Olll INVENTORS.
We are not often reminded of
those among us who nave gone In-
to the Btudy of applied science and
given great service to mankind by
the machines which they have in-
vented. A recent publication from
the U. S. Patent Office sets forth
a record which is highly creditable.
These inventions run the whole
gamut from Banneker'a clock in
1754 to Forten's invention of ap-
paratus for managing sails Includ-
ing Lewis's invention of a ma-
chine for picking oakum; Henry
Blair's patents on a corn harves-
ter; William B. Purvis's patents
on electric railways a fountain
pen magnetic car . balancing de-
vice etc.; Dickinson's patent for
playing the piano; Terrell's patents
for the improvement in valves of
steam engines; Benjamin F. Jack-
son's invention of different- im-
provements in heating and lighting
devices and a controller for a trol-
ley wheel; Charles V. Kieckey'g in-
ventions including a device for reg-
iHtering the call on a telephone and
and detecting the unauthorized use
of that instrument; Granville
Wood' inventions; ithe Elijah- Mc-
Coy inventions and the Inventions
of John Ernest Matzeligerfi includ-
ing the first machine that performed
automatically the operations Invol-
ved in attaching soles to shoes.
Then there are the latter-day
and wartime inventions Including
war bombs machine and air-craft
guns explosive bullets submarines
and diving suits.
They provide another strong ar-
gument for our belief in our own
genius and talent and serve as en
couragement toward continued pro
gress in that direction.
Babe Ruth has established a new
world's record for baseball. Mayor
McSwiney has established a new re-
cord for failing in support of the
principle of freedom. Both are
worthy of the effort expended.
There haven't been any Negro
presidents yet but some of the most
efficient producers of wealth in
America have come from ..that
proup.
Never having been rich We are
unabie to say how happy a rich
man is. But we are an authority
on the state of mind of a poor one
Whr-n ilia state of Texas as a
whole equals the City of Dallas in
nliility to "do" thlnRS It will be
unsurpassed in America.

.n Fair will meet any Government

BEARDING THE SOUTHERN LION.
Those prejudiced hopefuls in Oklahoma City who expected
Senator Harding to side step the Jim Crow question as propound-
ed to. him by a Democratic daily of -that city must have been
sorely disappointed and chagrined at his ready answer to it.
For a presidential candidate such an utterance in a South-
ern state has been hitherto unknown and it is reasonable to sup-
pose that it was at least 'startling. It must have been highly so.
There is however one thing above all others which such a
declaration bids fair. to accomplish which has never before been
brought to pass. It will force those Southern Republicans who
have been able because of the absence of Negro issues as t such
in the national campaign to acknowledge their compliance with
the stand f the candidate upon them or in repudiating his
stand thus repudiate the party and acknowledge the fact that
they were in heart not real Republicans.
There' can be no doubt but that his saying that' the law
should apply to black and white alike and that the Negro under
the law. was the constitutional equal of any other .American cit-
izen will prove a veritable boomerang to "lily-whites" and their
pernicious doctrines of "a white man's party" and the elimina-
tion of thevblack man from party councils. The Issue is put
squarely up to them. -'..' '. .
Can there be any reasonable defense for their attitude?
Can anyone argue successfully that they in any way adhere' to
real Republican principles if the utterances of the candidate
chosen by national party ballot are to be taken as indicative of
what true Republican principles are?
It is our belief that such argument is impossible and we are
awaiting with much anticipation the re-action to this latest turn
given southern-Republican affairs by Senator Harding's speech-
There may be those among us who feel that the qualifying
statement coming after the declaration of complete equality of
Negroes and whites as far as the laws of America are concerned
was simply another indication of the trait ascribed to Senator
Harding by his critics of being unwilling to declare himself un-
equivocally on any question-
Senator Harding's qualifying statement was to the effect that
the races should not be forced by law to endure a relationship
distasteful to them and may be reasonably considered as provo-
cative of conjectures as to his meaning- One of them that he
favors equal accomodations and the maintenance of Jim Crow
laws with the separation which they bring and the satisfaction
which they produce to prejudiced minds. The other equally as
tenable that Jim Crow laws should not be maintained nor other
separate carriers- in that they are
er kind of citizens
wnatever nis meaning ana nowever it is taken by the gen-
eral public it is reasonable to suppose that its discussion may be
beneficial to our grottp in that it
our fight against the unbearable
laws as they are now administered imposed upon us.
Considered as a whole this expression coming from a .pros
pective president and delivered before' a typical southern audi
ence is amazing plain spoken and courageous.
It cements us more firmly in our belief that in interpreting
the principles of Republicanism Senator Harding uses his char-
acteristic fairness and honesty and is willing to acGord to every
man his deserts as the American spirit of fairness demands.
Certainly he has given the whole countrv both north and
south to know that his platform as enunciated by him in his ac-
ceptance speech is a reality and a conviction and that what he
considers just in Ohio and New York is equally just in Oklahoma
and Texas.
The general temperament of America does not lead us to
suppose that in the event of his election- there will be any start-
ing or astounding changes in the treatment accorded us here.
His convictions as set forth in his speeches however give us a
greatly increased hope that in our fight against the seemingly
unshakable prejudice and discrimination against us in the ad-
ministration of thevlaws our conception of justice will not ap-
peal to him as unreasonable all timed unworthy of notice or
impossible of satisfactory adjustment according to the constitution.-
- . .
He is making it a great pleasure to support him and we do
not in the hope of special consideration but in the belief that to
him we are a part of the American citizenry and as such are
due the inalienable rights'-to life liberty etc. as are others.
KU KLUX DEMONSTRATIONS
The history of the Ru Klux Man of reconstruction days as
told to members of the present generation of our group does not
give them any flattering idea of its ability" to function benefici-
ally in this day or time. And its recent public . demonstrations
the. necessarily recurring memories of its activity of by gone
days is likely to provoke a sentiment not of fear and certainly
not of respect. . -
The parents of the present generation many of them still
living can bear expert testimony as to its usefulness in a day
when might was right as far as the newly liberated slave was
concerned and rowdyism engaged in by the 'majority of the ex-
ponents of "supremacy" ( ?) was the symbol of law. Its revival
as evidenced recently cannot but appeal to all fairminded people
as an attempt to throw present day obedience to law and recog-
nition of authority back to the days of semi-savagery and obed-
ience to bestial propensities.
Its name even though its purpose and ways of pursuing its
desired end and object are changed will cause its unfortunate
association with a program of exploitation; which in the light of
present day enlightenment and progress we had considered as
past into an oblivion from which it could not be profitably re-
called. - ( i i
We as a group maintain 'that an attempt at its recall can
not but further endanger the progress and advancement in sec-
tional equity and prosrjerity so laboriously made in the past half
century especially in the south and we do not believe that the
more fairminded men and women among our neighbors can con-
scientiously countenance its reappearance.
' It is opposed to national progress.
It countenances that against which America's saner ' influ-
ences are bending their utmost efforts mob rule. .
The manner in which it reappears gives ample reason for
the belief that its followers would inaugurate again thy methods
usea m us iormer operations.
And such methods da not
land.
Tliese are reconstruction davs it is true but the nrnhlems
now confronting America are national rather than sectional.
The remedies as prescribed by experts both north and south
demand the constant close and efficient - effort of all classes-
races and kinds of law abiding American citizens. There are no
points of similarity to be found in the comparison of American
ideals and Ku Mux practices.
The purpose'of this clan as outlined in its charter is to pro-
mote among other things American ideals and chivalry t
It is generally understood that American ideals demand giv-
ing to every man a just fair and impartial chance to do his level
best for American progress.
The quality of disposition .gained by pursuing such an ideal
develops '.true chivalry. . .
Chivalry as such recognizes no class as supreme except in
accomplishment and "reigns of terror" have no place in its prac-
tices. . ...
In the light of our knowledge of the actual practices at this
clan we are led to feel that it opposes rather than favor chivalry
and American ideals. . . ' . .
We arc prone and honestly so to look with extreme regret
upon the reappearance 6f .such an organization not primarily be-
cause we do not feel that the sentiment which it seeks to foster
exists in the minds of a certain percentage of our neighbors.
We regret it rather because we are both to part with a supreme
confidence in the better thinkers of the Southland who as moul-
ders of public opinion should make its growth improbable and
render its practices impossible. .
It should be discouraged. It has the earmarks of lawlessness.
Its existence threatens the prosperity and mutual well being of
all classes of citizens.
Some educated folks lark a great deal of being intelligent.

THE JAPANESE
Thai the relations of Japan and 'the United States are considered to
be more serious in Japan than in this country is evidenced by the Resolu-
tions cabled by the American Associations of Tokio and YCioroama to Sec-
retary Colby. There have of late months also come frequent accounts of
meetings la Japan of editorial comment and of statements by government
officials all of them revealing a state of mind on that side of the water
which does not exist here and a general interest in . the subject not found
in America except on the Pacific Coast ApparcntlJr the initiative act on
the California ballot denying to Japanese the right to own land and con-
fiscating land they have already purchased though at full value will be
carried by a large majority In November. This will wound the whole Jap-
anese nation in their deepest sensibilities. The Jingoes with which Japan
is blessed as well as this country talk of war In spite of the hopefulness
of success in a conflict with a nation of such superior resources in men
and materials as the United States. A proud nation like the Japanese does
not always count the certainty of success as the determining factor In de-
ciding upon war. Naional honor is held the supreme consideration. It
Is too bad that this matter has reached a point where a considerable num-
ber of Japanese people talk war and the long-existing sentiment of regard
for the United States so general in Japan is fading away. Greater appre-
ciation of the gravity of the situation and more effort to solve the problem
diplomatically should have .been manifested at Washington. Its solution
will be an inheritance of neglect by the incoming administration if it
does not reach an acute status sooner.
Japanese statesmen have frequently declared that they do not desire
to force Immigration of their countrymen upon us nor do they insist that
those who come here shall have any privileges -we want to deny them
provided only that we apply the same regulations and restrictions to alians
of other nations. It Is discrimination to which they object especially (hat
sort of discrimination which places them racially in a class Inferior to
other civilized people such as those of Europt. This becomes an unbear-
able attack upon the honor of a people proud and sensative in the highest
degree to which they feel that they cannot submit and maintain their place
In front rank of the nations. The problem to be solved is to protect our
Pacific Coast States from the evil consequences of ssociation of unassiinlla-
able races in such a way as to save the honor of the excluded race. Both
candidates have assured the California people they sympathize with their
attitude of self-protection and will endeavor to adjust the matter diplomat-
ically but in the meantime a crisis may be precipitated which will have
some other equation than that of battleships. Globe Democrat

THE SOUTHERN' DEMOCRATS IDEA OF DEMOCRACY.
If the majority of the white people of the South which politically'means
Democrats have any idea or . conception of democracy it is undiscoverable
in it3 concrete or abstract form. The intelligent -accepted meaning of a
democracy Is government by the people a government In which the su-
preme power is In the hands of the people and directly exercised fcy
them; through a system of representation and delegation of these powers;
through a constitution and equitable laws to more effectively execute the
will of the people. A democrat is one who adheres to or promotes these
principles. -The . acceptability of the above definition is an exclusion of
the white man of the South beyond the pale.
ii is self-evident that in such government the intelligence of the peo-
ple is of first Importance; to the end that it. may exercise the governmental
function for the equal beneficence - to the whole people. For nearly fifty
years the whole s.avage power of the South has been directed tothe deg-
radatibn and enslavement of one-half of its population in numbers and
ninety percentum of its potential economic wealth. As a result it has re-
mained ill-governed poor ignorant and unprogressive. The pointed say-
ing of the late '.Booker T. Washington seems in this case as true as
holy wit: "The only way to keep a man in a ditch who desires to get
out a to get dqwn lri the ditch yourself and hold him there." Try as it
may the South has been unable to hold the Negro Race in the dlic h.
The race is climbing out and leaving many of its would be captors in
the- ditch alone. It seems that upon the question of the Negro'i Citizen-
ship RightSj in full meaning of this term the white South Is a ravins
maniac and should be placed in a straitjacket. It should be clearly un-
derstood by the . Negro that the surrended by agreeirlent indifference or
otherwise of a Single right dtft him as a citizen destroys the power of
effoctlvoly enforcing the remainder. ' -
' In the adoption of the Nineteenth Amendment to the Federal Consti-
tution the position taken by thfc Republican National Convention at Chicago
on the question of lynohing and the pronouncement of "the Republican can-
didate 'for President upon thu question of the Negro as a citizen we see
the opening guns of the battle for the Negro's rights as a citizen and a
man. Let..us to the last individual answer" the call.
It is now as it has been for years the uppermost thought in the minds
of the Southern Bourbon to be able to ride to power upon his horse-wind
of abuse of the Negro whose vote he steals with impunity. The Southern
"Statesman'' vie with each other as to who can use the harshest terms
the most savage abuse and imagine and circulate' the most absurd propa-
ganda as to who shall win the nomination and election. t is a wonder
to us why they do this why they are allowed to do so by laws of the
Stateagainst peech or exhibitions
citizens. The most surprising however to us is why the Negro in these
districts permit themselves to be attacked abused and libeled every elec-
tion. There is no other race of people on the face of the earth that would
have Btood it so long; nor for that
safety of the Englishman going to and fro through Ireland on every elec-
tion abusing the Irishman; proclaiming as from the housetop the law
he intended to Introduce In. Parliament to disfranchise and enslave the
people of Ireland. Or even of the Turks providing for the further op-
pression of the Arabs or Armenians. Would there be no "balm in Gilead"
to heal such a wound? The Negro will not always countenance these in-
sults and the BOoner an 'example is made or an unforgettable warning is
given the better off the race will be in asserting its manhood.

. PATLG A COLOR TAX J
. Statements made in an editorial in one of the magazines for October
based upon information gleaned through careful investigation in Chicago
Kansas City New York and Detroit will come 'as a revelation to many
possibly the majority of the peolpe of the United States. It will be a shock
to those who have complimented themselves as the possessors of all tht
facts essential to clear ocmprehenslon of words and acts which at intervals
burst through the conventional social crustwith- an explosive sound. Com-N
mentlng upon what the author designated as "The High Cost of Being a
Neio" the- author charges that in the cities named it costs the Negro
about twice as much to live as the white .man pays. "By perveTted social
convention bombs and riots he is forced into certain territory where he
is blackjacked out of his earnings" is the unpolished indictment handed
up against four of the largest industrial communities in the United States
The Negro tenant is compelled to pay twice the white man's price for a
sheltering roof and in neighborhood stores of all kinds investigation has
shown that the Negro consumer is charged 50 per cent mo-e as a color tax.
This cuts down hi's net earnings if he has net earnings 50 per "ent b;low
that of the white man who earns the same wages and lives in" the same
vicinity. ' . '
. Here Is a case . which" should be gravely discussed by officials of all
grades and these social volunteers
sporadic uplift in any or all of its various forms to abate obvious evils.
There may be no official way of reaching this particular' situation and
remedying the injustice In it. Perhaps there is not since it presents no
individual claims for formal official functioning a circumstance which may
account for the additional tinge of bitterness In the minds of Its Negro
victims. If the white man who is inclined to indifference in his observations
of the status of the Negro citizens will try to imagine himself socially pen-
alized first by regional segregation for which he is mometarily penalized
by a double charge for house rent and 60 per cent of the supplies to bu
domestic budget he may be able to get a better view of what is reln?
in the Negro's mind. It is more than a negligible injustice to the Negro -it
is unworthy of Americans a lowering of our concepts of everyday ethicr.)

Dear Sir:
i In your article published in the
Dallas News on the 16th Inst- in
reference to the article of Wm. M.
McDonald and the differences in the
Republican Party or Texas you
seem to be under the impression
that the Black and Tan faction is
composed exclusively of Colored vo-
ters and the only cause leading up
to the factional difference was
brought about by the desire of a
few to eliminate the Colored vo-
ters from participating In Party
conventions when in fact the dis-
turbing element of the Republican
party In Texas is not the Colored
man. It is an element of white men
who desire to get charge of the
party machinery or organization for
selfish purposes. They want the of-
fices. The principles of the Party
count for nothing. They hate all
white men who wish to stand for
the principles .of the party and
seek to drive them o'ut and dis-
credit them in the communities
where they live. ' They raifie the
color Issue and appeal to. race pre-
judice in order to draw attention
from their main and true objects.
They vote the Democratic ticket at
each election except every four
years when they get very active
in the Republican Party and de-

publican Convention is a farce.
With them bull dozing usurpation
of party machinery fraudently de-
cide all contests and rascally de-
clare the results. Thirty men at
San Antonio on the 24th day of
May acting as a Btate committee
unseated over 300 duly elected dele-
gates and put 65 or 70 counties on
the temporary roll which they
knewj had held no legal County
Convention and by thene high-
handed methods elected themselves
as delegates to the Republican Na-
tional Convention. They fooled the
National Committee perhaps but
they cannot fool the real republican
voters of Texas and if the Demo-
cratic Election Judges will give the
Black and Tan Republicans a fair
and square deal which I believe
they will we shall poll Five votes
