NOT LisTeD. The British steamer Armenian sunk recently by a German submarine, car- ried, besides ner’ regular crew, 106 men who were signed aboard her to attend to the 1422 mules which the ship was carrying for the use of the ‘English army in the war zone. | The Associted Press dispatch stated that nineteen of the muleteers. were white men and gave a list of thelr name and" addresses and continued: “Besides these nineteen white men there were 87 negro muleteers.” It was evidently not considered of sufficient importance to waste money telegraphing the names and residences of the mules or—the “negro” mule- teers. NO CREDIT DUE SOUTH. It is sickening to read some of the slush written by colored men anent the recent Grandfather Clause dec!- sion—they give the south credit for the decision and slop over in thelr praise of the “Southern Christian Justices.” As a matter of fact only three of the nine justices are southern men; the other six being of northern birth, The south deserves no credit whatever. __ ‘The case was so clear that even the southern justices did not care to risk their names going down in history with the opprobrium which attached to Justice Taney in the Dred Scott decision, __ ‘There is no reason why the south should be lauded except the beotlick- ers would be unhappy unless they ‘were busy. MISSISSIPPI’S “MOST.” United States Senator John Sharp ‘Williams has been proclaimed “Mis. sissippi's most distinguished states. man” by a committee appointed by Gov. Brewer of that state at the re- quest of the president of the Panama Pacific Exposition. _ Williams’ stock in.trade is abuse of his colored fellow citizens who const tute about onehalt of the population of Mississippi. The committee did well to select John Sharp Williams, because he is a true exponent of the Mississippi idea. It may be a surprise to many people to learn that when racial questions were discussed in ‘Congress, Williams was more vehe ment and vitriolic in his denunciation of one+half the people of his state than that otter Mississippi saint, James K ‘Vardaman. Northern people had conceived the idea that “Jimkay” was the champion negrophobist of Mississippi, but he couldn't fool the committee of disting uished white citizens of that more ot less grand commonwealth. TOO EARLY TO THROW UP HaTs. The colored people of the country should not get excited over the “Grand father Clause” decision ‘of the Su: Preme Court.The millenium has not ar. rived. This is certain that the South wil endeavor to find some means to keep colored men from voting. The literary and property tests are in effect in nearly every Southern state and al- ‘though they will be overcome eventu. lly, for many years to come, colored ‘men will be prevented from voting by the registrars who control the situa tion. They will decide that the voter is not qualified no matter how intel- ligent he is, Already in Oklahoma immediate legislative action is advocated by the leading Democratic papers and poli- ticians to correct the “evil.” ‘The colored man has not yet gotten back to the ballot, but he’s on his way. : — ’ "NO JIMCROWISTS. NEEDED. More than two hundred colored men are applicants for presidential ap- ointments under President Wilson.

No one can be said to know any lass of people who has not. been in intimate and sympathetic relation with the best_as well as the worst of the class, We compare many persons who live in the South, and think they know the colored race, with others who have hed no such contact, but who have come into intimate and sym. Dathetic relations with Jarge numbers of that race whom thelr Southern friends have never known; and of the two sets of people we should say that the second knew the colored people better than the first, ‘They know aspl rations among them that the others do not know, or, knowing, do not enter into and appreciate; they know capabilities by direct contact with the best of the race which others are oblt vious of; they know qualities which ‘only respect and. sympathy can bring ‘out; they know possibilities to which others by thelr very acquaintance are ‘blinded. If those who know the col: ored race through the mass and by observation merely could know what individual possibilities are demon: strated in growing numbers of the elect, and would be courageously can- ald with, themselves, they would re vise their judgments and possibly sot ten thelr prejudices. At any rate, they ought to credit to those on whom they charge ignorance of the colored race the values that come trom know- ing how many of that race are the equal of any members of the dominant tace in the highest abilities and in the clearest alms. No estimate is worth much which does not take people at their best. * Embitters All but Docile Negro. (From the Savannah Tribune.) In many of the Southern States, years ago, colored troops were allowed and maintained. One by one. these states disbanded the colored troops, Georgia was better orgonized than any of the other states, and was the last to disband the colored trops. In event of war, especially of any durdtion, the colored man will be badly needed, but has he been trained or has he been encouraged to take up arms to fight in defense of his country?

Other Health and Accident Companies Follow. You know, what it means when somebody tells you, that this, that or the other health and accident policy is "as good as the Continental Casualty Company"—it may feel you like arguing the matter but. FOR SALE. SPECIAL. THE UNIQUE there's never any doubt about the continental Casualty Company's policy. It was the first company to write complete protection policies, the first to employ colored agents, and has kept pace with progress of the country; it is the largest of all health and accident companies and is the only one that operates in every state in the union. During the year 1914 the Continental collected, approximately, twice the amount of premiums, in the State of Minnesota, as its nearest competitor, and paid out in claims more money than any other company collected in premiums. This large volume of business enables the Continental Casualty Company to give its policy holders a little better protection for a little less money than any of its competitors.

Postmaster General Burleson has issued a circular stating that every person in the United States ten years old or over may open an account in a postal savings bank after July 1st. One does not have to live where the postoffice is but may open an account by mail. Postal savings receipts have broken all previous records the past year. During the eight months prior to April, 1911, a net gain in deposits of $19,000,000. The St. Paul bank was, organized Sept. 1, 1911, and up to the present time has received in deposits $2,505,086. During this same period the withdrawals have amounted to $1,760,890, leaving a credit to the depositors May 1st, of $744,136. Interest to the amount of $15,618.50 has already been paid to depositors and $97,580 worth United States government bonds purchased. The St. Paul Bank has 5,093 open accounts subject to withdrawal, with accrued interest at a moment's notice. Our institution is ranked among the few in the country in amount of federal deposits the depositors are of every nationality. Postmaster Raths says he hopes to bring the deposits up to $1,000,000 during the coming year. Repairing Old Pianos. W. J. Dyer & Bro are doing some of the finest work in the country in repairing and re-finishing old planes. The original beauty of tone is fully restored and the planes come out of their shop with re-finished cases looking like new. Charges are reasonable. You can find out just what it will cost to have them made like new by asking them to make an estimate, for which there is no charge. Happy Indeed! If we noticed little pleasures, As we notice little pains, If we quite forget our losses, And remembered all our gains, If we looked for people's virtues, And their faults refused to see, What a pleasant, cheerful, Happy place this world would be.
