Limagine I can see the business manager of the PLAINDEALER entering the Representative Hall through the S, E. door, stand a while with pencil and paper in hand and the interest of the Negro at heart, spot his man, |whether he be a machinist or cowboy, rush to him and cour- -|teously make his wants known. |Itis but just to say that the _|business manager championed _|the anti-lynching bill and killed ,|the separate high school bill in ; the committees.
