WHAT PHILADELPHIA COULD DO
PHILADELPHIA coURANTs. |

PHILADELPHIA COURANTS.
The Afro-American population
of this city is over 100, 900. We
must stop exploiting the disunited
sentiment and actions Of our citizens
and point to the organizations ID
this city that are succeeding, not
withstanding the tempestuous seas
surrounding these organized bust
ness lighthouses. In the first place
we should stop knocking race enter
prises, aud learn to speak encour-
agingly of our own business vent
ures, thereby creating united senti-
ment in the community 10 support
colored enterprises. We should put
ourselves out of the way to en-
courage Afro-Americans by support
and do not be 50 much harder to
please than when you are the Gus
toner of others.
South street is over two miles
long, aud it is thickly inhabited by
people Of other races doing business
with Afro Americans. 1t is esti-
mated that if colored people of this
city supported as they should our
enterprises we could have national
bank, trust company, IS real
estate Offices, 8 department stores,
S drug stores, IS groceries, ~ shoe
stores. 10 building and loan associ-
atoms, so dentists, S laundries, 40
tailors, daily papers, 2 weekly
papers and IS employing
20, 900 people.

JOS. S. FRANCE.
AN APOLOGY.

Sometimes mistakes creep into our
columns and we do not know just how
and, worst of all, there is no way to
explain. At the dinner party given on
August 18th, by Mrs. Dixie Gale, we
omitted the name OF Mrs. Frank Austip
-oDe Of the invited guests who was
present We apologize for this and can
only say that it was purely carelessness
or else the eleven courses were too
much for our overworked brain. Mrs
Austin is not sc small that she cannot
be seen, nor is her speech SO indifferent
that she cannot be heard; so the fault
is all ours.

MONTGOMERY. Ala, Aug. IS-
"Kid" johnson and Henry Russell
(Negroes) were lynched early to-
day at Hope Hull, ten miles from
here. Another Negro whose name
has not been learned, was r. scued
from the mob, but died at hospi-
tai. The Negroes were charged
with poisoning mules on planta-
ton several months ago
The above is charged to the
civilization Of Alabama, all adjoin-
ing State to Georgia, where the
lynching of Leo Frank, only the
day before. had aroused the entire
country. No evidence, but simply
charged with poisoning some mules
and this several months ago. 1t
seems unbelievable that there can
be such human brutes anywhere in
the United States They are not
only a disgrace to Alabama and its
civilization, but to the entire
country. Such cattle belong to
Hades.

The Portland Advocate has just
completed its twelfth year, and we
congratulate Editor E. D. Canady
and his wife, who is the business
manager. The tone Of the paper is
excellent, and is most creditable TO
Portland and the race Given the
support that it deserves, we believe
it would be made a much greater
factor for good in the community,
and yet we have no right to init
mate that it does not receive the
patronage Of all the people; but
somehow we feel as though there is
a chance for a betterment. We
extend congratulation for the past
success, and hope that the next
year will be one of the greatest
prosperity.

THE SCHOOL PROBLEM

u

paper in existence as The Day Book,
which helps to share their burdens.
Why under the sun is it necessary to
cut the salaries of the teachers? 1
wish was the deciding factor. There
would be no more use for squabbling
in the public schools. Just one SEN
tence would be my verdict and l
think it would be the unanimous de-
cision of all the taxpayers who ap-
prove of the public schools. Fire
the whole blooming outfit from Ella
Flagg Young down to the smallest
member" They have proved them
selves incompetent to handle the
schools. Do they think we are blind?
Remember we are not living in the
18th century. Have the taxpayers
not been paying taxes to keep the
schools in existence and many of
them, including myself, have been
doing without the necessities of life
to meet our taxes and then to have
the wool pulled over our eyes while
they say raise the taxes" Let every
taxpayer resent the suggestion and
let "the junket committee return the

my, an oppressor. If this be inevita-
BILE, God grant that die a pauper.
Personally, think our government is
to be rebuked for having given lis
tening ear to capital in allowing an
overfiux of population. Through i'm
migration capitalists hope and dream
of cheap labor through hunger and
cold.
Our institutions, hospitals and ho-
tells are even denying the real Ameri-
can the right to live by not employ
ing them and giving the work to
Europeans. 1t is a shame and should
be openly denounced.
This country is rapidly nearing war
with itself, because it has become a
nation divided against itself through
hunger and cold. The handwriting
is on the wall and from any angle
you may read. 1t has but one mean
ing: War, death, hell and destruction.

THE RIGHT Way

THE RIGHT WAY.-It is blame
good thing that we have man at
the head of our government who has
brains, patience and good judgment
enough to ward off a calamity which
would ruin the nation the same as
other nations have been ruined by
the war.
Spain, France and Rome were once
great. What are they now? Cruel
and unjust war has diminished their
power when peace and fairness
would have kept them standing on
solid rock. --.-
To the victor belong the spoils, but
the greatest builders are the ones
who build, not destroy. To them be-
long the spoils, the credit and the
right. Plumber, murder and decep-
ton have always been the stumbling
block to the right civilization, and the
uncivilized and greedy have always
mastered the game.
Does not the story Of Jesus Christ
and others of his type prove that? No
man ever tried to talk and act for the
multitude and for the good of hui
manity but what he obtained an
abundant supply of enemies.
The right civilization is great way
off, but it's a mighty good thing that
we have some real heads working
with all their might to advance it.
"An eye for an eye and a tooth for
tooth" is blamed poor doctrine to
bring about justice and it has kent
