TURKEYS GREAT COUP,

That was neat coup executed by
Turkey. Seeing that the time was
opportune she has by stroke Of the
pen abolished the obnoxious system of
extraterritoriality and declared her
self supreme in her own house.
The principle of extraterritoriality
has been very exasperating to the
Turks. The alleged "Christian"
powers, because the Turks are Of ASH
attic origin and Mohammedans, assume
that they were unable to handle their
own affairs and compelled them by
force of their superior warships to
submit to the indignity Of allowing
consular courts of the various powers
to take the place of the regular Turk
ish courts. Then Great Britain, Rus
sia, Germany, France, Austria and
Italy established branch postoffices in
the various cities of the Ottoman EN-
pire for the use of foreigners and in
order to compete with these usurping
establishments the Turks were
obliged to sell stamps at prices below
the regular postal union rates. The
subjects of the great powers were
treated with more consideration than
Turkish citizens and exempt from tax
alton.
The situation was almost unbear-
able, but the outrageous condition was
backed by the combined navies of
Europe so what could the poor Turks,
who had but a few bum battleships,
do? When they voiced strong pro-
tests against the injustice of the
thing, the Christian powers simply
pointed to their warships.
Then came change. The great
Christian powers began to spring at
each others threats and while they
were engaged in the delightful pas
time of numbering men with machine
guns, Turkey, which is now ruled by
the young Turks" who have modern
lied court procedure and brought. the
tribunals of justice up to date, seized
the opportunity to put an end to an
unjust and humilating conditions and
put one over" on the Christians.

"cOWARDIcE ON THE PLATFORM"

SO"AHOISE YIN ne FLA fOhM.
A recent issue of the Atlanta Inde-
uendent had a full page Of redhot
editorial matter lambastig the coward
ly ours who call themselves Headers"
If our esteemed contemporary will
keep up this kind of work for while,
perhaps our Georgia brethren may be
aroused from their lethargy and do
as the editor suggests, and these are
his words: kick out of pulpits and
platforms every Negro leader who
does not protest against the indigni-
ties thrust upon u.s."
Under the caption "Cowardice on
the Platform" the editor says: "No
race or people in the history of civil
cation ever endured leadership Of
more consummate cov1ards. The aver
age Negro is a coward in his own
esteem. Void of respect, appreciation
or manly resentment, he submits to
every indignity, with apology, the
white man inflicts upon him. When
we speak of towards, we do not mean
physical towards, but moral and intel
lectual towards. The coward who
hasn't the moral courage to resent a
wrong. The coward who submits to
every indignity imposed upon him by
cowardly newspapers; the coward who
accpets every jimcrow accommodation
offered.
The Jews will not read a paper that
is hostile to the Jews. The Irishman
resents with all his hot blood insults
heaped upon his race by newspapers
and other nationalities. The Japanese
resents with all his manliness, with
all his soul, with all his might, every
wrong done him because of his race,
his color or his condition.
There is nobody coward but the
Negro; there is nobody that kisses the
hand that smites him but the Negro;
there is no race so divided against it.
self and is such consummate band
of bootlickers, towards and sy-
cophants as black educated leaders.
What we need is manly leadership
one full of moral courage and intel.
lectual bravery. Men who will tell
the race Of indignities that they ought
not to endure, and how they may rid

Silence Is Infamous.

Possibly the worst thing permitted
to go on and work injury to Negroes,
has been the silence of Negro speak

Ben. Tillman, Vardaman, Blease and
others have been telling the North and
West about Negroes raping white
women. BY all means they should
have been rebuked and their state

young onions. The onions be harvest

FIGHTING FOR THE BALLOT,
(St Like Herald Richmond Vol

The Congressional Union, the white
women's national suffrage organiza-
ton, is out on the war path against
every democratic congressman in the
nine states in the West in which
women vote. The Congressional Union
has headquarters in Chicago, and is
using every possible political effort to
get the scalp of every democrat who
is opposed to women receiving the
ballot.
Everybody seems to understand the
power of the ballot except the colored
people. We need but little here be-
low, and we don't need that little long.
Other folks need all they can get, and
need it as long as they can get it
but we don't. e.

What Segregation Means
Rev. Quincy EWING Southern Caucasian Born and Reared in
Mississippi Shows the Policy of the South is to Keep
.~". the Afro-American in Inferior Status

Why is it that in every Southern
city no Negro is allowed to witness a
dramatic performance, or a baseball
game, from a first-class seat? In
every large city, there are hundreds of
Negroes who would gladly pay for
frst-class seats at the theatre and the
baseball game, were they permitted to-.
1t can hardly be that permission is
withheld because theatres and base
ball games are so we'll attended by
half the population that first-class
seats could not be furnished for the
other half. AS a matter Of fact, thea
and baseball grand.
stands are seldom crowded; the rule
is, not all first-class seats occupied,
but many vacant Surely as simple as
moving from seat to seat a makeshift
screen in street-car, would it be to
set apart a certain number of seats
in the dress-circle of every theatre.
and in the gr1ndstand Of every base
ball park, for Negro patrons. The rea-
son why this is not done, is perfectly
obvious; it would be intolerable to the
average Southern man or woman to
sit through the hours of theatrical
performance or baseball game on
terms Of equal accommodation with
Negroes, even with a screen between.
Negroes would look out of place, out
of status, in the dress circle or the
grandstand; their place, signifying
their status, is the peanut-gallery, or
the bleachers.
The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1914-11-07

Consider further that, while no Me-
gro, no matter what his occupation, or
personal refinement, or intellectual
culture, or moral character is allowed
to trave in a pullman car between
state lines, or to enter as guest no.
tel patronized by white people, the
blacklist of Negro nurses and Wallets
are given food and shelter in all first
class hotels, and occasion neither dis
gust nor surprise in the Pullman cars.
Here again the heart of the race prob
lem is laid bare. The black nurse with
a white baby in her arms, the black
valet looking after the comfort of
white invalid, have the label Of their
inferority conspicuously upon them;
they understand themselves, and
everybody understand them, to be SER
wants, enjoying certain privileges for
the sake of the person served. Almost
anything the Negro may do in the
South, and anywhere he may go, pro-
vided the manner of his doing and his
going is that of an inferior, Such is
the premium put upon his inferiority;
such his inducement to MAINTAIN it.

Advice on Caring for Chicks

wheat, one part mixed millet seeds
This ration is fed until the chicks
are five weeks old After that we
feed them grain mixture of two
parts whole wheat. one part cracked
corn. and one part buckwheat. We
also have dry bran and beef scraps
in hoppers and let them have &C
cess to 1t at all times. Green food
Is absolutely necessary to keep them
In condition. During the early
spring, before any grass can be had,
we feed sprouted oats, which Is
greatly relished by both chicks and
old fowls.
After the chicks are old enough
to SIT on a roost we let them run
together and roost In one large
roosting room which is usually a
part Of the large laying house. At
this time we feed them grain In sir
inches Of good, clean litter and in
this manner induce exercise, which
means strong, vigorous pullets.
Keep the chicks and fowls free
from lice. as lice are the chicks
greatest enemy. Dust them at least
once a week with a good powder,
especially in hot weather. When the
chickens are about six weeks old. Gull
out the least promising specimens
and prepare them for market by
placing them In an enclosure, slight
ly darkened and feed all the corn
and buckwheat they will eat for a
week or two, not neglecting water
and grit-D. W. Goodling.
