WILLIAM MONROE TROTTER
On April 7, William Monroe Trot
ter, editor of the Boston Guardian
and world-famous agitator for the
rights of the colored people, will be
50 years old
He has done more to fight jim
crowism and to inspire in the colored
people a determination to battle for
their rights than any living man of
the race. \n
He has impoverished himself, hav
ing spent the fortune left him by his
fathers, in financing his work for
freedom and justice for the colored
people
In the presence of this giant of
agitation, nine-tenths of the alleged
colored leaders appear as pigmies.
He has always stood for absolute
equality of citizenship The majority
of the "leaders" have compromised in
one way or another.
He deserves a FIFTY THOU
SAND DOLLAR FUND. His work
can not be estimated in dollars and
cents Even a small fund will show
that his work has been appreciated
and that the colored people are will
ing to pay for freedom.
The editor of every paper circulat
ing aranog the colored people ought
to boost Trotter in his editorial col
umns and also ^contribute to the
fifty-year fund.
THE APPEAL has already sent a
check for Five Dollars.

once your contribution to the Guard

A BLACK YEAR FOR COLORED
PEOPLE.
The first year of the Harding ad
ministration has been a distinct dis
appointment to right-minded, clear
thinging, far-sighted Christian Amer
icans, especially the colored people
who have been placed by fate under
the rule of the U. S. ^A.
The Filipinos, a colored race, have
been denied the freedom which was
solemnly promised them more than
twenty years ago. In 1921 there was.
a farcical "investigation" of condi
tions, by the man who had been picked
to rule the islands and whose policy
had evidently been decided upon be
fore the results of the "investigation"
had been received in the U. S. A.
A man with bitter racial prejudices
has been sent to govern the Porto
Ricans, the majority of whom are
colored people, who are anxious to
get from under the American yoke.
Santo Domingo wishes to be free
from jimcrow lule but the present
American regime hangs on without
rhyme or reason.
The man sent to "investigate" and
rule Haiti, is the very man who was
the ruler when the alleged outrages
took place. The Haitians are nearly
all black people and Catholics in re
ligion. Not satisfied with the "pa-
cification" outrages, the oppressors
have added insult to injury, by fore
THE MAN WHO DARES
A honor the man who in~the consci
entious discharge of his duty dares to
stand alone the world, with ignorant,
intolerant judgment, may condemn,
the countenances of relatives may be
averted, and the hearts of friends grow
cold, but the sense of duty done shall
be sweeter than the applause of the
world, the countenances of relatives or
the hearts of friends.Charles Sumner.

churches where separate masses are of brave Irishmen have laid down

city of Chicago in the U, S. A. The
population of Mexico is approxi
mately 70 per cent Indian 25 per
cent mixed white Indian and Negro
and not more than 5 per cent pure
Caucasian.
When the President was a candi
date he addressed a large delegation
of colored people and said, "Fellow
Americans, fear not, America will not
fail you." Coolidge, the candidate,
handed out seme very touching
phrases couchel in the purest Bos
tonese, in which he made a plea for
more rights for the colored people.
Elder Will H. Hays and his assist
ants, including the "jimcrow
paign bureau under Lincoln Johnson
and Perry Howard assured the peo
ple that the election of the Republi
can ticket would make this country
practically a territorial paradise.
It was not long after March 4,
1921, that it became evident that a
policy of segregation was being form
ulated for Americans of darker" hue.
Practically all of the -gimcrowism of
the Wilson regime have been con
tinued and many new wrinkles have
been added.
The speeches of President Harding
in the South last fall, in which he
practically read the colored people
out of the Republican party and in
effect endeavored to relegate them
to an inferior status in the social or
der were a veritable curse upon a
group of loyal citizens.
The administration has invaded the
states in which the colored had an
actual part in the party organizations
and has practically decreed that they
must "fall in behind the white man,"
or get out.
The administration started a K. K.
K. investigation which was suddenly
called off without any reason for the
action being given.
A few jimcrow offices have been
thrown out like bones to a horde of
hungry dogs and a few jimcrow col
ored men have been base~~enough to
accept them.
Mates, it has been a dark year for
the dark peoples.
The writer has been an active Re
publican for. more than fifty years
and still believes in the principles
laid down by Lincoln, Grant, McKin

EMMET'S EPITAPH
Having been convicted bv a Dublin
court of taking part in the Irislv Re
bellion of 1798, Robert Emmet, the
greatest Irish patriot, was duly exe
cuted by the British authorities.
He closed his last speech with these
words "I have but one request to
make on my departure from this
world. Let no man write my epitaph
for, as no man who knows my motives,
dare now vindicate them, let not pre
judice asperse them. Let mv tomb
remain unscribed, until other times
and other men can do justice to my
character. When my countrv shall
take her place among the nations of
the earth, then, and not until then, let
my epitaph be written."
More than one hundred years have
No doubt Emmefct's martyrdom did
much to keep burning the fires of na
tionalism which have at last made
Ireland a nation. To Robert Emmett
more than to any other one man may
the successful ending of the fight for
freedom be credited. Now let his epi
taph be written.
EGYPT IS FREE.
There is great rejoicing in Egypt.
Sultan Ahmed Fuad Pasha has an
nounced with due pomp and ceremony
that Egypt has become an indepen
dent and sovereign state and that he,
the Sultan, has assumed the title of
the King of Egypt. The British High
cam- Commissioner, Field Marshal Lord
Allenby, called at the Royal palace
after the ceremonies at Cairo and con
gratulated King Fuad, whom he ad
dressed as "Your Majesty." How has
this been accomplished?^ By cringing
and saying "We don't want this and
we don't want that and we don't want
the other"? No. The Egyptians de
fied Great Britain and refused to ac
cept anything except absolute free
dom. They fought for it, they died
for it and they got it!
CLOSE THE DOORS
When the Senate concurs-^as it
should doin the bill which has just
passed the House, the restricted im
migration law will be extended one
year from June 30 next. It is the in
tention of the House Immigration
committee to draft a permanent en
actment, but the subject is so intri
cate that -it rtt a A

hurriedly. The extra year will be
none too long
Until the war upset all Europe the
transatlantic liners were bringing as
many as a million aliens Jnto the
country in a year. The situation was
becoming serious. Hostilities broke
up the traffic, but after-the armistice
a perfect flood of emigrants was
headed this way. Restriction was a]
run the quota .These troubles have
been largely^~ove*cgme.. During^ the
eight months of-Jeratitn under the
law immigrants Have numbered 192,-
000. The limit for twelve months is
355,000,\ and it is^ not likely to. be
reached. So much" the better. The
United States needs a long rest from
its* efforts to assimilate newcomers,
and no matter wfiafr form permaifent
legislation may take, we agree with
Chairman Johnson, of the immigra
tion committee, that there will be no
desire to return^to the virtually un
limited entrance of foreign labor.
This melting-pot Jbusiness is all right
as a theory, but the country has got
to look out for itself and its doors
must be closed to strange men with
tsrange and violent doctrines. So
says the Philadelphia Inquirer and so
say we all.
RAPS AMERICAN CHRISTIANS
In a recent interview^ a Japanese
gentleman walloped the American
Christian hypocrites in these words
and hits the nail on the head:
"I am a Christian, but I cannot
reconcile the rules which Christianity
taught me with American practices.
Americans are overly suspicious and
narrow hearted. Our* nation is sup
posedly anti-Christian,- but we have
brbader hearts. 2-\f*
"American- missionaries .teach us
that all people are equal, so vtre wel
come Americans, let you travtl
throughout Japan, unmolested, buy
property, engage in business, and
give you equal rights'with our own
people when you are in Japan. You
do not practice in America what your
missionaries teach us we must do, if
we'want to be Christians. Even the
missionaries do not practice what
they preach when they return to
America."
Protest always pays. For some
time the people of -India have been
making "silent protest" against the
many injustices from which they suf
fer and now it seems that results are
about to be achieved. The govern
ment has "introduced several hills for
the repeal of nearly all of the repres
sive and restrictive laws now on the
statute books.
And because they have protested,
England will give independence to
the EgyptiansT Down South, Moton
et al are lauding the brutal people
who have stolen the rights of the col
ored people and restricted them to a
jimcrow place in the social scheme.
Representative, Fordney of Michi
gan has introduced a bill in the house
proposing a loan of $5,000,000 to Li
beria. The Liberians seem to want
the money and the-president was in
the U. S. last year making an appeal
for it but THE APPEAL believes it
to be a dangerous matter. If the
money is loaned and not promptly
paid it will? be, an excuse for the
United States to-'go in and take pos
session, and thus get ,a\foothold in
Africa, and then Uncle Sam will pro
ceed to mistreat and murder the Li
berians just as he did In Haiti. The
Liberians would do well to sidestep
that loan.
At a recent hearing of the house
committee on merchant marine,
Coxey of Coxey army fame, that $40,-
000,000 worth of idle vessels be
turned over to him and his associates.
One of the committee asked Coxey if
he had had any experience in oper
ating ships. "No, none," replied Mr.
Coxey. "No more than Mr. A. D.
Lasker." Lasker, the Jewish head of
the Shipping Board, was appointed
by the President, not because he had
experience, but because he had aided
Mr. Harding in his campaign for the

both races in Chicago, Bioommgton,
Indianapolis, St. Louis, Denver, Los
Angeles, Pasadena, Oakland, San
Francisco, Tacoma, Seattle and Spo

EMILE TREV1LLE HOLLY

Emile Treville Holley, a 17-year-

nominated for Annapolis by Repre

ceeds in being graduated from that
institution he will be the first member
of his race to do so.
Holley is willing, however, "to take
a chance to show what a colored boy
can do," and plans to go ahead with
his examinations. Several prominent
navy men have expressed the opinion
that Holley will find it easier than did
other members of his race who started
but dropped out. Commander Charles
A. Adams, U. S. N., retired, who was
in charge of recruiting in New York
during the war, declared:
"It would be much easier for a col
ored midshipman now than it used to
be. This boy may get along all right,
but he will have to use a lot of tact."
