CLINEDINST Republican CLIHEDINST Republican Standard Bearers FOR PRESIDENT OF NEW YORK We renew our allegiance to the Philippine policy inaugurated by McKinley, approved by congress and consistently carried out by the Philippines, this short time it has enormously improved the material and social conditions of the islands, given the Philippine people a constantly increasing participation in their affairs, which will bring still greater benefits in the future. We condemn the Democratic administration for its attempt to abandon the Philippines which was prevented only by the president's opposition of Republican members of congress, aided by a few patriotic Democrats. Treaty With Russia. We reiterate our unqualified approval of the action taken in December, 1911, by the president and congress to secure with Russia, as with other countries, a treaty with the United States of America to expatriation and prevent all discrimination of whatever kind between American citizens, whether native born or alien, and regardless of race, religion or pre-occupation. We renew the pledge to observe the principles of the maintain the right of asylum, which is neither to be surrendered nor restricted, and we unite in the cherished hope that the war which is now desolating the world will be ended, and complete and lasting restoration of brotherhood to the nations of the earth and the assurance of full equal rights, civil and religious, to all men in every land. Protection of the Country. In order to maintain our peace and certain the security of our people within the country, we have not only adequate, but thorough and complete national defense, ready for any emergency. We must have a sufficient and effective regular army and a provision of adequate, already drilled and disciplined, we can be at once to the colors when danger comes. We must have a navy so strong and so well proportioned and equipped, so thoroughly ready and prepared that no enemy can land in force on either our western or our eastern coasts. To secure these results we must have a coherent and continuous policy of national defense, which can and should be carried out by the Democratic party has utterly failed in development, but which we promise to give to the country. The Tariff. The Republican party stands now, as always, in the fullest sense for the policy of tariff protection to American industries and American labor and does not regard an anti-dumping provision as an adequate substitute. Such protection should be reasonable and should be used to protect adequately American industries. American labor and be as adjusted to prevent undue exactions by monopolies or trust. It should, moreover, give special protection to the industrial independence of the United States, as in the case of dystuffs. Through wise tariff and industrial legislation our industries can be so organized that become not only a commercial bulbwark, but a powerful aid to national defense. The Underwood tariff act is a complete nature in every respect. Under its administration imports have enormously increased in spite of the fact that the intercourse with foreign countries has been weakened, and the revenues, of which we stand in sure dire need, have been greatly reduced. Under the normal conditions which prevailed prior to the war, it was clearly demonstrated that this act deprived the American economy of its greatest potential earner of that protection which entitled them to meet their foreign competitors, and, but for the adventious conditions created by the war, would long since have paralyzed all forms of American industry and carried American labor of its just reward. It has not in the least reduced the cost of living, which has constantly advanced from the date of its enactment. The welfare of our people demands its repeal and abolition of the right to peace as well as in war, will produce ample revenue and give reasonable protection to all forms of American production in mine, forest, field and factory.

Chicago, June 10.—Following is the platform adopted by the Republican national convention. In 1861 the Republican party stood for the Union. As it stood for the union of states it now stands for a united people, -rue to American ideals, loyal to American traditions, knowing no allegiance except to the constitution, to the govern- -to the flag of the United States. We believe in American policies at home and abroad. Protection of American Rights. We declare that we believe in and will enforce the protection of every American citizen in all the rights secured to him by the constitution, treaties and the law of the sea. These rights, which, in violation of the specific promise of their party, made at Baltimore in 1912, the Democratic president and the Democratic congress have to defend, we will uninchinchin maintain. We desire peace, the peace of justice and right, and believe in maintaining a straight and honest neutrality between us and the oppressed rope. We must perform all our duties and insist upon all our rights as neutrales, without fear and without favor. We believe that peace and neutrality as well as the right cannot be preserved by shifty expedients, by phrasemaking, by performances in language or by attitudes ever changing in an effort to secure groups of voters. We believe that our influence abroad and humiliated us in our own eyes. The Republican party believes that a firm, consistent and courageous foreign policy, always maintained with American tradition is the best it is the only true way to preserve our peace and restore us to our rightful place among the nations. We believe in the pa- tition of international disputes and favor the establishment of a world court for that purpose. Mexico. We deeply sympathize with the 15,000,000 people of Mexico who, for three years, have seen their country devastated, their homes destroyed, their fellow citizens arrested, their women besieged, their armed bands of desperadoes led by self-seeking, conscienceless agitators. We express our horror and indignation at the outrages which have been and are ongoing, and the crimes which have upon American men and women we are in Mexico by invitation of the laws and of the government of that country and whose rights to security of person and property are guaranteed by solemn oaths, and whose defensible methods of interference employed by this administration in the internal affairs of Mexico and refer with shame to its failure to discharge the duty of this country as next friend to Mexico, its duty to other powers who have relied on us, and its failure to conditions through recognition of such conditions, first, by failure to act promptly and firmly, and, second, by lending its influence to the concession of such conditions through recognition of one of the factions responsible for these outrages. We pledge our aid in restoring order and maintaining peace in Mexico. We promise to our citizens on and near our border to remain vigilant and to ensure that may be found, adequate and absolute protection in their lives, liberty and property. Monroe Doctrine. We reaffirm our approval of the Monroe doctrine and declare maintenance of the rights of the country to its present and future peace and safety and to the achievement of its manifest Latin America. We favor the continuation of Republican policies, which will result in drawing more and more of the commercial, financial and social relations between the countries and the countries of Latin America. Treaty With Russia. Protection of the Country. Defective Page Philippines. Tariff. THE APPEAL ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN.. SATURDAY. JULY 1. 1916 congress in all matters relating to the tariff. Business The Republican party has long believed in the rigid supervision and strict regulations of the business corporations of the country. It has put its creed into its deeds, and all really effective laws regulating the railroads and the great industrial corporations are the work of the Republican congresses and presidents. For this reason, the Republican vision the Democrats, in a stumbling and piecemeal way, are undertaking to involve the government in business which should left within the sphere of private enterprise and indirect corporations with its own citizens, a policy which is sure to result in waste, great expense to the taxpayer and in an inferior product. The Republican party firmly believes that the regulation of business should be individually punished. But prosecution is very different from persecution, and business success, no matter how honestly attained, is not the same as the Democratic party as in itself a crime. State and beliefs choke enterprise and stifle prosperity. The Republican party believes in encouraging American business as it believes in and will seek to advance all American interests. Rural Credits We favor an effective system of rural credits as opposed to the ineffective law that governs the present Democratic administration. Rural Free Delivery. We favor the extension of the rural free delivery system and condemn the Democratic administration for curtailing and crippling it. Merchant Marine. In view of the policies adopted by all the maritime nationalities and shipping interests, and in order to enable us to compete with them for the ocean carrying trade, we favor the payment to ships engaged in the foreign trade of librarians and services actually rendered in carrying the materials and such further legislation as will build up an adequate American merchant marine and give us ships which may be requisitioned and give government in time of national emergency. We are utterly opposed to the government ownership of vessels as proposed by the Democratic party because government has become effectively preventing the development of the merchant marine by private capital, will be entirely unable to provide for the vast volume of American freights and will leave us more helpless than ever in the hard grip of foreign syndicates. Transportation. Interstate and intratourate transportation has become an essential tempt to apply two and often several sets of laws to its regulation has produced conflicts of authority, embarrassment in operation and inconvenience and expense to the country has become essentially national. We therefore, favor such action by legislation or, if necessary, through an amendment of the Constitution of the United States as will result in placing it under exclusive federal control. Economy and a National Budget OF INDIANA Rural Credita Merchant Marine. Transportation. Conservation. Civil Service Reform forced and extended wherever practicable. The Democratic party has created since the 4, 1913, 30,000 offices outside of the city limits in all cost of $44,000,000 to the taxpayers of the country. Territorial Matters. Reaffirming the attitude long maintained by the Republican party, we hold that officials appointed to administer the government of any territory should be bona fide residents of the territory in which their duties are to pay for the cost of labor. Labor Laws. We pledge the Republican party to the faithful enforcement of all federal laws passed for the protection of labor. We favor vocational education, the enactment and rigid enforcement of a federal child labor law, the generous and comprehensive workmanship law, within the commerce power of congress, and an accident compensation law covering all government employees. We support the implementation derer the direction of the department of labor of complete data related to industrial hazards for the information of congress, to the end that such legislation may be adopted to ensure the safety, conservation and protection labor from the dangers incident to industry and transportation. Suffrage. The Republican party, reaffirming its faith government of the people, by the people, for the protection of justice to one-half the adult people of this country, favors the extension of the suffrage to women, but recognizes the state to settle this question for itself. Such are our principles, such are our purposes and policies. We close as we began. The times are dangerous and the times are hard. With peril we appeal to all Americans with whom we mobilized or native born, to prove to the world that we are Americans in thought and in deed, with one loyalty, one hope, one aspiration. We call on all Americans to be the guardians of the Americas, to the great traditions of the Americas and to above all things, to keep the faith. JAIL BETTER THAN HOME. Kruse Paid to Stay There Rather Than With His Relatives. Chicago. — August Kruse, who for five years has been a voluntary inmate of the Du Page county jail at Wheaton, Ill., rather than live with relatives, who doubted his sanity, told the sheeriff he was going west to live on a farm. Kruse paid the county $1 a day for the privilege of living in the jail. In 1906 a petition to have him declared insane was heard in the county court. He was found to be sane, but would not return to his home, and after five years' absence returned to Wheaton and arranged for quarters in the same jail to which he had been taken years before. "I want to get back to the farm," said Kruse. "I sit here and think of what I used to do, and I'm going to begin over again. I'm going away off, though, not back to the old farm." FALL CORRECTS HIS VISION Broker Hits His Head on Sidewalk and Doesn't Need Glasses. Pittsfield, Mass—Henry Travers, Jr., insurance and real estate brpyk, fell on an icy sidewalk recently, striking on his head and neck. For several years Mr. Travers had worn glasses, but upon returning to his office after the fall he discovered he could see better and could read without them. Mr. Travers does not urge this method of treatment for falling eyesight. Territorial Matters. Labor Laws. Suffrage. The Moton Incident AN OPEN LETTER TO ROBERT RUSSA MOTON. (From the Crisis.) The Crisis hastens to extend to you on your accession to the headship of Tuskegee the assurances of its good will and personal respect. The Crisis does this all the more willingly because it has to some extent been the mouthpiece of many who have had occasion repeatedly to criticize the words and deeds of your predecessor. It would be a matter of hope and rejoicing if your assumption of new duties could be the beginning of a new era of union and understanding among the various groups of American Negroes. But understanding and co-operation must be based on frank conference and clear knowledge. As a preliminary step to such understanding the Crisis ventures in this open letter to express to you publicly its hopes and fears. It hopes that the aims of the colored American have become sufficiently clear to admit of no misunderstanding or misstatement. We desire to become American citizens with every right that pertains to citizenship: 1. The right to vote and hold office. 2. Equality before the law. 3. Equal civil rights in all public places, and in all public services. 4. A proportional share in the benefits of public expenditures. 5. Education according to ability and aptitude. With these rights we correlate our duties as men and citizens—the abolition of poverty, the emancipation of women, the suppression of crime and the overcoming of ignorance. The Crisis assumes—indeed, it knows—that in these matters you believe substantially, as we do, and that the real differences between us, if there be such, lie in matters of present emphasis and present procedure. We assume, without demur, that following the late Booker T. Washington you will place especial emphasis on vocational training, property getting and conciliation of the white South. These are necessary and against these the Crisis speaks policies, but they have their pitfalls, this warning word: 1. Only the higher and broader training will give any race its ultimate leadership. This Mr. Washington came to realize, and this you must not forget. 2. Individual accumulation of wealth must gradually and inevitably give way to methods of social accumulation and equitable distribution. 3. Finally Conciliation is wise and proper. But you far shall it go? It is here that the Crisis confesses to its deepest solicitude in your case. It cannot but remember its unanswered query of you in the case of the St. Louis luncheon. It has before it the heading of a Rochester paper which gives as your opinion that "from North one gets distorted view of South." And finally, there is the recent case of the Pullman car and your family. The Crisis will assume in all of the cases that you have not been correctly reported; that you did not voluntarily give up lunching at the St. Louis City Club; that you did not assert that the South was maligned usually at the North, and above all, that you did not say that you had no sympathy with the attempt of members of your family to ride on Pullman cars in the South. The Crisis knows only too well the way in which Southern newspapers put such sentiments into the mouths of colored leaders; but the point upon which such sentiments this; that such atrocious statements cannot be always passed in silence. We do not wish the principal of Tuskegee to spend his valuable time in answering calumnies and misstatements, but we do believe that when so monstrous a statement is made, as in the case of the Pullman car, something besides silence and acquiescence is called for. We hope to see, therefore, at Tuskegee in the future a carrying out and development of the best of its past work and a continued attempt to come to terms of understanding with the best of the white South; but to these policies we hope to see added a policy of making it clearly understood to the people of this country that Tuskegee should not be involved in the right to vote; that it does not believe in Jim-Crow cars; that it recognizes the work of the Negro colleges, and that it agrees with Charles Sumner that "Equality of rights is the first of rights." This, then, is the forward step at Tuskegee which the Crisis and its friends look for under your administration, and it desires to express its earnest hope and indeed its faith that you not disappoint your fellow workers. Servility Brings Contempt. (From the Union, Cincinnati, G.) If the above is true (referring to the "Moton Incident") then Major Moton will rise to fame and fortune as did his illustrious predecessor. "Crooking the pregnant hinges of the knee that thrift may follow fawning" brings wealth and great masses with their alight, "the knee brings a vast amount of contempt. There is so much bowing, cringing and nauseate servility shown by some of our people, is it any wonder that even the 25th class of white people feel that they are the Lord's appointed, and therefore vastly superior to all colored people? Unfit to Teach Our Children. (From the Martinsburg Pioneer Press) This paper has no retraction to make in the Major Moton affair. It thought then and knows now that no improvement was made by his pro- motion. Booker T. Washington's palliation gave us double work for manhood rights not only in the South but the North as well for untold years to come, and his successor's ambition is to be patted on the back and be called "a good darker"—to the lower regions with the "good darker" class, any man who goes back on his wife who abused for contending for her rights paid for, to ride in a Pullman car, is unfit to lead and teach our children. Unless He Can Talk Like a Man. (From the Richmond Planet.) (From the Richmond Planet.) Principal R. R. Moton has gone to work. It would be well for him to keep at it and to have nothing further to say about that Pullman sleeping car incident. An Apologist The Bee, at the time Major Moton was named by a committee of apologists, said then that he was a "Hand-Picked Leader." The condition of the colored race in this country is due to these "hand-picked leaders." Now, in the first place, Major Moton represents a class of white men and not the Colored Americans. He is not only a "hand-picked leader" but an apologist who fails to resent an insult. Would any American white man of any nationality attempt to make excuses for an insult to his wife by a common carrier. Has this not been the policy of all hand picked leaders? This hand picked representative apologizes for the insult offered his wife while enlisting her home. Will Major Moton, the newly installed principal of Tuskegee, enter a suit for damages? No, he would offer an apology to those who had insulted his good wife. The Bee has always been an admired Major Moton, and thought that he possessed manly traits, that would commend him to the thoughtful consideration of the American black race, but The Bee must confess that he is a hand-picked leader and an apologist. Must Contend for Rights We do not just- understand the position of Principal Robert R. Motion in the matter ..... There is no other course to pursue than to continue to contend for rights denied even though- we are rebuked and disappointed in so doing. No question is ever settled until it is settled right. We must continue to appeal to the conscience of the American people. We must continue to attempt to enforce our rights through the courts of the land, even though some of them may be prejudiced against us. THE HAND PICKED LEADER. The Elevator would like to know if the time has not arrived when colored men should select their own leaders instead of leaving the delicate task of the hands of designing men of the opposite race, and if any colored man can serve two masters at one and the same time, and if as a general proposition, the "hand picked leader" is not always against his race? Stand Squarely for Justice. (From the Omaha Monitor ) Major Moton, please don't assume the attitude of an apologist. We are hoping for big things from you. We know and appreciate the difficulties of your position. Stand squarely and firmly for justice to your race. No apology is due from either Mrs. Moton or yourself, because as a cultured and refined woman she preferred to ride in a Pullman rather than in a "Jim Crow" car in which "equal accommodations" are not provided, and in which the conditions are seldom sanitary or pleasant. No Very High Opinion. We entertain no very high opinion of President Moton's explanation to the Associated Press Correspondent at Montgomery, anent that sleeping car episode. We trust he was incorrectly quoted. Major Moton's First Duty. (From the New York News.) The future of the great work at Tuskegee, may call for an offending silence, but it will never be helped long or to any great degree by an abject surrender of the race's rights. Major Moton's first duty to himself and his race is to set himself now and at all times four square with the progress of his people. RESENTMENT NEEDED. After having been granted Pullman tickets from Montgomery, Alabama to Savannah, Georgia, the wife of Major Robert R. Moton, recently installed as principal of Tuskegee Institute, and Blanton Moton, his brother, were ejected from the car by "two policemen and some of the best citizens" of Troy, Ala. Although they had paid Pullman fares and were interstate passengers, both were forced to ride in the jimcrow car. The wires tell us that when Major Moton was informed of the matter, he condoned it saying that he "respected the traditions of the South and had no resentment against the people who committed the outrage." THE APPEAL has no hesitancy in $2.40 PER YEAR: saying that if Major Moton is quoted correctly and feels that way that he is unfit for the presidency of an institution which is designed to fit colored youth for life. Manhood should be the basis of all training. What more is needed to make a man resentful than an attack on his wife? A being who would not defend his wife against most efoe is unworthy to be called a man. Even among the lower animals the males willingly give up their lives in defense of their mates. The present mission state of the colored people in the United States is largely due to the servile tactics of the so-called leaders who have not only too cowardly to defend themselves when attacked but have actually advised submission to great wagers. Major Moton is in no sense a leader of the colored people, but the fact that he is at the head of Tuskegee gives him influence and not doing the colored people a great wrong. When he fails to resent any wrongs, he picked for his job by white people who are not looking for the real welfare of the country but for their own selfish ends. If the trustees of Tuskegee really serve the colored people they should be the resignation of Principal Moton and put in a man who will resent attacks on the rights of the race. Manhood is the basis of all real progress. Has Shown His Hand (Anda Gazette). Four days after the inauguration as principal of Tuskegee Institute at Normal and Industrial Institute the forces Major Moton to "show his hand" and there is not even a "deuce" over the race. One thing sure and that a racial standpoint he is certainly no improvement upon Booker T. Washington. THE MOTON INCIDENT. (REV.) WM. A. BOYD, Rochester, N. Y. THE ARPEAL? J. Q.

COLORED SOLDIERS FALL FIRST COLORED SOLDIERS FALL FIRST. A squadron of the Tenth Cavalry, colored American soldiers, was ambushed by Caranzista troops at Carrizal, Mexico. In the face of a withering machine gun fire the American troops dismounted, deployed and charged the Mexicans, who were shielded by a row of adobe houses. Notwithstanding the great advantage the Mexicans held both in position and numbers, General Gomez, the Mexican commander, was killed during the first few minutes of fighting, also a number of Mexican soldiers. On the American side, eleven troopers and their commander were killed. So the first blood in the first real battle of the Mexican war was that of colored Americans, who fought soldiers of another colored race in defense of the American flag, which does not always protect them from injustice. In Mexico, American colored men are welcomed and treated as brothers, while in the United States, the land of their birth, they are to a great extent treated as they were lepers, subjected to insults, denied their civil rights. Nevertheless from the time that Crispus Attucks, the mulatto, gave his blood, the first shed in the Revolutionary war to the present time, colored men have never failed to lay down their lives in defense of their native land.

The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. NO DENIAL. The Richmond Planet has an article headed "Major Moton's Denial" and quotes from the New York Age, that paper's statement of the case. As a matter of fact there has been no denial by Major Moton of the charges as stated in the public press. THE APPEAL agrees with the Cleveland Gazette, that the Age evidently means well, but that Major Moton is fully able to speak for himself. THE APPEAL believes that if he is not guilty as charged that Major Moton ought to issue a signed statement repudiating the reports sent out by the Associated Press and announcing that he will be a man no matter if Tuskegee is swept from the face of the earth. OPPOSES HYPHEN REGIMENT Mayor Mitchell of New York objects to the organization of a regiment of troops composed exclusively of citizens of German birth. In his letter, which he has given out he said he was of the opinion that it would be hurtful to draw racial lines in American military matters. "I would depreciate the formation of a regiment composed wholly of men of any one nationality," he added, whether they be German, French, Italian or Russian, as this might tend to draw the very racial lines which I believe ought to be avoided. I suggest that you urge your men to join the regular organizations of the national guard or such other organizations as may be recruited by the federal authorities." The mayor ought to have added that it is a mistake to form a separate regiment of colored men. Colored men in New York made a fight to have themselves segregated. It was a great mistake and adds another to the list of causes which will prevent the colored people from being treated as American citizens. IT NEVER PAYS TO ASK FOR SEGREGATION OF ANY KIND. HAS HEART ENLARGEMENT The Pullman Palace Car Company is getting reckless! It has announced a raise in the wages of its employees. The raise granted is 5 per cent, but there will be no raise for porters who have been less than 15 years in service. This means that if a porter continues working for the Pullman Co. and does not get fired around the close of his 14th year of service he will receive an increase in wages of $1.87½ a month. The present top wages of the Pullman porters is $27.50 a month. The benevolent Pullman Company also announces that in consideration of its 5 per cent increase in wages to employees 15 years in service that the old system of yearly bonuses to men 15 years in service are to be given 2½ per cent increase every five years. HARRIET BEECHER STOWE Harriet Beecher Stowe, author of "Uncle Tom's Cabin," was born in Litchfield, Conn., June 14, 1811, one hundred and five years ago, and died in Hartford, July 11, 1896. Mrs. Stowe was the wife of Prof. Calvin Stowe and the daughter of Lyman Beecher. J. F. Rhodes in his "History of the United States From 1850" says of "Uncle Tom's Cabin": "The author felt deeply that the fugitive slave law was unjust and that there was cruelty in its execution; this THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge of stand alone; the wo intolerant judgment the countenances of averted, and the hea cold, but the sense be sweeter than the world, the countenan the hearts of friend 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 Sumner. once when we should awards out of men. has climbed on pro- been raised against the and lust, the in- d serve the law, and our least disputes. we must speak and right the wrongs of er Wilcox. inspired her to pour out her soul in a protest against slavery. She thought that if she could only make the world see slavery as she saw it her object would be accomplished; she would then have induced people to think right on the subject." When Mrs. Stowe prepared the plan of the work that was to become famous and profitable beyond her fondest dream, she was approaching her fortiest year. Her husband's small income hardly sufficed to meet the frugal needs of a large household. She was worn out with the care of many young children and the burden of the literary work she was doing to eke out the salary of Prof. Stowe. There was nothing but the prospect of a bitter struggle for a bare living when the inspiration of a lifetime came to her and she wrote her "Uncle Tom's Cabin." When the story was first published serially in the National Era, an anti-slavery paper in Washington, it obtained little notice. When, however, it was put on the market in book form it had the most extraordinary success. Longfellow thought that while it was one of the greatest triumphs of literary history, it contained an even higher moral triumph. In England some of the most enthusiastic some of the men were passed upon the author and her book. Lord Palmerston, Lord Cockburn, Charles Kingsley, Lord Carlisle and Macaulay expressed their warmest appreciation of this strange novel and of the extraordinary influences which it was having in so many countries. More than 1,000,000 copies of the book were sold within nine months after its publication. Thirty different editions were published in London within six months of the appearance of the book in America. It would be a long list which should contain the number of languages in which the work was published subsequently and Mrs. Stowe's name became a familiar one in all parts of the civilized world. "Uncle Tom's Cabin" was one of the most remarkable books ever written and it probably did more to cause the war of the rebellion than any other one influence. Abraham Lincoln, after he became president, expressed a desire to meet Mrs. Stowe and when she came to the White House he received her cordially. He looked at her intently for some time and then said, "So you are the little woman who caused the civil war!" WOULD ABOLISH THE HYPHEN. Universal service in military training camps as an aid toward Americansizing 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 com- who in the consci- f his duty dares to world, with ignorant, at, may condemn, relatives may be arts of friends grow of duty done shall the applause of the ences of relatives or pletely. 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, too, 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. PROPOSES "WHITE" PARTY Senator Newlands of Nevada is an ardent suffrage supporter. He called at the woman's party headquarters and suggested a way of winning the South to the cause. He said: "It strikes me that it would be a good scheme for the suffragists to come out for the nation-wide enfranchisement of white persons only," he said. "This would win over the South, which now feels that the Negro should not have been enfranchised and is opposed to its women getting into politics. On the west coast there is a strong feeling against the yellow races ever having the vote. Hence with a straight-cut declaration for a party of white men and women the suffragists could draw together all elements." COLOR LINE WIPED OUT A strange thing happened in El Paso, Texas, Thursday when the colored heroes who had been imprisoned in Chihuahua, released by Carranza, were returned to the border. Just read the press report: "There was a paradoxical side of the reception arrangements which apparently was never thought of. All of the imprisoned troopers are Negroes and probably never before in history was such homage considered for the colored race in the state of Texas, but they were not colored men in the minds of these patriotic southerners. They were Uncle Sam's soldiers. They had taken up arms against the Mexicans and that in itself is sufficient to make any one beloved in this southwest country. Their color was never considered. They were heroes, fighters, cavalrymen and that was enough." The acquittal of the officers of the Riggs National Bank ought to be pleasing to all decent men. And the jury deliberated only nine minutes. This is a deserved rebuke to Comptroller of the Currency Williams, who endeavored to have the officers convicted of perjury. Then four days later the District Supreme Court held that Comptroller Williams may not retain the $5,000 he imposed upon the Riggs National Bank. Williams, when assistant secretary of the treasury, issued the famous order segregating the colored employees in one of the water closets of Treasury Department at Washington. John Skelton Williams, comptroller of the currency, he of separate water closet fame, left Washington the other day and allowed his deputy Thomas P. Kane, to sign, as acting comptroller, the new charter for 30 years, which he was compelled to grant to the Riggs National Bank of Washington, D. C. Williams haled the officers of the bank, into court some time since, but the jury in nine minutes declared the defendants not guilty and left John Skelton with the bag to carry. John hails from Richmond on the "Jeems." 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. It is said that on account of the high price of all building material all building operations connected with the large fund raised for the segregated Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. will be dispensed with for the present. It would be better if the buildings were dispensed with entirely. No good can come from "jim-crow" public or quasi-public institutions of any kind. After telling the story of the recent "jimcrow" reunion of the M. E. church North and the M. E. Church South, the Cleveland Advocate asks, "Whither is the M. E. Church North bound?" In reply THE APPEAL begs to suggest that it is HEADED FOR HELL. There will be no cut in the South's representation in the Republican national convention of 1920. The basis of representation will be the same as it is in the convention of 1916. 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 Allen was not. If we knew his ancestry it might be that his father and mother were African royalty; that 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. Furthermore, not all the slaves are owned by men. Whiskey holds thousands in slavery, passion holds its thousands and prejudice 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 was one of God's princes, noble in thought and great in action. This is illustrated by 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 that he needed no note. Such was the standing of Richard Allen that notes were not needed. Again, when Richard Whatcoat 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 point to the fact that the strong character of Richard Allen, his undaunted 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 many qualities of our great leader. R. R. W. 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 done excellent service; they have done excellent service; How greatly the ideal of Americanism must be altered 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 world, where the community tolerates sexual violence 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. What Waco Did. (From the San Francisco Chronicle). Waco did more than burn a colored man; she burned her own courage, decency and character, outraged the imaginations of her young people and smeared a foul disgrace across her life. J. APPEAL'S EDITORIALS HAVE "POISE, LOGIC AND COURAGE." Hon. Richard T. GREENE, Late U. S. Consul at Vladivostok, Emilent Scholar, Literateur, Writer and Diplomat and Personal Friend of the Great Charles Sumner, lands THE APPEAL. As one who knew Sumner 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 editors. WALLER AGAINST "NEGRO" Noted Brooklyn Doctor Says It Causes Mental and Physical Segregation. (From Amsterdam News.) Editor Amsterdam News: Sir: I cannot too 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贬uate term. Why? They realize the most potent factor at work at the present moment 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, ad nauseam, is necessary to retain the good will of the masses. The reason is not only absurdly inscribe as appositely millions of colored people, but it is also 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 Guinea, Sudanese and Senegambians only. c. Its derivatives, "Negroism," "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 sweetheart, if you favor the use of the masculine term. e. It has been the word used by the Southern whites for two centuries, when formally speaking or writing about an unworthy or criminal man a member 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 "Nigerer." 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 Militias 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 in America can trace their origin to Africa, and there is no more right than all colored people Negroes than to a civilized people Turks or Armenians."—Ex-Assistant United States Attorney 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 come into intimate and sympathetic relation with large numbers of that race who live in Southern friends have never known; and two sets of people we should say that the second knew the colored people better than the first. They know aspirations among them that the others do not know, or, knowing, do not enter into and appreciate; they know capabilities by direct contact with the rest of the race which others are oblivious of; they know qualities which only respect and they can bring out; they know possibilities among others by their very acquaintance and 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. —J. G. Holland. (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 soften 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 how many of that race are the equal of any members of the dominant race in the highest abilities and in the clearest alms. No estimate is worth much which does not take people at their best. OUR NEED. OF JUXTAPOSITION That we much rather be, and associate among ourselves, is a saying by Colored Americans that in almost true. That is a mistake, a feeling of avowed cowardice and innate inferiority. It is an utter possibility for the two races to 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 ghastly failure; instead of making for harm and cordial good feeling between two races, it has increased threat and antagonism in leaps and bounds, he have needed too long the advice from false and treachous leadership that resistance is wrong, that it only breeds that red and antagonism; that the force for us to do is to get property and other rights will inevitably follow. We have followed this "advice" faithfully and have been rewarded in terms of residence segregation, street segregation, confiscation and loss of property, anti-internarriage—which is all of the blackest pieces of legislation, since that it leaves our women defenses and at the mercy of white brutes, and the schools, jimcrow cars, and other institutions to exclude further Negro immigration. These are the evils resulting from resistance" and "rather be 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 intimidating our well being. Race prejudice, therefore, can only be worn down by attitude. We must send our children, and go unarmed, to mixed institutions and other places where we can mix with the other races consequently become accustomed to one another. ABOVE 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 on the other's bells ringing in their towers, by the bells of their poets overriding the years, 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. (from the Richmond Planet.) When a race or an individual submits uncomplainingly to oppression it is a practical demonstration that the race or the individual is not worthy of freedom. Of One Blood.

One entering the grounds has the privilege of writing upon the back of his admission ticket the name of the organization to which the money shall be given. Each ticket is counted as so many votes at the rate of ten votes for each dollar or of its fraction. In the amount of $2.00, $2.50, and $3.00, each including admission and reserved seat. Go your self and get every one you can induce to write AFRO-AMERICAN ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION or "4A" on the back of his ticket, and we may win. The waiters at the hotels and cafes can do much by asking the patrons to vote for the "4A." IN RECOGNITION OF THE 1916 GRADUATES. Since the announcement by the pastor, Rev. B. N. Murrell, that the service Sunday night, July 2, will be in recognition of the members of the 1916 graduating classes from the high schools, colleges and university, keen interest on the part of St. Paul citizens has centered itself upon that event. Already it is being talked of in the homes of the first high school graduates, many of whom are already planned to be present. One feature of the service that will be entirely unique is the introduction of former graduates to the audience. Since the sacrifice on the part of parents and children allike is so very great, and since to graduate from the city high schools is such a marked achievement in the lives of the young students, it is important that this service will add new impetus to the efforts of the struggling students. It is hoped, therefore, that the parents will bring to this service their boys and girls who are now undergraduates in the city schools to this service. College men and women are especially invited. Two minute talks will be made by representatives of former graduating classes. The addresses of the evening will be made by Secretary of State, Hon. Julius A. Schmall, the Mayor's private sey," Larry Hog," and S. Hall, chairman of the Trustee board of William T. Francis, Esq. will preside. The following are among the 1916 graduating classes: Central High School, Virginia James Henley, Luke Paul Vassar and George Manning; Mechanic Arts High School, James Lloyd Stevens; St. Thomas College, Robert Earl Webber; University of Minnesota, Miles A. Cannon. These young men will be seated on the floor. The college asked to be assembled at 7:30 and for thirty minutes listen to the pipe organ recital by Mr. Robert H. Strong. PROGRESS B POOL HALL J.
