Strange, passing strange, are some
of the interpretations of democracy as
set forth by some of our politicians.
Now ro m eth into the limelight a man

'e n te t h that no teacher shall be al
lowed to eat, drink or clothe herself
out of governm ent funds, if while she
is teaching, she shall perchance utter
any idea that the governm ent of any
other country is better than th at of
the U nited States. He goeth still fur

W here, oh where has that part of
the constitution gone which gave to
us as a fundam ental right, free
thought and free speech?
Will it
ever r e t u r n ’ Nay, it will not, as long
as we send such m aterial as J. W. Si

appropriate sufficient funds to have
an exhaustive analysis made of his
brain after his death so th at science
may determ ine just what nerve gan

from such dem onstration s in the halls
of Congress.

I t is hardly w orth while during this
season of the year to point out or to
talk about abuses which are going on.
In vacation time, people's minds as
well as their bodies are being given a
rest. But an item in the papers in
the account of the Mary Pickford ab
duction case now going on in Los
Angeles should receive at least a
word from those who know anything
about the third degree. W e are told
that it is no longer perm itted in any
of police systems. W e are only told
that infamous lie. It is a practice
that obtains in nearly every jail and
police station in the country As long
as we place the control of our police
systems in the hands of cheap poli
ticians, we will have this outrageous
abuse going on
It is a living re
minder of the old Spanish inquisi
tion. but instead of the ironscrews
and instrum ents of to rtu re of those
days, we have the heavy policeman’s
shoe, the stron g muscles that can
twist and break
Oh. we have them
— that's the way to secure confes
sions! As long as we elect district
atto rn ey s on the num ber of convic
tions they secure; as long as we rate
policemen by the num ber of arrests
they make, ju st so long will we have
the third degree. Justice for the ac
cused! W h y, Justice has been bound
and gagged so long by our modern
police m ethods that she is totally
blind and has lost the pow er of
speech.

New York, July 24. — T h e follow

N. A A. C. P is strictly observing
the request of the writer that she be

"I was informed from some of the
people in the N orth where to write
to and th at is what I am trying to
do. Now, sir, I want to say to you
like this: I believe that it is a law
in the state for men to be governed
by and it looks like to me that the
white man might abide by tbe law, to
some anyway
But they d o n ’t here.

for his money that he had worked

was a war there at ------ and talk
about killing all the colored people
around there, which did not do nor
say a word about the killing of the

them to the farm w ithout a trial, al
though they did not do anything but
try to protect them selves to keep the
agent from whipping them up. And
they just take them up and sent them
to the farm. And it is too bad to
think how some of these white peo

is making the white man's living and
they treat them like dogs.

not sit on the ceiling.
H eating with gas appears to be the
only way on earth that you can m ain
tain a tem perature with a properly
designed furnace and an even heat
distribution between the ceiling and
the floor of one-half to one degrees
with any degree of outside tem p era
ture. T h a t m eans th at the air is put
into that room in a p rop er way.
V ou can go into the average coal-
heated home today, and you will see
women and girls sitting on their feet
to keep warm in an upholstered chair,
and they are the ones th at stay there
all day while the men are active in
in office and more or less co m fo rt
able.

FALSE R EPO R T
A ru m o r is going the rounds that
the editor of T he Advocate endorses
VIro. Jo hnson's action in drawing the
•olor line at his restaurant. W e de
nounce the report as false. T h e Ad
vocate and all its staff, have always
steadfastly stood against discrim ina
tion in every form, especially in busi
ness. And the editor believes more
than that, th at a colored man should
be the last person on earth to draw
color lines.
