Many good things are being said about him but none are more worthy of consideration than the following from Attorney Charles W.

I have appeared before him as a trial judge in Duluth and also as a member of the Supreme Court, and can truthfully say of him, that through his spectacles, all men look alike. He is absolutely devoid of race prejudice, broad minded, sympathetic and well grounded in the law. I am writing letters to my friends throughout the state. Do all you can for Judge Dibell and in doing so you will help not only him but ourselfs. Atty J. Lewis Ervin, who practiced law in Duluth and appeared before Judge Dibell many times and also in the Supreme Court in St. Paul, says: "He is one of the fairest judges that ever tried a case.

JUNE 19. 1920 MINNESOTA'S DISGRACE The disgraceful carnal assault on a female and the disgraceful execution of mob vengeance on three men at Duluth, Minnesota, has been told so generally in the daily papers everywhere that no detailed account needs to be made by THE APEAL. But with the rest of the fair-minded papers and people we wish to add our condemnation of the crime of assault as perpetrated and also the murderous spirit of the mob. We cannot find words to express our utter horror of either or both, but will allow the sentiments expressed by others, with which we are in hearty accord, to in a measure do that for us. The St. Paul Daily News said: "That the three men were charged with the vilest of crimes is no justification for 'lynch law.' Had they been guilty, there is no doubt that proof, conviction and punishment would have followed swiftly—BUT—under due process of law. "Now it behooves the authorities to apply this same process to the guilty of the affair. Ring leaders were recognized and should be called to account as speedily and thoroughly as possible." The St. Paul Dispatch said: "Conceding the provocation of lynch parties, nothing can be said, on the other hand, in extinuation of their acts. They, too, in the heat of their passion, have become not reasoning men but mad beasts. The lynchmen are not that ill, but that is indicative of their state of mind and feeling. Nobody but mad men would make such a farcical pretense of organized justice. The Chicago Daily News said: "Whether the men hanged were guilty the mob, of course, did not know, although it conducted what it chose to call a trial and turned three of its captives back to the police. But the mob sought not justice so much that the police abused an alibi do, and taking three lives made a satisfying score." The Chicago Evening Post said: "A mock trial was held in the station; three of six Negroes were demolished, death, and sentence was executed on the city's streets over the protest of a Catholic priest, who alone seems to have had the courage to speak for law and order and human decency. "This "This is a crime of a northern state, ```markdown ``` 6. Q. ADAMS, Manager. THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence protest makes cover The human race has test.

The Duluth authorities stand condemned in the eyes of the nation. They cannot escape condemnation by the plea that the governor—an attempt involving the use of firearms—would have resulted in blooded. Blood should have been shed before the mob was permitted to trample law and justice under foot, and men were surrendered to a summary and undiscriminating vengeance." The Chicago Journal said: "In scores of cases, innocence of the victims is probable, though proof is lacking. Passing that point, there is an argument which ought to appeal to the dullest and most prejudiced mind." "Lynching does not pay. Its chief alleged object in assault cases is to give protection to white women. White women are incomparably safer among the black populations of Bermuda, Barbados and Jamaica, where lynching is unknown, than in some of our own states where Negro suspects are sacrificed to mob fury every year. The second alleged object is to spare an assault the shame of public acknowledgment. Way not spare her the shame of the assault, as the islands mentioned actually do?" But why go further as the sentiments expressed are held by all fair-minded people. Governor J. A. A. Burnuq, who by the way is president of the St. Paul Branch of the National Association of People has given orders for a thorough investigation, from every angle, of the horrible disgraceful affair and we will await further report. THE REPUBLICAN PLATFORM. The Republican platform adopted at Chicago is made up of the usual array of "glittering generalities." Some of the planks are good and some are very bad. The anti-lynching plank is a namby-pamby affair in which the party urges instead of pledges relief. Efforts were made to have a strong equal rights plank adopted and several were offered but all missed fire, principally because a Southern fireer, former Senator Marion Butler of South Carolina, made a speech in which he declared that the "South will never grant civil rights to the negro." This frightened the Northern members of the committee and "equal rights" were thrown into the discard. A Chicago colored delegate tried to bring up the matter in the convention but he was -promptly squealed. THE APPEAL was on hand with a plank as follows: "The Republican Party reaffirms its belief in the absolute equality of all citizens of the United States, before the law, without regard to race, color or creed. This being a basic principle of the founders, the party now pledges the immediate repeal of all national laws in conflict with this principle, and the abolition of all national governmental rules and customs, in the civil establishment, on common carriers, and in the Army and Navy, which in any way discriminate against equal and identical treatment of all citizens on account of race, color or creed." The foregoing plank was sent to more than one hundred delegates to the national Republican convention, together with a letter requesting that the person addressed take a personal interest in urging its adoption by the resolutions committee. But it failed. "THE TRAGEDY OF THE HALF LOAF." THE APPEAL heartily endorses every word of the following editorial from our enterprising and uncompromising contemporary The Chicago THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgme the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than th world, the counten 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. ce 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 Wilcox. 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 HALF 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 beggar'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 unstinted 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 quagmire of peonage and serfdom MUST and WILL spurn the Half Loaf and lay onto the WHOLE LOAF, "so help him God." THE REASON. The Boston Guardian edited by William Monroe Traister, 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. n who in the conscii of his duty dares to world, with ignorant, ent, may condemn, of relatives may be hearts of friends grow of duty done shail the applause of the ances of relatives or 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 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. ORGANIZED LABOR ERASES COLOR LINE. 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. RACE RIOT VERDICT STANDS Supreme Court Upholds Conviction of Colored Men. Springfield, Ill., June 18—The Illinois Supreme court has affirmed the judgment of guilty against Walter Covin and Charles Johnson, convicted in Chicago of the murder of Morris Lazzeronia at 36th and State streets during the 1939 race riots. The case was heard by Supreme court on an appeal because the alleged faulty instructions to the jury. The court says it can find no error. 39 "Lifers" Get Hearing Kansas City, June 18—Habeas corpus proceedings seeking release of 39 colored men serving sentences of life imprisonment are set for hearing in the U. S. District court in Kansas City, Kans, for Saturday. The men were sentenced for rioting in Houston, Tex. Catholic Color Line Eades Washington, D. C., June 18.—Georgetown University and the Catholic University of America have wiped out the color line; and, in the future, any student, regardless of color, will be permitted to attend the colleges. For a long time prominent officials in the church, headed by Cardinal Gibbons, have discountenanced race discrimination in all educational and religious Catholic colleges and no doubt the influence brought the change about. N. A. A. C. P. Wins Case New York, June 18—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People announces that the Supreme Court of Colorado has decided in favor of Rev. W. L. Darius against Pete Apostolos, a Greek proprietor of a bootlace stand. The court decides that a bootlace stand is a place of public accommodation. And the nerve of a foreign discriminatory citizen. The decision is of great importance because of the effect it will have on other cases which may come up in the state courts in the future. 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 nature of the colonies was of weakness in the condition of the colonies, in which the slaves were numerous, and laid their plans to gain the colored men and induce them to 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 already being urged the Congress to adopt the policy of emancipation. But while the general question of emancipation was defeated, the exigencies of the contest again and again brought up the prac- tice of the colored men, whether bond or free. Only Freemen Wanted in Army. Freeman Wanted in Army. In May 1786 Hancock and jerreman's command of the army resolved 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 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 to be supported and reflect dishonor on these soldiers, will 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 from his headquarters at Cambridge departed from his command any "mero."

WARREN G. HARDING HARDING AND COOL THE REPU Naming of Ticket Closes F litalic Battling at the the Coliseum By WRIGHT A. PATTerson. For President—Warren G. Harding of Ohio. For Vice President—Calvin Coolidge of Massachusetts. Convention Hall, Chicago.—The nomination for president was made on the tenth ballot. The vote on that ballot for the men who had been the leading candidates was: Harding, 647%; Wood, 157%; Lowen, 12; Johnson, 80 4-5. After it is all over, that is the news it took five strenuous days to produce. That is all that the great mass of the public will remember. But for those who had a part in the contest it will be an experience to be remembered for a lifetime, and the convention of 1920 will go down in the history of the Republican party as one of the hardest waged battles of the party's existence. It was a battle of which the audience saw but little that was spectacular, and did not appear to the expectations of the thousands who had begged and fought for and purchased tickets, and who had jammed themselves into the great building session after session, swelling and roasting, and always anticipating something worth while. The public did not see the real fight, as they were not admitted to the council rooms where the differences of contesting candidates were ironed on, or where the varying opinions of different factions were being reconciled so that a platform that would fit all elements might be produced. The unusual conditions of the times had produced a wide range of ideas. Men differed radically on important points upon which the party must go to the public as a unit if it is to have a chance of being successful in November, and it was not an easy task to find the common ground upon which all were willing to stand, a great deal of difficulty was required to bolt on the part of some faction, and these threats brought adjustment after adjustment, after sessions lasting from but a few minutes to an hour or so, in order that new conferences might be held and new efforts might be made to satisfy opposing elements. League of Nations Eight. It was the League of Nations plank that proved the greatest stumbling block. The irreconcilables of the senate, led by Senator Johnson, would not listen to anything that savored of an indorsement of the League of Nations, with or without reservations. Another element, led by Nicholas Murray Butler of New York, insisted upon an indorsement of the League with the Lodge reservations, and on Wednesday morning it seemed that nothing could prevent a split on this plank. It was at this time that the political genius of Ellhu Root was called upon. The cables carried the troubles of the contestants to Europe where Root is assisting in the organization of an international court, and the cases brought back solution that satisfied Senator Johnson and his followers, and which the others were willing to accept in the interests of party harmony. There was difficulty again over the labor plank, and again compromise was resorted to to prevent a split. Much the same thing was true of the plank on Mexico and a plank on Ireland. In the end the Lish were overlooked entirely, as nothing the leaders were willing to do was satisfactory to that element that was demanding a strong population acknowledging the freedom of the Irish "republic." Many Hours of Waiting For hours the resolutions comm that they were forbidden to enlist "any person who is not an American born, unless such person has a wife 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 the war they had entered the CALVIN COOLIDGE LIDGE ARE PUBLICAN NOMINEES Five Days of Strenuous Po- Party Convention in am at Chicago. tee, headed by Senator Watson of Indiana, fought back and forth. Appointed at the session of Tuesday, it was expected to report at 11 o'clock Wednesday morning, and the Coliseum was packed to capacity at that hour. A few other formalities were completed, and an adjournment taken to 11 o'clock of Thursday. Again the crowd came back. The convention convened, Cardinal Gibbons offered an invocation, and the convention adjourned to four o'clock. With a never ending interest the crowd was again back at four o'clock only to wait for two long sweltering hours for the fight on the platform which they were anticipating, but which did not materialize. The fight had all been made behind the closed doors of the council rooms, and with the exception of the formation of a minority report by a member of the committee from Wisconsin, to which the public reaction was paid, there was no disagreement that there had ever been a disagreement, and the platform was adopted with less than half a dozen dissenting votes. A Day of Oratory. Friday gave promise of being a red letter day for the audience and the fight for the coveted bits of beautifully engraved cardboard waxed hot and heavy. At nine thirty in the morning, when the session opened, every seat was filled, every aisle was jammed with an expectant multitude. It was to be a day of oratory, and it was. The first order of business was the call of the states for the naming of candidates for the nomination for the presidency. Arizona yielded to Kansas and Governor Allen took the platform to name General Wood. The audience heard what Governor Allen had to say, and attention was given to the second speeches and to the speech of Congressman Rodenberg on behalf of Governor Lowden. When Judge Wheeler of California, started to present the name of Senator Johnson the audience had enough of oratory. The distinguished California referred to the League of Nations plank as Senator Johnson's plank, and both delegates and the audience objected. He referred to the campaign funds of other candidates and there was a roar of disapproval. He fought back, and the audience and the delegates fought with him. From that time to the close of the long seven hours and more of nominating speeches the orators might quite as well have said nothing, as the audience heard nothing of what they said. Despite the efforts of Chairman Clairman the commotion continued until the last orator had named the last of the eleven candidates whose names were placed before the convention. A feature of the nominating and seconding speeches was introduced by Mrs. Robinson of New York, a sister of the late Theodore Roosevelt. In seconding the nomination of General Wood she referred to him as a friend of her brother, and from that time on practically each candidate was referred to as a friend and heir of the departed ex-president. Battle of Ballots. The balloting began on Friday night and four ballots were taken at that time. On these ballots General Wood was the leader, with Governor Lowden a fairly close second. After the first ballot a motion to adjourn was made, but was promptly voted down by a combination of the Wood and Lowden delegates who felt that their only chance to win lay in preventing further conferences on the part of the leaders. Another effort to adjourn was made after the second ballot and a roll call of the states demanded. It too, was voted down by the same combination provincial army, and the coloured men, like others, were retained in the service after the troops were adopted by the continent." A committee on conference, cusisting of Dr. Franklin, Benjamin jarrison and Thomas Lynch, met at Cambridge to discuss deputy governors of Connecticut and Rhode Island and the committee of the council of Massachusetts Bay, to confer with Gen. Washington, and add to the committee renovating the army. On the 23rd Defective Page of delegates. At the close of the fourth ballot Senator Smoot advanced to the front of the speaker's stand and moved an adjournment. A roll call was again demanded, but the demand was ignored and an age and no vote called for. Both sides in the controversy exerted all their lung power in an effort to enforce their will to the chairman, but after a conference of senate leaders on the speaker's stand, the chair ruled an adjournment had been voted. Back to the council rooms went the leaders, and to these rooms were summoned the men who were directing the fights of the candidates. Efforts were made to bring about some sort of a compromise that would result in a nomination on Saturday morning. But threats, promises and appeals in the interests of party harmony were all in vain. The three candidates, Wood, Lowden and Johnson, who were leaders in the voting, refused to give place to any one on whom the senatorial leaders could agree. They wanted to let the delegates fight it out on the floor of the convention and continue the balloting until the delegates had expressed their choice for the first place on the ticket without any influence being exerted on the part of the party leaders, and temporarily they won. When the first ballot was taken at the session of Saturday morning it showed but little change from those of Friday night. Through the first four ballots of Saturday General Wood and Governor Lowden were running neck and neck on and on one ballot were tied with $311\frac{1}{2}$ votes each. Again there came a demand for adjournment and again the Wood and Lowden commites to appear it, but without result. After another consultation at the back of the speaker's stand between half a dozen senatorial leaders the session was adjourned despite the protests of a large part of the delegates. Leaders Take Control. Almost instantly there flashed through the great building the rumor that the leaders had decided on Senator Harding as the man if they could force his nomination, and they were going to try. Could they do it? Did the leaders control enough delegates to name the leader of the party ticket? The general verdict was that they could; that the uninstructed delegates would do their blinding. Senator Johnson and General Wood refused to release their instructed delegates, and on the ninth ballot the Illinois delegation stayed with Governor Lowden, the Pennsylvania delegation stayed with Governor Johnson, and the delegation continued to split among several candidates. At the end of that ballot Senator Hardling lacked 120 votes of enough to nominate him and it was thought for a time the leaders were going to fail, until Governor Sproul was known to have released the Pennsylvania delegation to Harding, and with that the effort to climb into the Harding wagon started on the tenth and final ballot. In the end all instructed delegations were released, but many of them declined to change their last registered vote, and the final ballot was announced as given at the head of this event. All through the balloting 24 Wisconsin delegates had personally registered their votes for Senator La Follette, and when, after the last ballot had been announced it was moved to make the nomination unanimous these 24 delegates voted against the motion. It took but a short time to select Governor Harding's running mate. Governor Coolidge, Senator Lenroot of Wisconsin, Senator Gronnan of North Dakota, Governor Allen of Kansas, and Colonel Anderson of Richmond, Va., were named as candidates for the place. There was but one ballot, Governor Coolidge receiving 676 votes, and the ticket was complete. The Republican convention of 1920 was a thing of the past. Part Played by Women. One of the features for which the convention just closed will long be remembered was the participation of the women. It is doubtful if they had any decisive part in the actual naming of the candidate, other than the few who were present as delegates. But women figured prominently on the minor committees, and they figured prominently in the oratorical efforts, and very much to their credit. At least one woman seconded the nomination of each of the candidates for the nomination for the presidency, and their speeches appealed to the audience because they were short and to the point. Women were active as workers around the headquarters of every candidate. They gave out red, blue and green feathers for General Wood, badges and pennants for Governor Lowden, served tea and cakes for Herbert Hoover, and did something of a like service for each of the candidates. At General Wood's headquarters Mrs. Wood and her daughter had a handshake and a gracious word for every caller, but they refused at all times to talk politics. On the other hand the daughter of Nicholas Murray Butler was the real manager of her father's campaign. Herbert Hoover at no time showed any strength in the balloting. For the first nine ballots his total vote was from four to six, and on the tenth ballot he was presented votes. When his name was presented the convention on Friday by Judge Miller of Syracuse, New York, a delegate from that state, he received a demonstration from the audience that was one of the marked and unusual features of the convention, but it was not joined in by any of the delegations. It was very evident that Hoover had no place in Republican politics. negro question was presented and disposed of as follows: "Ought not negroes to be excluded from the new enlistment, especially such as are negroes, to be 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 campaign are to be enlisted." VEEK'S RECORD OF HAPPENINGS.
