Delivered as second class matter June 6, 1858 at the postoffice at St. Pauli garden end of Cypress Street. THE APPEAL prints in this issue the special report of an agent of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, who was sent to Texas to investigate the recent man-burning at Waco, the center of Texas Christian Civilization. The report says: "This is the account of one lynching. It is horrible, but it is matched in horror by scores of others in the last thirty years, and in its illegal, law-defying, race-hating aspect, it is matched by 2,842 other lynchings which have taken place between January 1, 1885, and June 1, 1916." "What are we going to do about this record? The civilization of America is at stake. The sincerity of Christianity is challenged. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People proposes immediately to raise a fund of at least $10,000 to start a crusade against this modern barbarism. Already $2,000 is promised, conditional on our raising the whole amount." THE APPEAL has made a contribution to the fund and hopes that every American who believes in the supremacy of the law and the perpetuity of democracy to give to the cause according to his means. THOMPSON NOT JIMCROWIST. The statement of the Chicago correspondent of the Boston Guardian that Mayor Thompson of Chicago jim-crowed the colored delegation to the Republican National convention is without foundation in fact. Mayor Thompson appointed Rev. A. J. Carey, the well known and 'olequent minister of the Institutional Church, a-member of the general committee of arrangements for the convention and he was present at nearly all of the meetings to see that there was a square deal all around. The tickets for the automobile ride through the city were issued to the colored delegates just the same as to those of other nationalities and all delegates were instructed to take autos at the Congress Hotel. Shortly before the hour for the ride, some self-important colored men who wished to get a little glory for themselves and boom their club asked that the autos be sent to a club "out South" for the colored delegates. Rev. Carey, the colored representative on the committee, objected to this and told the people so, but as a number seemed to desire it and rather than mar the proceedings by a row, he reluctantly consented to the arrangement. So the majority of the delegates were in this manner separated from the main body of the visitors. It was due entirely to the jim-crow ideas of some of the colored people themselves and was granted after Rev. Carey had protested against it. Mayor Thompson had nothing whatsoever to do with it. A number of the colored delegates who were not pleased with the plans of the segregationists went to the Congress Hotel and were given seats in the autos which left from that place. THE APPEAL believes it is but fair to Mayor Thompson that this charge against him be refuted. He has been a consistent friend of the colored people for many years and has given the race better representation in high salaried places than any Mayor Chicago ever had. "MY COUNTRY IS THE WORLD." It was in 1833, on July 13th, that William Lloyd Garrison, speaking at Exeter Hall, London, England, uttered the momentous words: "My country is the world; my countrymen are all mankind." Garrison's words are the ones which will be treasured by the ages. They are sparks from the fire within him. They illuminate his breadth of mind, his Catholic spirit and his indomitable courage. In the summer of 1833, ever active and resourceful for the freedom of the American slave, he visited England. By this time he had become a national character. The Liberator, the anti-slavery organ, which had as its motto, "Our Country is the world, Our Countrymen Mankind," was two years old. He had been imprisoned in Baltimore, the Georgia legislature had offered a price for his head, and on his way to his ship at New York, through Connecticut, he was pursued by a sheriff with writs for his apprehension. But he reached London safely. It was his first trip to the world's metropolis and in company with his coworker, George Thompson, he was shown some attention by the anti-slavery element in London. Garrison was the accredited agent of the New England anti-slavery society, and his object was the collection of funds for the establishment of manual training schools for the youth of African blood in the United States. Another object was to combat an African colonization scheme, to which Garrison was firmly opposed. A meeting was arranged for the American champion of the American slave at Exeter Hall on the evening of July 13th. The great auditorium was packed. Garrison was introduced by George Thompson. He began thus: "Mr. Chairman, it is long since I sacrificed all my national, complexional and all prejudices upon the altar of Christian love, and breaking down the narrow boundaries of a selfish patriotism, inscribed upon my banner this motto: 'My country is the world; my countrymen are all mankind. MERGE RACES, HIS PLEA. An Americanization that will result in a merger of all races and peoples that "have come to swell our population, a merger that will be so complete that the thought and conduct, social and political, of all of them will be so directed that America and America only receives their unqualified and undivided allegiance," was urged by Associate Justice of the District Supreme Court Frederick L. Siddons, the principal speaker at the closing session of the citizenship convention held recently in Washington, D.C. Justice Siddons said that the natives of the United States, as well as those coming from foreign lands, should be instructed in American citizenship if the motives and ideals of our government were to be looked up to and respected by aliens. Justice Siddons said that it was largely this country's fault that America has so-called "hyphenates." The justice concluded by exhoring everyone present to do all in his or her power to perform "the great and noble task of developing the ideal American citizen. THE CROSS THE TORTURE (Note the "Frenzied" Mob). ```markdown ``` MOB OF CHRISTIANS BURNING HUMAN BEING IN U. S. A. Turkish, Bulgarian, Albania, Cossack, Fiji Islands, Moro (Head Hunters), Thug (Indian Stranglers) and German (in Belgium) Papers Please Copy. Fifty thousand copies of the story of the "Waco Horror" have just been distributed by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People through its official organ, the Crisis, and as a result a campaign for an anti-lynching fund of $10,000 has been hearing the details of this American atrocity, which for barbarity surpasses anything charged against the Germans in Belgium, Judge Moorfield Storey, National President of the Association, and formerly President of the American Bar Association, and Mr. Philip G. Peabody, both of Boston offered to contribute $1,000 toward a fund on condition that the remaining $8,000 be raised by August 1. The N. A. A. C. P. sent a special investigator from National headquarters at 70 Fifth avenue, New York, who commenced gathering evidence in Waco, Texas, where the burning occured on September 14, 2004, the lynching, inasmuch as fifteen thousand people had sanctioned the affair by their presence and dozens of pictures were taken, there was no difficulty in ascertaining the names of the killers, the failure of both the judge and sheriff to make the slightest effort to protect their prisoner. The Association is bending every effort to secure a distinguished Texas lawyer with experience in case against these murderers into court. Politics, the investigator found, was at the bottom of the affair. Sam Fleming, the sheriff, is up for reelection at the Democratic primary in July. His opponent, Buchanan, though unaware, has "three dead niggers to kill" in the district's most popular. Unless he is to go back to selling buggies and cultivators for the THE TORTURE (Note hardware store, Sam needed a lynching to increase his popularity. The murder of Mrs. Fryer on Monday, May 8, came just at the right time. Washington, a colored boy of seventeen and rape, his trial was set for Monday, May 15. The crowd began gathering from the surrounding country on Sunday. When court opened, 1,500 crowded into the room, inside the rail, the judge's desk and jury box; and 2,000 more waited in the courtyard. The District Judge of the Criminal Court, R. I. Munroe, elbowed his way to his desk, and the boy was brought from his chambers, where he had been secreted since the sheriff brought him from Dallas in the middle of the night. The chambers were called, the crowd yelled. "We do not believe that the trial was allowed to be hurried through. The jury brought in a verdict of guilt of murder and assessed his punishment at death. The sessed his punishment at death. The defendant had waived his legal rights, and would have been hanged that night. There was a pause of a full minute. The court stenographer slipped out with the records. Sheriff Fleming sneaked out, too. Then a big fellow in the back of the court room yelled, "Get the niger!" They took him before the court had pronounced judgment, without the judge lifting a finger in protest. Down the back stairs they rushed him to the crowd outside. They put in his mouth so that he wouldn't chin out in his mouth so that those tugging at it broke it, the drama of the Anheuser brewery truck, who led the rabble, wound it around his ```markdown ``` THE WACO HORROR. own wrist rather than take chances that the boy should die too soon. Many had come a long way to attend this party and they didn't want it to be missed. Everybody was happy; they enjoyed and sang like a bunch of fans at a ball game, according to a Waco paper. When the boy's clothes had been cut up and distributed as souvenirs there were not enough pieces to go around, so somebody cut off an ear for his keepsake. The Waco Times-Herbert published the same afternoon, said the decease of the burning, people on every side a hand in showing their feelings in the matter by striking the Negro with anything obtainable; some struck him with shovels, bricks, clubs, and others stabbed him and cut him until when they stung up in the body was a solid-colored piece of the many wounds inflicted covered him from head to foot." They took Washington to a tree on the City Hall lawn just outside the window of His Honor, the Mayor, which he generously shared with Mr. Gildersleeve, the photographer to whom he generously shared with A chain was thrown over the limb of this tree, and while the fire was being lit, this bloody thing was hoisted into the air where everyone would have a full view. A manicurist who looked good, Goldstein & Mingle, whose windows looked like a laboratory, the investigator she saw them unsec the lad. As the chain tightened around his neck, this half-dead creature reached up convulsively to grab it, so they cut his fingers off. The Waco Times-Herald makes no of it. "Fingers, ears, pieces of clothing, the body," Negro's body were cut off by members of the mob that had crowded to the the "Frenzied" Mob). scene as if by magic when the word that the Negro had been taken in charge by the mob was heralded over the city. As the smoke rose to the heavens, the mass of people, numbers crowding the City Hall and crowding the square, hanging from the windows of buildings, viewing the scene from the tops of buildings and trees, set up a shout that was heard blocks away. Onlookers were hanging from the windows of the City Hall and every other building that commanded a sight of the burning, and as shouts of body commenced to burn, thousands of throats, and apparently everybody demonstrated in some way their satisfaction. * * * * The body of young Washington was burned to a crisp and was left for some time smouldering in the remains of women. Women and children who desired a view of the crowd allowed to do so, the crowds parting to let them look on," says the newspaper account. One father, when questioned about the propriety of holding his little son on his shoulder where he could get a good view, is reported as saying: "My son son can't learn, too young the proper way to treat a nigger." At 12 o'clock the crowd adjourned for lunch, as usual; but by a quarter past some of the boys were back to continue their meal, and had ridden in off the range created a diversion by lassosing the corpse and riding all over town with the remains dangling at the end of his lariat. The head bounced off as he galloped around the observation. The ghetto the Negroes prostitutes are segregated, some little 1971 boys set it up on one of the doorsteps and extracted the loose teeth, which are reported to have brought as high as a spice apiece from those who could afford a spice souvenirs. The few fragments which held together till night, the undertaker was able to chuck into a very small ash can. Waco is a center of American culture and a great Southern college town. It is a Christian college, 40,000 population, boasting thirty-nine white and twenty-four colored churches. Yet no responsible voice was raised in protest by bloody Monday, and one hue has been since. Those who were cry to Heaven should be raised against this and every lynching, by legal prosecution, by publicity, by co-operation with the best white element of the South, for the agitation, are urged to assist the National Association for the Advancement of Women in raising this $10,000 anti-lynching fund before August 1. Contributions should be sent to Oswald Garrison Villard, 200 W. 11th St. at the national headquarters of the organization, 70 Fifth ave. New York. Secretary. "COLORED LEADERSHIP." (REV.) WM. A.

DILLINGHAM Are Remembered by a Number of Their Friends on Their 36th Wedding Anniversary. That "it is more blessed to give than to receive" is as true today as it was when the above quotation was incorporated in the "best of books." And on that ground a number of the friends of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Dillingham are enlisted to enjoy the blessing. Ms. Hattie Hobbes conceived the idea that a nice thing for the friends of the Dillingham derer them a surprise party on the 36th anniversary of their wedding last Tuesday evening. She called upon Mrs. J. Q. Adams to assist her and she, nothing loath, consented. As both of these ladies are "some" workers, and the object was a worthy one, the co-operation of the co-operation of a number of the plea to "chip in" and the result was quite satisfactory to the promoters, the donors and the recipients. The surprise party congregated at the residence of Mrs. Adams and at about 9 o'clock went in a body to the residence of the Dillingham, 569 and was at home and was almost paralyzed with surprise as the crowd proceeded to fill her house. Mrs. Dillingham, who is employed at night, knew nothing of the coming of the party and was not present, having had no opportunity to attend. After the crowd had extended congratulations and had piled a lot of staple and fancy groceries, etc., on the dining table, Mrs. Adams stepped forward and made the following speech: Friends and neighbors: We are gathered here this evening, to show to a couple of our friends and neighbor's their life, of more than a quarter of a century, that been lived in vain. And, also, to congratulate them upon having safely weathered the storms of the tempestuous sea of matrimony, for thirty-six years. Our coming here is to give them our evidence that we are interested in them, and that they should know it while they are still occupants of this mundane sphere. And while we know they are not needy we have brought with us a few things that go to make life pleasurable, which we believe will be received in the spirit in which they are given. Mr. and Mrs. John Dillingham, we congratulate you upon your thirty-six wedding anniversary and hope you will live to celebrate your fiftieth and that we may all be present to celebrate. May God bless and keep you in your present. At the close of her speech Mrs. Adams presented a purse of $12.00 that had been gathered by her. Mrs. Dillingham made a short but fitting response testifying to the pleasure and thankfulness she felt. During the evening some piano selec- tions were Miss Adina Adams and later Mr. and Mrs. Adams rendered some of the vocal duets for which they are famous. The donors of the purse were: Messrs. and Mes- dames J. Q. Adams, W. W. McCoy J. A. Adams, C. Cox, B. C. Archer, W. E. Alexandrine, W. E. Echols, W. Williams, L. B. McConnell, J. B. Weldon, J. W.

WET WASH LAUNDRY The Greatest Achievement of Its Kind in the United States. One of the most wonderful and ex- traordinary examples of what can be done, where there is a determination to succeed, was ostensibly brought to the notice of THE APPEAL, this week, by a visit to the "J. & H. WET WASH LAUNDRY" 3753-55-57 Cedar avenue, Minneapolis. And, in the hope that what was seen and learned by the visit, may furnish an incentive for others of our young to participate, along some line of endeavor, this week. Something over five years ago, Mr. Jasper Gibbs, Jr., then employed in the Minneapolis postoffice, was asked by a friend to look up a location for a wet wash laundry. He did so, and found one, but his friend had then decided to do something else that caused him to abandon the idea of starting a laundry. But Mr. Gibbs, then less than 20 years of age, had gotten the laundry bee in his own bonnet and decided that if the prospects were as flattering as his friend had featured them, he saw no reason why he not go into the business and succeed. He he and his brother, Mr. Hiram Gibbs, fourteen months younger than himself did a start with six customers. He or nothing, about the business but determined to learn, and they have no time. They are both high school graduates and had laid an educational foundation which is absolutely necessary now-a-days as a prerequisite in almost all lines of business. Hence, having this foundation, they built upon it wisely and well. They worked early and late, very often the entire night. They are quite modest and unassuming young men and though very popular in society circles, they did not allow social entities to interfere with their business. The result of the combination of sterling qualities being brought to car upon their business venture, was a steady increase until now, the boiler room of their new establishment is large than their entire original laundry, and they now have as many hundreds of customers as they once had individuals on their new plant has a capacity of fifteen hundred family washings per week, which they hope to have at no very distant day. The laundry is now owned and operated by the five Gibbs brothers, viz.: Jasper, Hiram, Morris, Mark and Wendell; all working in the laundry, but the actual business management is divided between Jasper and Hiram. Besides the five brothers there are five other employees. The building, a picture of which is shown in this issue, has an area of 73 by 125 square feet, with a 16-foot ceiling, making it light and airy. It is composed of vitrified brick and concrete and is strictly sanitary in every respect, which are 11 washers in which 53 individual family washings may be done at one time. There are two large centrifugal wringers from which the clothes are almost dry enough to iron. They have 3 wagons and 2 motor trucks and a splendid sanitary barn with a capacity for 8 horses. The Gibbs Brothers are quite exemplary in their habits and manners; modest, courteous and affable, a typical "band of brothers" all united in their common welfare, and that of their mother, Mrs. Ione E. Gibbs, to whom YOUR 2 WAIT For the Last Big Picnic PARKER'S LAKE On the Luce Line Special Picnic Trains will Leave the Luce Line Depot at 10:00 A. M. 2:00 P. M. 5:30 P. M. Pavilion Tags 25 cents.

We make this claim because we have one of the largest, most modern and sanitary wet wash plants in the United States. Our auto trucks and wagons call for and deliver everywhere in Minneapolis. Call Spelling 1500 they enthusiastically and unanimously ascribe the credit for their phenomenal success. The laundry and equipment as it stands today—at a low estimate—represents an investment of $20,000,00 as the result of their five years of laundry experience. The plan is really the largest, most sanitary and up-to-date wet wash laundry in Minnesota, if not in the United States. THE APPEAL is of the opinion that this is the most remarkable achievement made by any family in the United States in a period of five years and challenges successful contradiction. As we have herein said before, we hope this will inspire some of our young men to emulate the splendid example of the Gibbs Brothers. THE MEMORIAL In Honor of the Heroes of the 10th Cavalry a Great Meeting. On last Monday night quite a notable meeting was held in honor of the fallen hero troopers of the Tenth Cavalry at the Old Capitol under the auspices of the St. Paul Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The Representatives' Chamber was filled with people. Dr. Val Do. Turner, vice president of the association presided. Prayer was offered by Rev. E. H. McDonald; J. H. Donaldson recited an original poem, "The Memory of the Heroes of the 10th Cavalry who fell at Carrizal, Mexico." Friendly greetings were brought from the Welfare League by Mrs. H. A. Tomlinson. Mr. C. M. A. Midist, private secretary to Gov. Burnquist, represented the Governor who was unable to be present and made a splendid address which the Waiters' and Porters' Band from Minneapolis played the Star Stangled Banner, Mr. Earl C. Walker sang a solo. Senator Campbell made a splendid speech. B. S. Smith, Esq., of Minneapolis, followed with one of his excellent speeches. Miss Nannie Burroughs, President of the National Training School at Washington, D. C., was the next speaker and she did not, "let 'em left her." Her speech carried the house by storm. W. T. Francis made some very pertinent remarks. Mr. J. H. Sherwood offered a resolution that was unanimously adopted. A collection was called for and $33.00 in cash and $16.00 in subscriptions was the result. Benediction by Rev. A. H. Lealtad was very creditable. In GREY, FRECHT Mrs. J.
