The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1920-02-28
THREE MEN AT CHICAGO.

According to press reports, three
men, two avowed candidates and one
a possibility addressed a colored or
ganization, in session at Chicago on
Lincoln's birthday
Governor LoWden, of Illinois, the
first speaker handed out a few gilt
tering generalities, for which he re-
ceived reward of scant applause.
Then came William Hale Thompson,
Mayor of Chicago, who said:
IF there is one great duty before
the people of America today it is to
uphold the Constitution, the Mayor
said.
1--WE see the sorry spectacle of vio-
lation of the constitution every day
and the colored people and William
Hale Thompson are going to stand by
the constitution and fight for it to the
last ditch.
Wild cheering broke forth and hats
were tossed in the air.
Then came Major General Leonard
Wood who ended an excellent address
with these clear cut words: e..
To-day the important thing is
law and order. There is no group that
stands for law and order more than

3. Will you endeavor to bring about
the abolition of Jim Crow" cars in
Interstate traffic?
4. Will you withdraw armed or
other interference with the independ-
ence of Haiti?
5. ; Will you urge national aid to
elementary education, without discrim-
ination against colored children?
6. Will you pledge the apportion-
ment of colored soldiers and colored
officers in the armed forces of the
United States in proportion to their
! numbers in population?
Z. Will you abolish racial segrega-
ton in the Civil Service of the United
States?"
The QUESTIONABLE was sent to the
following men: Herbert Hoover, Will
liam G. McAdoo, Governor Goodrich
of Indiana, Nicholas Murray Butler
president of Columbia University; At
torney General A. Mitchell Palmer,
Senator Hitchcock, Governor Cox of
Ohio, Senator Pomerene, James W.
Gerard, Senator Underwood, General
Wood, Senator Warren G. Harding,
Governor Lowden of Illinois, Senator
Hiram W. Johnson, Senator Poindex-
ter, Governor Coolidge of Massachu-
sets and General Pershing.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1920
ANOTHER CANDIDATE FOR WEST
POINT.

1t has been so long since congress-
man of any of the states has been fair
enough, man enough and unafraid to
appoint colored boy as a candidate
for West Point, that it is quite re-
freshing and gratifying to find an ex-
ception in Congressman L. C. Dyer
of Missouri, who appointed Richard W.
Jackson, aged 10, a graduate of Sum-
ner High School, St. Louis, as prin-
cipal candidate for the Nations Mill
tary Academy. There have been sew
eral colored boys appointed to West
Point in former years, but only two
were able to withstand the strenuous,
outrageous treatment accorded them
and to be ALLOWED to graduate. The
new candidate appears perly
equipped to undergo the ordeal if he
succeeds in passing the required ex-
animation in March, which we sim
cerely hope he will. We also hope if
he passes he will be fortunate enough
to override all obstacles that may be
put in his path at West Point and that
he will be permitted to graduate.

JAMES F. SPERRY,

Candidate for Councilman of St. Paul.
However, desirable may be the DOS
session and stewardship of wealth:
WIN whatever resignation We acclaim
knowledge to be power, and sit in sub
hllSSlVe amazement at the feet of those
possessed OF high intellectual attain
ment; with whatever patronizing man
ner we almost proclaim to be deities
ana worship the posterity of individu-
ais permitted by the creator to be the
principal actor in some scene of life's
great historic drama, the real measure
OF MANHOOD is not in any or all of
these possessions, but may be noted
by the depth of character that des-
cendlng from high station touches the
man farther down, in a sympathy that
reaches out like a pair of long low
Ing arms encircling the unfortunate
and heart that echoes Brother"
1t IS quite fortunate that we have
political campaigns at stated intervals
IL only Tor the purpose of learning who
our nelghbors are. James F. Sperry
meets the requirements of high-class
MANHOOD according to the rule laid
down. He does not need to promise
what ne will do. He has lived the
lie. His attitude toward colored peo-
pie is sufficient to convince stubborn
minded men of his depth and breadth
of character.
Mr.. Sperry is in the real estate husi-
ness, and no one ever knew him to h.,
in absolute control of piece Of nron-
erty which he would not willing]v saI1
or rent to reliable colored client
y
thougnt they wished to remodel the
present structure. Mr.. Sperry was
"llllng to loan that institution 100000
Aor ~ years on payments of $500 per
year. When Mars Lodge secured the
lots mat are now the site of Union
HAIL. Mr.. Sperry secured the lots
against az; a deal Of local opposition.
Wnen Union Hall was about to be con-
structed, when architects bickered
when contractors almost failed and
there was some question as to whether
lne speclhcations could be lived I'm TO
"nen money lenders made excuses as
10 why they could not place the loan.
tne Board of Directors was stabilized
py the firm knowledge that Mr.. Snerrv
would see them through.
Colored people are not asked to vote
tor Mr.. Sperry for Councilman as nav
Ior ms many kindnesses, such a
tnought Is beneath the ideals of the
man. out when colored men do vote
II should be vote for the protection
OF their mothers, sisters. wives and
calloren and the on-coming members
OF a prescribed race, for that reason
we wish them to be advised &C +o tho;r
friends. "" ~ 'noii

dore Roosevelt will be able to put
the country in line for greater prog
ress in the next four years. Some
other prominent leaders to take the
stand for Wood are Perry w. Howard,
Jackson, Mississippi, and Major John
R. Lynch, ex-auditor of the Navy and
at present residing in Chicago.
All people wishing to be enrolled
as charter members of the National
Colored Peoples Wood-for-President

lis, Indiana, can do so by sending in
their name and address at once to

General Wood is the only candidate
up to date to publicly state his posi-
ton in regard to the colored people.

And His Excellent Lecture Break Air
Records.

Records.
Col. Otis B. Duncan, of the Sth Hi
nois, was the prime factor in the
people OF the Twin Cities having three
very. delightful affairs this week.
Monday night under the auspices of
the local branch of the NJ A. A. C. P.
ne lectured at Pilgrim Baptist church
to the largest audience that ever at
tended lecture in a church here, and
this fact was all the more remarkable
because tickets were sold for $3.50
$1.O0 and so cents EACH
The church was very appropriately
and beautifully decorated with flags:
bunting and palms.
Dr. Waldo Turner, chairman Of the
Board of Directors, presided.
community singing was conducted
by Mr.. Chas. H. Miller with Mr.. Robert
Sterling Strong at the organ
Rev. A. H. Lealtad of St. Philips
Episcopal Church rendered the inyoca-
ton.
Atty w. T. Francis gave lucid his
tory of the N. A. A. C. P, its work
and prospects.
A tenor solo was sung by Mr.. Claude
d. Jackson with Mrs. Hattie Oliver
at the piano, and responded to an en-
core
Mrs. Eleanor Barksdale Smith sang
a soprano solo with Mrs Hattie Hall
at the piano. She also responded to
an encore
Lieutenant Samuel L. Ransom intro
duced the speaker of the evening with
much eclat.
Col. Duncan paid a glowing tribute
to the N. A. A. G. p. and it's activities
and urged everyone to join the associa-
ton; and, for more than an hour held
his audience while he told many things
they never heard before and nailed
some OF the false statements that have
been made about the colored soldiers
IN the late world war. His address
was listened to with great pleasure
by every one present and was fire.
quently punctured by warm applause.
Rev. ]. c. Anderson of St. James
Methodist Church pronounced the
benediction.
At the conclusion an informal recep-
ton was held and every one was given
an opportunity to meet the gallant
Colonel.
The occasion was very delightful
and successful in every way.

LEONARD WOOD LIKE ROOSE-
WELT,
Indianapolis, Indiana.

indianapolis, Indiana.
February %, 1920.
Ever since General Leonard Wood
declared before the Lincoln League,
assembled in Chicago, that he stood
for equal rights, equal justice and
equal protection to all citizens, in
other words, that he stood for. the
Rooseveltian Square Deal, and further
stated that America must be made safe
for Americans, hundreds have sent
their names to be enrolled as char
ter members of the National Colored
Peoples or-President-Club, To-
Gated in this city. Everyone feels
that Leonard Wood will be the next
great republican leader because he is
real American like Theodore Roose-
velt
Mr.. F. B. Ransom, recently appointed
on the Indiana state platform CONT
tee to represent the colored people of
this state, leans toward General Wood
because he thinks Leonard Wood
understands the needs of all the peo-
pie OF the United States and like Theo-

A very pleasant afternoon meeting
Of the Adelphia Club was held at the
home of Mrs. J. A. Lee on Tuesday
afternoon. The state of Ohio was the
topic under discussion. Facts brought
out by the principal speaker, Mrs.
Gladys James, disclosed Ohio as the
home state of the hostess, Paul Law
renee Dunbar and of five presidents of
the United States. Music was fur
nished by Mrs. Hattie Hall, President
of the Club.

the SIN OF SILENCE

To SIN by silence when we should
protest makes towards out of men.
The human race has climbed on pro-
test. Had no voice been raised against
injustice, ignorance and lust, the in
quisit on yet would serve the law, and
guillotines decide our least disputes.
The few who dare must speak and
speak again to right the wrongs of
n,any.-Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
