was sent to France as the special
representative Of President Wilson,
the arch enemy of the colored race.
The Crisis and other periodicals and
many colored soldiers asserted that
instead of investigating and endeav-
oring to correct the outrageous treat
ment to which the colored troops
were subjected, he rushed around,
made a few speeches telling the col
ored soldiers to be good" and then
took the first boat for the u. S. ''in
order to attend a conference at
Tuskegee." {. \ -. 4
For colored man to laud the
brutal South, which has heaped un-
speakable wrongs upon his people for
hundreds of years, is disgusting ex-
hibition of servility. Imagine if YOU
can, am Irishman approving the aw-
full murders by the British soldiery;
conceive if you can, a Jew condoning
the pogroms in Russia, Poland and
the Balkan states; think of an East
Indian lauding the English who blew
many of his countrymen from the
mouths of cannon. If you can visual
lze these things then you can get a
true picture of what it means for a
colored man to laud the South.

DR.. BENTLEY BANQUETED.

Recently two hundred of Chicago's
leading citizens gave a banquet cost
ing more than $1,000 to DR.. Charles
E. Bentley, the famous dentist, and
ne we'll deserved the honor. The
editor of THE APPEAL has known
DR.. Bentley since his youth in Gin
cinnati and has watched his career
with interest and has seen him rise
by his own efforts from a poor boy
to one of the greatest dentists in the
country. He has received countless
honors from the members of his pro-
fession who regard him as one of the
most skilful practitioners in the
world. ..,.. .,.. y
In spite of the demands of his
work upon his time, and he has a
practice paying $4,000 to $25,000
per year, he has for years given much
of his valuable time in looking out
for the interests of those less for
tunate than he. His activities as
public spirited citizen have won him
the love and esteem of all who know
him.. @ r. -.

NAUSEATING.

1t is nauseating to read the rot
given out by R. R. Motion, principal
of Tuskegee, as he travels through
the South in jimcrow cars, stopping
now and then to make speeches laud-
ing his oppressors. If he were the
only one to suffer it would matter
little, but his words are promptly
telegraphed all over the country, and
every time he opens his mouth the
colored people of the entire country
sink lower in the minds of those who
read. Many of his statements are
wholly without foundation in fact.
For instance in a recent lecture
before the students of the University
of North Carolina, the wires say he
said: 'The Negro race has advanced
further than any similar number of
colored people anywhere on the globe
because it has had the privilege of
coming in contact with the white
people Of the South" Could any
thing with smaller amount of truth
and greater amount of servility be
compressed into one sentence?
The census of Brazil shows that
there are about 22,ooo,OOo people
with more or less Negro blood in
that country, or nearly twice as many
as there are in the United States,
according to census figures. And the
colored people Of Brazil, although
they were once slaves and were not
emancipated until 1883, a quarter of
a century after Lincoln's proclama-
tion, have advanced further than the
colored people in this country be-
cause they have reached the point
where color does not count. They
are absolutely free from any civil or
social determinations. The color line
does not exist in Brazil and the
blacklist Brazilian is in every, way
the peer Of the whitest of his
countrymen.'
Principal Motion deems it wonder
full thing that his race. tehas had the
privilege of coming into contact with
the white people of the South" Here
are some of the benefits of the con-
tact: Two hundred and fifty years
of slavery; enactment Of the in
famous Black Codes to retain slavery,
in fact, after it's abolition; segrega-
tion; denial Of living wages; denial
of equal school facilities; disfranchise-
ment; jimcrow cars, etcetera. Why

The DU BOls ADDRESS

The coming Of DR.. w. II B. Du

under the auspices of the ST. Paul
Branch Of the N. "A. "A. e. p. fur
nished the large audience that greet
ed this learned gentleman at Peoples

The pastor of the church, Dr.. How

The octette choir, Of the church, fur

appropriately
DR.. Du Bois took for his subject,

he please his hearers with the man
ner in which he rendered his address
but he gave them valuable informa-

facts and figures with which very
few of the more than 1000 persons
present were cognizant. The visit of
DR.. Du Bois and the favorable i'm

jimcrow people who turn the other
cheek when they are kicked and get
another kick. Oh, no; they fight back
when they are attacked. =
For some time past Henry Ford,
the millionaire automobile maker, has

Dearborn Independent. The Jews
have money and the influence which
goes with it and they are preventing
the. sale of the paper. 1t has al

way to do it; fight back.
