THE RIGHTS OF THE BLACK MAN

t0HullloliS arc GROWING worse, Hol
better in Washington the capital of
the United States, II we are to ac-
credit the statements of the Washing
ton Bee, edited by that veteran poll
tician, attorney and journalist, w.
Calvin Chase. The conditions that
he describes read very much like the
doings in Texas, Mississippi and
Louisiana. 1t says:
The rights of the people have been
violated by Il class of irresponsible
people. The recent riot was started
by certain soldiers and marines.
When the colorcd men in the South
west were attacked, they defended
themselves. When they exercised their
constitutional rights, they were called
"crapshooters and bootleggers." The
attack upon colorcd citizens Of every
description, standing and occupation
began Sunday, July 10. The colOreo
citizens were taken by surprise. Col
ored women were taken from street
cars and assaulted; colored men were
also taken from street cars and as
saultcd, and the only persons arrest
cd were colored citizens. Those who
had arms to protect themselves We're
arrested and charged with carrying
concealed weapons. They were cav
r;cd to the Police Court, and no mat
ter what their defense was, they
We're convicted. White men who were
assaulting colored citizens were not
arrested. Soldiers, marines and Pc.
licemen sided with the white mob
The killing Of young Neal was ono
Of the most cowardly murders that
was ever perpctrated upon young
man who had been to France to fight
for world democracy. At the time
young Neal was killed he had com

were told to disarm. while the white

the black man to protect his home

determination Of the law-abiding citi
Zens to protect themselves, because
the police authorities were powerlcss
to protect them. AS an evidence OF
that, Sergeant Detective Jackson was
shot in the presence OF his brave part

means by which they can give that

The exact quotas of member
ships assigned to Rock Island has
not been made public. The gen
eral goal throughout the country
is, however, 20 per cent Of the pop
ulation, so that Rock Island alone,
exclusive OF surrounding districts,
should enroll nearly 5000 adult

Hundreds OF former service men
stand ready to back up the local
chapter in its campaign, for they
have SO expressed themselves upon
registering with the chapter or in
visiting the home service section
1t is the general sentiment among
them that the Red Cross can al
ways be relied upon. and that when
a man once takes off the uniform
he can still find the services he
needs at Red Cross headquarters;
they know from personal expert
ence that Red Cross work must go
on. Following is an excerpt from
a note Of appreciation received by
the local chapter a few days ago
from a local former soldier in
Acknowledgement of a bit Of prompt
work on the part of the home ser
vice section:
II wish to thank you for your
very kind attention to this matter.
which has always been the char
acteristic Of the Red Cross on such
occasions. Again / wish to offer
to the Red Cross my appreciation
for all the kindnesses they have
afforded the service and ex-service
men,"
This note represents the sort of
thing which is part of the daily
work OF the local chapter, and
which goes on today as it went on
throughout the period of the war.
In conducting the membership
drive, the chapter is seeking a
guarantee of its continuance.

WAS FIGHTING AT

COST? PROVE 1T

He was a marine: he had fought
at Chateau Thierry and Belleau
woods, in the Argonne and at
Champaign, he had been wounded
twice, had served in the army of
occupation and arrived home last
month with the End division. Yes
terday he was speaking to a Red
Cross worker, and this is what he
said. IF the people of the United
States don't come across for the
Red Cross in this big drive I'm
reading about, I'll feel that all the
fighting I did wasn't worth the cost
Why, people don't show any signs
of recognition of what this means, :"

at a parade but when they see us
on the streets they don't even have

The Red Cross membership drive,

Rnds of returned service men and

afford to cast aside the protection
which the Red Cross offers in
emergencies and disasters. And
we want every man, woman and

it has been performing. If it is to
meet the needs Of the future as ii

Prospecting the Navajo reservation for minerals is permissible, but combing the country for wild animals is a different situation, said Luther Morton and Empor Laner, in Pres cctt last Sunday fresh from the In- dian country. They are professional hunters and trappers and went in last month, like zephyr, but got out like a cyclone, they stated. Said Laner in broken English: We wanted some game scalps, but nearly lost our own instead, and we haven't lost any mines or big Navajos, either"
 Their back tracl, work to outside the dead line of the reserve was somewhat fleet of foot, and they had all escort of red men along also.
 Both are headed for the Bradshaws 10 hunt small game, the wildcat and ioX being preferred. They have an outfit of five dogs and four mules, with ether apparatus aboard. They give the following market quotations for pelts:
 Gray fox, $75O; raccoon, $7OO; northern lynx, $70O; wildcat, $3; coy ote, frst-class, SIS; black fox, $75O; skunk, $; young lion, $25O, and SO on.
 The price for all belts is now the highest ever known, and the demand ai present is the greatest.

 Roadmen Return.
 Chief Engineer Fishel and corps have returned after making a pre- lininary survey of the highway from Skull valley to the Wickenburg country, and today leave to make a permanent survey of the route from Prescott to Skull valley, via Iron Springs. The proposed road tra- verses the country from Iron Springs to the railroad station in Skull valley to the right of and north of the s. F. P. & P. line, and will avoid crossing track on that strip. Also it is con- templated to change the route from Prescott to Iron Springs for a dis tance of about four miles.
 One More Car.
 If the office of Automobile Super visor is ever created in Arizona there is one individual in this city whom the Journal-Miner will nominate and en- dorse as without a peer in this line of expert locomotion, and his name is LeRoy Anderson. This townsman on Christmas bought himself a pres ent of a closed Sedan Overland from Crutchfield Bros, and he says it is the stuff. Attorney Anderson. if ou memory does not fail, has had in his string of gasoline, a trio of Fords, brace of Cadillacs, pair of Hups, a Stutz, a Studebaker, an Oldsmobile an Apperson, a Chevrolet coupe, the car vocabulary fails us. He is ir line to qualify for hooking onto ar airship. There is nothing else Jeff to amuse him.
