NEGROES DISCUSS THEIR RACE
RIGHTS.

New York, n. Y.-Last weeks SEES
sions of the tenth annual convention of
the National Equal Rights League OF
the second national congress of all Col
ored Americans were devoted to dis
cussions of the Negroes rights and the
steps necessary to obtain their proper
recognition. Acting under the convic-
ton that $50 heavy grows our burden
and so CALLING our yoke that patience on
our part will soon become a crime
against ourselves" the delegates are
planning to send representatives to
meeting of Negroes in Washington In
December to convene when the national
Congress opens and to remain there
until congressional recognition is given
to their demands which have grown out
of the East st. Louis and other race
riots. The sessions here aim to fix pub
lie attention on the Negroes claims for
a full measure of freedom from dis
elimination of all kinds. The need of
a united effort by the race is felt and
the avoidance of false leadership is de-
sired.

Towel and Medicine cIoset.

A good idea for a towel and medi-
cine closet or cabinet In two bath.
rooms which have a common wall Is to
divide the one closet space into thirds
laterally. The upper third forms the
two shallow medicine closets. back to
back, with a mirrored door In eact
bathroom. The other rwo-ihirds en-
tend through the depth Of the closet
and are used for towels. Each Of
these divisions opens into one Of the

He has just paid his respects to Sena
tor Morris Sheppard of Texas in Thu
peppery style:
1t is a matter of common observation
that the debates in Congress are moi
very enlightening. But when the aver
age Congressional spouter gets on to 8
religious text, or a moral topic, he fairly
emulates the Dutehman who every
spring bored holes in his cellar door, as
he said, "to let the darkness out" The
latest example of this is Senator Morris
Sheppard, of Texas, who believes in
pumping virtue into the people by legis.
lative process.
He is as pious as Satan when rebuk-
ing sin and as orthodox as Barebones
himself. His theme is temperance, his
method Incorporate. The constant ae-
tivity of the liquor interests is a peril
to free institutions, according to the
Chinese craftsmanship which would
burn the house to roast the pig, while
alcoholic liquor is a menace to the ma
tion's health, morals and efficiency
Organized labor, cried the gentleman
from Texarkana, has been asked to OPP
pose prohibition because bartenders
and brewery and distillery employees are
members of unions. And then he
blathered thus:
"Labor is asked to imperil its very
existence, to take food from the mouths
and clothes from the backs of men,
women and children to sustain traffic
meaning hunger, disease, insanity and
death for the masses while liquor barons
live in luxury. If the liquor traffic is
to be eradicated, the aid of the Federal
Government must be invoked. The
partnership between the liquor traffic
and the Federal Government is one of
the most frightful heritages of the
Civil war"
To a man of Senator Morris Shep- |
pard' s stunted intellectual growth and
limited mental vision the yawp of the
temperance lecturer, like the caekle of |
the little barnyard hamlet where he
lives when at home, seems the noise of |
all the world. Men of his ealiber learn
But men of his environment
the two-State wilds of Texarkana,
where a gentleman who gets drunk in
Arkansas may sober up in Texas, and
vice versa, escaping the Sheriff of each |
vicinage the while-could profit by
nothing he might read in the doubtful |
event that he ever read at all. Such a |
person in the Senate of the United |
States recalls nothing we can think of |
except Mrs. Poyser's cock that thought |
the sun rose just to hear him crow.

PETITION TO WILSON AND

! PETITION TO WILSON AND
CONGRESS.-The people of the ma
ton realize that our great president
is burdened with problems Of state.
They also realize that he is doing
his utmost to hold the republic in a
firm grasp and to prevent war and
disaster. But millions'O citizens are
in dire need and distress for the want
of daily food and pray that speedy
relief may be given them by the law
making forces of the nation who
have direct power to come to their
rescue.
There is a corrupt practice in
vogue among certain classes where
by cereals, fruit and vegetables are,
for a certain price paid by wholesale
purchases, nOt-harVested and mar
keted, but allowed to rot. Persons
involved in such drastic acts on eth
er side of a deal should be severely
punished. Both bribers and the
bribed should be heavily fined and
imprisoned.
There is. a corrupt practice in
NOSuG DGLWGGu uuulGIOuS COulllllS-
sion merchants and railways where
by produce is allowed to be shipped,
but not delivered, in order that the
market. can be held in a starved con-
dition, that the merchants will be
able to charge the consumer eXorbi-
tant prices. Hundreds of millions of
bushels of vegetables and fruit are, so
held in check during certain times of
the year until the food rOts or is
dumped, all done to prevent delivery.
Every culprit engaged in such damn
able work should be prevented from
doing business or be heavily fined
and imprisoned

nation that allows such conditions Isl
untrue to its people Mandates
should speedily be enacted to prevent
storage of food longer than from 80
to go days. Any person violating
such a law, once it is enacted, should
have his stock cOnfscated and be Sc.
verely fined and imprisoned.
A nation that does not foster and
protect its people against the greedy
who ever cOnspire to rob them is a
failure. Ten million of our people
are now at the point of starvation.
Twenty million more are in dire need
of food and cannot get it owing to
greed and high prices.
The time is at hand when, as a
matter of self-respect, our govern
ment should come to our rescue to
prevent further suffering.-AIfred
