NEW ILLINOIS CONSTITUTION. Although it is not particularly need- ed, Illinois is to have a new constitu. tion. The people, by vote, have de- cided that, and the constitutional con- vention will meet next January with 102 delegates, two chosen from each of 51 senatorial districts of the state. ‘The rewriting of the basic law of the state is a matter of supreme im- portance, as upon its action depends the regranting or rescinding 01 all the inherent and inalienable rights de- manded by freedom in any republie— the right of free speech, a free press, trial by jury, the protection given by the writ of habeas corpus, the right to give bail, the right of peaceful as- sembly, ete. ‘The colored people, knowing the great danger to their rights which the new constitution may mean, have joined their forces and forced the Re- publicans to nominate two strong- well qualified men—Edward H. Mor- ris, lawyer, and Rey. A. J. Carey, min- ister—in a district in which 80 per cent of the voters are colored, so their election is assured, and that they will give good accounts of themselves goes without saying. HINDU SPURNS TITLE. For hundreds of years the native People of India have been oppressed by their conquerors, the British. The first great revolt against British rule was in 1857. This failed and the gen- tle British punished the ringleaders of the plot by tying them to the mouths of great cannons and blowing them to little bits. In recent years the spirit of revolt has again been gaining in strength, but when the great war came the East Indians entered. the conflict and fought with their oppressors to make the world free for democracy. The natives are asking for home rule, but instead of getting that, the restric- tions are more onerous than ever, and 300,000,000 defenceless people are kept in subjection by a British army of 100,000.

AN INFAMOUS STATEMENT. Dr Clarence True Wilson, “general secretary of the board of temperance, prohibition and public morals,” of the ‘Methodist Episcopal Church, ought to be very careful in the stuff he hands out to the public for he has just made @ statement which is not wholly true and which is an insult to one group of American fighters. On the authority of Deets Pickett, research secretary of the board who has just returned from Europe, the as- sertion is made that drunkenness, dis- honesty, immorality and the associa- tion of French women with colored men, are some of the causes for their “dissatisfaction” with France In another column of this issue of THE APPEAL will be found a letter from a St Paul man who is now a soldier in France (thousands of such letters have been received from col- ored soldiers), which shows that the alleged “Young Men’s CHRISTIAN Association” drew the color line, and colored soldiers were continually in- sulted by signs reading, “For White ‘Troops Only” There is no color line in France or any other European country, not even in Germany. The French people treated the colored Americans as if they were human beings. There was no patronizing. —They were treated like men because that is the custom in France. On the contrary the white American soldiers continually insulted and mistreated their colored brothers in arms. To infer that the relations between respecable French women and colored men were immoral is an infamous slur on the French women and an insult to the colored defenders of democracy. It is said that the French demi: ‘mondaines preferred the colored men, and this piqued the white Americans. They did not object to the sin, but the fact that the female sinner -was a French woman and the male sinner an American colored man. ‘The averave white American accus- omed to the infamous, abnormal, un- Christian, and really un-American color line, can not grasp the psychology of the French people who not only have no color line: but cannot com- prehend its meaning, France which gave to the world the Dumas, pere:et fils, judges men by merit not by color. France is true to its motto, “Liberté, Hgalité, Fraternité.” “SAFE FOR DEMOCRACY.” A well-known colored resident of St. Paul who is serving in the United States army now in France sends a letter which gives an {dea of the pres- ent conditions which surround the colored soldiers who fought “to make the world safe for democracy.” As the censorship has not yet been lifted, we withhold the name and address of the writer for fear that he may be punished for sending the letter, which follows: Somewhere in France, June 4, 1919. To the Editor of THE APPEAL: 1 am writing to let you know what our boys are doing in France and what is being done to us. We landed at Sainte Nazaire, a city of 40,000 people, and trained a while under great odds. We were then ordered to the front and were getting ready to go when the armistice was signed. We all wanted to go, as there was not a man in the whole division who had a streak of yellow down his back. ‘We are now located at —, France, that is two companies, and the Med- ieal Corps and the other companies are at different ‘places. The two companies are in charge of two large mess halls and can feed about 8,000 GOD GIVE US MEN. God give us men! A time like this demands Strong minds, great hearts, true faith and ready hands; Men whom the lust of office does not kill; Men whom the spoils of office cannot buy; ‘Men who possess opinions and a will; AE Men who have honor—men who will not lie; Men who can stand before a demagogue And damn his treacherous flatteries without winking! Tall men; sun crowned, who live above the fog In public duty and in private thinking. —J. G. Holland. men in about 25 minutes. The men in the Medical Department look after the sick in the camp and examine the troops that are embarking for home. ‘What we are doing here is not ap- preciated, and there is a great deal of segregation over here. In some places you can see in large letters signs reading FOR WHITE TROOPS ONLY. At the white “Young Men's Christian Association” in camp a col- ored soldier cannot buy anything and when you attend a movie show you are roped off. And why? Just to Abyssinia Sends Greetings to U.

July 15.—Wear- ing red velvet robes heavy with gold and silver trimmings and large silk turbans embroidered with pearls, the special envoys of Abyssinia greeted President Wilson yesterday and con- gratulated him on the conclusion of peace. ‘They then presented With elephant tusks seven feet long, mounted in solid gold, spears and javelins, native garments of the richest and most beautiful materials embroidered in jewels, two gold cups, and a gold box lined with silk containing letters ad- dressed to the president by the Abys: sinian queen, a daughter of Menelik, who is also empress of Ethiopia, and her son, the heir apparent. The envoy who spoke to the presi- dent linked their visit with that of the queen of Sheba to King Solomon. ‘The members of the mission, com- prising the Dedjazmatch Nado, the Kantiba Gabrou, and the Ato Herouy, with the Ato Sinkae, who served as secretary, were presented to the presi- dent by Breckenridge Long, third as- sistant secretary of state. Makes Speech to President. As head of the mission the Dedjaz- match Nado addressed the president as follows: satisfy the Southern white man. The colored soldier has caused less trou- ble than any other soldier in this country, Something ought to be done. We have done our bit toward world democracy and we must enjoy a little of it. We are going to demand it when we return, No doubt you have heard of the faults of the Y. M. C. A. and they are true in the respects that I state. I hope you will take this matter up with some men who have political influence, and make an in- vestigation of the things which exist over here before it is too late. There is another thing we should like to know. Why are colored troops being held in France and then not al lowed to enlist in the Army of Occu- pation? You @ee, these are the things which confront us daily. Al- ways something to hold us down. Our only friend in need is the Red Cross. It is the best organization in France and is everywhere the sol- diers are. The service is good and the prices for their canteen are cheap, and every man who wears the 0. D. uniform is the same to them. This is also true of the Salvation Army and the Knights of Columbus, and when these organizations appeal for money they need it and I hope that every- one who is-able to subscribe will do so. Yours. very truly, It is.outrageous that the conditions described should exist and appeals should be made: to the powers that be to right these wrongs. So far as the ¥. M. C. A. is concerned, THE APPEAL has never had any faith in it. It is one of the greatest fakes the world has ever known and has probably done more to cultivate race hatred than any organization with the word “Christian” as a part of its title. THE APPEAL acknowledges the receipt of complimentary season tick- ets for the Old Home Coming Week and the 300th Anniversary of the ad. vent of colored people in America, to be celebrated in Buffalo, N. Y., Sep tember 8 to 13, 1919. Mr. James A Ross, well known in St. Paul, is Sec retary. ‘The state of Mississippi leads the procession of states in the murder belt, with a record of 7 lynchings in first six months of 1919; Arkansas had 4; Alabama, 3; Florida, 2; Georgia, “Your excellency, we have the hon- or to be the first mission to America to present the congratulations of our country on your work with the allies for the successful termination of the war with Germany. “More than 5,000 years have elapsed since the establishment of the Ethiopian government. In the time of David and Solomon this govern- ment was well known. The queen of Ethiopia, Macada, ruled over all She- ba at that time. She Heard of Solomon. “She heard of King Solomon and came to listen to his wisdom and see the country, and as she returned to her own dominion she proclaimed the religion of the living God. From that time until Constantine the great, Ethiopia has believed in God accord- ing to the laws of the Old Testament. In the time of Constantine Hthiopia became Christian according to the gospel of Jesus Christ, and since that time has fought for her Christianity and independence against the sur- rounding Mohammedans and heath- ens. “Undoubtedly your _excellency Imows more about the history of our race and religion than I am able to tell. 3; Louisiana, 4; Missouri, 1; North Carolina, 2; South Carolina, 1; Texas, + ROBERT R. MOTON. (From the Crisis.) |_ Neither R. R. Moton nor W. E. B. ‘Dubois had the slightest idea that the other was planning to sail for France, December 1, until they met in Wash: ington oma quest for passports, No |Yember 90. They sailed on the Steam: er Orizdba and frankly discussed their | agreements and disagreements. When ‘they reached France, each went about | his own business. Dr. Moton was sent by the President of the United States and the Secre- tary of War to see and talk to colore¢ soldiers. Dr. Du Bois was -sent by the N. A. A.C. P. and the Crisis to gather the historical facts concerning colored troops and to call a Pan- African Congress. On the night before Dr. Moton started out a colored man of national reputation and unquestioned integrity who had been in France six months took him aside and told him frankly the situation: the rampant American prejudice against colored troops and officers and the bitter resentment of the vietims. Dr. Moton’s letters gave him every opportunity. A special Amy Order preceded him, which read: Dr. R. R. Moton, President of Tus- kegee University, will be present in the Divisional area for-the next few days. The Division Commander’ di- rects that commanding officers render all possible assistance in any visit or inspection Dr. Moton desires to make. They will also see that he is accorded every opportunity to make any obser. vation he may wish to make. What did Dr. Moton do? He rushed around as fast as possible. He took with him and had at his elbow every moment that evil genius of the colored race, Thomas Jesse Jones, a white man. ‘Dr. Moton took no time to investigate or inquire. He made a few speeches, of which one is reported by_a hearer as follows: , The address delivered by Dr. Moton fo the men consisted of one or two Jokes by a colored preacher, the as- Surance that the people at home were Proud of them and the manner in which they should act upon their re- turn to the United States, dwelling al- most entirely upon the phrase “Not to be arrogant.” After he had spoken to the men the major iriformed the offi- cers that Dr. Moton desired to hold a secret conference with them. All of- ficers congregated in the office. After being presented to the officers, Dr. Moton stated that he had been sent to France by President Wilson and |Mr. Baker for the purpose of speaking to the colored troops. He also stated that he had just left Paris where he had been in conference with President ‘Wilson and had asked the President his views as to the practical applica- ‘tion of democracy toward the colored man in the United States, but ended by saying: “I was very much pleased with his reply but, gentlemen, | can not quote the President.” After Dr. Moton finished his talk no opportunity was given to the officers to inform him of the conditions that had existed in France, and he did not seek any Information relative to same from any of the officers after the con- ference ended. | Dr. Moton then returned to Paris and met Colonel House, General Per. shing and others, Colonel House told the writer that he urged Dr. Moton to iremain in Paris and that if he would, |Colonel House would give him an op: portunity to appear in person before | the Peace Conference to speak for the black world. Dr. Moton refused to stay, but promised to return. He then went to England and secured an audience with Lloyd George, Prime Minister of England. The destiny of the black race today is in the hands of England and the destiny of England i In the hands of Lloyd George. Yet Dr Moton did not keep his appointment: Rejoice Over America. “AML the people of Bthiopia, know- ing that the United States of Ameri ca, after securely establishing her own independence, has taken upon herself the wonderful duty of assist- ing the allies in gaining equal liberty and independence, rejoiced and prais: ed the American people. “We hope that the friendship with the United States, begun during the reign of Emperor Menelik 1., will con. tinue and develop, and that commerce will be renewed ‘and increased as a result of that friendship. “This is the anxious desire of her majesty, our empress, of the heir apparent to the throne, and of all our people.” President Thanks Envoys. President Wilson said in part: “It gives me great pleasure to wel- come you as a special mission sent by the Abyssinian government to con- gratulate the United States on the vie- tory won over Germany and to re. ceive from you the letters of her im: perial majesty, Zaouditou, empress of Ethiopia, ‘and ‘his imperial highness, Ras Tafferi, heir, apparent to the throne of Ethiopia.” but rushed to catch his boat in order to be present at the Tuskegee Confer. ence. He sailed with Thomas Jesse Jones still watching him, and did not return to Paris or to the Pan-African Conference, which he said he favored and promised to support, No one questions the personal in- tegrity of Robert R. Moton or his kind- ly disposition, but no one friend or foe, can look these facts in the face and not feel bitter. disappointment. Not “Nigger”—Not “Negro.” (Prom the Washinston Bee.) _ Bishop Wilbur Thirkield, in discus. sing colored Americans in'the South Western Christian Advocate, and. in his reply to Irvin S. Cobb, says: “The writer means well, but "he does no seem to know what the term ‘nigger’ that has persisted as a relic of slav. ery and bas in it the sting of liquid fire to every seittespecting Negro, must go.” Yes, and The Bee asserts that not only the word “nigger” must go, but the word “Negro.” We are American citizens, the same as you, although our skin may be dark. ‘The white man manufactured both terms and the Government legalizes them and colored Americans perpetuate them, For God's sake, give both terms a rest, Is Public Spirited. Dr, J. M. Gaston, Chief Pxecntive of the “Presbyterian “Board of Missions for Freedmen,” reports a remarkable gift of a colored woman to the Board. The donor—whose name is not given—is a graduate of Scotia Semi- nary, a Presbyterian school in North Carolina, Left a widow on her own resourees, she courageously opened a rooming house in an Ohio city and accumulated $15,000. Of this she has set aside $5,000 for business capital and the remaining $10,000 she has presented to the Freedmen’s Work of the Presbyterian Church in the U. 8. A. in order, as she said, “More girls may have the same chance I had.” THE MAN WHO DARES 1 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 shail be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.— Charles Sumner. ADDRESS PRESENTED TO PEACE CONFERENCE ADOPTED BY THE NATIONAL COLORED CONGRESS FOR WORLD DE. MOCRACY UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE NATIONAL EQUAL Colored America, through delegates assembled from 87 of the United States of America, sore and bleeding with persecution because of race and color, hails with hope peace with victory, for the motto on the banners of the armies of the victors was “Away with tyranny and {ts injustice every- where.” Speaking for 12,000,000 Colored Americans, the National Colored Representative Assembly for World Democracy under the auspices of the National Equal Rights League congratulate thelr fellow Countrymen and their government on being the instrument by which the God of righteousness turned the tide of battle for the forces of liberty. War Put On World Basis As To The Results. ‘Two hemispheres and the islands of two oceans furnished without regard to race or color the armies of this bloody and terrible war. Shameful it would be if its close did not mark a new humane era. To the President of our Republic, Commander-in-Chief of our army and navy it was given to rame the principles on which the winners fought this war. and its purpose. By his declaration, accepted by France, Britain and the rest openly before the human race, the principles and the aim of this war were put upon a world basis. Secondly those principles and aima wore for the wiping out. of autoc- racy, inhumanity and injustice, and for the establishment of world justice. world humanify and world democracy. Wrongs To Individual On World Basis For Rodress. With the ushering in of the new year, 1919, the nations of the world are assembled to settle the terms of peace for the world, for the establishment everywhere of the principles for which this world war was waged by the forees of democracy. ‘Therefore every denial or violation of justice, humanity and democracy has become a matter FOR CORRECTION AND ABROGATION ON A WORLD BASIS BY A WORLD COURT. Hence Colored America, which furnished 400,000 brave soldiers for this war backed by over 12,000,000 loyal citizens without a traitor, appeals to the allied World for justice and Democracy in the peace settlement. Utterly Undemocratic Treatment Of Colored People of U. 8. A. Citizens by law of the United States of America, tho famous Republic of the West, we first appeal to the civilized world for the discontinuance of all race or class discrimination in the world peace settlement. At this supreme moment in the catise of universal humanity, when wrongs to man should be banished, we must call world attention to the utterly undemo- cratic conditions under which every person of color is forced to live in this country. Because of race autocracy, our color in the Nation's Capital de- prives’ us of every civil right except in public carriers and subjects us to ejection or to the restriction of the Ghetto as employees of the federal government. Otherwise our color in many parts of the country deprives us of every civil, political, social and judicial right; subjects us to obloquy, imposition, deprivations, injustices, eruelties, atrocities, worse in degree than exist anywhere else in Christendom. Segregation in public carriers, dis- franchisement, lynching are essentially violations of that world democracy for which the war was fought. Self-determination For Darker Nations. ‘That the tremendous material and appalling human losses of this world War may not be without result for good, we appeal to the peace conclave to grant self-determination and rights without discrimination to all of the darker nations. The Appeal Sent By Race Petitioners For Universal Abolition Of Color Proscription. On our part wo shall send race petitioners to the assembly of the repre- sentatives of the civilized world meeting to make good the promise of the victors in the world war, to petition for the abolition of autocracy of raco against Colored persons everywhere, and to appeal to this world Court for the discontinuance of color proscription and all distinctions based on color, elvie, political and judicial IN EVERY NATION AS AN ARTICLE OF THE FHACS AGREEMENT, that the world may be remade truly on the basis of the Uberation of the people of the earth, and of the enjoyment by every human being of world democracy. - Else There 1s No “New Day.” For without this there will not be tho dawning of a new day of domoc- racy, nor of @ new era of permanent peace after the most torrible and gigantic war ever known embracing two hemispheres in a death grapple between the forces of autocracy and of democracy, THE COMMITTHR ON ADDRESS.

CORRESPONDENCE TEACHING! 's Now Developed at the University of Minnesota, It was once thought that to gain knowledge in any systematic manner one must put himself under the direct, personal’ supervision of a teacher. Many still think this, and when it is Impossible to do this give up all ef. fort at self improvement. This is’ to call attention to the fact that instruc. tion by correspondence has been de. veloped to meet just such needs as theirs at the State University at Min. neapolis and the work is conducted by the Correspondence Study Depart: ment of the General Extension Divi. sion. The work as at present organized includes preparatory and collere grade courses and vocational courses i, business and engineering subjects. ‘The preparatory courses are of high school grade. The college courses enable one to work for credit toward a degree from the University. As many as half the credits required may be earned in this way. Students who seek university credit must be able to satisfy the entrance requirements of the University, but if credit is not de: sired, any one’ may register for these courses. “Many of them are of general value, dealing as they do with eco. nomics, history, political _ science, sociology, ‘and other subjects of pres ent interest. The vocational courses are practical in their nature and make constant application of the principles they teach. These, as well as the other types of courses, will be in- creased in number and ‘scope as the demand srows VEEK'S RECORD OF HAPPENINGS IN MINNESOTA'S CAPITOL.

Murrell has written a letter to the editor of THE APPEAL from which the following facts have been condensed: Peace having been declared he will shortly return to America. Since leaving St. Paul, his health has been the best and every day has been spent in service to the soldiers furnishing remarkable experiences. He plans to join his wife in Wash- ington and may visit St. Paul, has several offers but has not decided where he will locate. He says that all of the 30,000 dead soldiers at Beaumont, Thiancourt and Ramange cemeteries were buried by colored American soldiers, no white man helped to move one. “A lasting debt of gratitude is due to the colored soldiers from American citizens.” He says that many statements that have been made by speakers and writers, who were not actually on the ground, are not veritable facts. Hav- ing worked in the Verdun sector four and a half months I know the dead there toll a correct story. “[ have spent ten months on the ‘Western front. It has given me a fairly general acquaintance with sec- tors from Switzerland into Belgium, but the facts at hand compel me to speak guardedly. All units alike who faced the Germans have left here on the field, proportionately, their silent representatives.” Pe en, eS a STATE OF MINNESOTA, COUNTY OF Ramsey. ss.
