who has been appointed to take charge
of the local district attorneys Office
until the disposition of the indictments
against Jeff McCarn.

and clearly sets forth the duties which

in the cablegram, however, will have
nothing to DO with any investigation
involving Mr.. McCarn."
Mr.. Thomas stay in Honolulu, there
fore, is to be indefinite. He does not
know himself just how long he Is to
be here, as he has been authorized to
remain until the indictments against
the district attorney have been dis
posed of. The information regarding
the period of his residence here was
received in cablegram recently from
the attorney general to j. w. Thomp-
son, assistant district attorney, which
has been interpreted to mean that Mr..
Thomas will be in charge of the local
ozce until the McCarn matter has
been settled in both the federal and
territorial courts.
Since his arrival here from San
Francisco yesterday, Mr.. Thomas has
been busying himself with getting in
touch with the work of the district at
torney's Office. He has been furnished
with a list of the cases now pending
before the court, and this morning ex-
pressed much satisfaction regarding
the assistance which is being rendered
him by the employees and officials in
the federal building.
United States District Attorney JEFF
McCarn probably left Nashville, Tenn,
today for San Francisco if he intends
taking steamer to Honolulu from. the
coast city September 2, which will
bring him here September s. However,
no official word has been received in
local court circles regarding his depart
ure from his home city, but it is be-
lieved that, by this time, he is on his
way to the coast. The last communica-
ton which Attorney Thompson had
from Mr.. McCarn was that the latter
was in Nashville. Whether Mr. Nc
earn intended returning to the coast
via Washington. D. c., Mr. Thompson
does not know.
Local federal court officials have
been informed that Mr.. McCarn will
arrive in Honolulu September on the
steamer Manoa At recent court ses.

81 did not know you were keeping store here, else L would have
been around to patronize you" was what a coored man was over
heard to say to a colored business man a few days ago. This bust
ness man had been at the one stand for several years, but this friend
did not know it. He was managing to make a living, but he had not
gotten his friends trade because he had neglected to let his friends
know that he was in business.
How many friends were there just like the firstP How many dol
lars had this colored man lost through neglect to notify the public
which includes his friends.
The business man did not even resort to the somewhat out-of
date method of scattering circulars. He had never considered ad-
vcrtisng. He. too, knew that white merchants who have built their
business from small beginning to large propositions had been large
users Of advertising space in the newspapers. He did not seem to
care to know that the public largely patronized these merchants be-
cause they let the community know what they had for sale. He was.
still in the beginning class, making but little more than a laborer
gets.
the white man who began small. The race wants to support you, but
wants you to let the public know what you have.

SOME OF THE STRUGGLES OF
THE NEGRO PRESS.

One evening this week at the close
of a very busy day l drew me up at
my desk. Before me was scattered q
mass Of newspapers, all bearing the
distinction og colored. My already
tired brain and sun strained eyes al.
most refused the task that was set be-
fore. But from somewhere and some
how I gained courage, and plunged in
by stirling with the one on top-it vas
the Oklahoma-O, there I go, l didn't
mean to call any names, but the
press work on that particular pour
nal was so poor that one could not
even properly translate the answers
to Booker Washington's article, ask
ing for better travelling accommoda-
lions for Negro passengers over GER
tain railroad lines; which was brave
ly undertaken. The Dallas Express
came in for a similar criticism while
the Boston Alliance and Conservative
Counsellor is void of that harmon
ious toning with other parts of the
papers on account of too much front
page advertisement. In others there
were similar and ever more grievous
errors.
The colored papers that take first
rank in typographical cleanliness and
mechanical accuracy are the Amster-
dam News, Richmond Planet, Kansas
City Sun, and New York Age.
1t is with no small degree of ap-
probation that l review the merits
and dement's Of these journals and
Journalists, who are struggling as /
am; for to publish a Negro journal
at this period means sacrifice at
every stopover. | see written in great
red headlines at the head of the mean
est effort in the way of a Negro jour
nal these words, Self Sacrifice"
Our readers are more sensitive to
literary abuse in a race paper than
they are to the big dailies. l often
have a man come into my office to
complain about a stick of matter up
side down in the last issue of an arti-
Gle that vas backed up the wrong
way. Now, if he, perhaps, knew that
my day had been sc hours instead Of
eight in comparison with his, instead
of criticising he would step in and
offer to pay his subscription with the
hope that his mite might help a lit
tie in relieving the situation. For
whenever you see faults standing out
conspicuously in Negro papers there
is but n conclusion to come to, and
that is that finance is oh, so short.
Now, don't stand apart and laugh
jeeringly or criticise an effort that
o yourself are not brave enough to
make. If you cannot give thousands,
you can give the widows mite and
the least o pay on your subscrip-
ton will be precious in the editors
sight.-California Eagle.

OOiOAoup 0IobC lNhlIShIAoA
Hon. N. C. Crews, Dear Sir: l am
enclosing herewith a copy of a decis-
ion handed down by the supreme court
of Colorado in regard to my case,
which was hastily tried in district
court of Otero county at La Junta,
Colo, in July, 1911, where l was in
stantly convicted and sentenced to
death and my aged father, a man of
near SO years, was also convicted as
an accomplice and sentenced from 80
to so years at hard labor in state pen
%itentiary. l was sentenced to death
for protecting my aged father and
mother in their own home, and my
life at the cost of the lives of the two
brutal, inhuman, p~rejudiced, Negro
hating, lawless policemen who were
assaulting my mother and father, and
seeking to murder me.
But after being denied a new trial
by the judge trying my case, my at
torney, Ex-Judge Lyman I. Henry of
Pueblo, Colo, assisted by w. B. Town
send, a-ttorney-at-law of Denver, Colo,
aided at great expense by good citi-
Tens of both races and members of
my lodge, the R. T. Coles lodge, No.
Sc, A. F. and A. NJ, Kansas City, Mo-,
and my fathers, Prudent lodge, No. 6,
A. B. and A. NJ, Kansas City, Kas,,
/ succeeded in getting our cas- to the
supreme court, which readily reversed
the judgment of the lower court, and
granted me a new trial which will
soon come.
Now, dear sir, the fight has just
commenced as the prejudiced class in
that community are determined that
the sentence imposed on my father
and myself be carried out, and they
will use every means in their power
to gain their hellish ends, and to
thwart all in their desire to see me
get justice. l appeal to you for finan-
cial aid, if you can assist mt in any
way through the columns of your pa
per, or otherwise, to meet the finan-
cial demands involved, it will be great
ly appreciated. My reason for sending
you a copy of the supreme courts de-
cision and comments, is for you to see
clearly IL WAS nOI an ACT trying VI az
tempting to defy the law in any way
but one of protecting my parents and
my life. | again beg to state that ]
am a worthy member of R. T. Coles
lodge, No. Sc, Kansas City, Mo-, and
my father, Joseph Harris, of Prudent
lodge, No. G., Kansas City, Kas, being
a 32 degree man and a 33 degree gen
tleman. So l appeal to you most ear
nestly, that you may do for us what
you can. You may refer to your re
