NEGRO FREEDOM IN NEW YORK.

There riot in New York few days
ago 1t grew out of the fact that few negroes did
not obey the mandate of New York custom to put off
the straw hat certain date. Negroes who declin-
ed pay the price of the hats for fall and winter
and disposed to cling to the straw for few days
longer were attacked in the Streets their straw hats
smashed and general roting followed.
1t shows how easy it is to stir up trouble between
the whites and the blacks in the north In the south
negro wear his straw hat all winter if he likes,
and his freedom the matter is not nterfered with but
in the north where he has been led believe his real
friends located he walks chalk line and for the
least deviation from style and custom he is attacked
in the streets and forced into riotng.
The negroes who have been leaving the south to
find better living conditions will get wise to the
fact that the place where they have the freedom
and the largest of personal privilege is in the
south where they known and appreciated for what
they worth.-Moultrie Observer.

BELATED JUSTICE.

All Americas is pleased today to know that the
city council last night unanimously adopted new
schedule of pay for the fremen of the city of Amer-
Gus giving them the rate of pay asked in their
petition.
Since the first recent agitation for pay for
the remen began the public has been favorable to the
council acting in accordance with their request but
fortunately the pubcs approval of the proposal did
produce the money the city treasury, and those
officials who had to meet the cty's payrols could do
little at that time knowing they would not have the
money with which to pay the deserved increases.
Just at this time however, the city finds itself more
fortunately situated, and the officials have been able
to work out plan whereby the increases they desired
long ago to give could be taken Of With a new
fiscal year starting and the legislature having provided
way for the citys floating Indebtedness to be taken
of by special levy the city will have funds to
meet its absolute needs this year-and paying living
wage to its servants is absolute need.
The fremen may especially thank Alderman
Poole who, backed by Mayor Sheppard, arranged the
financial program that permitted the men to receive
their increase. 1t he also, who the injustice

raises elsewhere among city employees in conformity

DOLLAR DAYS.

Americas merchants overlooking one of the
most profitable merchandising schemes yet evolved by
modern business-DOLLAR DAYS. And just why this
splendid trade prodacer should be neglected is mys
terry to The Times Recorder 1t requires little effort
not much of expenditure in time and money, and
the results far and away greater than any other
scheme yet tried by merchants in a large number of
large and small towns.
1t is true that reach its ultimate success Dol
lar Days require COOPERATION on the part of the
merchants, but Americas merchants have shown time
and time again that they CAN GET TOGETHER
Yesterday Frank Laner addressed the Americas
Rotary club this subject Mr.. Lanier spoke of the
many small cities he had recently visited in the West
where Dollar Days bringing great crowds of buy
ers-from far and near-into these towns. Others
spoke of the signal success of Dollar Days in towns
smaller and larger than Americas RIGHT HERE IN
SOUTH GEORGIA
Americas is a natural trading center for $4,000
or 10000 people These throngs can be attracted
to Americas if only have THE WILL to go after
them-if Americas merchants will get together for
their mutual benefit.
The officials of the Chamber of Commerce, the
officials of the Retail Merchants Association, the Of
1tlaI5 ana members OF the AmeucuS Rotary club will
lend their every effort towards making Dollar Days
in Americas great success The Times-Recorder has
advocated Dollar Days before, Nothing has result
ed from these agaton because there has been no cen
tralzed cooperative effort made.
For many years Dollar Days have been monthly
features in hundreds of towns. They have become
fixed in the minds of the public The crowds grow
larger with each succeeding Dollar Day until men and
have just formed the habit of coming into the
town the Second Wednesday" of the Fourth
Friday" of every month Like all other successes it
soon begins to carry itself gathering momentum as the
Dollar Days pass.
Let's all get together and begin Dollar Days, TAX
ing of the days of the fair as the initial Dollar
Day. The advertising value to the town. to the ind-
vidual merchants, to the Sumter County Fair will be
greater be imagined
Americas be of the greatest trading CEN
tiers in all of South Georgia if ONLY HAVE THE
WILL TO pTILL TOGETHER.

ESQ LEADERS SIGN APPEAL FOR RATIFICATION

written appeal, signed by $50 well-known men,
favoring the immediate ratification of the treaty with
change, has been presented to every member of
the Senate. Among the signers of the appeal
President Taft, ex-Attorney General Wickersham
President Lowell of Harvard University, Judge Gray
CT Delaware, President Gompers of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, Luther Burbank Lyman Abbott John
Burroughs, Alton B. Parker, Oscar S. Strauss Jacob
Schif, Henry P. Dawson and many others including
governors and former governors of number of states
senators and men and women of national reputation
Part of the text of the appeal reads follows:
standing at a distance from the conflict in the
Senate Chamber, plead for immediate ratification
without delay Our land requires it. A state of ner-
strain, tension, and unrest exists manfestng it.
self in disturbances which in some cases have self
fact its aftermath. The world is put in imminent
peril of by the lapse of each day. Dissen-
sions between and our former allies are being sown
We firmly believe and solemny declare that the states
and cities in which dwell desire immediate peace"
The rejection of the treaty the appeal says, would
mean that it would have to be referred again to Ger
many. This the statement says cannot be. The
American people cannot, after victorious war, per-
nit its government to petition Germany which has
cepted the treaty. for its to changes in the
treaty. Yet if the United States should amend the
treaty for its own purpose and policy, Germany would
have. full right to ask for concessions.
Germany has agreed to make no claim in regard
to enemy property seized in this country to an amount
of $7OO,OOO,OOO Our recent foe could ask for re-
opening of this issue and of the Lusitana claims 1t
could raise every question open before hostities in
regard to submarine warfare and the treatment of its
nationals in this country All the provisions for our
trade in Germany raised by the economic clauses of
the treaty many Of them vital to our Industries and
farms, in dye patents dye supplies and fertz-
ers, the working of the Reparation Commission which
superntends the trade of all with Germany could all
be brought up by Berlin for readustment by our ne
gotators, acting for the United States alone and no
longer associated with other victorious powers or sup
ported by victorious American army on the German
border"
