NEGRO VOTERS DISTURBING ELEMENT
The announcement of the dissatisfaction among
the negro voters throughout the country brought on
I by the failure of the republican leaders to make
| good their promises in the distribution of patronage
f is causing no little concern among republican party
leaders. *
L ■ A meeting of negroes from many sections of the
country was held recently in Chicago at which time
L resolutions condemning the republican party and its
; leaders for failure to give to the negro a reasonable
number of appointments from the “pie counter” and
' their failure to endorse the republican party and its
' principles is causing much uneasiness in republican
ranks. It is believed that before the republican par-
ty can hope to swing the negro vote in line in the
state of Illinois, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and
other states that it will be necessary to satisfy "Cuf-
fy” with some degree of recognition in a most sub-
’ stantial way. The recent exodus of the negro from
the south has increased the negro vote in many of
these states to large proportions and it is a matter
with which the republicans must wrestle in order to
harmonize the white and black element of that
party. It makes little difference to the democrats
which way these negroes vote. In the states to which
they have migrated the republican party has al-,
ready a large majority of the voters and the 'addi
tion of the negro vote would only incrense that___
majority'without adding any additional electoral
strength! Their departure from the south will cause
the republican vote in this section of the country to
lie reduced largely without the least effect upon the
democratic party or its electoral vote.
■ The Springfield, (Mass.) Republican.is quite.ap
prehensive 6f the outcome in the convention next
year and. predicts that there is danger ahead for the
' republicans from this clement fearing that many o'f
the negroes will go over to the democrats in these
£2S§fe5.“ we do riot fes'leve that the- negro vote will
cut much figure -one way or the other. •
• The south will remain solidly democratic while
the north will split up just as it has always done'hv
respective of the negro vote. However, If the ne-
- pro vote in Ohio and 1 Indiana should go to the demo
crats, it would make certain of these states falling
in 'ino for the democratic nominee, which would re
sult in the nomination of a democrat.
■ There Is much .peculation over the grievances of
r tho negro In northern states and it may be that for
once, the negro will realize and see for himself that
the republicans care little for him outsldo of his suf-
frric . When they have used him, then he is dls-
mirsed until another election and so on as it has
been since the negro was given hts franchise. A
brighter day is dawning In this country and the
sooner the negro Is convinced that hfs best friends are
among the white people of the south the bettor off
lie will be. * !•*
SLANGILY SPEAKING
I like the bird who has the grit
To stick to things and never quit;
The duck mho plays the gamo In
Btr!* -*■*€/
And takes his bumpings jvllh a
smile;
The bimbo who will rlsek a chant
On bucking fate and circumstance
The gink who's kind anti merry-
hearted
But finishes what he has started;
The bimbo who will risk n chance
Won’t whine and growl nnd past
. the buck.
Along with thnt I like the blolce
Who’ll stake a fellow when ho'/
broke;
A geek who will not let success
Affect his simple humanness;
A berry who has learned to piny
And loaf at times along the way:
A Joe who, once he Is your friend
You can depend on to the end;
A 'baby built on such a plan
I think It’s safe to call n MAN.

Over ft. million and a hag dollar* wai (jfild to see
two men, Dempsey and Firpo, in a bout which lasted
only a few minutes. These men are eXfcUljmft busi-
m' .: men; they demonstrated their salesmanship and
their ability to capitalize their stock in trade for an
: enormous profit. It is human nature, however, to be 1
led into blue-sky schemes and pay the price regard-
leas of value. How many business men would have
placed such large sums of money as it took to stage
'« fight In a legitimate advertising proposition or
evi a invested in stock in some manufacturing con
cern which would not only earn dividends on the
amount invested, but would give employment to
large numbers of laboring and office people. From
c\«,y state in the union large delegations paid rail
road fare to New York, hotel bills, a big price for
an admission ticket besides the incidental expenses
which arise on such trips and on such occasions. Is
it right to encourage such money-making schemes
from which no good comes to the country or to those
who are responsible for the success of such under-
i 1118 true 'the promoters and the principals

POon to the nation for the few to prof it JtSie expense '
of the general public.
Ifey* believe in progress and advanced theories for
tin. betterment of tho country in I commercial and
civic lines and in the improvement of the morals of
l&rcMty, but for the life of us, we can’t see a re
deeming feature which the beastly prize fighters
bring to the advancement and betterment of our na
tion. However, there is no question but that a large
percentage of the public is sold on prize fighting,
even more so than on any other commercial proposi
tion which may bring to them'profitable returns on
their investments.
