HOMEMADE PHILOSOPHY.

Wen we begin too lock up the big
thieves the little wuns will have no
pace-nakers.
The Trust Is bully feller so long
az he robs the other chap. That's
Wot we awl say.
Sum men are too onest too git put
IN Jail, and sum too slick at stealth too
ever git cot at it.
S1v1lize the heather, and make him
pay sumboddy for his grave wen he.
die, or git put in the potters field.
To often them that preech the Sc
verest sermon to the little rougues,
bow and skrape and truckle to the big
raskals.
A man may say a good many hard
things erbout Trusts, but wen thay
say, Throw up yoore hands, wy up
! thay goze.
1t IL SO mulch eezier to drift with
the crowd than to oppoze it; but if the
drlftin crowd gifts damned, 700 git the
same dose. @
& Beware Ov the blind enthuseeazzum
ov the deluded common peepul. Thay
are jist as patriotick wen they are
rong, az Wen thay are right.
II a. man wont wurk he haz no rite
to eete anything but supe. God helps
him too have no conshienshiousnes
about takin everything in sight.
No odds how crude and crooel a
name religus faith may be, he stands
with hiz sleeves rolled up and reddy to
kill the man hoo seq he haz got bet
ter one
Behind the oppreshun and tyranny
ov every grindin trust and monopoly,
thare IL a law too leagalize thare in
yoomanity. Change the law before 700
set up a howl
Truth in thinkin il no more than a
wider range ov mental sight. 1t IL but
yooman and mortal. We don't think
right today, becaws we ar only about
half developed.

Our attention has been called to the
fact that Mckinley commissioned 1893
during the late war. This
was a case of had to, when the men
would not enlist except under Afro-Amer-
lean officers. He did not commission any
since the war for the regular army that
we know of, because he did not have to.
The most notable organizations of Afro
Americans will meet in Chicago next
week, viz: The National Association Of
Women, which will bring together the
most prominent women and the national
council which will bring together the
most prominent men of the United States.
The gathering Of these notables will un-
doubtedly be the largest in the history
of the United States and it is hoped Will
be productive of more good than of any
other meetings held. May God in His
wisdom guide them Alright.

Miss Lillian Clayton Jewett, of the
Hub has started a crusade against
lynching which will bring the subject be-
fore the people of the North in way
that must impress them. She has sone
to South Carolina and succeeded in bring
inc away all the members of the MUIR
dered postmasters family and is taxing
them about the country holding meetings
and talking on lynching. This Ear her
meetings to which small admission fee
is charged have been a great success. The
money raised from her labors is to be
used to put down lynching. Miss JeWett
is twenty-four years Of age rather above
the medium height, and of very mag
netic, attractive ways, and is known in
Boston as the new Harriet Beecher
Stowe. = -.

More than half a dozen "plebes'' VINO
entered the military academy in June
have been forced to resign on account of
barbarous methods of hazing in vogue in
that institution, and several others are
seriously thinking of doing 50. One
''plebis'' had his jaw broken and another
is on crutches as a result of hazing. It
is not to be wondered at that this gov
eminent cannot find a way to stop lynch
ing in the South when it cannot stop it in
a mild form in it's own institutions.

Ills said by some who doubtless wish
it was so-that the Afro-American is
dying out, but don't believe it. Only few
days ago Mrs. George Hatchett, of
Brownsville, Pa, broke the record by
giving birth to six girls and one boy.
True, two Of the girls and the boy died
in few hours, but the remaining quar-
tette of girls are alive and kicking.
Doesn't that seem to prove that we are
not dying out so fast? zS=sss Ia 9

The success of The Appeal is remark
able. 2
From small beginning it has in four
teen years taken its place, at the head of
the procession Appeal is the lead
ing Afro-American newspaper publish
ed and has the largest circulation of any
paper of it's class
More than thirty attempts have been
made to publish Afro American papers
in Chicago since the advent of The APP
peal, but all have failed. There is but
one other Afro-American paper publish
ed in the city. E
The Appeal has succeeded because it
is the peoples paper. It is not publish
ed in the interest OF any particular clan
or clique, but is the organ Of all Afro
Americans.
The Appeal has never claimed to be an
illustrated paper, yet as a matter Of alb
solute fact, it has every week, for years,
printed more illustrations than any so
called illustrated Afro-American paper
IN the country.

view against John Gaffey, that if sub
scriber desires to have paper discon-

the publisher the amount he owes for

The evidence in the case brought forth
the facts that Gaffey subscribed and paid

he continued to accept it after his SUBJ
