IOWA STATE BYSTANDER. VOL, XV, No 22. EDITORIALS. In this weeks issue of the Iowa State Bystander we present to our readers the pictures of some of the leading politicians and statesmen of this country and state who are upon the stage of action at the present time, and are managing the Republican party. We also present to our readers the pictures of quite a number of the candidates who are asking your sufferage upon the Republican ticket, and we hope that our readers and voters will read this history and support them if they are in your district. This being the last issue just before the national election we thought it wise to give a great deal of our space to the politicians and their claims. We hope our rooster will be able to crow next week for the Grand Old Republican Party. The Negro voters on the third day of November will let President Roosevelt know; they will let Judge Taft know; they will let the Republican party know that their cup of gratitude is not empty and that their sense of justice and fair-play is as keen to-day as when during the days of the rebellion, they were too noble of heart to in jure defenseless women and children or to destroy unprotected property, but stood as faithful sentinels and watchful guardians until the Republican party declared SLAVEKY TO BE NO MORE. Walters! Ransom! Waldrom! Stand up and tell the Negro voters what message of hope and consolation you bring them from Bryan, Ben Tillman, Hoke Smith, or the Democratic party. If you have none, then as ministers of the gospel, go sweep yourselves in sack-cloth and sahes and do pennence for the base decision you are practicing on your people. DO YOUR DUTY AND On next Tuesday, we ask the voters to go to the polls early and do your duty and fear not. It is your duty as a good citizen looking to the best of your country to vote the Republican ticket. It your duty as a Colored man at least at this time to vote for the Republican party's success in both congressional, state and national elections. It is your plain duty to support the party who have given us what opportunities we now have, and hope to have in the future. I earnestly urge as a race lover, each true race man to do his duty and fear not. Do what your conscience teaches you to do, and do not be deceived by politicians who are not representing the true facts of the Republican party to you, for that party has always been your friend and is the best friend we have to-day. We gain nothing by leaving it, and certainly would lose much. And now in the name of humanity, in the name of justice, in the name of equal opportunity, in the name of progress and in the name of a free citizen I urge you to vote the Republican ticket straight and then you have done your duty to your family to the race and to your country. VERNON HERE. The second largest political rally in our city this fall was the one held last Monday evening, the Y. M. C. A., Auditorium was crowded even though it rained they came to hear the distinguished silver tongued orator, the Hon. W. T. Vernon. Mr. T. E. Barton, was the first speaker, he gave some sound advice, Mr. Vernon next spoke, he was at home on the platform and held the audience for more than two hours, and they hollowed to go on. The Enterprise band and the Saylor drum corpe furnished the music. Elsewhere see his speech. PUBLICAN TICKET. My dear voters will you permit me to give you a few reasons why we as Colored voters should vote. The straight. Republican ticket: list, because as a race we can't afford to desert the old ship that has carried us thus safely thus far; 2nd., the Republican party as a whole in days past, and is to day our best friend; 3rd., the Republicans have made it possible for us to be free citizens and to be allowed to vote. The Republican party has made it possible for us to have a Douglass, a Bruce, a Langston, a Lynch, a Lyons, an Alexander Clark, a Washington and Du Jois and a Vernon against the protests of the democratic party. The Grand Old Republican party has now this minute more than 13,000 Colored men employed to carry on this great nation of ours paying $8,000,000 annually the Republican party has nearly 12 Colored men on their ticket for PETER H. the state legislator, the democratic party has none regularly nominated. In short all that has been done for the Negro's uplift and encouragement, all of this they have done under democratic scoff and opposition. Then my dear voter, it is but right and just to help those who help us in the dark hour. It would be ingratitude not to do so. The Election of Judge Taft and Mr. Sherman is Practically Assured. The remarkable, almost sudden change of sentiment against Bryan and in favor of Judge Taft is almost unparalleled in the political history of this country. Judge Taft's personality and his frank and many defenses of his position while on the bench and the ease with which he has exposed the fallacies of Mr. Bryan has won for him thousands of votes. This transformation in sentiment of the American people from Bryan to Taft is not alone a tribute to the great and good man but is a display of the discriminating judgment on the part of the masses of the American people that speaks volumes for the political intelligence of the people. This is the third time that Mr. Bryan has tried to deceive the people into electing him president of the United States by visionary policies, impracticable economic principles and delusive arguments. His policies and the arguments by which he seeks to maintain them show him to be just the opposite of that great Kentucky statesman who declared that he would rather be right than President. The white man in the South has disfranchised the Negro in self-protection. * * * The white men of the South are determined that the Negro will and shall be disfranchised everywhere it is necessary to prevent the recurrence of the horrors of carpet bag rule." Wm. Jennings Bryan in his New York speech. 1906 I favor, and if elected will urge with all my power the elimination of the Negro from politics." Hoke Smith. We present in this edition the cuts of the men who have conducted the campaign which is about to close, in such a businesslike and successful nanner. When the Hon. Frank H. Hitchcock was selected by the National Committee as Chairman, he was confronted by a condition that no other leader had been required to face. The policies of the administration, together with tacit understanding on the part of the candidates of the respective parties had made it impossible for great corporations to contribute anything toward the campaign. This sentiment developed until it gradually included men connected with great trusts or corporations so that it is almost next to impossible to secure a large fund with which to conduct a great political campaign. But with remarkable business sagacity and power of initiative, Mr. Hitchcock has conducted this campaign DES MOINES, IOWA, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1908. copyright 1900 by A. H.

Hitchcock is to be congressed and that his plan of campaign has at last been demonstrated the wisest that could have been adopted. Next in importance in this great political contest comes the Hon. Chas. Nagel, National Committeeman from the state of Missouri. Mr. N gel has had charge of the western headquarters and has acted in the capacity of Vice Chairman in Mr. Hitchcock's absence. Mr. Nagel has given especial attention to the Negro end of the campaign and as an evidence of the fact that the colored voter has not been overlooked, for instance the appointing of Mr. Walter M. Farmer, member of the Speakers Bureau, a position never heretofore given to a colored man. The Negro newspapers for the first time, in this section especially, have been taken into account. We have employed on a regular salary, something over 15 colored persons at the headquarters, not including speak- --- YARNE HOW BY HARRIE & EVINE James Schoolcraft Sherman. Chairman of National Committee. ers and other workers. Mr. Nagel is a broad-minded man and a true friend of the Negro. The fact, therefore, that he was given charge of this branch of the work clearly demonstrates that the management of the campaign was anxious to assure the Negro voters that his interests would be in the hands of those who are especially concerned as to his welfare. Senator Joseph N Dixon is director of the Speakers' Bureau and as such has shown himself to be a man of excellent judgement and free from race prejudice. The colored men who have come in contact with him have nothing but words of praise for him. Mr. Walter M. Farmer, who was appointed a member of the Speakers' Bureau is personal friend of the Hon Chas. Nagel and has been for the last twenty years. Whilen student in the law department of Washington University of St. Louis, Mo., he first met Ma. Nagel who was then Professor of Corporations in that school.

Every Negro man should feel it his duty to vote at the coming election. A vote for the Republican ticket at this election means that the Negro is on the side of progress, justice and fair play.

Having been besides National Grand Secretary of the United Brothers of Friendship and because of his membership in various other secret organization, together with his reputation as a lawyer gave him a national standing which peculiarly fitted him for the position he holds with the National Committee. The work under the present management has assumed, as it should, a national character both in shape and in operation. It it for this reason that the recognition in this appointment was given to no particular locality but was made upon the broader and more comprehensive basis. The work of Mr. Farmer's department has been conducted upon a national scale. Every large gathering of colored people held since last August has been visited by representative speakers sent from his department and no relations have been HON. JOSEH N. DIXON.

Work done through Mr. Farmer's department has received the highest commendation from those in charge of the Eastern headquarters of the National Republican Committee.

THE MASTER OF THE MUSIC DAN O'DONNELL. For Supervisor of Third Distridt. [Image of a uniformed officer] JAMES NEWTON. "My name is James Newton. I was a member of the 25th Infantry, Company D, at the time of the so-called Brownville riot, and I am one of the soldiers that was discharged under the order of the President, in October, 1906. As a soldier I am familiar with the military rules. I know that Judge Taft is not responsible for the discharge of the soldiers I served in the 25th Infantry in the Philippine Islands during the time that Judge Taft was Governor of the islands and know that the soldiers regard him as one of the best friends they ever had. I know that the soldiers still so regard him. I believe that the discharged soldiers desire Judge Taft to be elected President, because we believe that he will do the fair thing by us. The soldiers have nothing to gain by having Mr. Bryan elected President and for what we know of Judge Taft, if he is elected President, we are satisfied that the fair thing will be done by us all. I served in Cuba during the war and was in the battle of San Juan Hill and La Quasia. My home is at present at 3340 Calumne avenue. I have been here since the 27th day of November, 1906." VOTERS OF THE THIRD SUPERVISORS DISTRICT. I am a candidate on the Republican ticket, and ask you to consider the selection of County supervisor seriously In presenting my candidacy to you will say that my past record is my reference and invite every voter to look up through any of the banks or reputable business man in Polk County. Will say that Polk County has five members of the board of ups. visors, two from Des Moines and three from the country and when the country members are all Republicans they hold the the balance of power, placing the county in a position so as to be able to get just what they want in road and bridw work without asking anybody, that is they DAN O'DONNELL, For S have the organization whereby they are enabled to do business, but just now they have their hands tied by hav-two Republicans and one democrat, making it necessary to let the city dictate to them. The city members are good man but I am calling attention to the fact that has been overlooked, if you want power send in a man that represents your district in the strongest possible sense. I think a new man will be in close touch with the people especially the voter and taxpayers that have not had their names written among the favored few. I have no relatives to give jobs, no apology to offer for the cheap campaign stories or lies that have been going the rounds. I stand for honesty, economy and the advancement of the interest of the federal public and believe that the time is at hand when Palk County ought to have better roads and bridges ```markdown ``` 1 11 W. T. Vernon Declares Negro Vote Is Safe (An address delivered by Hon. W. T. Vernon, register of the United States Congress, C., at Des Moines, Monday evening.) "We have in this country today several political parties, but because of the minor importance in point of numbers of some of these, we are all agreed that the real contest for supremacy is the Republican and democratic party. Both parties in their platforms have made declarations pronounced, and upon these declarations have been content to rest their cases with the American people. "The democratic party was founded by Thomas Jefferson a time when human rights were this country, and nad for its basis a false economic doctrine, as well as the doctrine of extreme state rights. The later states, but not a confederation of states from which any state might voluntarily secede at any time, and left so far as to maintain the national government would be powerless to prevent these states from bringing on the government. It further encompassed the right of the states to continue this traffic in slaves. "The democratic state of states obtained, the states of the south controlled by the democratic party, true to their traditions would maintain their national life." "Let us note, however, that the inquisitive system of slavery, which has become more and more intreached and its baneful influence was preventing the accomplishment of these things best for the American republic. "Abolitionists constantly inveighed against slavery, insisting the words, "Land of the free and home of the brave," between the two irreconcilable elements, the result of this free civilization of the north and the slave civilization of the south, made apocalyptic by the slave coin, who said: "This country cannot endure half slave and half free. The slave system, some of which have successfully and some unsuccessfully opposed the democratic party, finally untied to one great end—the emancipation." "These elements, meeting at Philadelphia in 1854 in connection with the abolition of slavery to the territory it then occupied. Among these leaders who hoped for the ultimate extermination, Mr. Taft, who congratulated their faith by their works, was Alphonse Taft, who later became Attorney General, and who as attorney general, true to his principles of a lifetime, rendered the then extinct, and the now extimable, by issuing his famous order to preserve the rights of the American negro. Mr. Taft was the father of that other Taft, the friend of all humanity, who will become the next president of the nation. Mr. Vernon recounted the achievements of the nation under the leadership of the republican party and under the policy of the New York State Root and to the great work of Theodore Roosevelt—the Panama canal, the lioness lion, the lioness lion—as illustrative of the character of service which the republican party and the Speaker discussed the tariff, the supervisor of Third Distridt. for the same money they are now paying. I would favor placing the coy farm management under the Bond, also the county supervisors I don't believe in maintaining political headquarters at the county farm, as that is out of the 3rd, district I favor a law placing the county funds on interest. This alone would w thin ten year time, tile, grade and gravel all the main roads in the county, which will advance real estate values. With the adoption of these measures I believe that it will tend to lower our taxes. I am for a square deal for the rich and poor alike I never could see the philosophy of the County paying a rich man $50,000 for the rear end of a city loo for a jail site, if any of my friends can answer, or explain I would be pleased to be informed. This is my platform and if it meets your approval I want your vote and your influence also all our friends.

A reign of terror was instituted, murder and cruelty unimaginable ran riot thousands of negroes were driven from the polls, denied the right to vote, intimil driven from home and their rights stolen. "I quote from the platform of the democratic state a statement of West Virginia's argument of a law requiring common carriers enraged in passenger traffic to furiously and condescendly compartment for white and coaches passengers." "Elective Franchise Plank—Bellows that the extension of the elective franchise to a race inferior in intelligence and experience is prudent exercise of a privilege so vital to the willingness of good government was mistake. if not of time, committed to the exercise of passion and prejudice following the civil war for political ends and purposes, as in favor of so amending the constitution as to preserve the purity of the ballot, and the electorate privilege upon those purposes, as it affects the stability and preservation of good government." "This attitude of the democrats of West Virginia is expected in other states which may be controlled with the policy of this party throughout the south during the recent session of congress, six bills were introduced demonstrably in congressional for the appeal of the rights which guarantees the right to the metro to vote.

"Throughout this discussion I have striven to set forth, in a measure, those things for which the two parties have stood, without special reference to the American negro. I have done this, feeling that American civilization would appeal to him. As a laborer, business man or professional man, he is vitally interested in the American citizen, but far away any elements of our American life. Since the civil war, by reason of education, enlightenment, prosperity, his part in his country's development makes his interests identical with ours. "But to my mind, the American negro has more to lose or gain by the triumph of these respective parties, because he is in the past, the present and their promises or lack of promises for the future. Half a century ago, began his work of emancipation for the negro. The horrors of slavery need not not be recounted, and of barbarism which clutched at the vitals of the American republic. There were dark night, without one shimmering ray or hope. The pro-slavery party, defiant, tried to further dominate its dominion in "Stephen A.

"Still further convinced that the policy went the nearer from ascertaining his political right, the Republican party awarded him the right to vote in state elections." That the right to vote shall not be denied or abheld by any state to any person, nor be colored or previous condition of privilege. "It is well to note here that in the dilution of all its history, when these great amendments were submitted to the state legislature, historians that every democratic member of every state legislature, north, south, voted against their ratification.

DAN O'DONNELL. of the 10,000,000 negroes of America, that we shall be pleased and most fortunate to have the opportunity to build a founder of such a question, to whom does he refer as "people"? I ask, do the people disfranchise? Do they rule where minorities deny to the majorities discrimination laws to still further humiliate and subjugate this majority in regard to race or color as the origin of their rule where Mr. Bryan expects to receive this majority? In history we are compelled to believe that the republican party will more nearly see to it that all the people rule than will the democratic party. Democratic National Convention. "When the democratic party met in their national convention at Denver, there were many who attained and declared with regard to their attitude toward the negro, but upon this question they were unable to take the statements of their leader as the expression of that party, believing as we can but reflect the expressed will." Mr. Bryan said in Cooper Union speech: might continue indefinitely no longer from the same vein. These cited, however, I am sure will convince all fair-minded people that nothing to hope for with this party in office. "I so not mean that all democrats are in sympathy with these wrongs. I numb my heart to the horrors of the democrats of this country, but I fear that the southern democracy will control the party and it is this brand of democracy I so dread, because it means ruin to my people. Republican National Convention. On the other hand, the republican party, in terms unmanifestable, reaffirmation of the negro. The century regarding the negro. The plenary会议 adopted at Chicago, says: the republican party has been for more than a century a friend of the American negro. It gave him freedom and citizenship. It wrote in 1865, "The negro has civil and political rights. It believes today, that his noteworthy progress in industry, industry and good encouragement of the nation. We demand equal justice for all men, without regard to race, race, race, race, race, and without reservation of opportunity in letter and in spirit of the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendments, and we condemn all those who are designated for the protection and advancement of the negroes, and we condemn all those who are disfranchised for reasons of color, none, as unfit, un-American and repugnant to the supreme law of the land. Judge William Taft on the Negro. As against the statements of William Jennings Bryan at Cooper Union, we have condemned Judge Taft in his speech, and condemned Judge Taft in his speech. "The republican platform refers to the fact that were passed by the republican party for the protection of the negro. The negro, in the forty years since he was five years old, was a press. He is becoming a more and more valuable member in communities in which he lives, and is expanding and improving every way. The best men of both races at the north, as well as at the south, ought to be represented by southern people an influential element disposed to encourage the negro in his hard struggle. The political status. The republican platform adopted at Chicago explicitly demands justice for all men in the country, explicitly declares for the enforcement, and without reservation, in letter and spirit, of the thirteenth amendment to the Constitution, as needlessly state to the Constitution to state that I stand with my party squarely on that plank in the Constitution to all men, and the fair and impartial enforcement of these amendments, are in keeping with the real American spirit of the nation. "In addresses to different bodies of negroes, not only the representatives of the national Baptist convention, Judge Taft has received recognition for his friendship for the negro. Knowing him as I do, I am fully aware that and that his friendship for all men, regardless of color, will be evidenced to him by the destines of the American republic. Conclusion. "Judge Taft stands squarely on the republican platform. True to his family, he is true to his broad comprehensive method of dealing with all men regardless of race or color, and is true to all our citizenship. With his party committed to the guarantee of the fullest opportunity to race, per person, and per ideals of justice, with his specific declarations of friendship to the efforts to rise, we will serve our country and preserve our race by placing him in the white house. We will work to accomplish the will. He will continue the great work of Theodore Posevelt, who has found time in the midst of his great accomplishments and true throughout all his appointments of negroes to places of responsibility and trust throughout all his endeavors to demonstrate their capability along the higher lines, and whose great record gives him rank with the foremost influence to demonstrate our American history but or all the world. "To continue this era of unprecedented public servant and friend of all mankind the great lawyer, best judge, faithful public servant and friend of all mankind him" is the highest type of American citizenship—James Schoolcraft, Sherman and Intensity and common sense of the American people, I predict a triumph of these enlightened citizens at the polls in November."

We acknowledge that the President has made a mistake in regards to Browning and that the best thinkers of the party did not approve of it. Since that is the case let's see what the democrats have to say. Read what their leaders say in the following: A Bill. To discontinue the enlistment and appointment of Negroes in the Army Be appointed by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That on or before the thirteenth day of June, nineteen hundred and seven, all enlisted men of the army who are Negroes or of Negro descent shall be discharged from the service of the United States, and thereafter no Negro or person of Negro descent shall be enlisted, and all enlisted men of the United States. All laws and parts of laws inconsistent with the provisions of this act are hereby repealed. Bryan "The white man in the South has disfranchised the Negro in self-protection, * * * * The white man of the South are determined that the Negro will and shall be disfranchised everywhere it is necessary to protect the horrors of carpeting rule." William Jennings Bryan in sneach at New York in 1908. Hoke Smith "I favor, and if elected will urge with all my power, the elimination of the Negro from politics," John Smith wrote in a secretive letter of an Imperial under President Cleveland. Tillman "We stuffed ballot boxes, we shot Negroes; we are not ashamed of it." Senator Tillman in United States Senate. You speak of being self-respecting colored men. How do you concern yourself about the above statements? Men, stop; think, and read just a little; in every state under democratic rule you have both a court and a stations. In every state under republican rule you buy your tickets and go as ladies and gentlemen. Now these things you know and why do you want to listen to the Brownsville case.

A certain well-known Bostonian has been married long enough to have acquired the average man's cynical attitude in respect of the written expressions of devotion indulged in before marriage. One day the Hubbite was going over with his wife a mass of unessay papers that had accumulated in the house. They unearthed several large boxes full of love letters. After a hasty glance at them, the husband said: "No use keeping this junk, I suppose? Here it goes." The wife was hurt. "Oh, Clarence," exclaimed she, "how can you be so brutal? Surely you want to love letters me?" "Well, keep 'em, if you want 'em," cheerfully assented the husband, "but honestly, Helen, these seem too soft to file!" -Lippincott's. BABY'S ITCHING HUMOR. Nothing Would Help Him—Mother Al most in Dospair—Owes Quick Cure to Cuticura. "Several months ago, my little boy began to break out with itching gores. I doctored him, but it so as soon as I got healed up in one place they would break out in another. I was almost in despair. I could not get anything that would help him. Then I began to use Cuculica Soap and Cuculica Ointment, and after using them three times, the sores commenced to heal. He is now well, and not a scar is left on his body. They have never returned not to think, but they could think.

NOT UP TO THE RECORD. Boy Had, at Least Once Seen Larger Pedal Extremities. A pupil of one of the public schools in Chicago sends this communication: "Dear Sir: In our school this morning an amusing dialogue took place. "A primary teacher of Chicago wishing to impress on her pupils the necessity of greater quiet, sald: "I am a great deal larger than any of you, yet I don't make any noise when I walk around the room." "Perhaps, remarked little seven-year-old Kenneth, you don't wear shoes." "Oh, yes, I do." quickly replied the teacher; "just look. Did you ever see any larger than mine?" "Kenneth surveyed them carefully." "Yes, he replied, slowly, 'once—in a show.'"—Waverly Magazine. A NEW CURE. Jim—What's Jack trying for his theumatism. Bill? Bill—Swearing. As He Saw It. Once upon a time there was a very little boy who desired to go out for a walk with his nurse, but it was raining that day, so he couldn't.

A great scientist has said we can put off "old age" if we can only nourish the body properly. To do this the right kind of food, of course, is necessary. The body manufactures poisons in the stomach and intestines from certain kinds of food stuffs and unless sufficient of the right kind is used, the injurious elements overcome the food. The grandmother "11 years old" writes a N. Y. lady, "had been an invalid for 18 years from what was called consumption of the stomach and bowels. The doctor had given her up to die. "I saw so much about Grape-Nuts that I persuaded Grandmother to try t. She could not keep anything on her stomach for more than a few minutes. "She began Grape-Nuts with only a teaspoonful. As that did not distress her and as she could retain it, she took a little more until she could take all of it." "Then she began to gain and grow strong and her trouble in the stomach was gone entirely. She got to enjoy good health for one so old and we know Grape-Nuts saved her life.

Four-year-old Clyde was a precocious youngster—very talkative and a close observer. He and his father wrestling through Clyde observed, one window at a time, some tadpoles in a pond. He waded in and cried out in delight: "Oh, father, what are they?" "Tadpoles, son," the father replied. "Please, father, let's take them all home with us, then come back and find the mamma and papa, and we'll have the whole family in our pond at home." The father explained how impositble this would be, and as he walked on a few steps a large ugly frog hopped across their path. Clyde's father said: "Look, son, perhaps there is the papa." Clyde was very thoughtful. He looked at the frog, then at his father, then at himself and exclaimed: "Well, father, was there ever so much difference between me and you?" TOO MUCH. Arabella—Ah, John, there was a time when you couldn't see enough of John—Well, I can see plenty of you now, can't I? The Still Alarm. A tourist in an out-of-the-way region of England put up one night at an amiable old lady's cottage, the village inn being full. Now, the tourist was very deaf, which fact he took paints to impress upon the old lady, together with instructions to wake him at a particular bour in the morning. On waking a great deal later than the time appointed, he found that the amiable old lady, with a commendable regard for propriety, had slipped under his door a slip of paper on which was written: "Sir, it is half-past eight!"-"Harper's Weekly.

An evidence of the sentiment of the leading colored men of the country, we hereweth give extracts from interviews received at headquarters during the past week. Bishop C. T. Shaffer, M. D., D. D. of the A. M. E. church, presiding over the 4th Episcopal district, comprising the states of Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, North Carolina, North Dakota and Kentucky, among other things says as follows: "Yes, I have had an opportunity to observe and guage the general trend of sentiment among my people. I have met them in five states in conference gatherings in the past six weeks, all of which have been representative in character, representing possibly 40,000 people from every section of this territory. These gatherings lasted a week each, and gaveample opportunity to develop the drift of sentiment on almost every possible subject and phase of subject of public interest, whether moral, religious, civic or political, state or national, and especially so on the political. In the report on the state of the country with the discussions there, which draw out every point of sentiment, both and con't, held by members of the body * * * * And I ask any thoughtful and honest man, white or black, republican or democrat, in the light of the history of the past, where do the best interests of the Negro lie? What party, I may ask, has contributed most to his freedom? What party gave him the elective franchise? What party secured the passage of the amendments of the constitution by which his civil and political rights have in some measure been safeguarded, and what party at every stage in the Negro's proess in his struggle to develop a noble manhood and womanhood has hade him a Godspeed on his way? And on the other hand, what party has stood in the way and guarded forward movement of the Negro of this country for the past forty years and presumed to fix for him bounds if between that of a man and a beast, to pass which and to be a man in its estimation was a high crime and misdemeanor? Let echo answer. No, say what you will to the contrary, the colored man in the main with all of his best interests for today and somewhat of the future is inseparably allied with republican party, and it is my judgment that quite 90 per cent of the race will cast their votes accordingly in November. And should the party fail of success at the coming election. I am satisfied it may not be held at the door of the colored man." Dr. E. C. Morris, of Helena, Ark., as president of the Baptist association which represents a membership of over 2,500,000. Dr. Morris, among other things, says as follows: "It will not be denied that the republican party came into existence for the purpose of championing the rights of all the people without regard to race, section or creed. It is also a notorious fact that as soon as freedom came to the Negro, as a result of the civil war, the republican party made those fundamental principles apply to the emancipated and emphasized its purpose by adopting three amendments to the constitution of the United States. No intelligent colored men will deny that the party has maintained a record for over forty years of standing by those amendments, thereby proving itself to be the constant friend of the Negro. "To, vote, against the platform of principles enunciated by the republican party in its national convention in June last can mean only one thing and that is, to give sanction to a doctrine advocated by many prominent in the democratic party who are openly advocating the repeal of the 14th and 15th amendments to the constitution, thereby seeking to give legal sanction to the disfranchisement of the Negro." BISHOP J. W. SMITH. Of the A. M. E. Zion Church Says the Republican Party is the Refuge of the Race. If the colored voter will carefully and seriously compare the bold and public utterances in the republican platform with the brutal words of Mr. Vardaman and the silence of the democratic platform, he will be compelled to at least acknowledge to himself that the republican party is still his political refuge and strength. BISHOP GEORGE W. CLINTON Of the A. M. E. Zion Church Says Freedom and Opportunity Have Come Through the Republican Party. Whatever of greatness has come to the country through government; whatever of freedom and opportunity have [Name not provided] HON. N. E. KENDELL, For Congressman of Sixth District [Picture of a man with a long beard and a mustache, wearing a dark suit with a white shirt and a dark tie. The background is a plain, light color.

For Secretary of State. come to the Afro-American as a man, as a citizen, have come through the government while in the hands of the Republican party. If the Afro-American still retains his citizenship and the privilege to exercise the franchise anywhere in the United States, the Afro-American rights of the Union, the republican party alone is responsible for such privileges and rights. Of the A. M. E. Church Says the Colored Voters Will Support the G. O. P. I can hardly believe that any number of our people will support the National democratic ticket. And should we do so, it will be one of the strongest arguments that can be produced against us, and that we do not rise to the dignity of American citizenship; that we do not attach proper importance to the ballot, which is the only weapon of warfare that the poor man has to protect his political and civil rights; that we do not appreciate the untiring efforts and sacrifices of some of the best men the world ever produced; that we are not worthy of the many advantages secured to our people in the forty-two years by the republican party. In fact, it is unreasonable to leave the true, and the tried and to force ourselves upon those who are giving out statements from time to time that they favor our disfranchisement; and who have not expressed a desire to have our support and co-operation. I shall support the Republican party because it is the only party, for what it has already accomplished, it is the only party that has recognized the rights of the Negro, as an expression of gratitude and tanner rememberance for Wilberforce, Harrison, Sumner, Greely, Lincoln and other lovers of liberty. And because I am a Republican in sympathy with the principles upon which the Republican party is founded. REV. H. W. PORTER, Des Moines, Ia. "Why I shall support the Republican party." First, because the Republican party was right, and is nearer right to-day than any other party. Second Because the Republican party made it possible for me, with my own will to vote for whom I will. Third Because the Republican party laid down their life for my race, yer, and broke the shackles off the wrists HON. N. E. KENDELL, For W. G. HAYWARD, WASHINGTON. IOWA. NOTES. Mrs. F. L.

JOHNSON, Independence, Mo Editor, the Iowa State Bystander. It affords me pleasure to state why I shall support the Republican party. First, Because it is the party that made it possible for me to vote. Second, Because it is the only party that has ever recognized the Negro's worth, and given him a place with other men. Third, Because it condemns such men as Tillman, Vardaman, John Sharp Williams and others of the same type. Last, Because they do not believe in disfranchising the Black man. Hoping to see Judge Taft the next President of the United States, I remain. REV. S. L BIRT, Cleveland, Ia While the Republican party has not done all it should have done, or could have done, there are two reason why a Colored man should vote the Republican ticket. It struck the shackles from four million slaves, and distributed eight million dollars among different members of our race as a salary for services rendered per annum. H. McCRAVEN, Des Moines.
