Sixteen members of the mob which stormed the jail at Lima, Ohio, last week in an attempt to lynch a colored man charged with crime have been indicted. Thirteen of the sixteen have been arrested and are in jail. It is believed that 100 indictments will be returned. That is the difference between Ohio, where the law is respected, and Georgia, where the mob rules supreme. Ohio acts within a week; Georgia never acts.

Ten years have passed since Atlanta, Georgia, was the scene of one of the most uncalled for and bloodiest riots ever recorded in history. 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 incendiary editorials of the Atlanta News and Journal, owned by Hoke Smith, since governor of Georgia and now United States senator from that state. In his gubernatorial canvass Smith also made incendiary speeches inciting the Caucasians against colored people and demanding that the race be disfranchised. 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 A LIT AL A Litany of Atlanta Silent God, Thou whose voice afar in mist a left our ears an-hungered in these fearful da Hear us, good Lord!

The unceasing warfare against injustice 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 learning 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 UNCOMPROMISING advocate of right and justice.

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 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 borders of this Christian (?) land. KEEP "DEVIL" IN M. E. RITUAL. Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal church are willing to have the marriage ceremony shortened, to discountenance the old doctrine of "infant 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 Saratoga 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 conference at which one of the most devilish, hellish and unchristian actions ever legislated in a church conference was enacted—the union of the Northern and Southern Methodists. Bend us Thine ear, O Lord! Hear us, O heavenly Father! Forgive us, good Lord; we know not what we say! Keep not thou silence, O God!

The Southern white members refused to come back unless the colored membership was segregated for all time, the cowardly colored curs who call themselves leaders, silently acquiescing in the insult to the Christ. As the devil himself is in the people of the church, by all means the word "devil" should stay in the ritual. 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 employees for an eighth day by the passage of the Adamson 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-calls, but his fighting words won the crowd and they greeted him with tremendous applause. Mr. Hughes walked calmly to the front of the platform and said: "I shall not soon forget the warmth of the welcome of this vociferous meeting," he said. "It is a great delight to have the pleasure of visiting Nashville, and it has been peculiarly grateful to me to receive many courtesies at the hands of the good people here, quite regardless of their party affiliations."

A "white slave" investigation is being pulled off in New York City. It is all white. The buyers, the sellers and all are "pure white." One of the first things unearthed was the fact that it is a common occurrence to sell young girls for immoral purposes at auction by the weight, and one dollar per pound is the prevailing rate for young chickens. The quotation on old hens was not given. The slimy trial, with its wrecks of young girls, its stories of men who lived off the earnings of women held in virtual bondage, stories of women orgies participated in by the "new rich" runs right into highest society circles in the metropolis. It's a dirty mess, the greater part of the testimony in the courts being unprintable and, mind you, it's all white. The "superior" Caucasians are welcome to the whole white business. However, after the revelations in New York, Chicago, Baltimore and other American cities it ill becomes the "pure whites" to spread abroad any more lies about the immorality of the colored people. --- 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 ANTA IT no longer blind, Lord God, deaf to our prayer and dumb to our dumb suffering. Surely Thou too art not white, O Lord, a pale, bloodless, heartless thing? Ah! Christ of all the Pitites! Forgive the thought! Forgive these wild, blasphemous words. Thou art still the God of our black fathers, and in Thy soul's soul sit some soft darkenings of the evening, some shadowings of the velvet night. But whisper—speak—call, great God, for Thy silence is white terror to our hearts! The way, O God, show us the way and point us the path. Whither? North is greed and South is blood; within, the coward, and without, the liar. Whither? To death? Amen! Welcome dark sleep! Whither? To life? But not this life, dear God, not this. Let the cup pass from us, tempt us not beyond our strength, for there is that clamoring and clawing within, to whose voice we would not listen, yet shudder lest we must, and it is red, Ah! God! It is a red and awful shape. Lord, we have done these pleading, wavering words. We beseech Thee to hear us, good Lord! We bow our heads and hearken soft to the sobbing of women and little children. We beseech Thee to hear us, good Lord! COLORED RACE CONGRESS. Will Be Held at Washington, D. C., September 25-27 to Discuss Race Prescription and Other Evils: Boston, Mass., Sept. 7.—The National Colored Citizenship Rights Congress 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 rate champions over the country Rev. Byron Gunner of Hillburn, N. Y., president of the NationalEqual Rights League, which proposed an annual congress in 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 be an 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 conference, action and declaration. The congress will be held 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 of this gathering. No move will impress the white American public of resuscitation, number, capacity and spirit for 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. Any person is at liberty to start such a committee. Act at once. Secretary Wm. Monroe Trotter at 27 Cornhill, Boston, will be glad to receive suggestions and inquiries. 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 addressed 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 before the pale of Americanism. Trust you will prevent the execution of any such plans. John Q. Adams, Editor, THE APPAL ST. PAUL WEEK'S RECORD OF HAPPENINGS. IN MINNESOTA'S CAPITOL.

Relatives 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 institution 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 grief 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 condition became such that it was necessary to place him in the hospital, where he died Friday, Sept. 1, at 11:40 a. m. The deceased was a devoted member of Pilgrim Baptist church, to which he gave of his time, labor and money until the day he became entirely dependent upon others. Of the many early members of the church that passed away within the last three years none was more honored and the deceased. His body laid in state at Pilgrim Baptist church last Tuesday from 10:00 a.m. until 2:30 p. m., and a host of friends looked upon his face for the last time. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. B. N. Murrell, his pastor, who was at his bedside when he entered upon his final sleep. There were numerous friends present and several floral tributes. Special music was furnished by the church choir. Resolutions of respect for the deceased were sent by the Society, and many years he was much interested. Simpson & Wills were the funeral directors. --- Dancing at 10:00 MOVING PICTURES 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 SPECIALTIES 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 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 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 2020 century to 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 be favorably impressed with my proposition, and lend me your hearty cooperation in laying the matter before you. THE REAL ABEL. I am already among the esteemed, and it is 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 am morning of each week, that I am evening of each week, and 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 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. 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 may be placed in a publicly made of your choice and her address and ward to Mr. Stepp or votes may be sent to this office. 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 office to votes counted not on THE APPEAL may be received. The lady receiving the largest number of votes will be the leading lady in the photo play. The others voted for will be given parts in the play, if possible, according to votes each receive. N. B.

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.

Farmers are being urged to attend the State Fair and make their arrangements for any pure-bred mares and stallions they intend to buy. An effort will be made to present an unusual opportunity of studying types and breeds of horses, so farmers may be more familiar with the kinds of horses which bring the most money on the market.
