Peoples' Candidate for Railroad and Warehouse Commissioner on the Republican ticket at the primaries June 19th, 1916. Crookston, Minn., May 21, 1916. Editor of THE APPEAL, St. Paul, Minn. Dear Sir: I came to Crookston about twelve years ago, and one of the first men I got acquainted with was Elias Steenerson, who is a candidate for Railroad and Warehouse Commissioner on the Republican ticket at the primaries on June nineteenth. I am a man of many years and long experience, and for these twelve years I have lived in Crookston. I have worked for him off and on, and have dealt with him in a business way. He is an able and bright man; we have become fast friends. He is a kind-hearted and accommodating man, a friend of the colored people, whom I hope will show their appreciation by giving him their votes for the office he aspires, and which I know he is well qualified to fill.

Johnson, of Columbus; Henry Blun, of Savannah; J. W. Lyons, colored, of Augusta, and H. A. Rucker, colored, of Atlanta. Louisiana white and colored Republicans will send contesting delegations to Chicago conventions. The lily-white met and elected twelve delegates. The colored men appeared at the Gruenewald Hotel and demanded admission, but were refused by the hotel management saying that colored men could not participate in conventions in that hostelry. The colored men charge that this was the ruse by which the lily-white barred them. They will send a full delegation. Colored men were eliminated as voting factors in the Texas Republican convention at Fort Worth, Tex., Monday. Contests over seating of delegates, In business, fortunes are not realized Unless your goods are amply advertised. HARRIS & EWING WASHINGTON DC. Secretary of the Republican National Committee and One of the Strongest Men in the Party, Who is Now Located in Chicago, With His Official Staff, Preparing for the Coming Convention. in which the race question was predominant, occupied the convention throughout the day and made a night session necessary for the election of delegates to the national convention. Contests over the six delegates at large from Alabama and one from the ninth congressional district of the same state were filed with Secretary Reynolds, of the Republican national committee, today. This brings the total number of contested delegates up to 54. The national committee will begin hearing the contests June 1st. The stock fight over "restriction of the South" is being staged for the Republican national convention. The Southern States led by Texas, are reported to be preparing for a battle to have their voting strength restored to the basis in vogue in 1912. Some of the western states are making ready for an effort to have the delegate strength of the south pruned down still further. By a rule of the Republican national committee adopted since the convention of 1912, the southern $2.40 PER YEAR. lational Chicago states have lost a total of 91 votes. For district delegates they are allowed one delegate for each congressional district and two delegates for each district that polls at least 7,500 Republican votes. On this basis the convention June 7 will have 985 votes. In 1912 the convention voting strength was 1,079. Thus there has been a decrease of 94 votes, three of which were lost by New York and the rest by the south. Old timers will live over days of James G. Blaine when marching clubs and bands begin to roll into town. More than thirty bands have applied for a chance to march into the Coliseum. Delegates and alternates to the Republican national convention will be entertained as never before. Mayor Thompson's committee furthered their plans at luncheon yesterday. Among the features outstanding are: 1,000 automobiles to convey delegates around town; drills by 1,000 policemen and 500 firemen in Grant Park; fancy riding and cattle roping stunts by the Equestrian Club of the stockyards; fireworks and "the biggest ball ever given in the United States." It is proposed to hold it in the ballrooms of the downtown halls. John C. Eversman, secretary of the Republican national congressional committee, has opened headquarters at the Congress. Headquarters for residential candidates for the Republican National Convention have been opened at the Congress Hotel, according to an announcement by the management, as follows: John W. Weeks of Massachusetts, in the Presidential suite, room 1,102, parlor floor. Theodore E. Burton, Ohio, Elizabeth room, south end of Peacock alley. Elihu Root, the palm garden, parlor floor, and J-22-24-26-28. Charles Warren Fairbanks, Indiana, English room, near the gold ball room, and rooms A-6 and 8, adjoin- Senator Lawrence Y. Sherman's headquarters in the gold ball room and the Illinois state delegation in the green room, will be opened Monday morning. The headquarters of Senator Cummins of Iowa, in the oak room, mezzanine floor, will be opened the first of next week. Arrangements for the republican national convention are all being directed toward preparation for a pro-convention will open on Wednesday, long deadlock that may carry the sessions through the week-end. The June 7, and every step in the preparations was taken with a view to a long grind of roll calls. The lease on the Coliseum holds the building for convention purposes "until the convention adjourns" and the preparedness for a long session is being made so complete that even the seats to be occupied by the delegates are being upholstered to make the tedium of a deadlock more easy to endure.

There is always rejoicing in hell when the South succeeds. The regions of the damned were the scene of great hilarity when the word was passed around that the Southern plan of reuniting the Methodist church north and the Methodist church south had been unanimously approved, "with a display of emotion without a parallel in many general conferences." The plan favors the segregation of the colored membership in "special conferences" and as the vote was according to the press dispatches, unanimous, it seems that not one of the many colored delegates had the manhood to make a protest against the unholy, ungodly plan. Thus seventy-one years after the Methodist Episcopal church split on the slavery question, the hypocritical northern branch welcomes back the church south over the prostrate body of its colored membership. If that is Christianity the writer prefers to be damned. The Methodist church fought slavery with zeal in 1844, the general conferences by resolution ordered a bishop who held slaves to refrain from exercising his episcopal function until he had washed his hands of slavery. The Southerners were so infuriated by this action that the Methodist Episcopal church south was organized in Louisville, Ky., in 1845. JOHN HARRIS HON. LAWRENCE Y. SHERMAN. Illinois' Favorite Son and Candidate to the Republican Nomination President. HON. FRED W. UPHAM. Chairman of the Chicago Committee. HON. FRED W. UPHAM. Chairman of the Chicago Committee of Arrangements for the Republican Convention. In agreeing to draw the color line on its colored membership the Methodist church is following the lead of other so-called Christian bodies in the United States. The alleged Christians are defying God, but He is not mocked. The probable eventual solution of the color line in religion will be the introduction of Mohammedanism into the United States. Islam PRACTICES the doctrine of the "Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man" and welcomes all men to its folds. And of the Methodist bishops, Bishop Hartzell has declared that the Mohammedan negroes in Africa are superior in every way to those who have embraced Christianity and this in the face of the fact that he was laboring zealously to propagate Christianity. WOULD ABOLISH THE HYPHEN. Universal service in military training camps as an aid toward Americanizing the immigrant has been suggested by G. Bernard Anderson, Swedish vice-consul at Chicago. Here is what Mr. Anderson says: "I think immigrants will get more of the American spirit by serving for some weeks side by side with born Americans than by being lectured or instructed. It would bring men together in a common movement. "I do not really favor the holding of meetings in which the difference between American born citizens and naturalized citizens is emphasized. In fact, I feel that we ought to get rid of the hyphen in America at once and for all time. Any meeting in which it is a part of the program calls attention to it. I do not really favor any reference to the term Swedish-American. I think every man who came from Sweden ought to forget the hyphen. It is true that those who come from Sweden have many tender recollections of the old country and also that they are among the quickest to adopt American ways fully and completely. For the latter reason I should like to see the Swedish part of the term dropped. I think it would be dropped quickly, too, were it not for some men who try to make political capital out of it by playing to the so-called 'hyphenated' vote. "Foreigners in America should be quietly made Americans through educational method, by patriotic concerts in the parks and patriotic meetings on occasions of national moment. The group meetings should be discouraged." Mr. Anderson is right. People who come here and become citizens ought to drop the hyphen and become Americans in fact. And if this is true how much more important is it that people who are born in the United States should reject any proposals to set them apart in groups for any reason or purpose whatsoever. The colored people are citizens fortified by ten generations of residence and they should shun any schemes which segregate them in any way. Such plans, no matter how alluring, they may seem are un-American, dangerous and damnable. The $600,000 raised in Chicago for the relief of the Jewish sufferers in the European war was contributed by the Jews themselves. The Christians did not give one per cent of the money. The Christian bankers who signed the appeal did not give any money. William Randolph Hearst, whose newspapers probably caused the lynching of Leo Frank in Georgia, gave $1,000, but Bill will get that back in a single day from his Jewish advertisers. Fifteen thousand Texans hugely enjoyed the spectacle of a human being being roasted at the stake because he was colored. Then one hundred and sixteen members of the state militia refused to present themselves for muster into the Federal service. Brave people these Texans It was Japan, a nation NOT WHITE, that has called the hand of the first president of the United States who has used his high office to discriminate against the colored part of this nation. BROWN Tokio dictates to WHITE Washington. SO mote it be. The question of further reduction of southern representation in the Republican National Convention will be fought out at Chicago. A great wrong has already been done which the national committee should undo. It is the duty of the Republican National Convention in its platform to speak out squarely on the great questions of human rights which were the foundation stones upon which the party was built. Unquestionably where colored men have been prevented from participating in Republican conventions in the south, the lily white delegations should be barred from the Republican National convention. MANHOOD OF RICHARD ALLEN. By R. R. Wright, Editor of the Christian Recorder. It is said that Richard Allen was born a slave. That is untrue. No man is born a slave, and certainly ancestry it must be that his father and mother were African, and through Allen's veins there coursed more royal blood than in the veins of those it is said owned him. But Allen not only was not born a slave; he never became a slave. There is nothing to indicate that he had anything of a slave nature about him. There are today men who are slaves; their wills belong to other men, and they dare not do anything but what others, their masters, tell them. There are today thousands of men whose minds, if they have any, belong to other men, and they dare not think anything but what their masters think for them. Moreover, not all the slaves are owned by men. Whiskey holds thousands in silver, in ivory, in precious thousands and produces its thousands, Abraham Lincoln did not set all the slaves free. He could not. Only God can do so. Richard Allen, we say, was not a slave. No man owned his body; no man owned his soul; no man owned his thoughts. Richard Allen was not a slave. No man could enslave his soul, though one might have title to his body. No man could hold down his mind; no man could subjugate his thought. Richard Allen was one of God's power, noble in thought and great in action. He was the one who fact that while still a slave in name his word was everywhere taken at the very highest value. His word was indeed his bond. On one occasion a preacher wanted permission to preach in his master's house. Richard Allen was sent to convey the message that permission had been given. The preacher asked of Richard Allen if he had a note stating the fact, and he promptly replied no note. Such was the standing of Richard Allen that notes were not needed. Again, when Richard Whatcotan was preaching in the south, he wanted Richard Allen to accompany him, but to accept accommodations which were not in keeping with a minister of the gospel. Richard Allen promptly refused, stating that he would not accompany him on such terms. Practically all the references which we have to Richard Allen reflect not only upon his good judgment, but upon his courage. We will never know the full history of the first few days of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, but the facts which we have to point out that the strong character of Richard Allen daunted courage and strong manhood qualities were those which saved the day for African Methodism in the early days of its organization. When Richard Allen came to Philadelphia the colored people had been segregated for some little time in St. George's Church, and had, so far as we knew, offered but little objection. It was his great spirit, which in less than two years of his residence in this city, put him at the head of the colored population here and which revolted at the idea of being a brother in Christ, and yet being separate from his fellow-Christians, and for this cause he led forth the group which formed the African Methodist Episcopal Church. It was Richard Allen's keen sense of justice which scented the injustice in the Colonization Movement started by so-called friends of the Negro, who wanted to show their friendship by deporting the free Negroes to Africa. Richard Allen fought this action with a great many others who were less outspoken. We might well, at this time, emulate the manly qualities of our great leader. A. M. E. BISHOPS ELECTED. Two bishops were elected at the fifteenth day session of the twenty-fifth quadrennial conference of the A. M. E. church at Philadelphia. Ballong began in the morning and consumed the entire day. Thirty aspirants for Episcopal honors entered the race, which was exciting throughout. The bishops-elect are Rev. W. W. Beckett, of Charleston, S. C., and Rev. I. N. Ross, of Baltimore, Md. Three ballots were necessary to elect the bishops. Rev William A. Fountain, of Atlanta, Ga., was leading at the end of the first ballot, with 169 votes, closely followed by Dr. Ross, with 164; necessary for choice, 306. At the end of the second ballot the results showed that Dr. Fountain had begun to slip and that Dr. Ross, to take the lead, had gained strength. Dr. William D. Johnson, an uninduced candidate, cut in on Fountain on the third ballot and beat the indorsed candidate in a grand free-for-all, but was not able to pull sufficient votes to win. The final count was: Beckett, 377; Ross, 312; Fountain, 173: Johnson, 260. Bishop Ross was born in Hawkins county, East Tennessee, January 22 1856. Secured his training in his home town, and joined the Ohio conference in 1880. Spent 25 years as pastor of some of the largest churches in the connection, and is at the present time pastor of Ebenezer A. M. E. church, Baltimore, Md. Bishop Beckett was born a slave, worked his way through school and mainly graduated from Allen university of South Carolina, who now president Born in South Carolina, he lives there practically all his life, and has devoted his efforts to the uplift of his people in the state, all but four years when he served as missionary secretary. Balloting for Bishop. The result of the first ballot was as follows: A. J. Carey, 98; W. A. Fountain, 164; R. B. Brooks, 35; W. Sampam Brooks, 44; I. N. Ross, 159; G. B. West, 159; A. H. Hill, 59; W.

BISHOPS FOR AFRICA The general conference of the Methodist Episcopal church in session at Saratoga Springs, N. Y. elected Alexander Priestly Camphor of Birmingham, Ala., and Elsen S. Johnson of Sioux City, Iowa, as missionary bishops for Africa. Dr. Camphor, who is colored, received 706 out of 736 votes and will be stationed at Liberia, the place of his former vice consul generalship to the United States. Since 1908, he has been president of the Central Alabama college at Birmingham. Bishop Johnson is an Oxford graduate. Since 1909 he has held a pastorate in Sioux City. During the Spanish war he was chaplain of the Fifty-second regiment. For twelve years he has been assistant secretary of the general conference. He received 732 out of 790 votes. Waco and Americanism. (From the Chicago Evening Post.) If Americanism is more than a mere shibboleth of patriotism; if, as we believe, it has a real meaning that gives the word worth, then Americanism must be shocked and humiliated by the horrible story of the Negro lynching at Waco, Texas. It is no defense to say that the wretched victim in this instance had confessed to a hideous crime and been convicted by a court of justice. Rather is it an aggravation, for here there was no risk that justice would not claim the full penalty. The burning of the man for the delectation of a mob of Waco citizens under such circumstances is a bloodthirsty, brutal horror too black for words to stigmatize. It was the gratifying of a lust for vengeance as guilty as the lust that provoked it. The thing is the more cruel in its wrong to Americanism at this time because the people of Texas have been crying aloud for the repression of mob rule on their own border. They demand intervention to compel order in Mexico, yet give themselves to lawless violence in their own state. In the forefront of the Villa chase the colored soldiers of the Tenth Cavalry and Twenty-fourth Infantry have held conspicuous place; they have greatly the ideal Americanism, the exalted in their minds by the knowledge that American law cannot protect from the mob a member of their own race. As perilous to Americanism as the "moral treason of the politico-racial hyphen" is the treason of those who defy law and humanity and brand their country with the mark of barbarism in the eyes of the world. If the guilty cowards in Waco cannot be apprehended, every citizen in the town should be distranchised. It would be small injustice to those who were not participants, for in a matriarchal society the community tolerates such outrages and protects the perpetrators, it should bear a measure of the responsibility. The votes of men who practice anarchy are not desirable votes. Disfranchisement is the least that may be done to protect Americanism. PULLMAN CO. GIVES MEN STOCK RIGHTS.

Consul at Vladivostok, Emilnent Scholar, Literateur, Writer and Diplomat and Personal Friend of the Great Charles Sumner, Lauds THE APPEAL As one who knew Summer and tried to practice his theories I wish to express my hearty approval of your utterances in THE APPEAL and I can urge them as competent opinions. I congratulate you on the poise, logic and courage of your editorials. WALLER AGAINST "NEGRO" Noted Brooklyn Doctor Says It Causes news. Sir: I cannot do heartily congratulate you on a recent editorial discouraging the use of the word "Negro." There is no greater delight enjoyed by the white people of the United States today than the spreading use of this unfortunate term. Why? They realize that it is the most potential factor at work at the present to bring about both a physical and mental segregation of the people of color. Its use is on the increase only because our speakers and writers, especially Do Bols and Washington feel that its repetition, a nausea, is necessary to retain the good will of the masses. The term "Negro" is not only absurdly inaccurate as applied to millions of colored people, but it is also alarmingly injurious, for the following reasons: a. It has never stood historically or in the present, anywhere in the world, for anything noble or uplifting. Most high-grade Africans repudiate it. b. In Africa and out of Africa it was never applied to the higher types, but to Guineae, Sudanese and Senegambians only. c. Its derivatives, "Negrolsm," "Negrofy," and its compounds, Negro-head Negro-fly, Negro-monkey, are all clearly, in their associations, degrading. d. Its feminine form, "Negress," is justly and correctly used to define your wife and daughter and sweet heart, if you favor the use of the mass culine form. e. It has been the word used by the Southern whites, in two centuries, when formally speaking of cunning about an unworthy or criminal or woman of the race. For when he speaks of the worthy he invariably says "colored." f. It is not differentiated in the mind and thought of the whites from their favorite and generally used (among themselves) terms, "Nigro" and "Nig gar." g. As stated by an eminent Japanese diplomat it has an unquestioned influence in cutting us off from the thought, sympathy and co-operation of the millions of colored Africans, Asiatics and Islanders of the Yonder world. Very truly yours, OWEN M. WALLER, M. D. Hates the Term "Negro." "I hate the term Negro because it is being used in terms of hatred. It is the cause of the segregation of the Negro; it is being used in contempt in public places; it is an excuse for distranchising him; and it is an excuse for lynching him. Only one tenth of one per cent of the colored people of Africa can trace their descent to Africa; there is no more right to call all colored people Negroes than to call all white Turks or Armenians."—Ex-Assistant United States Attorney General Wm. H. Lewis, Boston, Mass. 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 into intimate and sympathetic relations with large numbers of that race whom their Southern friends have never known; and of the two people we should say that the second has the colored people better than the first. They know applications among them that the others do not know, or, knowing, do not enter into and appreciate; do now capabilities by direct contact with 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 col GOD GIVE US MEN. God give us men! A time like this demands Strong minds, great hearts, true faith and ready hands; Men whom the lust of office does not kill; Men whom the spoils of office cannot buy; Men who possess opinions and a will; Men who have honor—men who will not lie; Men who can stand before a demagogue And damn his treacherous flatteries without winking! Tall men, sun crowned, who live above the fog In public duty and in private thinking. (Signed) Richard T. Greener. ored race through the mass and by observation merely could know what individual possibilities are desired in growing numbers of the elect, and would be courageously candid with themselves, they would revise their judgments and possibly their prejudices. At any rate, they ought to credit to those on whom they charge ignorance of the colored race the values that come from knowing 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. OUR NEED OF JUXTAPOSITION (FROM the Boston Guardian) (From the Boston Guardian.) and associate among ourselves, is a saying by Colored Americans that has become almost true. That is a mistake; it is a feeling of cowardice and innate inferiority. It is an utter impossibility for the two race subscribe to a common government, at the same time, each race work out its own salvation. The "theory" has been tried and resulted into a ghastly failure; instead of making for harmony and cordial good feeling between two races, it has increased race hatred and antagonism in leaps and bounds. We have heeded too long the advice from false and treachery, leadership that resistance is wrong, one breeds race hatred and antagonism, that race hatred to us do to get to government and other rights inevitably follow. We have followed this "advice" fully and have been rewarded in terms of residence segregation, street segregation, confiscation and loss of property, inter-marriage—which is all of the blackest pieces of legislation, since that it leaves our women defenseless and at the mercy of white men, separate schools, jimcrow cars, and even legislating to exclude further Negro immigration. These are the evils resulting from non-resistance" and "terrible by ourselves." That with the same degree of efforty and terrible legislation with which our property is taken and confiscated, with this same efforty and legislation will our political and manhood rights be taken from us. That is a fact. Every congress offers legislation degrading and imminent to our well being. Race prejudice, therefore, can only be worn down by attribution; we must send our children, and go get accustomed to mixed institutions and other races where we can mix with other races consequently become accustomed to one another. ABQVE ALL THINGS WE MUST WELCOME AND PRACTICE JUXTAPOSITION. (Gerald Stanley Lee in Mount Tom). I am a human being. I do not propose to be cooped up or shut in in my love and criticism to mere geographical streaks or spots of people on a planet. This planet is small enough as it is, when one considers the height and depth—the starry height and depth—of the human spirit that wavers and glows through us all—Wagner and Shakespeare, Tolstoi and Mollere! Though the cathedrals quarrel together and sing praises with siege-guns to their own little foolish national souls, and rain bombs on each other's naves, I take my stand with great bells ringing in their towers, and souls of their poets overriding the wars, by the prayers and songs of their heroes, artists, inventors, by the mothers and the little children. We are all in the same world. We are all alike. I will not say of any one nation what I will not say of the others; and I will not say of any man what I will not say of myself. Not Worthy of Freedom (From the Richmond Planet.) When a race or an individual submits uncompromisingly to oppression, it is a practical demonstration that the race or the individual is not worthy of freedom.

The Price of Liberty [Ellhu Root in Leslie's.] We have enjoyed liberty and order so long that we have forgotten how they came. Our people assume that they came as the air comes. They have assumed that they will of their nature and by their own force continue forever without effort. Ah, not Liberty has always been born of struggle. It has not come save through sacrifice and the blood of martyrs and the devotion of mankind. And it is not to be preserved except by jealous watchfulness and stern determination always to be free. That eternal vigilance is the price of liberty is so much a truism that it has lost its meaning, but it is an eternal truth. NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COLORED WOMEN' CLUBS WHEREAS, The Detroit Federation of Women's Clubs, an organization composed of white women's clubs of the city of Detroit, Mich., has decided by a vote of its members that it will not affiliate with the national federation (white) except the Detroit Study Club, composed of colored women of the city of Detroit, is permitted to affiliate. THEREFORE, Be It Resolved that the Everywoman Suffrage Club of St. Paul, Mich., Francis president, does hereby heartily commend the action of this magnanimous body of women, engaged as they are in an effort to uplift ALL women without respect to race or color, and to wish them success in this effort.

Chairman, Press Committee, Nat'l. Ass'n. of Colored Women's Clubs, St. Paul, Minn. "ON TO BALTIMORE." From the Department of the Pres., National Association of Colored Women's Clubs. Easily, the greatest forward race movement of the age is the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, and the leading spirit among them, the President, Mrs. Booker T. Washington. Emerging from the gloom which has apparently enveloped her, she has apparently re-consecrated her life to the uplift of the race, and by her helpful messages of encouragement club leaders all over the country is inspiring officers, department heads and members to a greater activity than has ever before been evinced in the work. The next Biennial will be held at Baltimore, Md., in August. This meeting bids fair to be the most interesting in the history of the Association. The meeting in 1912 at Hampton was intensely interesting and inspiring; that at Wilberforce in 1914 was wonderful and far reaching in its effects—a wonderful group of women, showing a remarkable insight in the philosophy of life and demonstrating a constructive ability which portends wonderful results in the next "One to Baltimore" is the slogan of every organization of women, and where the men will likewise be found.
