SATURDAY, MARCH 2, 1918. PEOPLES' PROTESTS PREVAIL. PEOPLE'S PROTESTS PREVAIL. That it is not only proper and right to protest against wrong, but that it is the only way we can hope to secure redress, has been exemplified by the action of the committee of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in calling upon President Wilson and protesting against the lynching of McIlherron and presenting a petition signed by twelve thousand citizens of New York expressing the sentiments of twelve million more of the most loyal citizens of the United States, asking executive clemency for the five soldiers of the Twenty-fourth Infantry under sentence of death for alleged participation in the Houston riot. The President professed ignorance of some of the matters presented and gave evidence of his disapproval. Subsequently he indefinitely suspended the sentence of the men, for which he has the thanks of the aforesaid twelve million of his loyal constituents. The protests of the Association to the Governor of Tennessee in the McIlherron case also brought a very satisfactory reply. It pays to protest. HELP TO WIN THE WAR. Governor Burnquist has issued a proclamation designating the week commencing Sunday, March 10, as War Club week and urges the people of the state, men women and children, to purchase War Savings Stamps and Thrift Stamps, to form War Savings Societies, to practice economy in their personal affairs and to do all in their power to affiliate with the National War Savings Committee. INDIANS AS SOLDIERS History gives the Indians a place as warriors. Therefore one is not surprised to learn that present day Indians are becoming good soldiers in the army of Uncle Sam. Cato Sells, commissioner of Indian affairs, recently made a survey of the national cantonments in Texas, giving particular attention to the con- WANTED, A SAMARITAN.

From the New York Independent. dition of the 1,500 Indians who are learning the art of war in these camps. "I addressed the Indians collectively at each cantonment and conferred with them individually, making definite inquiry concerning their treatment." Commissioner Sells said. "Everywhere I found them well contented, and nowhere either a disposition to complain or cause for complaining. "They are a splendid body of men physically, with a wonderful spirit of patriotism. "The officers in command universally complimented the Indians for their good behavior and highly commended them as soldiers. I was especially pleased that the Indians are not segregated, but that they are located without regard to the fact that they are Indians. I am strongly opposed to independent Indian units, large or small, and am firm in the opinion that they should enter the army upon the same basis as other citizens; that they should be mixed indiscriminately among the whites, elbow to elbow, so they may absorb the English language, habits and civilization of their white brothers. In this way only can they advance. I want no discrimination either for or against them, but believe that they should be promoted on their merits and always advanced when they are deserving. "I visited the hospitals, made inquiry as to their management, called upon each sick Indian, inquired into matters of sanitation, water supply and health conditions generally. With the exception of the epidemic prevailing in Camp Bowie, the hospital enrollment was so small as to be very gratifying. This was notably true of the Indians. The difference is accounted for because the Indians come from a colder climate than most of the white soldiers. Only one Indian is numbered among the dead." Commissioner Sells is "especially pleased that the Indians are not segregated and he gives good reasons for his opposition to independent Indian units in the army. His arguments are logical and ought to apply to all other classes of Americans in the United States Army. There should be no segregated units of colored men who are willing to die for their country. WHAT DOES IT MEAN? The following appeal is appearing in the daily press: To the Editor: May I be permitted to appeal in this personal way to your readers for a war need very pressing and very deserving of patriotic attention, and yet easily overlooked. The newly-organized Circle for Negro War Relief is trying to provide for enlisted and drafted men the same comfort and cheer that numerous societies are giving the white troops; also to care for the many cases of distress in Negro families where the wage earner is serving the country. One-tenth of our troops are colored men. Surely a movement to organize them and work toward a great common end will make the Negroes better citizens (just as all other war work is making better citizens) and will have results reaching far beyond the present crisis. The Circle for Negro War Relief is approved by, and is working with the National Red Cross. It aims to do a needed work that might have to be left partially undone in the present enormous demands on our national Red Cross. Our office (donated by a friend) is at 489 Fifth avenue, New York.

Every penny will go to actual relief work. Our colored troops have been brave, loyal fighters from the days of the Civil war to San Juan hill. Whatever one's view of race problems, there can be no two opinions of helping thousands of colored men and women to be more efficient soldiers and citizens and so help win the war. EMILIE BIGELOW HAPGOOD. It is possible that the American Red Cross has become so UNAMERICAN that it has drawn the color line and made the formation of a separate organization for colored soldiers necessary? What does the RED CROSS stand for? Thousands of colored Americans are members of the National Red Cross having donated their dollars during the drive for membership last year. They asked no questions about the way the money was to be used but supposed it was for the benefit of ALL AMERICAN SOLDIERS. A strange condition seems to have arisen. What does it mean? WAR SAVINGS CEPTIFICATES The new war savings certificates will bear 4 per cent interest, will run for a term of five years and will be issued in denominations as low as $5. They are to be just what their names indicate, "savings" certificates, a means of investment for small savings, so that the money will be safe and profitable and at the same time affording the government the use of it. It is planned to sell the certificates to the public on the installment plan by using stamps that may be purchased and pasted in a book for that purpose. When there are sufficient stamps to cover the cost of a certificate the book can be exchanged for one. The stamps will be placed on sale in every town and city in the country. The individual who has money laid by for a rainy day need have no hesitation in converting it into war savings certificates, since the government will redeem them at any time upon the request of the holder, allowing interest at 4 per cent. Under this arrangement the investor in these certificates will have the satisfaction of knowing that if any emergency should arise in his family, such as sickness or death, he could immediately realize upon his certificates. It is a safe prediction that the war savings certificates will go like "hot cakes." Their small denomination, the good interest rate, the terms upon which they may be purchased, the fact that they are not subject to taxation when held by persons of small means—all will make them an attractive investment. Working people whose margin of income above expenses is narrow at best will find in them an excellent incentive for beginning the prudent habit of saving. They will be popular for Christmas presents. School children will be able to invest part of their little weekly allowances in certificates. As a result many millions will be transferred to the Federal Treasury and through it will flow into the channels of trade, while the people of small means will be made to feel that they, too, are doing their share toward helping their country win the war. THE ONLY SOLUTION. Recently at the Church of England Congress at Southampton, Sir Sidney Olivier, who was governor of Jamaica from 1907 to the end of 1912, put forward the claim that no solution of the American color question was possible except by a resolute disclaimer of the color line and the race differentiation theory. ce when we should wards out of men. us climbed on pro- been raised against e and lust, the in- d serve the law, and our least disputes. e must speak and ight the wrengs of Sir Sidney Olivier certainly knows what he is talking about. In the Island of Jamaica, where he was governor for five years, there are about 800,000 colored people and only 20,000 whites and yet there is absolutely no friction between the races. Jamaica is a British colony and the government is just. Colored men enjoy every civil and political right which white men have and there is no color line. Among other things Sir Sidney said: "My study and comparison of conditions in the United States and the West Indies," he said, "has brought me to that conclusion. American and colonial politicians and public men are not Exeter Hall abolitionists nor evangelical Christian missionaries. I do not expect them to adopt the methods of missionaries, nor do I sympathize with all their programmes. But it cannot be ignored that it happened that the faiths of the men who laid the foundations for the peaceful development of the mixed community in Jamaica were democratic and humanitarian and, above all, uncompromisingly Christian. "Were race differentiation held to it must increase civil discord. When the balance of numbers is as it is in the South in America it must tend to foster obscure preparations for civil war and rebellion. If statesmen and citizens face in the contrary direction I do not say that they will attain immediately civil peace, but I am confident that they will be traveling the only road toward it. "I do not suggest that race does not greatly affect facilities for combination between humans in healthy national life, but race difference is only one of many schismatic agencies. The solution of the difficulty involves discipline for the white man as well as the black." CONVERTING THE ESKIMO. Christian missionaries seem to have made little headway in converting the Eskimo in the far north, according to Donald B. MacMillan, head of the Crockerland expedition, who has recently returned to New York, after four years in the Arctic. Mr. McMillan was in daily contact with the Eskimos. He finds them lovable and easily managed. The members of the expedition trusted, implicitly the little colony of six families at Eta, base of the expedition, on the northeast shore of Greenland, and never suffered a loss by theft. Yet the same understanding of the Eskimo character has made Mr. McMillan skeptical as to the power of missionary work to better their social standards. "I don't believe the missionaries will be able to change the social customs of the Eskimos very greatly. They are a happy, care-free, jovial people. They are continually laughing. If they see a man in serious thought for more than a few minutes at a time they think something is wrong with him. And, really, they have all the necessary virtues right now. They love each other, they care for each other's welfare, and they protect each other. If one is hungry all are hungry. They have a perfect socialism. "And they are absolutely honest. Our supplies at Eta lay on the ground in plain view of every one in the settlement for four years, and no one ever touched them without permission. In New York after dark they wouldn't remain four minutes before being stolen. "Piblocko" is the word that expresses what the Eskimos think of the world at war, Mr. MacMillan said. It means "run amuck; gone clean crazy." The Eskimos believe that all the white man nations have gone "piblocko." "I tried to explain," Mr. MacMillan said, "that the war started because but they wouldn't believe it; they only shook their heads and said: 'No; that's impossible. There is plenty of land for everybody.' When we were getting ready to leave Eta they begged us to remain with them. 'Why go back there?'—meaning civilization—happy.'" THE APPEAL believes that the missionaries who are trying to "convert" the Eskimos are "piblocko," especially those from the United States, who are trying to impose the American brand of jimcrow Christianity on them. If they have all of the necessary virtues right now, why waste time and money teaching them the murderous Christianity of America? INCREASED PENSIONS PROPOSED. Substantial increases in existing rates of pension for disablement of the limbs from injuries received in line of duty, are contained in a bill introduced by Representative George P. Darrow of Pennsylvania, which will come up for action by the House at the next session of congress. Mr. Darrow's proposed rates run from $65 for the loss of total disability of one hand or one foot, to $150 for the loss or total disability of both arms and both legs. They amount roughly to an increase of about 50 per cent in the existing rates for similar cases. The bill is made to apply to persons already on the pension rolls, and to all who may be granted a pension hereafter, but Mr. Darrow specifically provides that the measure shall not operate to reduce any pension heretofore granted. The passage of this measure will be heartily approved of by the people. CAN'T BEAT NELSON The President's counsel to Minnesota Democrats to join with the Republicans in re-electing Senator Knute Nelson is a virtue born of necessity. The Senator had expressed a desire to retire to private life. No Democrat stands a ghost of a show to succeed him. If he runs again and is elected by both parties, the Democrats have lost nothing. A real display of non-partisanship by Democrats would be to abstain from contests in States which are normally Republican, but where there now happen to be Democratic Senators by reason of the divided Republican strength in 1912, which enabled Democrats to slip into office. When Mr. Wilson counsels the Democrats of his own State of New Jersey to make no contest for Senator next time, he will have given convincing evidence of his real desire for non-partisanship in the elections during the war. HIGHER PENSIONS Representative Charles E. Fuller of Illinois has prepared a bill that will bring happiness to all surviving veterans of the Civil War. It provides that every person who served ninety days or more in the military or naval service shall receive a pension of $50 per month if receiving less than that sum at the present time. Another measure introduced by Mr. Fuller proposes to increase the pension of Army nurses to $25 per month. Both bills have been referred to the Committee on Invalid Pensions, of which Mr. Fuller is a leading member, and he intends to use his best efforts to get them favorably reported at as early a date as possible. That, necessity is the mother of invention, is being demonstrated daily during the war. The people are doing things they did not even dream of doing four years ago and doing without many things they deemed actually necessary to their existence. They are learning conservation, thrift and Hooverizing and when the war shall have ended, a consummation to be devoutly wished for, they will know more than ever before how to make both ends meet. This war has been, is, and will be, a great educator. --- What a day that will be when the tidings are flashed over the sea and land that peace has been declared! From ten thousand times ten thousand steeples bells will ring out, as if they were human things, their wild delight at the long-hoped-for event. Never, in the history of the world will there have been such a day of universal joy.—Our Dumb Animals. In Middletown, Conn., a Congregational, a Baptist, and a Methodist church have voted to unite and worship for three months to save coal. The example set by these churches could be followed by the churches in many large cities. Why Did They Prefer "Colored?" (From the New York News.) We trust that all of the advocates—learned and otherwise, white and black, North and South—of the use of the word "Negro" as a race term caught the full meaning of its use in Houston, Texas. At the request of the four-fourth Infantry men themselves, the authorities decided to refer to them because as "colored" soldiers. They had been divided and nagged and goaded by the corrupted use of the word until for bearance ceased to be one of their virtues. They had become contemptuously and constantly referred to in the daily press not as American soldiers, or Americans, nor as "Uncle Boys" or in any other respectful terms, but had been designated and debased in the middle mind there—the brave, mildly offended, the American flag—as "Negroes." Perceiving this evil practice and influencing the while officers of the Twenty-fourth appealed to the authorities to use the word "colored" to instead. With the word "colored," troops or soldiers would have to be used. A kindler feeling between the soldiers and the townpeople they were sure would in result, but they were profoundly right. They were too late. Had the practice obtained to their coming in Houston, a state of affairs might have ensued. We all promiscuous, wilful and indifferent users of the word "Negro" to ponder this situation slowly. The officers to request the troopers and their officers for the change should be a striking example to all Doubting Thomases as to just how the practice works out today in hard, everyday life. Whatever the argument about making it respectable in the race today, it does no good today. It does much harm, and then, for its use? Are you willing to be called a "Nigger?" Are you pleased to have your wife or mother called a "Negress?" Then discontinue using "Negro." If you think it worth while for you to be referred to as a man and your folk as people, insist on the use of the word "colored." Must Judge A Group by its Best. (From the Christian Register, Boston Mass.) No one can be said to know any class of people who has not been in intimate and sympathetic relation with the best as well as the worst of the class. We compare many persons who live in the South, and think they know the colored race, with others who have had no such contact, but who have come into intimate and sympathetic relations with large numbers of that race whom their Southern friends have never known; and of the two sets of people we should say that the second knew the colored people other than the first. They know asplaining them that the others do not know them, knowing, do not enter into and appreciate their key capabilities by direct contact with the best of the race which others are the obvious of; they know qualities which only respect and sympathy can bring out; they know possibilities to which others by their very acquaintance are blinded. If those who know the colored race through the mass and by observation merely could know what individual possibilities are demonstrated in growing numbers of the elect, and would be courageously candid with themselves, they would revise their judgments and possibly soften their prejudices. At any time, they ought to credit to those on whom they charge ignorance of the colored race the values that come from knowing them, and because they are the equal of any members of the dominant race in the highest abilities and in the clearest aims. No estimate is worth much which does not take people at their best. PAID ADVERTISEMENT Prepared for and by A. N. Craig [Picture of a man with white hair and a dark suit.] A. N.

(1-12-18) The One More Effort Club held its regular meeting at the residence of Mrs. Wm. Mills, 548 Aurora Ave., on last Tuesday afternoon and had a very large meeting. The club is preparing to present a playletie entitled "The Colored Suffragette" on March 19 at St. James Church. Be on the lookout for it. Tickets only 10 cents.

You'll be treated right. Mrs. Wm. Mills, of Aurora avenue, following her usual custom on Friday evening of last week celebrated Washington's birthday and entertained at dinner Mrs. W. H. Reynolds, the godmother of her son Woodford. A number of Mrs. Reynold's friends took advantage of the occasion and tendered her a surprise party at Mrs. Mills' residence and presented her a beautiful cups and saucers. A delightful lunch followed and everybody was happy. Did you notice the advertisement of Handlan & Sullivan in this issue?

THE MAN WHO DARES 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. head, 1678 Blair street, St. Paul.

Perfect our transportation systems, rail and river. The three days carnival of the "Ull Have a Good Time Club" held at Union Hall last week closed in a blaze of glory Friday night. The contest for the most popular lady was the absorbing feature. The contestants received votes as follows: Miss Theola Ridley. $22; Miss Josephine LaBode, 1,609; Miss Mamie Gorris, 2,749; Miss Cornelia Benjamin, 2,755 and Miss Benjamin was declared the winner of the contest and she was awarded the prize, a gold bracelet watch. Owing to the closeness of the votes received by Miss Gorris to the winner the committee decided to give her a consolation prize and presented $175.00 in cash to her. The carnival was a success in every way and netted nearly $175.00. The committee desires to thank the contestants and the public. The "Minstrellette" given entirely by the ladies of the Sunday school class of Mr. W. T. Francis of Pilgrim Baptist Church, in the church hall on Thursday night was a screaming success from start to finish. The program was an all star cast. Especially appealing was Madam Camouflage's (W. T. Francis) rendition of Tolstoi's "Good Bye Summer." Mrs. Jennie Kelly brought down the house in telling what a "Long Tall Gal" could do. Mrs. Emma Hood asaman in the cabin scene took the old timers back to childhood days. Mrs. Barkside was in his house in "Me and My Gal" who have to look to her laurels as a singer. Mrs. Gladys James had the audience from beginning in her "Keep on Smiling." They smiled. Mrs. Francis as Red Cross girl and originator of the scene and music aroused a storm of patriotism. Madam Camouflage and Picks (Mrs. Hood, Mrs. Simpson, Mrs. Scott, Mrs. Howard and Mrs. Smith) allowed no in the audience to get lonely. Mrs. Hair and chorus in "Mother Dixie and You" was usual very charming. The "East End" Mesdames a Kelly, Franci, Stepp Wood, James and Barkside, had a talk way about them. Bob Cole otherwise Mrs. Hattie Hall as musician in the evening keep the house in a continual roar. And last but not least whenever one was saturated with joy, Mrs. Lee, the dramatic reader, comes along and tells us she has religion. Can you beat it. There was quite a large crowd present which might have been doubled if it had been given a present amount of advertising and print publicity. There was much originally displayed in the production and it is the opinion of THE APPEAL that if it properly advertised it could be repeated would pack the church or Union Hall to capacity. It pays to advertise. Don't, "save at the spigot and lose at the bung hole." SOLDIER AND SAILOR INSURANCE. To the man who has gone to the colors the United States Government offers the safest, the most liberal, and the cheapest insurance on the face of the earth. Approximately 300,000 men have already accepted the Government's offer, applying for insurance of about two and three-quarter billions of dollars. The average amount applied for per man is more than $8,600, which is very close to the $10,000 maximum provided for by the law. This insurance total, great as it is, should be only a beginning. Every person in the military and naval forces of the Nato owes to himself and to those he loves to avail himself of the full insurance protection. But the time in which he can so is limited. Prompt action is imperative. Those who joined the service before October 15, 1917, must apply for the insurance on or before February 12, 1918. After that, it will be too late. The automatic insurance which is provided until February 12, 1918, is only partial protection. Parents, brothers and sisters, who have a representative of their family in the Army or Navy should, for their own sake, and for his, write to him at the address of the man he has not already done so, to buy the Government insurance. They should urge him to buy the full $10,000, and, above all, to buy it now. --- ST. PAUL WEEK'S RECORD OF HAPPENINGS. IN MINNESOTA'S CAPITOL.

If elected to the office of mayor my public activities would be prompted by the following sentiments: I believe in Our Contry, God bless her. I believe in Freedom For All Forever. I believe in equal rights for all and special privileges for none. I believe in St. Paul. I believe in its people. I believe in river transportation. I believe in the rights of labor. And in just rewards for labor. I believe in the rights of capital. I believe in doing unto others as you would that others would do unto you. I believe in giving every man, woman and child a chance to enjoy the reasonable needs and comforts of life. I believe in charity towards all, and malice towards none. I believe in a much greater St. Paul in the near future. I believe we can make St. Paul the greatest packing center and largest livestock market in the world. I believe we can make St. Paul a large iron and steel manufacturing and distributing center. I believe we can make the Farm Loan bank, together with our local banks, important factors in developing the Great Northwest, and thus greatly stimulate the manufacturing and jobbing interests of St. Paul. Expenditures In Accordance With The Times ONE STONE! A NATIONAL DUTY. There Should Be a Liberty Bond in Every Home. The Treasury of the United States has a great deal of money to raise and it can not be raised by bankers alone, says Secretary McAdoo. The banks of this country can not alone sustain America's ends in this war and extend to our allies the essential aid which they must have to continue the war. The rich of this country can not do it alone; the men of this country can not do it alone; the women of this country can not do it alone; but all of us, the people of the United States, disregarding partisanship, forgetting selfish interests, thinking only of the supremacy of right and determined to vindicate the majesty of American ideals and secure the safety of America and civilization, can do the great and splendid work which God has called upon us to do. A. E. H. Suggested as a Candidate for the State Legislature. The last issue of the North Central Progress, Mr. G. Mueller, editor and owner, contained the following complimentary notice: "Fred D. McCracken, former private secretary to ex-Congressman F. C. Stevens, has been suggested by a large number of people of this district for a candidate for representative in the State Legislature. Mr. McCracken is a very able man; is well versed in legislative matters; has had the training for many years of one of the best representatives in Congress that Minnesota ever had; and he has many friends who would give him their support." THE APPEAL echoes those same sentiments, and so do a host of his friends in that neck of the woods. A. B.

At a War Savings Rally in New York recently, Hon. Elihu Root delivered an address. What he said there is just as applicable here, and this is what he said in part: "You can begin saving by the dollar, or you can begin saving by the quarter. You can see how this works. All four birds with one stone, which is the example of markmanship that I would like to apply all along the German trenches. The best and perhaps the most important is this, that you save by not using, and what you don't use is left for the Government to use for our men. Every yard of cloth less that you use in your apparel is a yard of cloth more to put into uniforms and blankets. Every pair of soehs less than you wear, is a pair of shoes for one of our men to stand in trenches with. And it is most amazing the way in which a vast number of small contributors mount up. "The second bird is that you turn your 25c, your $4.12, over to the Government, and the Government has the money to use in winning the war, has it until after the war is all over. It has the money to buy steel, to make powder, to make rifles, to make shoes, to make steamships, to do all the vast multitude of things necessary to be done to win this war. The third bird is that when the war is over, peace has come again, the production of wealth has recommenced, and are all prosperous again, victorious and all American America, sailing the sea with our courage unhindered by arrogant attempts, superiority to prevail, then the Government will pay to you the money that you have thrown away in the meantime, and you will have it. "The fourth bird is that you will be better people. You have laid the foundation for the restoration of a virtue that should obtain in all democracies, in all republics. You will have wiped off from the great surface of our National Record the reproach of being a wasteful, extravagant, money-loving, luxury-loving people and you will make yourselves, by that exercise of the virtue of thrift, and you will make your children, more like those great and noble men who founded our republic, and through their privations and sacrifices gave us the liberty and the justice that we have." Therefore let every loyal citizen in the state of Minnesota determine to slay as many "birds" as possible. The more stamps you buy, the quicker comes the end. Buy Another War Savings Stamp. The War Has Thrown a Load of Work and Expense On the Telephone Company Did you ever notice the difference between the size of the crowd in a store Saturday afternoon and other days in the week? The telephone company is now serving a "Saturday afternoon crowd" every day. Since the war began, the business activity of the country has been expanding with abnormal rapidity. This has required constantly more and more telephone service for the business houses. Complete telephone systems have been built and are maintained at more than fifty training camps over the country. This is taking a tremendous amount of equipment In spite of the war and what increased number of telephone men so many of our trained men, the of labor and the high cost of tel In spite of all these obstacle public for telephone service in a In spite of the war and what it has increased number of telephone messages so many of our trained men, the shortage of labor and the high cost of telephone calls.
