AZ this time, when so much agitation

shout the citizenship righs Of Afro
Americans, the following from speech
By the late President William McKin,
10y should give encouragement to ev-
~ person who believes in a square
deal for all Americans regardless Of
race, color or creed. 80
President Mckinley said:
Ny friends and fellow citizens, the
settlements Of that war must stand
- the irreversible judgment of battle
and the innexible decree Of a nation
q free men. They must not be mis-
interpreted. they must not be nulli-
led, they must not be weakened or
shorn Of their force under any pretext
Whatever, but must be acquiesced in
6eeiy In every part Of the republic,
without reservation or voidance or
svasion.
Il must not be equality and justice
b the written law only. 1t must be
equality and justice In the laws ad-
nanisration everywhere. and alike ad-
ministered In every part Of the repub-
bc 30 every citizen thereof. It must
not be the more cold Formally Of con-
statutional enactment. 1t must be a
living birthright, which the poorest
and humblest may enjoy, and which
the richest and most powerful dare
not deny.
Our black allies must neither be de-
serted nor forsaken. And every right
secured them by the constitution must
b surely given to them. as If God had
put upon their faces the color of the
Angio-Sax race. They fought for
tho dag In the war, and that flag, with
IN Il represents and stands for, must
secure them every constitutional right
b peace.
At Baton Rouge the first regiment
q the Black brigade. before starting
bor Port Hudson, received at the
hands of It's white colonel-Colonel
Staford-its regimental colors in a
speech from the colonel. which ended
with this Injunction:
"Color bearer, guard. defend, protect,
dc for. but do not surrender those
colors."
10 which the sergeant replied, and
- was as black as my coat:
Colonel, I'll return those flags to
you in honor, or I'll report to God the
reason why"
He fell, MORALLY wounded, In one Of
those desperate charges in front Of
Port Hudson. with his face to the enc
ny, with those colors in his clinched
6st pressed upon his breast. He did
not return the colors, but the God
above him knew the reason why.
Against those who fought on the other
sids In that great conflict we have no
Pssentment; for them we have no Bit

What Oswald Garrison Willard Says
About Race Segregation.
The news from Washington that the
effort to segregate the colored and
white clerks in the federal depart
ments IL checked II not ended must
cause to rejoice every one who be-
heves in fair play ana the square deal.
says Oswald Garrison Willard, editor
Of the New York Evening Post. In a
lengthy article In the Philadelphia
Press Jan. z He says:
Particularly to supporters Of the
Woodrow Wilson administration, like
myself. 10 the news welcome, for this
attempt to draw caste lines in the
very heart Of the government of the
greatest Of democracies, founded upon
the principle that oil are born free and
equal, constituted a grave blot upon
Mr.. Wilson's record. besides laying
him open to the charge Of preaching q
new freedom" but practicing q new
slavery" for those upon whom divine
Providencs in its wisdom has bestowed
dark skins.

AN OPEN LETTER. -
The National Woman's Christian
Temperance Union has launched a
campaign for National Constitutional
Prohibition in 1920.
We believe in ourselves; but in
finitely more in the God who said:
BE not afraid nor dismayed by rea-
son of this great multitude: for the
battle is not your but Gods"
We realize that it would be dis
astrous to the race, If in the final tri-
umph Of virtue over vice, the church
over the liquor traffic; our women
were found poorly represented in the
great organization Of the National
Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, which knows no woman by her
creed or color.
To forestall such a calamity, we
are calling for volunteers all over the
Nation.
January I, 1914, has been set apart
as out fast day, on which day all who
are interested in the weIIbeing Of the
race are called upon to unite with US
that there might be a great awakening
Of our women to this the opportune
time to fall into line and help save our
race from this vile form Of slavery
which the white mans civilization has
forced upon US.
At our National Convention in AS
bury Park, N. j., in November, Ohio's
colored women led the nation in max
ing great gain Of membership; New
York came next. The whole nation
must rally. The liquor traffic knows
no race, section, nor condition In its
work If evil. WE MUST BE ON
DUTY when the last blow for liberty
Of home, race and nation is struck.
Texas will rally for 1000 paid men,
bers. Tennessee and Arkansas 500
each. p
Mrs. George e. Haynes, Fisk Uni
versity, Nashville, Tenn, has been
chosen as our Secretary Of Advisory
Committees of College Work.
Miss Mary A. Lynch, Livingston Col
lege, Salisbury, N. c., is Chairman Of
Committee on Press Work. L
I cheerfully introduce these capable
earnest women who will help lead our
ranks to victory over the greatest
enemy we have known since emancipa-
ton.
We believe in the press as one Of
the greatest means Of helping to
establish truth and justice.
We believe that our men will rally
to help US as they discover the ear
nestness of our hearts set to action.
We therefore humbly ask that you
VIII give space in your valuable col.
umns of the next issue for this letter.
We further beg that you will let ap-

missioner Terrell continued:
Chapter Sc OF the Acts of 1914.
which 10 known as the Hun-Drock Bill
creating a system OF inter-county seat
roads and Designating them as public
works Of the CommonwssltA, has two
definite motives In view:
The FIRST motive OF this law IN that
the State OF Kentucky shall have .
uniform system OF public Highways
which shall be the roads leading from
the county seat OF each county OF the
Commonwealth to the county seats OF
the adjoining counties In this state
and to the state line on the roads lead
ing to the county seats Of the sdjoin.
Ing counties In the adjacent ststes;
ssid roads TO be constructed on the
most direct and practical route.
This gives each and every county
the same general system Of public
highways to be constructed under the
state aid plan. and 10 county Will have
less than four main highways, and
most Of them a. many As i've or six.
A system OF roads such Rs outlined In
this law hot only guarantees uniform
construction but through roads lsad.
ing in every direction from every
county seat to the county seats in the
nsiehborins counties. which means .
complete system OF highways for the
entire state. This system comprises
about 10 per cent OF the total road
mileage OF the state, and win care for
about 80 to So per cent OF the total
volume Of traffic.

AN OUTRAGED PEOPLE

Last Saturday, the oath. there
was a Circus in town. This az
gregatiOn was billed as Kit
Carsons" Buffalo Ranch Wild
West Show, and We venture the
assertion, that if Kit" knew OF
the rotten core wrapped Up In
this bunch he surely would have
turned over in his grave.
This was their last performances
and after dark, when the show
had been loaded on the cars,
they began TO pay their laborers,
in the first place they had torn
I'D u sidewalk for one of our citi'
gems, and refused to pay for it,
but he proceeded to the court,
took out an attachment for his
moHey which they paid, after
the Officers had proceeded to I'M
load G hcrse which had been
loaded.
They had given notice that
they would discharge ali en-
pioyees on this date, and they
paid about az follows:-if they
owed d man or woman $1,000
they would give them $4,000, if
il was 500 they would sometimes
pay $500, and in most cases
they paid less. In some instan-
ces the people lived SO far that
their railroad fare was as much
as $50. and these poor people
were paid as low as Slo, when
they were due as much as $50.
Some of them filed slut, and at.
tachment proceedings were is-
sued for them, but they had
waited too long, and these peo-
PIE had arranged 10 be pulled as
through freight from this place
to CINCINNATI, and went ahead
of the Passenger train. and made
their way drought Corbin Ge-
fore the Officers could overlake
them.
We have seen many cases OF
distress, but this beats it all.
Men who had worked tor seven
long weeks and had not taken up
any wages, in the hope to have
money to pay their way home at
least were turned away by these
cold blOoded managers at with q
very small pitance, and some
times without anything, many
women amoag them were run
ming about Wild with excitement
because they were lett stranded
in a strange land, most Of the m
weeping, more than a hundi ed
colorsd men, turned losse with.
DOT one cent, poorly clad, in fact
many of them barefooted.
A warrant was sworn out for
the Manager, be he made good
his escape, and these people are
left to weed their row, in a
strange land, with times hard,
aud positions hard to find, we
say that these people have been
treated wIongfully, and that the
management ought 10 be brought
to justice and be MADE to account
to the wronged people.
