PAUL. While' THE APPEAL is not an ardent advocate of Prohibition, it believes that along some lines, there has been much reduction in crime under prohibition laws. The research specialist of "The Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals of the Methodist Episcopal Church" has made a report of what he found, here as follows: July 1, July 1, 1918, 1919, to July 1, July 1, 1919, 1920, 180 137 80 129 463 445 80 41 19 10 461 300 3,335 1,130 56 56 9 53 1,130 15 14 16 1 3 3 21 9 24 26 34 27 70 1 387 49 July 1.

Two thousand two hundred and fiv arrests less in a year means less work for the police department, less cost in the police stations and jail, less suffering and disgrace to wives and children and oftimes less men later in the workhouse and penitentiary. The increase in burglary can be accounted for by men trying to break into cellars and drug stores, where they thought they might find drink. The increase in vagrancy is possibly caused by some of the men not having saloons to spend the night in and were compelled to spend their time upon the streets. HONOR GIVEN WHERE IT'S DUE. THE APPEAL acknowledges the receipt of an invitation to a com- A. B. "The Great Emancipator" the Anniversary of Whose Birthday Will be Celebrated to-day: FREDERICK DOUGLASS pimentary banquet to be given to Dr. Charles Edwin Bentley, D.D.S., at Vincennes Hotel, Chicago, Monday evening, February 21, by a number of dentists, physicians and citizens of Chicago. We know of no man in Chicago more entitled to receive such a recognition of merit than Dr. Bentley. He has published thirty-one contributions to dentistry, has delivered lectures all over this country. There are also on record in various Dental Journals discussions of more than fifty papers by Dr. Bentley. He is an honorary member of the Wisconsin State Dental Society, and the Freeman Dental Society, Washington, D. C. Member of the National Dental Association, Chicago Dental Society, Northern Illinois Dental Society. Is a life member of the Illinois State Dental Society. He was president of the Onontographic Society in 1889 and held all sorts of offices in dental circles ever since. The givers of the banquet are to be congratulated upon their ability to recognize the ability of Dr. Bentley and give honor where honor is due. THE IMMIGRANT QUESTION. The hordes of foreigners who are planning to come to this country, if possible, are a menace to the opportunities of the native born colored working people who should be protected by appropriate legislation. Two suggestions have been offered with respect to proposed immigration legislation, in addition to the percentage basis submitted by Senator Dillingham. One is that the number of immigrants permitted to enter from any particular country be governed, as far as possible, by the percentage of that element of immigration which over a period of, say, the five years immediately preceding the war sought to be naturalized, the number to be regulated at the termination of each five—or ten-year period. Government statistics should be available for such solution. Another suggestion is to compel each immigrant to hold a license costing, say, $12 annually so long as he is not naturalized, without which he could not be employed. This would provide a source of Federal revenue and subject the immigrant to taxation which he now escapes. If it is worth coming here to work, it is worth paying for the privilege, and those races which take no interest in this country other than to receive high wages and then return should be penalized for their indifference to American institutions. The colored people all are citizens and taxpayers, and their interests should not be overlooked. WOULD "CONVERT" THE JEWS. Some members of the Episcopal board of missions favor the raising of a fund of $1,000,000 for the purpose of converting the Jews, "because they are losing faith in Judaism and becoming atheistic. This move brought a quick retort from many of the rabbis, three of whom we quote: "Attempts to 'convert' the Jew have never been successful," said Rabbi Joseph Stolz of Isaiah Temple, and the thronged synagogues refute the charge that the American Jew is straying from his faith." Rabbi Stolz said that reports that the Episcopal Church might be induced to appropriate large sums for Christianizing the Jew were too ridiculous to discuss. Rabbi Abraham Hirschberg of Temple Sholom declared that Judaism was stronger than it had ever been and that the American Jew was one of its greatest factors. In Europe they have had for hundreds of years, a great way of "converting" the Jews by surrounding the ghettoes and murdering men, women and children. In Hungary, recently, hundreds of Jews have professed Christianity to save the lives of themselves and families, but all of the certificates of baptism were overprinted in red, "Not good in case of pogroms (massacres)." The Jews of the United States will not rush to Christianity because they know that American Christians would then segregate them and compel them to ride in jim-crow cars and lynch them just as they have their colored brethren. "NONE SO BLIND AS THOSE WHO WON'T SEE." Representative Clark of Florida, speaking before the House census committee, denounced the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People as an organization composed of "Meddling, fussing" persons who "are working on IGNORANT Negroes of the South to keep themselves in good positions." Mr. Clark needs a lot of information about the N. A. A. C. P. which he seems not to have, and his denunciation certainly shows his ignorance and color prejudice—another evidence of ignorance. Mr. Clark is, however, wise enough to see that if the object sought by the N. A. A. C. P. in its content before the committee is obtained, his chances for polishing the seat of his pants on a seat in Congress will be mighty unsartin. Hence his bejection. A NEW SENSATION. Missouri was treated to a new sensa- tion this week, when Hon. W. M. Moore, the first colored man ever elected to its legislature. was sworn in and took his seat with the other members of the House. He was elected from a district in the fashionable "West End" of St. Louis. It is hoped that he will make good and that other colored men will follow him until a colored legislator will create no sensation whatever. Although February is the shortest month of the year, it carries a number of important anniversary days.

TALK YOUR WORK UP. I beg of you, do not talk your work down. You cannot build it up by talking it down. If you cannot talk it up, for gracious' sake keep still and say nothing. We don't have much trouble about what we don't say. If you must tell your troubles to someone, tell them to God, but don't tell them to the people around about you. No business man or professional man or any other person, but don't think through properly ever talks about the difficulties of his work either publicly or in his work. The general of an army should know full well all the difficulties that confront him, but the less he says to his soldiers, the more talking are two different things. It is said that Von Motkite was once asked to what he attributed the success of the Duke of Wellington as a great general. His answer was that he attributed it to the knight who could hold his onue in seven different languages. If we can hold our tongues in even one language, it will help a whole lot. The knight is half of the battle. Don't become sour. Don't become a grump. Don't become a sorehead. Keep seriously sweet or sweetly serious. Especially in closing a work, keep mum and keep sweet no matter how hard it may be. E. W. Gilles, E. W. Gilles, Minn. A large number of Miss Cornelia Benjamin's friends gave her a very pleasant surprise party last Friday evening at her home on St. Anthony, near Lake Street, left last week for an extended visit with her aunt, Mrs. Josephine Ford, near Columbus, Ohio. A large crowd was on hand to witness the program of five bouts of the auspices of the Gateway Athletic League, pleasing and interesting, and with the exception of two went the schedule number of rounds. The curtain raiser was a free-for-all battle ring and ended in a draw before the last two contestants standing. The second bout scheduled for four rounds between "Sterling Duke" and "Kid" Miller was a good one, in view of the fact that Miller at an hour's "Duke" opponent who could not appear. The bout ended in a draw. The third bout scheduled for four rounds between Barney Harris and Joe Youngworth was also a good one. Youngworth sprained the thumb on his left hand and the wrist and was thereby handicapped. The bout ended, giving Harris a shade over Youngworth. The fourth bout scheduled for four rounds between Victor Daniels and Joe Bideaurene was good and snappy. Daniels did not idle last very long. Daniels knocked out Bideaurene in the second round. The final bout of the evening scheduled for six rounds was between Jimmy Branson of St. Paul and "One Round" Sylvester of Chicago. Sylvester got his title by knocking out his opponents in the first round; but in the end of that came very near being knocked out in the first round. Branson fought from the tap of the gong and kept Sylvester on the ropes. Sylvester started off well, weakened toward the end of the first round, and would have been knocked out, but the gong saved him. He could hardly make it to his coren. The second round he looked dazed, and Branson knocked him through the fight. The fight was stopped in the second round, Branson scoring a knockout. Johnny Walton, manager Curley Ulrich, referee.

Ten advertisers using six inches each weekly is better, it says, than one advertiser using 60 inches. To have a large number of small advertisers on a point, it contends, than to rely upon a few large users of space for necessary revenue. SCANDAL Did you ever notice that "talk" doesn't hurt a man? Perfection is not looked for in a man, and when some one tries to injure a man by ranting at him, you are likely to one who is probably attending to his own affairs, is elevated in the hearer's estimation, while the informant is lowered accordingly. If a man knocks along doing fairly well, people realize that while he has some knowledge of the man's behavior, he is charitable enough to overlook these faults. But it is difficult with a girl or woman. No matter how good and pure a woman may be, let someone start an infamous lie about her appearance, and then pass it along, and there is always some one to believe it. That lie can never be lived down. It may burn low, but goosepips loving are ready with new ideas. Did you ever think that you could goosepips goodly people are in this respect?—Exchange A. B.

The Grim Reaper is still busy in St. Paul, and among those who fell victims to his scythe last week was Mr. John A. Sayles of 479 Rondo St. Mr. Sayles was born in Atlanta, Ga., in 1875, and consequently was 46 years of age at the time of his death. He had followed railroad and hotel work as a profession, and made friends of all with whom he came in contact. He came to St. Paul many years ago and for the last 12 years of his life was employed at the Minnesota Club. He was an ardent Mason and held membership in Perfect Ashlar Lodge A. E. No. 4. F. and A.

St. Paul INSIST ON GETTING CLOVER LEAF BUTTER TILDEN PRODUCE CO. CHURNERS RETRIBUTION. There was a man whose fame was won, By blowing in an empty gun. No sooner in the gun he blew, Than off this mortal sphere he flew, And met the girl in yonder scene, Who lit the fire with kerosene. And there he saw in vengeance dire, The one who called a man a liar. He was huddling close as if for life, Beside the man who whipped his wife. Take warning each, take warning all, For retribution sure will fall On him who does a careless deed, Or wrongs another without heed. Elbert W. Gilles. T. H. CAMPBELL S. W. SANDERS Tel.
