Woman's Suffrage

A MEMORIAL is pending before the Legislature
"A asking the senate to submit the susan u.
Anthony amendment granting equal sui.
frage 20 women. This memorial. introduced by
Representative Barnes Of Albuquerque, Is a fulfill.
ment only ia part Of the pledge Of the republican
party, made In its last platform. 90 submit the ques.
tion Of woman suffrage to the people Of this state.
No doubt the whole Of the republican pledge will
be carried out before this Legislative session ends
II has been suggested at Santa Re that an
amendment might be- proposed permitting women
in this state 10 vote FOR presidential electors and not
for state and county officers. This, Of course, would
be dodging the issuc and dodging Il the wrong way.
II women are entitled 10 vote upon the highest Of
an our Offices, they should be permitted TO vote
upon all.
There = a further suggestion from a high legal
authority at Santa Fe that the Legislature has the
right 70 extend the right ~ suffrage 10 women in
New Mexico without a constitutional amendment.
That was the course followed in the state of Illinois.
and the women voters Of that state have not as YET
been qucfiioned NJ the potts.

WHY NOT A
FAIR DEAL?
AN ABLE WHITE STUDENT IN SOCIOLOGY FLAYS HIS
OWN PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT WILLING TO STRIVE
AT AN IMPROVEMENT IN THE PRESENT
RACIAL DIFFICULTIES

for a better world for them and for
us. Some people dwell entirely upon
the argument attempting to uphold
their shallow-founded attitude that
such a thing as intermarriage Should
not prevail True enough; that is not
what the Colored people desire, nor
the white people They do not wish
to become entangled in mixed races,
they merely ask that we abolish or
destroy that almost indefinable dis
tant attitude which has no justifica-
ton, giving them our unselfish and un-
biased uplifting stimulus and encour-
agement, so that eventually through
process of cooperation and educa-
ton they might migrate from their
state of inequality to people fully
competent and worthy of the highest
respect, Just as other American citi-
zens. / feel confident that the edu-
Gated people of both races are broad
ly viewing the problem in a light that
will in time overcome the spirit shown
with little or no grounds for the as
sumed attitude.
This article is directed toward those
who are unwilling to aid the educated
people to the end that the world may
become more harmonious, better and
farther advanced, eradicating, wher-
ever possible, evils that tend to re-
strain progress, particularly in the di-
rection of adjusting the racial prob
lem, and if it is felt that it is applica-
BILE to Yourself think it over, basing
YOUR thought on justice and honesty,
and there is no question but what you
will readily comprehend the fallacy OF
the ideas you have been entertaining.
You only hamper development by
knocking" and being unfair and it
is strictly up to each and every indi-
vidual in this day and age to come
forth with the best there is in him In
order that love and friendship may
reign, rather than hatred and enmity.
Your good judgment will sense the
spirit in which this is given publicity
and it is hoped that it will be taken
to heart, resulting in an effective
change in the minds of those who are
prejudiced and not given over to deep,
conscientious and judicious thought on
this particular question, for the sake
OF humanity-A. G. Sieberts, Portland

SaultS upon women in June and July
in the District of Columbia, three of
which We're supposed to have been
committed by Il suspect who was at
the time of the riots under arrest.
The assaults had occurred on June %,
2S, 30 and July IS. Three assaults
occurred in Maryland outside of the
District of Columbia. on July ), 81 and
%. respectively The last two We're
attempts by "a ''light-skinned" colored
man and occurred after the riots had
been under way. 1t should be empha-
sized here that white criminals at
times darken their faces and hands
in order to fasten crime upon Negroes.
Mob violence is rapidly showing the
race problem to be one which cannot
be left for solution to any one section
of the country. Whatever ones atti-
tude toward race amalgamation, what
ever ones attitude toward the bogie
of 'social equality" the fundamental
basis of proper relations between the
races must be recognition of the Ne
grO's prerogatives as human being
and as a citizen. Crime must be
treated as an individual and not as
n racial matter. Such statements as
that of the New York Times editorial,
mitted by Negroes" in referring to
the situation in Washington, are mali
cious misrepresentation which only
intensity what may become, if it Is
not met with intelligence and fairness,
n hopeless condition of race war in
the United States.
Frank admissions and the revela-
tionS of expressed animus show that
economic motives stimulate the emo
tions which lead to race riots. "Crime
waves" are becoming thin and trans
parent pretext for assault upon Ne
groes The question which the Amer
lean people will have to face is that
of the economic and social status
which will be accorded the Negro as
n citizen. enfranchised in the North,
disfranchised in the South. The war
has meant a vital change in the posi-
tion of the Negro and in his own feel
ing about his position. In the south
ern states he contributed almost as
many men as did the whites. He
bought Liberty Bonds, subscribed to
Red Cross and other funds, and played
his part in the crisis voluntarily and
involuntarily as did the white man.
Now he feels the opportunity for life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness
which is accorded him as in some
sense a supreme test of this country's
professions. If the white man tries
to 'show the niger his place by flog-
ging and lynching him, the Negro,
when the government does not defend
him, will purchase arms to defend him
self.

CRIME is A DISEASE THAT DRAWS
NO COLOR LINE.

Chicago, ILL.,, Sept. 16.-The follow
ing editorial expression from the Co
lumbia State, one of the most influen-
tial dailies of the South, is being gen
orally discussed by people of all classes
and is regarded as one of the frankest
expressions of the results of lawless-
ness ever printed. 1t says:
Attacks on NegrieS merely because
they are Negroes, as reported from
Georgia, excite the Indignation of all
self-respecting white men of the South.
When crime is committed by Ne
gro and white rufflans set out to chase
and kill other Negroes. against whose
innocence is no shadow of evidence,
these white men place themselves on
the level of the Turks who massacre
Armenians-they are disgrace to the
citizenry of any land, civilized or semi
civilized.
Occasionally man has killed an in
nocent Negro and fancied that 'he got
by with it''-but It is not true. Man
slaying is not necessarily murder,
the laws wisely draw the distinctions,
but no mortal man has ever gained by
murder, whether his victim was of the
lowly or the mighty, and no murder
goes unpunished that the country OF
the murderer does not suffer the pen
atty many times over.

DENVER, COLORADO. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1919
JAPANESE
CRITICISM

The interest exhibited by the Japan
ese press in the race question in the
United States continues to increase, ac-
tortling to the comments reported from
Toxic, the capital of that progressive
country. One daily paper, known as
the Yamato, is reported as saying with
oaustic frankness: I'm America the
Negroes have no vote. If Americans
have any conscience they should be
ashamed" Another Japanese daily,
the Chugai Shogyo, remarked, with an
air of fatality, that ''unless lynching is
prohibited in America further disturb
ances may occur"
But the eliminating point of this
Far Eastern criticism of Western civ
ilization is found in the question pro
pounded by some of these japanese pa
pers in which they ask "Why American
missionaries should not try to prevent
such barbarous thing in their own
country as lynching, before thinking OF
cnlightening the Koreans?"
That is a fair question and one that
would require all the wisdom and all
the guile of the Federated Churches OF
America to answer to the satisfaction
of themselves or anybody else. But the
shame of it is that it should be posi-
BILE for nation of Orientals to thus
put the pretensions of so-called
Christian nation to the blush.
Let us hope that the time will soon
come when the Christian churches OF
America will be able to stand up and
answer such question without blush
ing.-,New York Age.

NO. SO.

Thousands of graves of white men
slain by white men are in the ceme-
teries of the South because of the toll
6tion and tacit encouragement or
murder of Negroes for when the white
Jury neglects to punish the murderer
of a Negro it fosters murder as habit.
Probably never was an innocent Negro
slaughtered in the South that some
white man not in any way connected
with the quarrel, did not bite the dust
as a result of it for the simple reason
that crime is a disease that draws no
color line and white men infected with
il by the killing of Negroes infect their
brethren.
1t is the law of nature that the kill
ing of Negroes does not go unavenged
and there is many n family of white
orphans in the South that owe their
sorrowful condition to the folly that
permits the practice of lawlessness
against men with black skins.

RIOTER ATTACKED
LITTLE COLORED GIRL

Chicago, Sept. 22.-Max Bauer,
white, 125 S. Hoistead street, the dis
trict which fomented much of the
strife during the race riot, exhibited
in a most disgraceful way, his Virtu-
Gus superior race" characteristics at
a movie heater, when he brazenly an
royed beautiful little Margaret Baker,
colored, 10 years old. The little girl
rushed out of the theater crying, and
told several cOlOred men what had hap
pened The men found Bauer in hur-
ry and gave him a severe beating,
Bauer was then arrested, and before
Judge Hayes, on n charge of disorder
~ conduct, was fined $50 and costs.
Nothing was done TO the men who ad-
ministered the beating. Bauer is over
30 years old.

to correct the statement made under
date of September 18th, to the effect
that the only four regiments of the Am

were the colored regiments. DIR. EN-

were cited, and that he was misquoted

Senate to Investi-
gate Race Riots
and Lynchings

Senate into race riots and lynching
throughout the United States is pro-
vided for in a resolution introduced by
Senator Charles Curtis of Kansas, it
was announced today by the National
Association for the Advancement of
Colored People, 30 Fifth Avenue, New
York City.
The association unreservedly en-
dorses the resolution and urges every
colored man and woman in the cOun-
try who desires better relations be-
tween the white and colored races to
write to his or her senator, urging ac-
ton on the resolution.
1t reads as follows:
In the Senate of the United States,

ferent parts of the United States, and
to ascertain as far as possible the
causes for such race riots and lynch
ings and report what remedy or RENE

mittee shall have power to have meet
