Mexico Will Readily Obtain Loan Through Influence of This Government as Soon as Investigations by Ambassador Fletcher Satisfy President Stable Government Exists. Washington. — Claims against the Mexican government from American citizens for loss of lives and property amount to $475,000,000, and those of foreign governments filed with the state department bring the total against the southern republic to more than $1,000,000,000. These claims have been piling up for the last two years, and it is believed those now presented to the state department represent about all of the valid ones. As a more stable government is established in Mexico American citizens and foreign governments are pressing their demands for payment. The situation is one of the utmost concern, not only to the United States, responsible for our citizens for the settlement of their claims against Mexico for loss of oil property, mines and lives, but also those of foreigners. As to claims of foreign governments, the Photo by American Press Association. HENRY P. FLETCHER. United States has no legal concern, but inasmuch as it assumed control over the situation under the Monroe doctrine it will exert its diplomatic influence to see these claims are paid. American and English capital to the amount of $1,500,000, is invested in Mexico, and in the last three years the revolutions have damaged the mines and oil wells, in addition to piling up claims for the loss of lives of foreigners. The new ambassador from Mexico to this country, Ignacio Bonillas, fully explained the financial needs of his country to President Wilson, when he was received here recently. Since then this government has been considering advancing a loan to Mexico. A member of the administration expresses the opinion that Mexico will readily obtain a loan through the influence of this government as soon as another government by Ambassador Flecher satisfies President Wilson that a stable government exists. No other country will consider a loan to Mexico, and this government will not aid Mexico financially until a stronger government is set up. HE FEARED CONSCRIPTION. Worried Bridesgroom Tries to Kill Wife and Hinself.. Middletown, N. Y.-Fearing he would be conscripted for war and that he would have to leave his seventeen-year-old bride, whom he married on Christmas day, Harry York, twenty-four years old, shot his wife, Anna May, in the head and then fired two bullets into his own brain. Ever since it had been announced that men between twenty-one and thirty might have to go to France York, she would have to answer. She was reading the questions to be answered by those registering for the conscription aloud to him when he suddenly shot his wife and himself. Wolf Pack Rounded Up. Okmulgee, Okla. — Twenty-one gray wolves, the largest pack reported in Oklahoma in years, was rounded up recently twelve miles northeast of Beggs, Okla. by J. A. Scott and Boyce Green. There were two old wolves and nineteen partly grown pups in the pack. Dogs were on earth and the other wolves killed them before the hunters came up. The old wolves and several of the younger ones had to be killed before the hunters could take some of the pups alive. HERO MINUS LEG AND ARM SAVES GIRL, WINS A BRIDE Maimed Expert Swimmer Snatches Miss King From the Surf. New York.—The loss of his left arm and left leg did not prevent Ludger Gagne, Jr., of 20 Wesland avenue, Boston, from being an expert swimmer or from saving Miss Louise King of 25 Salem street, Winchester, Mass., from drowning at Revere Beach last summer and eventually winning her for his bride. When twelve years old, just half his present age, Gagne's swimming and diving records were considered marvelous. Then he fell beneath the wheels of a train and lost a leg and an arm. After his wounds had healed and although Boston harbor was full of whitecaps and storm signals were set he swam without trouble to Boston light, six miles out. Gagne was talking to a life guard at Revere Beach last summer when cries for help came from the water. A girl was struggling a considerable distance from shore. Gagne reached the girl first. She was Miss King. Gagne and Miss King became engaged. Her parents favored the match, but advised the young couple to wait until Louise was twenty-one. They veted the suggestion, however, and were married by Deputy City Clerk Cruise in the municipal building chapel, this city. They Are to Be Drilled In Tactics by the Warden In the State Penitentiary. Lincoln, Neb.—The state penitentiary is to be turned into a military garrison for a part of each day, and the state's prisoners will become soldiers if necessary. Warden Fenton has decided on military drill for practically all the convicts as soon as sham wooden guns can be made. Prison Secretary O'Connell, a member of the First Nebraska regiment in the Spanish-American war, will drillmaster in chief. Should the war with Germany reach such a stage as to become a drill on the citizens of the country Warden Fenton believes the younger prison inmates may be called to the front. He says he is adopting the military drill as one of preparedness. The warden will himself take the training with his charges, and if the convicts are summoned to war he will offer his services. He is popular with the officers they say they would want no better lead than the ones expressed their eagerness to enlist—three-quarters of them—the prison authorities say. There are about twenty former soldiers and sailors in the prison, and these are expected to act as aids to Secretary O'Connell in teaching the war game. The warden says he will see to it that the men back nothing in knowledge. He has issued a call to the three co-workers in the prison that they show their prolaboratory complying with the request of President Johnson with respect to wasting of foods. The penitentiary farm is to be enlarged materially. HOARDING IS UNPATRIOTIC. Boston Man Says Those Who Lay Up Food Are Traitors. Boston—Henry B. Endicott, executive manager of the Massachusetts committee on public safety, issued a statement asserting that the person who hoarded money and large quantities of food should be pointed out as a traitor to his country and to his fellow men." "Certainly nothing could be further from patriotism or helpfulness to other people," he said, "than for a set of men who have money and credit to selfishly purchase an unusual amount of supplies for themselves and by so doing upon their less wealthy neighbors the burden of unnecessarily high prices." Food Grown Along Railroads Durham, N. C. — Vegetable gardens bordering the railroad tracks is a new idea in North Carolina to add to America's food supply in the world war. The Durham and Southern railway, owned principally by the Dukes, wealthy New York tobaccoists, has offered its right of way for planting. It has furthermore offered free seed to encourage the growers. FINDS WEDDING RING LOST FOR SEVEN YEARS Wilmington, Del. - It is not only the proverbial bad penny that frequently turns up, as is the wedding ring. The wedding ring. Seven years ago Mrs. Frank Carey of 1802 Gluh avenue lost her wedding ring in the yard of the house in which she was then living. Recently it was returned to her by the present occupant of the house, who discovered it while planting flowers. MAY EAT OAT BREAD. Bwedes Ask Permission to Sell It Hungar Marches Continue Stockholm—The Bakers' Association of Sweden presented a memorial to the state economic commission setting forth the difficulties of obtaining sufficient rye and wheat flour and asking the authorities to permit and to order them to use a certain proportion of oat or barley flour in bread. The bakers assert that the situation indicates with certainty that such a measure must be eventually resorted to and point out the advisability of doing it now instead of delaying until the time when the proportions of barley and oats must necessarily be greater than would be the case now. A body of female factory workers estimated at 5,000 marched recently in an orderly manner through southern and western Stockholm to the largest local milk company, where they demanded a better distribution of milk and lower prices. Hunger demonstrations continue at various places in the kingdom. METEOR LIKE SEARCHLIGHT Crashes Into Mountains and Illuminates Whole Valley. Bishop, Cal.—Illuminating the upper Owens valley for half a minute like a searchlight in the skies, a meteor of extraordinary size and brilliance raked across from east to west one night and brought up against the high Sierra Nevada. There was a crash that could be heard for miles when the foreign body hit the mountain side far above the floor of the valley. It sounded like the impact of a projectile from a great gun against a fort. Residents were startled by the passage of the mighty streak of blue-white fire through the darkness and again by the loud explosion that followed contained a granite range which stopped it. Then a range of dislodged stones not far from the camp of the Round Valley Tungsten company. MORGAN ON PATROL DUTY. Financier's Son Assigned to Ship. Young Iselin Also Enrolls. New York.—Junius Spencer Morgan, son of J. P. Morgan, who recently received an ensign's commission in the naval coast defense reserve, was called into active service and assigned to duty on a coast patrol boat. Ensign Morgan has always been interested in boats and sailing. Last summer he shipped as an ordinary sea- man on the U. S. S. Maine for the civilian training cruise. Adrian Iselin 2d, son of C. Oliver Iselin, who has sailed many cup defenders to victory, enrolled in the naval reserve, then served in the marine office. Paul Nevin, son of the late abbrett Nevin, called at the naval reserve office to enroll. Mr. Nevin came from Tulsa, Okla. As a member of the civilian crew of the Maine last summer he made a record in gunnery. DOG ADOPTS COYOTES Takes Four Into Her Charge on a Ranch. Santa Ana, Cal.-Four coyote pups have been adopted by a mother dog on the ranch of Arthur Pefey, north of Santa Ana. The coyotes were found in the foothills back of El Modena by Virgil Pritchard, a high school boy, whose dogs fought off the mother coyote while Virgil got away with the little coyotes, Clarence Pefey had a dog with two puppies. The four strangers were put on the ground near the mother and the puppies, who were engaged in partaking of a meal. Ratha bewildered, the coyotes crept to the mother dog. The dog eyed the coyotes, when when they approached she began licking them, and soon the coyotes were just as bushy engaged in eating as were their cousins. CHARLES P. TAFT 2D ENLISTS With Nine Yale Students Enters Artillery Service. New Haven, Conn.—Charles M. Taft 2d, son of William Howard Taft and a junior in Yale college, enlisted for the artillery branch of the regular army with nine other undergraduates. All the enlistments were of students who were not members of the officers training corps of the university and consent of their parents. The squad will go to Fort Myer, Va. The students who were enlisted with Tafte were John M. Anderson, Jr. Cinnamatt; Robert T. Cairns, Overbrook Pa.; George H. Ennis, Jr., Derby, Conn. J. E. Faskel, Altoona, Pa.; Francis N. Humara, Clinton, Mass.; Cyril B. Mothers, Clinton, Mass.; H. Stackpool, Harrison, Pa.; H. S. Porter, Higganum, Conn.; Carl M. Thomas, St. Louis. DROWNS BATHING TOY.

Defective Page A RAILROAD ARMY Will Build Up Lines of Traffic In France. They Will Be Part of Regular Force, and at Head of Each Regiment as Colonel Will Be Engineer Officer of Army—Construction Will Be Main Work. New York—Need for expert railroad men to repair the lines in France is so pressing that an urgent call has been sent out by the railroads war board to the various roads of the country for assistance in organizing nine regiments of railroad men to go at once to France. They will be a part of the regular army, and at the head of each regiment as colonel will be an engineer officer of the army. They will plan of the board call for five construction men, one shop or repair regiment and three operating regiments. Construction will be the work of the men sent over, but the repair and operating needs are hardly immediate. A notice sent out by the railroads war board says: "The French railways are badly run down. They need more or less complete rehabilitation. France has no men who can be spared for this work. She wants all her men at the front. Before we can train men to go into the trenches we must supply France's railroad wants, and we must immediately, immediately, any Men we send must be soldiers, so it will be necessary for the railroad forces to enter the army. "We propose to make up five construction regiments of six companies each to do this rehabilitation. Each regiment will have an engineer officer of the United States army as colonel and another officer from the army as an adjutant. The other officers will be made up of railroad men, except that the commissary will be provided by the United States army. Each lieutenant-colonel will be a chief engineer of one of the same one else of similar experience. The captain will be taken from the engineers of maintenance way, the lieutenants from supervisors or road masters and the noncommissioned officers from track and bridge foremen. The privates will be track laborers. "The pressing need just now is for officers for these regiments. They will require five chief engineers, thirty engineers of maintenance way, ninety supervisors or road masters, sixty track foremen. Each company will have 150 track laborers and fourteen bridge carpenters as private. "The next important requirement of the French railways is for shop forces. They are short of men to repair their locomotives. It is proposed to organize a shop regiment, to be made up the same way as the construction regiments, except that the lieutenant-colonel will be a superintendent of motive power, the captains will be master mechanics, the lieutenants will be shop formen and the noncommissioned officers, the rest of the company will be made up of boltermakers, machinists, blacksmiths and their helpers." TOY GUNS POPULAR. Modeled After Anti-aircraft Weapons Used by Zennelina. Washington.-Teddy bears and miniature anti-aircraft guns are by far the most popular toys in Great Britain, says Consul Wilson in a report from London to the United States bureau of foreign affairs. The toy bears have always been more or less popular, but recent events seem to have created a greatly increased demand for this toy. The toy guns are modeled after the anti-aircraft guns which were brought in commencement by the visits of the Zeppelins. Toys that find the most ready sale are those of a military character, NEW FORM OF "CON" GAME Two Inches of Butter Spread on Sand Sold to Chicago Consumers. Chicago, Ill.—A new form of confidence game has been practiced with success here during the last few days. Several storekeepers and hospitals have reported to the police that they have purchased from agents tubs purporting to contain sixty pounds of butter, but have not found the tubs that the butter extended but one or two inches from the surface and that the rest of their purchase was sand. The tubs were sold for as high as $19.50, making the price of the butter in the neighborhood of $4 a pound. FAVORS DAYLIGHT SAVING. President, However, In Doubt as to Necessary Legislation. Washington. — President Wilson expres- sed his approval of the daylight saving plan to a delegation headed by Representative Borland of Missouri and Marcus Marks of New York, pres- ident of the National Daylight Saving association. The president told them the only question in his mind about legislation whether congress leaders would look up war legislation, to which they have tacitly agreed to limit the session's activities. The subject will be taken up with the leaders. FARM HANDS GET $45 A MONTH, WITH BOARD That's In South Dakota, Where Bumper Crops Are Predicted. Sloux- Falls, S. D.-Because of a shortage of farm hands it has become necessary in many parts of South Dakota for the women and boys of the households and even the girls to work in the fields. So the farmers and their wives and children are hard at work putting in what is believed to be the greatest acreage of spring wheat in the history of the state. With the prospect that prices for foodstuffs will continue high during the war the farmers have decided to increase their crop acreage. With a favorable weather South Dakota will produce this year the greatest crop of foodstuffs in its history. The residents of towns are preparing to have larger vegetable gardens that ever before, so there is every indication that the state will make a new record in crop production this year. Farm hands ready for work demand from $35 to $45 a month and board, and in many instances the farmers pay these prices. Only a few years ago good farm hands could be had from $12 to $20 a month and board, and those who received the higher figure were the envolved of their fellows. NATIVES LOOTED SHIP DRIVEN IN BY A U BOAT Battle Between Crew and Beach Combers, During Which One of Latter Was Killed. New York.—Driven by pitless "tigers of the sea" into the clutches of equally pitless human tigers lurking along the beaches of northern Spain was the fate of the officers and crew of the schooner Phineas W. Sprague, the captain and chief officer of which vessel arrived in an American port on board a passenger liner from Cadiz. According to Captain F. A. Jervis, the Sprague was pursued by a German U. boat while coasting through the bay of Bermuda and was forced to seek refuge inside a narrow mile limit. There the vessel was brought by a treacherous current and thrown on the beach near Carbonares, Spain. No sooner did the residents of that part of King Aifono's domain that the schooner was helpless, declares the captain, then they boarded the vessel in droves and commenced to loot her. A battle between the crew of the schooner and the beach combs ensued, during which one of the latter was killed. The Sprague was a total loss. On board the same vessel which brought Captain Jarvis and his chief officer back to this country were several other survivors of submarine disasters, including Johnson and twenty-one men of the steamship Zward and five men from the schooner Edwin R. Hunt, both of which were destroyed by U boats. OWL MAKES TOWN DARK Alights on Electric Wire, Damaging Lighting Service. Durham, N. C.-A few nights ago about 9:30 o'clock the electric lights of Morgantown, N. C., began flickering and finally went out. It was later interrupted by a significant screech owl was the cause of the fire, losing its life as a forfeit for attempting to alight on an insulator. The bird was shown on the streets of the town. Its wings were scorched from tip to tip and its body was burned by contact with the live wire. When the owl alighted on the insulator the current was started racing to the fire. The line wire was burned in two, and when it fell the current was cut off automatically at the switching station. BREEZE GOT THE MONEY. Any One May Keep Three One-Dollar Bills if He Finds Them. Wichita, Kan.-The wind blew freely the other day in Wichita. Mrs. Sam Sanders of Whitewater, who had shopping, did not close her pocketbook. She walked down Main street and Douglas avenue a five dollar bill and three one-dollar bills were blown out. They rose high in the air, and John Young, a police captain, and others went in pursuit. A block away a negro overtook the "Live." The others had disappeared. The other, to Mrs. Sanders, he returned it, with bow. "Thank you," said she. "You can have the others if you end 'em." DRAFT SONS TO FARM. Fathers Plan Land Purchase to Exempt Boys From Army. Washington—Casting about for ways to keep their sons, who are a little over twenty-one, out of the army, two rich men in upper New York state have Charles B. Smith to know if they farmed and put their boys on them would not that exempt their sons from the draft. They proposed to make their sons superintendents of the farms and thus entitled to exemption, they thought, as "agriculturists." was said that this ruse would not get very far, as neighbors could be depended upon to expose it.

WHAT SPECIAL ADVANTAGES HAVE THESE LIBERTY LOAN BONDS? One especial advantage no other bond national, state, municipal or corporation has is that if the United States during the continuance of this war shall issue other bonds at a higher rate of interest, the holders of these 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 a dollar, a not unusual tax, these bonds or other ordinary corporate bonds or other investments bearing 6½ per cent.

That end bonds are to be issued of small denominations, and subscribers for small amounts are to be supplied to the subscribers for large amounts are granted their full subscription. IS IT PATRIOTIC TO PURCHASE THESE BONDS? Yes; every American who subscribes to the judge of the course of the United States, and those along from banks, trust companies and financiers. That end bonds are to be issued of small denominations, and subscribers for small amounts are to be supplied to the subscribers for large amounts are granted their full subscription.

That end bonds are to be issued of small denominations, and subscribers for small amounts are to be supplied to the subscribers for large amounts are granted their full subscription. Every American who loves America and zealous of America's honor should access the Liberty Loan Bond issue.

It is the loan of the great democracy of the New World to redress the wrongs and support the cause of democracy of the Old. $2.40 PER YEAR MARINES GO FIRST Seasoned Veterans to Be Under Colonel Doyen's Command. MAINLY FROM WEST INDIES. Colonel Doyen, Fifty-eight Years Old, is Graduate of Naval Academy—He Has Seen Service In the Philippines and Orient and In Haiti and Santo Domingo. Washington.—A regiment of veteran United States marines, equipped as regular infantry, will go to France as part of Major John J. Pershing's command. There will be approximately 2,000 men in the regiment, probably the largest numerically that will be engaged on the western front. Colonel Charles A. Doyen, at present commandant of the United States marine barracks in this city, who has been in the service thirty-four years, will command this new American contingent. For the most part the marines will be taken from regiments now on duty in Haiti, Santo Domingo and Cuba. Photo by American Press Association. COLONEL CHARLES A. DOYEN. This means that Secretary Daniels will send the pick of "sea soldiers" with General Pershing's command. Every marine in the contingent will be a veteran who has been frequently in action. The American marines have been characterized as the peer of any fighting force on earth. Colonel Doyen is a graduate of the Naval academy. He is fifty-eight years old, but remarkably active for a man of his years. He has seen service in the Philippines and the orient, in Haiti and Santo Domingo and in other places wherever marines have been in action. Secretary Daniels would give no inking as to when the big regiment will be sent to the Atlantic. This information will be given. Just as the departure of General Personnel his staff and the force which is to follow them will be closely guarded by the military authorities. SCHEME TO BEAT U BOAT. Connecticut Man Would Corral Torpedoes With Magnet. Waterbury, Conn.-Fred Hemmings has invented a device to offset the danger of the torpedo in its attack from the submarine or otherwise. The device electric arrangement of great magnetic power allows the ship, which will attract the torpedo, bring it to the side of the ship attacked and then lift it to the deck without exploding it. Mr. Hemmings believes it is destined to revolutionize sea fighting and will make vessels practically immune from attack. Lawrence Addicks, chairman of the team, is now considering its adoption for Theodore Roosevelt has congratulated Mr. Hemmings in a private letter. PLOWING DAY AND NIGHT. Tractors and Searchlights Used to Help Cayuga County Farmers. Hap Ciyoga County Farmers Auburn, N.Y. — The Ciyoga County Home Improvement committee began intensive food production on the farms of the county by putting out tractors which will plow continuously day and night. Searchlights have been installed, and three crews will go with each machine, working in eight hour shifts. The committee charges farmers $2.50 per acre to plow and $3.50 an acre to plow and fit the land, which covers cost of operation and maintenance. PLAN HOW TO MAKE AN EGG WEIGH MORE Simple as adding two and two is the plan launched in Chicago by the American Poultry association to increase the nation's meat supply by 100,000,000 pounds in four months. Raise chickens, is the answer. Lone egg doesn't weigh much, but in the same time, the same weight formed into a chicken weighing three pounds.

TRIBUNE VOMITS AGAIN. The following from the Chicago Tribune seems like a voice trom the tomb. It is on a par with some, of the stuff printed by the copperhead Tribune before and during the slave- holders’ rebellion. The writer may have been born since 1870 but his think machine was evidently cast in one of the left over molds of 1850. It 4s headed: BLACK MAN, STAY SOUTH! ‘They say down south that “niggers are all right in their place,” but where is that place? South? At. Memphis, Tenn, a Negro was recently burned alive. North? At East St. Louis, IL, ‘Negroes are mobbed, beaten, and run out of town. ‘We taunt the south with race preju- dice when it burns a “bad nigger,” but just see how we northerners detest even “good niggers!” The real race prejudice is ours. Our very philan- thropists betray it. They saw to a black man, “God ‘bless you, good-by,” whereas thé south says, “—— —— GOD GIVE US MEN. God give us men! A time like this dema Strong minds, great hearts, true faith « Men whom the lust of office does not ki Men whom the spoils of office cannot bu ‘Men who possess opinions and » will; Men who have honor—men who will no ‘Men who can stand before » demagogue And damn his treacherous flatteries wit Tall men, sun crowned; who live above | In public duty and in private thinking. —..G.

Or put it this way: ‘The northerner is a great friend of the Negro but not of a Negro; the southerner is a great friend of a Negro, but not of the Negro. | Prof. Munsterberg once described the race as “passive at every turn of fortune,” yet within the last year |Negroes by the thousand have actively undertaken to find a place for them- ‘selves, “They have come north. It ‘was a huge mistake. They escape bar- barous punishment for their occasional ‘erimes while winning no appreciation for their habitual virtues. They are disliked. When their presence be- |comes a burden, as at Kast St. Louis, ‘they are abused. It is on these terms only that they enjoy the longed for “likerties of the north”—its “social equality,” for in- jstance. But do they really enjoy that? jOur observation goes to show that the Negro is happiest when-the white race ‘asserts its superiority, provided that sympathy and understanding accom pany the assertion. Not long ago « [Virginian noticed a very gloomy black porter in a northern hotel, and, learn fing that the Negro had come from Virginia, safd, “You —- — black fool go back to Virginia!” The repls lreveated much: “0, Cunnel, dem's ae [rust kind wuds dat’s been spoken tc me since Ah come up noff!” Southerners insist that “the nigger must be kept down.” They enforce the color line. Yet they will work side Joy side with Negroes, befriend them {in adversity, and overlook their minor failings. Gradually they are working toward the results suggested in the jcarton on this page. ‘They do not hate Negroes. In their heart they. like them. Said Dooley: “I'm naught troubled whin the naygur is amon's his oppressors, Hinnessy- Wha {throubles me is whin he falls into th hands iv his liberators.” In the same city where the forego Jing vomit was spewed up, Miss So phronisba Breckenridge, of the Uni versity of Chicago, a Southern womar and one of the famous Kentucks {family of Breckenridge, said: “The ery has gone up from a larg number of people: What are we going to do with these ‘dreadful men ané women’ who are coming to us from the South? 1 say we should be here to welcome them, to help them, to give them a chance to make Chicago a bet ter home than they could find in the South.” “CONSISTENCY, THOU ART A JEWEL.” The Chicago Tribune, noted for its inconsistency and illogical reasoning, has an article on Home Rule for Ire- land 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 Greece a republic, Russta a democracy, Belgium an assurance of integrity, France a promise of security, and that it shall enable the statute of Liberty jin New York harbor to shine un- dimmed. “We do not ask that our allies free the Moroccans, the Hindus, or the Koreans, but {t seems within reason jto ask that they give Home Rule to the Irish and thus help the United States in one of its own local prob- lems.” ‘Why does not the Tribune go the fll length in “democracy and ask freedom for the Moroccans, the Hindus and the Koreans? Is it because their complexions are a trifle darker than the other nationalities mentioned? F "But tn a war which“elocts democ- Tacy as the principle there ought to be a different condition in some of the lands which are allied to the prin- ciple. The United States, which in a Teal sense is about to fight for the security of the United States, and in THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man who in the co entious discharge of his duty dare stand alone; the world, with igno: intolerant judgment, may, conde the countenances of relatives may averted, and the hearts of friends s cold, but the sense of duty done : be sweeter than the applause of world, the countenances of relativ. the hearts of friends — Charles Sarr I honor the man who in the consci- entious 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. 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 Tri- bune could do a great work along that line by advocating justice for the colored American citizens who are in- sulted, and oppressed by the state governments of the South and whose lives are never safe from the murder ous Southersi mob, But instead it has not been a very long time since this same Tribune advocated the stripping from the coloreg citizen the few rights he now enjoys. “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 pa- triotic address to the colored people of the country and from every stand- point 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 qufet, ‘unpretentious service, the colored man is going to secure recognition, not by demanding his rights, but by deserv- ing them.” A right ts a thing to be demanded; a privilege, a thing to be deserved. It Dr. Frissell had said that the col ored man, 1s going to secure recogni- tion by demanding his rights and by deserving them, we would understand fully that he recognized that the citi zen 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 coun. try will, never come unto thelr own as long as they believe that they are inherently inferior and that they are not manly enough to deserve thelr rights, and after deserving thelr 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 peo- ple 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 i their jeans” to secure the neces- sary legal rights which will make them respected by their enemies. in the courts of this country. Manhood is what is wanted and not servile sub- mission. A blooded white man hates a cringing citizen, be he black .or white, and he admires manhood, self Tespect and courage in a Negro as 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 memo. ial, the Guardian says: “Thus saith in very truth the Planet, “We rise also to deny directly that the ‘quiet service’ lives of Booker Washington or of Russa Moton se- cured recognition of rights. ‘The most striking thing about the race-leader. ship career of Dr. Washington was that coincident with it went the great- est period of loss of citizenship and of legal debarment from rights ever known in any race and especially dur- ing 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 re- ‘viving the Booker Washington-no-egi- tation fasue. Dr. Washington’s own friends to not relish or desite it.” ne NEW HAMPTON MOVEMENT. ‘The meaning of the sudden “Hamp- ton Patriotic Movement” now being pulled off in Chicago, Detroit and other Northern cities isn’t quite clear. THE APPEAL has received a num- ber of letters and newspaper clippings from the dally papers bearing on the subject and gleans trom 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 Teached an acute stage, has on several occasions asserted to white audiences: “The negro wants segregation as much ‘46 or more than the white man.” This statement is not only false, but it i dangerous and ‘unfriendly doctrine tc be disseminated by the representative of an institution which claims to stan¢ for “Christian” training and “uplift? and all that sorb! stat. The writer of One of the letters re eelved by THE APPRAL, states tha she visited the Hampton exhibit ai the Hotel La Salle where she was in formed by the charming lady who hat charge of the exhibit, that “the DARKIES are making great progress.’ ‘What does it mean? 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 inno- 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 thie law and making a mockery of democracy. The daily newspapers often con- tain “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 Ger- mans 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 suppres. sion of lynching and the summary Punishment of the lynchers as a needed war measure, ‘The government is a victim to the High Cost of Living just as most of us poor mortals are for according to reports this week the expenditures for the fiscal year thus far have reached $1,600,000,000, more than $90,000,000 in excess of last years expenditures up to the present date and thus makes a new high record in American history. The chief item of the increase— $607,500,000—was purchase’ of the ob- gations of foreign governments in exchange for loans advanced to the Allies. The sum does not represent by approximately $140,000,000 the total amount authorized in loans. The general assembly of the Pres- byterian Church of the United States in session at Dallas, Texas, has put its official ban on Sunday sports, the Stinday’ newspaper, liquor and to- bacco. As the:meeting is being held in a part of thé country where lynch- ing and burning men at the stake is one of the Sunday sports of the mobs which fll up on bad whiskey and squirt tobacco juice, THE APPEAL suggests that a resolution denounc- ing lynching be'adopted.

Commends Protest by Guardian and Planet—Race Will Protest Till White ‘America Accords the Rights Which Belong to Every American Citizen Steady Decline of Rights Under B. T. Washington Policy. (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. John Mitchell of the Planet, in which he administers a very just and timely rebuke to Dr. Frisseil for some things which he says in the last issue of the Southern Workman. Rights Declined Under Washington. It fs amazing that at this late day, and after the STEADY DECLINE OF JOUR RIGHTS UNDER MR. WASH- INGTON'S POLICY of “quiet, unpre. tentious service.” that Dr. ‘Frissell should be: attempting to revive that pernicious, un-American, _unmanly, heresay of quiet-submission to wrong. What God directed his prophet to do was: “Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and declare junto my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.” And that is what we have been doing, and will continue to do, until White America heeds the message, turns from its evil ways and accords 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 Time. Dr. Frissell had just as well under- stand now, once for all, that the policy for which he stands, as regards our Fights, will never be’ accepted by the colored man, And the inculcation of such @ policy comes 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 that the Negro is made of a little dif- ferent clay. and therefore that it is alright FOR HIM TO QUIETLY SUB. MIT TO - WHAT WHITE MEN WOULD NOT BE EXPECTED TO SUBMIT TO, AND, 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 the: colored man, and realize that there is no essential difference between the colored man and themselves, they would be saved from some of the fool- ish things which they recommend at times. Let the Agitation Go On. Let the Planet, let the Guardian, let all the colored newspapers, continue fo speak out, and, in every other legiti- mate way, LET THE AGITATION GO ON. It is in vain for Dr. Frisell, or any one else to try to stop it. ‘Yours for equality of rights for all itizens, regardless of race or condi- ion. FRANCIS J. GRIMKE.

During its existence of seven years it has only had one president, Mrs. Florenceuckt, and only one secretary, Mrs. Mattie Wade Hicks, which speaks well for the harmony that the organization has the efficiency of these officers.
