PROTECTS RIGHTS WITH FISTS.

Atlanta, Ca, Sept. S.-Arthur Duck
ct, Detroit, Mich, was not used to be-
ing "Jim Crowed," entered street
car and refused to- be segregated and
sat by the side of (white) man. A
big hurley conductor ordered him to
the rear of the car and he refused.
The conductor struck Ducket and the
latter gave the conductor a Jack
Johnson" solar plexus. An officer was
called and bucket placed in jail and
fined 800. 1t was an unusual thing
here to see a man demand his rights
as an American citizen. He was well
dressed and well behaved and saw no
reason for him having to be told
where he should sit on a public car
rier, declaring he would stand on his
constitutional rights" as a citizen of
the United States. Then when the
conductor tried to force him and later
struck him, Ducket showed his man
hood by resenting it.

SEGREGATION" IN DE-
PARTMENTS GETS
A BODY BLOW

Segregation" because of race
and color got a body blow last
week when the order restricting
the colored employees of the gov
ernment in the State, War and
Navy Department building to the
use of certain toilets was revoked.
The order thus discriminating
against Negroes is said to have
been issued by Col. w. w. Harts,
superintendent of the building
occupied by the three executive
departments named, the same to
take effect August 9. The action
Aroused indignation throughout
the city and was the subject of
columns of denunciatory matter
I in the colored papers.
The case was brought to the
attention of Congress through
persons familiar with the facts.
In a short time, requests came in
from Senators and members of
the House of Representatives
that the order be set aside, and,
to the joy of the colored employ
ees affected, the new system in
augurated by Col. Harts was
abandoned. Citizens, irrespec-
tive of race or color may now
use at will any of the toilet con-
veniences in the State, War and
Navy Departments building.
The new order of things is re-
garded as a triumph for right
eousness and American fair play.
The requests for the revocation
of the order were made by Sena-
tors Thomas Taggart, of Indiana;
Atlee Pomerene, of Ohio; James
E. MARITIME, of New Jersey, and
William E. Chiffon, of West Vir-
ginia; Representatives James
Taggart, of Kansas; David j.
Lewis, of Maryland, and G. T.
Helvering, of Kansas.

coLoRED CITIZENS LEAGUE.

The entire strength Of the
League was again thrown to the
Republican Party last Tuesday
evening when short addresses
were made by the members at
their rooms, 1855 Washington
street, in which the old spirit of
Joseph D. D. Rivers, President of
the Organization, emphasized the
necessity of engaging in some
honorable act so as to give tan
sibIe proof of the Leagues desire
to participate in everything for
the welfare of the Republican
Party. Quite an enthusiasm was
displayed by the members who
exhibited particular interest in
the present campaign, as the pur-
pose since their inception is to
stand by the cause of right. This
organization that has been hold
ing it's own and using it's infIu-
ence for the benefit Of the Col

just in an intelligent manner any
differences between the races, is
not afraid to enter the political
world and champion the Repub-

progress the colored race has
made.

Better school facilities and
protection of life and property of
the Negro will be the only means
of keeping him from leaving the
South and going to the North in
search of education and employ
ment."
This is the statement of DR..
Robert R. Motion, president of
Tuskegee Institute in Alabama,
and successor to Booker 7. Wash
ington, who arrived in Savannah
this morning to attend the ses-
session of the Colored National
Baptist convention.
CAUSE OF EXODUS
Discussing the exodus of Ne
groes from the South. Logically
it is his home and he is better off
here than any other place. The
Negro has secured a taste of edu-
cation and is famishing for more.
If it is not given to him here he
will go elsewhere in search of it.
Could he obtain a good education
in the South he would stay in this
country. The soil does not draw
the color line. 1t yields as well
for the white as the black. The
Negro is singularly fitted for in
timacy with the soil in this part
of the world.
CONDITIONS HARDER
Conditions in the North, }"
said DIR. Motion, "are harder eco
nomically for the Negro. While
higher wages are paid there is
also higher living expense. War
has made tremendous demand
for labor in the North and this
same condition is true of the South
except on a smaller scale. But
a reaction will undoubtedly set in;
many of the Negroes will return
to the South, while few will
stay forever in the North. p"
Lynching has also had a great
deal to do with soaring the Ne
gro from the South to other
climes, according to DIR. Motion,
who stated that the Negro should
not be judged by the rash acts of
few bad" Negroes. Il be-
Iieve," said DIR. Motion, "that
the majority of the white people
as well as the colored believe in
allowing the law to take its
course, We colored people feel
the indiscreet acts of a few of
our people fully as deeply as do
the white people-they are just
as much if not more, a source of
modification to u.s."
NEWSPAPERS HELP
Newspapers can exert a great
influence for good, in the opinion
of DR.. Motion, who says since the
contact of the ante-bellum days
has been lost, the newspapers
