The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1913-11-29

Itsseems that the fate of the Titanic
passengers who were lost through in
adequate life-saving apparatus has not
had sufficient effect upon the law max
ers and the executives of the law to
cause them to safeguard human lives.
The terrible disaster of the Volturno
ought to start afresh methods to pro-
5tect sea-going passengers. Af1idavits
have been made by survivors of that
'.hel ship" stating that many Of the
officers and crew were drunk, life
boats were rotten, life preservers also
rotten and not supplied with proper
straps, life boat chains rusty and could
not be lowered from the davits, etc.
More stringent laws should be made
for the safeguarding of human lives.

The ONLY SOLUTION.

81 . y F. \
Recently at the Church of England
Congress at Southampton, Sir Sidney
Olivier, who was governor Of Jamaica
from 1907 to the end Of 1912. put for
ward the claim that no solution of the
American color question was possible
except by resolute disclaimer of the
color line and the race differention
theory.
Sir Sidney Olivier certainly knows
what he is talking about. In the
Island Of Jamaica, where he was gov
ernor for five years, there are about
100000 colored people and only 10000
whites and yet there is absolutely no
friction between the races. Jamaica
is a British colony and the govern
ment is just. Colored men enjoy ev-
cry civil and political right which white
men have and there is no color line.
Among other things Sir Sidney said:
MY study and comparison of con-
ditions in the United States and the
West indies" he said, "has brought
me to that conclusion. American and
colonial politicians and public men are
not Exeter Hall abolitionists nor
evangelical Christian missionaries. /
do not expect them to adopt the meth.
DDS of missionaries, nor do I sympa.
thize with all their programmes. But
1t cannot be ignored that it happened
that the faiths Of the men who laid
the foundations for the peaceful de.
yelopment of the mixed community in
Jamaica were democratic and human
itarian and, above all, uncompromis-
ingly Christian.
Were race differentiation held to it
must increase civil discord. When the
balance of numbers is as it is in the
South in America it must tend to
foster obscure preparations for civil
war and rebellion. If statesmen and
citizens face in the contrary direction
l do not say that they will attain i'm
mediately civil peace, but I am conf
dent that they will be travelling the
only road toward it.
Il do not suggest that race does not
greatly affect facilities for combina-
ton between humans in healthy
national life, but race difference is
only one of many schismatic agencies.
The solution of the difficulty involves
discipline for the white man as well
as the black

MoHAMMEDANIsM SPREADING.


A Berlin correspondent writes that
Accommodation is gaining more
proselytes than is Christianity, among
! the natives of the African colonies and
| tribes that once protested the latter
are now relapsing into the former.
The result is the most natural thing
in the world.
The missionary is stuffed full of
color prejudice, he accepts his calling
because it is the best job in sight, and
he cares nothing for the native, but
holds him in utter contempt as mig
ger
The native in short time learns
to care nothing for the missionary,
because he discovers that he is a
hypocrite and fraud. He repays his
contempt in kind.
A man who is saturated with Amer
lean race prejudice is a very poor
specimen Of Christianity and is not
needed by the natives.

BRAVE BISHOP WALTERS.

Bishop Alexander Walters of the A.
M. E. q. church, a prominent Afro
American leader in the Democratic
party, in an open letter fatty denies
that he ever endorsed segregation in
any shape or form.
He says that the statement that he
favored an all-colored Register of the
Treasury Office is absolutely false.
And he tells his defamers to write to
Secretary McAdoo and ask him about
the matter.
The last paragraph in his statement
is strong:
Il say once and for all that / have
never endorsed segregation in any de-
partment and never will. Do you
thing have lost my senses and my
interest in my race? would die be-
fore would betray my race -
That's the right sort of talk. Now

who have been charged with endors.

The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1913-11-29

The Detroit Informer comes out in
defense of President Wilson and
thinks that the Anti-Segregation Dele
cation which presented a monster
petition bearing the signatures of TO-
coo Afro-Americans acted hastily.
The Informer further says that
there 'are other questions of more
Importance pending engrossing his
lthe President's) attention than the
appointment of members of the race
to Office"
THE APPEAL believes that it is al
ways right to protest against wrong
and injustice and the time to protest
is when the wrongs and injustices are
Icing perpetrated. The President is
the head of the Nation and he does
not need the assistance of single per-
ION to stop segregation. It would not
matter If every member of Congress
objected to his decision, single word
from him would stop it instantly.
THE APPEAL has read the petit
ton, Mr.. Trotter's speech as chairman
of the delegation, and all the matter
pertaining to the petition and there is
not one word about the appointment
of Afro-Americans to Office. The OBJ
ject of the petition is to end con-
dition Of affairs which is disgrace
TO country which calls itself Chris
lian democracy.
The 1nformer seems to be very
much worried about appointment to
office but that is of little consequence
in comparison to the greater question
whether caste is to be introduced into
This country and if Afro-Americans are
to be appointed to Office with the un-
derstanding that they are to segregate
their employees THE APPEAL does
not hesitate to say that a colored man
who would accept any appointment
with such conditions attached would
be lower than the vilest reptile that
orawls upon the earth.
1t is Of course proper then that
President Wilson should give the
Afro-American representation in presi-
dental offices and that matter should
Re taken up later, but the matter now
in hand is segregation and that is the
matter to be handled first.
