A MESSAGE FROM ST. LOUIS
The Right Woman in the Right Place,
Mrs. George Galian

Mrs. Geo. Galian bears the proud
distinction of being the committee
woman Of the 23rd Ward Republican
Organization at the present time and
known by her associates as a faithful
worker for the best interest Of the
Organization, and as its committee
woman is entitled to a full measure Of
the credit for the excellent and grow
ing conditions Of the organization.
Mrs. Galian has done much toward
increasing the membership of the Re-
publican party in St. Louis, Mo.
The effect on men and women work
ers for the Republican party is far
reaching in future" to know facts and
to work in shaping them into concrete
form in committees That is real worl;
for the committee woman, who has
much love for the Republican party.
Always a Republican; always in the
party conferences; always at party or
ganizations; because she believes in
them as the fundamentals of the Re
publican form Of government.
Her name is very prominent in re-
ligious and social circles, and was
fighting for women's suffrage before
the average woman realized that such
would be accomplished. Mrs. Galian
is charter member and former in
structor of the Y. w. c. A; also,
manager Of the colored group in the
bond issue campaign, which means
much to our greater St. Louis.

Silence Talks

IF the defendant made the repre-
sentations as to her color with the
intent to induce the plaintiff to enter
into the marriage without which he
would not have married her, that is
sufficient to warrant you in finding
fraud and this applies to silence or
concealment as well as to direct mis-
representation.
Suppression Of the truth, when
there is a duty to speak, may, under
certain circumstances, be classed as
fraudulent concealment.
Under such circumstances it must
appear that the defendant had reasons
to know that the plaintiff was ignorant
Of the fact as to her color"
"You must take into consideration
the fact that the plaintiff saw the col
ored father" Justice Morschauser said.
THAT he saw the colored brother-in-
law, but that he saw and knew the
surroundings of the defendant and
that he saw the defendants body.
THE plaintiff bears the burden Of
proof to establish the charges he made
against the defendant"
Justice Morschauser began his in
structions to the jury by outlining the
seven questions Of fact which the jury
will pass upon. They were
/. AT the time OF tbe marriage Of
the parties was the defendant colored
and Of colored blood?
Justice Morschauser instructed the
jury to answer yes" to this question,
as the fact had been admitted by the
defendant at the outset OF the trial.)
2. Did the defendant before the
marriage BY silence conceal from the
plaintiff the fact that she was Of col
ored blood?
3. Did the defendant before the
marriage represent to the plaintiff that
she was not Of colored blood?
4. Did the defendant practice said
concealment or make said representa-
ton with the intent thereby to induce
the plaintiff to marry her?
5. Was the plaintiff by said con
cealment or by said representations or
BY both induced to marry the de-
lendant2

The tight-heads, in England and in

sermon preached recently by Dean
lingo Of St Paurs Cathedral. The

He'll were geological EXPRESSIONS that
can find no place in the geology of to-
day That is, there 'ain't no such

Heaven or He'll. The die-hard breth-

the worst blow Of all was the follow

camel's back How conner" they
cried. The Dean may not know il
but he is hitting at profits as we'll as
prophets. Many of the preachers are
more interested in profits than in the

trary notwithstanding. But the Dean
may yet live to see the masses awaken

and heroic in this Negro dying in the
cause Of beloved France, where
Liberty" Equality" and "Frater-

more than sounding brass. Perhaps
this man Cole felt that he owed a debt
to France for permitting him, for the

reminded Of the time that a French
officer asked me why there was a
Negro division in the American army.
At first | told him that I did not
know. And then I explained that in
my country about SO per cent of the
people were uncivilized, ignorant bar
barians. About 10 per cent were
downright savages. This officer, with

The first thing Clarence Darrow
knows he will be getting a warning
from the Kluxers that his time is up.
He is getting too frisky in making in
tercession for Negroes in the courts.
Now he has interested himself in the
case Of colored boy, in Chicago, ac-
cused of killing a white boy Darrow
was successful in having the boy sent
to a home for delinquent boys. He
goes there to be made into a useful
citizen instead Of to the penitentiary
to be made into a Gerald Chapman.
Now the Kluxers would rather that
the boy 60 to Joliet and learn to be
frst-class bad man. Then they
could have lynching and fimsy ex-
cuse to talk about Americanism and

President Coolidge has been asked
to make Perry Howard behave him
self and attend to his duties in the
Department Of Justice | don't be-
lieve that the President will interfere.
Perhaps he will | have heard a
rumor that Perry went to the Pullman
Company and told them that he con-
trolled the Preston News Agency and
that he could get The Camerman and
the Manager Of the Service to run
Pullman propaganda in their fight
with the porters' projected union. Of
course, there was to be a considera-
ton for Perry from the Pullman folks.
Not having any documentary evidence
in the matter no one can say for sure
that this little Negro did such a thing.
However, it sounds like him. A man
who would do as he has done on vari-
Gus occasions, can be expected to do
anything despicable that comes to
mind. Negroes like Pats Perry
have been doing things like this for
fifty years or more That is the way
that they get their graft from white
people. They are continually at it,
telling some white politician or cor
poration that they control some Negro
newspaper, group or institution. OF
course, they don't control any of these
things, but the whites don't know it.
