MRS. WILSON, THE PRESIDENT'S WIFE SAVED JOSEPHINE BERRY. THE NOBLEST WOMAN QF ALL. VOL. XLI. NO. 23 Is Sa MRS. WILSON, THE WIFE SAVED JO THE NOBLEST W JOSEPHINE BERRY'S FORTUNE Due to Mrs. Wilson's Good Heart— Wilson Jackson the Warwick in the Case. The local public is familiar with the fact of President Wilson's commutation, on Thursday, October 14, of the death sentence of Josephine Berry, the colored girl who had been twice convicted of murder and been finally sentenced to hang Friday, October 15. The Bee has come into possession of reliable information as to the particular influence that saved the unhappy young woman from the most dire retribution of the law. The common impression is that the President's act of leniency was due to the solicitation of various associations and committees, fortified by the recommendation of the Attorney-General for clemency in the case It can be authoritatively stated that the President's final action in the case was not due to any of those influences. As a matter of fact, both the President and the Attorney-General had been annoyed at the form of some of the protests received. The President had repeatedly refused to interfere in the case, and almost up to the day set for the execution had adhered to this attitude of mind. The President was of the opinion that the offense of the young woman was a most aggravated one, without mitigating circumstances, and, moreover, as he stated privately, that it would be an act of mercy to the untutored and misguided girl to let early death relieve her of her unhappy plight. The fact is that the President was turned from his judgment by the appeal to him of his good wife, Mrs. Wilson. It was Mrs. Wilson who was the angel of mercy in the case. It was she who, when all other arguments and prayers failed, stepped to the breach and carried the day. It is not to be supposed that Mrs. Wilson succeeded by means of legal argument or hackneyed appeal to humanity. It must be presumed that she employed a "woman's reason." One does not need to guess that she was actuated by a noble soul, a soul accustomed to breathe mercy, speak mercy and do mercy. The incident confirms her reputation for being one of the sweetest and noblest of women, both of visage and heart. Our readers will naturally be curious to know the special reason for Mrs. Wilson's interest and activity in the case. The case was brought to her attention by Mr. Wilson Jackson, one of the attaches of the White House, who is assigned to duty as confidential messenger and attendant for social functions. His position is such as naturally to bring him under the personal notice of the First Lady of the Land. That this notice is favorable is attested by the fact that he has in succession enjoyed the confidence of Mrs. Roosevelt, Mrs. Taft and Mrs. Wilson. He has been employed at the White House nearly twenty years. The Roosevelts were especially fond of "Jack," as he is often called, and after they quit Washington, frequently sent him personal remembrances, including photographs and other mementoes Mr. Jackson is well known among a wide circle of distinguished officials and personal friends. Mr. Jackson began to take a special interest in the Berry case several weeks ago. He began then to think, and from thinking to act. He appealed to Mrs. Wilson. The result speaks for itself. The humane people of Washington are thankful to the President for his act of mercy. Now they will extend their thanks to Mrs. Wilson and accord her special credit. Needless to say, all will admire the courage, good sense and finesse of Wilson Jackson. May his tribe increase! The Washington Bee HARDING DOOMS WILSON REGIME ON MANY COUNTS In Open Letter G. O. P. Nominee Exposes "Grotesque Inefficiency" in Rule—Change Only Remedy—Senator Willing to Lead People Out of Jungle of Mismanagement—Slogan Is "America First"—Present Administration Leads the Nation Toward Another Industrial Crisis. (From the New York Herald October 24.) Marion, Ohio, October 24.—Senator Harding, in an open letter addressed to every man, woman and child in the United States, indicted the Federal Administration today for unpreparedness for war and for peace, for wretchedly mismanaging the people's business, for perverting government in ways that would have been as intolerable to Jefferson and Cleveland as to Washington and Lincoln, and for bankruptcy of policies and plans. He said the appeal for the election of James M. Cox is an effort to continue in power the wasters, the autocrats and the meddlers, and challenged his opponent, in effect, to state his course clearly regarding the predominant issues of the campaign. Senator Harding especially called attention of the people to the fact that the election of Cox would mean the continuation of the blockade against the League of Nations in its present form, and stated that the best hope of those that desire America to adopt a generous and humane foreign policy lies in his own election to the Presidency. Clear Answer on Vital Issues. The Senator's statement, addressed "To the American People," follows in full: "I believe that the men and women of this country are entitled to receive from any political party seeking their support a clear answer upon the predominant issues which affect the future course of America. "Seldom in the history of our country has there been such an avoidance of this duty upon the part of any candidates as has been evident among our opponents. "The American people are satisfied that the conduct of our domestic affairs has been grossly mismanaged. They hunger for a constructive American policy. It has been my sense of obligation to treat with clarity and definition the Republican plan for putting our house in order. "I call upon the Democratic party to answer the charge that its management of domestic affairs had brought us to the brink of an industrial crisis in 1914, from which only world war saved us, and is even now leading us toward another precipice. "There has been no answer to the well-known fact that they have cost America untold billions of dollars and the precious lives of our sons by unpreparedness for war persisted in for political expediency. "They have made no answer to the charge that they were equally unprepared for peace and reconstruction. "They have made no answer to the charge that their experiment with the American railways, their industrial policy and their maintaining in the Federal Government hundreds of thousands of unnecessary employees has cost the taxpayers of this country a fearful financial burden which our men and women, and even their children, will have to pay. "They have made no answer to the charge that their rule has been one of grotesque inefficiency. "They have made no answer to the charge that during the control which they now seek to perpetuate they have perverted the form of government of our republic and overridden WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY. OCTOBER 30, 1920 the purposes of our Constitution by maintaining extreme and undemocratic centralization of executive power, which would have been an offense to Thomas Jefferson and to Grover Cleveland as much as it would have been to Washington, Lincoln and Roosevelt. Sets Up Constructive Policy. "I have spent this campaign in setting forth a constructive Republican policy. I have demanded the restoration of constitutional government of a representative democracy which shall represent the will of the people flowing up from the people, rather than the will of one-man government descending toward the people. "I have stood for more business in government and less government in business. I have demanded a reorganization of administrative government, so that it shall become a source of pride to the American spirit of efficiency and will remove the drain from the taxpayers. "I have set forth a plan for the conservation of our human resources and one for the development of our material resources. I have suggested means for the protection of motherhood and for the alleviation of human suffering at home, here in America. I have discussed in detail a policy of reclamation, irrigation and development of natural resources, and I have stated clearly a plan for the wholesome expansion of our foreign trade and for the protection of our industries and for the upbuilding and safeguarding of our agriculture and for a merchant marine. "As to our foreign policy and America's full expectation of becoming a member of a wise association of nations, with the preservation of our own independence and national spirit, I have given a conscientious and practical proposal." "I have stated that I am wholly against the proposal to approve our membership in the League of Nations as our opponents insist that it shall be written. Even in the hands of ur opponents that program is impossible. Even were our opponents to be elected, it would result in a hopeless blockade as a sequel to the one which "the President of the United States has carried on since the peace treaty was submitted to the representatives of the people for approval. "I have endeavored to serve in this campaign, not merely to be elected, but to set before the American people, sincerely and clearly, a definite policy for the administration of the United States to bring our people out of the jungle of mismanagement and into the light of a stable good fortune. I have endeavored to serve by doing what I could to harmonize public opinion and unite America behind a foreign policy which shall be wise, generous and humane, though it refuses to mortgage America to the Old World. "We do not know what our opponents stand for. I stand for a united America, a humane America, an efficient America, America first." HAITIANS TORTURED. Treatment by Marines Worse Than That by Germans in Belgium Johnson Avers—Women Were Not Spared, He Says—Banditry More Pronounced in New York Than in Island, He States—People Called Enslaved. There is not as much banditry in Haiti in ten years as there is on the streets of New York City in ten days, and what banditry does exist there is the result rather than the cause of American occupation, according to statements made by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in an address last Monday night at Metropolitan Baptist Church, Twelfth and R streets. The speaker said that General Barnett's report to Secretary Daniels more than verified, the original charges as contained in magazine articles written by him and reiterated by Senator Harding. He said that he had not made the charges until after a personal investigation in Haiti that had been very thorough, covering a period of two months. Women Were Mistreated. "There have been tortures and atrocities in Haiti, resulting from American occupation, that parallel anything that was done in Belgium, in the mistreatment of women and girls," he said. "The United States Government went in with the declared purpose of establishing peace and teaching the Haitians self-government. It has done neither. It has, in fact, unfitted the people there for self-government. "The same administration that made such a point of the rights of small nations invaded Haiti, which was much more peaceful than Mexico ever has been, and by command of the author of 'pitiless publicity' and 'open covenants openly arrived at' it has enforced by the bayonet a covenant whose secret has been well guarded by a rigid censorship from the American people; it has kept a people enslaved by the same military tyranny which it vowed to destroy throughout the world. Confidence Destroyed. "The United States had an opportunity to gain the confidence of the Haitian people. That opportunity has been destroyed. When the American troops first landed, although the Haitian people were outraged, there was nevertheless a feeling which might have developed into cooperation. "There were those who had hopes that the United States would be guided by the traditional policy of McKinley and Roosevelt and that mutual benefit would result. They are now disappointed and bitter." ARTIST RECITAL. The Walter B. Hayson Memorial Musical Society will give an artist recital at Lincoln Memorial Congregational Temple, Eleventh and R streets northwest, November 5, 1920. Harry, Delmore, tenor, of Boston, Mass. is the attraction. "It is interesting to note how every once in a while a man of unusual gifts is given to the world, and how with intelligence, determination, carefully concentrated thought and study, he develops to the point of being of intrinsic worth to his community and to the world at large. Such a personage is Mr. Harry A. Delmore, tenor, the possessor of an unusually good natural voice, with ample dramatic possibilities, wide range and of beautiful quality. This natural voice combined with superior training under one of the greatest of vocal masters, Mr. Arthur J. Hubbard, of Boston, Mass., with whom he has studied for some time, places him in the class of remarkable young artists. Mr. Delmore's singing is characterized by fine interpretation and muscianly treatment of the songs he sings, which cover the classics, oratorios and operatic selections and his enunciation of the various languages is unusually clear. To hear Mr. Delmore once is to want to hear him again and often."—R. W. Hayes. "Mr. Delmore has a very pleasing voice of unusual range and purity. He has excellent control in the most difficult passages."—Guardian. "Mr. Delmore possesses a voice of excellent quality and sweetness."—Crisis. The program starts promptly at 8:30. Patrons tickets, $1, or three (one for each recital) for $2.75. General admission, 50 cents. Tickets on sale at the office of the Standard Life Insurance Company, 1107 U. street northwest, November 1, 2 and 3, from 6:30 to 8 p. m. Tickets on sale at the church November 5 from 7 to 8:10 p. m. Address all communications to A. L. Hill; 1528 Tenth street northwest. Lawyer John H. Wilson, of the local bar, recently tried one of the most brilliant cases ever heard, before the criminal courts of this jurisdiction. After a trying ordeal of three and a half days in the defense of one Bruce Underhue, charged with murder in the second degree, Mr. Wilson came out with flying colors by obtaining a verdict of NOT GUILTY. The case was marked throughout by the fact that it had been well prepared, and counsel for the defense showed at all times that the law applicable to this particular 1910 case had been thoroughly searched and was quite familiar with it. Mr. Wilson was assisted in this case by Attorney Harry A. Dyson. Mr. Wilson also has the honor of accomplishing what has never been done before in this city, by gaining two new trials for a man who had been each time convicted before a jury, and finally having his client set free. We are proud of Mr. Wilson and wish him more and more success, inasmuch as he at all times places the interest of his client above all other considerations. Congratulations! A NOTED ARCHITECT. We notice that Architect J. A. Lankford is driving his n ewLexington Minute Man Six automobile. It is a beautiful design and a master piece of art. It is the latest model and has every comfort for touring and recreation. Mr. Lankford is a great gunner and traveler. Rabbits, quail and ducks on the Potomac had better lay low. Mr. Lankford has been to Indianapolis, Detroit, and Dayton, Ohio, and has brought back with him several signed contracts for the erection of several buildings. He has a national reputation as an architect. DR. M. W. NORMAN'S NEW LECTURE, "WHAT NEXT?" At Metropolitan Baptist Church on November 3. On Wednesday, November 3, Dr. Norman will deliver his new lecture, "What Next?" at the Metropolitan Baptist Church, R street near 12th northwest. The Doctor has a new and far-reaching message for every colored man and woman, and with the election all settled, he will feel free to tell us what to him is next. Seats are free and all are invited to hear this great lecture. Madam Emma Lee Williams, teacher of elocution at the Washington Conservatory of Music and School of Expression, will appear on the program and help add to the fine literary and musical program that will be rendered. Miss Nannie H. Burroughs will deliver an address in the gymnasium of the Twelfth Street Y. M. C. A. on Thursday, November 4, to the members and friends of the National Mutual Improvement Association. Both of these great lectures will be free to the public and are given under the auspices of the National Mutual Improvement Association in the closing days of its great drive. THEODORE GEORGE ALLEN. Theodore G. Allen, of 1333 Wallach place.northwest, passed away on last Monday at 12:45 p. m. He was one of the best known and loved men in the tonsorial profession. He was connected with Hayman Jervis at 718 Florida avenue and also with the Jervis and Allen Express Company. He was a member of Lighthouse Lodge, G. I. B. O. E. of W., and belonged to a number of insurance and endowment associations. He leaves a wife, Ethel; mother, Eugenia; sister, Osceola, and a brother, Henry Allen. Mr. Allen had just purchased a nice home where he, his wife and sister lived in comfort. The funeral was held at Liberty Baptist Church, of which he was a faithful and attentive member. Rev. Holland Powell, the pastor, officiated and was assisted by Rev. Samuel Wallace, pastor of Israel C. M. E. Church. The friends of Theodore Allen are numerous, as was shown during his illness and death. The floral designs were many and beautiful, valued at not less than $200. There were friends from Maryland, Virginia, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and an uncle from Charlotte, S. C. The family wishes to thank the many friends for their kindness and sympathy during their bereavement. ASHBY HAWKINS. A vote for Ashby Hawkins means a vote for John Walter Smith.

Human societies have usually been opposed to freedom of thought—opposed to new ideas. The average brain is naturally lazy. The mental world of the average man consists of beliefs that he has got second-hand and to which he is firmly attached. He is instinctively hostile to anything that would upset the established order of his familiar mental world. A new idea makes it necessary for him to rearrange his mental furniture—a work that requires a painful expenditure of mental energy. To him new ideas and opinions seem evil, because they are thus disagreeable to him. The instinctive repugnance of men to new ideas and opinions is due mainly to mere mental laziness, which is increased by a feeling of fear. The conservative instinct is responsible for the doctrine of laissez-faire (let well enough alone), and the fear that changes may endanger the social structure. A person having such instinct, such opinions and such fear is likely to be a mossback. If the subject is politics, he is a political mossback. Mossbacks of the vindictive and powerful sort are called bourbons. To a mossback or a bourbon new opinions and propositions are felt to be dangerous; they are annoying. Such people honestly consider anyone who asks inconvenient questions about the why and the wherefore of prevailing doctrines a pestilent person. Socrates, Bruno, Gallileo, Luther, William Lloyd Garrison, Abraham Lincoln, Thad. Stephens, Charles Sumner, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony were pestilent persons. The editor of The Bee, for demanding a new political freedom for the black man, expects to be considered a pestilent person. The conservative, or mossback, instinct is often reinforced by pride of opinion—egotism—which hardens into bullheadedness. It is often strengthened by superstition, which is belief in some mysterious, superior knowledge on the part of former political advisors or present leaders. Do not be too bullheaded; do be too superstitious. THE BLOODY WORK In the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave—Lieut. J. Williams Clifford, Special Representative, Colored Soldiers and Sailors, Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Resigns—Usefulness of His Work Strangled by Prejudice and Discrimination of Democratic Administration. Lieutenant J. Williams Clifford, former officer of the 367th Infantry, 92d Division, A. E. F., who for over a year has looked after the interests of colored service men in the Bureau of War-Risk Insurance, recently tendered his resignation as their special representative because of continual limitations of his official duties by prejudiced Southern white superiors Upon interviewing Lieutenant Clifford, he said: "Little by little certain officials in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance have attempted to give my section trouble simply because of their hatred, for the Negroes. Upon one occasion it was claimed that a personal letter was sent out from my office in a franked envelope without a stamp, although the envelope was never produced. Another time I was ordered to stop signing letters written in my section to colored soldiers and friends because they wished them to be signed by a white man. This I refused to do, and I was given to understand that if I did not do so they would get someone who would carry out their orders. It was only after a two weeks' fight that I was again permitted to sign my name to letters originating in my section. Later I was forced to send my dic- --- ent home.

This was all done because there was fear that I would persist in helping colored ex-service men in matters pertaining to their insurance, death claims and allotment claims in a way that might 'embarrass the Bureau of War Risk Insurance.' "Realizing that there was need for a colored man in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance to look after the insurance, compensation and allotment claims of colored soldiers, I succeeded in having myself appointed to the position during the present administration. My official designation has been 'special representative of the colored soldiers and sailors in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance.' By articles in the colored newspapers and magazines and through the enrollment of many volunteer workers, including ministers, doctors, lawyers, insurance agents, social workers, Young Men's Christian Associations, Young Women's Christian Associations, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, fraternal organizations, Urban League workers and other community service organizations, I have been able to stimulate interest in Government life insurance among colored discharged soldiers to the end that millions of dollars worth of insurance have been saved and added to the economic strength of the Negro race. This work, according to letters over the signature of my superiors, has been carried on efficiently.

"My office force of twenty-five employees, including dictators, stenographers, file clerks and typists, has rendered faithful and conscientious service in the interest of the discharged colored service men. Telegrams and letters have been sent to me, telling me of unjust, discriminating and cruel treatment that is accorded wounded colored heroes by medical examiners in certain United States Government Hospitals located in the South. Many letters have been received that would bring tears to your eyes upon reading them. Upon one occasion, in endeavoring to do my duty to my fellow-comrades who fought overseas to help make the world safe for democracy, my letter requesting, a colored Y. M. C. A. secretary of Houston, Tex., to investigate the condition at Camp Logan, Tex., and the treatment of colored War. Risk patients at that institution was held up, it being claimed that such procedure would get the bureau into trouble. There are letters in the colored service men's office from colored soldiers who have been wounded on the battle fronts of Europe and who are now forced to remain in hospitals in the South, that would make your blood boil in reading of the treatment accorded them. The peculiar nature of many cases in the field occasioned by circumstances over which the bureau has no direct control justifies the employment of a recognized representative of the colored race in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance and in the field as medical examiners and field investigators. I believe such a policy would minimize the cases where so considerable a number of colored former service men are apt to be neglected or set aside. I think that the Negroes of America should know these conditions and that they should be brought to the attention of men and women of noble characters and genuine American principles. "The policy of segregation and discrimination enforced by the Democratic administration is un-American and despicable in the extreme. Merit and ability count for naught if you have a black face. In most every Government department the members of my race are huddled together in some obscure corner or room and kept away from the other employees just as if they are infected with some insidious disease. Colored soldiers who fought on the bloody battlefields of France and contributed to the glorious American victory, who are now working in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance, are not permitted to eat with the other employees of the building in the War Risk Restaurant. "It is to be hoped that the utterances now falling from the lips of Senator Harding, Republican nominee for President of the United States, bespeak the genuine spirit of the Republican party and the American Government—a spirit of fairness and justice to all without regard to race, color or creed."

Mass Meeting Speaker Is Arrested on Charge of Disorderly Conduct. (From Dover, Del., Index, Oct. 15.) The Republican party held a colored mass meeting in the Temple Theatre on Wednesday evening, and said event was the cause of some excitement in town, as the main speaker of the evening is now under $200 bond for a trial on October 28 on a charge of disorderly conduct. The meeting itself was an orderly one. The speakers were Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, of Washington, D.C., and Rev. Solomon Hood, of Trenton, N. J. These speakers were sent by Thomas W. Miller, as chairman of the Speakers' Bureau in New York City, who, as Alfred Rakes, the officious chairman of the meeting explained, is a great friend of the colored folks and is always willing to do anything for them. Rev. Hood spoke and went away happy, as the only remembrance he will have of his visit to Dover is the fact that he visited the State where his father served as a slave. The same can not be said of Mrs. Terrell, whose husband is a municipal judge in Washington, receiving that appointment from ex-President Taft, who, if our memory serves us rightly, was a Republican President. Mrs. Mary C. Terrell addressed a meeting of voters at the Temple Theatre in Dover last week. During the meeting Mrs. Terrell spoke very largely on the subject of the oppression that the colored race is receiving at the hands of the white people. She waxed very warm on the subject and with much waving of arms reminded her hearers that the Democratic party controlled the solid South and were responsible for slavery, the Ku Klux Klan and numerous other institutions. She urged her hearers to support Mr. Harding, which we believe was wasted energy, as surely Leader Rakes has already attended to that minor piece of business, because Mr. Harding made a promise to the colored race and she was willing to rely on that promise. That this so-called oppression has laid very heavily upon Mrs. Terrell's mind is very evident, as she probably came to town with this matter lying as a chip upon her shoulder. As soon as she arrived in the Dover Depot she attempted to find Fellow-worker Rakes' number in the telephone book and demanded that the clerk at the ticket window find it for her. The clerk was unable to comply with this request, as he was waiting on passengers at his window, and suggested that she look again or call information. This evidently knocked off said chip and enraged the woman, as she started a tirade of abusive language upon the clerk, with the result that Agent Howard West interfered and suggested that the information she sought could be found in the telephone booth and asked her to give the waiting passengers a chance to purchase their tickets. This served to increase the woman's rage, and, finding that talking to her was useless and that traffic was being interfered with, Mr. West went to his telephone and called the police department. Finally Mrs. Terrell is supposed to have gone to the booth and asked information for the desired number and after creating a little more disturbance, left the depot. Mr. West was notified by the police department to have a warrant issued for Mrs. Terrell's arrest on a charge of disorderly conduct, which he did on Wednesday evening, before Squire W. D. Burton. The warrant was handed to Chief of Police Lane, who called at the theatre for Mrs. Terrell. Chairman Raikes informed the chief that he would bring Mrs. Terrell to the squire's office immediately after the speech that was then in progress. Raikes later appeared at the squire's office and asked that the trial be held on Thursday morning at 10:30, which request was complied with by the squire. On Thursday morning J. Hall Anderson, attorney for the woman, requested another half hour, which was also granted by the squire. In the meantime an effort was made by the attorney to have Mr. West withdraw the charge. This Mr. West refused to do, as the matter was in the hands of the police. Finally the woman was brought before the squire, where Mr. Anderson requested a continuance of the case for two weeks, which Squire Burton granted. Bond was fixed at $200, and it was immediately furnished by Harry Berman, who has been prominently connected with the movement for the uplift of the colored race in Republican politics. The following is the official report made by Mr. West on the matter to the railroad company: "Case of Mrs. Mary Church Terrell. "Charged with disorderly conduct for appearing in a public waiting room of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, at Dover, Del., and acting in a very disorderly manner before the ticket window; by interfering with business and passenger traffic at the ticket window; annoying and disturbing passengers waiting in the public waiting room with loud and abusive language; refusing to leave the ticket window when requested to do so by person in charge; refusing to leave ticket window when ordered to do so by person in charge, being told that she was acting in a very disorderly manner and making herself a public nuisance by interfering with passenger traffic at the ticket window, all of this being absolutely disregarded and all requests and orders defied by personal abuse to the office force; emotional exhibition of abuse and disrespect by shaking fist at myself and clerk through the office window, stating that she would tell 'General DuPont' how she was being treated. Some of the remarks made were that I was 'A low-down coward,' no part of a gentleman didn't know how to treat people, etc. "All of this, much to the annoyance and embarrassment of passengers in the public waiting room, one passenger, an attorney at law, expressing the opinion that this woman should be arrested for disorderly conuct. "All of this without provocation, the except being taken by this woman having been that we did not suspend business to look up a telephone number for her, but we did direct her to look in the telephone book in the booth for the number, or to call telephone exchange and ask for information, which, I understand, she eventually did, but returned again to the ticket window and gave further abuse and expressed uncomplimentary opinions as to what she thought of those in charge of the office. "She was ordered three or four times to leave the ticket window, but each time refused, saying that no one could make her leave the window. I then went to the telephone and asked for the police department. She heard me asking and said, 'That's right; send for a policeman; I want to be arrested,' and repeatedly annoyed the office and those in the waiting room by returning to the ticket window and asking how long it would be before the policeman arrived, as she wanted to be arrested." What to Teach and How to Teach It—Our Boys and Girls—Not Well to Know Too Much. By James E. Gregg, Principal of Hampton Institute. Hampton, Va., October 25.—While not losing sight of symmetry and completeness in our educational efforts, we ought to be always sure that we are seeking thoroughness as the first and fundamental thing. Unless the groundwork is laid, and carefully and solidly and permanently laid, there can be no security for the superstructure, no confidence in the final result. This principle is evident, as soon as it is stated; yet, how constantly, how flagrantly, how ridiculously it is disregarded all over our land, from the kindergarten to the graduate school of the university. The inability of the ordinary college graduate to write English compactly, simply and expressively or even to speak it in a clear, orderly, unpretentious fashion, not resorting to the slang of Broadway to gain his effect, is everywhere recognized and laughed at or deplored, according to the mood of the observer. Spelling is so much of a lost art that there is little shame attached to the disregard of it; and many people who consider themselves educated speak of the inability to spell as if it were like color-blindness or an unmusical ear, only commoner. One frequently hears stories of the helplessness of high school and college students when confronted with an exercise in the computation of simple interest; and everybody knows that the number of those who go through algebra and geometry and really master the principles—see the idea—of what they are studying, is pathetically small. Similar observations might be made about geography, history and the natural sciences. Now, my argument is like the well-worn saying of Josh Billings, who in his boyhood attended the church of which I was once pastor, that "it is better not to know so much than to know so much that aint so." I should say that it is better not to learn so much than to learn so much that isn't learned. Let us be content with a few essential things entirely grasped, really mastered, understood through and through, and permanently ready for use, if the alternative is a heterogeneous trash pile of knowledge, consisting of subjects about which the student has read or heard more or less or to which he has given so many hours per week for so many semesters, but which he is far from having made his own intellectual property. All of us must realize how strong the temptation is to be hasty and superficial in our teaching, and consequently to make our pupils hasty and superficial in their thinking. When we are framing the curricula we do like to have them look well on paper; we compare our catalogue with those of other institutions, and it irritates us to feel that we are making an inferior showing on the printed page. Those of us who are teaching classes know that we are expected to "cover so much ground" during the year, and we make the class do it somehow or other, though their occupation of the field in question may be after the manner of the tramp asleep against a haystack rather than that of an energetic plewman. To "cover" a subject does not mean to lie down on it; but to dig it up. In all our school work let us be honest from the ground up. Let us give our pupils what they ought to have to fit them for life. It is our business to make of boys and girls the right kind of men and women. We may well follow the desire of Squire Brown, who, in sending Tom to Rugby, said: "If he'll only turn out a brave, helpful, truth-telling Englishman and a Christian, that's all I want." We want to make of our boys brave, truth-telling, American Christians. We should give them intellectual assurance and power. We should have them learn thoroughly what is learned. When Cox Ignored Grave of Frederick Douglass on His Visit to Mt. Hope-Indignation of Colored Voters Voiced by John W. Thompson, Their Authorized Spokesman. (From the Rochester, N. Y., Post-Express, October 19.) Democratic politicians of Rochester, who thought they were making political capital in having Candidate James M. Cox place a wreath on the grave of Susan B. Anthony after his meeting here yesterday, seem more likely to have been guilty of a serious blunder. Not far from the grave of the great suffragist is the grave of Frederick Douglass; the most eminent man of the colored race produced in this country. No wreath was placed upon the grave of Douglass. No honor was paid the great leader of a race. The memory of Douglass is revered by colored men throughout the world. He was the friend of Lincoln, and it was due to his urging and insistence that the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. He organized the Fifty-fourth and Fifty-fifth Massachusetts regiments of colored soldiers for the Civil War, and his son was the first colored man in Rochester to enlist. He was a great orator, marshal of the District of Columbia, recorder of deeds in the District, minister to Haiti and secretary of the San Domingo mission. At his death, the State Assembly adjourned in honor of his memory. His body lay in state in this city, where a monument has been erected to his memory. Views of a Leader. John W. Thompson, regarded as the leader of the race in Rochester and chairman of the committee that raised the funds for the erection of the monument, said this morning: "The colored people of Rochester feel keenly the slight of Governor Cox to the memory of Frederick Douglass, whose remains also rest in Mt. Hope, when he laid a wreath on the grave of our beloved Susan B. Anthony, whose memory deserves all that can be given, but not as a Democratic vote-getter. "The failure of Governor Cox to place a wreath on the grave of Frederick Douglass was in keeping with the attitude of the Democratic party toward the colored people since 1856. Reason Is Apparent. "Of course, the reason for Governor Cox being drawn into this supposed act of reverence to the memory of Miss Anthony is only too apparent, but the colored people of Rochester and of the country can not help but feel that it is a slight to the memory of Douglass—a slight which will be resented by every colored person on election day." Mr. Thompson is chairman of the executive committee of the New York State Republican Council, which represents 300,000 men and women voters in New York State alone. The Voters' League of Fairmount Heights, Prince George's county, Md., held a big mass meeting Saturday night, October 23, in the public hall, the league's headquarters. The members were out with their friends, expecting to hear and see Senator France, but our good and great Senator was sent out of the State on Friday and could not be with us. Senator France knows where the large number of voters stand in Prince George's county. They are for O. E. Weller and Sydney E. Mudd and on November 2 the world will know it. The meeting on Saturday night was quite a success. It was addressed by Lawyer Armond W. Scott, of the District of Columbia bar, and Mr. M. M. Harris, also an attorney of the District. The editor of the Washington Eagle, who is the vice-president of the Voters' League and chairman of the steering committee, presided over the meeting. President H. G. Burdette should receive great credit for the manner in which he is guiding the destinies of the league to success. Mr. Burdette consults the members and officers of the league before he goes to bed every night and he prays for the success of the league and the community. Our president is a Southern boy, and in him is good stuff. We call upon all loyal citizens to give us their support and pray for our success: SPECIAL NOTICE By order of the trustees of the Parcel Porters' Company, incorporated under the laws of Congress of the District of Columbia, October 30, 1919, there will be a special meeting of the stockholders November 9, 1920, for the purpose of recapitalizing.

C OCTOBER. 30, 1920: °° _ THE. KU-KLUX PARTY... The Washington Star of October 24 prints an interesting article on the recent revival in‘the South of the Ku-Klux Klan, probably with some modifications, but with the same purpose as that of forty years ago. The old Ku-Klux: Klan was the last’ expiring breath of the South’s armed rebellion against the Union, of its adhésion to the doctrine and practice of humahslavery, of ‘its defiance of the moral sense of the then Nineteenth Century. ‘ The old Ku-Klux:Klan—whose chief was Gen: N. Bedford For- rest, former horse trader and““nigger” trader and, “hero” of: Fort Pillow—formed the germ and niucléus. of the present Democratic “party of the South. Prior to the Civil War there had been a Demo- cratic party, which was national -in spirit, seope and purpose, and which had stood: for some laudable principles. But the. new Demo- cratic party that was born in the South in 1867 with the advent of the Ku-Klux Klan was a new party with an honored old name—a wolf in sheep’s clothing.’ It stood for human bondage,-free labor, terrorism, murder; fraud, chicanery—in short, indecency. In the year -1872 this Ku-Kiug party, in sheep’s clothing, sup- ported Horace*Greeley for President in an effort to defeat Gerieral Grant, then rinning for a second term. Horace Greeley was a _Mugwunmip. A mugwump may -b¢ likened unto a dog that loves his enemies and bites his frietds. President Hayes was a mug- wump. in practice, if not by profession. ‘He witlidrew the- United States soldiers‘who, had been previously kept in the South to pro- tect the colored’people from the terrorism of the Ki-Klux.’ ‘When: Cleveland first ran’ in 1884,"there was another crop of mugwumps in the North. They made Cleveland’s election possible. . This year we observe another: appearance of Northern mug- wumps-in the persons of a few “ihtellectuals” of New York and Massacliusetts who are. worried about the possibility of failure’ of the League of Nations and who are “friend of every country but their own.” . . zi i The mugwumpery of Horace Greeley was an encouragement of the Ku-Klux.party of the South to invade the North.” Greeley had run under the-name of “Liberal Republican,” and with Ku-Klux support. From that time the Ku+Klux party of the South cast aside its sheep's coat and’ mask, atid, uniting with the’ baser, element in the North, such as Tammany Hall in New York City and similar elements in’ other Northern cities, called itself the Democratic party. That is the Democratic-party of the present day. It is the Ku-Klux party, which. has adopted, or stolen) the honored name of the party of Thomas Jefferson ahd Andrew Jatkson. . 3 The pseudo-Democratic party, of the South-is the Solid South. It_is the same Ku-Klux party, which has mever changed its ‘prin: ciples, because it had no. principles,’ Like the’ leopard, it could’ -easily be distinguished by its blaok spotsy like the skunk, by fts odor. But if that party has no principles, it has-aims. *For the attain- ment of those base aims it is aided ‘aitt abetted’ by the aforessid. bad element of. the North, which has’a different though ao more} ‘worthy 4im—that of office-holding and public graft, Witness the Billions of.:dollars of public graft in the coxduet of the kate wart Thousands of “worthy Democrats” me@dg ailllignaires4. Crackers in fat jobs and in automobiles at public expense in Haiti and San Domingo!. Gredt,is “the cohesive power of public plunder.” Pofi- tics ‘make strange bed-fellows. oo E It is a curious spectacle to see a few psalm-singing Yankees and a handful of Northern intéllectuals, stich as the editors of that:once grand old weekly, the New York Independent, allying themselves with the Ku-Klux of the South'and the Tammany ilk of the North. It is another league between Master Blifel and’ Black George, the’ terms of which may be read in Fielding’s “Tom Jones.” . ' There is nothing unfitting to, witness a revival of. the Ku-Klwx Klan in the South. It is a fitting: acknowledgment, of the ‘prime spirit and aim of the Solid South, of which.the Northern wing is an| appendage and the complement. a . | How’ can any colored man vote for the Ku-Klux party? “How can any, respecting Northern white man do it? a me i COLORED BOLTERS. - . It may be that colored Republicans and other colored independ- ent voters in the State. of Maryland may have grievanees, but at. this time, the miost critical in the ‘history of colored Americans, it is necessary that Republican Senators and members. of tffe House of Represéntatives should be elected.” : . -Disgruntled colored candidates who are running for the Senate andthe House of Representatives should withdraw their candidacy and throw their votes to those who have a certainty of being elected. In the State of Maryland there is an independent colored candidate running against Mr. Weller, who stands a show of being electetl; and Mr. Hawkins is a disgruntled -politician who has been diawing the’color-line and appealing to the colored people to vote for’ him _because he-is a colored man. The time'has conie for.the colored people in the State.of Matyland to support candidates who have merit and have done something forthe party to which they have been identified: and have received the regular nomination. Mr. Hawkins is a bolter from his party. He: has a personal grievance, and -to, appease that grievance he bolts his party and appeals to the colored:voters in his State to support him. °° : . The Bee takes this ‘opportunity to ‘put a few questions t the. colored candidate for the Senate: : . : First: What party made it possible for Mr. Hawkins to breathe eg ee ee eS a Second: What: party is’responsible for ‘Segregation, discrimina- tion and the “jim-crow” car laws in mariy of the States today? Third: What-party is disfranching dolored ‘Americans—men and women—in the States it controls? “a, . - Fourth: What party made it possible for free public school: for millions of colored children? tebe s Fifth: What party-is responsible for the insults that are offered to. our women in Street cars in Democratic States’ and steam cars running through those States? a: «Sixth: What: party is it that violates the Constitution of the United States and repudiates the. Nineteenth Amendment? The ‘excellent letter of Col. Phil Brown in this week’s issue of The’ Bee. tells the. desperatioit: of the Democratic party and the dilemma in which that party is in-today.. The pretext of that party is that cofored men and women want social equality. This declaration The Bee denies. All the colored Americans ask is—let them alone and protect their property rights, their civil and. political liberty, a fair trial by a jury, and if that jury renders a verdict of guilty, after a fair-trial, to. carry, such’a verdict into execution. : . Let no‘colored voter be deceived.by men who have personal ‘grievances. The Bee will not appeal to, the-sympathies of the col- ored voters in the State of Maryland: and the State of Virginia, but to their comnion sense and the record of the Republican party in comparison to the outrageous. record the Democratic party has. miade, and is making, prior to.and subsequerit to reconstruction. This is the admofition of The Bee to the colored voters of Mary- land and Virginia, and everywhere colored Republican bolters exist. MRS. MARY CHURCH TERRELL. The arrest of.

Church is in a very good condition and only wants more in numbers to make it one big factor in the church. It is hoped that the membership will be increased to a very large class. Rev. M. W. Traverse, pastor in charge, preached a very powerful sermon to the ever-eager congregation that always comes out on Sunday to hear him. Mr. Philip Diggs, past officer of Charles Summer Commandery, No. 9, was the guest of the church. He spoke to the congregation, and his remarks were enjoyed very much. Among the many things he said was the fact that in 1866 he had the pleasure of visiting the church and hearing one of the first pastors preach, in person of Rev. Andrew Wheeler. Mr. Diggs gave some good history of the church.

PRESIDENT JAMES E. SHEPARD, DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA --- PUBLIC MEN AND THINGS. Henry Lincoln Johnson, some time ago, had his press agent send out a blood-curdling story about his intended trip to Georgia, where he would speak—tell the baldface facts, remove collar and halter and blow the white folks down there to a fare-youwell. We suggested at the time that he overlooked the small matter of announcing the date for that proposed speech. Fact is, we knew it never would be delivered. Link knew that himself. But some newspapers carried it with a 4-inch headline. It has been pretty generally current around Senator Harding's front porch at Marion that those ambidextrous gentlemen of color who, as forming Link Johnson's "strategy board," have been sticking close to the Chicago headquarters, at so much per week, will not have a peek in when the plums are being distributed. At Marion they seem to think that the $9,000 Link got from the Lowden folk, plus his compensation for attitudinizing as head of a jim-crow bureau, ought to be sufficient reward for him. Charley Cottrill, they think, after rioting away thirty-five years of his precious life holding and seeking office, should now be willing to retire. If he does not apply for retirement, so far as Harding is concerned, he is already retired. Perry Howard, rumor says, would not be averse to accepting the office of Recorder of Deeds or Register of the Treasury, but it comes pretty straight that no colored man will secure the former job, and the latter, a sinecure, may be abolished. A preconvention promise makes Fred D. Patterson, buggy manufacturer at Greenfield, Ohio, who threw his race down at the last minute by withdrawing from the race for delegate-at-large to help out Harry Daugherty, Harding's pre-convention manager, a liability for Harding, and Fred, if he wants an office, will be the only one selected from Ohio. That's straight. If any "below the Mason and Dixon line" colored "gemin" is called, you may rest assured that Eugene P. Booze, who functions down in Mound Bayou, Miss., will be consulted, for Senator Harding has an exalted opinion of that Mound Bayou merchant and capitalist. By all the rules of the game, Fred Patterson is entitled to some reward and ought to have it. He retired from the race as delegate-at-large to please both Harding and Daugherty, and to help Daugherty. He threw his race down in so doing, and any man who performs as he did is entitled to reward. Thus, while Charles A. Cottrill has been drawing down so much per week attitudinizing around the Auditorium Hotel, Chicago, while aspiring and perspiring to land another political job, he had better take note of Fred D. Patterson, who rendered Harding and Daugherty a service when to do meant oblivion for him.

TERM OPENS SEPTEMBER 21, 1920 For further information and Catalog, address JAMES E. SHEPARD, DURHAM, NORTH For further information and Catalog, address In no national campaign since Hector was a pup has the colored man cut so little ice as in the present campaign, now happily drawing to a close. In other days we have had suspicions of segregation—separate bureaus—but never were they so separate and so segregated as the one over which Henry Lincoln Johnson, the leisure-loving gentleman from Georgia, presides. When Link was selected, it was not anticipated that he would inject an over-sufficiency of pep into the campaign; and it was naturally suspected that he would surround himself with a lot of "itching-palm" gentlemen, who spend all their waking hours aspiring and perspiring for political office. But it really was anticipated they would be allowed to function just a trifle as evidence that they were earning the stipends paid them weekly. But, alas and alack, neither the eminent leisurists at the Chicago headquarters or the colored men in New York have been allowed to function; they have merely attitudinized. Last Wednesday evening Prof. John Hawkins left word with the night clerk that the fighting editor of the Richmond. Planet, John Mitchell, Jr., was wanted in the dining room below at a smoker. He was upstairs in his cozy, bed at the time, and when the guests assembled for the smoker, John was still in his bed; but Nature called him downstairs to consult the night clerk, and still no message was given to him. He never received the invitation on account of the dereliction of the night clerk, and at 1 a.m. the guests repaired to, their homes and left John in his cozy bed, and he knew nothing about it until the next morning. Speaking of that smoker, the best speeches of the evening were made by John Lewis, Dr. Board and S. H. Dudley. These gentlemen expounded some wholesome facts. I have come to the conclusion that too many alleged corporations are springing up. Some of them must fail. The latest corporation is the Housing Corporation, with shares selling at $12.50. I would suggest to the people in this city to go slow and not bite or nibble at every bait that is advertised. There are too many of these wildcat corporations springing up in this city.

PARKER uses this table in his office in treating the spine and nerves. It is something entirely new and wonderful in construction. Its "universal joint" conforms with the principles of anatomy and physiology of the spinal joints and is remarkably adapted to manipulative treatment of the human spine. When it is remembered that the spine is the "backbone" of the body and contains the spinal cord, which gives off nerves to all organs and parts of the body, it will readily be understood that health and strength depend largely on the condition of the spine and spinal cord. Strain, weakness, irregular or abnormal condition of any region of the spine will affect the spinal cord, thus causing troubles in the organs which get their nerve supply from that section of the cord, be it the heart, lungs, stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels, uterus, bladder, or any other organs. Osteopathic treatment corrects the spinal troubles, releases the cord and nerves, regulates the circulation, strengthens the organs, and Nature does the rest. Dr. Parker pays special attention to cases of female troubles and troubles of the eyes. LEO S. OSMAN, Old Indian Herb Remedy Shop 1728 Seventh Street N. W. Store open now every day.

This was followed almost immediately bya touchdown, by -How- ard.
