The first African immigrants, twen-
ty in number, landed in Virginia about
the last of August, 1919, coming over
in q Dutch man-ofwar. "They were
probably not slaves, but servants in
dentured for a term of years." (Ne-
gro Year Book.)
In 1928 slavery began in New York
and New Jersey and gradually gained
ground in the other States.
From twenty immigrants in 1913,
with the continual importation of the
African slaves, the race grew in
strength and numbers until when the
emancipation proclamation was issued
by the immortal and peerless Abra-
ham Lincoln in 1863 tthe African con-
tingent in this country had amassed
a population of 4,441,730. That same
race now numbers in its ranks over
100000 Africacn-Americans.
1t is hardly necessary to recount the
African-American's deeds of heroism
and valor on the battle fields for this
country, dating from the revolutions
airy war, when Cripus Attucks, an
African slave, was the first to shed
his blood for American independence.

HOLDING OUT OF COAL
MAY PROVE DANGEROUS
Clause in Naval Appropriation Bill
Believed to Protect Government
in Getting Supplies.

Any railroad or mine operating cor
poration that is bold enough to hold
out" coal that has been contracted for
by the United States government may
be pulled up with a sharp jerk by the
interstate commerce commission. The
government. which has been living on
short rations of coal. has suddenly dis
covered a few lines In the current
naval appropriation act which seems to
cover the situation very well! These
few lines provide that nobody who Of
fers to sell any article or supplies to
the government at any time shall take
advantage of any embargo or hold up
of supplies or cars: and that the gov
ernment's contracts must be lived up
to.
The attention of the interstate com
merce commission was drawn to this
today, and railroad officials who have
been sending in long explanations Of
why they have no coal cars may be
brought face to face with this un-
suspected passage in the naval appro-
priation act Of AUGUST. 1916. At present,
the government departments in WASH
ington have about enough coal to last
the week. with a few cars on the way.
The Chesapeake and Ohio lines are
suffering from a lack of cars greater
than any other line reaching Washing
ton, according to coal men here.

issued today predicted republican sue
cess at the polls next Tuesday, and
said:
The country is aroused. 1t speaks

ries and special elections. When the
republicans are united they are irwin
chile. The party is united. The vic
tory of Gov. Hughes Is assured. and
Ohio will be in the republican column
by a decisive vote. The House will be
safely republican, and I believe the re-
publicans will control the Senate. This
Is not political prognostication Of the

facts deduced from the votes indica-
tive of public opinion as expressed in
every election since 1912"
