bankruptcy, and America, where class
is not recognized, is bounding to-
ward prosperity.
Of course, there may be plenty of
other reasons why Europe is in bad
way and America is prosperous. But
there is little doubt that the two boys,
Class and Calamity, are twin brothers,
Class means dividing the country
against itself; means distrust, waste
and hate. If there is any such thing
at all az Americanism it is that spirit
that is opposed to class of any kind;
which refuses to be dominated by the
capitalistic class, or the labor class,
or the religious class, or the political
class-which refuses, indeed, to re-
cognize any class at all, but insists
that in the eyes of the law, even as
in the eyes of God, one human being
is entitled to the same rights and
privileges as another, whether he be
Jew or Gentle, black or white, rich
or poor.

difficult, extremely hazardous, yet Link
Stevens drove fast. Then, in taking
an abrupt curve, grasping spear
ruined another tire. This time the car
rasped across the road into the cac-
tus, bursting the second front-wheel
tire. Like demons indeed Link and
Nels worked. Shuddering, Madeline
felt the declining heat Of the sun, saw
with gloomy eyes the shading of the
red light over the desert. She did not
look back to see how near the sun was
to the horizon. She wanted to ask
Nels. Strange as anything on this ter
rible ride was the absence Of speech.
AS yet no word had been spoken. Made

with the fire in her beginning to chill,
with lifelessness menacing her spirit,
she watched, hoped against hope,
prayed for long, straight, smooth
road
Quite suddenly she saw it, seemingly
miles Of clear, narrow lane disappear
ing like thin, white streak in distant
green. Perhaps Link Stevens heart
leaped like Madeline's. The huge car
with a roar and a jerk seemed to an
swer Madeline's call, cry no less
poignant because it was silent.
Faster. faster, faster! The roar be-
came whining hum. Then for Made
line sound ceased to be anything-she
could not hear. The wind was now
heavy, imponderable, no longer swift,
plastic thing, but solid, like an onrush-
ing wall. It bore down upon Madeline
with such resistless weight that she
could not move. The green of desert
plants along the road merged in two
shapeless fences. sliding at her from
the distance. Objects ahead began to
blur the white road, to grow streaky,
like rays Of light, the sky to take on
more Of a reddening haze.
That was Madeline's last clear SEN
sation upon the ride. Blinded, daZed,
she succumbed to the demands upon
her strength. She reeled, fell back,
only vaguely aware Of helping hand.
Confusion seized her senses. All about
her was q dark chaos through which
she was rushing, rushing, rushing I'M
der the wrathful eye of setting sun.
But at an end of infinite time that
rush ceased. Madeline lost the queer
feeling Of being disembodied by a
frightfully swift careening through
boundless distance She distinguished
voices, low at first, apparently far
away. Then she opened her eyes to
blurred but conscious sight.
The car had come to a stop. Link
was lying face down over the wheel.
Nels was rubbing her hands, calling to
her. She saw a house with clean white
washed wall and brown-tiled roof. Be
yond, over a dark mountain range,
peeped the last red curve, the last beau
tiful ray of the setting sun.

CHAPTER XIII
At the End of the Road.

At the End Of the Road.
Madeline saw that the car was sur
rounded by armed Mexicans. They
presented a contrast to the others she
had seen that day; she wondered
little at their silence, at their respect
full front.
Suddenly a sharp spoken order
opened up the ranks next to the house.
Senior Monies appeared in the break,
coming swiftly. His dark face wore
a smile; his manner was courteous,
important, authoritative.
"Senora, you got here in time. Ell
Captain Stewart will be free"
"Free!" she whispered.
She rose, Keeling.
"Come," replied Monies, taking her
arm. "Perdoneme, Sonora.
Senior Monies led Madeline through
a hall to a patio, and on through a
large room with flooring of rough,
bare boards that ratified, into small
er room full of armed quiet rebels
facing an open window.
Monies directed Madeline's atten-
ton to a man by the window. A loose
scarf of vivid red hung from his
hand

Monies. "The signal was about to be

"Stewart's walk! echoed Madeline
"Ah, Sonora, LEI me tell you his SEN

honor and happiness to revoke for

Stewart had been contaminated
and sentenced according to a Mexican
custom observed in cases of brave SOL
dierS to whom honorable and fitting
executions were due His hour had
been set for Thursday when the sun
had sunk. Upon signal he was to be
liberated and was free to walk out
into the road, to take any direction he
pleased. He knew his sentence; knew
that death awaited him, that every
possible avenue Of escape was blocked
by men with rifles ready. But he had
not the slightest idea at what moment
or from what direction the bullets
were to come.

"He is in irons, and must answer to

With a heart stricken by both joy
and agony, she saw Monies give the
signal.
Then she waited. No change mani
tested itself down the length Of that
lonely road. There was absolute 81

terribly, infinitely long seemed the
waiting!
Suddenly a door opened and a tall

THE PAN-AFRIcAk CONGRESS

Announcement is made that the
Pan-African Congress will be held in
Lisbon. Portugal, in November by W.
E. B. Du Bots who has been chasing
this will-o' -wisp around for several
years when he ought to have been in
the U. S. A. looking after the rights
of colored Americans.
With colored Americans suffering
every conceivable kind of injustice
right here at home why should the
funds of the N. A. A. C. P. be used
to promote such wild scheme as
the Lisbon meeting. 1t is impossi-
BILE for it to do anything except, to
stir up trouble in countries where
the colored people are better treated
than in the U. S.
That money ought to be used here
at home.
Since Du Bots has come out openly
as favoring certain kinds of jim
crowism after having devoted his life
to the fight for equality, almost any
thing can be expected of him. ;

effect upon society. The machinery
of government is always in the hands
of the white man. Although he may
be ignorant unjust incompetent he
feels it his duty to rule. The world
today feels the weight of dishonesty

the duty of all to work for the har-

man. Let each and all willingly sacri-
flee their individual welfare upon the
alter of the public good.

Segregated Politics


In this "LAND OF THE FREE,
AND HOME OF THE BRAVE, we
have Colored Politics, white politics
and just politics. We have Lilly White
Republicans and plain Republicans,
white Democrats, Colored Democrats,
and Democrats. The very easiest to
distinguish among this lot of politi-
clans is the Colored Republicans and
the Colored Democrats. Democrats and
Republican constitute the field of po-
litical action that circumscribes the
entire political ambition of the Col
ored politicians. By politician, the
term is not necessarily applied to
those we'll versed in, and can discuss
political issues intellegently; but
more generally that class of men that
can impress the successful candidate
that success has been more or less
due to the efforts of some petty job
seeker. And this petty job seeker is
the colored politician. The white
politician seeks to hold or control
political positions; the colored politi-
clan seeks to hold down a job. And
these SPITTOON POLITICIANS
have been the source of a great deal
of the political grief of the colored
people. The vital concern of this
class of men is holding down
some CONSPICUOUS jobs, regardless of
its Importance; the welfare of the
masses too often is of no concern. If
they possess three cents worth of in
fluence it is for sale to the highest
bidder. The Candidate who is willing
to pay their purchase price is the
candidate who receives their support
The political quacks have no pro-
gram. Whatever act the returns
from which, adds to their personal
gain receives consideration.
Spittoon politicians are opposed to
any movement that makes for united
strength, organized effort. They are
always for those conditions that
places them in the position of media
tors to the boss politician for the
rank and file. 1t assumes the pro-
portion of Righteousness to see the
colored people so distinctly separated
during campaigns, and at the same
time admonishing them to separate
their votes. Is it not pathetic to see

ROSENWALD ADMITS JIMCROW
ASSOCIATION failure

Julius Rosenwald the wealthy Chi
cago Jew who has given so much to
organize segregated Young Mems
"Christian" Associations admitted in
a recent speech that the jimcrow as
scciations had not "done as much in
making the relations between whites
and blacks as expected"
1t is impossible to put a class in
an inferior place and expect others to
respect the degraded group. 1t can't
be done, vet Rosenwald is offering
more money for Jimcrow "Christian"
Associations.
The Cleveland Gazette says:
"The establishment of Chicago's
"jim crow" Y. M C. A. was the
greatest cause of that city's segre-
cation. julius Rosenwald, who con-
tributed $4,000 toward the one
Chicago now has, is reported to have
made a similar offer-to give another
5000 providing rs thousand dollars
are again subscribed for another "jim
crow" Y. M. c.. A. There are always
prejudiced and thoughtless white peo-
pie who will contribute to "jim crow
cur people and apparently there are
always resigning and other "jim
crow Negroes who want jobs or
something that stand ready to grab
such offers and even lesser ones.
Lord, have mercy!"
Now comes Lawrence G. Phipps,
Colorado's United States senator to
demonstrate his interest in the well
fare and progress of the race" And
the Denver Star has this to say:
"Hon. Lawrence C. Phipps, Colo
radios senior United States senator,
has again demonstrated his interest
in the welfare and progress of the
Race and a willingness to help any
worthy cause, by substantial con-
tribution of $4,000 to ward the build
ing fund of the new colored Y. M. G.

honor for the race, a place of refine
ment and Christian influence, the gift
of the large-hearted senator becomes
far more than a benefaction.
simultaneously with the announce
ment of the above gift, comes word
that Senator Phipps also made con-
tribution of $4,000 to the Rocky
Mountain Relief Association, an or
ganization having for it's object the
purchase and erection of a sanitarium
for colored tubercular patients.
This organization, which has many

gift of the senator as an incentive,
it is now certain that another much
needed institution will soon be ours,
These gifts truly place Mr.. Phipps
among the country's big men who
are willing to aid the efforts of a
struggling group and who know men
and women by worth only. He has
long been a generous contributor to
the N A. A. P. and has consistently
supported its principles and the
things for which it stands"

Cleveland Gazette and also say

the colored people have been listening
to sermons, lectures, speeches and
exhortations from white people telling
them how to make of themselves good
and useful citizen. 1t is now time
for the colored people to tell the
white people just how they should
act, in order that they, the colored
people, be given an opportunity to
follow this advice. No one better

advantage, and curse of being use

THE AUDITORIUM

The citizens of Birmingham have in one way or another expressed themselves so forcefully for the building of large audi torium without delay and with the funds in hand that the city commission would be very unwise in permitting the smoke screen that has arisen about the contract situation to divert them from going ahead with the con- struction of the auditorium The plans may be imperfect and it is not unwise to accept the suggestion of the Chamber of Commerce that an expert examine them before contract is finally signed. This should not entail more than ten days delay. A skilled archi- tect should be able to pass on plans in that time. There is no reason why the audito- rum should not be under construction in less than sixty days.
 The commission is not bound to consider the objections raised as to lack of highly or namental features in the plans. The audito- rum is primarily for utility and not for ornament. The people want it large because they wish it to accommodate large gather ings of citizens, to stage expositions and ex- hibits of homemade products, such annual events as the Community Christmas tree and the like. With care for acoustics the pro

posed building, which is to have seating capacity of 5000, can be so constructed as to enable an entire audience of that size to hear the speakers. The auditorium should not be permitted to become mixed with civic center dreams or become a leverage for pro- motion of real estate values. It is for ser vice. The people have unequivocally and several times said that it should be built now, built with the money in hand and built large, the majority expression favoring 5000 to 10000 capacity. The commission has undertaken to carry out the will of the people and should not be swerved from that course. That all the details connected with the plans, the contracts and construction should pass busiHeslike judgment and in- spection goes without saying.
