In business, fortunes are not realized Unless your goods are amply advertised. HIT PRICE PEAK, DEALERS THINK Refusal of Public to Meet Further Advances Credited With Turning Scale. DEPARTMENT STORES LEAD Clothing Stock Surplus, Especially in Women's Wear, Likely to Bring Reductions—Silk Reductions Are to Be Permanent. New York.—The substantial reductions that have been made recently in the prices of all commodities by department and other stores throughout the country have led the buying public to wonder whether or not these reductions are the forerunners of continued reduction in the high prices that have prevailed since America entered the war. In an effort to ascertain the cause and probable extent of the downward movement, the New York Times has made inquiries among representative merchants in the wholesale and retail lines as well as among financial leaders. Their replies seem to agree that a permanent reduction movement has begun. In the minds of many, however, there is still much doubt as to the meaning of the reductions that have been announced and made by the department stores and other commercial houses. Even those who are not yet ready to say that a general fall in prices is to be expected are unwilling to predict that present levels will be maintained. A majority of retail dealers admit that prices are too high and that a reaction must come before the public will begin free buying. Surplus of Clothing. One phase of the reductions made by department stores has been the effort of middlemen to discover how the plan is worked. Dozens of wholesale and retail dealers confessed that they or their agents had made purchases at department stores for comparison with their own prices and qualities. The representative of a big London department store said he had bought from a department store certain articles much cheaper than prices quoted by manufacturers. In the wholesale clothing trade it is generally admitted that there is a surplus of goods. By some this surplus is said to be due to unseasonable weather, and by others it is admitted that the public has refused to pay existing prices. A number of representatives of this group said reductions must be made all along the line, from the manufacturers to the retailer. With overstock already on hand, clothing dealers are said to be canceling orders, while the mills are eager for business and willing to offer price concessions. It is now predicted that fewer sales will be made during the coming season, if the reports of early fall orders, booked by the clothiers, may be taken as a fair indication, but what is lost in volume, the clothing trade hopes, will be made up in a concentration on higher class garments. Silk Reductions to Stay. In the silk market it is no secret that price reductions which have been made are to be permanent. Huge stocks of raw silks are held in this country by Japanese interests and must be released following the break in the Japanese market, at substantially lower prices than were prevailing during midwinter when top prices were realized for raw materials. Members of this trade do not hesitate to say that prices have been too high, and that the time has come for a adjustment on an entirely new basis. A disposition to await developments has marked the cotton goods market. There has been only gradual easing off in the prices of printcloths and sheetings which have a wide variety of uses when finished. In the prices of sateens and other fabrics used by the clothing trades the reductions have been more marked. Belief is expressed in the financial district that commodity prices will continue downward because it is believed that wholesale prices reached their peak in February, and that within a few weeks the reaction will take a stronger hold of the retail markets. Wants Cat Wet Nurses To Nurse Baby Foxes New York.—A call for mother cats to nurse silver foxes was received in New York from an upstate fox farm owner. H. M. Bacon, president of the New York Fur Auction Sales corporation, to whom the appeal for cats was sent, said the fox farmer was willing to take all the cats he could get. A mother cat can earn $2.50 for six weeks' endeavor, he said. At end of six weeks, a litter of baby foxes becomes sufficiently mature to take solid food. Negro Girl Rich Muskogee, Okla.-The richest negro girl in the United States is Sarah Rector, eighteen, who lives near Muskogee, Okla. Through oil found on the supposedly worthless land she owned she is now worth a million and a half. BIDDIE GROWS SPURS Chicago Surgeon Produces He-Hen With Knife. Transplanted Glands Cause Hen to Develop All Characteristics of Chanticleer. Chicago.—The experiments of Dr. Victor D. Lespinasse of the Northwestern university in tinkering with the sex of the common hen and his demonstrations before medical experts have aroused the interest of chicken growers. "It was a simple enough operation," explained Doctor Lespinasse; "just the transplanting of the interstitial glands of a rooster to a hen. But the result was surprising and perhaps no one was more surprised than the hen herself. Within a few weeks she began to develop all the characteristics of a chanticleer. "She grew a comb and wattles. Saddle feathers appeared next and finally a pair of spurs. She took to strutting pompously about the barnyard, lording it over the other fowls. "Instead of cackling, our nearrooster would essay a feeble kee-akee. A full-sized he-crow is about the only thing that's lacking to complete her—or, I might say, his—roocherhood." The he-hen is now on a farm in the suburbs of Chicago. In further experiments with animals, Doctor Lespinasse succeeded recently in producing "Siamese Twin" dogs. These didn't live long, but were perfect specimens. CHEERED BY TENANTS Knodel & Herbert Judge William Morris was cheered by tenants and court attaches when he removed his robe and, standing in his shirt sleeves, told one Chicago landlord he could "go to the Supreme court, or to h-" MRS. SPIKER NOW CITIZEN English Girl Is Made Happy by Action of Bureau of Immigration. Baltimore, Md.—Mrs. Emily Knowles Spiker, the English girl who married the brother of the father of her baby, Alfred Ray Spiker, in Fall River, Mass., was made happy by notification from the bureau of immigration of the department of labor that she had been officially recognized as an American citizen and will not be deported. The bureau also informed her lawyer that the two Liberty bonds of $500 each, put up by Mrs. Cora Spiker, wife of the father of her baby, would be returned to her by the treasury department. The Spiker case has attracted widespread attention, owing to the attitude of Mrs. Cora Spiker, the wife of the returned soldier, who made affidavit that she had forgiven her husband and that his confession had caused no change in the marital happiness, and to the attitude of Guy Spiker, her brother-in-law, who, before he had seen the girl, expressed his willingness to marry her. IS READY FOR TOURISTS France Will Use Hospital Trains to Carry Sightseers Over Battlefields. Paris—Hotel accommodations In France being limited, French authorities designated to handle the tourists that will visit the battlefields in the country this summer plan to use hospital trains to carry the sightseers. Each train will be arranged with all the necessities for a week or ten-day tour of the British, French and American fronts. France expects 500,000 American tourists this summer. Steps have been taken to prevent hotels in the larger towns and cities from charging excessive rates. A. New Plutocrat Looms Up Bluefield, W. Va.—Before he left for the army a Coeburn boy bought a barrel of whisky and buried it. Recently he was discharged from service and today he is $1,200 richer than he was. Revenue officers would be interested in learning how and to whom he made the sale. THE APPEAL. 41. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, JUNE 12 1920 CHINESE KILL RUSS Captives Are Shot to Death With Revolvers. First Make Victims Dig Graves, Then Execute Them for the Bolshevik. Amsterdam.—The correspondent of the Handelsblad, who recently returned from a trip in soviet Russia, gives the following account of his investigations of the activities of the Chinese employed there by the bolshevik as executioners. "Such horrible stories were being told in Europe about these Chinese that I thought it worth my while to learn more about them. As a joke, I asked everyone who asked my opinion of the bolshevik to show me some 'real man-killing Chinese,' but I always was told they couldn't produce any just now because they had all gone to the Denikin front. "I was told the Chinese, if commanded by their own officers were excellent soldiers, but they ran like hares if their officers were killed. Executions are now very rare in Moscow, but, in August, when thousands of counter-revolutionaries were slaughtered, it was carried out by the Chinese because the authorities feared the Russian soldiers would refuse to do the work. "The Chinese do this work indifferently—like they do all other work they are ordered to perform. They are blind, conscienceless tools in the hands of the men who feed them and pay them and who raised them from the position of cooleys in which they came to Russia to the rank of soldier, of the guards. "If the 'boltsjak' (his name for bolshevik) orders something, the Chinese does it, and he does it in his typically practical way. He first makes the victim dig his own grave and then shoots him with his revolver. He is not cruel about it, just practical. "When boltsjak says kill, then he kills with an unperturbed face. And when boltsjak says, 'You may stop now,' with the same cool face he lets his victim go." The correspondent after some weeks in Russia left when he was refused permission to make investigations freely as he pleased. Assert Ancient Tribes Did Much Irrigating Albuquerque, N. M.-That prehistoric peoples of New Mexico did a good deal of irrigating is indicated by the remains of canals and ditches found in the state, as well as in other parts of the Southwest, according to H. F. Robinson, head of the Indian irrigation bureau here. The remains of 217 miles of ditches built by the Pueblo Indians alone are to be found, and there are evidences of elaborate water systems at the Salt River valley in Arizona. These ditches were all dug by hand, according to Mr. Robinson, and clay banks and beds were constructed where the way lay over a sandy plain, while the method of blasting through rocks was to heat the rocks, crack them with large stones and remove them from the way. $5,000 FOR MOSQUITO BITE Demand Is Made by Sailor in Suit Brought in Brooklyn Supreme Court. New York.—The tale of a ship beset by swarms of mosquitoes during a voyage along the south Atlantic coast was unfolded in a complaint filed in the Brooklyn supreme court in a suit for $5,000 damages brought by Hendricus De Raay, a sailor. De Raay alleges that after he had been bitten severely, officers of the steamship Gulfcoast, belonging to the Gulf Refining company, refused to give ointment to him. The company has asked for a bill of particulars, denying that the officers refused the ointment, and declaring that mosquito bites were part of the assumed risk of employment. ITALY MAKES OYSTERS SAFE Remove Impurities by Keeping Them in Sterilized Sea Water for a Week. Washington—An Italian company has perfected a process for removing impurities from oysters, according to a report to the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce. On being taken from beds along the Venetian coast the oysters are shipped to Rome, the shells carefully washed and thrown into great tanks filled with sterilized sea water. The tanks are constantly replenished and the flowing water has been found to wash all impurities from the oysters which, after a week's "treatment" are shipped to the retailers. Hash?

CONFIDENT OF ITS SUCCESS Navy Department Working on "Double-Track" System Which Is Expected to Become Reality in a Few Years. Washington.—A "double-track railroad" guiding ships from all parts of the world in and out of 'San Francisco bay, through the Golden Gate, as safely in fog as in clear weather! That is the seemingly incredulous task upon which the navy department is now working. It will be a reality within a few years, or if congress be lenient, by next January 1. Commander H. W. McCormick, Pacific coast radio material officer at Mare Island, has asked an appropriation for the laying of radio piloting cables from San Francisco's waterfront, a distance of seven or eight miles out through the Golden Gate. Unless the appropriation of the wireless section of the bureau of steam engineering is trimmed too severely at Washington, the funds will become available July 1; the necessary supplies will be requisitioned immediately, and the vessels calling at San Francisco will be electrically guided into the harbor before next January. The use of radio pilot cables is still in the experimental stage, Commander McCormick said, but naval officers are confident of its success. Only one experiment has been heretofore conducted in the United States, and that, at New York, operated successfully until the cables were cut by dragging anchors. The equipment for the "double track" consists primarily of two heavily insulated cables, costing approximately $75,000; a transmitting station and coils on both the port and starboard sides of a ship. One of these cables, on the right-hand side of the channel, outbound, will flash "O-U-T" at all hours of the day and night, and the other, on the left-hand side of the channel, outbound, will flash "I-N." An automatic key system will perform this labor. With the aid of the recently established radio compass stations, or by other accurate methods of navigation, ships will be made to pass over the desired cable. When the sound waves of the induction coil show equal intensity on both the port and the starboard sides, the master will know that he is directly above the pilot cable. By holding his vessel so that these waves remain equal, he can bring his ship into harbor through a dense fog as readily as in clear weather. The use of this service will save the losses accruing when many ships lie out at sea, waiting the lifting of the fog bank to come into the bay, Commander McCormick said. The expense of necessary installations upon the hull of a ship would be slight in comparison with the advantages to be gained. "Eventually, I believe, all the chief harbors will have radio pilot cables and all ships will be equipped to avail themselves of the service," Commander McCormick declared. "As for San Francisco, it will be a matter of only a few years until the cables are laid, even if the appropriation is rejected this year. In addition to the navy vessels, which will, of course, be equipped to follow the cables, I expect that practically all ships calling regularly at this port will quickly install the induction colls." Commander McCormick said there was a likelihood that the first appropriation would be sufficient for the laying of only one cable. In this case, he said, a signal like "S. F." would be given, and both inbound and outbound vessels would follow the same cable.—San Francisco Bulletin. VOICE RECORD BY "WIRELESS" Talking Machine in Experiments Repeats Tones of Persons Forty Miles Away. London, England. — Experiments which have been carried out here have resulted in the making of a talking machine record on wax of a voice transmitted by wireless telephone 40 miles away. While the voice was speaking at Chelmsford, in the county of Essex, where there is a high power instrument capable of transmitting the voice hundreds of miles, the equipment at the receiving plant in the Strand, London, was attached to a recorder which engraved the message in soft wax in the same way as an ordinary talking machine disk is manufactured. Stockton, Kan.—The petrified core of a mastodon's tusk was unearthed near here the other day by workmen putting in abutments of a bridge. The tusk is five inches in diameter at the base and two feet in length. It is believed the tusk is part of the skeleton of a large predicteric animal that made its home the primeval forests of the Solomon Islands thousands of years ago. Confident of Success. Advantages of Service. Unearth Mastodon Tusk. FEAR WOMAN SHERIFF Female Officer in New Jersey Respected by Lawbreakers. Soon After Her Appointment Mrs. Duer Demonstrated Her Worth as an Officer. Red Bank, N. J.—The presence of Mrs. Georganna Duer, acting deputy sheriff, in Red Bank, N. J., is said to be responsible for the scarcity of crime in that vicinity. Shortly after her appointment Mrs. Duer demonstrated her worth as an officer, and since that time only a few petty acts of thievery have been reported. Evildoers steer clear of Sheriff Duer's territory because she has the embarrassing habit of turning up unexpectedly at the right point to intercept the fleeing crook with his plunder. This happens because the woman officer has lived in the same locality for 38 years and knows every crook and turn in the highways, all the trolley connections and short cuts across the country. Not only the office of deputy sheriff is filled by Mrs. Duer, but those of mayor and chief of police also have her as an incumbent. In the case of the minor offenders whom she arrests, Mayor Duer quickly metes out justice herself. When it is a case of "get out of town in two minutes" the female limb of the law acts in her capacity of chief of police and shows undesirable the shortest route out of Red Bank. She has run twoscore or more of these suspicious characters from her domains. Sheriff Duer is the mother of 15 children, nine of whom are boys. While the latter were growing up she organized them into a baseball team. A collection of prizes won by Sheriff Duer for fancy costumes worn by her on various occasions decorates the Duer home. BERLIN ROBBERIES MULTIPLY Holdups and Plain Theft Vastly Increase; Churches Are Not Immune. Berlin, Germany.—In these disturbed days, when the "revolution profiteer" flaunts his wealth in the face of an impoverished populace, robberies and burglaries in Berlin increase at an abnormal pace. Street signs are full of announcements offering rewards for the return of stollen goods. In one of the main streets a fancy goods store displays this notice: "Gentlemen burglaries are requested not to break open the shop front nor to tamper with the locks. There is nothing to steal here. All property is removed from the shop windows at night." There have been scores of holdups and the other day a man was stripped of his suit, shoes and hat and left on the sidewalk in his underclothes. It is not safe for hotel guests to leave any portable property of any description in their rooms. Cases of housebreaking have quadrupled within the last three years. Nor are churches, cemeteries and museums immune from robberies, the booty carried off being mostly ancient gold ornaments and jewelry. AUNT AND NEPHEW TELL ALL Say They Poisoned His Parents Year and a Half Ago in Kansas. Salina, Kas.-Based on statements given him by Miss Stella Hyman and her nephew, Lee Bunch, that Bunch's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Bunch, died a year and a half ago as a result of poison administered by Miss Hyman, County Attorney Healy prepared, to have warrants issued charging the two with murder. According to the statements of Bunch and his aunt, the alleged conspiracy to kill Mr. and Mrs. Bunch was devised because they refused to sanction the marriage of Miss Hyman and Lee Bunch. Lee Bunch's statement made to Healy at Lincoln Center, a village near here, said Miss Hyman put the poison in food. She also gave poison to Miss Nancy Bunch, sister of Lee, according to the statement. The sister is a permanent invalid from the effects of the poison, according to physicians. Mrs. Bunch was Miss Hyman's sister. Educated Mine Rat Opens Dinner Pails of Workers Workmen at the Richards colliery mines at Mount Carmel, Pa., say an educated rat has been responsible for their missing many good dinners recently. According to the miners, the rat inserts its tail in the ring of a dinner bucket and then takes a big jump. The lid usually comes off. When lunch time comes the men find their boxes empty. Bull Has a Morning After. Knoxville, Tenn.—Man is not the only animal with a thirst. A bull belonging to Frank L. West, county tax assessor, located a still, imbibed too freely and went on a spree. Fences were torn down and the still was destroyed, and then the bull was given a chance to meditate. If you have bought that's fit to sell, Use print and use it well. HIS NAME WAS BIBLE So Judge Thought He Could Take Chance on Him. Almost Lost Confidence in Human Nature When Paroled Prisoner Showed Up. Tulsa, Okla.—Because his last name sounded all right, Judge Maxey of this city released Lewis Bible on his own recognizance when he was arranged on the charge of passing a bad check. "Your name," said the Judge, "sounds all right. I'm betting that you will come back on the day set for your trial." The day came, and the hour—9 o'clock in the forenoon—and no Bible put in an appearance. The witnesses were there, both for the state and the defense. They had not seen Bible since the day he was released. "This is one time you have made a mistake," observed the county attorney to Judge Maxey. The judge shook his head. "His name is all right," he contended, "and he looked all right to me. But I may have been mistaken." At 9:30 the witnesses were discharged and the case set over to another day. Judge Maxey ordered that the sheriff be sent to him; he would have Lewis Bible apprehended. Ten o'clock came and a man on crutches hobbled into the court room. He was Lewis Bible, with one leg done up in splints and bandages. "I got here as soon as I could, Judge," he said. Then he explained that after his release he went to Cometa and went to work. His leg was broken the first day, and he had been in bed ever since. A friend in Cometa volunteered to take him to court to answer the charge against him, but his automobile balked and he did not reach the court house in time. Later it developed that Bible had not passed a bad check. "You have restored my confidence in human nature and my ability to read it," said Judge Maxey as he discharged Lewis Bible.

It was her husband, Doctor Bertrand Phisalle of the Pasteur institute who discovered the curative germ. AUSTRIAN ARMY DRAWS FEW Efforts to Raise 30,000 Soldiers Meet Little Response in Vienna Centers. Vienna, Austria.—Austria is trying to organize an army to succeed the volkswehr under the provisions of the bill hurriedly passed during the panic that followed the German revolution. It is to be composed of 30,000 men. The treaty prohibits any aviation force. The conservatives won their point in securing the allocation of recruiting in the provinces on a population basis and in provisions prohibiting political activity by the military forces. These provincial units are to be garrisoned within the province itself. No man may be foisted upon a unit in a province in which he was not recruited without the consent of the province itself, and the men must be bona fide citizens of their province. On the one hand will be an army of peasant lads, and on the other of industrial classes from the manufacturing centers. In spite of the active efforts of the Socialists to spur recruiting, few men have applied for enlistment in Vienna or the other industrial centers, while reports from the provinces are even more discouraging. Swamp a Beautiful Park. Wellington, Kan.—Women of this city are given credit for the transformation, within a few years, of an unsightly, swampy thirty-acre tract into a beautiful city park. It has been named "Community park." It is laid out with artistic landscape effect, replete with trees, shrubs and flower bed. It contains a park house, surrounded with large shade trees, a neat modern stone building containing a large reception room, dining room and kitchen, that will accommodate comfortably about 250 persons. The park house is used for entertainments, banquets and parties. $2.40 PER YEAR TELLS OF FIGHT WITH CANNIBALS Rice Party Has Encounter With Giant White Savages in South America. NOT AFRAID OF FIREARMS Professor Rice Says That in All Hia Experience in Tropical Jungles He Never Saw Such Ferocious Looking Savages. New York.—The exploring party headed by Dr. Alexander Hamilton Rice, which clashed last February near the banks of the Orinoco with giant cannibals, returned here from Para. With Doctor Rice came Mrs. Rice, formerly Mrs. George D. Widener of Philadelphia, who accompanied her husband on some of his South American explorations; Chester H. Ober, geographer of the expedition; A. W. Swanson, J. E. Mason and Dr. G. E. Byers. It was while exploring an unnamed tributary of the Orinoco river that the party was attacked. The discharge of firearms failed to scare off the savages, who were described as large and fierce, and the explorers only escaped by firing into them, killing either two or three. The party then turned back. Not Previously Seen Since 1763. "The cannibals were almost white in color," Professor White said. "In all my years in the tropical jungles I have never seen such ferocious looking savages. Nearly all were armed with bows and arrows and carried spears and blowguns. They were more than six feet tall and I recognized them as cannibals of the Guaribos tribe, a mountain legion considered the most ferocious of all the savages in either Venezuela, Colombia, or Brazil." The professor declared he believed it was the first time these cannibals were met by white men since 1763, when a Spanish expedition discovered them. Record Trip for White Woman. Mrs. Rice was not with her husband on the occasion of the attack on the party. However, she traveled with the party as far as Esmeralda, Brazil, penetrating further into the Amazon wilderness than any other white woman, according to the explorer. The Rio Negro and other outlets of the Amazon were explored and charted, as well as the Casquale canal and the Upper Orinoco, Doctor Rice said. A number of specimens were brought back for the Peabody museum at Harvard. QUEEN'S CHAIR IN JUNGLE Africans Say Spirit of Old Chief Guards Supposed Gift of Victoria. London.—The massive chair made of copper, which natives believe was given by the late Queen Victoria of England to an Ashanti chieftain and used by him as his throne, has been discovered in the midst of a jungle far from human habitation in the Gold Coast colony, West Africa. According to native legend, it was placed over the grave of the chieftain who had occupied it when alive. In their superstition, they believe he still sits upon his old throne in spirit at certain times and, for this reason, they have never tried to move the chair, which, they declare, has now rooted itself in the ground, says a dispatch to the Daily Graphic. A Gold coast surveyor first stumbled across this curiosity. A search party returned to the spot and found the jungle so dense that the natives had to hack a path with cuttles through the undergrowth. In spite of inquiry, no confirmation of the native story as to the history of the chair has been obtainable and how it came to be in the jungle remains a mystery. City Doubled Taxes on Profiteering Landlord A 100 per cent increase in the assessed valuation of his property was the penalty imposed by the Detroit city council on Jacob Shevitz, owner of a nine-family apartment house, who was accused of increasing their rents from $42 to $90 per month. Dream That Will Not Come True. Ronceverte, W. Va.—Miss Emma Huff almost became the wife of Bert Treadway, but the indications now are that she will never marry him. The license had been procured and the couple were on the way to a minister's when officers placed Treadway under arrest on the charge of murdering Charles Scott. Treadway has confessed and accepted a life term in the state penitentiary. Gave His Reverence Long Ride. Lebanon, Ky.—After riding a mile on the pilot of the engine which had smashed his automobile, Rev. Father W. J. Rowlett told the engineer that he thought he never would bring his train to a stop. Father Rowlett was not even scratched. THE APPEAL AN AMERICAN NEWSPAPER ISSUED WEEKLY No. 301-2 Court Block, 24 E. 4th st. A. Q. ADAMS, Manager. PHONE: N. W. CEDAR 5649.

It is with considerable satisfaction that we learn from press dispatches, that the American Federation of Labor at its annual convention in session at Montreal, Can., June 10, wiped out the, "color line" and warned its affiliated international unions that colored workers must be given full and equal membership with white men. This is certainly as it should be as it should always have been, for of one blood God made all men; and, He is no respecter of persons. His creatures surely would make no mistake in following His example. THAT'S THE WAY TO DO IT. A movement started in the districts surrounding Cordovia, Spain, by the wealthier people to go without hats and also to wear sandals made of hemp in protest against high prices is spreading through Southern Spain. Hundreds have joined the silent demonstration, which is causing considerable perturbation among tradesmen. Let us hope that it will spread to this country. The St. Paul Daily News of Thursday publishes a cut of a colored girl and says: "Against a field of children of all races, Miss Audry Tripp, colored child of New York City, three years and nine months old, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Reynold Tripp, was adjudged the most perfect child of pre-school age, in Manhattan. Audrey was awarded a gold medal. Her favorite pastime is tree climbing." If the perfections of a colored child are such as win such a verdict from a white jury, she must be "a peach." KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. It appears that the manhood stand the thinking colored men have taken lately is bringing forth good fruit with the Republican National Committee at Chicago as the following resolution was passed this week: "In view of the fact that at this session of national committee and at previous sessions of the national committee and preceding national conven- "HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT."

"THE TRAGEDY OF THE HALF LOAF." THE APPEAL heartily endorses every word of the following editorial from our enterprising and uncompromising contemporary, The Chicago Whip. What a pity that there are so few "Whips" among the papers edited by colored men: The strongest races of men, and the most indomitable characters of history have always either uncompromisingly demanded every scintilla of their just rights, or, being denied the full measure of attainment of their ideals have spurned even life itself. Patrick Henry in crying out for "either liberty or death," voiced the sentiment of the Pilgrim Fathers, who preferred the unknown horrors of the great uncharted Western ocean and the savage-ridden land beyond to religious oppression in a comfortable home. But the American colored man is apparently satisfied with the HALK LOAF. For 250 years he was so told that he was entitled to NOTHING—that he even enjoyed life itself by suffurance. His mind was so deliberately dwarfed and stunted that he could not even think to the contrary. So well was this psychology ingrained into him, that even today, race leaders of the old school, finding it impossible to break from this log cabin philosophy, "handed it down to free men." He was so thoroughly robbed of his mentality, that he complacently helped manufacture the shot and shell which enabled his masters to keep him in slavery. When Liberty and Citizenship were granted him, his childish mind could not grasp their significance. He took what was given him with a thankful heart, thanks to the teachings of the old school. He has not yet demanded unequivally all that is due him! He fears to refuse acceptance of the Half Loaf and demand the WHOLE, trembling lest he be denied any at all. With apologetic men and smirking smile, he renders gratitude for Jim Crow Settlement Houses, Jim Crow Soldiers and Sailors' Clubs, Jim Crow Y. M. C. A.s, Jim Crow Officers' Training Camps, Jim Crow churches, fraternities and politics. He thus plays the begger's role in spite of the fact that he has proven himself to be an indissoluble and indivisible entity of the whole warp and woof of America, economic, political, military and social. He is the economic backbone of the South. He holds the balance of political power as he is beginning to learn. He has always been the fangs of the American army. His blood, suspected and unsuspected, flows in more veins than any other one strain in America. He is still a slave if he accepts anything short of the full uninstrumented measure of recognition and respect. The New Colored American will never again be satisfied with EQUAL RIGHTS when they are not the SAME RIGHTS. The New Colored American, repudiating the teachings of the old school, who led him into the quag --- THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge or stand alone; the we intolerant judgment the countenances of averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than the world, the countena 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. mire of peonage and serfdom MUST and WILL spurn the Half Loaf and lay onto the WHOLE LOAF, "so help him God." 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. 2. A national antiterrorism 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. "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 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!" 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 Chicago, 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 Romie 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 pluster. Madden told the truth and the Southerners know it. 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 thetheatres, 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. 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 buncosts 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." BEAUTIFUL BLUE BUNK 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 infinitibunkum. One-eighth of the citizens of the United States are barred from general service in the Navy. 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? Before another issue of THE AP-PEAL is published the man who is to be the next President of these United States will have been selected. As we go to press before the selection has been made we cannot publish his name. We'll all know, however, next week. GO TO HELL TO FIGHT THE DEVIL N. A. A. C. P. MEETS IN ATLANTA, GEORGIA. LAUNCHES FIGHT AGAINST LYNCHING AND SEGREGATION AND FOR BALLOT. Lack of Labor Caused by Migration to North Causes White South to Make Some Concessions. Special to THE APPEAL Atlanta, Ga., June 2.—Whether it be a change in the real attitude of the south toward the colored people, as some assert, or the fact that their migration to the north has left the south in an economic state which make concessions to them necessary, the fact remains that the sessions of the eleventh annual conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which has been in session here since Monday, have received more notice from the southern press and southern indies than from the northern press than any of the conferences, hitherto held. At the first session, which took place at the new A. M. E. Bethel church, the mayor of the city was present. That itself, according to Atlantans was an achievement. The mayor is said to represent a large labor and working class element. Five hundred delegates from 343 branches and forty states who with 2,500 others crowded the hall, acclaimed enthusiastically demands upon the south made by James Weldon John son, field secretary of the association These demands Upon the South These demands were: (1) Guaranty of life by abolition; (2) demand for equal education and industrial opportunities; (3) demand for the ballot under the same qualifications as others; (4) abolition of segregation; and (5) abolition of "Jim Crow" cars. The Rev. Ashy Jones, noted southern preacher-orator, made a plea for co-operation. Migration to Force Justice. The Rev. Dr. Robert Bagnall, a colored speaker, in an address said that when migrations of colored people to the north were at the height in 1879 the same kind of racial conferences had been proposed with no success. Dr. Bagnall declared that the only way secure justice for the colored people to withhold for him to continue to migrate until the societyized that as a matter of economic necessity it would have to grant the five demands Mr. Johnson had outlined. A telegram from Louis F. Post, assistant secretary of labor, pointing out the fact that to the extent that industry is dependent on colored working-men, to that extent production is checked by injustice to them, aroused tremendous enthusiasm and was the subject of commendation by succeeding speakers. A telegram from Jacob H. Schiff asking for justice to the colored people also was read. Mrs. Florence Kelley was one of the speakers and made a plea for organized effort among colored people in farm materials and implements and in effecting unity among themselves. The Spingarn medal for the most note-worthy achievement of the year by a man of African descent was presented to Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois by Bishop Hurst for holding the pan-African congress in Paris. 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 compromisor. 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 he opposed colored people coming North, opposed race petitioners to cease Conference and then scores him for coming 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. Terrell had this sent out over 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 blood needed 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. Is It Fair? (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 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, without giving him an honest chance for a try. 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? GOD GIVE US MEN. God give us men!

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 laid the slaves to gain the colored men and Indians 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. But while the general question was defeated, the exigencies of the colony 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 admitted into this army upon any consideration whatever." 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 boy with a woman that wife and family and is a settled person in this country." 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 the war they had entered the provincial army, and the colored men, like others, were retained in the service after the troops were adopted by the continental states 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 advise a method for renovating the army. On the 23d of October the negro question was presented and disposed of as follows: "Ought not negroes to be excluded from the new army, 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, boys unable to bear arms, nor old men unfit to endure the fatigues of the campaign are to be enlisted." instruments s---Pianos -Pianos instruments ING MUSICAL" FULLY PAYMENTS er&Bro.

Howard and the members of his military band are highly related over the magnificent success of their moonlight boat excursion on Steamer Red Wing and barge Manion last Monday evening. There were 465 persons on the boat and there would have been many more but for the tie-up of the street cars in the city that day, as many people could not get to St. Paul; even several members of the band could not get to the boat. As they will give excursions on July 19th and August 23rd, it is sincerely hoped that there will be no such trouble on those occasions. Watch and wait for them.
