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.

More than $7,200 has been raised for the Anti-Lynching fund of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and a new appeal is being made to complete the fund at once. THE APPEAL trusts that every American who believes in American institutions will give something toward this worthy cause. U. S. WARNS TURKEY! The American embassy in Constantinople has been instructed by the state department to make representations to the porte in behalf of Armenians who are threatened by the Turkish advance into Persia. The representations call on the Turkish government, "in the name of humanity" not to permit any massacre of Armenians in Persia. The purpose is said to be to forewarn Turkey against any such situation as prevailed in Asia Minor. The Turks will not pay any attention to any "representation in the name of humanity" because they know that they are hypocritical, and that "humanity" has little place in the United States. The Turks know that colored men and women and children are massacred without mercy and lynched without trial in the Southern murder belt. They know that the colored people who are not killed are cowed and discriminated against and meet with injustice from the cradle to the grave. The Turks know that the worst enemy the colored people have in this country is the so-called Christian church, which is continually denouncing the Turks as barbarians. The treatment of their brethren of darker hue by the Caucasian Christians represents the very refinement of hellish brutality rather than human brotherhood. Instead of making hypocritical representations to the Turkish government, the United States government ought to stop segregation of citizens in the civil service and "in the name of humanity" President Wilson, Secretary Lansing and al ought to tell Texas, Georgia, South Carolina and the other hellocracies of the South that the ruthless murder of colored Christians must cease within the borders of this Christian (?) land. ```markdown ``` THE COUNTRY WITH THE WORLD Wealthy Business Man of Nashville, Tenn., Just Elected President of National Business League.

HARTS, Colonel, U. S. Army, Superintendent. GOOD DOCTRINE. Hon. Elihu Root, president of the American Bar Association, delivered a strong speech at the opening session at Chicago. Among other things, Mr. Root said: "Too many of us have forgotten that not only eternal vigilance, but eternal effort, is the price of liberty. Our minds have been filled with the assertion of our rights, and we have thought little of our duties. "The chief element of strength which the nations of Europe are acquiring is the spirit of their people, who have learned a new loyalty of devotion and sacrifice for their country. In a world where that spirit prevails the United States will slip back in the race unless we, too, have a new birth of loyalty and devotion." "The second general truth is that national strength requires the spirit of solidarity among the people of the nation. Sectional or class misunderstanding and hatred or dislike are elements of vital weakness. To be strong, a nation's citizenship must be a title to friendship and kindly interest among her citizens. "The rights and privileges, the property and life of every American, whether he be at home or in Mexico or in the Far East, on land or sea, are our concern and the concern of each of us. Prosperity to him is a benefit to us; and it is vital to each of us that we shall have such a country and such a government as shall put power and prestige and honor and active resolution into the protection of every American." That's good doctrine about protecting Americans at home as well as abroad. The rights of colored Americans in the South ought to be of as much concern if they happen to live in the Southern murder belt as if they were in some foreign land. AGAINST JIMCROW CAMPAIGN. THE APPEAL started the fight against a jimcrow Republican campaign two months ago, when on June 15th, the editor addressed a letter to Mr. Hughes, the Republican candidate for President requesting him to have the campaign conducted on a platform of "undiluted Americanism" using the words which he had adopted as his slogan. Since that time a number of letters have been written to the Republican leaders from Chairman Wilcox down, asking that all segregated features be eliminated. August 16, the editor again ad- 1 Boston, Mass., Aug. 17—The proposed National Colored Citizenship Rights Congress will be held in Washington, D. C., the latter part of September. After a canvass of the situation and receiving suggestions from many rate champions over the country Rev. Byron Gunner of Hillburn, N. Y., president of the National Equal Rights League, which proposed and calls the congress in lieu largely of its ninth annual meeting, announces the capital of the nation as the consensus of opinion to hold this race congress on equality of rights. No place could be more fitting. This National Colored Congress is to open one, both to delegated persons, and to individual representatives of the cause who attend on their own responsibility. It is to be free and open for race contestation and declaration. The congress will organize itself independently. The Equal Rights League will call it to order and those assembled will then create the congress. Racial fraternizing, mutual acquaintance, unity of spirit and of progress, exchange of notes on local conditions, race unity of feeling and a future national working together of rights, a united declaration to the country of colored Americans on color proscription, are among the purposes this gathering. No move will impress white American public of our present society, spirit for equal rights, like an actual national convention attended by large numbers of colored citizens from various states. Delegated representatives are quite advisable, and churches, civic and literary societies, fraternal organizations, political and other clubs are asked to elect and send delegates. The call asks that a Citizens' Equal Rights Committee be formed by public spirited citizens in each community to work up interest, hold a public meeting and send representatives. Anyone who wants to start such a committee. Act at once Secretary Wm. Monroe Trotter at 27 Cornhill, Boston, will be glad to receive suggestions and inquiries. dressed Mr. Hughes, sending the following telegram: Saint Paul, Minn., August 16, 1916. Hon. Charles Evans Hughes, Republican Candidate for President, On tour, Portland, Ore. You have voiced "undiluted Americanism" as the slogan of the Republican campaign. The colored people are undiluted and unhyphenated Americans, born in America, and they desire to be treated as all other Americans are treated. This is a protest against the formation of a jim-crow annex to handle the colored voters in the campaign. They have suffered too much from segregation by the Democrats to relish it in the Republican party. To segregate the colored people is to place them beyond the pale of Americanism. Trust you will prevent the execution of any such plans. John Q. Adams, Editor THE APPEAL 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 exhorting everyone present to do all in his or her power to perform "the great and noble task of developing the ideal American citizen. TO VOTE AT 113. In 1803, when Thomas Jefferson was President, when the population of the United States was 6,000,000, when the capitol at Washington had not nearly been completed, when Napoleon was not yet Emperor of the French, when France still owned all of Missouri, Arkansas, Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota, Nebraska, and Oklahoma and a large part of Colorado, Kansas, Wyoming and Montana, a colored child was born into slavery in North Carolina. Tuesday this child, now a woman 113 years years old, freed and enfranchised, had her name inscribed on the pool books in Chicago and at the next election will cast her first vote. Her name is Mrs. Susan King. She has all her faculties and answered the questions of the election judge briskly. Mrs. King avoided a direct answer when asked for whom her first vote will be cast? A GREAT GRAFT A national colored democratic league has been organized for the purpose of making a raid on the democratic barrel. The four members met this week and elected themselves officers. Resolutions indorsing the administration of President Wilson and his jimcrow policy were adopted by a unanimous vote of four. Mr. Peacock explained an elaborate plan "to get next to" the democratic national campaign fund which was received with great enthusiasm and shouts of "Let me get to it!" 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 launched. Immediately upon hearing the details of this American atrocity, which for barbarity surpasses anything charged against the Germans in Belgium, Judge Moorefield Storey, National President of the Association, and formerly President of the American Bar Association, and Mr. Philip G. Peabody, both of Boston, each offered to contribute $1,000 to ward such 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 occurred, within forty-eight hours after 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 and addresses of the ring-leaders and 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 courage enough to bring the 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 illiterate, has "three dead niggers to his credit," and is therefore very 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. Jesse Washington, a colored boy of seventeen, confessed to both murder 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, about 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. As the jurors were called, the crowd yelled, "We don't need any jury!" but the trial was allowed to be hurried through. The jury brought in a case of murder and assessed his punishment. Theessed his punishment at death. The defendant had waived his legal rights, and would have been hanged that same afternoon. There was a pause of a full minute. The court stenographer slipped out with his records. Sheriff Fleming sneaked out, too. Then a big fellow in the back of the court room yelled, "Get the nigger!" 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 waiting outside. They put the chain in his mouth so that he wouldn't choke too soon, and when those tugging at it broke it, the driver of the Anheuser brewery truck, led the rabble, wound it around his MOB OF CHRI Turkish, Bulgarian, Albania, Cossas and G Defective Page --- 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 end in a minute. Everybody was happy; they shouted 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-Herald, published the same afternoon, "On the way to the scene of the burning, people on every side took a hand in, and their feelings in the matter by striking the Negro in anything obtainable; some struck him with shovels, bricks, clubs, and others stabbed him and cut him until when he was strung up his body was a solid color of red, the blood 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. Glidersleeve, the photographer to whom we are indebted for our cuts. A chain was thrown over the limb of this tree, and while the fire was being lit, this bloody thing was hotened into the air where everyone would be watching. A manicurist who works for Goldstein tells a gentle, whose windows look off on the ground, the investigator she saw them unsex 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 made no bones of it. "Fingers, ears, pieces of clothing, toes and other parts of the Negro's body were cut off by members of the mob that had crowded to the e 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, numbering in the neighborhood of 10,000, crowding the City Hall lawn and overflowing 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 the Negro's body commenced to burn, shouts of delight went up from the 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 the fire. "Women and children who desired to view the scene were allowed to do so, the crowds parting to let them look on," says the newspaper about the propriety of holding the tee 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 one some of the boys were back to continue the fun. A cowboy who had ridden in off the range created a diversion by lassoing the corpse and remaining dangling at the end. When the head bounced off as he galloped through the "reservation," the ghetto where the Negroes and prostitutes are segregated, some little ```markdown ``` boys set it up on one of the doorsteps and extracted the loose teeth, which are reported to have brought as high as five dollars apiece from those who could afford such rare and permanent souvenirs. The few fragments which held together till night, the undertaker was able to chuck into a very small ash can. What a center of American culture in Texas, a great Southern college town. It is a Christian city of 40,000 population, boasting thirty-nine white and twenty-four colored churches. Yet no responsible voice was raised in protest that bloody Monday, and only one has been since. Those who believe that a cry to Heaven should be raised against this and every lynching, by legal prosecution, by co-operation with the best white elephant South, by political agitation, are urged to sist the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to raise this $10,000 anti-lynching fund before August 1. Contributions should be sent to Oswald Garrison Villard, the national headquarters of the organization, 70 Fifth avenue. New York. (REV.) WM. A. BYRD. WEEK'S RECORD OF HAPPENINGS.

BRIEF ECHOES From the Big Masonic Meet in Chicago The wandering members of the Masonic craft have about all returned to the Twin Cities highly elated with the big doings in Chicago, which surpassed any former meeting. Of course our folks gathered a few plums as follows: Mrs. J. H. Sherwood was elected Grand Treasurer of the Grand Court of the Daughters of Isis; Mr. J. H. Sherwood was chosen chairman of the Executive Committee of the International Conference of Masonic Masons, (Mr. Sherwood still holds his position on the Grand Commandery of Missouri and was pointed chairman of the committee on foreign correspondence of the Grand Chapter R. A. M. of that state and jurisdiction); Mr. J. M. Morris of Minneapolis was advanced to Deputy Imperial Potentate of the Mystic Shrine; Mr. C. H. Robinson of Minneapolis was made a $33° Mason; the Chicago consistory (white) presented a $33° watch charm to each of the active Consistory members. The Daughters of Drill are the Grand Eastern Star will meet in St. Paul 1917; the Council of Grand Masters and Past Grand Masters will meet next year in Louisville, Ky., the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine and the Daughters of Isis will meet in Detroit at which time and place a special meeting of the Royal Arch Masons has been called to complete the formation of a General Grand Chapter; the International Conference of Knights Templars will meet at City; Mo., in 1918. The competitive City between the Shrine Patrols was won in New York, St. Louis second. In the Knights Templars Templars emanuel Commandery of Kansas City, Mo., won with Malta Commandery of Pittsburgh, Pa., second. The only casualty reported was the running down of Mr. G. L. Hoage by an auto, spraining one of his arms, but no bones were broken and he will be all right in a few days. WHO WILL BE THE LEADING STAR IN THE PHOTO PLAY. "The Modern Minnehaha" to be Composed of Members of the Race Living in the Twin Cities—Vote for Your Favorite. A short time ago Mr. Thaddeus Stepp, manager and director of THE STEPP MOVING PICTURE SPECIALIES at Duluth as in St. Paul and put on a moving picture show at Pilgrim Baptist Church that was very successful in every way. He was so imbued with the idea that a photo play with members of the race as the leading characters would make a big hit in the Twin Cities, that the following letter is the result: Duluth, Minn., Aug. 10, 1916. Mr. J. Q. Adams St. Paul, Minn. While in St. Paul and Minneapolis, recently I was impressed strongly with the idea, that the Twin Cities should afford a rousing photo drama, acted by members of the race of the two cities. Now it is absolutely necessary for us to act quickly in this 20th century time, and decide what we are going to do. I have made up my mind that St. Paul and Minneapolis, are the gate-ways to this great and historical Northwest, and there is enough of culture and refinement among the people to make such a photo play, a great success. I wanted to see you and have a general talk over the matter, but my time was so taken up while in your city, hence this letter. I hope you will probably impressed with my proposition, and lend your help in cooperation in laying the matter before the readers of THE APPEAL. I am already arranging a scenario or having it written especially for the Twin Cities, entitled "The Modern Minnie-ha-ha." Now the question arises who is to be "Minnie" this must be decided by popular vote, the young lady receiving the highest number of votes will be the leading lady, in this play, these votes will be secured of you, and forwarded to me here, 623 Fifth Ave. East, Duluth, Minn., to be in my hands each week, that I will Wednesday morning of each week, that I will return candidate's name, and the number of votes each receives so that I can report result to you for publication same week. This film will be exhibited in the Twin Cities so that every one will have a chance to see themselves as others see them, and will also be placed on the exchange circuit to be exhibited East, South and West. Of course there is to be a number of people in the cast, should there be a tie vote, I receive the right to the deciding vote, the others will be used in the cast also, according to the number of votes each receives. Yours truly, T. W. STEPP. Acting upon the suggestion of Mr. Stepp THE APPEAL has decided to give the people a chance to get into the movies, as follows: Carefully cut out the coupon that you will find in each copy of THE APPEAL. Write, plainly, the name of your choice and her address and forwards. Stepp or votes may be sent to it. Each coupon counts for five votes. Extra copies of THE APPEAL may be obtained at the office, 302 Court Block for three cents each, or coupons already cut out may be obtained at the same price. No votes counted not on THE APPEAL coupons. N. B. To get into this contest all you need to do is to send in your name and address on a coupon. VOTES FOR MOVIE PERFORMERS. I vote for M. No. .....

STOCK VALUED AT $1,100,000.00. 10 BULL Biggest Cattle Show in America This Year Predicted for the Minnesota State Fair, Sept. 4 to 9-All Records to Be Broken in the Swine Show. INDICATIONS are that the cattle show at the Minnesota State Fair, Sept. 4 to 9, will be the largest exposition of its kind in America this year. Last year the Hamline cattle show was the largest in the country, and more entries have been promised in the last few weeks than were obtained a year ago. The splendid crop conditions in the Northwest, and the greater attention which is being paid to pure-bred livestock, are said to be the principal reasons for the interest which is being taken in the cattle show at the Minnesota State Fair. Breeders in other parts of America are desirous of meeting the farmers of the Northwest, to sell them the pure-bred stock which is being bought in such numbers to raise the standard of livestock breeding in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, North and South Dakota.
