WISCONSIN WEEKLY BLADE VOL. III. Case Takes Peculiar Turn — Attorney General's Opinion Solicited. (Special to the Blade.) Beloit.—The case of Frank Saledino, the young Italian charged with a brutal and most unusual assault upon little Leymore Johnson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Johnson of Emerson St., is not yet, as was supposed, closed. Attorney DeReef, of Milwaukee, who was brought here to prevent, if possible, a miscarriage of justice, has succeeded in raising in the minds of the Judge and District Attorney, doubts of the regularity of the proceedings previously held. As a result both the Judge and District Attorney have submitted questions to the Attorney General for his opinion. This case is of deep interest to the colored people because the little victim is colored and the accused is white, and it seems impossible to convict. Because of the child's youth she was deemed too young to understand an oath and therefore could not tell of the abuse to which she was subjected. There was no attempt, however, to use the confession made by the accused to the police and now in the possession of the District Attorney. The opinion of the Attorney General is being awaited with interest. THE RIGHTS OF THE BLACK MAN (From the "Thoughts of Our Readers" Column in the Milwaukee Journal.) To the Editor of The Journal: We most heartily commend your editorial under the caption Be "White" to Them. Our regret is that The Journal is a little late in this announcing its championship of our black citizens. During the long half century since the black man's emancipation from the auction block as a mere chattel, he has been under a social and political ban shockingly outrageous to him as a man and brutally unworthy of us as a democratic nation. A hundred and fifty thousand black soldier boys are on the firing line in France, stopping the German bullets with their bodies, to save America's cause. What a return-those black boys are making to this nation in view of East St. Louis and Houston and the death of 5,000 of their race besides, victims of fire and bullets at the hands of lawless and unpunished mobs! How can we preach equal justice and democracy, making it the basis and keynote of our share in the world war, while still tolerating these awful crimes under the miserable subterfuge that the national government is powerless to protect the lives of citizens in the several states? Keep up the outcry against this dreadful condition until all men shall hear, though it trouble this nation of Lincoln and Washington, as the land of Israel was troubled by the cries of Elijah, or until this hideous crime of mob murder of a subject race, unhindered by local law or public sentiment, shall cease. C. H. COOK. Mondovi, Wis., Oct. 17, 1918 COLORED WOMAN MAKES FIGHT FOR SEAT IN SENATE (Special to the Blade.)

Presto, 1818 Thirtieth avenue, who has launched a vigorous fight for a seat in the senate. Mrs. Presto is the first woman of our race in this country to seek such honors.

NEW FINANCIAL SECRETARY FOR EASTER LILLY CLUB Mrs. Mary Harsh, 2963 Federal St. Chicago, Secretary. Mrs. Mary Harsh, who succeeds Mrs. M. Louise Hawkins as financial secretary of the Easter Lilly Club, is widely known for her affiliation in fraternal organizations, having been an active member in lodge work for years.

GOVERNMENT Columbus, Ga.—(Special)—Julius Hart, Colored, chauffeur for Dr. Bullard, has invented three aerial bombs which promise to net him a fortune: Two have already been accepted by the government, one of them at a price of $15,000, while the price for the other has not as yet been announced. The bomb shot in different directions, one 50 times before the chief explosion comes, another 60 times and a third 1,000 times before the final discharge. Hart, who is 25 years old, is a former resident of Union Point, Ga. He got some of his ideas from Lieutenant Bentley Chappel, who told him of various ingenious bombs used on the battle front.—The Atlanta Constitution. NEGROES STICK TO THEIR JOBS Two Empoyees of Mill in Ohio Make Remarkable Records for Service Without Loss of Time. (Blade News Service) A "stand-by-the-job" record deserving of recognition has been made by Frank Harris, Negro employed by the American Rolling Mill Co. of Columbus, Ohio, who has worked every day this year except two days in January, one in February and one in June—a total of 239 days out of 243. He has been continuously employed by the company since October 1, 1904, and wears a 10-year gold service button. The four days he has taken off in 1918 have been more than made up by $7\frac{1}{4}$ days of overtime work. Albert Jones, another Negro, worked 141 consecutive days—7 days a week—without losing any time, from March 30 to August 19. He took 5 days off, beginning August 20 to go hunting, but is working every day now. These men work on the pigcasting machine, and stuck to their jobs during the hottest weather.

Mrs. Mildred Davenport, West Washington avenue, was assaulted on last Tuesday by Geo. Ireland, a storekeeper, 902 West Washington avenue. She had made a purchase, paid for same, was contradicted as to the payment and was ordered out, not moving fast enough he struck her with such force as to knock her across the sidewalk. This was indeed a brutal act. Mrs. Davenport, having no immediate protection, applied for a warrant. The brute was arraigned before Judge Hoppman, pleaded not guilty. The trial was set for Friday, the 25th, at 2:00 p. m. Editor of the Blade: Please allow me, space in your esteemed paper to commend you for the editorial in last week's paper. It is true every word of it. We do not have an equal show. I am a shoemaker by trade and have applied to almost every shoe factory here for employment, only to be refused, even where signs are hanging out "Men Wanted." In one or two places they freely admitted it was because I am colored. I am from the south and came north for what I thought would be a better opportunity. I never dreamed of such treatment in Wisconsin. Keep up your good work and let them know how little they practice democracy right here in the good old United States. Very truly, Moses Lemone. A.

TEXAS COLORED MAN INVENTS A GLASS BOMB Government Offers Inventor Five Thousand Dollars for Rights (Blade News Service) Amarillo, Texas.—Charles Stepenson, a young man of this city, has invented a glass bomb which is to be used as an underground work to assist the U. S., in winning the war. It was sent to Washington, D. C., to Secretary Baker for inspection and was a success. The Government has offered him $5,000 for the patent rights. He will not accept the offer as he hardly thinks it enough. 1,000 COLORED MEN CALLED FOR THE NAVY (Special to the Blade.) Washington, Oct.—A call for 1,000 Negro selective service men for limited military service was issued today by Provost Marshal General Crowder. They will be assigned to the navy and will be sent to Norfolk, Va., and Charleston, S. C., during the period from October 18 to 24. Twenty-five states and the District of Columbia will furnish the men under this call. 7,000 Members. NO 21. WAR CAMP COMMUNITY CLUB Rockford, Ill. Doing Great Work The Ladies of the War Camp Community Club have been kept quite busy during the Influenza epidemic administering to the sick soldiers and their troubled relatives. Dr. and Mrs. R. S. Grant, host and hostess of the club have been very patient and have worked faithful both night and day assisted by their little daughter Elizabeth. Mr. Marchel, Chicago, assisted by Mr. Eugene Ross, Memphis, Tenn., have been the embalmers for our boys dying at the Camp. Mrs. Ross and the Misses Ross, Mrs. Tucker, Mrs. Lieut, Speed, Mrs. Tucker, and others have also been on the helping hand during the epidemic. The Girls' Patriotic League and the War Camp Community Clubs are also doing their part by sending fruit to the boys at the Base Hospital, Camp Grant. Anything sent to us in this line will be highly appreciated by the boys and the Clubs. Address, Colored Soldier Club, 218 S. Main St., Rockford, Ill. SOLDIER'S LETTER Camp Lewis News. American Lake, Wash. Messrs. Edward Fraction, Clarence Peterson, Rufus Ball, Buster and J. Walter Minor, Jr., are real soldiers and expect to leave soon for oversea service. Messrs. Edward Fraction and J. Walter Minor, Jr., are keeping the boys of the 21st Co. happy with songs. Mr. Minor is meeting many of his Tuskegee school chums in camp. Having been way from Milwaukee for almost four weeks, the boys are beginning to get thirsty (sh-sh-sh). Private Fraction acted as dining room orderly for a few days. You should see the boys from Milwaukee with their uniforms on. Some pictures will appear soon, in the Weekly Blade. On our arrival at American Lake, we marched into camp singing "On Wisconsin." Write to the boys. J. Walter Minor, Jr., Volunteer Reporter for the Wisconsin Weekly Blade. 21st Co., 6th Battalion, 166 Depot Brigade, Camp Lewis, Wash. SOUTHERN COLORED LEARNING THRIFT At a meeting of American Bankers' Association at Chicago, R. S. Hecht, vice-president of the Hibernia Bank and Trust Co., New Orleans, said: "Never in their history have the colored people of the south been so prosperous. The average earnings of farm hands have been doubled, while the pay of colored men in other labor has increased still more. As a result, in the delta country of the Mississippi rfom Memphis to the gulf, you will find thousands of colored men driving their own automobiles, and not Fords either, for a large part, but those of makes costing from $1,000 to $1,500. The Liberty Loan has appealed to their emotionalism, as a result I look to see the colored people more thrifty and a greater aid to the community. SHRINERS LOSE NAME Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 27.—The State Supreme Court today handed down a decision restraining for all time the order of Negro Shriners from using the name Shriners or in any way identifying itself with Shrine insignia or regalia. The decision was against an organization formed immediately after the Shriners' convention here in 1914.

OUR COLORED SOLDIERY By Sarah C. Fernandis. They're marching, marching, marching— Hear you the tramping feet On cool sequestered roadside And city's teeming street? Freedom's insistent drum beat Has swung their souls in line, And they are marching forward, Heeding her call divine. Brave hearts and clean, hard bodies— Full measure of man power— They bring to help give battle To win her triumph's hour. O, men with dusky faces; Yet hearts as true as steel, Filling your fighting places, You make a strong appeal. For a new, human jutsice That knows no color line, When Freedom's dawn triumphant Over our world! shall shine. —Southern Workman BLADELETS Never cease to contend for a man's chance. Don't stand and deplore the shortcomings of y age when you do nothing to improve them. BLADELETS Never cease to contend for a man's chance. Don't stand and deplore the shortcomings of your rage when you do nothing to improve them. That "Boudoir Cap" is, as the term implies, to be worn indoors, not on the streets, shopping. So far as we can see there is no occasion to be ashamed of your race. It is, however, full of disadvantages. You are not required to forget Autocracy at home to heed the cry of Democracy abroad. Be mindful of them both. "Every Woman Should Be Punched on the Jaw, At Least Once," says Dorothy Becker, boxing expert of San Francisco. Thanks awfully, Dorothy, for the advice. Quit making excuses for not patronizing your own merchant. Stop pretending that you can find nothing at a colored restaurant to eat. If some Negroes could get shaved in the back end of a white barber shop, their faces would never show again in a colored barber shop.—Dallas Express. The Germans have not reached the hearts of the colored men—they cannot reach them—but those of this country who have fostered and are now fostering a spirit of unrest among us, have caused the race to wonder if a German propaganda is at work among those from whom our loyalty and patriotism, by right, calls for in justice.—New York News. There is a force in united prayer and serious meditation that the Christian world believes to be beneficial to both the individual participant and to the whole social body. The men and women, by the force of whose ideas the spiritual ideals of America were largely shaped, were given to meditation and prayer. This was the outstanding trait of the Pilgrim Fathers and of their immediate successors. In the darkest hour of the American Revolution Washington went to his knees; and in the midnight of the Civil War, Lincoln prayed.—Minneapolis Journal. "Why don't you see the picture of colored soldiers in the papers some times." A well-educated lady asked the editor this question the other day. Our answer was "We see them quite frequently." "But I haven't," she responded, and I've been reading the papers carefully ever since the war began." The trouble with this dear lady was that she read the wrong papers. She read the papers which tell of lynching and burning Negroes and of the Negroes arrested, etc., but they would not dare to put the picture of a dignified Negro in their columns. But every week there are papers which tell of Negro soldiers and have their pictures. We would suggest that she subscribe for a colored paper. Christian Recorder. was reprehensible for one man is own an editorial from another is for one man to approve a purse of another. The other larceny. By whom they are just plain that seen the offense that the one fails to distinguish it the name of the original paper appropriate symbols, he is given journalism.

We had merely given an answer which we clipped it. 18, 1917, we ran an editor, the Stool Pigeon.” Later extensive issues of one paper led to the Western Messenger had run it at some time and thus misled the other paper nothing disgraceful in clip. We do so with no pain in turn are “clipped.” Nor. That is as it should exchange. But when we ought to give the credit with, under any circumstance ought as our own. Sooner discredit us all. It is just as reprehensible for one newspaper to reprint as its own editorial from another newspaper, as it is for one man to appropriate to his own use the purse of another. The one is called plagiarism; the other larceny. By whatever name you call them they are just plain thefts. And it does not lessen the offense that the offender gives it a new title and changes a few unimportant phrases. If he fails to distinguish it as a reprint by giving the name of the original paper or by the use of the appropriate symbols, he is guilty of a serious offense in journalism. Reading our exchanges recently our attention was attracted to two editorials as much alike as two postage stamps of the same denomination. One entitled "One! Two!! Three!!!" appeared in the New York News of Sept. 5, 1918; the other entitled "Vale Vardaman," appeared in the Washington Bee under date of September 14, 1918. With this difference in titles—and both of these titles appear in large capitals in the body of the editorials—and a few minor differences in phrases, such as "had done him no wrong" and "had never did him a single injury," the editorials are one and the same. The camouflage only serves to strengthen a suspicion that the failure to give credit was no oversight. Now we would be inclined to overbook this lapse—serious as it is—were it not for the fact that there is entirely too much of that sort of thing nowadays. We often slip from our exchange, sometimes just a thought, and again, a whole editorial. But we never do so without giving proper credit. Some time ago we ran an editorial because we thought it good, giving credit to one paper when we later were given good reason to know that credit was due elsewhere. We had merely given as the author the paper from which we clipped it. November 8, 1917, we ran an editorial—our own—entitled "The Stool Pigeon." Later on we saw it in four successive issues of one paper each time being credited to the Western Messenger. Perhaps the Messenger had run it at some time without giving credit and thus misled the other paper. We do not know. There is nothing disgraceful in clipping from a contemporary. We do so with no pangs of shame. And when we in turn are "clipped," we take it as a distinct honor. That is as it should be—the purpose of the exchange. But when we do, we ought to be big enough to give the credit where due. We should never, under any circumstances send forth another's thoughts as our own. Sooner or later the practice will discredit us all.

"Hello!" she heard the Kaiser's voice. "Is old man Satan home? Just tell him this is Kaiser Bill That wants him on the phone." The devil said "hello" to Bill And Bill said, "How are you? I am running here a hell on earth So tell me what to do." "What can I do?" the devil said, "My dear old Kaiser Bill, If there's anything that I can, Do to help you I sure will." The Kaiser said, "Now listen And I will try and tell The way that I am running "On earth a modern hell. "I've saved for this a many year. "I've started out to kill. "Now that will be a modern job, "You leave to Kaiser Bill. "My submarines are devils. "Why you should see them fight. "I was running things to suit myself 'Till a year or so ago, 'When a man named Woodrow Wilson 'Wrote me to go slow. 'He said to me, 'Dear William 'We don't want to make you sore, 'So be sure and tell your U-boats 'To sink our ships no more.' 'I did not listen to him, 'So he's coming after me, 'With a bunch of Negro soldiers 'From their home across the sea. 'Now, that's why I called you, Satan. "For I want advice from you. "And I knew that you would tell me. "My dear old Kaiser William, "There's not much to tell, "For the blacks will make it hot, "ter for you. "I've been a mean old devil. "But half as mean as you "And the minute that you get here, "I'll give my job to you. "I'll be ready for your coming, "And I'll have the fire all bright, "And I'll have your room all ready "When the blacks begin to fight. "Now, the Ninth and Tenth will get you. "There's nothing more to tell. "Hang up the 'pohne and get your hat, "And meet me here in hell." —As recited by—Rattle Snake Kid. AN APPEAL Leymore Johnson, a child six years of age, was recently criminally assaulted and outrageously abused by one, Frank Saladino, a young Italian. September 19th the case was called in the Municipal court and for some reason unexplained at present the accused was permitted to go and the case apparently abandoned by the authorities. It would segm that this is a fit case for the serious consideration of all believers of justice and the due administration of the law. Private counsel has been employed and money is needed to defray expenses. Now, I, as president of the Co-operative Development and Progressive Association of the State of Wisconsin, do hereby call upon every member of said association and all believers in fair play and justice to contribute to this expense as it is now impossible to say to what ends it may be necessary to go to secure the proper administration of the law in respect to this foul crime. Contributions may be sent to Miss Marie White, Secretary of the Association, at 117 North Washington St., Janesville, Wis., and she will forward a receipt for same. Wm. S.
