CODE OF HONORABLE NAMES.

Recently valued exchange con.
tanned the following: -.
My name for every true man in
these United States will be the hon.
orable name of American"
My reference to all new Ameri,
cans born in other lands shall never
be dishonored by slurs, nicknames or
hyphens.
My purpose shall be to discourage
in the native born. the love for titles,
to help every immigrant to forget his
hyphen and be proud of the name
American and to stamp out the use of
such nicknames as words of derision
of the foreign-born.
We pledge our service never to use,
and to discourage everywhere, the use
OF such words as Dago, Dutchy,
Froggy, Ginny, Greaser, Heiny, Hor-
wat, Hunky, Hike, Mick. Paddy,
Sheny, Spaghetti, Wop, as applied to
any foreign-born resident of the
United States of America.
With all Of which we heartily agree,
but we would have been much better
pleased if the list had included some
OF the nicknames that are so frequent
ly applied to class of native born
100 per cent Americans, viz: I" Negro,
niger, darkey, coon, shine, moke,
dingy, pickaninny, ETC., and as alb
noxious as those named are to the
class to which they are applied. +

HERE'S A STRAW FOR THE
DROWNING,

The Federal Prohibition Agent at
New York has announced that alco-
holic liquors can be used for cooking
purposes without violating the law.
He says:
New Workers have no need to do
without brandy in their mince pies, or
wine sauce on their buildings, as per-
mits will be issued to hotels and res
taurants to keep stock of brandy and
wine or whisky on hand for legitimate
culinary purposes ...>s
If that's Federal law for New York
it also is for any other place in the
country, so we may look for land Of
flee business in the sale of mince pies,
and buildings with brandy and wine
sauces. If you can't drink it you can
eat it. Hip, hip hooray! $50

ganization conflict with that OF the
Church. On the contrary, it is an
al Ito the. Church, reaching material
that neither the Church nor Church
clubs can successfully reach and with
out bias, placing that material in the
hands OF the Churches for spiritual
guidance, distributing to each Church
its own, WITHOUT REGARD TO
RACE, CREED OR COLOR
Elsewhere in our columns we pub
lish an article that tells of the Fedora
ton and it is hoped that some of our
good citizens will interest themselves
to the extent Of writing to Mr.. Patchen
to learn the plans upon which the de-
sired cooperation may be given.

THE ONLY SOLUTION.

Recently at the Church of England
Congress at Southampton, Sir Sidney
Olivier. who was governor Of Jamaica
from 1907 to the end of 1912, put for.
ward the claim that no solution of the
American color question was possible
except by resolute disclaimer of the
color line and the race differention
theory. %-. -
Sir Sidney Olivier certainly knows
what he is talking about. In the
Island of Jamaica, where he was gov
ernor for five years. there are about
100000 colored people and only 10000
whites and yet there Is absolutely no
friction between the races. Jamaica
is a British colony and the govern
ment is just. Colored men enjoy ev-
cry civil and political right which
white men have and there is no color
line. - =: =.
Among other things Sir Sidney said:
my study. and comparison of con.
ditions in the United States and the
West Indies" he said. has brought
me to that conclusion. American and
colonial politicians and public men
are not Exeter Hall abolitionists nor
evangelical Christian missionaries. /
do not expect them to adopt the meth.
DDS Of missionaries, nor do sympa-
thize with all their programmes. But
it cannot be ignored ..,at it happened
that the faiths Of the moa who. laid
the foundations for the: peaceful de.
velopment Of the mixed community in
Jamaica were democratic and human.
itartan and. above all, uncompromis-
ingly Christian. ~ -.
Were race differentiation held to it
must increase civil discord. When tho
balance Of numbers is al. it is in the
South in America 1t must tend to
foster obscure preparations for civil
war and rebellion. II statesmen and
citizens face in the contrary direction
7 do not say that they will attain i'm.
mediately civil peace. but I am conf
dent that they will be travelling the
only road toward it.
Il do not suggest that race does not
greatly affect facilities for combina-
tion between humans in healthy
national life, but race difference is
only one of many schismatic agencies.
The solution Of the difficulty involves
discipline for the white man % we'll
as the black" - -. :. .-.s..>

Some colored men, particularly the

and shouting for different Republicans
who .have been mentioned" for the
Presidential nomination. The sane
way would be to stop, look and listen.
It will be time enough to shout when
some candidate comes out boldly and
announces that he will, if elected,
recommend the enforcement Of the
Fifteenth Amendment and use his In
f1uence with Congress to see that it is
enforced, and also to endeavor to Sc
cure the repeal of all jimcroW laws
and the abolition Of all segregation
regulations. That's the kind OF man

who were killed in France fighting for
democracy to the U. s. A. This
country is no place for colored man
when alive if he believes in democracy

Georgia Regulars
Plan for Frisco
Meeting Will Be Held in Atlanta to
Perfect Organization. Chas. Bar
rett Will Head Delegation.

ATLANTA, May 2l-What is
known as the regulation delegation to
the San Francisco convention, elected
by the Georgia democratic conven-
tion-will meet in Atlanta in a few
days to organize. A chairman and
secretary will be elected and arrange
ments made for transportation and
hotel Accommodations and preparing
the case which will present to the Gre
dentials committee of the San Fran
cisco convention.
1t is apparent that Chas. S. Barrett,
head of the national organization of
farmers, will be named chairman. Mr..
Barrett will receive the support of
both Watson and Smith men. No
other name has been mentioned.
In preparing to present Georgia's
case before the credentials committee
the delegation has requested Colonel
H. H. Perry, a prominent Gainesville
attorney, to commence work at once
on brief of the case. Colonel Per-
ry is an authority on such questions.
Members OF the regular delegation
confidently expect the San Francisco
convention to honor their credentials
and seat them. They believe the San
Francisco convention cannot throw
out regular delegation regularly
elected by majority vote of a con-
vention of Georgia democrats.
The Palmer delegates elected after
the State Convention by a minority
will rely largely for seats on the
Woodrow Wilson machine which
they hope will control.
