Harmony Club" to Spread Happiness

This seems to be very large quar-

deliver the goods.
Others have sought to show how to
be happy though married, or within
other narrow limitations, but the Har-
mony club will dispense happiness by
mail to those of any and all condi-
lions. Already, as it modestly an.
nounces, it has started "a great wave
of cheer-philosophy sweeping around
the globe"
Oddly enough, the president of the
club is lawyer, e. H. Fallows, son
of Bishop Fallows of Chicago, who has
become prominent in connection with

But for some reason or other the

constitutional; it was built on prac-

SEIE-ELEVATION

The New York Times claims that
Negroes are lacking in capacity for
self-elevation, and cites Hayti, Libe-
ria and the Southern black belts as
illustrations of the correctness of it's
opinion.
Now, we do not know that there is
really any such thing in existence as
self-elevation-the wisest man has
been made such by the cooperation of
thousands of other people as we'll as
by other things, but the South affords
thousands of instances of Afro-Ameri-
cans who have risen very greatly
above the general level of the black
belts.
The Afro-American has become the
owner Of vast amount of property
in the South. He owns farms, dwell
ings: books, pianos, automobiles; he
conducts banks, insurance companies
aaG neWspapers: he practices law,
medicine and divinity. and has pro-
duced authors whose contributions
appear in the highest grade of Ameri-
can magazines.
The paintings of Tanner are "hon-
ored' by the Paris Salon and several
purchased by the French government;
the musical compositions of Cole
ridge Taylor are much in vogue in
the best society; and the Filipino
band, trained. and led by an Afro
American, recently entertained the
elite of the capital of the United
States. It seems to THE APPEAL.
that the persons mentioned are not
lacking in capacity for self-elevation.
But looking at conditions in various
countries what do we see? What is
the condition of the Jews in Russia

in Great Britain-the Poles in their
own land? Very much like that of

THE TITANIC STRUGGLE AGAINST
WHITE SUPREMACY.

Among the most interesting litera-
ture to be found in the great dailies
are the letters Of such iglobe-trotters
as Mr.. Frederick J.. Haskin, who is
gathering much important informa-
ton as to doings all over the world.
In recent letter Mr.. Haskin says:
'In 1908, last year, 1.-The immigra-
ton into the Amur, according to Off
cial Russian figures, was more than
100000, and the total for this year is
expected to be 100000. This means
that in less than four. years Russia
has placed almost 100000 settlers in
these undeveloped provinces, and the
work is proceeding at such a rate that
ten years will find 100000 Russians
domiciled here. That means that Rus
sia will do in ten years more than
England has done in Australia in a
century in the matter of building up
population" .-..
The Interpretation which Mr.. Has
KIN places upon the above is as fol-
lows:
"In this triangular fight for the con-
troll OF Manchuria, thiss great empire
of the future, China has the right and
Russia and Japan have the might. A
greater Japan, a. Japan the captain of
Asia leading the titanic struggle
against white supremacy on earth,
means the doom of Russian dreams" !"
This Titanic struggle against white
supremacy" is going en all over the
world. The white man has, hereto
fore maintained his supremacy by his
superior intelligence and organization:
but the -Asiatic nations are rapidly ap-
proximating to his standard. japan
has an army and navy at least equal
! to those of many Of the white nations
and as capable officers and statesmen
as any of them. The future is full of
promise for Asiatic races.

AN IMPORTANT CONCLUSION.

The American Association of Din
ing Car S1lperintendents was recent
ly in session in Chicago, and among
its conclusions was one of great in
terest to the Afro-American. Among
the prominent members was Superin-
tendent of the Illinois Central, Mr..
Dow, who declared:
THE question of substituting women
walters for Afro-Americans had been
taken up at former meetings of the
association, but it was decided that
women would be unable to do the
work satisfactorily. The Lake Shore
road and others employed white men
instead of Afro-Americans, for a while,
but all returned to the original sys-
tem.''
The Appeal., 1909-11-20

What the Jewish question in other
countries is may be inferred from the
recent anti.Jewish riots at Kieff, Rus
sla, which began on the Jewish new
year, and continued for three days.
More than so Jews were killed, $50
were seriously injured, and more than
1000 severely hurt. The rioters COL
lected a number of Jewish women and
girls, stripped them naked, and drove
them through the streets, the onlook-
ers jeering and splitting at them.
And what the Jewish question is
right in the capital of the United
States may be inferred from a. recent
occurrence, of which THE APPEAL
shall give some account as follows:
In Washington there are a number
OF finishing schools" for females of
the most exclusive and aristocratic
character. Recently Rabbi Simon
made the discovery that Jewish fe-
males of great wealth and culture
were received with great reluctance
at these schools and in very small
numbers, and also learned that the
managers Of the schools were virtual
ly forced to prescribe the Jewish girls
on account of the prejudice of the
parents of the other girls. To admit
Jewish girls in large numbers would,
they thought, result in a loss of the
patronage upon which the schools
mainly depended. The Washington
Herald refers to the facts brought to
light by Rabbi Simon as "amazing and
deplorable" and that is certainly so.
THE APPEAL can mention another
fact which seems no less "amazing
and deplorable," which is that a very
distinguished member of the pro-
scribed race, Senator Rayner, of
Maryland, is making himself ridicu-
lously conspicuous in his efforts to in
fllct prescription upon another race,
OF so damning a character as to make
the Washington episode a mere triv-
ialty. In other words, Senator Ray
ner is actually supporting the devilish
to disfranchise all the
of Maryland and
thereby justifying the action of the

Like the Afro-American, the Jew is
the object of most unreasonable and
bitter prejudice, and his case presents
the striking pecularity that color is
not the cause of the prejudice, for the
Jew is of the same color as his perse

1t is, however, a fact recognized and
acknowledged by very prominent
members of the race that such pref
udice does exist and manifest itself in
ways that are very detrimental and
'disagreeable to members of the race.
