INCREASE YOUR INCOME
MR. GORDON SAYS:
There is no royal road to fortune. The history of the prosperity of individuals might be written in two words—work and save.
Work, hard work, is essential to success. Equally true is the saying: "Income $1,000, expenditures $900—contentment. Income $1,000, expenditures $1,100—misery."
Thrift, coupled with work, lays the foundation for success. The man who has the saving habit is on the road to fortune.

THE NOMINATION OF COX.
From the viewpoint of the colored group the nomination of Governor Cox of Ohio on the Democratic ticket is eminently satisfactory. So far as we know he has always been just in his treatment of the colored citizens of his state.
And whether Harding or Cox be elected, the next president of the United States, will be a Northern man, and that is something to be thankful for. The nomination of McAdoo would have been dangerous for democracy, because he might have been elected. He now lives in New York, but he was born in Georgia, and has in his soul the contempt which the Georgia white people as a rule have for the colored people. We must not forget that McAdoo struck one of the most contemptible blows at the colored race when he instituted racial segregation in the Treasury Department at Washington. Farewell Crown Princess.

Let us be thankful that the Wilson administration, the "reigning family" which has done so much to injure the nation in general and the colored people in particular, will soon be a thing of the past.
APPEAL FIGHTS JIMCROWISM.
Saint Paul, Minn., July 3, 1920.
Mr. William M. Trotter.
Editor The Guardian,
Boston, Mass.
My dear Mr. Trotter:
I am enclosing a small check to aid you in your fight against the proposed Jimcrow Y. M. C. A. for Boston.
The attempt of some lickspittle leaders to foist this disgraceful condition upon the city in which William Lloyd Garrison battled for the freedom of the slave shows that the colored people who sponsor such an institution are unit for freedom and are unworthy of the respect of decent people.
If a Jimcrow Y. M. C. A. is right, then lynching, disfranchisement, Jimcrow cars and all of the abominations of the South are right. If a Jimcrow Y. M. C. A. is right, then CHRISTIANITY IS A LIE. There is absolutely nothing in the

The Illinois Constitutional Convention adopted Delegate Edward H. Morris' proposal prohibiting the Legislature from passing future laws which shall discriminate against people of any race of color, after a debate which lasted for one and a half hours.
Mr. Edward H. Morris, the noted colored lawyer of Chicago, led the fight for the proposal.
The section adopted states, that laws of the state shall be applicable alike to all citizens without regard to race or color, and no citizen shall be prohibited from doing anything that any other person may do because of or by reason of such citizen's race or color.
argument, "one should not go where he is not wanted," when it is applied to public or semi-public places. A. Y. M. C. A. is a semi-public place and it is always and everywhere open to the most degraded Irish, Germans, Japanese, Chinese, Poles, Russians, Coreans, Indians, South Sea Islanders and all other people, no matter if they are the scum of the earth. Colored people should go to the Y. M. C. As whether they are wanted or not. To admit that one has no right in them is to admit that one is not human. In the United States, segregation usually begins in the church or in some so-called church institution, and then follows the loss of civil rights and civil degradation. The Caucasian Christian church is a parody on Christianity and has done the colored people incalculable harm.
The most valuable thing in the world is manhood. There is nothing that will take its place. It is a jewel beyond price.
I glory in the fact that you are always ready to protest against Wrong and do not hesitate even when the devil, Wrong, comes masquerading in the habiliments of the Christ.
Remember the words of Ella Wheeler Willeox:
"To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and gullotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of the many."
The American Federation of Labor has just erased the color line, but hypocritical American Christianity takes advantage of the colored man's deep religious feelings and strengthens the infamous caste system in an effort to deprive the race of its civil rights, for that is what segregation of any kind leads to.
Mr. Trotter, keep up the fight against the devil and his works. God is not mocked.
Very truly yours,
John Q. Adams,
Editor THE APPEAL
CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY
About twenty-five years ago, the world was horrified by the news of the first lynching by burning at the stake, which occurred at Paris, Texas. Since that time the rule of the mob has increased by leaps and bounds. Even our own state has been disgraced by mob murder.
Paris, Texas, has just celebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary of the establishment of burning at the stake as the rule in the United States, when colored men are charged with crime, by saturating with oil and burning at stakes, two colored men who were charged with the murder of their lord, in a dispute about rental of a farm.
Sheriff Clarkson, so the dispatch reads, said: "The mob probably burned the wrong man."
"BACK TO ABYSSINIA."
A lot of ignorant black men, attired in fantastic garments, bearing aloft the flag of Abyssinia, and led by an alleged Abyssinian, paraded in Chicago Sunday. The procession finally halted at a corner where the Abyssinian leader burned the American flag. This action was resented by the crowd composed of colored and white people and in the melee two white

men were killed and two colored men,
including a policeman, were danger-
ously wounded.
The toughs in the crowd tried to start a race riot, but sober white men and sober colored men stood together and trouble was averted. Colored men formed a posse, hunted down the men charged with murder and turned them over to the officers of the law.
The next day the Chicago Tribune, which for years has done everything in its power to stir up race prejudice, laid the cause of the trouble to the wftings of Dr. W. E. B. DuBois and the N. A. A. C. P. and in a bitter editorial intimated that these influences were endeavoring to force "social equality", what ever that may mean. It is not likely that three men in all the motley crowd even knew that there is such a person in the world as Du Bois.
Then came some colored men who played into the Tribune's hands by giving out interviews which either denounced Du Bois or dammed him with faint praise by saying that his philosophy was all right for high brows but dangerous for the men in the ordinary walks of life. One of the most disgusting of these is alleged to have been given by Mr. Anderson, said to be one of the assistant editors of the Chicago Defender. We trust Mr. Anderson did not say what was ascribed to him, as from his talk the readers of the Tribune would be led to infer that he was an advocate of segregation of every kind. And then he commented on intermarriage which really had no place in the controversy having been interjected by the Tribune without any reason whatever. Mr. Anderson appears to have done some queer talking when he said he was very anxious to keep the African blood pure as, so THE APPEAL is informed, Mr. Anderson is more white than black, one parent having been of pure Caucasian ancestry and the other more than half white. All that talk should have been left unsaid.
The Tribune writer garbled the story of "The Comet" from Du Bols' book, "Darkwater," and made it appear that the point was "the mating of a white woman and a negro from which a new race will spring." This is absolutely false. The colored hero who saved the life of a white woman had no thought of mating with the woman as he was already the husband of a brown woman and the father of a dark baby. The story ends with the pathetic meeting of the father and the mother who held in her arms the corpse of their dead baby.
Prof. DuBols has never taught treason and that was the cult of the miscreants who burned the American flag. He has advocated a fight by legal means for the removal of the hindrances which hamper the progress of the colored people.
Dr. Du Bois is one of the leading lights in the National Association for the Advancement of the Colored People, an inter-racial organization composed of about 90,000 colored members and 10,000 white members who are banded together to make America a real democracy. It is nation-wide in its influence, having about 350 branches in 43 states. The Governor of Minnesota, J. A. A. Burnquist is the president of the St. Paul branch of the association.
The eleventh annual conference of the association was held in Atlanta, Georgia, early in June. Much doubt was expressed prior to the conference as to whether the plain truth in re
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 the nces of relatives or
gard to the race question could be spoken in Atlanta, but the association was true to its colors and every statement, every speech was frank, straight forward, evidencing no fear, but marked with sincerity.
The keynote of the conference was struck by James Weldon Johnson when he declared that the five principal demands of the colored people were (1) guardy of safety of life by the abolition of lynching if necessary; (2) the colored man's untrammeled right to the ballot upon the same terms as other races; (3) the abolishment of "Jim Crow" cars; (4) equal educational and industrial opportunities; (5) the abolition of segregation, especially in the governmental departments in Washington.
There is no treason in the foregoing program and no true American who believes in true democracy can find any fault with it. If it isn't right democracy, the United States is a fraud and Christianity is false.
From all reports the "Abyssinians"
In Chicago are a lot of ignoranceuses
and criminals, just like the Italians
camorra, labor-sluggers and I. W. W.
who, according to a well displayed notice
in the Chicago Tribune, have
committed 147 murders in Chicago
since January 1 of this year. When
the black men who desecrated
burned the American flag and then
committed murder, have been proved
guilty they should be hanged by the
neck until they are dead.
The colored people in the United States are Americans, born on American soil, the census of 1510 showing that only 496 out of 12,000,000 were born in Africa. If the few who were born in Abysinia wish to return to their native land, they have as much right to do so as the Jews who are trying to found a home land in Palestine, but when "Abyssinians" or any other kind of Africans are guilty of crimes against this country or against any citizens of the country they should be punished to the full extent of the law.
Nine Held to Grand Jury.
Nine persons have been held to the grand jury by the coroner's jury which investigated the "Abyssinian" disorders in Chicago: two on charges of murder and seven as accessories after the fact. All are in custody except "Dr." R. D. Jonas, the white agitator, who was allowed to go when the others were first arrested; Anderson McGavick, an "Abyssinian."
BESTS SHREWD POLITICIANS.
Henry Lincoln Johnson was elected Georgia member of the Republican National Committee in spite of the schemes to prevent him from winning the honor.
Every possible influence was brought to bear on Johnson. Young Colonel Roosevelt came to him and told him that he must get off the track and allow a white man to be elected. Roosevelt was promptly "cussed out" for his interference, and told to attend to the business of his own state. Finally it was decided not to seat him until he had written a letter stating that he would make no further efforts to be elected and Johnson wrote the letter. However the statement was absolutely true, he did not make any further efforts. They were unnecessary, as he had already been elected by a vote of 12 to 3 for Roscoe Pickett, a white man, but for fear that the credentials committee would reverse its decision and unseat him, the fact was suppressed until it was too late for a change to be made. Politics as played in conventions is largely a battle of wits. Johnson matched his wits against some of the shrewdest minds in the game of politics and won.
"THE TRAGEDY OF THE HALF"
LOAF"
THE APPEAL heartily endorses every word of the following editorial from our entertaining 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 HALE LOAF. For 250 years he was so told that he was entitled to NOTHING—that he even enjoyed life itself by suffrance. 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 uninstured 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 teachings of the old school, who led him to the murder of peonage and serfdom MUST and WILL spurn the Half Loaf and lay hold onto the WHOLE LOAF, "so
Carrying the Color Line
There is a tendency among the members of the race to be over sensitive on the subject of color. This tendency is of course excusable to a certain extent, because of the fact that the matter of color is so frequently thrust upon it. But it would be the part wise to insist on policy to forget the fact of color when possible and to regard themselves merely as Americans and good citizens.
Such an attitude maintained with modesty and dignity would of time disarm the outropping of prejudice solely upon color, and would insure the same treatment, accorded people to the same treatment. Carrying the color line as a chip on the shoulder is a sure way of provoking resentment on the part of the other fellow, while a calm and unconcerned demeanor, with proper insistence on the same sort of treatment, insures the persons furnished the public in general is more likely to win acceptance and ensure proper recognition.
Colored people should endeavor to forget their color in public places and regard themselves solely as an integral part of the body politic, with the same rights and responsibilities the same duties and responsibilities the any other class of citizens. New York is a good place to practice such a policy as a cosmopolitan city where every person is so intent on his own pursuits, and the other man or woman does not need to be in touch or she can go his own gait unmolested. The public places and conveyances are open to all, with the provision that each person's rights end where his neighbor's begin. So there is no need to be a neighbor to your neighbor's face, so long as he is different to your color and only asks that you do not infringe on his rights.
SAVE BOSTON AND MASSACHUSETTS.
William Monroe Trotter Makes a Stirring Appeal to the People of Boston to Save the State of William Lloyd Garrison from the Disgrace of Jimcrow Christianity. (From the Boston Guardian.)
Word comes that a public meeting has been held in the People's Baptist Church, addressed by Matthew Bullock and by white men, announcing that Boston is to have a Colored institution Jimcrow educational. This is institutional Jimcrow education, educational and recreational segregation. Here will be a concrete lesson of separate provisions for colored in a semi-public institution supposedly for all men. He hood-education of non-association ability of the Colored public with all the rest in the public life.
Jim-crowm and segregation are an awful menace, degradation and danger in our country. They are put upon colored people only. Jim-crowm in the American people, even for the rest of the American people, even for the looking down upon us and more and as they see that we alone are barred out or separated in institutional and public places. The minute we accept a separate branch or place, the Segregation the argument on us that we practice it, we can get money or position out of it, and so ought not to seek service where they lose money by it. We ruin our case by advising separation with regard to Christian educational places, which should be open to us as we are open in Boston, but never are after, special place has been established. All over the West civil rights are denied. We are even barred from soda fountains, so strong is the Jim-crowm feeling. Our people have no contact with people accustomed to contact with people in fact, they are taught it is unnatural by separate Y. M. C. A. etc.
It is ten times harder to get public service where whites see colored segregated in Christian institutions. In Boston we have more rights and free speech, we have more rights and free speech, we should keep out any else. We then, one leads to another and soon Massachusetts will be as bad as Ohio. Save Massachusetts. The South justifies jim-crow cars in the incompatibility of white and color. In the name of the Abolitionists jim-crow Y. M. C. A. in Boston. It is a concession and help to the South and Wilson. Accept this and we can't stop other things. Our cause and race is doomed. jim-crow breeds jim-crow, and this in principle is of the jim-crow car. Power. Y. M. C. A. in the press, and in meetings. Our future is at stake. SAVE BOSTON.

GIBBS-LEWIS
Two of the Flour City's Popular Society People Form a Matrimonial Alliance According to God's Holy Ordinance and Become One.
Ever since Mr. and Mrs. Cooper Lewis issued the invitations for the wedding of their charming and talented daughter Adah, to Mr. Hiram K. Gibbs, the presiding officers of the J and H Dump Wash Laundry, the favored recipients of the same, were in a fever of expectancy until the culmination of the brilliant event at their home, 353N Fourth avenue south, Saturday, the 14th. The parlor of the spacious residence was tastefully decorated with flowers, palms and evergreens which also offered a background for the matrimonial altar in one corner of the room.
When the appointed hour arrived, while McCullough's orchestra softly rendered the wedding march, the bridal party appeared and entered the parlor with slow and stately rhythm.
Miss Mildred Plummer, bridesmaid, was attired in turquoise satin and silver cloth and carried an arm bouquet of Ophelia roses and Marguerites, Mrs. Harriet Cage, matron of honor, wore white net over organdie and carried an arm bouquet of Ophelia roses.
Little Harriet Cage, the flower girl wore white embroidered organdie.
The bride was gowned in ivory satin, pearl trimming, veil of tulle, wreath of orange blossoms and carried a shower bouquet of brides roses and white sweet peas. The groom and the best man, Mr. Jasper Mason, the bride, joined the bride at the altar. Both were attired in full dress suits.
Mrs. Cooper Lewis, mother of the bride, wore gray taffeta with bead embroidery.
Mrs. E. Gibbs, mother of the groom, wore black net over satin.
The ribbon holders were Messrs. James and Harold Combs, Wendell and Mark Gibbs.
When the bridal party was in proper positions, Mrs. Harriet Oliver saxon, was in the church.
Rev. H. C. Parsons, pastor of Bethesda Baptist church, then proceeded to perform the impressive ceremony that made the twain one.
At the conclusion of the ceremony, Mrs. Blanche Mason sang, "Because," congratulations followed and all went on with the celebration.
Delightful refreshments were served by caterer Dorsett.
The bride was the recipient of a number of beautiful and useful gifts, including a pair of shoes, from which the young couple are held, of which the list is as follows:
Two handsome pictures, "A Devonshire Day" and "The Parthenon," from the collection of C. E. James, E. O. James, G. W James, C. W. Oliver, M. L. Barksdale, N. Goin, T. H. Lyles, W. E. Belliott, F.

THE DEBUT PARTY.
Given In Honor of Misses Marvel R.
Jackson and Frances K. Smith
Was Recherche.
On Wednesday evening of last week the Coliseum, Lake and 27th streets, Minneapolis was the scene of one of the most out of the ordinary social functions the Twin Cities have been favored with for many years.
There have, of course, been numerous debut parties given in the homes of young ladies; but, never before, in the recollection of the oldest inhabitants has a double debut party been given by Mrs. Jackson. That distinction now belongs to Mr. and Mrs. Madison Jackson. 2003 Hammine Ave. and, Mrs. G. D. Smith, 3633 Twelfth Ave. S., who, on the evening above mentioned, gave such a party to their daughters, Miss Marilyn Jackson and Miss Frances R. Smith, the marrying young ladies having rescheduled the age to call themselves women. There are few, if any, better appointed halls for such a function, and the Coliseum was made more attractive and beautiful by the special, installed decorations of Japanese fans, flowers, flowers, ferns and palms for this occasion.
"Tis said: "The best laid plans of mice and men gang of哎呀" and, this adage was deplorably verified on the day of the party, when the deluge of bible pages about to be repeated; and, certainly the ardor of a large number of the more than two hundred invited guests, was decidedly dampened by the Jumis and Jumis and scores of people that remain at home. However, the downfall of aqua pura slackened as the night wore on, and more than 150 were still present, a appearance and all had a delightful beauty. The debatantes were charmingly gowned. Miss Jackson wore pink chameuse trimmed in tulle, a corsage bouquet of pink roses and baby (Continued on Fourth Pages)

There was a roar, a blinding flash—and it was done! The planter lay dead at his feet, while his quivering hand held a smoking revolver! And yet he had fired no shot! It was all so sudden, so vague—but who killed the man? He raised his eyes after a time and chanced to look toward the window—and therein stood "Eph," "the tattler," whom the blacks called a "white folks nigger," eyes wide, lips accusing. "You did that," said he—and the next moment was gone. The black man on the inside heard his footsteps die in the distance as he sped toward the village to tell the townspeople that he, Jasper Landry, had killed the planter! And this being Mississippi, he knew there would be no trial—only the rope, the torch, the flames of Hell—and death!
Two hours later Jasper Landry and his family were hid away in the swamp while bloodhounds and a thousand men were scouring the neighborhood, crying out in diabolical tones for their blood. Two weeks passed—and starvation compelled one to venture out in quest of food—then the capture, and—

Owing to the ugly rumors afloat about the city I would like to ask the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. two pointed questions.
First—Why was it that the name of Mr. John Walton, from whom the thought emanated to send Atty. J. Louis Ervin to Duluth, to investigate the recent lynching, and who secured the money and made it possible for him to go, was not mentioned in its last meeting. James Church last Tuesday night?
Second—Why was it that the name of Mrs. S. L. Maxwell, who displayed such courage in denouncing those in charge of the bodies of the men lynched for allowing them to be viewed by the public, and had them

The Latest Addition to St. Paul's Professional Group.
Dr. L. Raymond Hill, a recent graduate of Mohairy Dental College, Nashville, Tenn., has successfully passed the Minnesota State Dental Examination and will shortly open a well equipped office in the city of St. Paul.
During his extensive college career he was an active member of the Omega Psi Phi fraternity and was a delegate to the national meeting held in Boston, Mass., in December of last
A. E. H.
year and was elected Grand Keeper of Seals.
Dr. Hill is a specialist in constructive anaesthesia and is prepared to furnish the highest class of professional service in dentistry.
Dr. Hill was born in the state of West Virginia and was educated in Ohio and Tennessee.
He is quite prominent in high Masonic circles and is also a Noble of the Mystic Shrine.
Of the one hundred applicants who took the examination with Dr. Hill, he was the only colored person.
Watch for the announcement of the date of opening his office which will be strictly modern and up-to-date in every respect.
REPORTS ARE MADE ON DULUTH LYNCHING.
At a Meeting of the St. Paul Branch N. A. A. C. P. at St. James Church
Responding to the call for a meeting of the St. Paul Branch, N. A. A. C. P., St. James A. M. E. Church was packed to capacity to hear reports from the -ecent mob murders at Duluth. Dr. Valdo Turner presided and Atty. J. Louis Ervin, who went to Duluth to investigate made a lengthy and concise report as listened to with profound attention. Atty. W. F. Francis also read the report of a special detective who was sent by the association. Both reports caused little doubt to be left in the minds of the audience that the lynched men were innocent of the crime for which they were murdered. It was also established in the minds of the people that no one of the fourteen colored men now in the Duluth jail was guilty. The question was asked to contribute something toward defraying the expense already gone to and in a few moments $159.19 was laid upon the table.
Twelve of the men who were members of the mqh have been indicted by the special grand jury and have been placed in jail charged with murder in the investigation. Investigations are still in progress and when the men charged as aforesaid are brought to trial their conviction is confidently expected.

“fitted it like a glove” is a very mild
statement of the ease; for seldom, if
ever, were more beautiful pictures
presented to the public; and the fact
that they were ‘living ones added
much to the enjoyable occasion,
‘The entertainment consisted main-
ly 0 ftableux vivants entitled: “The
Children’s, Friend,” “The , Angel_ of
Merey,”“Mammy' o” Mine,” “Indian
Princess,” “The Bachelor's. Reverie,”

MONDAY EVE’G, JULY 19
On the evening of our last excursion the street car tie up worked
a great hardship on the band, several of our best musicians were
unable to make connections, therefore we weren't able to give our
many friends and patrons the best of music and we were work-
ing under a great handicap. We can now deliver the goods and
will on Monday evening, July 19th. Come and hear the band
concert on the dock before the boat leaves. Get your ticket early
