MORATORIUM IN CHRISTIANITY: A "moratorium in Christianity" is proposed by a writer in the Christliche Welt, a leading religious journal in Germany. The writer urges that "in a war of this character, where ruthlessness of an unparalleled type is displayed and where the very rudiments of Christianity are ignored, it would be wise, if Christianity is to be maintained, that it should not be preached or taught during the continuance of the war." "It is a mockery to ask men with bloodstained hearts to approach the table of the Lord." "War is a phenomenon which the church should not be able to bless. It is opposed to every essential of Christianity, and the sooner a moratorium for Christianity is declared the better. There should be no more church nonsense about the ennobling and purifying effects of war." In this country we know something of the mockery of religion when it reaches the color line. In the Southland it is a common thing for men "to approach the table of the Lord" after having engaged in mob murder. Every variety of outrage against the darker race is done in the name of the Lord. Men whose hearts are viler than the devil himself, talk about "uplifting the 'negro.'" The suggestion of the German writer is a good one and the Southern people in general and many in the North ought to put aside their mock- THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence protest makes cover The human race has test.

M. C. A.'s, but in the daily dealings of life. NOT SO PARTICULAR NOW Charles M. Haft has been appointed one of the assistant corporation counsel in Chicago, by Mayor Thompson. Haft is the man who is said to have stirred up a row when a respectable colored man purchased the residence next door to him, and suggested that the colored people buy a tract of land in the suburbs and segregate themselves. Haft is something of a lawyer, his great trouble being race prejudice. He will now have to do business with three colored assistant counsel, a colored chief investigator and a number of other colored men who have been appointed to places in the same office with him, by Mayor Thompson. Haft has the opportunity to resign, segregate himself in his own private law office and thus avoid contact with the new colored appointees, but it is a good bet that the $6,000 salary looms good to him and there is little danger that he'll turn it loose because he is surrounded by colored men, some holding places like his own. GEORGIA, THE DEVIL'S OWN Georgia, that hell-hole of America has gone a step further in its injustice to its good citizens who happen to be darker in complexion than those who control the destinies of that more or less grand old commonwealth. The state senate by a unanimous vote has passed a bill which will prohibit 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 colored people whose liberties are again attacked by the infamous measure. So far as we are able to learn, no strong protest has been made. One Atlanta colored paper printed four days after the bill, was passed evidently did not consider the matter as worthy of mention even in its news columns, for not a single line concerning 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 ostracised, and have devoted their lives to the education of their darker brethren. A protest should be made, even if it is ineffective. It will not only show that the race is grateful for what has been done, but it will also strengthen the manhood of the protestants. Is it possible that colored jimcrowists are really the "niggers in the wood pile?" THE APPEAL has noticed in recent years several articles in jimcrow colored papers, advocating the outing of the white teachers employed by the white people who give the funds to support the schools. In view of the growth of jimcrowism among the colored people of the South, such a condition is not impossible. God grant that the colored people THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man scientious discharge to stand alone; the ant, intolerant jud demn, the counten- may be averted, a friends grow cold, duty done shall be applause of the we ances of relatives 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. once when we should wards out of men. us climbed on pro- been raised against e and lust, the in- serve the law, and our least disputes. we must speak and right the wrongs of er Wilcox. of Georgia have not descended to such depths of infamy! If they have they have they are lower than the fiends who participated in the Atlanta riot of 1906 in which a score of innocent colored men were mob-murdered; tried to lynch a Jew because of race hatred and drove a white governor from the state because he was mercilful. THE APPEAL is opposed to the plan of the Southwestern Christian Advocate to have a socalled vigilance committee at Washington. It is not necessary, as work of a similar character has been accomplished as a business proposition by the National Association for the Advancement of the Colored People for the past two years and inimical legislation prevented. The colored people are not a "voteless" people. In the North they have voted for years and are still voting. The United States Supreme Court has just decided that there is to be no color line in voting in the future, so it is up to the colored people of the South to guard their rights at the fountain head. We feel that we are able to do it in Minnesota. A lobby in Washington would soon degenerate into a political machine and as it is likely that some jimcrowists would be on the committee it is possible that a committee kept up for the purpose of guarding the rights of the people would actually betray them. It is a dangerous proposition. CHRISTIANIZING : THE CHRISTIANIZING THE "NEGRO." Whenever a number of so-called American Christians gather together there is certain to be some jimcrow hypocrisy business and the recent Christian Endeavor meeting at Chicago was no exception to the rule. First there was a season of prayer and then Bro. Landrith of the South jumped up and shouted: "We are going to get behind the "negro" and uplift him. We are going into the "negro" churches and organize C. E. Clubs of "negroes" and so on ad infinitum, ad buncum, ad nauseum, and there was great applause IN CHICAGO. Think of it. Brer Landrith is to carry Christianity to people who already have more than their 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. E. brethren and sisters were groaning and screaming in Chicago, the Georgia crackers were busy lynching "negroes," and an attempt was made to take a Jew who is serving a life term, out of the prison and lynch him and to cap the climax the Georgia court has declared it a crime for a white person to teach a colored person. And then, the next day after his great whoop, Brer Landrith of the South, howsed his estimate of the people in whom he claims to be so greatly interested, by referring to colored children as "pickaninnies." Jimcrow schools, public parks, Y. M. C. A's and other infamies are no proof of Christianity. Repeal the jimcrow laws, cut out the jimcrow car, the jimcrow drinking fountain and other things intended to humiliate and degrade the colored people and then and not until then will THE APPEAL have any faith in Southern Christianity. n who in the con- ge of his duty dares the world, with ignor- gment, may con- nances relatives and the hearts of but the sense of sweeter than the world, the counten- NOT NEEDED. The chief feature of the Independence day celebration at Washington this year was the launching of a crusade to eliminate the hyphen from Americanism. A great mass meeting was held at the foot of the Washington monument. Commander John S. Moore, U. S. N. retired, presided. Mr. Moore said: "There has been much said and printed recently about hyphenated Americans. We are gathered here today to launch a crusade that is nation-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 hundreds 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 carried out, the object being to bring all people of the United States into closer unity and a common understanding of American citizenship and American 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 recently decided that the efforts of the south to nullify their votes are null and void and that they are citizens indeed. The colored citizens are native Americans with several generations of American ancestors and there is absolutely no reason why they should be 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. "NEGROS" AND MULES NOT LISTED. The British steamer Armenian sunk recently by a German submarine, carried, besides her regular crew, 106 men who were signed aboard her to attend to the 1,422 mules which the ship was carrying for the use of the English army in the war zone. The Associated Press dispatched stated that nineteen of the muleteers were white men and gave a list of their 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" muleteers. NO CREDIT DUE SOUTH. It is sickening to read some of the slush written by colored men anent the recent Grandfather Clause decision—they give the south credit for the decision and slop over in their 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 opproblem which attached to Justice Taney in the Dred Scott decision. There is no reason why the south should be lauded except the bootlickers would be unhappy unless they were busy. MISSISSIPPI'S "MOST." United States Senator John Sharp Williams has been proclaimed "Mississippi's most distinguished statesman" by a committee appointed by Gov. Brewer of that state at the request of the president of the Panama-Pacific Exposition. Williams' stock in trade is abuse of his colored fellow citizens who constitute about one-half 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 vehement and vitriolic in his denunciation of one-half the people of his state than that other 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 distinguished white citizens of that more or less grand commonwealth. "SUCH PEOPLE STILL LIVE." "In Georgia—a supposedly civilized state—a Negro, SUSPECTED of stealing a ham from a smoke house, and lodged in jail awaiting trial, was taken from the jail by white men—they must have been men, beasts would never have been so depraved—and shot to death. This, in the United States, in the year of grace 1915. The long suffering of the Negro race is among the wonders of history. Will this patience, under injustice, outrage, violation of rights last forever?" The above is an editorial that appears in the July number of "Our Dumb Animals," published at Boston, Mass. The Louisville News is making a great fight against segregation of residences and tells the colored citizens that they can help by refusing to segregate in other walks of life.

It is amusing to see in a number of colored papers the announcement that a negro has been elected an alderman in Chicago. There is absolutely no truth in the statement. Oscar DePriest who has been elected is a colored man and more white than black. He should be called just what he is—a colored man. He Is A Real Man. (From the Pioneer-Press, Martinsburg, W. Va.) Editor W. P. Dabney, of the Cincinnati Union, is busy day and night these days fighting segregation and all other forms of discrimination in the Queen City. This is noble in him, too, and especially so when it is wawawaw. Mr. Dabney is an official position. Men of that sort are generally as mum as a clam; but this is not so in the case of Mr. Dabney. He is a man. Must Judge A Group by Its Best. (From the Christian Register, Boston, Mass.) No one can be said to know any class 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 had no such contact, but who have come into intimate and sympathetic relations with large numbers of that race whom their Southern friends have never known; and of the two sets of people we should say that they have been the colored people better than the first. They inapplications among them that the other 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 obliquous of; they know qualities which only respect and sympathy can bring out; they know possibilities to which others by their very acquaintance are blinded. If those who know the colored race through the mass and by observation merely could know individual possibilities are demonstrated in growing numbers of the elect, and would be courageously canvassed themselves, they would revise their judgements and possibly soften their prejudices. They ought to credit to those on whom they charge ignorance of the colored race the values that come from knowing how many of that race are the equal of any members of the dominant race in the highest abilities and in the clearest aims. No estimate is worth much which does not take people at their best. Embatters 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 organized than of the other states, and was the last to disband the colored troops. In event of war, especially of any duration, 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? He has been proscribed and debarred of many privileges that are justly his and which would embitter any other race but the docile Negro. Each Victory Encourages. (From the Martinsburg Pioneer-Press) All hall to our brave conferrer the Hon. H. C. Smith, editor of the old reliable Gazette for going to the Governor of Ohio, and preventing that infernal play, "The Nigger," to be exhibited in the great state of Ohio. To boldly fight such impositions is the unfinishing duty of every decent man among us. Every victory won by the few courageous agitators encourages others to step into the arena of defence; and may the time come soon when cowards will be unknown, and all stand united for manhood rights. --- is the Twin love with Fine N back at frequent int eed for special part Oldwood Park electric Train at S or 10 Cents with t any Interurban Paul-Minneapolis Lake or Snelling , 20 Cents, or 15 Park, passengers is-St. Paul or Com- Lake Cars at Seve passenger Agent, T HEL After being the inclement BIGGER A STR.

The largest attendance ever obtained on the first day was in 1912, when 100,792 persons, the largest daily attendance ever obtained by any fair in America, passed the turnstiles. Other Health and Accident Companies Follow. You know what it means when somebody tells you, that this, that or the other health and accident as good as the Continental Casualty Company's"—it may be you feel like arguing the matter but— 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 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. The 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. We want your business.

Toronto, Ont.-Purley Douglas Bailey, son of Professor George Bailey of Cazenovia, N. Y., who while suffering from lapse of memory enlisted in the Royal Canadian dragoons here on March 11 last under another name, has recovered his memory. He walked into police headquarters and was so affected by what he heard of the efforts made to find him that he had to be sent to the hospital barracks. Bailey, who is a graduate of Syracuse university, received a shock from lightning and fell forty feet while engaged in tree surgery in Denver. He disappeared while on his way to see a Syracuse physician. Partial recovery of his memory is believed to have resulted from the shock of a fractured jaw received in a baseball game at the barracks several weeks ago. He has no recollection of having enlisted and it is said will be discharged. OUT EMPTY. BACK FULL. Bottle Dropped In Nile Came Back Full of Rye. Virginia, Minn.—A. B. Coates, a well known mining man, got a surprise in the express the other day. It was a bottle of whisky from a Kentucky distillery that he had not ordered. The odd thing about the gift was that the liquor was in a bottle that Mr. Coates emptied with a party of friends while steaming down the river Nile, in Africa, about a year ago and threw into the murky stream. In the bottle he had placed a slip of paper bearing his name and address. Some one found the bottle and forwarded it to the distillery, where it was filled and sent to Mr. Coates with the liquor factory's compliments. The original bottle was presented to Mr. Coates by a local friend when he started on his African trip. RACE SUICIDE LAID TO GIRLS' COLLEGES Pittsburgh. — Separate colleges for women in the United States should be abolished and coeducation substituted, according to Professors Roswell Johnson and Bertha J. Stutzmann of the University of Pittsburgh. This conclusion is based on the charge that women's colleges contribute largely to race suicide among the best elements of the American population. In support of this contention the records of Wellesley college have been analyzed and the results published in the Journal of Heredity, the organ of the American Genetic association of this city. The investigators found that twenty years after graduation fewer than one-half of the girls have married. These have borne only one and one-half children each. Taking all the students into account and allowing enough time to elapse so that it is probable they will bear no more children, the investigators next found that the Wellesley girls contribute less than one child each to the race—that is, they do not even reproduce their own number. And the honor students, who from a eugenic point of view are assumed to be the pick of the lot, do only about a third as well as this. To maintain a stationary population the writers say that every married woman should bear four children. From this point of view they believe that the women's colleges are hastening the extinction of the old American stock. The colleges are blamed for failure to give girls an opportunity to meet young men and for failure to make them desirous or competent to be wives and mothers. It is shown statistically that the marriage rate of "coeds" is considerably better, and it is remarked that at Wellesley the students are forbidden to receive men callers even on Sunday, their only free day. Viewed as to marriageability, the investigators consider a woman most attractive during her college years, and they declare it of vital importance that young men should be allowed to meet her in that period. NO BOOZE TO INDIANS California Law Forbids Sale to Any of Them. Sacramento, Cal.-It is made illegal to sell intoxicating liquors to "squaw men" or any one who lives or associates with Indians and to any person of part Indian blood under a bill by Assemblyman Phelps just signed by Governor Johnson. The bill aims to end an asserted practice of white persons purchasing liquor to carry into the camps and villages of Indians in the remote mountain districts. Invents Evelyn Needle. Pierpont, S.

Santa Monica, Cal.—A peculiar discovery has been made of a fossil bed up the coast at the mouth of Topanga canyon. Some years ago a man living there unearthed some excellent specimens of fossils and supposed Indian bones. Recently a large heap of black dirt was noticed at the edge of the beach, and upon investigation it proved to be the burrow of a family of squirrels. The little diggers had piled up on the surface of the sandy soil perhaps 250 pounds of black sand, in which were pieces of clam shells, fossils and bits of human bone. There were even rocks weighing close to two pounds. The dirt was just as it had been dumped by the animals, and bones and fossils were mixed together with the rocks and sand. The bones have been identified as those of human beings, several specimens showing conclusively that they at one time had constituted the framework of a stalwart Indian brave. Theories have been advanced by men interested in osteology, but no definite conclusions have been reached. They think that the bones are those of Indians, but that they are hundreds of years old. The squirrels must have burrowed many feet, or else the beach in the years past was nearer to the mountains that it is at present. That is natural, for the change is made by the yearly washing of quantities of sand and rocks from the interior down to the mouth of the canyon. The old burrowing ground is now probably many feet below the surface, and only the busy little ground squirrels know the exact location of the rest of the bones. GALLIPOLI GUARDS TURKISH PENINSULA Was Once a Beautiful City, but Has Gone to Decay. Washington—"The city of Gallipol, toward which the allied forces are fighting, guards the neck of the Gallipol peninsula, where the peninsula joins the mainland, near the elbow formed by the Dardanelles strait and the Sea of Marmora," begins a bulletin issued by the National Geographic society. The description of this key position to the best protected of all of the world's water avenues, a position to which the interest of all the nations is now turned with much questioning, continues: "Gallipoli is the last bar that locks the Dardanelles, and secures Marmora sea as a Turkish lake. It is a powerfully fortified city, its defensive works having been begun in modern style in 1878, when the Russians threatened to take possession of Constantinople. The work of strengthening this port has been carried on at irregular intervals since. When the Bulgarians were attacking the lines at Chalaja, the Turks, who felt that they might expect an endeavor to turn their flanks by way of Gallipoli and Marmora sea, worked feverishly upon the port's redoubts. While Gallipoli is not comparable in strength to the greatest fortresses of Europe, it, nevertheless, with its modern batteries and extensive outworks, forms a proper conclusion to the mightly fortified water lane leading down to the Aegean sea. "This 'city beautiful' of the Greeks (Kallipolis) was the first point in Europe to be won and maintained by the Ottoman hordes. It is today anything but a beautiful city. Its streets are narrow, immethodical and dirty, most of its houses are overworn wooden structures, in which decay and untilliness mix to an unpleasant picture. There are few buildings of any architectural interest, though the great leiden domed bazaars appeal to the imagination of the westerner. Some few and uncared for relics of eastern empire and Grecian times have been left to normal decay by the Turks." "Until Turkish occupation and the putting into effect of the suspicious, intolerant and shortsighted policies of exclusion and exclusiveness of the orient Gallipoli seemed destined, as a well placed port upon one of nature's natural avenues of water trade, to become one of the greatest of all the commercial cities of the near east. Through the centuries of Turkish rule it has slept an almost dreamless sleep. Today, with a population of 25,000, with few ambitions and little understanding of its advantages, it has, however, under the Young Turk regime, given some evidence of a reawakening." NOT A NIBBLE: FINED $20. Angler Finds He Dobens' Have to Catch Fish to Be a Fisherman. Perth Amboy, N. J. - It isn't necessary to catch fish to be a fisherman in New Jersey.

Dyer & Bro. are doing some of the finest work in the country in repairing and re-finishing old pianos. The original beauty of tone is fully restored and the pianos come out of their shop with re-finished cases looking like new. Charges are reasonable. You can find out just what the will cost to have them to take home like new by asking them to take an estimate, for which there is no charge. Happy Indeed! If we noticed little pleasures, As we notice little pains, If we quite forgot 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.
