Minnesota can exceed her quota of $47,000,000 in the War Stamp Pledge Week drive beginning Thursday, June 6 by observing the following hints, said a prominent worker: Aiding the W. S. S. campaign is giving help to the Allied cause and to U. S. soldiers; Buying stamps is nailing a plank in the nation's ultimate victory over the enemy; Pledging purchases to be made throughout the year means support for those engaged in forever putting down a regime that glories in the murder of women, children and other civilians; Creating interest on the part of others to buy W. S. S. is helping to build monuments for those heroes who have died and been wounded in for their OUR protection; He can provide pledging for a minimum for each person dependent upon him is not helping America to make the world a safe place to live in; You can lend a helping hand to those who are today fighting YOUR BATTLE in the front line of trenches by buying or pledging to buy your FULL QUOTA OF WAR SAVING STAMPS. This applies to every man, woman and child in every township, village, and county in MINNESOTA. HAVE FAMILY OF BABY BONDS Childless Couple Pledge Themselves to Buy W. S. B. Until two weeks ago Mr. and Mrs. (deleted by censor) had without children during their six years of married life. Now they have two infants born just a week apart—and it all came about in a unique way. They had a wedding anniversary on May 13 and their friends were invited. Before the wedding rived, however, the door bell rang and there, on the front porch when they answered the bell, they found a basket in which was wrapped a wee infant. How delighted they were. Taking it into the house they removed the coverings and there, sure enough, was their much longed for baby. It was a Baby Bond. Soon the guests arrived and extended hearty congratulations, for the baby—the Baby Bond—was their gift to the happy couple. Mr. and Mrs. (censored) have vowed they are going to have a large family of children for they have pledged themselves to purchase four War Savings Stamps (Baby Bonds) each month during the balance of this year. By so doing, they told their anniversary guests, they are realizing their wishes to raise a good sized family as well as to give Uncle Sam their support in his battle against autocracy. BUY W. S. B. War Savings Stamps and Loving Bonds work well together. --- VOL.34.NO.22 WAR STAMPS TO HAVE BIG DRIVE June 6 Is Opening Day for Minnesota Pledge Week for Their Purchase. "GOING OVER THE TOP" Director Culver Confident That Loyalty of People Will Bring Oversubscription of State's Quota of $47,000,000. Director D. S. Culver of the Minnesota War Savings Committee today set aside the week starting June 6th and ending on June 13th, as Minnesota pledge week for the purchase of war savings stamps. In making the announcement, he evinced confidence that the loyalty of people in this state will be manifested by pledging themselves to make purchases during the balance of this year which will result in oversubscribing the state's quota of $47,000,000. All county chairmen are now preparing for the drive that will soon start. In messages sent from state headquarters in the Metropolitan bank building, Minneapolis, a few days ago, sub-chairmen were asked probabilities of their respective purchases over the top" in the coming drive. Principally all replied that they expected to exceed the amounts allotted to their counties. "During Pledge week all citizens in Minnesota will be asked to pledge the purchase of War Savings Stamps during the balance of 1918 on a minimum basis of $20 per cash account." Mr. Culver today, "This does not mean that each is to be asked for cash subscriptions. Minnesota must raise her $47,000,000 quota during the year and the present amount, something less than $4,000,000, does not make a very good showing. "So optimistic are reports coming in from the various county chairmen that it has convinced us a great majority of counties will not only secure pledges for their required quotas, but will quite likely exceed their allotments." County chairman are already adding to the personnel of their campaign committees with the expectation of making a hundred per cent showing during the big thrift stamp drive. Several recently have visited headquarters here in an effort to derive new ideas and straighten out minor details so the work during June will go along without a single hitch. Vice Director J. H. Meyering, heading the sales forces, said the purpose of the campaign is not solely to ask immediate cash purchases. On the ground, he added, the role to be made during the week from June 6 to 13, are for W. S. S. purchases throughout the year. These will probably be on a monthly basis to extend through the coming months in equal portions. "The purpose of the government in inaugurating its War Savings Stamps sales is to encourage thrift," said Mr. Meyering. "That means that citizens can save from unnecessary expenditure by buying their quota of savings from it. All do that the campaign in Minnesota will be a great success." BUY W. S. S.

GERMANS BOAST OF OWN CRUELTY Tell Neutral Nations How Church and House Are Destroyed. IS MEANT AS A WARNING Circular Recipes Amount of Booty Seized in France and Belgium, and Mistreatment of English Prisoners of War. Washington." — Teutonic frightfulness as practiced in France and Belgium has been made the subject of a German warning to neutral nations of the fate which they may expect if they take up arms against the central powers. "If there are any still thinking of sighing with the allies let them take warning from the fate of others," says the warning. "Let in the form of a circular, which recites the amount of booty seized in France and Belgium, the number of churches damaged and destroyed, the money wring from the stricken inhabitants and finally the deliberate mistreatment of English prisoners of war. German propagandists have flooded Spain with this document printed in Spanish, and copies have come into the possession of the state department. Having established its German origin the department made public this translation: An annotated amount of war material contained in the battlefield the Germans have taken possession of incalculable booty in France and Belgium, including: High grade watches 417 Watches 5,616 Underwear 13,673 Embroideries and women's handkerchiefs 15,132 Uniforms and parasols 15,132 Silver spoons 1,876 Bottles of champagne 523,000 "These figures show a large increase over those of the campaign against France in 1870-71. "Punish Catholic Churches." "In Belgium, besides many art treasures, they have confiscated old paintings valued at 3,000,000 pesetas. "Due to the treachery of Cardinal Mercier and other priests, who did their utmost to stir the priests against the good-hearted German soldiers, they were forced to teach a severe lesson to the Belgian and French Catholics. Cathedrals destroyed ... 4 Rendered unserviceable ... 3 Churches destroyed ... 27 Rendered unserviceable ... 34 Total ... 68 "In Poland also a large number of churches have been destroyed for military reasons. The figures concerning these have not yet been published. The result of the stupid stubbornness of the Belgian people in combating the struggle after their bloody and final defeat on the battlefield, the German officers were forced, against their will, to impose punishments on many rich individuals and wealthy cities. This has contributed the following amounts to the German treasury: Punishments ... 15,000,000 Security ... 13,000,000 Repeals ... 15,750,000 Forced contributions ... 4,220,850 Total ... 129,071,850 "This amount includes a fine of 15-500 pesetas imposed on the Alasnian children who insist on speaking the French language and refuse to study the beautiful German language. These statistics are a most useful warning to the neutral countries. "If there are any still thinking of siding with the allies let them take warning from the fate of others." Boast Also of Cruelty. It is claimed also in this document that more than 50,000 British have been made prisoners, and in this connection the following statement is made: "Although to these figures the English oppose 124,808 German prisoners taken by them on the western front, it must be remembered the English treat their prisoners with notable kindness (blandura notoria), while the regime imposed on the English prisoners by the Germans is one of extreme rigor, so that the Germans, with a small number of prisoners, have secured a much superior moral effect. "Besides, to the 2,264 officers and 51,325 soldiers, must be added the several thousand English prisoners that have died in consequence of disease, scanty food and other accidents in German concentration camps." The figures regarding British prisoners, it is explained, refer to the total prior to the recent drive in Picardy and Flanders. Geta Long Lost Watch Easton, Pa.—Twenty years ago William D. Evans lost a watch in Washington township, between Bangor and Centerville. He took no less than twenty-five bicycle trips between these points in searching for the timepiece, but no to avail. Several days ago Evans was talking about the incident to a friend at Centerville. As a result of the conversation it was learned a resident of Centerville had found the watch, and after explanations the long lost watch was returned to its owner. ADOPT WAR ORPHANS American Soldiers Plan to Help Destitute French. Interesting Sidelight on the Fine Spirit of Our Army in France. Washington. — Soldiers are to "adopt" French war orphans and children of families made destitute by the war, through a plan proposed by the Stars and Stripes, the soldiers' newspaper over there, and approved by the American Red Cross. While full details of the plan are not available, it is interesting as a lighten on the fine spirit of our army and subtly will have a most profound effect upon French public opinion. The men will find the money they put into this service the sweetest sacrifice of their military careers, for they are now where they can see the full measure of suffering France has borne. Generations hence French man or woman eminent in art, literature, commerce, religion, politics or other lines will publicly testify that he or she was sustained back in 1918 as a child by the generous action of some American soldier. Thus the United States is welding indissoluble links of friendship, not only in France, but in Italy, Great Britain, Russia, Serbia, Greece, Romania and all other allied countries. If men and sailors and already pledged to give "lives" for their country, are willing also to share their small pay with the needy civilians of France, Belgium and Italy, the people safe at home will amply support the next Red Cross fund campaign for $100,000,000 in May. MRS. FRANCIS C. AXTELL Mrs. Francis C. Axtell, the first woman in the United States to be appointed by executive order to a federal commission, has been promoted by the president to the chairmanship of the United States Employees' Compensation commission. She was made a member of the commission a year ago. REFOREST BARE HILLSIDES Scarcity of Timber Moves Mining Companies in Pennsylvania to Take Action. Hazelton, Pa.—The scarcity of lumber for mine pillars and other mine uses has led to the creation of a forestry department by several of the large mining companies, one of which has just reforested Bear Creek watershed with 5,000 white pine and 5,000 Norway spruce trees. Thirty thousand more trees are in process of cultivation at Hugo, Pa. in the Panther Creek valley. When timber is reached out in the vicinity of the mines troublesome pine and long hauls will be eliminated. More timber in the anthracite region would stop floods, add to the water supply, reduce the drought periods and enable the antifracture industry to add to its output. Many thousands of acres are available about the mines for reforestation. Bet $10 on Who Will Kill the Most Huns Wilkesharre, Pa.—To settle a bet of $10 as to which could kill the most Huns, Alexander Gormackl, twenty-eight, and John Gorinski, twenty-three, enlisted in the United States army here. "We have arranged to carry a stick over with us," said Gormackl, "and every time one of us knocks a Hun over a notch on the stick will go to that man's credit. We trust each other. When the war is over and we come back the man with the most notches wins the bet." Steubenville. O.,—I sold my short pants at Newport News," writes Gilbert E.

In many cases the advancing French troops brought the first aid material and sometimes needed in saving the trees. Where the tree was absolutely cut down—as hundreds were—there was, of course, no relief measure to employ. Members of the U. S. Food Administration brought this picture to America. Early in the war the German government introduced a policy of strict conservation at home and has endeavored to be in every possible manner the French in their supply. U boat warfare and destruction of farming property are parts of the same campaign. Wars cannot be fought without me every financial demand upon the Nation.

OPEN THEIR ARMS TO OUR OFFICERS OPEN THEIR ARMS TO OUR OFFICERS British Go Out of Way to Extend Courtesies to Army and Navy Men. FRIENDLY GUIDES AT HAND Ohio Man Telle of Getting Cards to Parliament From Joe Develin —Describes Air Raid in London. New York.—The eagerness of the English and Irish to do favors to wandering Americans on leave from military duty abroad, and the general kindness met with everywhere "over there" is told in a letter of an American naval officer, living in Ohio, now in the war zone. He and a friend, who had been shown friendliness by strangers they had met by accident, found on two occasions that the men who had extended such courtesy were persons of considerable distinction. The officers wrote: "Now that I look back over it, it seems that my spare time was very well spent. I utilized every moment of it. I met hosts of people and made many friends. Every one seemed bent on entertaining us, and I can vouch for their success in this. On one occasion not long before I left his station, I held a reception for Admiral Sir Custon, staff and other American officers, and it was my good fortune to be introduced to David Lloyd George. Sir William Robertson and Balfour were among some of the other celebrities. The premier is a most impressive man, not in stature, for he was much shorter than I believed him to be, but in his fine face, personality, and sincerity of speech. He, I think, is very wonderful. Got cards to Parliament. On the day that the houses of parliament were some months ago, it was rumored that he would speak in the house of commons. So Lieutenant Jackson and I hurried down to Westminster at about 5:30 in the afternoon, determined, by hook or crook, to get tickets to the gallery. A dignified "bobble" pointed out some member of Parliament to us, and having decided on one because of his small stature and kindly face, Jackson and I swooped down upon him, one on either side. We soberly explained to him with dramatic little touches—thanks to Jackson—how much our hearts were set on getting tickets. He stood smiling at us, a very short, thick-set little face, a gentle smile, a fine, honest face, and then said, "Have you just come over r-fr-rom-er-rica? We told him how long we had been across and he said that he had one ticket only, but that he thought that he could find another for us. He signed his ticket—Joe Develin. He was the great Irish Unionist, a man, big in mind as he is small in stature. He soon returned with another member, whom he introduced. This was John Burns, the Labor leader. "That was a notable afternoon in the house of commons. Asquith, with his beautiful and precise oratory, but seeming to lack that sincegety of purpose and speech which is dominant of the premier, the answers to which would apparently have given valuable information to the enemy, and the premier's tense, flashing reply caused some few dramatic moments. "Then there were the air raids. These proved very exciting at first, but finally they lost their interest for me and became so commonplace that I paid little attention to them, only staying inside to avoid being hit by the falling shrapnel. Describe Air. Paid in London. Describes Air 'tied in London. "I was awakened by the guns in the outer defense at 4:30 in the morning, and then the inner defense guns began to bark. The moon was a slim crescent in the sky, and it was a beautiful night, although cold. Presently the faint drone of the raiding planes could be distinguished and there came the reverberating rumbers of bombs being dropped. Finally the noise of the motors died away and the guns on the coast could be heard, throwing up a barrage at the returning Hun planes, and at about six the bugles were sounding 'all clear' through the streets. "It was reported that two of the ten raiders were brought down. It seems that the crews of these Gotha planes wear electrically heated clothing, and in one machine the heating elements in the pilot's clothing absorbed so much current that, being unable to disconnect them, he was forced to descend. The Gothas have a wing spread of considerably over 100 feet, are twin motored, and carry a crew of three men—plotter, gunner, and bomber. Being twin-motored, their sonorous double hum is very distinctive. On the most brilliant of moonlight nights, when the thrum of their motors is quite strong, it is impossible to see the planes at their height of a mile or more. On the darker nights they may sometimes be to show lights in order to retain their flying formation, and then, if you are fortunate, you may glimpse these tiny points of light moving across the sky. "The majority of the people display no fright during the raids." The writer of the letter was for some time attached to the staff of Vice Admiral Sims and spent four months in London.

A bill to provide pensions at a minimum of $25 a month for veterans of the Civil War passed the House of Representatives by the impressive vote of 241 to 46. Yet this is not the most impressive thing in the incident. The forty-six representatives who cast the negative votes were all Democrats and all but one of them came from the solid South or its immediate environs. To them should be added two others, one from Tennessee and one from Texas, who answered "present" when their names were called. The sole negative vote cast by a Northerner was provided by Mr. Gordon of Ohio, whose motives may best be determined by his constituents, who will have opportunity to pass upon the question next November. The other forty-five members who opposed the bill are probably beyond reach of any political or other chastisement. They hall from states where the loyal soldiers of the Civil War are held in execution; and the only method of dealing effectively with them is by placing their party in the minority in Congress. They constitute a majority of their party and when the Democrats are in power they dominate their party colleagues; and it is only on rare occasions that they can be overridden. This hap pened to be one of those occasions. THE DRIVE FOR LIBERTY The movement for the Liberty Congress was inaugurated in Boston, June 13 of last year at a session held in Faneuil Hall, the cradle of liberty, at a national conference called by the New England League. A Liberty Conference was started as a national committee to arrange for a National Colored Liberty Congress. Rev. A. C. Powell of New York is president; Prof. A. W. Whalley of Boston is national organizer; W. M. Trotter, executive secretary. A board of managers was begun with Robert H. Harrison of New York as chairman. This board is to be augmented.

ZION CHURCH—JUNE 23RD TO BE LIBERTY SUNDAY IN COLORED CHURCHES OF NATIONAL CAPITAL All Colored Churches, Business, Civic, Literary and Fraternal Organizations and Societies Urgency Requested to Send Delegates. To the Colored Americans of the Republic of U. S. A.; By virtue of the vote of the National Colored Liberty Conference in national convention assembled at Boston, Mass., June 13, 1918, to wit: "The Aim and Object of this National Colored Liberty Congress is to press the just claim of the Colored American citizens of the United States of America to share in the world democracy for which they are subject to light under the flag of the Republic, and to take positive measures to secure from the Government guarantee of the abolition of disfranchisement and of all caste discriminations, civil and political." We now send forth this CALL to our fellows in Color and in Prescription; To all Colored Churches, business, civic, literary and fraternal societies and organizations, greetings: The National Colored Liberty Congress is called to consider among ourselves and lay before U. S. Congress methods by which President Wilson and the Government may best carry out his great war slogan—"To make the world safe for Democracy, to make the world a fit place to live in." And we would also add to them—"To make Democracy safe for the world, to make the world a fit place for all people to live in." We know that the present contains the darkest hours of the world's history. The earth is full of violence, pain and sorrow; of bitterness and hate. Many people are in a state of perplexity; their hearts are failing them with fear because of the evils which stalk abroad by night and by day. Our people are trying to hold fast their faith in God and in our government. But to many God seems to be far away and the government strangely indifferent to the many wrongs and injustices done to our people. And it is certain beyond question, that neither culture, religion, nor even our boasted Christian civilization has saved our nation from many deeds and traits of autocratic barbarism. In the midst of much suffering and prejudicial wrongs for centuries, we have been patient and loyal to our country. In all wars for independence and a united nation, we have marched and fought in the front ranks. "When disaster clouded the Union's cause, we volunteered 200,000 strong, and served without pay for eighteen months till given that of white troops. Faced threatened enslavement if captured; were brave in action, patient under heavy and dangerous labors, and cheerful amid hardships and privations. Surely we have given to the nation and the world undying proof that Americans of African descent possess the pride, courage and devotion of the patriot and soldier." That is the compliment paid the Colored soldiers at the close of the great Civil War. We are no less patriotic and loyal today; we serve our country and its flag; we know no other. Representing as we do, more than one-tenth of the fighting strength of the U. S. we desire in Liberty Congress to be assembled, place and date as above aforesaid, to ask President Wilson and Congress at this time to remove from the statutes of our Country all proscription laws of race discriminations of whatever kind, that we may have at home, for ourselves, our wives, our children and our posterity, that which we are fighting and dying in a strange land to secure for others. We are ready to fight to victory for a world-wide democracy which offers equal opportunity and equal protection, for every man, woman and child, American citizens at home and beyond the seas. With this covenant we stand ready to pledge to the government our fortunes, our lives, our wives and children, to the last dollar and the last man to win the war for world-wide democracy and to make the world a fit place for all people to live.

The Philadelphia Ledger is of the opinion that this war will produce no Robert Morris, no Stephen Girard, no Jay Cooke—meaning by that that no man will so impress himself upon the financial operations of the government during the war that he will stand out like these figures of Revolutionary and Civil War days. This may mean some loss to the picturesqueness with which historians may write the record of our war for the freedom of the THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men.

The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. world; but that will be more than overbalanced by the gain to the nation in the consciousness that the united action of ten million citizens—the number who subscribed to the second Liberty Loan—means more for the national cause than the superhuman efforts of any one man. Resolutions urging the organic union of all the evangelical churches in the United States were adopted at Columbus, Ohio, by the general assembly of the Presbyterian church north. Arrangements will probably be made, as has been done by nearly all of the other orthodox branches of the so-called Christian church, to jimcrow the colored members. One of the ironical developments of the last few weeks' disclosures at Washington is that the American soldiers who are now brigaded with French and English troops on the Western front are fighting with Lewis machine guns and Enfield rifles, both of which Secretary Baker a year ago thought not good enough weapons for Yankees to use. DEMOCRATS BROUGHT THEM IN. "This department is too patriotic to use these pencils," wrote Inspector C. O. Myers to W. D. Fulton, Ohio's Secretary of State, on receiving a consignment of pencils marked "Made in Germany." It was a fine joke on the Democratic officials of Ohio, whose party stands for free trade. They are "too patriotic" to use pencils "Made in Germany," but in 1913 their party was so unpatriotic as to make a bid for German competition in lead pencils, against those "Made in America," by reducing the tariff duty to a ridiculous rate, thereby enabling Germany to stock our market so full that our importers are carrying those stocks four years later. Do you Democrats and free traders now see the point? If the war lasts long enough perhaps you will learn something in regard to this matter. No amount of argument has ever been able to convince you.

WILSON Aroused by the lynching of five colored persons because of a killing episode the National Equal Rights League sent to President Wilson today a telegram to protest calling attention to the reported holocaust of two colored American soldiers in France. The telegram read as follows: "Boston, Mass, May 23, 1918. "The President, White House. "Washington, D. C. "At the very time that the Red Cross is asking every American worker to give one day's wages for its humanity work, five colored Americans are fiendishly murdered by a white American mob, one of the lynched being a woman. Simultaneously General Pershing announces two colored American soldier heroes victors in bloody combat over 20 Germans. France gave them the Croix de Guerre. Will you, their President, recognize their heroisism by publicly raising your personal and official influence against lynching of their women. "NATIONAL EQUAL RIGHTS LEAGUE." LEAGUE.

Preparations are being made for the sustenance and homes for the delegates and visitors. Plans are also being laid for their special entertainment during their stay in the city.

One of Our Highly Respected Citizens Passes to the Great Beyond... This community was considerably shocked when on last Wednesday the people longed to chat Mr. J. W. Grançum had been found dead in his bed at the residence of Mr. J. H. Lawson, 683 St. Anthony avenue, where he made his home for the last five years. The presumption is that he died of heart failure he having been a sufferer for several years from heart and stomach troubles. The deceased who was about 49 years of age was a man of excellent parts. He was a clerk in the post-office where he stood high for his efficiency. He was an officer in St. James A. M. E. Church and a member of several fraternal orders. He was living there. He was twice married and had one daughter of whom he was very proud, but all have preceded him to the unknown world. Arrangements for his funeral have been made by Mars Lodge, Odd Fellows, aid the services will be held at St. James A. M. E. church tomorrow at 3:00 o'clock p. m. Friends may view the remains at the church, where they will lie in state, from 2:00 to 3:00 o'clock. What disposition will be made of the body had not been determined at this writing as no word had been received from relatives of the deceased in Washington, D. C.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN. That default has occurred in the conditions of that certain mortgage, dated the 8th day of May, 1912, executed by Bertha A. Wolf and Richard G. Wolf (wife and husband) as mortgagors, to Rose Ledegar as mortgagee, filed for record in the office of the Register of Deeds in and for Ramsey County, State of Minnesota, on the 9th day of May, 1912, at 3:00 o'clock and 20 minutes P. M. and recorded in Book 438 of Mortgage Records, on page 243 thereof; that said mortgage was subsequently and on the third day of July, 1914, duly assigned to John P. Smith by Decree of the Probate Court of Ramsey County, Minnesota, which said Decree was filed for record in the office of the Register of Deeds in and for Ramsey County, State of Minnesota, on the 10th day of December, 1914, at 2 o'clock and 50 minutes P. M. recorded in Book 572 of Deeds Records, accounted for the reason that pursuant to a provision of mortgage, said assignee of said mortgage has elected to declare the whole debt secured thereby to be now due and payable, at the date of this notice, upon the debt secured by said mortgage, the sum of Three Thousand ($3,000.00) Dollars, and that no action FOR A SHARE IN THE NEW WORLD DEMOCRACY NATIONAL ORGANIZER APPEALS TO RACE TO PREPARE TO SEND DELEGATES TO LIBERTY CONGRESS AT WASHINGTON, D. C. JUNE 24 TO 29, 1918 Our Paramount Duty. Realizing that the World War in Europe has already removed race discriminations and political disabilities from every proscribed class in Europe, except the Armenians and that the Entente Allies have been trying to relieve these; realizing that now the Colored American stands as the most powerful person in any civilized country in the world; realizing that the United States through its president, and cabinet officers declares its reason for entering into the European war is to promote liberty and democracy over the world; realizing that not only have Colored Americans sought to volunteer for this war, but that hundreds of thousands of our young men are subject to be compelled by law to risk disease and death as soldiers in this war; realizing that the European who have secured rights have assembled together and presented their demands for this reward for fighting; the New England League, on June 13, 1917, called the National Colored conference on the issue of world democracy for Americans of African extraction, which formed the National Colored Liberty Conference and elected Prof. Allen W. Whaley as Grand Organizer. While President Wilson is declaring that the U. S. A. is fighting for "World Democracy," disfranchisement, Jim-Crowism, Lynching and even Massacre go on here at home, and the government itself, is creating new segregations for this very army of democracy. It will be to the everlasting shame of our race if at this time when all oppressed people have formally made their rights denied, we Colored Americans of the entire country fail to assemble and protest our claims for rights. Unless we secure redress out of this war for which our country has been attached to fight for "World Democracy," disfranchisement will never be abolished and WE OURSELVES WILL BE TO BLAME FOR NOT RACIALLY DEMANDING IT FROM THE GOVERNMENT. We have never seen and will never see again such a time as this, hence every Colored community is in duty bound to send delegates. Every literary, political, civic, fraternal and race organization and every religious society should finance and send a delegate. Every community should have a COMMUNITY LIBERTY COMMITTEE, whose duty it is to get all local bodies and organizations to send a delegate. Also to hold a town or city election of delegates at some of our Colored churches on or before May 19 or 20. We are not forming any new organization. The Grand Organizer is backed by the officers of the Conference, Rev. A. C. Powell, Pres.; Rev. J. W. Hill, Vice.; W. Munco Trotter, Exec. Sec.; Rev. M. F. Sydes, R. I., Sec.; Mrs. M. Cravath Simpson Asst.; Rev. D. S. Klugh, Conn.; Treas., Mrs. Sarah J. Allen, Corr. Sec.; H. H. Harrison, N. Y., Chairman Exec. Board; Rev. I. B. Waters, 2nd Vice; Rev. S. S. Crockett, N. J., 3rd Vice; Mrs. Bessie Smith, Va., Asst. Corr. Sec. The permanent headquarters of the Grand Organizer are at 34 Cornhill, Boston, Mass., where the clerical work will be in charge of a clerk, and where all speaking engagements, and all other communications for the Grand Organizer should be sent.
