LIEUT. J. WILLIAMS CLIFFORD.
Special Representative, Colored Soldiers and Sailors, Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Resigns.
The usefulness of his work strangled by the prejudice and discrimination of the Democratic Administration. Lieutenant J. Williams-Clifford, former officer of the 367th Infantry, 92nd Division, A. E. F., who for over a year has looked after the interests of Colored Servicemen in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance recently tendered his resignation as their special representative because of continual limitations of his official duties by prejudiced southern white superiors. Upon interviewing Lieutenant Clifford, he said: "Little by little certain officials in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance have attempted to give my section trouble simply because of their hatred for the Negroes. Upon one occasion it was claimed that a personal letter was sent out from my office in a franked envelope without a stamp, although the envelope was never produced. Another time I was ordered to stop signing letters written in my section to Colored Soldiers, and friends because they wished them to be signed by a white man. This I refused to do and I was given to understand that if I did not do so, they would get someone who would carry out their orders. It was only after a two weeks fight that I was again permitted to sign my name to letters originating in my section. Later I was forced to send my dictated letters down to an other office where a white high school graduate approved and signed them signing my own signature to my own letters before they were sent out. This was all done because there was fear that I would persist in helping Colored ex-Servicemen in matters pertaining to their Insurance, Death Claims and Allotment claims in a way that might 'embarrass the Bureau of War Risk Insurance."
Realizing that there was need for a Colored man in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance to look after the Insurance, Compensation, and Allotment Claims of Colored Soldiers, I succeeded in having myself appointed to the position during the present administration. My official designation has been Special Representative of the Colored Soldiers and Sailors in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance. By articles in the Colored newspapers and magazines and through the enrollment of many volunteer workers including Ministers, Doctors, Lawyers, Insurance Agents, Social Workers, Young Men's Christian Associations, Young Women's Christian Association, National Association for the Advancement of Colored people, Fraternity Organizations, Urban League Workers, and other Community Service Organizations. I have been able to stimulate interest in Government Life Insurance among Colored discharged Soldiers to the end that millions of dollars worth of insurance have been saved and added to the economic strength of the Negro race. This work according to letters over the signature of my superiors has been carried on my efficiently. In fact it has been common talk in the Bureau that the Colored Servicemen's Section for its sie is one of the most efficient Units in the entire institution.
My office force of twenty-five employees including dictators, stenographers, file clerks, and typists have rendered faithful and conscientious service 1 nthe interest of the discharged Colored Servicemen. Telegrams and letters have been sent to me telling of unjust, discriminating and cruel treat-

ment that is accorded wounded Colored heroes by medical examiners in certain United States Government Hospitals located in the south. Many letters have been received that would bring tears to your eyes upon reading them. Upon one occasion in enedavoring to do my duty to my fellow-comrades who fought over seas to help make the world safe for Democracy, my letter requesting a Colored Y. M. C. A. Secretary of Huoston, Texas, to investigate the condition at Camp Logan, Texas, and the treatment of Colored War Risk patients at that institution was held up, it being claimed that such procedure would get the Bureau into trouble. There are letters in the Colored Servicemen's office from Colored Soldiers who have been wounded on the battle fronts of Europe, and who are now forced to remain in hospitals in the south that would make your blood boll in reading of the treatment accorded them. The peculiar nature of many cases in the field occasioned by circumstances over which the Bureau has no direct control justifies the employment and recognised representative of the Colored race in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance and in the field as Medical Examiners and Field Investigators. I believe such a policy would minimize the cases where so considerable a number of Colored former Servicemen are apt to be neglected or set aside. I think that the Negroes of America should know these conditions and that they should be brought to the attention of men and women of noble characters and genuine American principles." Mr. Clifford further stated:
"The policy of segregation and discrimination enforced by the Democratic Administration is un-American and displeasant in the extreme. Merit and ability count for naught if you have a black face. In most every Government Department the Colored members of my race are huddled together in some obscure corner or room and kept away from the other employees just as if they are infected with some insidious disease. Colored Soldiers who fought on the bloody battle fields of France, and contributed to the glorious American victory, who are now working in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance are not permitted to eat with the other employees of the Building in the War Risk Restaurant. It is to be hoped that the utterances now falling from the lips of Senator Harding, Republican nominee for President of the United tSates bespeak the genuine spirit of the Republican Party and the American Government—a spirit of fairness and justice to all without regard to race, color or creed." Lieutenant Clifford has taken the stump for the purpose of exposing the discrimination, segregation, and injustice practiced by the Democratic Party in the Governmental Departments at Washington, D. C., and is urging the Negro ex-Servicemen the country over to be at the polls November 2nd with a unanimous ballot for the Republican Party and the noble principles it represents.

Now comes the close of the most remarkable campaign in the history of American politics. The opposing generals have lined up their forces for the FINAL engagement, and the outcome of which will mark the beginning of a new chapter in the history of civilization. Like the battle of Poitiers, it will be a struggle between the allied forces of race-hatred and blind fanaticism, on the one hand, and the advocates of human liberty and of human progress on the other. The result of this great battle of the "Ballots," will determine whether the American Government is to be the IDEAL of the tolling masses of mankind, who are seeking greater opportunities for individual development and a HAVEN to which they may fly for LIBERTY and PROTECTION; or will she become a government of GREED, of GRAFT, of FACTIONS, of RACE-HATRED, of MURDER, of SEGREGATION, and of DISCRIMINATION? HARDING stands for an IDEAL government. A government of the people, for the people, and by the people. COX is a champion of "classes" of "factions," which, if endorsed by the people, will, in time, destroy the Republic. The SANITY as well as the PATRIOTISM of the people, is on trial. Will they vote for the PERPETUITY of the Union, for the PROTECTION of their children, and for the betterment of mankind, or will they vote for four more years of "Wilsonian High Cost of Living," of "Wilsonian Segregation," of "Wilsonian Race-Riots," and of "Wilsonian Democracy." There may be hidden, in some out-of-the-way nook or corner of this broad land, some homeless, friendless, brainless, criminal Negro, who will vote for COX, but because of his infirmity, the Savior, in His infinite mercy, may, when this poor human monstrocity has lived his days on earth, forgive him when he comes to die, but we fear that the spirits of thousands of Negroes who have been "lynched," "mobbed," "outraged," and "burned to the stake," will enter a PROTEST against his pardon at the Judgment seat of God.
On Friday evening, November 5th at 8 p. m., 1920 Far West Commandery No. 3, Knight Templars will give a BANQUET at the COMMUNITY CENTER, 18th and Vine streets, celebrating their 39th Anniversary.

A GREETING TO THE OLD SET
TLER'S ASSOCIATION.
By J. D. Bowser.
Dear old Timers—The idea of a personal Conference with the two hundred and more members of our Association who for two or three score years have contributed your share in the upbuilding of this great City was suggested to me on reading in a local paper that perhaps our oldest member, Mrs. Flora Waldon, aged 94, intended to cast her vote for the first time on Tuesday, November 2 next. At once my mind wandered back to that March 20, 1860, when the passage of the Fifteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution conferred upon Colored citizens the right to vote. I thought, too, of the fifty years that had gone by before the same political party had decreed that the right of suffrage should not be denied to any person on account of sex.
I thought of the remnant who were in at the birth of Negro Emancipation and manhood suffrage who are still living in Kansas City, and whom it would do my soul good to know that the, too, had gone to the polls, and, like Mrs. Waldon, had cast their first ballots for that grand old part which made universal suffrage possible, and back of it freedom itself, turning the auction block into a school house and the whipping post and slave pen into Universities and happy homes.
The roll of those I know might seem to belong here, the octogonarians like Mrs. Mary Madison, Mrs. Martha Johnson and Mrs. Eliza Rone, must not be omitted. Then I should be glad to know that our good friend Napoleon Railey, a lusty lad of 85, had chaperoned each of these venerable women to the polls.
But, what of that much larger number of survivors of a past generation who like myself have rounded out their allotted days of three score years and ten and other uncounted years. Among whom Willis Brown, Mrs Sarah Felds, Carl H. X. Stewart, Mrs Julia Logan, George W. Payne, John B. Morehead, Rev. Deemer Washing ton, Mrs Jane Kane and Mrs. Kate Jordan?
Listen, comrades! Do you recall what great events have transcribed in this country since you and came upon the stage of action? Do you realize that we are older than that infamous fugitive slave, law which made a hunting ground for the return of runaway slaves of all the land from the Ohio River to Canada? Older than the repeal of the Missouri Compromise which made slave territories possible of Kansas and Nebraska? Older than the Dred Scott Decision which decided that a Negro had no rights that a white man was bound to respect and could never be made a citizen? Older than Uncle Tom's Cabin, which did more to convert the Nation to the enormity of the slave power than all other books or literature ever writen? Older than the Republican party itself, which was organized for the express purpose of putting away all these Democratic deoblation and of making the Declaration of Independence that all men are created and equal? Older than John Brown's Martyr done at Harper's Ferry when all but his twenty-one followers, two of whom were his sons and five black men were crucified that we might enjoy the rights of freemen and do we not hear reverberating through the walls of memory the dying echoes of the slave driver's lash as it cut deep into the quivering flesh of some helpless slave mother, whose babe had been torn from her breast and sold upon the auction block? Do we not hear as eestday the baying of murderous blood hounds on the track of some Elliza as she leaps from ice floe to ice floe in the chilly waters of the Ohio? And do we not remember that then as now there were waiting on the other side Judas Iscariot with black skins ready for a few pieces of silver to betra runaway slaves back to their cruel Masters?
And do we not rejoice in this crisis of our country's history that we have no birthright to sell for a political message of pottage? That we wear no party collars, bend under no party yoke. That no party, no organization, has any deed or trust on what little brains we have. And aided by our long memories of how the privileges we enjoy were vouchsafed to us we have no intention to kiss the hand that through all these turbulent years has struck at every measure of the liberties we enjoy, and even now has revived the Klu Klux Klan to prevent

Negro women in the South from exercising the privileges of the ballot and are compelling Colored men to work in the cotton fields at wages fixed by these ghostly night riders or suffer violence and outrage at their hands. And knowing and remembering these things I need not inquire how you will cast your vote and with which party you will affiliate for better, for worse until in the South as in the North there shall be a free ballot and equal opportunity for all the people alike to enjoy life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Negro Physician Gets Prison Sentence
(By the Associated Negro Press.)

NEWS NOTES OF WASHINGTON
D. C.
Charles Neal, ten-year old Colored boy, met with a fatal accident. He attempted to move a boarding motor truck, driven by Arthur H. Lee, also Colored. He fell and a rear wheel of the vehicle passed over his chest, killing him almost instantly. The boy was hurried to the Emergency Hospital in an effort to save his life, but he died before reaching there.
COLORED MAN EXECUTED
Frank Bowman, a young Colored man, who was convicted of first degree murder in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, was hanged on the gallows at the District jail. The drop fell at 8.03, and at 8:20 Drs. J. A. Cannon and J. N. M. McKenzie pronounced the man dead. Bowman walked briskly to the scaffold, and after the Catholic chaplain had said a short prayer, the noose was adjusted and the drop sprung. Bowman made no statement fro mthe gallows. He had resigned himself to his fate, and spent most of his time reading religious books. The crie for which Bowman was executed remained a mystery for two years, and may have still remained unsolved had it not been for the fact that Bowman and his female companion had a quarrel, following which the woman informed the police that Bowman had killed Clarence J. Keefer, a paralytic, in Lord's Woods, Brookland, D. C.
Detective Sargeant Harry Beckley, one of the most efficient members of the Metropolitan Police force, has resigned his position, following a raid in which he was captured in company with a woman. He forfeited his collateral in the police court.
The 8th anniversary of Asbury M. E. Church was celebrated with exercises beffiting the occasion. One distinct feature of the occasion was the celebration if the 26th anniversary of the leadership of Class 4, by Ernest J. Green.

My Dear Mr. Crews:
Permit me to lay my rose-leaf of hearty sincere congratulations on your altar of faithful work for your twenty-four years' of newspaper service. A service like yours has meant much, and must mean more now that we are beginning a new era, and Negro journalism is called upon to mold sentiment as never before.
I must not make this note too long, yet I cannot but express the hope that
OUR NEW HOME
you will be given strength for the gigantic task ahead of you, which must be met, and met with a courage, with a spontaniety that amrks efficient service for a race that needs the service and knows not that it needs it. What more fitting wish can one give than that one should pray that you may continue to grow in wisdom, and in favor with God and man? With the heartiest of hearty congratulations, I am. Most cordially yours, DANIEL W. CHASE.

He left Kansas City during the recent world's war going to Indian Head, Md., to work in the shipyards, later going to Baltimore and last May to New Jersey. Mr. Johnson was a kansas City boy born and reared at Wichita, Kansas. After his marriage to Miss Dolly Hawkins of Salina, Kansas, December 31st, 1913 they came to Kansas City, Mo, where they lived until he went East.

The funeral was held from the Carter Chapel, Leavenworth and an eloquent sermon was delivered by Rev. Redd of the St. James Church. A profusion of beautiful floral offerings covered the casket, testifying to the esteem in which he was held by his friends in Kansas City and other cities. Burial was made in Mt. Muncie Cemetery. He leaves a wife, Mrs. Dolly Johnson, Kansas City, Mo., Dudley Johnson, father, Wichita, Kansas; Emily Johnson, Wichita, Kansas; Emma McDonald, grandmother, Leavenworth, Kas; Ida B.

Kidney, Bladder and Stomach
‘To Whom It May Concern:
For 18 years I have suffered with
constipation, kidney and bladder trou-
bles. I have taken treatments from
many noted physicians, tried numbers
of patent medicines; récelved little or
no relief, I had almost given up in
despair for a cure. But by chance
one day two years ago a sample bot-
tle of Moore's Vigorine was handed
me. I tried it and found great tm:
provement from the first few doses
Tthen bought a bottle and took it with
still more marked improvement, until
now I feel that Iam entirely well. 1
suffer from neither of, the three ail-
ments. Instead of that sluggish,
soring-time feeling, I feel well and re.
freshed. For what it has doue I feel
that 1 will be doing myself an injus-
tice without a bottle of it in my house,
in case I should ever need it. Any
information I can give a sufferer, 1
will gladly do so, at any time, Call

THE KANSAS CITY SUN, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1920.
ST. STEPHEN BAPTIST CHURCH.
Rev. J. W. Hurse, Pastor.
All services were well attended Sunday. There were a great many visitors present. We were glad to see them and invite them back to see us. 11:30 the pastor chose for a text Judges 30:11, subject "I've Vowed Myself Unto the Lord." He preached a noble sermon, closed by singing "Where He Leads Me I will Follow..." Sunday school was good and filled with enthusiasm... At 3:30 we joined the pastor and went to Rev. Banks church, 54th and Montgall, which we enjoyed very much. Our pastor made some brief remarks after which we raised $40.25 to help Rev. Banks in his great effort... The B. Y. P. U. was unusually interesting... The pastor filled the pulpit in the evening, text John 15:5 subject "Abide in the Vine." He made us know Jesus was the vine. He delivered an enjoyable sermon... Our sick members are improving... We had with us an old woman who had a stroke of paralysis. Dr. Miller picked her up and treated her and brought her to the church. Her name is Savannah Payne and she is from Kansas City, Kas. We were glad to help her. The members also donated Mrs. Emma Gatewood for the purpose of sending her to Excelorsl Springs for her health. Emma Gatewood $52.11; Savannah Payne $25.00; Church $95.33. amount raised $172.44. Amanda Lawson. Reporter.

AMERICAN WOODMEN PAY DEATH
CLAIM BEFORE BODY WAS
PLACED IN GRAVE.
Mrs. Mary Midtleton, 809 McGee,
who departed this life Tuesday morning,
October 19, 190, was a member of the American Woodmen. Her funeral was conducted at Allen Chapel church, Rev. J. B. Isaacs, officiating, and our own Rev. Hurse, who prayed in the audience. Then the American Woodmen conducted their splendid ceremony, which was short, but had a great meaning, which expressed a heart felt sympathy to the bereaved family and many friends.
Supervisor N. S. Adkins who closed the ceremony by saying Neighbor Middleton, who was a member of our fraternal family, her death has caused one link to be broken from our Woodmen chain; our loss is Heaven's gain. Supervisor Adkins better known as the Insurance Hercules of the Middle West, in his pointed remarks, said June 1st, 1919, these are the words as spoken by Neighbor Mary Middleton, that at my death I desire to have my $500 paid to Mrs. Jennie Jordon, and in keeping with her request, Mr. Adkins presented the valued amount in currency to the beneficiary, which caused a great wondering in the audience as how a death claim could be paid within such a short time. It is now decided that the American Woodmen is fraternal insurance and business model for the American Negroes. Now endowments and no taxes of any kind, but only straight monthly dues to pay. The sick, accident and death claims are paid right on the moment that proof is established, without any red tape. It only costs $3.00 to join. It provides the medical examination fee. For further information you may call Supervisor N. S. Adkins, Clifton 4648-3811—Residence Clifton 1865. Office 1612 East 12th street.

E. Church of which she was a faithful member. Mrs. Foster was born in Kansas City in 1895 and was twenty-five years of age at the time of her death. She leaves three sweet little children, Marjorie Rial and Chester Jr., as well as a husband and a devoted father and mother who

gave her every care and attention during her long illness. Eugene Segars has been Messenger for the American Sash & Door Co. for a number of years and is one of their most faithful and highly appreciated employees and for five years he has been the custodian of the Sun and its neat and attractive appearance is due to the faithful and untiring efforts of this splendid man. Mrs. Foster was their only child and they feel the loss very keenly. Several relatives and friends from out of the City attended the funeral and the many and beautiful floral offerings attested the high esteem that she and her family are held in this community. The Sun and its entire staff extend their deepest sympathy to this family in their hour of sorrow and bid them "Trust in that God who doeth all things well." Interest was in Highland Cemetery.

MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATION
MILITARY PROOF
FIRST IN SERVICE
To the Colored Voters of the Nation:
We are now on the home stretch of the greatest political drive of this day and generation to dethrone the Democratic oligarchy which has been created, encouraged and fostered, by teh autocratic South, and led by that dreamer of world power and world dominion. Woodrow Wilson.
We have never had such an opportunity to display real patriotism and Party devotion. The nation expects much of us. The Party expects even more.
In some states there are complaints on the part of Colored voters against candidates on the Republican ticket for the Senate and lower house of Congress for divers reasons inspired by designing Democrats and mercenary Colored leaders with a view of rauding the waters that the Democratic candidates might escape unnoticed and unobserved with power and position. But please be it remembered that no matter how conservative any Democrat candidate for Congress may be, you cannot get away from the fact that if these Democratic candidates are successful, they go to Congress and come under the lash of the Democratic whip. For eight years the Democratic whip has been in the hands of Southern leaders and these Southern leaders in Congress have introduced legislation touching the race only when it meant the setting back of the wheels of progress of our group. Therefore you cannot dissociate the Democratic Senator or Congressman, whether in Missouri, in Maryland or in Ohio, from the Tom Watson of Georgia or the Pat Harrison of Mississippi and their kind.
At this crucial period of reconstruction following the world war when the political structure is in chaos and being re-crystalized, it is our radial duty to see to it that men are placed in power who will stand by a president who will administer the affairs of office in the interest of all of the people irrespective of race, creed or color.
Have no misgivings as to our presidential candidate and do not be led away by the contentions and blockings touching the covenant of the League of Nations. Great as may be the issues involved in the League of Nations, they are of but small consequence when compared to the Constitution of our nation, in the enforcement of every letter of which, we above all other people, are most vitally interested.
To the end that you may the more clearly see the importance of voting and voting right in this election, we beg to call your attention to the fact that we have witnessed an unprecedented spectacle in the Democratic candidate having condescended to the low level of injecting the race issue in a presidential campaign.
It may be that the Republican Party has not done all that we might have desired done—it may be that it has not done all that it might have done—but we must confess and admit that the Republican Party has done all for the American Negro that has been done.
Let us see to it by every influence that we can command and by all of the activity that we can bring into play, that our vote is brought out and counted and that we may be a most vital factor in the selection of Senator Harding and a Republican Congress which will mean a new birth of freedom to us and a new impetus to world progress and humane endeavor.

KNIGHT TEMPLAR BANQUET.
It is understood that back of all the pleasure sought to be had at the K. T. Banquet is a plan of the present officers to raise money for the Commandery. If so they should be commended for taking this step in preference to the public dances and raffles of the past. Templarism is a Christianly organization and raffles and public dances smokers are unbecoming to Knight Templars. This organization is fully strong enough to support these kind of entertainments and if all their members rally to the cause as they should, nothing but success awaits them.

—That self conceit and bashfulness never dwell in the same abode.
—That it's easier to touch most men's hearts than their pocketbooks. Amen.
—That on next Tuesday the Grand Old Republican Party is "Gwuine to bring home de bacon."
—That any a so-called orator is only a human phonograph. Hush honey, somebody'll hear you.
—That Kansas City has more grass widows than any other city in the United States. Why or why?
—That self-made men are scarce but self-made tools could be found by the hundreds. Hush Betty you talk too much.
—That Negroes in business who will not pay their bills can't expect either to get much credit or patronage.
—That the man who kicks because his wife goes through his pockets ought to be like the editor, never have anything in his pockets.
—That if half the people who know just how the election's going knew as much about their own business, they wouldn't have to hustle all the time to make both ends meet.
—That a whole lot of the handkerchief-head women are welcoming cold weather because they'll have a good excuse to not comb their hair and tie up their heads.
---
—That a whole lot of Cullud folks are crazy about cold weather when it's hot and crazy about hot weather when it's cold and now when its neither hot nor cold, they say it's not healthful. Lawd hag mercy!
—Call Fairfax 380 or Flaix 4422.

Cured His RUPTURE
I was badly ruptured while lifting a car several years ago. Doctors said my arm was broken and I trussed did me no good. Finally I got hold of something that quickly and comfortably and the rupture has never returned although I am doing hard work as a carpenter. There was no openness no lost time and no trouble but will give full information about how I can complete cure without operation. M. Mullen, Carpenter, 1070G Marcelus avenue, Manaquan, N. J. Better cut carpenter's arm so that who are ruptured—you may save a life or at least stop the misery of rupture the worry and danger of an operation

WE GIVE AND RECEIVE
Like all primitive races, the Negro, whereas he may have much that is original to contribute to civilization, he also has much that must be annulled by the finer developed sense of this society which is indebted to him. Specifically, the Negro gives civilization music, civilization gives the Negro manners. One is primitive, the other is a thing of established custom.
THE FLEXIBLENESS OF AMERICAN HATE.
Surely American hate of the Negro is not flexible! Surely the superiority of the whites is not questionable!
The Economic, and not the Social, is the real acid test of Race and Personal pride. For instance take a downtown store that handles some standard or staple shoe. A goodly number of these pretend that they do not like to sell to Negroes—yet they sell to them, anyhow. That is to say they take this attitude towards the Negro customer: "I am your superior, I hate to come in contact with you in anyway, I even hate to sell you goods, so keen is my prejudice, so positive is the sense of my superiority and your inferiority. Yet I will take your money, for money, after all is money, even if it comes from a "Nigger." And here is where the flexibleness of American hate is discovered in many ways. It is considered highly American to hate the Negro; to always uphold the contention of white superiority, but contention usually breaks up on the wheels of the economic force. That is why we say the Social is not the great acid test, but the Economic. Now the growing commercial enterprise and industry for Negroes offers a challenge to the affected superiority and vaunted hate of the whites, Negro business activity is saying to the whites: "We will take over this despised and hated customer of yours if you will permit. We will establish marts in our own neighborhoods especially to handle this inferior person who has money to spend. And since this customer is confessedly nauseating to you we naturally expect your co-operation in helping us to rid you entirely of his presence."
Is there a practical way to do this?
We should say there is, decidedly. And we can demonstrate our contention by using the present subject of the shoe stores. One thing is certain —Negroes will buy good shoes, no matter what they cost. Now there are Negro merchants who would gladly handle the best shoes, but they can't get them. Why? Because local white dealers or agents handle these shoes with iron clad exclusive rights. So since the privilege of selling the standard or staple shoes is denied the Negro merchant, Negro people are forced to go where they are not wanted in order to get standard or staple shoes.
We say that if the write man's hate is truly inflexible, and his affected superiority real, he will afford the Negro merchant an opportunity to give his own people pleasant and loving service instead of compelling himself to render the Negro hateful and contemptuous service. We say he can do this by permitting Negro merchants to sell standard or staple shoes exclusively in Negro neighborhoods. Make it from factory to Negro consumer through Negro agencies. This would prevent the contamination of the superior whites by heading off the undesirable Negro trade from their stores.
This being successful other lines could follow suit. Thus the superiority of the whites would be left to themselves, undisturbed. That, I understand is what they want. I believe that is what they so strongly contend for. Anyhow, it would serve to make the Negro independent, and I suspect that is just about what the Negro wants. The cunning dog!

HINTS FOR THE NEGRO STATESMAN.
Be a vertiable Sphinx, not an open book.
Don't let the other fellow know how much you love or hate him, let him find this out in a crisis.
If it is wise, good and just, say it boldly.
Foolish statements are largely made in bravado.
Talk is an expenditure of air, used wisely or unwisely, extravagantly or economically.
Mere words are little drops of water making a pond that easily stagnates, corrupts.
ACTION is a swift stream of water rushing on to Fate, Destination—good or bad.
A statesman bases his plans largely upon Policy, and not Principle. This is a lost chord, since he uses cunning with cunning, craft with craft, deceit with deceit. Statesmanship has this disparaging distinction from TRUTH: Truth says, "I AM," positively, and without any modification. Statesmanship says, "I am, BUT!"
Now hitherto the only thing that the Negro "Leader" (our nearest approach to a statesman) has offered in Statesmanship is PATIENCE. But the Negro has too much patience, and too much of anything is bad. EQUIPOISE is the only thing worth while.
Patience, commonly understood, is is waiting hopely for good to come. Bravery is to fight and win! Be patient and patient and patient—and remain a slave. Fight, fight, fight for yourselves AND BE FREE!
We hope to publish an article next week that will open the eyes of the Negro of this community on the one thing that is really vital to all humanity, and that is ECONOMICS. You know there is a whole lot of us who are only active in public welfare about once every two or four years (Election Time.)
But the sincere citizen is always on the alert to something to give aid and light to his fellow man. If he is a real Raven man, then he is that about 365 days in the year—working for the Race cause. He is not periodical, but constant, unceasing to the end.
This week we are surfeited with the smack of politics. This is alright in its place, but after the ballots are all in and counted the greatest thing about the result of this is that SOMEBODY HAS BEEN ELECTED. The Negro, in particular, will face the long problem of Economics again, the next day. But how does it happen that we know more about "Politics" which we sense practically only once in two or four years than we do about Economics which, like the poor, we have with us all the time. Something wrong here, the thoughtful would observe, YES VOTE, VOTE AT EVERY LEGAL OPPORTUNITY, VOTE, AND VOTE RIGHT! I WILL EVER SAY TO YOU IF YOU ARE CONSCIENTIOUS, THEN VOTE THE REPUBLICAN TICKET (That is if you haven't the nerve to vote the Socialist or Labor ticket.) But if you don't give a d—m for yourself or your people then vote for the democratic party!
However, remember that no election returns will bring to you a solution of your economic problem, but scientific knowledge will aid us all greatly—let us try to learn something about it.
