OUR WAR INTENTIONS "We intend what our forefathers, the founders of this Republic, intended. We in America believe our participation in this war to be the fruitage of what they planted.

The Republicans of Michigan, speaking through their State chairman, say that President Wilson's entry of Henry Ford in the Wolvering Senatorial race will make no difference with Republican plans. Those plans look for the nomination of a straight patriotic Republican, one who never was a pacifist—before or since the war began—one who never contributed money to pay for Democratic advertising, one who has voted more than once in the past twenty years, and each time voted the Republican ticket.

The petition has been placed in the hands of Three mammoth mass meetings have been held Monday, Tuesday and tonight. Editor Trotter of the Guard draft the race petition to Congress and he and his committee are working with determination to get it received by Congress. The speech of W. S. W.

WOOD STANDS STILL IN RANK.

Pleas Made to Congress. Congress is requested to make lynching a crime against the Federal government, and as such subject to the laws of the Federal courts, in a petition unanimously against the National Colored Liberty Congress, which has just closed its sessions here. This and five other requests for the abolition of specific race discrimination in the Senate petitioned as a win-the-war measure. The petition has been placed in the hands of Senator Penrose, and is to be presented to the Senate this week. The colored congress protests that colonization and discrimination against in public and federalings in Federal territory, in public carriers operated by the government in certain States, in the army and navy schools, in the right of suffrage in certain States and in the civil service. The petitioners ask, in view of the military service rendered by their race during the present war, "that our own republic may not be a part of the world not safe for democracy." They request the abolition of races in the military camps. The congress was called for the purpose of laying the cause of the colored citizens before the United States Congress, and the congress gave from 33 states, H. H. Harrison, of New York, was chairman of the congress. William M. Trotter, of Boston, was elected chairman of the national executive committee for the year. The committee will wage an effort to secure the desired legislation. in seeking to wipe out the inconsistency of their country at home and were race loyal In seizing this world opportunity to seek for their race re-assertion, they insisted on proscription, they notified the Chief Executive by sending a written request to him to convene both houses of Congress to hear them and sending a delegation to get his answer. He invited the heads of both houses of Congress by calling them to the Speaker of one and the President of the other to ask for a joint session. And in Speaker Clark they found a responsive hearer right to provide the United States sought the advisement of the government by inviting two members of Congress to address this Liberty Congress. Congressmen Martin B. Madden of Illinois and L. C. Dyer, of Missouri, announced all true Americans at home should be about democracy in the U. S.

While the Revolutionary patrons met to initiate war, those race patrons met at the seat of Government when the nation was divided and without equivocation set forth the denials to their racial element of those rights of democracy to spread which their country was avowedly taking part in a world war. The nation was freed by Liberty Congress' key-note sounded by Maurice W. Spencer, local chairman, the first night, which echoed and reechoed in every speech and in the petition, that when the U. S.

We wish, however, as students and guides of public opinion among our people, to use our every endeavor at the highest point, not simply a passive loyalty, but of active, enthusiastic, and self-sacrificing participation in the war.

For many years it has been the custom to treat colored-people as aliens, although they are more than ninety-green per cent of American birth; and there is a growing tenancy among the colored people to regard themselves as aliens. This is being encouraged by a class of leaders who call themselves "Negroes" and yell about "Negro Kultur" although they have not more than half and often less than one-eighth of Negro blood. Such men ought to stop the "Negro" propaganda and be Americans and demand justice because they are Americans and not by the false assertion that they are "Negroes." They should not have any rights as "Negroes" but every right of an American citizen should be and will be accorded them, if they right for their rights as American citizens by right of birth. SHEER WASTE. In June, 1918, the Census Bureau was still issuing statistics of manufactures for the year 1914. Can anyone imagine any practical use for statistics concerning manufactures after conditions have changed so much as they have in the past four years. Fewer statistics, promptly issued, would be of more value. THE LADY AND THE TIGER. The first enrollment of New York City's women voters has just taken place and 279,566 of them have formally taken on party affiliation. Naturally, the Democratic party, which is in the ascendancy, takes the larger share, gaining 164,722 to the Republican's 96,749. Whether this means the continued domination of Tammany Hall or whether the new voters will exercise their privilege to the purging of the Democratic organization remains to be seen. IS IT FAIR? We are sending millions of our young men, the hope of our nation, abroad to fight for democracy. Meanwhile evidences are plentiful of a transmutation of our government, with a decided trend toward socialism. Is it fair to these young men who are about to shed their blood that democracy may live that we repudiate that democracy in their absence? Are they to return to a form of government for which they did not offer the supreme sacrifice, which they fail to recognize, and which they could not approve? If they are, then it may be that the peace which they helped to force on autocracy in Europe may have to be supplemented by a peace similarly imposed here. ings Stamps ount of money you save as habit of saving a definite the best way to learn to save yourself that you will do it one one else, your wife, your your teacher, that you will or first of the week go by ment needs money to equip our acency.

Burghart Dubois, once crowned leader of the radical, uncompromising contenders for full equality, for identical rights of every kind with all other Americans, has finally weakened, compromised, betrayed the fight, betrayed the cause of his death, some time this man, this former leader, for a time leader of the colored opposition to Dr. Booker T. Washington when he was the spokesman for the colored people accepted by white Americans has been weakening. It was painful for the editor of the magazine he founded this literary genius to lead a movement to see Dr. Dubois lowering his salis. It was the Guardian which first put him forth as the best man to lead the fight for equality, human brotherhood and liberty. But in the crisis, a magazine that has brought her closer to the former head of the "Niagara Movement," the compromise, the surrender, the betrayal is made. Under the heading "Close Ranks" in the July number of "The Crisis," he joined editorial Dr. Dubois, after taking strange statement, "That which German power represents today spells death to the aspirations of Negroes in the market races for equality, freedom and justice, and finally urges "Let us, while this war lasts, forget our special grievances. AND CLOSE RANKS—WITH OUR FRIENDS, THE CITIZENS AND THE ALLIED ACTIONS WHAT ARE FIGHTING For Democracy. There is no need of wasting or mincing words. Any man who in the midst of a world war for world democracy dares, before this country has abolished any of its federal denials of democracy, before a single important civil or political disability is removed by law or the action of the white citizenship, urge his race to forget our special grievances," is not only no longer a radical, he is a compromiser, he is a deserter, he is a rank quitter of the right for rights, better his race in the great crisis and at the time philanthropy, greatest persists in demanding for itself equality and liberty while it fights in the war for democracy for all the THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgment the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than the world, the counten the hearts of friends I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. ON THE RIGHTS OF MAN. Influential colored men in various parts of the country have signed a strong memorial to the President, Cabinet, Congress and the Governors of the states. We quote a portion of it. We are one group of American people than whom there is none more loyal, which is marked out for discrimination, humiliation and abuse. In the great patriotic and humanitarian movements, in public carriers, in Federal service the treatment accorded us is humilating, dehumanizing and reprehensible in the extreme. This persistent and unreasonable practice is but a thrust at the colored man's self respect, the object being not merely to separate races, but to impress us with the idea of supposed natural inferiority. Such demoralizing discrimination is not only a violation of fundamental rights of citizens of the United States, but the persistent segregation of any element of our country's population into a separate and distinct group on the sole basis of color is creating a condition under which this nation can not long endure. When we reflect upon their brutalities and indignities, we remember they are due to the fact that in almost every Southern state we have systematically by law or chicanery been deprived of the right that very manhood suffrage which genuine democracy would guarantee to every citizen in the Republic. The propaganda of filching from colored Americans the ballot is but a supreme effort to insure us and to force our assent there we must be colored man does not, can not and will not agree. Of it our intolerance is cumulative. Against it, we shall exert our righteous efforts until not only every eligible colored man, but every colored woman shall be wielding the ballot proudly in defense of our homes. We are appealing to you neither as vassals or inferiors. Bull Run and Appomattox fixed our status in this nation. We are free men. We are sovereign American citizens—free men who purchased our freedom with our own blood on every battle field and in every battlefield, rights and immunities such as are freely granted to others but systematically refused to us. INSULTS COLORED WORLD. Boston Transcript Commits Treason in Preferring Rue of France Rather Than Mixture of Blood of Colored Races Fighting (Boston Transcript.) However, Tommy Atkins may to a considerable extent be inclined to settle in France. So, very likely, would be the whole body of the Portuguese and the Italians. Thousands fighting the Italians, the laborers may stay, and so may the black soldiers from Senegambia and other African French colonies. Unfortunately the incorporation of most African French population would represent monoreligation and degeneration. France would do better, in the long run, to send them home, for the improved economic or industrial advantage of African France be more than counterbalanced by the disadvantage of the mixture. France amalgamates all racial elements that enter her gates. Her best hope for entering the home reests on such a strengthening of her cultural and moral bases as would result in a normal increase of the native population, and a steady immigration, enterprising young people from North Africa, of whom it would be an island or Ligurian peasants. If the bloom of the French nation should be Africanized or aslaticized as the result of the war the country's eventual defeat would that source would be greater than the damage from the destruction of her cities and the ravage of her fields.

Noted Brooklyn Doctor Says It Causes Mental and Physical Segregation. (From Amsterdam News.) Editor Amsterdam News: Sir: I cannot too heartily congratulate you on a recent editorial discouraging the use of the word "Negro." You are not the white people of the United States today than the spreading use of this unfortunate term. Why? They realize that it is the most potential factor at work at the present to bring about both a physical and mental segregation of the people of color. Its purpose is to make our speakers and writers, especially Do Bois and Washington feel that its repetition, a dauseum, is necessary to retain the good will of the masses. The term "Negro" is not only absurdly as accurate as applied to millions of coloured people, but is injurious, for the following reasons: a. It has never stood historically or in the present, anywhere in the world, for anything noble or uplifting. Most high-grade Africans repudiate it. b. In Africa and out of Africa it was not applied to the higher types, but to Guinea, Sudanese and Senegambians only. c. Its derivatives, "Negroism," "Negrofy," and its compounds, Negrohead, Negro-fly, Negro-monkey, are all clearly in their associations, degraded. d. Its feminine form, "Negress," is justly and correctly used to define your wife and daughter and sweetheart, if you favor the use of the master. e. It has been the word used by the Southern whites for two centuries, when formally speaking or writing about an unworthy or criminal man or woman of the race. For when he wished the worth he invariably says "colorized." f. It is not differentiated in the mind and thought of the whites from their favorite and generally used (among themselves) terms, "Negro," and "Nigger." g. As stated by an eminent Japanese diplomat it has an unquestioned influence in cutting us off from the thought, sympathy and co-operation of the millions of colored Africans, slaves and islanders of the Yonder world. Very truly yours. OWEN M. WALLER, M. D.

These positions are open to both men and women. Representatives of the civil service commission are prepared to define definite information and application blanks. According to the civil service commission, the full extent to which the specialized clerk is needed is perhaps too much, too good, and it is in this class of work that the best opportunity to be of real service to the government at this time.

A Hint to the Wise Which’ Is Sure | to Find Some Takers. * Now, that Capt. Orri:C. Hall is about to leave-St. Paul and, indeed, the United States, on a mission of work, patriotism and mercy which is backed by the government it seems the right thing to do if the people of St. Paul will signify their ap- proval of the man and the job by giv- ing in Mr. Hall’s honor the one and only thing a public benefactor ‘(such as Mr. Hall has long been) would ex- pect and appreciate—a public demon- stration and testimonial. But who shall start the movement? Who can say in which quarter of the. city in which religious, fraternal or social organization Mr. Hall is best known and most liked? He is known, respected and loved by the entire city, except iby the few people or places that shun a universal helper. The hint is this: Why not a central committee organize a general com- mittee and extend thereby to every corner of St. Paul an invitation to, - ¥ a 1 J wy help the acknowledged leading boost- er of all patriotic helpers for any- thing which has helped the individ- ual or the city? ‘Then, who can be looked to for the start? Anybody, anywhere—tead off and others shali be glad to follow in any worthy movement which will do honor to our unerowned and yet mod- est leader. In this case we must be jolly and big-hearted like Captain Hail, in that we shall either lead or. follow as re- quested and doubt not nor stop to confuse the movement with plans which may be best ‘but submitted too late to be adopted.

He entered the school of Pharmacy at the University of Minne sota, but thinking he needed a fuller Knowledge of chemistry, at the end of his first year, he left the Univer. sity and registered the following fall at Macalester College. Here he took his academic work majoring in chem- istry. During his first three years at Macalester, illness of a serious char- acter forced him to give up his stu- -— ., JAMES KIDD HILYARD. dies for two semesters and as in the case with all men who must work their way through, he had his days of darkness; but he proved his met- tle.

On the seventh of June, at the last chapel exercises of the year “Jim- mie” was elected to the Scholarship Society because of the excellence of his college record. And on Wednes- day, June the twelfth, he had the honor of being the second colored graduate to receive a diploma from Macalester College.

Field work on the state telephone Valuation was begun this week in Ramsey County, when a crew headed ‘by Mr. Chas. H. Christilaw, of Glen- wood, as chief, started to make a de- tailed inventory of ali the property of the Tri-State Telephone & Tele- graph Company devoted to the long distance or toll service. The task of appraising the value of the toll lines in Minnesota was imposed upon the State Railroad -and Warehouse Com. mission by the last legislature, and the Commission entrusted the actual work to Mr. D. F. Jurgensen, its Chief Engineer.
