Remember the right of suffrage which is yours for the using and let nothing interfere to prevent you from exercising that right at the polls on election day. * THEY SHALL PASS! Yes—we expect to complete arrangements on this coming election day, whereby all Demos shall pass from the White House and elsewhere on the 4th day of March, 1921. Hear Yet! Dr. Moton who' did 'spress' himself down south, when he told that white editor that the day was passed for white people to use the term 'nigger' and 'darkey' when speaking of the American Negro. And just think it was done in the heart of Dale. Things are about to come to pass. Hill of Arkansas was freed of the charge of precipitating a riot in the same state in which the name of a Negro has been placed upon the ballot as a candidate for governor. Speaking of Hill again, Kansas and its Governor saw the case thru to the end and saw to it that he got justice and then freedom. Now this same Kansas is going to see to it that the boys of the 24th who are imprisoned, are given justice and that very shortly. A little lift from you will help in that direction. After all it takes Kansas to "put things over." Uncle Sam sent Jack all the way to Kansas to be cared for. One of our advertisers came from Koussas City the other day to tell us that a farm in Africa had seen his 'ad' in the Plaindealer and communicated with him about his wares. We pride in the fact that they read the Plaindealer in Africa, if they don't do so in Topoka. Mr. Editor: I see by the daily papers that the price of paper has been reduced Now, it seems to me that all the other leading papers have 8 pages and that the price is cut, you ought to give us a bigger paper like you did years ago for the same price. Harry up and make the paper bigger yours truly, A Reader. I beg your pardon, friend, but you only read the headline. That was a reduction on toilet paper. We don't print on that.

(Seal) Secretary of State 3113L ARE WE NOT DOING THE SAME? Our severest and most objurgatory criticism of the metropolitan press is that they minimize or overlook the creditable doings of the Negro, but headline and magnify his faults, mistakes or shortcomings, until the very presence of the Negro to the minds of many who are not even his detractors, suggest villainy, shiftlessness and crime almost unheard of in other peoples. But are we not condemning and imitating the self-same things? Turn from one Negro weekly to another during the last few weeks and a headliner displays an occurrence in North Carolina, featuring a prominent Negro and a refined woman of the other race in an awkward situation. The reader is puzzled because of its unusual publicity in such journals to understand whether it is the intention to condemn or to codone the behavior. However regrettable it may be—and all of us wish heartily that it had not happened—yet such publicity in such papers makes it in the minds of some a matter to be imitated rather than to be eschewed. Then an eminent optometrist or eye specialist, identified with our race committed suicide in Texas after a dishonorable act. He, though dead, received the same kind of publi- Our race has no monopoly on weaknesses. The metropolitan press simply confirms the former in their propaganda. No race gets any where by parading its weaknesses to the world. Virtues are the things that make for the uplift of mankind. Even Robespierre declared "If there were no Supreme Being, it would behoove man to invent one." Therefore, brethern, if our race had no virtues, it would become our press, now that it is no mean factor for good, to invent some and publish them to the world. For when you least desire it, the world takes you at your own estimate, especially, if it is not high. A READER In the District Court of Shawnee County, Kansas. Cora Austin, Plaintiff. 18.

W. Mitchell, postmaster. We hear from talking about Negro enterprise, and now is the time for you to prove the doctrine which you have been preaching by patronising the above named post office, the one that is intended for you who signed the petition. The office was granted under that provision. We are quite sure that you have too much manhood about you to make a pledge and not stick to it. Now let's be men and patronize the office, for we have taken too much time and effort to get the office established. We have ordered a section of new automatic keyless look boxes and when they are installed will make the office look much better. Let every man who has a spark of enterprise about him put his shoulder to the wheel of success and help make Mitch what it ought to be.
