The Appeal

In business, fortunes are not realized Unless your goods are amply advertised. Crafts Which Once Flew the Double Eagle Crippled by Plotters. IMPERATOR IS ONE VICTIM Giant Vessel Develops List at Sea—Bombs Found on Washington—Moccasin Sunk and Callao Disabled. New York.—Former German liners and cargo ships, now being operated under the United States flag, appear to have become the objects of sabotage by Germans or "reds," who are determined that the craft that formerly flew the double eagle shall not prove of great value to a nation that helped to overthrow Germany. Great Britain is said to be following similar claws, some of which indicate that the attacks on shipping may be the result of the spread of communism and soviet teachings to the ranks of the International Seamen's union, which controls the men on the ships under the American and other allied flags. The four most aggravated cases which are being considered involve three American vessels and the Imperator, which is flying the flag of the Camard line since she was turned over to England by the United States. The United States ships are George Washington, on which President Wilson traveled to and from the peace conference, and the cargo carriers Moccasin and Callao. Attempts to Damage Ships. The Imperator, while on a trip to Europe early in March, developed a mysterious list while at sea, which her officers and crew were unable to remedy. It is held to have been caused by a deliberate attempt to disable the giant liner. The Moccasin turned turtle in the Erie basin several months ago. When divers investigated they found her seacocks had been opened and so tampered with that it was impossible to close them. Several bombs were found on the George Washington several weeks ago just before she was scheduled to sail for Europe. The Callao, on her recent arrival at Río de Janeiro, was found in an unseaworthy condition as the result of deliberate tampering with her machinery. VIA CRUCIS RITE IS REVIVED Rome Again Witnesses Ancient Ceremony of the Cross in the Coliseum. Rome, Italy.—After an interval of fifty years, the Coliseum again has been the scene of the picturesque ceremony of the Vina Crucis. Pope Benedict XIV, who reigned from 1740 to 1758, instituted the ceremony by placing a cross in the center of the arena where martyrs had given their lives for the faith, and erecting fourteen stations of the cross. Each Friday the ancient amphitheater witnessed the solemn rite. The practice was abandoned in 1870, when Rome became the capital of united Italy. The celebrants have once more visited the Coliseum, however, and arrayed in their strange gray garments, which include a cowl covering the head and face, have revived the ceremony of old time. Princess Barberini led a column of women, and among the men taking part in the rite were many from patrician families. Farmer, Plowing Up Snake Den, Killed 47 Reptiles. Peter Neyen, while plowing on a farm near Tipton, Ia., turned over a den of snakes. Neyen run for a grubbling hoe, which was nearby, and with it dispatched the reptiles. There were 15 snakes in the bunch, and they were of every kind and color. Making another round of the field and coming to the same place, Neyen turned over another big roll of snakes, which he immediately killed, and this time the number was 32, making a total of 47 snakes in the bunch. The snakes measured from 15 to 18 inches in length. The only kind missing was the rattlesnake. Concrete Home for Birds Philadelphia.—Dr. B. H. Warren is having a concrete tree built on his lawn at West Chester, Pa., to provide homes for birds. The tree is upon a wire frame 15 feet high. Holes of different sizes will lure the birds to nest and rest. At the base of the tree will be a large concrete bath to provide the guests with running water at all times. Imitation limbs on the "tree" will give perching accommodations. Vicar on War Slang. London.-Rev. J. Cartmel-Hobinson, vicar of Bedford Park, favors the use of war slang. In his parish magazine he cites "lead-swinger" "funkhole" and "skrilmanker" as good examples. "We church folk, engaged in the holy war, are more polite than expressive," he said. "We prefer archate language which has lost its point by long use. We eling to respectability even if it means nothing, and can neither curse nor bless." BUILDS GIANT PLANE Caproni's Latest Machine Will Carry 100 Passengers. Seaplane Is Now Almost Ready In Italy for Its Trial Flights. New York.—An enormous seaplane to carry 100 persons is the latest project of Gianni Caproni, famed Italian constructor, now in this city. All except the finishing touches have been put to the machine, and when Caproni returns to his native land in about six weeks he expects to find the plane completed and ready for its experimental flights. These will be made on Lake Maggiore, near Milan, where the airship is being built. In this venture the Italian inventor has been forced to summon American genius to his aid. For the seaplane will be driven by eight Liberty engines, developing a total of nearly 3,000 horse power. "This will greatly increase the co-efficient of safety," Caproni said to me, "for it will be possible for the plane to fly with only five of the engines going." Comfortable seats will be provided for passengers in this gigantic flying machine, which, if the plans of its designers are successful, should be able to cross the Atlantic with ease.

London—Examination of old masters is the latest use to which the X-rays have been put: At the royal institution Maj. J. M. C. Kays showed two pictures by Dutch masters, one representing the Madonna and another the Crucifixion. In the former the Madonna appeared to be looking at something which was non-existent on the canvas, but a radiograph examination, proved that the missing something was a child, which a former owner of the picture had evidently disapproved and had painted out. In the second picture a woman in an attitude of prayer was discovered to have been painted over what was the original figure of a man in monkish garb. FOOD COSTS MORE SINCE 1913 England, Italy and Germany Have Greater Increase Than United States. Washington.—The family food budget last February was exactly twice the sum expended for the same articles of food in February, 1913, according to department of labor statistics. During the same period in Great Britain the increase was 130 per cent, while in Italy it was 187 per cent. Germany outranked all countries enumerated, with an increase of 224 per cent. Increase in prices of clothing in Germany exceeded 1,000 per cent. A man's suit which before the war cost $20, now sells for $238. Movie Theater for Church Reading, Pa.—Plans for changing a moving picture theater into a church one day in the week are being worked out by Rev. Edward F. K. Curran. The priest was sent to this city to take charge of a new parish being formed in the northwestern part of Reading. The first mass will probably be celebrated soon there. The new church will be known as St. Margaret's. Rev. Mr. Curran comes from Philadelphia, where he was formerly of the Church of St. Anthony of Padua, Gray's Ferry road and Fitzwater street. THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN.. SATURDAY. MAY 22. 1920 COAST TO COAST AIR MAIL LINE Government Officials Plan to Have Service in Operation Soon. UNCLE SAM WILL MAKE PROFIT Planes Will Carry Letters From New York to San Francisco in 38 Hours —Lay Route as the-Crow Flies. Washington—Uncle Sam will soon have an air mail route from New York to San Francisco. Congress has just increased the aerial appropriation to $1,415,000, an increase for the 1920-21 fiscal year of $604,500, to be used for this project. This will mean that soon it will be possible to mail a letter in New York at 6 p. m. Saturday and get it to San Francisco by 8 a. m. Monday. By rail the same letter could get there no sooner than 8 a. m. Wednesday, more likely Thursday. The postage will be 2 cents. To get a straight fifty-word message through by wire costs $4.70, a night letter $1.30, or a ten-word straight message $1.30. At the same time, Uncle Sam will make a profit on the letter. The air mail routes already established are from New York to Philadelphia; New York to Cleveland, with a stop at Bellefonte, Pa; Cleveland to Chicago, with a stop at Bryan, Ohio. Chicago to Omaha, with a stop at Iowa City. As the Crow Flies. The route is going as straight as a crow can fly toward the coast. With the new appropriation at an early date the route will be extended from Omaha to Cheyenne, to Salt Lake City or Ogden, to Reno, to Sacramento and to San Francisco. The first branch route will run from Chicago to St. Louis, which service is to be inaugurated as soon as the factory delivers the planes, which have been ordered for some time. In due time, when appropriations are made, this line will be extended on south to New Orleans. At the present time twin motor DeHavilands and single motor DeHavilands, capable of carrying 650 and 400 pounds of mail, respectively, are being used. They will be transferred to new routes and Martin and Thomas Morse planes, 1,500-pound capacity, especially built for mail service, will be put on the New York-Cleveland and Cleveland-Chicago routes. The air mail business is growing by leaps and bounds, despite the fact that it is carried for the same rate as other mail. The experiment has been so successful that Postmaster General Burleson looks eagerly to the time when all first-class mail will be carried by airplanes. "An airplane can put a cumbersome mail-distributing coach out of business," is the way one aerial mail division attache expressed it. "Several of these distributing coaches have been eliminated between Washington and New York. The airplane simply carries the mail, from the south, destined for New York, from Washington on. It arrives in New York early enough to be distributed at the postoffice to the carriers for the day's delivery. New York to Chicago in nine hours. New York to Chicago in Nine Hours. Mail leaving New York at 6:30 a.m. m. by air reaches Cleveland at 12 noon eastern time (8:30 p.m. by mail) Chicago at 3:15 central time (by rail at 4:30 the next morning). Air mail leaving New York at 9 a.m. m. reaches Washington at 11:36 a.m. and by rail it arrives at the capital at 3 p.m. Five Martin planes have been delivered to the government. They cost about $40,000 each. Four 1,500-pound capacity Thomas Morse planes are being constructed, and when they are delivered the Chicago-St. Louis branch will be established. The postoffice department now has forty-five planes and twenty-five flyers. When the routes are extended to the coast it will have eighty planes. Since the service was started May 15, 1918, six pilots have been killed. There are forty-two letters to the pound. A Martin or Thomas Morse plane can carry mail on which $1,200 ordinary postage has been paid, to say nothing of the stimulant the raplu service offers to persons to send letters special delivery. All special mail is supposed to go by the quickest means. The extra profit to Uclem Sam in a special is 2 cents, the boy on the bicycle receiving 8 cents for delivering it. This would make the gross revenue for 1,500 pounds of special delivery mail $2,520. Magpies Attack Cattle. Deadwood, S. D.—Reports from the Limestone district of the northern Black hills, say maggies prove a real menace to the live stock. Maggies prefer fresh meat to carrion and when carcasses of dead animals are not to be obtained will attack sheep and cattle. It is said that hundreds of these miniature vultures will circle in the air and then alight on the animal in hundreds and ferociously eat holes in the most tender places. Finish of a Monkey Faced Owl Bardstown, Ky.—A fine specimen of the monkey faced owl was killed here in a battle with crows. It measured three feet, tip to tip, and was of bright golden plumage mottled with gray, its eyes being surrounded with long silky feathers of white. BLASTS OPEN CANAL Prince Connects Lake Caprolace With Mediterranean. Noted Italian Engineer Uses 50 Tons of Explosives and 1,200 Bombs in Undertaking. Rome.—Don Gelasio Caetani, a brother of Prince Caetani, the American trained engineer who laid the mine which blew off the top of the mountain Col di Lana during the war, burying hundreds of Australian soldiers beneath it, has just dynamited a canal into existence from Lake Caprolace to the Mediterranean sea. The work was undertaken by direction of the prince, also known as the duke of Sermoneta, head of the Roman Campagna and Terracina, a region which the prince has labored for years to reclaim. On the seashore of this strange volcanic region there are three lakes or lagoons, called Fogliano, Monaci and Caprolace, communicating with each other, into which at high tide all kinds of fish find their way, remaining there to breed and fatten for the Roman market, to which every day some ten to forty hundred-weight are shipped. Only one, that of Fogliano, is directly connected with the sea, and in order to unite that of Caprolace with the neighboring Mediterranean, and to greatly increase the yield of fish, Prince Caetani decided to explode a series of mines so as to form a canal between this lake and the sea. The undertaking took fifty tons of explosives and 1,200 large bombs, or five times as much as was required to destroy the mountain top. It was successful, opening a channel to the sea. 'SEND US OIL.' FRANCE APPEAL Twice President Wilson Saved Country From Grave Danger, It Is Shown. Paris.—Importations of oil would be subjected to government control and oil would be sold in France at prices fixed by the cabinet under the terms of a section of the tax bill being considered in the chamber of deputies. The limited monopoly in oil now held by the government would be extended until the first of next year. Discussion of the proposal in the chamber this week has brought out the fact that France was in grave danger during the war of a shortage of fuel and lubricating oils and that Premier Clemenceau had to appeal directly to President Wilson on two occasions. Profits on oil imported during the war were very large, it was charged, and there was sharp criticism of the Standard Oil company and the British Shell corporation in this connection. "Crocodile" Eggs Cause Rush for Antidote. London.—Practical jokers find the English easy prey. A large number of persons, mostly women, in Newcastle were hoaxed by a stranger who started the report that eggs of a peculiar color, which had been sold over the week-end in local shops, for 5 cents aplce, were crocodile eggs from Egypt, and poisonous. The only cure for those having eaten the eggs, he said, was peppermint, and there was a rush for the drugstores. One chemist was visited by fifty women who would not leave until they had each been given a dose of peppermint. The eggs came from Denmark. 1,500 DOG TEAMS PASS POST 832 Men Sheltered at Manitoba Stopping Place During the Past Winter. The Pas, Manitoba.—Sixteen hundred freight teams and 1,500 dog teams passed a stopping place at Rocky lake during the winter, according to the landlord of the stopping place. This is the main trail to Filn-Flon mine. The landlord, Sam Cook, an Indian war veteran, adds that 832 men stopped with him overnight. He collects 25 cents from each team that puts up there and 25 cents from each traveler who eats there. Sam furnishes the dishes, water and fire only, and his wife looks after these items while Samuel garners in the fees. If there is any grub left the mushrers usually leave it for their host, and in this way his expenses for feeding himself, wife, two children and a tribe of relatives are kept down materially. Yes. It Was a "Strad." Parrottsville, Tenn.—H. C. Blazer found an old violin in the garret of his home here, where it had been undisturbed for half a century. He found it was a Stradivari and was made in 1719. Dust had covered the name on the inside. Blazer doesn't know how the violin came into his family's possession. No Harps and Viols for Her.

Hundreds visited her to offer congratulations. IS SWEPT BY DEADLY TYPHUS Two Million Cases in Russia Conditions in Poland Appalling. U. S. RELIEF BOARD SWAMPED Several of Its Officers and Men Have Died, Among Them One in Charge at Tarnopol—Shortage of Supplies. Warsaw.-General Petlura's Ukrainian government, which, despite its amazing weakness, remains the nearest approach to organized authority that exists between the East Galician frontier and the Dnieper, has sent its minister of public works, Mr. Bezalko, to Warsaw to appeal for assistance in fighting the incredible typhus conditions in the Petlura country. He reports that 10,000 men, the remnants of Petlura's Ukrainian force, have been stricken with the disease and that the 30,000 men of the East Galician army, commanded by Pavienko, who from time to time have co-operated with Petlura, are in an almost equally bad plight. About half the cases have proved fatal. Hands Are Occupied. It is virtually certain that the Poles will not be able to give assistance to the Ukrainians because their hands are more than occupied in combating the spread of the disease in Poland. There is some typhus in Warsaw—5,000 cases perhaps; Dvinsk, recently captured from the baskhevliak, is in an appalling condition; the epidemic has swept in violent form as far west as Cracow, where the normal activities are half paralyzed; in most of the villages on the eastern frontiers more than half the inhabitants are sick and there is a disturbing amount of typhus in the army. Where 20 fumigating machines are needed, the Poles have one; where a gallon of carbolic acid is required they have a gill. The American typhus commission, which, with 5,000 men and 750 officers, came here last summer to prepare to combat the disease this winter, has been overwhelmed; even the vast supplies the commission brought have proved insufficient. Several officers and men of the commission have died, including a colonel who was in charge of the work at Tarnopol. So there is small prospect that Petura can find any help here. Reliable reports indicate that soviet Russia is being devastated by the disease. In the recent exchange of prisoners between the Poles and the bolshevik, there arrived here a Doctor Czechowitz, who over a year ago was impressed into the bolshevik service as a sanitary expert and assigned to the work of dealing with typhus. He says that in March of last year there were 1,340,000 known cases of typhus in bolshevik Russia and that conditions this year are worse than last year. He estimates that there are now at least 2,000,000 cases in Russia. The Soviet government has almost no facilities for controlling the disease and comparatively few physicians are available to care for the sick. In consequence the percentage of deaths is now enormous, Czechowitz says. Usually Follows War. Such an epidemic as the present one almost inevitably follows a period of war in central Europe. It is to be attributed to insufficient food supplies, weakening the resistance of the people, and to lack of clothing, frequently making cleanliness difficult even for the moderately well-to-do and impossible for the poor. A common assertion is that typhus is as great a menace to social quiet as bolshevism. But competent observers here do not believe this. The people of this part of the world, they argue, have come through centuries to accept the peril of typhus as an unescapable concomitant of life. Certainly from Poles one hears little utterance at present conditions; it is only those who have known Western civilization who are shocked by the spread and virulence of the disease. The Polish cabinet has reached no decision on the proposal to quarantine the country and it is hoped that suspension of the railroad service for two weeks, because of the coal crisis, may have a favorable effect upon the typhus situation, which could never have attained the proportions it has if travel had been supervised and restricted a month ago. CURE FOR PLANT DISEASES Botanists at Cambridge University, England, Claim to Make Vegetation Immune. Cambridge, England.—Cambridge university botanists claim that it is now possible to breed disease-proof plants. A special body of investigators who have been devoting themselves to the practical testing of the Mendelian heredity law are engaged in immunizing wheat, oats, barley, potatoes and roots, the results of which will be shown in the summer to a distinguished assembly of medical men. The "plant doctors," as they are called, have already succeeded in breeding a new wheat known as "yeeman" which has yielded 12 quarters (06 bushels) to the acre—three times an ordinary crop. ENDS 150-YEAR FEUD Trouble Started by Dog Has Just Been Settled. Egyptian Authorities Interfere When Two Villages Engage in Bloody Battle. Cairo.—An assize case has ended which is one of the most remarkable held in Egypt for years. It originated in a vendetta, not between families—but between two whole villages, Hamidat and Ashraf, near Keneh, Upper Egypt, northeast of the rulns of Thebes. One hundred and fifty years ago a dog from the village of Hamidat bit an Ashraf man, who died. A quarrel followed between his relatives and the owner of the Hamidat dog, which developed till all the inhabitants of Ashraf considered that all persons of Hamidat blood were guilty of the death. The hatred of one village for the other became hereditary, and assassination was common between them whenever the conditions of the country favored disorder. Last spring Ashraf attacked Hamidat in force. A score of Hamidatians were killed, 120 houses were burned and harvests were carried off. Hamidat remembered the dog and bit back, killing 16 of the assailants. These slayers have just been tried, 71 accused being brought up and one lawyer briefed for every five persons by the defense. Twenty-one received sentence of 10 years' penal servitude. It is noteworthy that the vendetta did not include women, who during 150 years had indulged only in verbal warfare. "EVERYBODY A SWIMMER" The "two point side carry." A splendid method of carrying an exhausted swimmer to safety, as demonstrated by the American Red Cross, whose "Water Safety" throughout the United States will, they feel, be a means of saving many persons who otherwise might pay the penalty of carelessness or ignorance in the treacherous waters of our lakes, rivers and oceans. Through every water's port organization the Red Cross seeks to spread the gospel, "Everybody a swimmer—every swimmer a life-saver." WHO STOLE DINOSAURUS? Theft of Giant Skeleton From Patagonia Frets Buenos Aires Official. Buenos Aires.—Who stole the great Patagonian dinosaurus? This is a question the newspapers are asking, and it is also a question with which Dr. Carlos Ameghino, director of the Buenos Aires Museum of Natural History, would like to have answered. The dinosaurus, or rather its skeleton, was not stolen from the museum, it should be explained, but from the soil of Patagonia, near Nequen, where, in a remarkable state of preservation, it was discovered by some English engineers a year ago during the excavation of an irrigation ditch. They notified Arthur Smith Woodward, naturalist of the British museum, of the find, who, in turn, communicated with Dr. Ameghino. From the description of the engineers it appeared the dinosaurus was a monster, even for dinosaur, and of a new species. Thieves Stripped Distillery Gauville, Md.—On their sixteenth visit to the warehouse of the Fairchance distillery thieves took the last drop of 45 barrels of liquor left at the distillery at the time war-time prohibition became effective. It is believed that the distillery was the most robbed whisky warehouse in the United States. It is located in a rather lonely spot. The whisky taken is valued at between $30,000 and $40,000. Mine in His Back Yard Webb City, Mo.-Back yards here are being turned into mining fields as a result of the operations of Joseph Lewis at the rear of his Liberty street home. Sinking a shaft 80 feet deep Lewis uncovered both lead and zinc deposits. The lead alone pays expenses. In the last week he shipped a carload of zinc ore.

United States Scientists Give Startling Facts Gleaned From Investigation. Claim Vice President Marshall's Adopted Son Killed by Lack of Nutritious Food—Proper Diet Is Needed. Washington.—The high cost of food is killing thousands of Americans and undermining the health of thousands of others. This is the deduction made by scientists connected with the government, whose job is to figure out just what kinds of foods are necessary to sustain the human body. The reason for the H. C. L. casualty list is that the most expensive foods are the ones necessary to good health. Economical shoppers select the cheaper food and thereby deprive themselves and their families of life-sustaining elements. The disease that develops is called acidosis. It is not a new disease, but its prevalence in America has developed in the last five years. The word "acidosis" is so new that it hasn't got into the dictionary. Children Most Susceptible The disease is more prevalent among children. It was the malady that killed Vice President and Mrs. Thomas Marshall's adopted son. That child had been properly cared for after the Marshals adopted him, but he was undernourished before he fell into such fortune hands and several years' of proper feeding failed to restore his health. "Bread and other starchy foods are the cheapest," said Dr. Carl Vogeltin, professor of pharmacology, government hygienic laboratory. "For this reason they are consumed more extensively. They are the foods that, used to excess, bring on acidosis." The principal symptom of acidosis is abnormality in breathing. The respiration is more difficult because the lungs are trying to eliminate the excess of poison. What is the preventive or remedy for acidosis? Sometimes doctors give bicarbonate of soda or magnolia—alkalines that neutralize the acids—to prevent acidosis after operations, after other anesthesia or relieving established acidosis or diabetes. Proper Diet Needed. But to keep from getting acidosis there is a better way. The necessary alkalines can be taken into the body in a mixed diet, containing green vegetables, fruits and milk. "One cannot emphasize too much the value of milk, fresh vegetables and fruits," declared Doctor Voeglin. "From these foods one gets sodium and potassium carbonates and other inorganic salts that are absolutely necessary in neutralizing the acids if one is to keep well. The juices contain the alkalines the body needs. We should have them regardless of cost, for it is not economy to save money and ruin our health. "The starchy foods, such as cakes, pies, hominy, hot cakes, biscuits, bread and potatoes should never make up more than 50 per cent of the menu, and should be much less, if possible. People should eat lettuce, cabbage, spinach, carrots, turnips, onions, apples, pears, oranges, grapefruit and other fruit and vegetables. "String beans contain about the right proportion of foods and we should eat all we can get of them. The people now eat a half-pound of meat a day per capita, which is just 100 per cent too much. Sugar is a luxury that could be entirely eliminated with no bad effects. The best rule to follow is a mixed diet, with emphasis, especially now that summer is near, on the green vegetables and fruits and milk and its producers, and eat plenty of food at regular intervals." Wolves in Manitoba Meet Trains, Claim Winnipeg, Man.—According to Christopher Possett, station agent at Gunton Village, a short distance from here, the only thing wolves don't insist on doing in his town is voting. Possett was here to get provincial permission to carry a gun and says the wolves know the railroad timetables as well as the chief dispatcher and come in droves to meet the incoming trains. He was given the permit, bought a gun and loaded up with enough ammunition to last him a year or two. Returns Watch. Pittsburgh, Pa.—Another "honest" thief has made his appearance here. This time a watch taken from a hold-up victim was returned to him. According to J. S. Miller, he was held up and robbed of $7 in cash and a watch and chain which was a family heirloom. A few days later Miller noticed something hanging from the knob of his front door and upon investigation discovered that it was his watch and chain. J. Q. ADAMS, EDITOR AND PUBLISHER ST.

BUILDING A PLATFORM. For many years the Republican party has been indifferent to its faithful allies, the colored people, and even since the party is in power in Congress, efforts of good Americans to get the Republican party to eliminate jimcrowism from legislation have failed. Now the platform makers are at work in Washington. The press dispatches tell of many tentative planks, but there is the usual silence about fundamental rights which are of more interest to a group of about 13,000,000 Americans than anything else. There are colored members of the advisory committee, but we have not been able to learn that they have done anything. Is it possible that they are jimcrow men who are willing to keep their mouths shut when it is time to speak? THE APPEAL believes that there should be a short and strong plank, with no reference to "the colored man" or "the Afro-American" or "the Negro," but a demand for exact justice for all American citizens and should include: 1. The enforcement of the Constitution of the United States. 2. A national anti-lynching law. 3. Abrogation of racial segregation in the civil service of the United States and in the Army and in the Navy. 4. Abolition of the jimcrow car in interstate travel. There must be no evasion. Let the Republican party speak out plainly for equality of citizenship. If the advisory body will not hear, the fight must be carried to the Republican national convention at Chicago and an attempt made to get an equal citizenship plank in the platform or know the reason why. Beautiful blue posters all over the country say: "JOIN THE NAVY For honorable service, travel, sure pay, trade instruction, excellent promotion" and so on ad infinitibunktum. One-eighth of the citizens of the United States are barred from general THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence protest makes cover The human race has test.

When a citizen of dark complexion tries to enlist he is told that he can only enter as a servant. Thus the United States government lies and insults a group of its patriotic citizens. Isn't it enough to give one the blues? MADDEN NEARLY MOBBED The statement that the Confederates of the days of the slaveholders' rebellion were traitors, made by Martin B. Madden, member of Congress from B. Madden, in the House of Representatives at Washington, almost provoked a clash the other day. Mr. Madden reiterated his statement and said that he had no apology to make and asked: "Does anyone deny it?" There was uproar from the Democrats, several Southern members shouting, "Yes," and "You're a liar." Representative Romje of Missouri arose and started toward Madden, as did Representative Johnson of Mississippi, but both stopped short, as Southerners are wont to do, unless it is a mob of 1,000 masked men ready to burn a defenceless prisoner at the stake, in which case they are remarkably brave. Madden turned again to the Democratic side and said: "They were traitors. You say no, and I say yes. They did try to destroy the Union." In these recent years with Southerners like Pitchfork Tillman, et al, it is refreshing to see men like Madden who can not be bluffed by Southern bluster. Madden told the truth and the Southerners know it. "ONWARD, CHRISTIAN SOLDIER." THE APPEAL of May 1, contained the following editorial: The stage is all set and when the quadrennial conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church meets in Des Moines, 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 remite 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. We learn from the press dispatches that the trick has been turned and the infamous scheme consummated, and the great M. E. church has torn down the banner of Christ, who taught the equality of races, and has substituted a black flag. Two "negro" bishops having been elected. That would be all right if they were to be real bishops with identical powers of the white bishops, but they are not and it never was intended that they should be equal. Their powers are limited and they are to preside over "negro" conferences only. The most 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 th world, the countena the heart of friend 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. has 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 er Wilcox. nauseating thing of the whole business is the fact that some of the colored men in the church supported the plan and are rejoicing that they have been officially and permanently segregated and declared inferior. In this country there is a great organization known as the A. M. E. church. It is a monument to the manhood of Richard Allen, who refused to be jimcrowed and founded the A. M. E. church. The colored people in the M. E. church could have joined with the A. M. E.'s but it seems that the people preferred to remain where they are segregated. Now that the M. E. church has repudiated the teachings of Christ and unfurled the banner of jimcrowism, the choir will please sing, "Onward, Christian Soldier!" "HONOR" NOW OLD STUFF Because the students of the Northwestern University at Chicago have "cribbed" and otherwise cheated during examinations, regardless of the operation of the "honor system," the faculty has announced the abolition of the honor scheme. Dean Roy C. Flickinger of the college of liberal arts said the students had failed to be worthy of the trust which the honor system had imposed upon them. With the example of their elders engaged in all kinds of dishonesty it is not strange that the young people have followed along the crooked path. A tough old world this and getting tougher and tougher every day. INSISTS UPON SEGREGATION. It seems that the War Department is determined to continue its jim-crow policy. For sometime the people of Massachusetts have been endeavoring to have colored men admitted to all branches of the army, but the administration at Washington insists that Americans of different complexion must not fight together in defense of Old Glory and that it is the "patriotic duty" of colored Americans to be satisfied with jim-crowism. In a recent letter to Governor Calvin Coolidge of Massachusetts, Secretary Baker of the War Department "regretted" that nothing could be done "as a departure would have to be made from the War Department's policy of maintaining separate divisions for white and colored troops." The letter ends with this paragraph: "It is believed that the colored citizens of Massachusetts should be reminded that it is the better part of patriotism to volunteer for such services as may be required rather than to attempt to lay down conditions which the War Department must meet before services can be expected of them." When the world war was on colored American soldiers fought and died for the native land, although subjected to the most infamous discriminations and humiliations, and they would fight again if their country was menaced, but we do not believe that they ought to enlist at all in time of peace unless there is a radical change in the jim-crow policy which ruled during the world war. 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 who in the consci- of his duty dares to world, with ignorant, ant, may condemn, of relatives may be parts of friends grow of duty done shall the applause of theances of relatives or 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 the theaters, 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 with the proceeds, pay the salaries of a few persons who may get employment in such jim crow institutions. A PROPER PROTEST. A few Southerners objected to the presence of six colored girls at the graduation dinner at the fashionable Hotel Margaret in Brooklyn, N. Y. The colored girls, among whom was a daughter of Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of The Crisis, protested through Dr. DuBois to the Board of Education and Superintendent Tildsley informed the Girls' High School authorities that the colored girls would have to be admitted on an equality with all others or there would be no dinner. The dinner took place, the colored girls were present, there were no unpleasant incidents and the Hotel Margaret is still standing. McADOO NOT THE MAN. William G. McAdoo, former secretary of the treasury in a recent letter in reply to a notice that he had been indorsed for the presidency by a trade council replied with a lot of bunk that "America needs its greatest man" and that he doubted that he possessed the qualifications necessary. Well, Mr. McAdoo certainly took an accurate measure of himself. He is not in any sense a man fit to be president of a republic. He is a sectionalist who believes wholly in the South and has been one of the main props to keep the South in the saddle in the past seven years. He has no conception of a government, "of, by and for the people." And we must not forget that he is the man who originated segregation in the treasury department at Washington. 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." 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." COLORED COLONIALS. Many Colored Men in the American War for Independence. The employment of colored men became a subject of much importance at an early stage of the American War of Independence. The British naturally regarded slavery as an element of weakness in the condition of the colonies, in which the slaves were numerous, and lately they could gain the colored men and induce them to take up arms against their masters by promising them liberty on this condition. The situation was looked upon by the public men of the colonies as alarming, and several of them urged the Congress to adopt the policy of abolition. In the general question of emancipation feated, the exigencies of the contest again and again brought up the practical one of employment for colored men, whether bond or free. Only Freemen Wanted in Army. In May, 1775, Hancock and Warren's committee of safety introduced the following formal resolution: "Resolved. That it is the opinion of this committee, as the contest now between Great Britain and the colonies respects the liberties and privileges of the latter, which the colonies are determined to maintain, that the admission of any person as a soldier into the army now raising, but only such as are freemen, will be inconsistent with the principles that are to be supported and reflect dishonor on these colonies, and that no slaves be adjoined to this army upon any consideration. Washington took command of the army around Boston on July 3, 1775. The instructions for the recruiting officers from his headquarters at Cambridge prohibited the enlistment of any "negro." It may also be noticed that they were forbidden to enlist "any person who is not an American born, unless such person has a wife and family and is a settled person in this country." Many Colored Men Enrolled Many Colored Men Enrolled. Notwithstanding all this, the fact remains, according to Bancroft, that "the roll of the army at Cambridge had, from its first formation, borne the names of men of color." Free colored men stood in the ranks by the side of white men. In the beginning of war they had entered the provincial army and colored men, like others, were retained in the service after the troops were adopted by the continent." A committee on conference, consisting of Dr. Franklin, Benjamin Harrison and Thomas Lynch, met at Cambridge, October 18, 1775, with the deputy governors of Connecticut and Rhode Island and the committee of the council of Massachusetts Bay, to confer with Gen. Washington, and adduce to the council of renovating the army. On the 23d of November the negro question was presented and disposed of as follows: "Ought not negroes to be excluded from the new enlistment, especially as are slaves?" All were thought improper by the council of officers. It was agreed that they be rejected altogether. In general orders, issued November 12, 1775, Washington says: "Neither negroes, but unable to bear arms, nor old men must to endure the fatigues of the campaign are to be enlisted." Permitted Their Enlistment. Washington, however, in the last days of the year, under representations to him that the free colored men who had served in his army were very much dissatisfied at being discarded, and fearing that they might seek emancipation. British army, took the responsibility from the resolution respecting them and gave license for their being enlisted. Washington promised that if there was any objection on the part of Congress he would discontinue the enlisting of colored men, but, on January 15, 1776, Congress determined "that negroes who had served faithfully in the Cambridge may he re-enlist therein." "The entire aspect of the crisis"¹ changed when, in 1779 the South began to be invaded. South Carolina, especially, was unable to make any effectual efforts with militia, by reason of the great proportion of citizens necessary to remain at home to prey on the enemy among the colored men and their deserts, who were assiduous in their endeavors to excite both revolt and desertion. The result was that in all the Southern states the legislatures passed resolutions to enlist the colored men, and the colored patriots of the Revolution are as much entitled as their white brethren for the ardor with which they fought the common enemy, whether they were bondmen or freemen. It has never been possible to give an exact statement as to the number of colored men who served in the Revolution, for the reason that they were generally mixed in regiments and not calculated separately. ALPHA PHI ALPHA IN COLLEGE DRIVE. Cleveland, O.—The Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, a Greek letter organization with twenty-six chapters at the leading colleges of the country and 1,800 members, will launch a "Go to College Movement" June 6-12, 1820. The country will be divided into districts and a nation-wide drive directed from the seat of every college. Ten thousand educational pamphlets will be distributed among the students of all high schools and academies. The drive is under the direction of the following members of the National Commission of the fraternity: Dr. Roscoe C. Giles, Chicago, Chairman; S. S. Booker, Baltimore, Md.; F. L. Miller, Mound Bayou, Miss.; Dr. Charles H. Garvin and Ormond A. Forte, Cleveland, Ohio. THOMAS ON TERRELL. (From the Boston Guardian.) In his correspondence for the Old reliable Cleveland Gazette, a paper which we greatly admire as we admire also its great editor, Hon. Harry C. Smith, especially for his stand against the race drawing off together in separate philanthropic institutions, Prof. Neval H. Thomas, of Washington, D. C., flays Judge (or Justice as he calls him) Robt. H. Terrell as a compromiser. Prof. Thomas made a splendid fight against a separate lunch room in the District Supreme Court Building. He says Judge Terrell was quoted by the judges against him. He charges that opposed colored people coming North opposed race positions Peace Conference and then score for rushing to be the first to greet President Wilson upon his return from the Conference. We, ourselves, are surprised to see the way in which Mr. GOD GIVE US MEN. God give us men! A time like Strong minds, great hearts, Men whom the lust of office, Men whom the spoils of office Men who possess opinions and Men who have honor—men Men who can stand before a And damn his treacherous fife Tall men, sun crowned, who In public duty and in private 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; 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. Terrell had this sent out over the country and the way the press displayed it. He says the Judge presided at a meeting for Sen. Borah to oppose the 15th amendment. Then he speaks as follows: "He even sanctioned separate recreational centers for colored and white troops, with those of the colored immensely inferior, in spite of the fact that the blood of white and black alike was flowing in one crimson stream in distant France. Only agreeable colored people are allowed to speak to the colored soldiers at the center of which he is head. None of us radicals who are constantly telling the colored man that he has done his share of the dying and that it is high time he was getting some of the living, are invited to this center to talk democracy." We took our stand on this in Boston much farther North than Washington. Verily the Judge needs make reply or the race will see how it is that this Southern administration retains a colored man as Justice. 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 those 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. (From the Monitor, Omaha.) 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 upon our books laws granting to all our people equality." Then write other laws abrogating the pre-emptive questions. 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, without giving him an 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? Editor Smith Also Outspoken (From the Cleveland Gazette, H. C. Smith, Editor.) A few more loyal, able, aggressive outspoken, fearless and unselfish members of the race like Dr. Wm. A. Byrd, Prof. Neval H. Thomas and Editor Wm. Monroe Trotter would accomplish more for the race in one year than a moving-van full of the "conservative" kind of "leaders," twenty years. The race has been greatly retarded in its progress, for years, and has often lost "ground" unnecessarily because it has been so unfortunate as to have at times been misrepresented by the latter. Sane "radical" leaders, of the kind mentioned, have been on this day and time than ever before and what is most courageing is the fact that they are surely but surely increasing in number and our people are at last beginning to appreciate them and what we have set forth in the foregoing. More power to them! Not "Nigger"—Not "Negro." Bishop Wilbur Thirkield, in discussing colored Americans in the Southwestern Christian Advocate, and in his reply to Irvin S. Cobb, says: "The writer means well, but he does not seem to know what the term 'nigger' that has persisted as a relic of slavery and has in it the sting of liquid "HUMAN NATURE My ear is My soul is sick with ev Of wrong and outrage, There is no flesh in man It does not feel for man Of brotherhood is severe That falls asunder at th He finds his fellow guil Not colored like his ow To enforce the wrong, f Dooms and devotes bir My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which earth is filled. There is no flesh in man's obdurate heart. It does not feel for man: the natural bond Of brotherhood is severed as the flax That falls asunder at the touch of fire. He finds his fellow guilty of a skin Not colored like his own: and having power To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey. Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys: 'Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot. —Cowper. Is It Fair? fire to every self-respecting 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 you must be a white man manufactured both terms and the Government legalizes them and colored Americans perpetuate them. For God's sake, give both terms a rest. Needed by Colored Leaders. (From the Richmond Planet.) in individual should be around in process. PUBLIC STENOGRAPHER — Mrs. Harriet E.

The cafe of the Twin City Exchange, 507-9-14 Fourth Street, South, which has been undergoing renovation and re-decoration is again open to the public, looking spick and span and more attractive than ever. Remember, oh, remember, the Big Holiday Entertainment and Dance of Ames, "On to Kansas City Marching Club," at South Side Auditorium, Decoration Day, May 31. Some big time. Tickets, 50 cents. Bear in mind the Moonlight Boat Excursion by Prof. W. H. Howard's Military Band on Red Wing and barge, leaving foot of Jackson street, St. Paul, Monday evening, June 7, 8:00 sharp. Tickets, 75 cents. The popular Porters and Waiters Club, 311 Henmein P Ave., has about completed the extensive remodeling and redecorating that has been in progress and there has been a wonderful change made in its appearance. From information gained since the last issue of THE APEAL it appears that an error was made in stating that Mr. Fred C. Williams of Omaha was the guest last week of Mrs. W. R. Donovan. Mrs. Donovan says that was not a fact. "By no manner or means" must you neglect to go to the children's operetta, "Florinda," at Knickerbocker Hall, 9th St. and 4th Ave. Wednesday evening, June 2nd. Benefit of St. Thomas Episcopal Mission. Tickets only 25 cents. The annual ball given by the Rogers Hotel waiters at South Side Auditorium last Monday evening was of course a well attended and most delightful affair. The popular gentlemen who comprise the club are some entertainers and everybody knows it. Hotel Stewart, 244 Fourth Avenue S., is generally and officially recognized as a first-class, legitimate hostelry to which the public may give its patronage, safe in the belief that first-class accommodations and cafe service may be had at all times. Music in the cafe until midnight. Miss Helen Taylor of Chicago, late of the famous Taylor Sisters, is a favorite entertainer. MRS. ROBERT A. VAN HOOK FASHIONABLE DRESSMAKING AND LADIES' TAILORING PARTY GOWNS A SPECIALTY 722 SIXTH AVENUE NORTH MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. By blowing in an empty gun, No sooner in the gun he blew, Than off this mortal sphere he flew, And met the girl in vonder scene, Who lit the fire with kerosene. And there he saw in vengeance dire, The one who called a man a liar. He was huddling close as if for life, Beside the man who whipped his wife, Take warning each, take warning all, For retribution sure will fall On him who does a careless deed, Or wrongs another without heed.
