What the Pioneer Press says editorially about it. Amendment No. 2 to the City Charter to be voted on at the coming election provides that the Charter limitation on the salaries of deputy comptroller, deputy commissioner of finance and auditor in the comptroller's office be removed and that the salaries hereafter be fixed by the city council. The charter at present holds these salaries to $2,000 a year for the first two named and $1,500 for the last. Deputy commissioners in other departments are now drawing $2,800 a year.

A FAIR QUESTION I have been asked why no colored employees are found in the Department of Public Utilities. This is a fair question and I shall answer it frankly. When I took office eight months ago I found no colored employees in the Department. I have filled but few vacancies since I became Commissioner and every position filled was under Civil Service rules. No colored applicant was certified by the Civil Service Bureau for any one of these positions and so far as I know no colored person had made application or taken the examination at the Civil Service Bureau. Frank L. Powers The case of this amendment is clearly one of expediency for the city if not of justice to the men. Such salaries these days are barely on a par with mechanics' wages and well below some of them, while these men occupy positions of responsibility requiring brains, skill, honesty and experience. If their pay is not raised to something nearer their true earning power nothing is more certain than that they will seek other fields of employment and leave their positions to be filled by men not equal to the jobs. It is the duty of the voter to his own interests, then, as well as an obligation of justice to these men that he vote "Yes" on amendment No. 2. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN.. SATURDAY.

THE REAL ISSUE IS SOCIALISM Socialism SAVINGS In the campaign to save St. Paul from Socialism, which is now drawing to a close, the For Home and Country League, an organization of St. Paul Home Owners, Taxpayers and Citizens has during the past three weeks endeavored to hammer home the issue, which is: Shall St. Paul Endorse the Principles of Socialism and Sovietism? At least three candidates for office in St. Paul are avowed Socialists who have in the past openly advocated the principles of the Marx-Engels group, whose teachings as applied by Lenine and Trotzky in Russia have resulted in the establishment of an autocracy of murder, rape, starvation, intolerance, Godlessness, nationalization of women and all the other conditions of savagery and brutality that go with Socialistic teachings put into practical effect. We have shown by the words of Roosevelt, Gompers and other great men that Socialism is a menace to our free institutions—and we have stated and restated the self evident truth that IF ANY SOCIALISTS ARE ELECTED IN ST. PAUL ON MAY 4TH, IT WILL BE AN ENDORSEMENT OF SOCIALISM. The Socialist candidates are consistently avoiding the issue of SOCIALISM—Why? Simply in order to throw dust in the eyes of the voters who are NOT Socialists and to hide the real issue—SOCIALISM.

SATURDAY, MAY, 1, 1920 WHAT A LIE! The amount of bunk just now being offered to the public in advertisements in which quotations from the Bible and the sayings of Christ, are made a conspicuous part, is almost beyond belief. One of the most recent buncolists is the Order of Moose, which has flaring headlines in the papers like these: "MOOSE EXEMPLIFIES SERMON ON MOUNT." "MOOSEHEART IS THE GOLDEN RULE IN ACTION." Down near the end of the advertisements one finds a notice that "ANY WHITE MAN MAY BECOME A MEMBER." Such advertising is a profanation of the "Sermon on the Mount." THE REASON. The Boston Guardian edited by William Monroe Tratter, is the paper which stands first and foremost in the battle against jimcrowism. The following editorial from a recent issue is timely: The reason that a preparatory Y. M. C. A. or civic centre is a step backward is that in the North it means nothing less than an invitation to white men conducting places for public patronage or recreation, to refuse, deny or segregate all colored patronage and point to such an institution as a just reason for so doing, and soon the idea as well as the practice of setting colored Americans off by themselves in all places for public accommodation will spread until, as in many cities throughout the North will be found segregating or denial in theatres, restaurants and such places, until it reaches the public schools. Every attempt to help in any way the singling out of colored Americans as a race, in this country, for whom must be maintained separate places of public accommodation, must be defiantly fought, not even lending ear to the argument so common in cities of the middle West that such separate institutions furnishes "jobs" for our men and women. The colored people can not sell their citizenship rights in education and THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence protest makes cover The human race has test.

THE MOST INFAMOUS IN HISTORY. The stage is all set and when the quadrennial conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church meets in Des Molines, Iowa, this month, it is likely that that most infamous action ever attempted in the history of Christianity will become an accomplished fact. The great event of the meeting is to be the unification of the North and South branches of the church, which separated over the slavery question many years before the slaveholders' rebellion. When the separation took place the Northern branch took a stand for Christianity, humanity and freedom, while the Southern branch stood for slavery. Now after 70 years they are to reunite by casting aside every vestige of Christianity, and segregating the colored members of the church. It is a plan conceived in hell, nurtured and sustained by the devil and a repudiation of the basic principles by the Christ which this great church claims to follow. And the disgusting part is, that some colored men are partners in the infamy. DUMB CANDIDATES The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People announces that fifteen of the seventeen presidential candidates failed to reply to a questionnaire sent them by the Association on February 18, and repeated on March 12, asking their views on seven main issues which colored people regard as fundamental. The questionnaire asked whether they were in favor of the enactment of federal laws against lynching; whether they would advocate Congressional enforcement of the Fourteenth Amendment by reduction of representation of states which disfranchise their citizens, or whether they would advocate as an alternative the appointment of United States Commissioners to enforce the Fifteenth Amendment whether they would endeavor to bring about the abolition of Jim crow cars in interstate traffic; whether they would urge National aid to elementary education without discrimination against colored children: whether they would favor the apportionment of colored soldiers and officers in the army in proportion to their numbers in the population; whether they would abolish radical segregation in the civil service of the United States; whether they would withdraw armed or other interference with the independence of Haiti. The two candidates who replied to the Association's questionnaire were Senators Harding and Poindexter, the former stating that it was not consistent with his views to take up the categorical questions asked by the Association, that conventions are called upon to enunciate platforms and policies and that the candidate selected must be expected to stand on the platform thus made. Senator Poindexter stated that he was "in favor of maintaining legal rights and opportunities of all our citizens, regardless of color or condition." THOMPSON FOR PRESIDENT. Mayor William Hale Thompson of Chicago has triumphed over his many political enemies and has carried 34 THE MAN W I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgmen the countenances o 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. once when we should wards out of men. us climbed on pro- been raised against me and lust, the in- serve the law, and our least disputes. we must speak and right the wrongs of her Wilcox. out of 35 wards in that city thus putting him in complete political control of the second city of the country. By combining with a down-state leader he will be able to control the great state of Illinois and will name the delegates-at-large to the Republican National Convention. The imbecile Republicans who endeavored to read Thompson out of the party, charging him with being pro-German during the war, have been licked to a frazzle. It is very gratifying to THE AP-PEAL to note that Thompson has been able to win in spite of the opposition of the Chicago Tribune, the Chicago Daily News and other hypocritical newspapers, which for political reasons-questioned his loyalty. Mayor Thompson is a great American, absolutely devoid of racial prejudice, the representative of all classes of Americans. He is headed for the White House. THE APPEAL nominates William Hale Thompson of Illinois for President of the United States. The conditions may be such as to prevent his nomination by the convention of 1920, but he may be elected Governor of Illinois, and then U. S. Senator and then in 1928, THE APPEAL predicts he will be the candidate of the united Republican party for President and will be triumphantly elected. THE BEGINNINGS OF SEGREGA TION. The following item from the Chicago Daily Tribune is interesting as showing the various influences which are suggesting and encouraging segregation. "The possibility of Wendell Phillips High school at Thirty-ninth street and Prairie avenue being set apart for colored pupils exclusively," by a natural segregation," was suggested last night by Principal Charles H. Perrine. At the First Presbyterian church, Grand boulevard and Forty-first street. Dr. Perrine spoke at the first of a series of Sunday night community meetings in connection with the Chicago Plan. "Negro boys and girls deserve the best available in the way of teachers and equipment. The district around Wendell Phillips is rapidly becoming settled by colored people, and there are comparatively few white pupils. They are getting fewer and fewer." "The time is near at hand when we shall need another high school farther south to take care of the increased white population there. A modern high school located somewhere near Fiftieth street will be necessary soon and should be included in the Chicago Plan. Wendell Phillips will be then exclusively for colored pupils. They should be given the finest high school possible." The Rev. William Covert, pastor of the First church, announces a series of discussions on Sunday evenings to consider the duty of the church in the development of the Chicago Plan. Like nine out of every ten schemes for the degradation of the colored people it was suggested by a supposed friend and perhaps there is a "nigger in the woodpile." That is perhaps Perrine had talked with some jimcrow "negro" who approved the outrageous plan. There are some jimcrow "negroes" in Chicago and in other cities including St. Paul and Minneapolis. Like the majority of schemes for the degradation of the colored people it was incubated in a so-called Church of Christ. Principal Perrine said that the dis- WHO DARES who in the consci- of his duty dares to world, with ignorant, nt, may condemn, f relatives may be PAID ADVERTISEMENT Prepared by Irving C Pearce, 178 Bates ave.

CLANCY | X Councilman—A. E. SMITH | X Councilman—H. C. WENZEL | X Councilman—J. F. EMME | X trict was becoming settled by colored people and therefore Wendell Phillips High School should be made "colored." That would be an outrageous perversion of the name, for Wendell Phillips was a real Christian white man who devoted his life to work in righting the wrongs of his colored brethren. There are neighborhoods in Chicago inhabited almost exclusively by Italian, Chinese, Poles, Russians and other foreigners, but the thought never comes to Mr. Perrine or others of his ilk to restrict the children in those neighborhoods to "exclusive" Italian, Chinese, Polish or Russian schools. The schools remain PUBLIC schools, open to all. There has been much talk about the "Chicago Plan" and now we are getting some intimation that segregation is to be a part of that plan. However we believe that the thinking colored people of Chicago have their eyes open and will be ready to fight jimcrowization of the schools. One thing that Mr. Perrine said is true: "The colored boys and girls are entitled to the best in the way of equipment and teachers." The colored children have the same rights as other children, no more and no less. To attempt to segregate them is to take from them their birthright. The only way they can get the "best" is to attend the identical schools that other American children attend. A jimcrow school built of gold and studded with diamonds would still carry with it the degradation for which it was designed. "NEGRESS" IS NAUSEATING The following from the Chicago Tribune is a manly protest against the use of a word which is particularly offensive to colored women. OBJECTS TO "NEGRESS." Chicago—(Editor of the Tribune.) in two recent issues you published very fine and highly commendatory editorials on "Race Progress and Common Sense," yet, notwithstanding that, yesterday you state in glaring headlines the "Death of Mme. Walker, Wealthiest Negress." That word "Negress" is nauseating in the eyesight of all colored women and should be eliminated from the vocabulary, in which it has no rightful place. Above all, your paper should be the leader w this regard, if you really have the welfare of the colored race at heart SAMUEL Z. C. WESTERFIELD. The colored men who persist in using "negro" as a race designation are largely to blame for the common use of a word which should be avoided. The colored people of the United States are Americans—that's all. The use of "negro" and "negress" is the cause of many discriminations against the colored people. The word "negress" is nauseating, and so is the word "nogro" when used as a racial designation for the colored people of the United States. COWARDLY BISHOP REBUKED. We reprint from the Cleveland Gazette, edited by Hon. Harry C. Smith, a stalwart and outspoken champion of the colored people, the following rebuke to cowardly colored bishop: BISHOP PHILLIPS WRONG While there is much in Bishop C. H. Phillips' pacifist interview of last Sunday, in the Cleveland News-Leader, to interest the average reader, there is one statement to which about all of the intelligent members of our race will take issue and that is his statement that "the Afro-American does not desire social, political or industrial equality." That is not true, bishop! In this section of the country we want and, in a limited degree, enjoy all three. In the South, our people are asking the last two. "Social equality" is a myth. It does not exist among any class (race) of Americans. It is a matter for the individual to settle and he alone settles it in all cases. And many white and colored individuals (families) in this section of the country have long ago settled it to their entire satisfaction and are enjoying the so-called "social equality," and will continue to do so until "the end of the chapter" regardless of the ranting of southerner if not both and the laws of the political equality, the fundamental law of the land guarantees the latter if not both and the laws of the states are in most cases explicit when it comes to the former. Not only does this race of ours desire them but it demands them and will never rest until they are conceded in every nook and corner of this country of ours. The Afro-American wants and must have everything good every other class (race) enjoys in this country if he is to keep abreast of the times and be able to cope with them in the great struggle of life. In this section of the country, at least, we can stand up and say so—tell the plain invarnished truth and should do so. That it is not advisable for the good bishop to do so because of his residence in the South and because of the large church interests there he represents, we can understand. However, good bishop, please refrain from giving out such interviews here in the North where they do no good but on the contrary have an effect that retards the progress of those of the race in this section of the country. HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS. Some get-rich-quick concerns are endeavoring to persuade patriotic Liberty bond holders, whom they know will not sell outright their Liberty bonds, to turn over their Liberty bonds to these companies as security for a loan and with the money thus borrowed purchase stock in their companies. A Liberty loan bond is the safest investment in the world, and a prudent man will very carefully investigate any effort to induce him to exchange it for a less safe investment. This lending one money on Liberty bonds as security to purchase stock in the lender's company is in many cases only a thinly disguised method of exchanging stock of doubtful value for Liberty bonds of unquestioned value. It is a good business and it is patriotism to hold your Liberty bonds. TURNING BACKWARD. (From the Boston Daily Post.) It may be difficult for many people to believe that the Supreme Court of the United States would render a decision in favor of the "jim crow" railroad car law of any State but it has done so. Monday the great tribunal handed down an opinion upholding the Kentucky separate coach act, requiring the separation of white and colored passengers, and holding that applies to the South Covington and Cincinnati Street Railway and the Cincinnati, Covington and Erlanger Railway Company while operating between points in Kentucky. We do not presume, to try to teach the Supreme Court its business, but it certainly seems that such a decision is going backward in the determination of human rights and privileges. We are told that Judges Van Devanter, Pitney and Day dissented from this ukase, and well they may have. Is It Fair? (From the Monitor, Omana.) To stand before the God of heaven and earth with trumpets and loud voice and proclaim: "Thank God we (U. S.) are not as other people are. We write his books laws granting to all our people equality." Then write other laws abrogating the previous regulations? And when you do not think it feasible to put them in print, simply make it an unwritten rule that serves your purpose as well. To covet your neighbor's goods (rights) and if he should remonstrate with you, to slay him? For a so-called democracy to have two or more interpretations of the same word, each contrary to the other? To assert that a man is incapable of accomplishing a meritorious deed, given him a honest chance for it. To call a man whose distant parents or parent had Negro blood a Negro and a white man whose parents were Indian, Malay or Mongolian a white man still? ? How much should I give to make this a better world? ACERTAIN man in New York filled out his income tax report. It showed an income so large that his tax was 53%. And his total gifts to church and charity for the year were $148. Think of it—thousands spent for luxuries and pleasure for himself; and $148 to leave the world a little better than he found it! Most of us do better than that; but not so very much better. Our average daily gift for all church causes is —less than we spend for daily papers —less than a local telephone call —less than a third of the day's car fare —less than 3 cents a day No wonder that are paid less than the church hospice people a year.

Cc lewd Ls J, 0, GEDERBERG CITY COMPTROLLER Under the new charter the City Comptroller is charged with the duty of submitting the tax budget. ‘The City Council’ has no power to in crease his estimate more than 3 per cent. Since the new Charter took effect the cash reserve has decreased one million dollars, the floating indebted ness has increased four million dollars and the tax levy has increased from $3,200,000.00 to. $7,800,000.00 or close to 80 mils for 1921. Cost of “general government” has increased over 200% Number of employees in accounting and financial offices alone increased from 25 in 1914 to 81 in 1917. Through lack of precaution on the part of the Comptroller, the City is going begging If elected it will be my aim to re store the City’s credit, wipe out the floating indebtness, decrease the inter est charges, prevent increase in the tax rate, keep straight records, en: force the charter provisions and’ pre vent theft and graft—without any in crease in office force or appropriation. I approve of the “City Bank” if it is properly managed. I will prevent the gambling in banks of outside munici alities. It is the people's own fight for better financial conditions. “ J. O. Cederberg, Candidate for City Comptroller, is an expert accountant. After serving 3 years as head book- keeper for Mr. Otto. Bremer, City Treasurer, he was, 15 years ago ap- pointed by Governor J. A.

TO WHOM THIS MAY CONCERN, St. Paul, April, 22, 1920. Mr. Editor: My attention has been called to the fact that it is being circulated around that I am personally opposed to the re-election of Mr. Hodgson for Mayor. This is an absolute distortion of the truth, and I want the public, and particularly my friends to know that an attack of that nature is either based on ignorance, or is a cowardly attempt to discredit the friendly relations that exist between the present city officials and myself. My position as one of the senior architectural 'men' in the employ of the city has never depended on politics. My appointment five years ago was the result of a competitive civil service examination in which I ranked first on the list. My retention and promotion from time to time has been good and so far succeeded in properly and efficiently taking care of my work. I have served under three different commissioners, and have been promoted by each of them, including the present Commissioner of Parks., Playgrounds and Public Buildings. As a citizen of St. Paul, I have the right to my own personal convictions in reference to how and for whom I shall cast my vote and I challenge any attempt to abridge my personal rights in such a matter. I am perfectly able to follow the record of all candidates up for election and to perceive my vote for those whom I feel have done so and continue to work for a safe and sane administration of municipal affairs; who will unalterably stand for fair play to all classes; who will advocate an economical expenditure of the people's money in the upbuilding and beautifying of our city. I believe in the theory of practical organization for any people, and that of course includes us. C. W. Wigington ORDER FOR CREDITORS TO PRESENT CLAIMS, ETC. STATE OF MINNESOTA COUNTY OF RAMEY—ss.
