ANNIVERSARY: OF ATEANTA'S Justice and wrong which hes beet
Ten years have passed since
Atlanta, Georgia, was the scene of
one of the most uncalled for and
bloodiest riots ever recorded in his-
tory. Colored men and women were
ruthlessly slaughtered because of race
hatred; not a single one killed had
been guilty of any crime whatever.
‘The massacre was caused by the in-
cendiary editorials of the Atlanta
News and Journal, owned by Hoke
‘Smith, since governor of Georgia and
now United States senator from that
state,
Im his gubernatorial canvass Smith
also made incendiary speeches incit-
ing the Caucasians against colored
people and demanding that the race
be distranchised,
Senator Hoke Smith is said to be
the author of the jim-crow policy of
the present administration and he has
the active support of Vardaman, John
Sharpe Williams and nearly every
Southerner in Congress.
THE APPEAL reprints in this is

E, Burghardt Du Bols, editor of The
Crisis. It was written just after the
riot, the author being at that time a
resident of Atlanta.

anniversary of the massacre and the
recent renaissance of burnings and
lynchings in Georgia render the pub

WILLIAM MONROE TROTTER.
‘The unceasing warfare against in
justice and wrong which has been
waged by William Monroe Trotter
editor of the Boston Guardian, ought
to win for him a warm spot in the
heart of every right-thinking human
being.
‘With his pen and tongue, he has
done much to quicken the moral fiber
of the colored people and they are
Iearning the lesson that sacrifices
must be made, if they would win the
great battle for civil and political
rights,
‘There are no frills and furbelows
about William Monroe Trotter. He is
a plain, earnest, honest, upright man,
who has decided to give up wealth,
official preferment and worldly honors
to dedicate his life to a noble cause.
THE APPEAL has always admired
him because he is an UNCOMPRO.
MISING advocate of right and justice.
While the majority of the so-called
leaders have equivocated and com:
promised the people for gold or
Power, William Monroe Trotter has
always stood as a stone wall against
every form of injustice whether by
the nation, the state, the municipality
or the church,
[ U. 8S. WARNS TURKEY!
| *a@ American embassy in Constan-
‘tinople has been instructed by. the
state department to make representa-
‘tions to the porte in behalf of Ar-
menians 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 mas.
sacre of Armentans in Persia, The
Purpose is said to be to forewarti
Turkey against any such situation as
prevailed in Asia Minor.
The Turks will not pay any atten-
tion 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 mas.
sacred without mercy and lynched
‘without trial in the Southern murder
belt. They know that the colored
People who aro 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
chureh, which is continually denounce:
ing the Turks as barbarians. . The
treatment of their brethren of darker
hue by the Caucasian Christians rep-
resents the very refinement of hellish
brutality rather than human brother-
hood.
Instead of making hypocritical rep-
Tesentations to the Turkish govern-
ment, the United States government
ought to stop segregation of citizens
in the civil service and “in the name
of humanity” President Wilson, Sec-
Tetary Lansing et 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 bor-
ders of this Christian (?) land.
KEEP “DEVIL” IN M. E. RITUAL,
Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal
chureh are willing to have the mar-
Tlage ceremony shortened, to dis-
countenance the old doctrine of “in-
fant depravity.” But they refuse to
take “devil” out of their ritual.
These facts were learned with the
arrival in St. Paul of the revised book
of discipline and ritual with more
changes in it than have been made
in years, The alterations were made
at the general conference in Sara-
toga Springs last May, It was decided
not to eliminate the: word “devil.”
And it is well that the word has
been retained in the book because it
is in the hearts of the majority of
‘the people who attended the confer-
‘ence at which one of the most devil-
ish, hellish and unchristian actions
‘ever legislated in a church conference

wrong, but the fact that it was made

IN THE ENEMY’S COUNTRY.
In his speech at Nashville, Tenn,,
in the enemy's country, Charles E.
Hughes made a bitter attack upon
President Wilson and the Democratic
Congress for meeting the demands of
the railroad employes for an eight
hour day by the passage of the Adam
son bill.
‘The address was delivered in the
auditorium before a packed audience
of 3,000 people, a large majority of
whom were openly hostile to the
speaker, and many of them attempted
to start demonstration for Wilson by
hisses and cat-alls, but his fighting
words won the crowd and they
greeted him with tremendous ap
plause.
Mr. Hughes walked calmly to the
front of the platform and said:
“T shall not soon forget the warmth
of the’ welcome of this vociferous
meeting,” he said. “It is a great de-
light to have the pleasure of visiting
Nashville, and it has been peculiarly
grateful to me to receive many cour.
tesies at the hands of the good people
here, quite regardless of their party
affiliations.”
‘Some men who had taken part in
the hissing sat back abruptly as if
they had received a slap in the face.
The ‘crowd appreciated the situation,
and a nervous laugh, followed by a
ripple of applause, swept through the
hall,

One of the first things ‘unearthed
was the fact that it is a common oc
currence to sell young girls for im

the prevailing rate for young
chickens. The quotation on old hens

Will Be Held at Washington, D. C.,

Proscription and Other Evite:
Boston, Mass. Sept. 7.—The Na-
tional Colored Citizenship Rights Con-
gress will be held in Washington, D.
C., Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday,
Sept. 25-27. After a canvass of the
situation and receiving suggestions
from many raie champions over the
country Rey. Byron Gunner of Hill-
burn, N. Y., president of the National
Equal Rights League, which proposed
and calls the congress in lieu largely
of its ninth annual meeting, an-
nounces the capital of the nation as
the consensus of opinion to hold this
Face congress on equality of rights.
No place could be more fitting.
‘This National Colored Congress is
to be an open one, both to delegated
persons and to individual representa-
tives of the cause who attend on their
own responsibility. It is to be free
and open for race conference, action
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 _ac-
quaintance, 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
of this gathering. No move will im-
press the white American public of
our presence, number, capacity and
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 lit
erary societies, fraternal organiza
tions, political and other clubs are
asked to elect and send delegates

‘slogan.

ters have been written to the Re-
‘publican leaders trom Chairman Wil
cox down, asking that all segregated
features be eliminated.
August 16, the editor again ad.
‘dressed Mr. Hughes, sending the fol
lowing telegram:
Saint Paul, Minn, August 16, 1916.
Hon. Charles Evans Hughes,
Republican Candidate for President,
| On tour, Portland, Ore.
| You have voiced “undiluted Ameri-
‘canism” as the slogan of the Repub-
‘ican 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 pro-
test against the formation-of a {im-
erow 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 be-
yond the pale ot Americanism. ‘Trust
you will prevent the execution of any

MOSES MARTIN DEAD.
Another of the Old-Timers Gone to
His Reward.
Mr. Moses Martin is dead. Rela-
tives and friends stood with bowed
heads at the grave where his earthly
remains were committed to their last
resting place in Oakland cemetery
last Tuesday afternoon.
The deceased was born of slave
parents in Tennessee about the year
1833, but owing to the inhuman insti
tution of slavery he knew little of his
kin or early life. Fifty-one years ago
he came to St. Paul and made his
home here. He was of a very kind
and generous disposition and for
many years his home was the home
of a number of dependent children.
To Mr. and Mrs, Martin there was
born a son, Charles Martin, who was
the delight and joy of their home;
Mrs. Martin departed this life several
years ago and he was so wrapped up
in the son that he seemed not to have
recovered from the blow of griet
caused by the death of his son
Charles in the state of Florida some
months ago.
Mr. John ‘Martin, 277 Fuller street
is a foster son of the deceased, and
he had charge of the funeral of his
adopted father.
| Mr. Martin was an inmate of the
Crispus Attucks Home for several
years, and until his physical condi
tion became such that it was neces
sary to place him in the hospital
where he died Friday, Sept. 1, a
11:40 a. m.
‘The deceased was a devoted member
of Pilgrim Baptist chureh, to whict
he gave of his time, labor and money
until the day he became entirely de
pendent upon others. Of the man3
early members of the church tha
Passed away within the. last- thre
years none was more honored an¢
Tespected than the deceased. His
body laid in state at Pilgrim Baptis
church last Tuesday from 10:00 a. m
‘until 2:30 p. m., and a host of friend:
looked upom his face for the last time
‘The funeral services were conductet
by Rev. B. N. Murrell, his pastor, whe
was at his bedside when he enteret
upon his final sleep.
| "There were numerous friends pres
ent and several floral tributes. Spe
cial music was furnished by the
church choir. Resolutions of respec
for the deceased were sent by thi
Sunday school, in which for man3
years he was much interested.
Simpson & Wills were the funera
directors.

WHO WILL BE THE LEADING STAR

“The Modern Minnehaha” to be Com

Your Favorite.
A short time ago Mr. Thaddeus
Stepp, manager and director of THE
STEPP MOVING PICTURE SPECIAL.
‘TIES at Duluth was 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

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.
Dear Sir:
While in St. Paul and Minneapolis,
recently I was impressed strongly
with the idea, that the Twin Cities,
should afford @ rousing photo drama,
acted by members of the race of the
two cities. Now it is absolutely nec-
essary 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 Minne-
apolis, are the gate-ways to this great
and historical Northwest, and there is
enough of culture and refinment 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
be favorably impressed with my prop-
osition, and lend me your hearty co-
operation in laying the matter before
the readers of THE APPEAL. I am
already arranging a scenario or hav-
ing it written especially for the Twin
Citles, entitled, “The Modern Minnie-
haha”
‘Now the question arises who is to
be “Minnie” this must be decided by
popular vote, the young lady receiv-
ing the highest number of votes will
be the leading lady, in this play, these
votes will be secured of you, and for-
warded to me here, 625 Fifth Ave.
East, Duluth, Minn., to be in my hands
no later than Wednesday morning of
each week, that I may count same, and
return candidate's name, and the num-
ber of votes each receives so that I
can report result to you for publica-
tion 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 tle vote, I reserve the right to cast
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.

year to show their wares to lovers of
horses. Farmers are being urged to
attend the State Fair and make their
arrangements for any pure-bred mares
