Predicted That Within Few Years Tillers of the Land Will Be Counting on the Fish Crop Just as Now They Count on Wheat, Corn and Other Products. Washington.—In a communication to the house of representatives asking for a new building for the bureau of fisheries-Secretary Redfield of the department of commerce makes several interesting suggestions, and one of them is that within a few years farm will be counting on their fish crop, just as in they count on wheat, corn and the other regular crops of agriculture. The idea of planting and harvesting sunflower, perch, fresh water mackerel, shad, eels and carp is probably a strange one to the average city man, who has little practical knowledge of farming. but Secretary Red Photo by American Press Association. SECRETARY REDFIELD. field's communication to congress shows that serious thought has been given to the idea. It is also possible that with the great weight in congress attached to the magic word "farmer," the members will give the fish commission a new building with more alacrity. The free seed legislation always meets unanimous approval. Perhaps in some future congress along with the packages of turpul seed and corn there will be sent out under congressional franks letters something like this: "My Esteemed Constituent—I am sending you under separate cover a choice collection of fish eggs, including the roe of the shad, the perch, the dace, the chub and the dogfish. Plant these under fish ponds, where I hope they will grow to be large and luscious flesh." Secretary Redfield has been a consistent booster for the bureau of fisheries since he took office in the department of commerce, and under his administration the country has received several valuable suggestions as to the edibility of fish little known hitherto. On the subject of fish for farms he says to congress: "Nothing has been done toward the improvement of the races of fishes in respect to size, vigor, rapidity of growth and edible qualities. It is certain that the farmers of the farms will assume importance within the next few years, and the farmer should have at his command the best brood stock obtainable and information in regard to its handling and improvement at least equal in reliability to that which he can obtain respecting poultry." FISTS TESTED RECRUITS. Riley Made Sure Men He Recommended Were Fighters. Chicago—TOM Riley of West Fifteenth street was told at the recruiting station that he was too old to fight, although he begged for an opportunity to enlist. "I guess I'm too old to fight," he said, as he twisted his guarid and bony hands "hana" me can send ye some likely lads. Whin that he can cap, and tell ye ther're f'm Tom Riley, take me wor-d they're all be right." That was one day recently. Since then more than twenty-five huskens have come in, saying they were "recruited" by Tom Riley. Barring black eyes and bruised faces, they were ideal recruits and gladly accepted. Old Tom himself appeared again at the station and was informed that all of his recruits had been accepted. Shave Renews His Youth. Bridgeville, Del. — Shaved for the first time in fifty years Daniel F. Long, who lives outside of Bridgeville, is expecting to become a regular village "cutup." Long is about eight years old and has not been shaved since he was thirty years old. Long has never visited a large city, nor saw a china, never was on a railroad train, nor seen a pictureshow. He expects to go "movie" and plans to visit Philadelphia on the next expedition. SUBSTITUTES FOR MONEY. Trader Will Take Almost Anything In Lieu of It Cottonwood Falls, Kan.—Robert Younggreen, a merchant in the little town of Thurman, a trading point in the southeastern part of this county, twenty miles from the nearest railroad point, has a habit of recalling pioneer days. If money is not forthcoming for merchandise secured at the store Younggreen is not backward in accepting substitutes. Coyote scalp, gopher scalp, crow eggs and crow heads are his favorites. A coyote scalp is accepted as $1, a gopher at 5 cents and cow heads a cent aple. The county bounty is the county seat explain the unusual "money" accepted. When Younggreen has a good supply on hand he mails or brings them to the office of the county clerk and is paid the legal bounty, the same value as he has already paid out to his friends. DID HIS BEST TO ENLIST. Patriotic Youth Placed Small Cotton Pad Under Each Heel. Albany, N. —Trying to boost his five feet three inches up to the stand-ard required for military service, Willis Hartman, a patriotic youth from Glenwood, near here, tried a form of elevation that almost got by the United States marine corps recruiting officers here. He went through with a flaw until he stripped to be examined for scars, when the doctor discovered several layers of adhesive plaster and a small cotton pad under each heel that gave a "French heel effect" to the would be warrior. When it was removed he lacked one inch of meeting the required height. "Don't want to be a slacker," so I tried to be slacker," said Hartman when he was rejected. "The schem would be all right, too," he added, "if I could only make it stick." REFUSE TO FIGHT. Adventists Declare Religion Bara Them From Battles. Washington.-Seventh Day Adventists have notified the war department that their religion will not allow them to participate in the war between the United States and Germany. The executive committee of the North America can division conference sets forth that, although believing in the principles upon which this government is founded and acknowledging that it should receive the support of its citizens, the Adventists are "compelled to decline participation in acts of war and bloodshed when the duties enjoined upon us by Our Dear Master toward our encores and toward all mankind." GIRL NOT LEFT BEHIND HIM Soldier Said Goodby, but she, In Fighting Garb, Followed. Pittsburgh—Disgusted as a soldier in the hope of being near her sweetheart, Marlon Nestor, eighteen, of Woodlawn, rode on the Eighteenth regiment troop train in times before she was discovs of Woeeping she was placed aboard a train for home. Lieutenant Ottman W. Freeborn of Company K, his suspicions excited by the appearance of one soldier, took off the suspect's hat. Long brown half fell about the shoulders and face of a pretty but frightened girl. Miss Nestor said that when Stewart Walton, of Woodlawn, called with his regiment she wanted to go too, but he bade her goodby and left. She decided to follow. DR.

Y.-The regents of the university of the state, with the approval of Governor Whitman, authorized the commissioner of education, John H. Finley, to make a brief visit to France for the purpose of seeing the schools and observing what they are doing for the nation in war time.

Omaha, Neb.-An appeal to farmers and others throughout this territory to refrain from shooting at balloons was issued by Captain H. J. B. McElgin of the balloon corps at Fort Omaha, who announced that such acts subject the perpetrators to severe penalties. Many balloons are being sent up from Fremont for the purpose of training air service. In recognition McElgin said shooting at these balloons seemed to have become popular. Sees His First Show. Blufton, Ind.-J. W. Wetrick came to this country from Germany thirty-five years ago, settling at Vera Cruz, a village east of here. In all of this time he never left his home town until recently, when, accompanied by a daughter, he visited relatives at Wolcott, Ind. On his way home he stopped at Fort Wayne and witnessed a show, the first of his life. He said he enjoyed his first ride on an interurban car and the "sights" on the short journey. THE APPEAL. MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY THIEVES IN CONVENTION DEMAND REFORM AID They Seek a Chance to Turn Over a New Leaf in Russia. Petrograd. - A mass meeting of thieves was recently held at Rostoff-on-the-Don to demand a share in the new freedom and a chance to turn over a new leaf. The chief of the local militia and the president and several members of the Council of Workman's and Soldiers' Deputies were present on invitation. Practically all branches of the profession of thievery were represented, and several of the most accomplished members made speeches in which they outlined the difficulties confronting them and declared that it was impossible to return to honest pursuits without the help and support of the community. The speakers complained that recently the population had risen against them and in some instances went so far as to lynch some of their brothers. Chief of Militta Raimikoff asked for help and support by the people in aiding the efforts of the thieves at reformation. One of the bystanders complained that he had been relieved of his purse containing 6 rubles. The thieves roundly protested that it was not the work of a professional and took up a collection to reimburse the victim. WOMAN PLAYED HEROIC PART IN THE CIVIL WAR Gave Husband and Sons and While They Were Away Diligently Cultivated Plantation. Charleston, S. C.—During the first days of that most lamentable conflict that we now know as the civil war a little woman in this state gave her husband and their four grown sons to fight for the cause that to her seemed just. She was not belligerent; she was brave. A few years later a neighbor brought her word that all but the youngest boy had been killed, says Hapsburg Liebe of the Vigilantes. “你不应该 have sent them all,” said this neighbor. “You should have kept two of those boys at home.” “If I had a dozen to send I would have sent them,” the little woman replied very readily, very calmly. “And I know that my men went down in their boots, distinguished service. You see, I know my men.” The youngest boy returned. He was a captain, and not a captain merely by coursey. As he rode through the old plantation he saw to his intense surprise that it was in a fair state of cultivation and that foodstuffs had taken the place of cotton. He had expected to find those broad acres filled with weeds and brats. As soon as he had proudly greeted his mother and been in turn proudly greeted by her, he spoke of this. “That was my part,” she told him. “You couldn't fight without having something to eat, could you?” It was then that he noted the marks of toll on her hands, and he knew that the worthful old negroes had not done all the work. He brought his heels together in the barn. He lifted his hand to the rim of his hat. “Mother,” he said, not very steadily, “I salute you, the greatest soldier of us all!” SPRING DIET RIVALS ZEPPS Substitute For Spinach Kill One, Injures Several. London. England is badly in need of green spring foods, and all kinds of suggestions have been made, some of which have been entrusted to enterprising discoverer wrote to the newspapers the other day that rhubarb leaves, thoroughly boiled, made an excellent substitute for spinach. A coroner's inquest was held over the body of a man who sampled the substitute. Another victim was a prescriber, family is seriously ill. Similar cases are reported from all parts of the country. READJUSTS NOAH'S ARK. Little English Girl Moved by One Legged British Officer. London.—A small English girl was introduced at tea to an officer who had lost a leg in action. After observing him carefully and thoughtfully she went to her nursery and, returning with her Noah's ark, dumped the managerie on the floor and proceeded to break one leg on each animal. When she was asked why she did it the little girl replied: "Legs are awfully useless things. The animals all have one too many." BIG RUSH TO AVOID RAISE IN HAIR CUTS Greensburg, Pa.—A recent Monday held the record for hair cuts in Greensburg. On wash day 3,000 men went to the barbers and told them to cut their hair according to certain styles. This rush came through the fact that the barbers raised the price for a hair cut to $5 cents and Monday was the last day of the quarter rate. It is estimated that $750 was paid for hair clipping, with a total of $300 saved to the ultimate cuttees. Defective Page SUBJECT TO DRAFT Ten Million Men Between Twenty-one and Thirty. MILLION IN NEW YORK STATE Figured on Basis of About 10 Per Cent of Estimated Population of Country, Between 103,000,000 and 104,000,000. All Will Have to Fill-Out Registration Blanks. Washington.-According to a statement issued by Director Sam L. Rogers of the bureau of the census, department of commerce, there are estimated the United States at the present time, the United States at the twenty-one men between the ages of twenty-one and thirty, inclusive. This number represents very nearly 10 per cent of the estimated population of the country-between 103,000,000 and 104,000,000. The table below shows for the United States, for the states and for the leading cities the numbers of males between the ages of twenty-one and thirty, inclusive, on July 1, 1917. The figures for that date are estimated on the assumption that the annual number increase since 1910 in each state has been the same as the average annual numerical increase between 1900 and 1910. July 1, 1917 (estimated) United States 10,787,900 Alabama 202,900 Arizona 24,700 Aransas 156,500 California 362,500 Colorado 160,900 Connecticut 123,600 Delaware 20,100 State of Columbia 37,400 Florida 65,300 Georgia 255,400 Idaho 61,800 Illinois 629,500 Indiana 255,500 Iowa 199,000 Kansas 175,500 Kentucky 302,200 Louisiana 171,900 Maine 63,000 Maryland 121,500 Massachusetts 265,400 Michigan 388,100 Minnesota 244,700 Mississippi 175,100 Missouri 315,000 Montana 73,300 Nebraska 129,400 Nevada 15,500 New Hampshire 36,800 New Jersey 320,000 New Mexico 41,500 New York 1,068,000 North Carolina 194,400 North Dakota 90,000 Obo 494,200 Oklahoma 213,500 Oregon 198,100 Pennsylvania 167,400 Rhode Island 60,200 South Carolina 137,100 South Dakota 129,500 Tennessee 195,600 Texas 420,200 Utah 46,200 Vermont 20,900 Virginia 186,400 Washington 217,400 West Virginia 141,500 Wilmington 229,500 Wyoming 85,000 Cities' quota.

The blank cards are used to answer the questions, which will embody all the information which the government desires of each individual. Commercial travelers and others within the ages of twenty-one and thirty, inclusive, who happen to be absent from their homes on registration days are required to procure cards wherever they are to meet date and mail them to the county clerks in their home registration districts. MOSQUITO NETS IN: WAR. Contract For 600,000 Yards Let to Norwalk Firm. Norwalk, Conn.—The difference between old time and present day methods of going to war is strikingly illustrated by an order for 600,000 yards of cotton netting received from the government by a lace works here. The netting will be used to protect from mosquitoes the army and navy forces stationed in warm climates. It will cost the government about $300,000. The force is to be increased largely and the factory run twenty-four hours a day. By so doing it is hoped to complete the order by September next. TON OF POTATOES BY MAIL Divided into Small Packages and Thus Sent Forward. Othello, Wash.—A ton of potatoes, packed in forty packages, was received by H. J. Tipton in the mall recently. The shipment came from Marengo, and the total postage was $21.60. The consignor of the potatoes is postmaster at Marengo. The office being in the third class, the postmaster receives his compensation from the cancellation of postage, when he had cancelled the stamps their value reverted to his salary, which enabled him to deliver the produce at the destination without cost to himself. State Hounds to Hurst Wolves. Helena, Mont.—Mont. will hunt wolves with Russian bounds. Wallis Hudekoper, a member of the state live stock commission, has presented a pack of huge dogs to the state. They will be distributed among the counties and bred until every hunter has a hound. GREAT AMERICAN GAME THIS YEAR, GARDENING Postal Card to Your Congressman Will Bring You Abundant Seed. Washington. — The great American game of 1917 is going to be gardening. By midsummer anybody over eight years old who hasn't learned how_to raise foodstuffs on whatever land lamb happens to be handy will feel as lonely as a tourist in a foreign land who can't speak the language, says Rennette Lovewell of the Vigilantes. Villagers especially are interested, and little back yard plots that have hitherto yielded only a dozen or so radishes, a few anemic tomatoes and a crop of sunflowers are going to be the clothesline has to be moved down and the hydrangea tube be moved around to the front of the house. Potatoes, turnips and cabbages will be stored away for winter use and peas, string beans, corn, tomatoes and lima beans canned. Nowadays there need be no worry about the jinx in the jars that use to make fruit and vegetables spoil. The department of agriculture and the state colleges send for the asking such clear and concise directions for successful canning that with the wash boiler and a supply of glass jars ten-year-old Susie can "put up" enough fruit and vegetables to see the whole family through until spring. Little bit of ground in the back yard will be planted and tended, will scare Friend Wolf and old Mr. High Cost of Living away from the front door in a hurry. Fruit and vegetables are the healthiest sort of diet anyway, and with flour and "shortening" soaring to unheard of prices, canned fruits make an appetizing substitute for cakes and pies. A postal card to your congressman requesting seeds will bring an abundant supply in the mail, and the experts at Washington are glad to send practical advice about how to make these seeds yield real eatable crops. The great American game of 1917, as we said, is going to be gardening. Batter up! Play ball! AFTERNOON TEA OF BRITON THREATENED City of London Alone Serves Million Teas a Day Seven, Days a Week. a Week. London. — One of England's most cherished institutions was menaced with destruction in the nation wide crisis over shortage of breadstuffs. It is the afternoon tea, not the beverage, but the institution itself. Lord Devonport's declaration as food controller the one meatless day a week had been because of British tendency to replace flesh food with breadstuffs and his warning that rationing might be near unless there was an immediate reduction in consumption of bread and cake brought about the crisis on the afternoon tea question. From the food controller's office it was declared that if everybody in England ate the two ounces less of bread each day the food problem would probably be solved. At least that amount of cake or ice cream is consumed in England's fordwork most every day. Some bold spirits in England have already been writing to the Times suggesting abandonment of tea, but the idea is revolutionary. London alone serves a million teas a day seven days a week. The trains from Liverpool to London stop at Leeds—for tea and this despite shortage of cars and power and necessity of speedy transportation. Business houses throughout England halt work for tea. Tea shops every afternoon resemble the marmalade crush on the New York subway. Lord Devonport's most apparent appeal for bread saving declared picturesque that every loaf saved is as valuable as a shell. BATTLES WITH WOLVES. Pack Attacks Veterinarian on Lonely Road, and He Shoots. Crane, Mo.-C. L. Egbert, a veterinarian, of Crane, had an encounter with a pack of wolves near Garber. He was driving along a lonely road in a cart when he came upon the wolves, which had just attacked and brought down the wolves. Mr. Egbert fired into the pack with his revolver, killing one. The others immediately attacked the horse. The largest wolf leaped on the cart and was shot. Urging his horse to a gallop, Mr. Egbert drove down the road to a point where he could safely reload his revolver. When he returned to the scene the wolves had fled. He brought the slain wolves into Crane. Girls Making Own Dresses. Sloux City, In.-High school girls of this city are designing and making their own dresses at a saving of from $10 to $25 on each gown. All the girls have to pay for is the material. Teaching them how to make the dresses is part of the education given them in the public high schools. When done the girls may either wear or sell them. The seventy girls are already taking the course first year. M. G. Clark, superintendent of city schools, is heartily in favor of the plan. --- PUBLICITY BUREAU LIBERTY LOAN OF 1917 R. W. WOOLLEY, DIRECTOR WHAT IS A LIBERTY LOAN BOND? A Liberty Loan Bond is a solemn payment made by the States to pay at maturity the amount to be loaned to the holder thereof, and to pay interest semi-annually each year from the date of the issuance of the bond until it is fully paid annually. WHAT IS THE SECURITY FOR A WHAT IS THE SECURITY FOR A LIBERTY LOAN BOND? LIBERTY LOAN BOND? The faith and honor of the United States, backed by all of the resources of the nation and the American people. The Loan Bond is a mortgage on all the funds, powers of the government and all of the resources of the American people. WHAT IS THE NATURE OF A LIBERTY LOAN BOND. There are two kinds of Liberty Loan Bonds. Bearer Bonds are to be issued in denominations of $50, $100, $500 and $1,000. These Bearer Bonds, are made payable to bearer, have interest coupons attached which are detached by the bank when the interest installments they require are due, and can be cashed at any bank the same as a United States treasury note. Registered bonds are to be issued, who are registered as to both principal and interest, and nominations of $100, $500, $1,000, $500, $000 and $100,000; checks for the amount of interest due will be mailed out semi-annually to the holders of these registered bonds. WHAT ARE THE TERMS OF A LIBERTY LOAN BOND? Liberty Loan Bonds of the first issue of $2,000,000,000 are to bear date of July 20, 2000, and to run for thirty years, except the right to pay them reserves the right to pay them after years after date. If this right is not exercised by the government fifteen years from date, the bonds will run through the next five years. These bonds bear interest at 3½ per cent per annum, and the interest is payable semi-annually on the 15th day of December and the 15th day of June in each year. WHAT SPECIAL ADVANTAGES HAVE THESE LIBERTY LOAN BONDS? One especial advantage no other bonds, national, state, municipal or corporate, have is that if the United States durably have a continuance of this war shall issue other bonds the higher rate of interest, the holders of the Liberty bonds have the right to exchange their Liberty bonds for bonds bearing the higher rate of interest, dollar for dollar. They are non-taxable. If your city, county and state taxes are three mills on the dollar, a not unusual tax, these bonds are equivalent to ordinary corporate bonds or other investments bearing 6% in addition to federal tax which war conditions may later make necessary will affect these bonds. The only tax these bonds are subject to is the inheritance tax, which applies to all property of all kinds whatsoever. HOW ARE LIBERTY BONDS OBTAINED? Blank forms of applications for the purchase of these bonds can be obtained from the Treasury Department, any state or reserve bank, any national, state or any bank, any express of fire and any postal, the United States. Any bank or postmaster will aid applicant in filling out his blank and the other acts necessary to obtain these bonds. It is not necessary to advertise these bonds to sell the whole issue, but it is earnestly desired that this loan shall be a popular loan, a loan by and from the people at large of the United States, and not from banks, trust companies and financiers. To the bonds are to be issued of small determinations, and subscribers for small amounts are to be supplied before the subscribers for large amounts are granted their full subscription. IS IT PATRIOTIC TO PURCHASE THESE BONDS? Yes; every American who subscribes to the justice of the course of United States in entering and conducting in should subscribe to the Liberty Loan Bond issue to his or her financial ability. Every American who subscribes to the belief that an American should by his or her country should subscribe to the Liberty Loan Bond issue. Every American who loves America and is jealous of America's honor should subscribe to the Liberty Loan Bond issue. The real success of the effort to be more determined by the number of Americans participating in it than by the amount paid. The spirit of the nation is going to be judged abroad, especially by our enemies, more by the number of its American men and women who support bond issue than by the mere amount of money subscribed. YOUR TRISTIC DUTY—BUY A LIBERTY LOAN BOND. A LIBERTY LOAN BOND IS A MORTGAGE OF THE UNITED STATES. REMEMBER THE LUSITANIA AND BUY A LIBERTY LOAN BOND. WHY "LIBERTY LOAN"? The $5,000,000,000 bond issue of this year is named "The Liberty Loan of because it is to be a loan from a free people to be used in freeing the world. It is the loan of a liberty-loving people to be devoted to the establishment of liberty in Europe and on the high seas. It is the loan of the great democracy of the New World to redress the wrongs of the New World and the cause of democracy of the Old. $2.40 PER YEAR NO YELLOW PERIL Terauchi Says War Binds America and Japan. RELATIONS NOT ENDANGERED. Baron Goto Says He Hopes Nations Will Find Principles on Which to Base Abiding Relations of Mutual Trust and Confidence—Greetings Cabled to President Wilson. Tokyo, Japan—"By the participation of the United States in the war ourties are strengthened," declared Premier Terauchi at the first dinner of the premier Terauchi at the first dinner of the history of their intercourse have the two countries come to such a pass as to endanger cordial relationship and he went on to say: "We are one of joining our resources in classifying a common and obdurate foe in the cause of world peace. The friendly relations of the two countries should Photo by American Press Association. PREMIER TERATCHI. be cemented more strongly than ever by the combined efforts of both govern- ments and peoples." Among the 300 members present were many of the most prominent men in Japanese public life. Viscount Kakao, ex-minister of justice, presided and the principal speech was made by Baron Goto, ex-minister of communi- cations. Baron Goto said: "There are few questions of such vital moment to the welfare of mankind as the relations of Japan and the United States. The era of the Pacific promises to surpass that of the Mediterranean or the Atlantic. All the forces of the east and west will meet. Will they unite or clash? I believe it lies in the power of the United States and Japan to answer that question, on which the future happiness and progress of the world will depend. For this reason the relations between Japan and the United States are of supreme importance. With the awful responsibility that they owe to mankind, will Japan and the United States work hand in hand or will they turn their backs on each other? I hope the two nations will find principles on which to base relations of mutual trust and consularity. Other speakers were Prince Tokugawa, president of the house of peers; Count Okuma, ex-premier, Baron Shibusawa, chairman of the Tokyo Bankers' association; Post Wheeler, who is United States charge d'affaires at Tokyo; George H. Seldmore, United States consul general at Yokohama. After the dinner greetings were cabled to President Wilson. HYMN GIVES WARNING Music Box Tells Autoist When They Reach High Speed. Taylor, S. C. — Green D. Poole, a clerk in the Southern railway depot, claims to have invented a device which is intended to prevent accidents to automobiles. The working of the attachment is simple and is explained by Poole as follows: "While the car is running fifteen miles on the motor, at twenty-five miles a green bulb is lit. When the driver begins to bat 'em out around sixty per a music box under the seat begins to play Nearer My God to Thee." ALMOST EVERYBODY IS DOING SAME THING San Francisco. — Jesse Lillenthal, president of the United railways of San Francisco, declared that he might be called the man who put the "con" in economy. He stated that five years ago he figured he had enough money to buy the wolf at bay and decided not to pay another cent as long as he lives. His family halled this plan, and Lillenthal asserts they have performed their part not to let him be disappointed by finding any surplus on the first day of January each year. J. Q.

The following letter is self-explanatory. St. Paul, Minn., March 30, 1917. Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, National Association for the Advancement of Colored people, New York City Dear Dr. DuBois: The colored people of the United States are passing through one of the most dangerous periods of their existence. Surrounded by foes without, some of whom come as wolves in sheep's clothing, pretending to be friends, the most subtle enemy is the foe within, the creatures who are willing to compromise with the outer enemy and barter away the rights of American citizenship. There is no need to write a long statement of the many dangers which beset the colored American, as the conditions are well-known to every thinking man. In order to do in a humble way what I can to change conditions I am sending $5.00 to be the nucleus of a fund which I trust the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will endeavor to raise for the purpose of fighting any jim-crow army legislation which may bob up in the congress which convenes April 2. Bills for a segregated West Point and other pernicious measures will no doubt be introduced. Such infamous legislation should be fought to a finish and the N. A. A. C. P. is the organization to do the work. The money sent is to be used as directed and for no other purpose whatever. Yours for Americanism, J. Q. ADAMS, Editor THE APPEAL.

Dear Mr. Adams: Your contribution of five dollars "to defeat any fimcrow army and navy legislation which may bob up in Congress" is gratefully acknowledged and will be applied to the salary of the legislative agent we have employed to watch for the introduction of such legislation in the present Congress. It goes without saying that the N. A. C. A. P. will oppose any and all legislation which further restricts or abridges the civil rights of colored people in any respect. I hope your initiative may persuade many others to contribute like amounts. Very truly yours, (Signed) ROY NASH, Secretary.

"Not until the United States has given self-government to the women can it blaze the way for democracy," declared Carrie Chapman Catt, president of the National Women's Suffrage Association, in an address before the Mississippi Valley Suffrage Conference at Columbus, Ohio. She criticized the United States for posing in the world as the champion of democracy when "it is only a democracy for half the people." Mrs. Catt was relentless in her charge that "ours is a democracy that doesn't 'democ.'" "We had better blot the mote from our own eyes before we go forth and want to blot it from the Prussian's eye," she said, declaring further that the United States has no right to talk about "making the world safe for democracy" as long as it believes in drawing the sex line. "There is nothing more illogical," she said, "than to insist that man have the divine right to rule over women and say at the same time that kings haven't divine right to rule over men. "Ours is not a true democracy. The battle of democracy won't be won in this country until we rebaptise our nation and re-establish real democracy. "The national government says woman suffrage must come by states and not by congress. Congress can declare war and conscript eur sons, seize our food and clothes, but it can not grant the underlying principle of democracy. It is a curious thing. "It is a shame that under the Stars and Stripes the women should still be struggling for recognition. Everybody in England believes women there will have full suffrage by Christmas. The followers of George III. have beaten the followers of George Washington in the race." Now let's do a little figuring. If it is true that the U. S. is only a democracy for half the people, as Mrs. Catt states, and we add the 12,000,000 colored people who are debarred from the benefits of democracy, that means that 62,000,000 of the 100,000,000 inhabitants are shut off from SOME OF the rights and immunities of citizenship and only 48,000,000 rule 100,000,000. If that does not mean autocracy, what is it? The problem is so simple that a child in the kindergarten could figure it out. "CONSISTENCY, THOU ART A JEWEL." The Chicago Tribune, noted for its inconsistency and illogical reasoning, has an article on Home Rule for Ireland and a free Poland. It also says: "We can find plenty of reasons for insisting that the war shall free the Armenians from the Turks, shall give THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgment the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than the world, the countenance the hearts of friends 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. me this demands true faith and ready hands; does not kill; cannot buy; a will; who will not lie; demagogue atteries without winking! live above the fog thinking. — J. G. Holland. Greece a republic, Russia a democracy, Belgium an assurance of integrity, France a promise of security, and that it shall enable the statute of Liberty in New York harbor to shine undimmed. "We do not ask that our allies free the Moroccanis, the Hindus, or the Koreans, but it seems within reason to ask that they give Home Rule to the Irish and thus help the United States in one of its own local problems." Why does not the Tribune go the full length in democracy and ask freedom for the Moroccanis, the Hindus and the Koreans? Is it because their complexions are a trifle darker than the other nationalities mentioned? "But in a war which elects democracy as the principle there ought to be a different condition in some of the lands which are allied to the principle. The United States, which in a real sense is about to fight for the security of the United States, and in equally real sense is about to fight for the principle of democracy, would fight better if the allies to which it is joined were better established in consistency." Speaking of consistency, the Tribune could do a great work along that line by advocating justice for the colored American citizens who are insulted, and oppressed by the state governments of the South and whose lives are never safe from the murderer Southern mob. But instead it has not been a very long time since this same Tribune advocated the stripping from the colored citizen the few rights he now enjoins. "Consistency, thou art a jewel." RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES. That valiant defender of the rights of the colored people, John Mitchell, Jr., has an editorial in his paper, the Richmond Planet, which is a gem. We reproduce it in full: Dr. H. B. Frissell has issued a patriotic address to the colored people of the country and from every standpoint save one, it is an admirable production. We are disposed to take issue with him, however, when he says: "As Dr. Washington and Dr. Moton have proved by their lives of quiet, unpretentious service, the colored man is going to secure recognition, not by demanding his rights, but by deserving them." A right is a thing to be demanded; a privilege, a thing to be deserved. If Dr. Frissell had said that the colored man is going to secure recognition by demanding his rights and by deserving them, we would understand fully that he recognized that the citizen of color is entitled to every right and every privilege enjoyed by any other citizen. We pause to remark that the colored people in this country will never come unto their own as long as they believe that they are inherently inferior and that they are not manly enough to deserve their rights, and after deserving their rights, to demand them. The badge of servility, better known by the look of cowardice and the halting attitude of submission to any wrong, is what is handicapping us more than anything else. Colored people who could lead a charge at El Caney and San Juan Hill should walk upright, and, while being respectful and obliging, should demand their rights when necessary and "dig deep in their jeans" to secure the necessary legal rights which will make them respected by their enemies in the courts of this country. Manhood is what is wanted and not servile submission. A blooded white man hates a cringing citizen, be he black or white, and he admires manhood, self respect and courage in a Negro as who in the conscii of his duty dares to world, with ignorant, nt, may condemn, of relatives may be arts of friends grow of duty done shall e applause of the ences of relatives or much so as he does in an Englishman, Frenchman or a German. The colored man is going to obtain his rights, Dr. Frissell, by demanding them and by deserving them. Selah! THE GUARDIAN ON DR. FRISSELL Commenting on the editorial in the Richmond Planet, which is printed in this issue, objecting to one of the points in Dr. Frissell's recent memorial, the Guardian says: "Thus sash in very truth the Planet. "We rise also to deny direct that the 'quiet service' lives of Booker Washington or of Russa Moton secured recognition of rights. The most striking thing about the race-leadership career of Dr. Washington was that coincident with it the greatest period of loss of citizenship and of legal debarment from rights even known in any race and especially during the time Dr. Washington preached most pronouncedly the doctrine of 'quietly deserving' rights. No further exposition of that matter by us is any longer needed. "We warn Dr. Frissell against reviving the Booker Washington no-egitation issue. Dr. Washington's own friends do not relish or desire it." THE NEW HAMPTON MOVEMENT THE NEW HAMPTON MOVEMENT. The meaning of the sudden "Hampton Patriotic Movement" now being pulled off in Chicago, Detroit and other Northern cities isn't quite clear. THE APEAL has received a number of letters and newspaper clippings from the daily papers bearing on the subject and glean from them the idea that there is something queer about the "movement." The papers state that one Dr. Charles F. Taylor of New York, one of the leaders in the "movement" who is now making speeches in Chicago where the segregation question has reached an acute stage, has on several occasions asserted to white audiences: "The negro wants segregation as much as or more than the white man." This statement is not only false, but it is dangerous and unfriendly doctrine to be disseminated by the representative of an institution which claims to stand for "Christian" training and "uplift" and all that sort of stuff. The writer of one of the letters received by THE APEAL, states that she visited the Hampton exhibit at the Hotel La Salle where she was in formed by the charming lady who has charge of the exhibit, that "the DARKIES are making great progress." What does it mean? FAILURE TO FIGHT COSTLY. That strong defender of true Americanism, the Cleveland Gazette, edited by Hon. Harry C. Smith, a man of whom all Americans may well be proud, printed an editorial in a recent issue which is so accurate an exposition of the costly blunder the colored people have made in failing to fight for their rights that we reproduce it. We trust that every reader will read it carefully and ponder over the truths expressed. "It has not been so very many years since the adoption of the war amendments to the Constitution and the beginning of a systematic effort on the part of our enemies to nullify the effect they were expected to have and its subsequent good. Since these efforts at restriction began, they have grown and multiplied rapidly and much of it has been due to our refusal to fight the issues raised with all our resources, before they became operative. In the South disfranchising constitutions have come, separate or "jim-crow" railroad and street cars, "peanut" galleries in theaters for our men and women, separate bars in saloons, "jim-crow" city parks, swimming pools, schools, "jim-crow" indental offices, churches, Y. M. C. A. etc. Indeed, there is apparently a desire for a segregation of the races in Heaven, if some of them ever get there. These things have all crept upon us since emancipation and the elevation to a citizenship supposed to be equal to that of all other Americans. We have lost ground, South and North, because we have not fought, and when we have resisted, have lacked leadership, while other supposed leaders have played into the hands of our enemies. As a race, we have been burlesques, abused and humiliated by the thoughtless (some, members of the race), as well as by those host to our interests, simply because there was lacking proper resentment on our part and a determination to take a stand for our rights with all the power at our command. The world loves a MAN, a fighter! on who thinks as much of himself as any other like creature on earth. To such aggressive MEN, unjust restitions will in the end yield and break down, because they will ever refuse to recognize them. In cases of luxuries of life such MEN will not accept the limitations though they greatly desire them and have the price demanded. In the case of necessities, they will fight restrictions and limit, as far as is within their power, the demand for them. A MAN CAN BE FREE IN A FREE COUNTRY ONLY WHEN HE RETAINS THE RESPECT OF HIS FELL LOW CITIZENS TO THE EXTENT HE RECEIVES THE SAME TREATMENT FROM THEM THEY EXPECT FROM HIM!" A NEEDED WAR MEASURE A NEEDED WAR MEASURE. The government of the United States ought to stop lynching as a needed war measure. As a military necessity, loyal patriotic citizens ought to have a chance for their lives and no man, even though he be immo- cent of crime is safe when the lyncher is abroad. The stern hand of military law ought to descend upon the people who are defying the law and making a mockery of democracy. The daily newspapers often contain "scare heads" and accounts of horrible man burnings, where the victim is drenched with oil and burned at the stake. If some of these papers should get out of the country and fall into the hands of the Germans who have despoiled Belgium or into the hands of the Turks who have massacred the Armenians they might use them as a justification of their atrocities. Loyal patriotic citizens of the United States demand the suppression of lynching and the summary punishment of the lynchers as a needed war measure. The general assembly of the Presbyterian Church of the United States in session at Dallas, Texas, has put its official ban on Sunday sports, the Sunday newspaper, liquor and tobacco. As the meeting is being held in a part of the country where lynching and burning men at the stake is one of the Sunday sports of the mobs which fill up on bad whiskey and squirt tobacco juice. THE APEAL suggests that a resolution denouncing lynching be adopted. Former Alderman Oscar DePriest of Chicago is being tried under an indictment to protect gambling houses in that city. The trial will to a great extent be a spectacular battle between colored attorneys. Attorney Edward S. Wilson, assistant states attorney is to make the opening address for the state. The famous Edward H. Morris will be the chief aid for the defense. It will be a battle royal. Alien enemies are barred from working at the Chicago stock yards under the terms of the proclamation of the President. Already there are more than 7,000 colored men employed there and when the alien enemies go out on June 1, loyal colored men will take their places. The Republics in Congress are fighting the press gag law to a finish. COLORED OFFICERS' RESERVE CORPS. Segregated Training Camp for Colored Citizens Will Be at Des Moines, Ia. Special to THE APBALE Washington, May 23.—The War Department has designated Des Moines, Iowa, as the site for the training of colored officers. The camp will have a limit of 1,250 men and 250 of these will be non-comissioned officers from the colored regular army. The camp will open in June and report about June 5, and instruction beginning about June 18.—Only colored men of good education will be considered. The camp will be under the jurisdiction of the central department. Many applicants will come from Moines and colored man who was barred from the regular camp at Chicago has been ordered to report at Des Moines. LET AGITATION GO ON, SAYS REV. F. J. GRIMKE. Commends Protest by Guardian and Planet—Race Will Protest Till White America Accords the Rights Which Belong Every American Citizen—Daddy American Citizens Under B. T. Washington Polley. (From the Boston Guardian.) Washington, D. C, May 1, 1917. Dear Mr. Trotter: I have just read in the last issue of the Guardian your editorial, including the editorial of Mr. the administrator of the Planet, in which he administers the United States timely rebuke to Dr. Frissell for some things which he says in the last issue of the Southern Workman. Rights Declined Under Washington. It is amazing that at this late day, an American under DECLINE or OUR RIGHTS UNDER WASHINGTON'S POLICY of "quiet, tentious service." that Dr. Frissell should be attempting to revive that pernicious, un-American, unmany, heresy of quiet submission to wrong: "Cry for a directed his prophet to do was: 'Cry for a trumpet, and lift thy voice like a trumpet, and unto my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sine.' And that is what we have been doing, and will continue to do, until White America heeds the message, turns from its own accord to the colored man the rights, which justly belongs to him as much as to any other American citizen. Let Frissell Understand Once and for All. Dr. Frissell had just as well understand now, once for all, that the policy for which he stands, as regards our rights, will never be accepted by the colored man. And the incubation of whites with very little grace from white men, who never think of following it when their own rights are involved. Think Colored Unlike Whites. It is because, after all, they think it is better to give a little of a little different clay, and therefore, it is alright for HIM to QUIETLY SUBMIT TO WHAT WHITE MEN NOT BE EXPECTED TO SUBMIT WOULD NOT SUBMIT TO WITHOUT THE MOST VIGOROUS PROTEST? Put Themselves In Our Place. If some of our white friends would put themselves in the place of colored man, and realize that there is no essential difference between the colored man, and themselves, they would be saved from the foolish things which they recommend at times. Let the Agitation Go On. Let the Planet, let the Guardian, let all the colored newspapers, continue to speak out, and, in every other legit- ition, to give the AGITATION GO ON. It is in vain for Dr. Phelps, or any one else to try to stop it. Yours for equality of rights for all citizens, regardless of race or condi- J. Hon. Richard T. Greener, Late U. S.

THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest.

I am a human being. I do not propose to be cooped up or shut in in my love, but I am to mume geographical streaks or to live on a planet. This planet is small because it is, when one considers the height and depth—the starry height of the human spirit that wavers and waves on Earth, Wagner and Shakespeare, Tolstoi and Mollerte. Though the cathedrals quarrel together and sing praises with their own little foolish national saints, bombs on each other's naves, I take to the great bells ringing in their towers, by the souls of their poets, by the years, by the prayers and songs of the heroes, artists, inventors, by the mothers and the little children. We are all in the same world. We are all in the same world, will not say of any one nation, nor will say of the others; and I will not say of any man what I will not say of myself.

EVERY PERSON who receives the APPEAL is expected to pay for it; and, it is a violation of honesty, honor and law not to do so. THIS APPEAL FOR EVERY ONE, WITHOUT EXCEPTION. Are you, reader, honest, honorable and lawful, thinking about it. There is a law that requires a newspaper who does not wish to do so, but there is a law that compels one to pay for a newspaper if it is received. There are many persons who receive the APPEAL as regularly as it is issued, but who have failed to pay for it. Think about it. Don't stop at thinking about it, either, but kindly come or send to the office that you honestly, honorably, legally own. There is not one single subscriber on our list who is ACTUALLY UNABLE to pay for the paper if the desire to do so is strong enough. There is no desire or intention to offend any one, but if this article is marked with a blue pencil it is to reaffirm you that YOU owe it for THE APPEAL. Please come or send to the office, Court Block, 24 E. 4th street, suite 301-302, third floor, and pay what you owe. Take elevator. Law of Subscription. Few readers of newspapers fully and clearly understand the law governing subscriptions. Below are the decisions of the United States Supreme Court in the subject: Subscribers who give express notice to the contrary give subscription expires, are considered as wishing to renew their subscription. If subscribers order a discontinuance of their periodicals the publisher may continue to send them until all dues are paid. Subscriber continues to take the periodical from the postoffice to which it is directed, or receives from the carrier, he is responsible until he has settled his bill and ordered the paper discontinued. If subscribers move to other places without informing the publisher and the papers are sent to the former address the subscriber is held responsible. If subscribers pay in advance they are bound to give notice at the end of the time if they do not wish to continue taking it, otherwise the publisher is authorized to send it, and the subscriber will be responsible until express notice with payment of all arrearages is made.
