Special Notice
Send your subscription to this office, along with your notes. We are "delivering the goods." You do your part. If the people of the Twin Cities want a newspaper, they should try and make one.
We learn through some of our best young people that one evening last week they were refused service in one of our common Ice Cream parlor, Cor. of St. Peter and West. Their refusal was outright. The young people walked into the place after the theater and after taking seats were handed cards upon which was printed this inscription: "We do not serve colored people." One of the white waitresses refused to hand out the cards on pain of dismissal, but others handed out the cards to the young ladies, one of whom tore it up.
This is a clear case of discrimination which can and should be stopped immediately and the management subjected to a heavy fine. It being against the laws of the state of Minnesota.
Go to Utley's Barber Shop for your Tonsorial work—"Your Bath"—and your "Twin City Star."

The pastor's illustration of the departed's life work and character was his eulogy.

Prayer by Rev. J. W. King. The departed requested sister Fannie Pierce to sing "Gathering Home." which was gathered rendered. The friends present then viewed the remains. There were many "old vets." present some from the Soldiers Home. They follow closely. Who shall be next? The ladies of the G. A. R. were also in attendance.

"Billy" Coalson is known to every legislator who has served in the state legislature for the past twenty or thirty years. He served as messenger for five Iowa governors, beginning with Governor Frank D. Jackson in 1893.

The Fraternal Societies, Clubs, etc., deserving notices of coming events should send copy early for prompt service. The entire community has my thanks in advance for what ever support they may give.

INJURED TRYING TO ESCAPE.
Colored Man Breaks Arm in Police
Raid—Many Are arrested.
In attempting to escape from the Jasamine club, on the second floor in the rear of 245 Nicollet avenue, when Captain Thomas Garvin and a squad of police raided the place last night, Edward Hughes, colored, jumped from the window and broke his arm.
The raid resulted in the arrest of twenty men and one woman. All but two of the men were colored and all are held at central station on the charge of frequenting a disorderly house.
The raid was made shortly after midnight, and Henry Mosley, the proprietor, and P. L. Langley, employed at the club, are charged with running a disorderly house.
Hughes, who made the unsuccessful attempt to evade arrest, was taken to the city hospital and after his arm was treated was sent to jail.
Hudson, Wils., July 28.—In spite of the strenuous objections of her father, Gus Slaberg of Lakeland, Laulia Slaberg eloped with her halfbreed negro admirer, C. Tyler, last night. A sorry scene followed at the Union station and the Hudson police were appealed to by the father of the girl, but Cnief O'Keese refused to act without a warrant, as the girl was of legal age.
The young couple secured their marriage license last week in Hudson. Parental objections immediately followed and, according to Tyler, his sweetheart was spirited away to Star Prairie. He followed her there and returned with his would-be bride last evening.
Mr. Slaberg and Louis Olsen, a relative, the mother of Tyler and others were at the station when they arrived at Hudson. The girl was appealed to by her father to leave her sweetheart, but refused.
A fist fight was narrowly averted. Mrs. Tyler stood on the outskirts of the crowd and declared she was there to see that her boy got a square deal. The couple managed to get on the Stillwater train and went there presumably to get married today. Feeling is high in Lakeland, where both the persons concerned reside.
At Stillwater a marriage license was applied for by the couple and refused upon word from the relatives of the girl.

of the interstate commerce rate hear
ing in Chicago Aug. 22° will be the be
ginning of one of the greatest com
mercial battles in history, according
to indications here.
Under the terms of the re-ently
amended Hepburn act, the ratiroads
are going to (ry to convince tho com
talsaon that they are in need of a
seneral and marked advance in freight
rates
Opposing them will be an army of
sbippers and shippers’ organizations
contending that the railroads are burst
Ing with {gotten gains and that the
Increase demanded is only another
scheme for looting the publtc.
One specific charge made by a bie
Chleago corporation is that the North
western railroad is making so muct
money that It conceals from the pub
lic the true volume of its profits.
President Taft has been deluged
with letters from large and small con
porations in all parts of the countrs
imploring him to thwart the lates
| move of the rallroads. He also hat
recelved voluminous petitions from
rallway employes and resolutions from
|rallwaymen's organizations, letters
from railroad supply dealers and trom
| numerous corporations endorsing «
freight rate advance.
Divided on Issue,
| The railway supply houses appear te
be pretty evenly divided on the ques
|tion, Some give general approval te
an advance, while fully as many op
[pose it on the basis that railroad
[equipment {s as cheap now as any
| time in the last ten years and in many
cases a good deal cheaper.
| ‘The letters to the president advocat
Ing a rato increase submit these argu
ments:
| Increase in the cost of living, in
creased wages and cost of equipment
| warrant increased rates,
‘The agitation over railroad demands
4s hurting business and should be end
ed_by giving roads what they want,
‘The arguments enunciated by the
protesting corporations are:
|The railroads have been wallowing
in profits for two decades and thelt
[increase In earnings more than off
‘sets any Increaso in expenditures,
/A rate advance is needed by the
‘roads inrorder to support “atvidents
(on an ocean of watered stock and
| any general increase allowed will be
likely to precipitate another stock
watering panic of the 1897 brand.
‘The railroads should be compelled
|to open their books and prove that
they need the money.
The alleged increase in expenses it
largely due to grafting concessions te
officials within the management of
the rallroad corporations.
| A good many of the correspondents
who have submitted thelr complaints
to the president appear to be worried
by a report that the burden of proving
the rate raises unwarranted will be
placed on the shippers. Under an ex.
pllelt provision of the amendment

“upon the railroads to prove thelr case

Interest of Public
Health,
St. Paul. — The Minnesota State

Lanesboro Men.
_ Rochester —idney A. Anderson, a
young lawyer of Lanesboro, Fillmore
county, will be the man to make the
race for the Republictn nomination
for congressman of the Firat district
against Congressman James A. Tawn-
ey. This fs the result of the meeting
gt the executive committee of the
First District Progressive league that
met In conference upon the call of
the ‘chairman, Mr. Fraser. Seven
counties in the First district were rep-
Fesented, about twenty-five belng guth-
ered to discuss the situation.
Various plans for conducting » het
campaign that would carry with it-the
prinetples of the progressive element
of the Republican party were dis-
cussed. It was voted unanimously to
ask Mr. Anderson to be the candidate
and that gentleman practically gave
his consent. Mr. Anderson addressed
the meeting, and stated that he would
not conduct a campaign on personal
lines but along the lines of the pro-
gressive principles of the party. His
speech was well recelved, and all pres
ent’ at the meeting volced the opinion
that they had found the Moses they
have long been seeking.
‘A committee was appointed on reso:
lutions and another one to draft a
platform for the campaign. The meet-
ng was an enthusiastic one and har
mony prevailed throughout, the one
object being to get a sultable cand!
date and pave the way for a clean
campaign.
‘Among those present were: Senator
H. A. Rovrud and 0. N. Levang, of
Lanesboro; A. C. Aaby, of Rock Dell;
W. C. Mork, T. H. Kelly, H. B. Luers

Ucan; H. C. Stivers, of Dodge Center;

One of the members present at the
meeting stated last night that it was
the best meeting of its kind ever hold,
and that definite results had been ac:
complished. In his opinion the time
was ripe for action, and if « campaign
was conducted along the lines advo-
cated by the meeting, there was no
Question of its success.
Another in an interview stated that
it was hard to get the feeling of the
publle pulse, but by rubbing elbows
with the voters it was evident that
there was much dissatisfaction among
the voters in the First district.
“We have a man now,” says one,
“who will carry the progressives in
the district to victory at the primaries
and at the polls.”

A night clerk in a hotel sat dozing at his desk at about 1 a. m., when a man in evening clothes came in as if laboriously trying to walk a crack, and said:
"I'm Ferguson; key to room 44."
The guest disappeared in the direction of his room one flight up. In a few minutes a man in his shirt sleeves with a flattened silk hat on the side of his head, and with one shoe on a foot and the other in his hand, came in and said to the clerk:
"I'm Fershon; key to for-for."
"Mr. Ferguson just took his key and went up."
"Mr. Ferguson just fell out window 'n' left key inside. Kindly lemme have 'nother.'—Everybody's."
SCRATCHED SO SHE COULD NOT SLEEP
"I write to tell you how thankful I am for the wonderful Cuticura Remedies. My little niece had eczema for five years and when her mother died I took care of the child. It was all over her face and body, also on her head. She scratched so that she could not sleep nights. I used Cuticura Soap to wash her with and then applied Cuticura Ointment. I did not use quite half the Cuticura Soap and Ointment, together with Cuticura Resolvent, when you could see a change and they cured her nicely. Now she is eleven years old and has never been bothered with eczema since. My friends think it is just great the way the baby was cured by Cuticura. I send you a picture taken when she was about 18 months old.
"She was taken with the eczema when two years old. She was covered with big soress and her mother had all the best doctors and tried all kinds of salves and medicines without effect until we used Cuticura Remedies. Mrs. H. Klernan, 663 Quincy St. Brooklyn, N. Y. Sept. 27, 1909."

A Colonist of Canaan
By izola Forrester
The Southwestern flier drew up at Canaan Junction. It never stopped, merely slowed up long enough to throw out the mall sack, and give the curly-headed boy in the express car a chance to call hello to Nell.
But today it stopped, stopped while one man swung on a sleeper, and the porter dropped a suit case and grip on the platform beside him.
The man left behind was young, so young that he had outgrown his years, and there was a latent, careless strength, mixed with awkwardness about him that reminded one of a cub. Nell took one look at him and caught her breath sharply. She knew him in an instant, but there was a bare chance that he had forgotten her. It had been four years, and four years is a lengthy stretch when one is 17.
He set the suit case down under the ticket shelf, and went back to the water bucket.
"It's hot enough down here, isn't it?" She watched him drain the tin cup a second time before she answered: "We don't mind it much."
"I suppose not. I came from the north. Don't suppose you know any body here named Acton."
The girl's hand closed tightly over the package of letters she had drawn from the mail sack. Her back was to ward him. But her voice was steady and natural.
"No, I don't."
"You'd be pretty likely to know, handling all the mail, and so on, wouldn't you?
"Oh, yes, I would know. I know the name of everybody in this town!
"Except mine."
He came over to the ledge and leaned one elbow on it, smiling in at her cheerfully. She did not answer.
"Maybe he's using a different name," he went on, presently. "He had

plenty of cause to change it, the Lord knows, when he started down this way. I know he's here all right, and I'm going to find him."
As the man left she caught up the telephone receiver and called a number.
"I want to speak to father, please. Is he there? Well, wait. Give him a message. Tell him to come over to the depot right away. Tell him to come around by the river road, not Main street. I want to show him something there."
Then she waited. It seemed hours before she caught sight of the dear old figure, swinging along the river road, his gray felt hat well back on his head, his gray mustache and imperial giving added distinction to the fine, gracious face. The tears rushed to her eyes as she watched him, but she controlled herself, and met him with a smile.
"Sit down and rest a minute, honey. You've got 20 minutes. They—they've wired for you to come down to Alcazar. It's some committee meeting, I believe." She turned away, and bent over a time table, so that he should not see her tell-tale eyes. "You can make the 1:10 local, dear. And—don't bother about coming back tonight. I'm sure they need you down there." "In a rush, aren't they?" laughed the colonel, wiping off his forehead. "Guess it's about their new town hall. It consists of four flags on a center plot at, present, with a geranium bed in the middle. I suppose I'll have to go. Be all right, won't you, Nell?" She nodded and smiled. It was 15 minutes now. She watched the road to Main street every and then, half expecting Every to play her a trick and send the long-limbed stranger back again. It wasn't wrong. She

Warden Not Much for Changes.
When George J. Warden took his manufacturing business to a new location recently it was a noteworthy thing for him to do. For Warden is about as little addicted to making changes as any man in Cleveland. He himself was speaking of this fact a day or two ago.
"I lived more than 26 years in the same house on old Perry street, he remarked, "end for 43 years I took milk
"No, I don't."
told herself over and over again, it wasn't.
A hundred suggestions and plans swept through her mind as she listened to him chat of the new town hall at Alaezar. Then all at once there was a dead silence, and she turned quickly. The colonel stood in the center of the little depot, his hands clasped comfortably under his coat tails, his lips pursed up for a whistle. And he was looking at the suitcase under the window ledge, a suitcase with the owner's name written boldly across it, "J. P. Dexter."
Nell leaned her hands on the desk and waited tensely. She had forgot ten to hide the suitcase. In all, honey girl, the cat wouldn't stay in the would-be room and you going to all this trouble just to try and save your dad from himself." The colonel spoke very calmly, very reflectively, almost with a glint of humor in his blue eyes, as he saw the look on Nell's face. "When did Jack Dexter get here?"
"Father, listen." She put both hands up on his shoulders and leaned her face against his chin. She was just about on a level with his chin. "You must take this train. Surely, when you know you're in the right, it doesn't matter what other people think. They don't know for sure that you are here yet. The night operator said you were, but I know he isn't certain. I can turn Jack Dexter away. He didn't know me at all. Think of them sending him down here to binge you back, the boy that owed everything to you." "He had to do his duty if they sent him. I certainly wish it had been some one else. I always set a heap by Jack. He's a right tue boy. Studied law with the judge after we left, Neil. I understand he's prosecuting attorney."
From the bridge came the whistle of the 1:10. She was on time to the minute. The ticker was calling the Canaan operator, and she went to it, the tears streaming from her eyes. As the local pulled in the colonel stood in the doorway and swept his broad-brimmed felt hat off in a general salute.
And the 1:10 pulled out without its extra passenger.
Somebody came hurrying along the platform and into the depot.
"I can't locate him yet, but I'm going to stay over—" Jack Dexter stopped short and whistled softly under his breath. The colonel held Nell close to him, and smiled.
"How are you, boy, how are you?" he said, heartily. "I can't offer you my hand, because, you see, they're both engaged. I might glad to see you again. Jack. Just take your suitcase right over to my house, sir, and we'll have a good dinner before we start north tonight. "He put up one hand as Jack started to explain, and shook his head warningly. "No need for explanations. I understand the situation thoroughly. I don't want to disturb Nelle here, with any of the details."
"But, Colonel Acton," Jack exclaimed. "You don't know what I'm attire. I came down to let you know, that that indictment is squashed flatter than a pancake. The whole city is waiting to welcome you back, if you'll only come. The president of the bank confessed to the full amount, swore he had made a scapegoat of you, sir, and then gracefully committed suicide. It was the wisest thing he'd done in five years. "I swore, that that's too bad," the colonel said so carefully. "I need not have done that. I was comfortable down here. It's home to Nell and myself. In fact, we feel rather responsible for the future of Canaan. Mighty fine of you to come down and let me know, Jack, though; mighty fine." "I wanted to be the first to tell you, sir." Dexter's hand gripped the colonel's closely. The colonel smiled in a pleased, comfortable fashion all his own.
"We keep our word, we Actons," he said. "Don't we, Nell?"
"I can hardly say that," she faltered.
"I—I didn't tell the truth to Mr. Dexter when he asked me if I knew you I just couldn't. I don't know what he must think of me."
"Think of you?" gasped Dexter. "I think you are the bravest, trust, bulliest—"
"The colonel glanced at his watch.
"We will all lunch in honor of the occasion over at the hotel, sir. Jack, just give my little girl your arm along Main street. I'll lock up the station and carry the suitcase until the next train comes along. No, sir, I can't permit it, as my guest, you will allow me to have my way." Jack hesitated still, looking down at the heavy case, and the colonel gave him a delicate poke in the side."Ladies first, sir, right about face—forward, march!"
from the same family, never missing a day. Then, for 31 years I was shaved by the same man in the same shop "Our family began taking milk from Mr. Schurmer, a farmer out Strongsville, way, about fifty years ago. When he died we bought milk from his sons and for 42 years we got milk from them without missing a single day. Eight years ago a man by the name of Shuman bought out their milk business and we have been taking milk of him ever since. So you could almost say that I've been getting milk from the same place for an even half century." -Cleveland Plain Dealer.
A parson was applied to for advice by a member of his congregation, who complained of the continual noise made on a trombone by a next-door neighbor.

"Such a man might possibly be a good Christian," the parson replied, "but his next-door neighbor couldn't."

CUBS AND ATHLETICS PICKED TO PLAY THE WORLD'S CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES
Member of the Chicago Team Says Pittsburg Is the Club His Outfit Will Have to Beat—Confident Mack Will Take Honors Away From Hughie Jennings in the American League.
TWIN CITY STAR.
"It begins to look as if the Chicago Cubs and the Philadelphia Athletics are the teams that will be fighting for the world's championship the latter part of October," said a member of the Cub's team a few days ago.
"I'm not saying this because I happen to be drawing salary for playing with the Cubs, but it is my honest belief that we are going to cop the pennant in the National league and it is my opinion that Connie Mack's bunch is certain to land the rag in the American league.
"Can we beat the Athletics? I'm surprised that you should ask such a question. We can beat any team that ever played baseball. It's true the Sox trimmed us once, but that's a story that hasn't been fully told, so I'll not attempt to explain it. They couldn't do it again."
The Detroit bunch will be lucky if it finishes in second place this year and that eutuf known as the Boston Speed Boys is going to give the Athletics a run for their coin, but I feel sure that Connie Mack will land in front and the Chicago and Philadelphia fans will get to see the battle for world's championship honors.
"I know the race is by no means over and we have a lot of games to win, but with Reulbach, Overall and Brown back in condition we have a twirling staff that is second to none and the rest of the team is as good as any other. Some of the others have individual batters who lead us, but as a team they don't class.
"I'm looking for the Giants to blow up pretty soon and I believe it will be the Pirates who will be at our heels when the National league race is finished. The Pittsburgh bunch seems to have shaken that slump and they can be expected to come fast from now on. Some say it was because of the failure of the club management to pay promised bonuses that the Pirates didn't play up to last season's form, but I don't believe it. Every team has its bad days and think it was just natural fall down that put the Pirates down in third place. I'll bet they beat New York for second position. See if I'm not right. While I'm confident the Cuba will win anyway, I'd rather be playing against New York than against Fred Clarke's crew."
Hughey Jennings remarks that two seasons ago, when the Tigers started on their first eastern trip, they were absolutely in last place. They were .276 percentage points behind the Athletics. They were playing sand-lot ball if sand-lot ball was ever played. Quoting the manager: "I was almost in despair and I verily believe that the only reason I was not driven out of Detroit was that the fans were charitable enough to give me the credit for playing the year before. Well, sir, we started out on the road and, when we came back on the road, and when we came awful .276 percentage points. We had played 26 games and had won 20 of them, and it wasn't long until we were at the top. You know the rest."
It is an odd fact that the baseball teams representing leading cities in the United States are seldom called by their proper names. When fans are talking baseball they rarely refer to John McGraw's great team as the New York Nationals, but affectionately cling to the time-honored name "Giants." This is the case practically all over the country, and the reasons for it are interesting. With two ball teams in a major league city it is easier to distinguisht between them by using nicknames than tacking on the name of the league which each represents. Hence we have the "Giants" representing the metropolises in the National league and the "Highlanders" or "Yankees" doing the same in the American league.
In the old days, say twenty years ago, the same practice prevailed, but not exactly for the same reason, as two clubs in a single city, barring Philadelphia, could not live. The New Yorks were first nicknamed the "Glants" in those days because the players were all big men. Buck Ewing, Tim Keefer, Roger Connor, Bill Brown, George Gore, Ed Crane, Jim O'Rourke and Mike Tiernan were six-footers and powerfully built. The Brooklyns were called the "Bridegrooms" because majority of them and just because they were the Chiccots. All anthers were known as the "White Stockings," for the reason that they were hose of that color, and the St. Louis Browns under the leadership of Comiskey were similarly named. So were the old Cincinnati Heds, while all the Boston teams were popularly as the "Beaneters."
The Cleveland, with Pat Teebau at the helm, were dubbed "The Spiders", as some of the players were slightly built, and had thin legs. The old Detroit champions were always called "The Wolverines", and the Pittsburgh team bore the name of "Smoky City" and "Pirates" from time immemorial. The Washington were halled everywhere as "The Senators"; while in Quakertown the Phillies and the Athletics were the same old Avals. The Indianapolis team was nicknamed the Hopsters, and the old Metropolitan of the American association were known familiarly as the Mets. The Louisville were the Colonels, and in 1834 there was such a team as the St Louis Maroons in the defunct Union association engineered by H. V. Lucas.
Nowadays we hear of the Boston Red Sox of the American league and the Boston Doves, named for their reputed owner, George B. Dovey. The Brooklynns are staggering under the name Trolley Dodgers, and in Chicago we have the Cubs and White Sox. The Clevelands have been nicknamed the Naps because the great Lajote is their leader, while the Detroits are known all over the land as the Tigers. In St. Louis the Browns and the Cardinals are rivals

of patronage. The Washingtons have shaken the Senators for the Nationalists, but the Cincinnati and Pittsburgurs still stick to the Reds and Pirates. That is the case with the Phillies and the Athletics in Philadelphia, too.
Some of the other nicknames are the Baltimore Oroles, the Jersey City Skeeters, the Newark Sailors, the Providence Clam Diggers, the Flour Citys of Rochester, the Buffalo Bisons, the Montreal Royals, the Milwaukee Brewers, the St. Paul Angels the Kansas City Blues, the New Orleans Pelicans and others too numerous to mention.
When the last count was taken National league pitchers had struck out 1,549 batmen and have given 1,555 bases on balls. These statistics have little comparison with the figures of strike-outs and walks in the American league. Up to the game time, there had been 1,991 of the former and but 1,372 passes. Basing the ultimatum on the old ivy frescoed assumption that players don't tie, ban journalists wheels excel this season.
The race for that automobile prize which is to go to the best batter in either of the big leagues is growing hotter every day. Napoleon Lajole has the lead in the American league according to the latest figures, but Ty Cobb is a close second. Lajole on the Naps' eastern trip let down some in his hitting and was outbatted by three of the Boston players in the series there, but did not lose the lead. There is no cleaner hitter in baseball than Lajole and he has gained the lead by smashing them out good and strong. He is not what is known as a "clean-up" hitter like Cobb and some of the others, but just pigs away day by day getting his two, three and sometimes four hits regularly.
Manager Griffith has purchased Third Baseman Breen from the Vancouver club of the Northwestern league. He is said to be a fine hitter and a first-class fielder, and is strongly recommended by Joseph Sudgen, the old catcher, who has been doing some scouting for the Reds out on the coast. Breen will not join the team until fall, after he gets through out there. Downey is doing so well at third base that he is not needed just at present.
Merkle Equals Elberfeld's Feat.
The feat of Merkle in scoring all three runs for the Glants the other day recalls what Kid Elberfeld did once when with the Highlanders. He beat Rube Waddell by scoring all the runs and making all the hits in a game on the hiltop.
Says Cobb is Incorrectly Scored.
Secretary Richard of the St. Louis Brown's says Detroit scorers are padding Ty Cobb's batting average.
He says Cobb is not batting well, and that if scored correctly he would fall below .300.
Bresnahar Would Sell Sallee.
Manager Bill Dahlen of the Brooklyn baseball team says that Roger Bresnahar of St. Louis offered him Pitcher Sallee and Hulswitt, a short stop, for Bell. Bell is a right-hand pitcher. Dahlen says theer is not much chance of that deal going through. Bresnahar also has offered his southpaw for McIntire and Riche of the Chicago National league team. Bresnahar told Manager Chance that McGraw of New York wanted Sallee.
Lange Played With Lumberjacks.
Frank Lange, who is doing so well on the slab for the White Sox, played his first baseball with the lumberjacks in Wisconsin. He came to the White Sox from the Des Moines team of the Western league.
Zeider Does Some Sooting.
Rollie Zeider did some scouting when absent from his team. He saw two promising ball players, but they had both been gobbled up by eastern clubs.
Struck Out Lajole.
Chris Mahoney, a Boston Red Sox recruit, caused considerable comment on his first appearance for that team by striking out Larry Jaloje.

A doctor relates the following story: "I had a patient who was very ill and who ought to have gone to a warmer climate, so I resolved to try what hypnotism would do for him. I had a large sun painted on the ceiling of his room and by suggestion induced him to think it was the sun which would cure him. The ruse succeeded and he was getting better rapidly when one day on my arrival I found he was dead."
"Did it fall, after all, then?" asked one of the doctor's hearers. "No," replied the doctor, "he died of stroke."

ITALY'S LABOR PARTY.
ITALY'S LABOR PARTY.
Will the Italian Federation of Labor organize a labor party independent of all other political groups? "This is the burning question of the day in Italian politics," writes Harry Truedale Smith to the Pan-American Press.
We don't know. But it will not be independent of the Black Hand Society. We do know — that the "Burning question of the day" in American politics is the "Fete Champetre of Southern Savages roasting alive human beings of our race, who have no protection, under the flag whose honor they upheld—from those ingrates, whose very existence is due, to the free labor of negro slaves; or from their country, for who's freedom a negro was the first to shed his blood. A red-hot question. What are you going to about it?
TO OUR VOTERS.
Now, that the election is drawing near, our people in the Twin Cities are being looked upon. And they know why. The white man wants your vote. Do you know its value? Are you willing to promiscuously present it to him? Consider carefully, and act accordingly! You should know its worth. They have disfranchised negroes in certain parts for this reason,—that his vote was his defense. If properly exercised, this right which you hold, will place in power the men, who can help you, if they keep promises after election. The days of reconstruction are past. The negro is in his "Era of Political Freedom." Vote for your personal interest, and you will vote for your race's welfare. This does not mean "a small sum of money," but for the men who stand for the principles of right. Assert your individuality, regardless of party. The negro has been the automatic property of the Republicans, without fair compensation, and has not given his support to Democrats, who have individually, helped his race. "Right of suffrage" is your only constitutional right. Be not bound to a party. The party of a few years ago may be different today. The principles of yesterday are changed today. The candidate who stands for right and justice to all men, regardless of color or conditions, who knows the policies of Lincoln and Grant, and lives up to them. Who does not recite history, but promises to give to your people their share of consideration after election, is the man you should vote for. DO YOU KNOW HIM?

It is really interesting as well as amusing to see how careful some of our prospective patrons are with their investments, and how they must have time to think it over and consult with their wife or husband as the case may be, when we approach and ask them to invest 25 cents for three months' subscription to this paper, a race enterprise, which they should be glad to help, if they had the right kind of desire to help their race on the upward tread to progress and success.
But that same careful investor will spend several times that amount in a far less profitable way, and don't call a family conference either.

DAY OF JOYANCE AT SPRING PARK.
But Pastor Bets Foot on Cake Walk
at Colorado Church Plains
Roseate prognostications seemed pale beside the glorious and superbly superlative actualities yesterday at Spring Park, Lake Minnetonka, when there burst into full bloom the colored picnic of which so much has been expected in twin city Afro-American circles of late.
St. Philip's Episcopal church of St. Paul was the groundwork around which the picnic was built, but the "festival occasion" was far from being confined to the communicants of the St. Paul sanctuary. Nearly all the colored people of the twin cities knocked off work with enthusiasm and put in a day of great splendor at the water side.
George Washington Tyler shone with refulgence at the dancing pavilion, and there was no end of boating, swimming, dancing, bowling and fishing.
Some murmurings were heard on the part of the younger and more frivolous element because of the oburducy of the pastor, who put down a large, strong foot and refused to allow the cakewalk. A monster cake had been provided and about twenty couples had the dry goods on, but the pastor was adamant.
Minneapolis Journal.
The above article was clipped from the issue of July 29th.
The negroes of Minnesota are due more respect, and such write-ups from "Mr. Adams' staff" will not be appreciated by that class of our citizens, who are villified by such criticism. We want the Journal to know that "Geo. Washington Tyler" does not represent the negroes of the Twin Cities in any way—also that the St. Phillips Episcopal Church does not give cake walks. Geo. W. Tyler was not present, nor a cake walk proposed. The negroes of the Twin Cities have been subjected to this for a long while. The Journal has produced many articles highly complimentary to them, and apparently has tried to give the truth. But you must understand that they are not all in one class. It may go unnoticed when such appears in your paper as, "A negras hits policy, for a million." But when our best people assemble for a days outing, we expect to be given the respect due to us. We want no more sarcastic write ups, and hope that our race will be given justice through your columns. Lying press notices does us no good. Tell the truth if it hurts you, and it will be shown that these negroes are a credit to themselves. The white journals publish our vices, but our virtues are delicateness in the waste basket—Ed.
NEGROS MAY CELEBRATE
"EMANIPATION DAY."
George B. Kelley of this city has been appointed local representative of the Twin City Star, a publication devoted to the interests of the negroes of St. Paul, Duluth and Minneapolis. Mr. Kelley is well known to Duluthians through such official intercourse as they have had with him at the postoffice.
In the issue of July 28 under the column devoted to Duluth news, the negroes of Duluth are called on to consider a celebration to commemorate the forty-seventh anniversary of the signing of the emancipation proclamation. The Southern negroes always mark the day with exercises and jubilee songs and it is the plan of Mr. Kelley and some of the other prominent negroes of the 500 or more who make up Duluth's colored colony to have a similar celebration in this city. Efforts are being made to engage a hall and the plans contemplate the appointment of a general committee to be made up from the membership of every lodge or club organization of Duluth and Superior. One well-known speaker has been scheduled for the day and as soon as arrangements get further along the names of others will be announced.

Baltimore Friends of "Old Master"
Will Give Him Last Ovation.
Baltimore, Md., Aug. 2.-Great preparations are being made to greet Joe Gans when he returns to this city, for the game little negro fighter will receive no more ovations after this one. He is coming back home to die, a victim of the great white plague. He left Prescott Arizona, last night, his physical condition unimproved by his life in the arid desert to which he fled for relief.
"I know I'm going home to die," Gans is quoted as saying, "but I want to see my old mother and the two children before the end comes. My last two fights left me in too weak a condition to prevent consumption."

JOHNSON'S WELCOME TO NEW YORK.
Fully 10,000 persons, for the most part negroes, welcomed Jack Johnson, the colored heavyweight champion pugilist, when he arrived in New York from Chicago. Johnson was nearly mobbed by his admirers, and the police were forced to use their night sticks to get him through the crowd. Big crowds also greeted the champion outside and inside the Hammerstein Victoria, where Johnson is playing. These latter crowds were about 80 per cent composed of white people. No racial feeling against Johnson was displayed.

To Colored Americans and their Fo-
low Countrymen.
Greetings:—
By vote of the Executive Com-
tee and by order of the President this
call of the National Independent (for-
merly Negro-American) Political
league is issued for the 3rd annual
meeting at Atlantic City, New Jersey,
August 4th and Sb. 1910.
This national convention of Colored citizens is called under what grave conditions touching the object of this organization, the supreme aim of which is to maintain and secure for all Colored Americans the same rights and privileges of citizenship as the white citizens of the United States of America? In the southern states 55 per cent of the nine million Colored citizens of the United States are deprived of the exercise of the ballot, the fundamental right under our system of government, without which there is, for citizens neither protection nor freedom. This rape of a ballot is unannounced plain violence with the intent of which forbids denial of the right to vote because of race or color. The executive head of the federal government within sixteen months officially admitted this disfrenchishment in inaugural address and pallied the violation of the federal constitution to enforce the law in obedience to the oath of allegiance and the constitution. Wm H. Teft even intimated the legality of those devices for nullifying the 15th amendment by state laws which are as much worse than fradulent practices as law is stronger than custom. The legislative branch of the federal government, specifically clothed with power to enforce the suffrage articles of the constitution, has been called upon to prevent the flagrant violation save when actively condoning it by seating congressmen elected under the violation as against contestants entitled to seats if the federal law had been obeyed in their districts in the South. The judicial branch has dodged the issue in all cases brought involving southern disfrenchishment laws, thus by persistent efforts to nullify and embolden the nullifiers of the supreme law of the land.
In view of the very nature of our republican institutions, as well as of the declared reasons for our existence as an independent government, is not the reason why we have twelve millions of Colored Americans to justify and necessitate a national convention, and sufficiently alarming to all believers in our country's destiny and defenders of her democracy to compel their armymy and support?
But what train of evils were let loose upon Colored Americans with disfranchisement! In the southern states unequal and oppressive laws destroyed the rights of blacks, excluded from public places, business, of accommodation, or resort, even public parks and public libraries, barring from state, quasi-public and the public schools, forcing them into separate and inferior schools, fastening upon them the public ignominy of the law, imposing unjust conditions of public travel, casting them even into peonage. They are under the tyranny or taxation without representation, often without representation, of citizens condition of citizens without a lawmaker, law-enforcer, or law interpreter, they are not only the victims of injustice in the courts, but, denied all trial by court or jury, are they the prey of the fledgish white mob, until the law enforcement by lynching of human beings has disgraced our country before the civilized world.
I inevitably this race persecution infects the north, Color prejudice is on the increase. Discrimination based on color in civil rights and in economic opportunities is gaining ground, Jim-crow cars have reached the borders of the national capital, twice color distranchence has been reached, and Dixon's line, while bloody riots and barbarous lynchings have reached up to Illinois, even to the home of the martred Lincoln.
Most harmful and portentous of all in this crusade of race hate and color prejudice is the action, under the present administration, of the federal government itself. For the first time in the United States a president has officially proclaimed color a political disability. By his declaration that he was the president of the office where white citizens objected, he completed southern disfranchement. It is Colored soldiers who are the victims when for the first time a battalion is discharged wholesale and without trial because of an alleged affray with civilians, and the new departure, aggravated by the failure to establish individual guilt after trial, is boldly continued. That unique degradation of free citizens, segregation by race, and the sanctioned and nationalized by a federal commission, while the federal court in support declares the right of even an interstate railroad to segregate Colored passengers.
Unless one-eighth of the citizens of the United States are to be reduced to political serfdom, unless our Republic is to abandon democracy for the caste of color, this present trend must be reversed in a Republic could hardly be. Colored Americans, rally to your own defense. From every town and city send delegates to this annual meeting, there to deliberate and organize for self-protection against this monace. And let all true patriots of whatever race, all friends of liberty, battle for the right to true democracy, that this may be in very truth the home of the brave and the land of the free.
By order of the president, ALEK-
