WILLIAM T. FRANCIS, ESQ.
The St. Paul Dispatch of last Monday contained the statement that Attorney W. T. Francis, of St. Paul had made application for appointment to succeed Mr. Furniss as Minister to Hayti. We noticed in an interview in the Pioneer Press of Tuesday that Mr. Francis denies that he is an applicant and states that if his name has been mentioned it was done by friends in the East and without his knowledge.
When interviewed by the Star and in reply to the question "If the appointment was tendered would you accept it?" Mr. Francis said he most certainly would. The Star is of the opinion that this part of the West is entitled to some representation in the way of Federal appointments and knows of no man who would more fittingly represent his people with honor and credit and give better satisfaction than W. T. Francis. If his friends are working for his appointment the wish of the Star is: More power to their efforts.
RUSSELL'S BROTHER RECEIVES POLICY.
Frank Russell, of New Castle, Ind., was awarded damages for $2,088.85 against the Travellers Ins. Co., of Hartford, Cinn. His brother Earnest E. Russell, a Pullman porter on the Soo Line, died from an injury received on Aug. 16th, while on duty. He was insured for $2,000. in the Travellers, and they had refused to pay the claim. His brother, the beneficiary, brought suit in Ramsey Co., and received the full amount with interest. Mr. Russell, was a well known employee of the Pullman Co., on the Soo-Spokane Limited. The Pullman officials in St. Paul aided the beneficiary in securing this verdict.

STEENERSON TO ASK INQUIRY Wants Investigation of Exclusion of Negroes From Canada.
Washington, May 18.—At the request of a Crookston constituent, Representative Steenerson will ask the state department to investigate two cases of negro exclusion at the Minnesota-Canada border. These were reported to Mr. Steenerson in a letter received today. The case is that of an American negro settler in Canada who, returning temporarily to the United States, was prevented from re-entering Canada and his property sold at a cheriff's sale. The other was that of a widow of a colored man and her two children, who were prevented from entering, the woman desiring to do so for the purpose of marrying a negro settler.

WHICH ONE? IF ANY.
Many of our people complain that they have paid for one of our local publications and never received it—also that they have contributed financially to the same. This publication was started as a business enterprise, on its merits, not as a piteous object, and each issue has spoken for itself. It is supposed that people who subscribe for papers are intelligent, and should know whether they paid for this paper or The Weekly Visitor. Such sayings are generally untrue, and unfair to both papers.

THE TRUTH.
There is today a tendency among colored people and among their earnest friends to tell the half-truth concerning the situation of the colored people and to condemn those who seek to tell the whole truth.
But where is the harm? many think. If we tell the good things, will not the good things multiply and the hateful things die? No. It is a dangerous thing to dally with the truth. Some of the greatest catastrophes in history have come because the mass of men have been deceived and misled as to the truth of conditions by timid, well-meaning persons, who, knowing the awful facts, suppressed them systematically and spread the sweet and gentle lie. There are friends of black folk in this land. There is continual advance in human sympathy. There is an awakening in the white South on the race problem. All that is true. It is also true that the Negro American today faces the crisis of his career; race prejudice is rampant and is successfully overcoming humanitarianism in many lines, and the determination of the dominant South to beat the black man to his knees, to make him a docile ignorant beast of burden, was never stronger than today. This is the truth. Let us tell the truth, unpleasant though it be, and through the truth seek freedom. There is no other way.—The Crisis s.
COUNCILMAN CUMMINGS RE-
ELECTED.
Attorney Harry S. Cummings, a Negro, republican, was recently reelected a member of the City Council of Baltimore, Md. He received a larger majority than any of the few Republicans elected to the city's lawmaking body.
MICHIGAN SENATE KILLS BILLS.
Editor Warren, of the Detroit Informer, urges his political friends to defeat bills against Negroes.
The Senate division of the Michigan Legislature killed two measures at its recent sessions that would have done more to perpetuate the color line in this commonwealth than the whole concentrated meanness of the bad element in our population combined if left unexpressed by legal enactment. One of these was the Verdier bill, to prevent intermarriage between Negroes and white people, which slept itself to death in a committee pigeon hole, and the second was the Ashley bill, pretending to regulate fraternal insurance associations but which in reality would have created a fraternal insurance trust of associations which limited their membership to "white" people.
Senator Murtha Helped to Kill Ashley Bill.
Just before the legislature adjourned Senator James C. Murtha sent the following letter to The Informer:
April 21st, 1911.
In conformity with my promise made to you respecting the so-called "Fraternal Societies" measure, I opposed, with voice and vote the passage of the bill last Tuesday when same was up for consideration before us.
Accept my assurance of esteem and regard and believe me to be, as always, Cordially yours,
JAS. A. MURTHA.
The measure referred to by Mr. Murtha was known as the "Ashley bill," above referred to, and it died o the table at the close of the session for 1911.
TWIN CITY STAR
BROTHERHOOD.
Lo, soul, seest thou not God's purpose?
The earth to be spanned, connected by network,
The people to become brothers and sisters,
The races neighbors, to marry and be given in marriage,
The oceans to be crossed, the distant brought near,
The lands to be welded together.

IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE
We claim to be the best advertising medium of the Twin Cities, and when you're not advertised in the Twin City Star, you need not show—that's all. Because the people read the Star for the news, especially in Minneapolis. The day of the Town Crier is past. Be up-to-date, Advertise and Pay for it. A newspaper is the best medium. It reaches the homes and firesides of people who attend public entertainments. These people never go out and loiter around and read hand-bills and hang-up notices. They read the Twin City Star.

Lesson IX.—Second Quarter, For May 28, 1911.
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Text of the Lesson, Mio. iv, 1-8—Memory Verses, 2, 3—Golden Text, Mio. iv, 3—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
Our golden text and its context, which tells of a time when nations shall learn war no more, is found also in Isa. ii, 1-4. The same glorious assurance is found in Ps. xivi, 9, "He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth." It is written in a different form in Isa. xxxii, 1-17, "A king shall reign in righteousness, * * * and the work of righteousness shall be peace." In Ps. ixxi, 11, we read that "all kings shall fall down before Him; all nations shall serve Him." In Rev. xi, 15, we are told of the time when "the kingdoms of this world shall have become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ." It would be well if teachers and scholars would search out the many passages which tell of this kingdom of peace on earth when the Lord shall come in His glory and occupy the throne of David at Jerusalem, ruling in the midst of Israel, and also as King of kings and Lord of lords—King over all the earth. I will suggest a few passages which will lead to many more if any one is willing to search: Isa. ix, 6, 7; Luke 1, 31, 32; Zech. III, 14, 15; Zech. xiv, 9; Jer. III, 17; Dan. vii, 27; Zeck. xiii, 7.
Not by the armies of the nations, nor by peace conferences, nor by the church, nor by missions, shall this be brought about; nor in this present age of the world's history, but only by Him concerning whom it is written, "I will overturn, overturn, overturn it * * * until He come whose right it is, and I will give it Him" (Ezek. xx1, 27). Not by any nation now existing as such on the face of the earth will He bring peace on earth, but by Israel, soon to be restored and recognized as a nation and to be converted as a nation when they shall see Him coming in glory and shall receive Him as their Messiah. Isaiah's message had special reference to Judah and Jerusalem, Micah's to Samaria and Jerusalem (Isa. 1, 1; Mic. 1, 1).
The words Israel, Zion, Jerusalem, must always be taken in their plural sense unless there is some qualifying phrase or adjective indicating differently. The Zion and Jerusalem of Mic. iii, 12, are the same as the Zion of Mic. iv, 7. It has been overthrown many times; it shall as truly and literally become the throne of the Lord, which He shall build up when He comes in His glory (Ps. cil, 16). In those days when the glory of the Lord shall be seen in Israel nations shall flow to her as literally as the queen of Sheba and the kings of the earth came to Solomon, or as the wise men from the east brought their treasures to the king of the Jews when He was but a babe in Bethlehem (II Chron. 1x, 9, 22-24). According to Mic. v, 2, it was predicted that He would be born in Bethlehem, and He was. The same verse says that He would rule in Israel, and though He has never yet done so He will just as truly and literally as He was born in Bethlehem.
From Jerusalem His word has gone forth into all the world to gather out from all the nations a people for His name, His body, the church, to reign with Him when He shall come in His glory, but that was not revealed in Old Testament times nor until after He had come in humiliation proclaiming a kingdom at hand which never came because they killed the King, and thus postponed the kingdom till He shall come again, for the heavens have received Him until the times of restoration of all things which God hath spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began (Acts 11, 20, 21). Then shall (Mic. vii, 20) be fulfilled, "Thou wilt perform the truth to Jacob, and the mercy to Abraham, which Thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the days of old."
Some nations are against Israel to this day, but they know not the thoughts of the Lord, neither understand they His counsel, and do not know that a time is coming when their gain and their substance shall be consecrated unto the Lord of the whole earth, who will then be ruler in Israel. See verses 11 to 13 of our lesson chapter and all of Isa. lx: When this great peace shall have come on earth none shall make Israel afraid any more (verse 4); they shall not see evil any more (Zeph. lii, 15).
As we consider the thousands still being driven from their homes in Russia let us pray more earnestly for the fulfillment of Isa. lxii, 1-7. A great war must come before there can be this good time of war no more, for it is His determination to gather the nations to pour upon them His indignation because of their treatment of His people Israel.
He shall smite the earth with the rod of His mouth and with the breath of His lips shall He slay the wicked (Isa. xi, 4). At His coming in glory with all His saints shall this be, and then shall the last verses of our lesson be fulfilled, "The Lord shall reign over them in Mount Zion from henceforth, even forever, * * * * the kingdom shall come to the daughter of Zion." This is more fully described in Rev. xix, 11-16, and it is utterly useless to expect peace on earth, a lasting peace, until "this man shall be the peace" and be great unto the ends of the earth, ruling in Israel as the earthly center of His world wide kingdom.

FIFTY YEARS AGO THIS 30TH OF MAY
By JAMES A. EDGERTON.
[Copyright by American Press Association, 1911.]
MEMORIAL day, 1911, is rendered notable by the fact that this year marks the fifteenth anniversary of the beginning of the civil war. On May 80, 1861, war actually had begun, although no great battle had been fought. It was not till nearly two months later that the first Bull Run opened the eyes of the north to the magnitude of the impending struggle. Prior to that time most northern people seemed to think that the contest would be over in ninety days and that all a Federal army had to do to take Richmond was to march in some morning before breakfast when Davis and Lee were not looking.
On May 30 both sides were making ready, but did not realize how big an affair they had on hand. Sumter had been fired on, Union troops had been shot down in Baltimore, blood had been shed in St. Louis, and Colonel

Ellsworth had lost his life at Alexandria. All of these events had been like electric shocks in stirring the north and like magnetic currents in uniting it. Lincoln's call for 75,000 men had been answered by an offer of many times that number, and his subsequent call for 42,034 had been filled promptly, as had also his order to increase the standing army by 22,714. States were clamoring to supply more than their quota, extra troops were being offered from every side, and Lincoln, after his big hearted habit, was listening to the appeals and bringing in regiments here and there above the quota. This process continued until by

July there were more than 300,000 enlisted. So far as men were concerned the administration was suffering from an embarrassment of riches. That end of it was easy. The hard task was to arm, drill and provision the men offered. It was on April 15, just after the fall of Sumter, that the president had made his first call and May 3 when he had issued the second. Yet several governors met at Cleveland and on May 6 asked permission to furnish more troops. The country was on fire with enthusiasm and was clamoring for the administration to do something. Not only were soldiers offered, but money. The first gun that fired on Fort Sumter hurled a shot which ultimately destroyed the Southern Confederacy.
The south was not less active than was the north. Only a few days before May 30 Virginia had definitely cast in her lot with the gulf states, and the whole eleven commonwealths that were to make up the Confederate States of America had taken their stand. The peace advocates were quieted. Both sides realized at last that the clash must come. The issue was drawn, the lists made up, and all that awaited was the trial by force.
The future campaign had begun to assume nebulous form. The cry of "On to Richmond" had been started by Greeley and others. Fifteen thousand Pennsylvania troops were marching in the direction of Harpers Ferry, where a number of Confederates—nobody then knew just how many—were body had been put in command at Baltimore, through which hotbed he soon made it eminently safe for Union troops to pass, and was then in command at Fortress Monroe. Alexandria and Arlington were in the hands of Federal troops, an expedition had pushed up the James river, with base at Newport News, and another force had started a bombardment at Acquia Creek.
Just about May 30 news came that the enemy was establishing a base at Manassas, which was altogether the most fateful item of all, but Washington was still in bizarre ignorance of this, Bull Run being seven weeks away.
In the west three regiments had crossed the Ohio river at Marietta, Bellaire and Wheeling, had taken Parkersburg and were then concentrating on Grafton. General B. McClellan was in command and had issued a proclamation advising the West Virginians to break away, as they subsequently did. There was also activity in Missouri, where Captain Nathaniel Lyon was temporarily in charge. Governor Claiborne F. Jackson and many more officials and citizens were determined that Missouri should go out of the Union. Frank P. Blair, Captain Lyon and others were just as decided that she should remain under the stars and stripes.
Shortly before May 30 Lyon had captured Camp Jackson, in the outskirts of St. Louis, and had been promoted to brigadier general therefor. Through the vigorous efforts of these two men and their coworkers Missouri
was saved to the north, which meant that Kentucky would also remain loyal. It may well be said that this one victory was a turning point in the war. With the border states against the north there might have been a different outcome.
His friends believed that had Lyon lived he would have proved one of the ablest generals on the Union side. Even as it was he rendered a service to his country that no one now can fully measure. The service stands. The promise was ended by his tragic death at the battle of Wilson Creek, in southwest Missouri, three months later.
On May 30, 1801, Ulysses S. Grant was helping the adjutant general of Illinois, mustering in regiments and making out forms in the outer office. Six days earlier he had written to Washington tendering his services to the government and modestly suggesting that he thought himself competent to command a regiment. A few weeks earlier he had declined the captaincy of a Galena company, asserting that he had been a captain in the

regular army and was entitled to a colonelcy. Sherman, Grant's great lieutenant, had beaten his future chief into the service.
Fifty years ago Senator Stephen A. Douglas, after making a gallant appeal for the Union, was stricken with a mortal illness. On May 30 his life was despaired of, and his death followed on June 3. However we may regard Douglas's previous career, his course after Lincoln's inauguration was altogether admirable and atoned for much.
Memorial day was not celebrated until 1868. The "times that tried men's souls" were over. Then the survivors of the war outnumbered the dead. Today the reverse is true, and the graves to be decorated far outnumber the living soldiers left to decorate them. How long will it be until not one is left and the flowers will be scattered only by the children and grandchildren of the "boys who wore the blue?"

CANADA AND THE NEGROES.
The development in the dominion Parliament at Ottawa of a decided sentiment in favor of preventing negroes from being admitted into Canada indicates a radical change of sentiment among Canadians. The negro used to be welcomed in Canada, where fleeing slaves were cared for and protected. Until recently there was little or no discrimination against the negro anywhere in the dominion.
The recently developed prejudice appears to have been caused by the arrival at the boundary of several hundred prosperous negro farmers from Oklahoma who had practically been driven out of that state by discriminating laws. They were finally admitted, as they complied will all the rigid restriction of the Canadian immigration laws, and the Canadian authorities probably feared that the rejection of them would arouse feeling at Washington, as the negroes are citizens and entitled to all recognition accorded other citizens of the United States.
It is more than probable that the opposition to the negroes does not come so much from native Canadians as from former citizens of this country who have settled in Western Canada, and have aroused new prejudice against negro neighbors. Apparently there is no place within the range of American influence where the negro can go and live in peace and white toleration. He apparently is destined to fight merciless race prejudice until his progress conquer it.—St. Paul
Many are finding the path to the home of the Star somewhat beaten down by the many who have long ago considered it a fixture and a necessity. We welcome you—especially those who fostered our opposition, questioning the right of the Editor to start a newspaper. Your attempts to stop it have caused both to suffer. This is the age of the survival of the fittest." Negro newspapers are no longer supported by any faction, or sustained on sentiment. Buy the Best for your money. We invite your inspection and solicit your subscription. This is everybody's newspaper with the news that's Pioneer Press.
While we acknowledge the foregoing to be true, and are grateful for the sentiments expressed, it is also a fact that conditions of today in Canada were caused, in a great part by a criminal class of Negroes, who has within the last decade infested the settlers of even the remotest parts of the Dominion, and they have caused an ill feeling towards all others of their race on account of their modus operandi. The police department is aware of the trouble given them by the so called sporting element. These men have invested the profits of their paramours, (the light fingered damsels of both races,) into illegal enterprises, where they are sowing the seeds of sin, crime and vice. The exclusion of such undesirables by any nation is commendable. These immoral trail-blazers have been the undoing of the Negro in Canada and everywhere else.
Such representatives of our race as those who are now seeking homes in Canada, belong to our constructive element, "who by their rise and progress will overcome the barriers of prejudice and class legislation, which has been caused by that exceptional few of our race who are taken as a criterion from which the Negro race as a people are judged.
NORTHERN PACIFIC'S NORTH COAST LIMITED HAS NEW OBSERVATION CARS
OBSERVATION CARS.
The Northern Pacific's crack train, the North Coast Limited, starting Sunday, May 21st, was equipped with new observation cars just received from the builders. These cars are of special type original with the Northern Pacific, embracing two compartment smoking rooms and barber shop, bath room, library observation parlor and recessed platform. These cars are very popular with women passengers, and the writing desk in one corner of the observation parlor is equipped with special embossed stationery of dainty design for patron's use.
Afternoon tea is served upon request, and a new library of 100 volumes of fiction, history, biography and travel, together with the current magazines, serve to pleasantly fill the idle hours.
The entire train is electric lighted, and the North Coast Limited was the first train in the West to carry sleeping cars with electric lights in upper berth, a feature which makes it very popular with transcontinental travelers.

We are glad that one church has arranged a program for the observance of Decoration Day. This is the day which is naturally dedicated to the memory of the departed dead. Not only to the Brave Black Boys who served their country and did it well, to our relatives, our friends, our fraternities—but to our ancestry as a race, of which we are proud.

A NEGRO ENGINEER.
It may not be generally known, but nevertheless it is a fact that a colored man presides at the throttle of an engine that pulls one of the fastest trains on the Pennsylvania Lines west of Pittsburg. His name is Wm. G. Burnes of Indianapolis, Indiana. He runs between that city and Columbus, Ohio. Mr. Burnes has been in the employ of the company for over thirty-five (35) years. He began as a section hand and was advanced from one grade of service to another as he increased in skill and efficiency until he was promoted to a passenger engineer about twenty years ago. It is said that some of the most successful white engineers of today owe their training to the careful teaching of this man. Moreover he has the reputation of being quite a student and is well informed on subjects of general interest.
Mr. Burnes is a citizen of Indianapolis and he owns considerable property as well as being interested in some good investments.
