*v? , THE RACE QUESTION E IN CONGRESS Before the adjournment of Congress the race question was introduc- ?1 ed by Mr. Madden, of Illinois, by at- t tempting to amend the bill to rejru- J late commerce by adding this amend- t ment: t That it shall be unlawful for any 1 carrier to make or give undue or un- a reasonable preference or advantage v to any particular person or subject I '< any particular person to anv undue Is prejudice or disadvantage in any res- > pect whatsoever. ) Hon W. F. Stevenson, of South i Carolina, opposed the amendment, t making a vigorous protest against it in the following remarks: i I regret that this question has been ( injected here. Uut it might as well ( be met at one time as another. The } people of the Southern States, in so far as I know, have legislation for | separate coaches for the white and ( colored peoptle.and have provided that | equal accommodations should he provided for both. In so far as the law of South Carolina is concerned, I v have the honor to have drawn, in v conjunction with another, the amend- | ments to the separate-coach act ( which has been the statute that has ( been on the statute books of that j State ever since 18I)'.t, and it provides for absolute equal accommodations ( for both races and there is no dis- | crimination against either one. The gentleman from Illinois (Mr. j Madden) has manifested considerable ( "agony" about the colored soldier. I want to know what the gentleman's j State of Illinois has done for the col- ( ored soldier. A few weeks ago they y had a race riot in the city of Chica K". wncnce me jjenileman conies, ami they shot down colored men from one end of the city to the other, as reported by the press, the race lire- , bein>r absolutely drawn between , whites and blacks in the contest which it took the State troops to stop. I challenge*- the p'o^Hleman to , charge anything like that to the poo- pie of any Southern State. A few weeks u^o in this city, and by the same spirit, the same thintr was done, and in the last few days in the city of , Wilmington, Del., the same tiling was done. Now, T admit that occasionally, in violation of law, the people of the South take a man who is red handed from committing an unmentionable crime and harp; him to a lamp-post, but they do not betrin to shoot all Decolored people in the community for the reason that one individual has violated the law. Now, 1 want to ask the gentleman's attention to the record of South Carolina and Chicago and Illinois, with respect to the colored soldiers. At the last session of the Legislature of South Carolina, without any blare of trumpets or foaming at the mouth about the colored soldier, the State of South Carolina appropriate) $100,000 to liuiM a moniorial buildinp to the colored soldiers who represented South Carolina on the fields of their country and provided for it to he put upon Ihe grounds of the pre at edueational institution that South Carolina maintains for thuin, and ereated a commission to appeal to the white men of South Carolina to suhs<*rihe voluntarily another $100,Olid, to make it $200,000; and today that cause is heinp successfully placed before the white people of South Carolina and they arc responding with their usual liberality arid with their usual patriotism. Now, has the pent lemon's State done anything of that kind? No. They propose to pay the colored soldier by a political, demapopical attempt to stir up race hatred in a country where we have abolished it because of our proper dealinp with the race question. And, Mr. Chairman, whenever the gentleman fr'?m Illinois prevail upon his Slate to place the colore#! man of Illinois on an eipiality with the colored man of South Carolina in the recognition of his patriotism ami representation upon the battle liehls, then it will he lime enough for him to begin to come down and assail tiepeople of South Carolina and iy, ' "You are discriminating against the i colored man." It is gratifyi/.g to know that the Madden arm-mlnc-nt wa defeated hy ( a vote of I i 1 noes to I A yeas. GLAD TOTESTIFY i Say* Watoga Lady, "A* To What Cardui Has Done For Me, So i A* To Help Other*." 1 Watoga, W. Va ?Mrs. S. W. Gladwcll, Of this town, says: "When about 1!? years of age, J suffered greatly . . . Sometimes i would po a month or on/i i n-m terrible headache, backache, and bearingdown pains, ar.d would just drag and had no appetite. Then ... it would last . . . two weeks, and was so weakening, nd my health was awful. My mother bought me a bottle of ?< Cardui, and I began to improve after taking the first bottle, so kept it up till I took three ... I gained, and was well < and strong, and I owe it all to Cardui. | I am married now and have 3 children . . . Have never had to have a doctor for female trouble, and just resort to Cardui a if I need a tonic. I am glad to testify to i1 what ?t has done for me, so as to help " others." t If you are nervous or weak, have head- 6 aches, backaches, or any of the other ailments so common to women, why not 1 jive Cardui a trial? Recommended by many physicians. In use over 40 years. Begin taking Cardui today. It may (to vary medicine you need. NC-iao yuim.ppuw ;'rv IARS THROW OPEN DOORS 1 IN OLD NEW ORLEANS Federal Judge Foster has handed \ lown a decision in New Orleans that he war ended when Congress and the Senate adjourned without rejecting \ he Peace Treaty. With this dedsion he also granted an injunction ? igainst the revenue department, retraining its officers from intefering vith the sale of intoxicating beveriges by dealers who had the necesiary licenses. This happened on No- v, member 2<>th, the day before Thanks- ^ riving. As a consequence every bar t] n the city was thrown open and all ( he famous restaurants of that fam- g >us old city served Thanksgiving dinlers such as made them renowned be- f, 'ore the drouth. The saloons start- S| d ofl* selling whiskey at fifty cents n i drink, hut were warned by District ^ Vttorney Mooney that if they com- c lined on this high price he would irosceute them for profiteering. ^ 'rices then droppe<l to 25 cents for r -amnion or bar whiskey, 25 cents for ase goods and 50 cents for imported ^ Scotch and gin. New Orleans has ufReienl liquor of all kinds except ^ jeer to last until .January in, when irohibition noes into effect. The ^ nternel r? venue collector and the Jnited States District Attorney are ^ ushintr the case to the Supreme 'ourt. Should that court reverse luduc Foster, the saloon doors will j lam to with a hanjr and dealers will / >e prosecuted. Meantime they are j akinn the chance and New Orleans j ind the stranger within her nates lave lost no time in quenching a hirst that had been accumulating ii n uncc duly. MEXICO EXECUTES ANGELES h ti General Kelippe Aru'eles was exe- s uted last week by the Carranza ^ government in Mexico. A court mar- 1 ial i.f lour of C'arranza's officers ' found him guilty of rebellion and 1 sentenced him to be shot. The i.xecu- f ion was promptly carried nut. Gen. 1 Angeles was one of the few jrreat ;e-n Mexico had ever produetod. lie was a military genius and in the ' world war had served France, both as j in expert in military strategy and in ' irtillery. lie perfected tin- 7'i-milli- ' metre I'un, which served the allies ;-o ' 1 well. After the war he retired to his ranch in Texas, but joined forces ' with Gie bandit Villa, with the avow- . cd intention of liberating the downtrodden of his people and of stopping the Mexican outrages anninst Americans in Mexico. He was an avowed frit ml of America and with almost 1 his last words deprecated the growing chasm between the two countries.
