AN APPEAL 10 THE COUNTRY.
Address Dealing With the Race Question Is
sued By Negro Press Association
(By the Associated Pr

(By the Associated Prcss.)
Louisville, KY, June 29-At the annual
session of the Afro American Press Asso-
citation, held here today, a strong ad
dress dealing with the race question was
unanimously adopted for issuance to the
country at large. The address calls o.
the people to enforce the principles OF
good government in 1.-The present crisis in
the history OF the Afro-American people
when systematic and thoroughly organ
lied movement, begun in 1868, is working
with malicious and malignant energy to
utterly destroy the civil and political
rights of those for whom we stand IN
some part as spokesman.
I'VE resent the reiterated stStemen,
that this Is white mans country 1t
was made in its inception and develop
ment by all of its people irrespective Of
race and the Federal Constitution specfi
cally places all of its citizens on equalitJ
before the law.
''The persistent effort which has beer
made and in being made to nullify tho
suffrage guarantees of the fourteenth and
fifteenth amendments to the Federal Con-
stitution if fraught with as much danger
to the peace and security of the Fedora
Union as was the effort to hitch slavery
upon the Constitution of the country prior
to 1860 We again direct attention to the
effect produced by the license of the mob
spirit. We do this because it has become
national problem with which the ne ton
in its public opinion and its laws must
deal or ultimately go down to ruin in
the mad overflow of anarchistic passion
and fury. 1t is a national problems IN
which we have only coordinate intereFt.
The address closes with an endorsement
of President Rooseyelt's attitude on ihis
and other questions affecting public mo
rality.
The meeting was presided over by Cyrus
Field Adams, Assistant Register OF the
Treasury, who was elected.
The National Afro4American Council
will meet in Louisville Wednesday. From
800 to 500 negro leaders will be in at
tendance. Booker Washington is expected
to attend and make an address.

Kumalae offered a resolution that the
Board of Health regulations be sub
mitted forthwith for revision and that
a committee of three be appointed to
go over them. Humalae proceeded to
attack the present rules which he said
imposed a hardship on poor people.
Agents of the Board are going from
place to place now" he said, "and en-.
forcing rules upon poor people which
they cannot carry out without losing
their homes. Yesterday an official of
the Board told me an old lady wanted
to see me. She told me that she would
have to dig cesspools and make con-
nections that would cost her $500 and
that the Boards agent had stated that
if she could not do it the best thing for
her was to sell her home. There are
others who are treated likewise These
officials want to get her land for less
than she wants to sell and they are try
ing to force her to sell out 1t is time
for us to adjust these matters and see
that proper regulations are made for
the poor people.
MANY agents have been going round
and forcing people to put up silence
money. One called on me and tod me
to make some changes. He did not
know | was a representative, out when
refused, ana ne IOund out L was, 1e
dropped the matter. / told him that if
I had violated any law to let the law
take it's course. These officials are 60
ing around among the poor threatening
them with the loss of their homes"
Harris thought action was premature
before the appointment of committees
and proposed to refer the matter to the
proper standing committee about to be
appointed.
Kumalae's motion finally prevailed
and Speaker Beckley appointed Kuma-
lac, Gandall and Damien to constitute
the committee called for by Kumalae.
Kupihea offered a resolution to send
for a list of all the public lands of the
territory which are held by corpora
tons The House voted to refer the
matter to the, regular committee on
land matters, when such committee
should have been named.
w. W. Harris gave notice of in
tention to introduce an act for the pro-
lection of life and property from steam
boilers and engines and to provide for
the examination and licensing of engi-
neers; an act to provide for the regis
tering and confirmation of land titles,
and an act to regulate the erection, al
teration and repair of buildings in the
Territory.
