NegroMigrants toMex- ico Fail to Take Prop- er Papers With Them SNES UCR SP SRRSG SSO A eke Fe RP SNe ‘The Department of Inteifor hus not given Instructians to its Migration Inspectors an dAgents to restrict the entrance of North American citizens of the Negro race who Intend to 1¢- turn to their homer located in Mex- ico, but rather when they have pre- vented congrete cases of thix intention they have been permitted passage to National Territory. There may be cited os examples; Henry Riley, Fred Sart, Dot Barnel, and J. Dovglan and thelr families, Consequently the dispoattions be sued by the Department of Interior may be interpreted as absolutely not affecting the North American citizens of the Negro race who are in transit through Territory of Mexico or who are returning to thelr homes; but it ix logical to assume that foreigners will be obliged to furnish the requis- ites apecified by the laws, regulations and other dispositions on immigration and to exhibit to the Mexican author- ities those documenta which prove their statements, In some cases it has happened that the documents of these foreigners, who have intended to en- ter the country, have not been accept- ed on account of being incomplete or deficient; and the fault for thia is due eaclusively to thone interested und not to the authorities of Meaico, With respect to the dispositions s+ sued over the geneial prohibition of immigration, Mexico, ke ull the na- tlons of the world, and based upou Article 8 of the Immigration Law, which permits it to prohthit the en- trance Into the country of individuals Who come o it to become ehatsren up- on Roelety, gave instructions for the entrance not to be pcimutted to des- titute day-laborers who come © eause disastrous competition with Meaican luborers; and on many occurlons, the individuals of the Negio ice who have intended to immigiate have been found to be precively In this situa- tion in a great number of cases, that is to say that they would constitute a real charge upon Mexican society in ease their entrance were permitted; therefore the Migration Inepector» have worked with all energy in thix ‘matter, Immigianty, amt particularly Ne- ‘Jroes, peshups oa uccount of thelr lumited knowledge concerning the Im- migration laws, neglect, in most cas- ‘ea, to exhibit thone p.oofs of citizen- ship and nationality and the olher doc- uments required, for example: that which pertains to the proof of the fact that they are colonists and have concluded contracta over the matter an dover permission for eutrering the country; those relative to proof that they actually have previouxly estub- lished their homes in Mesico, and that it is true they are returning to them. There are casen In which individ- uals who Intend to Immigate claim relationship with families residing in the country, a relutionship whieh Is not supported by any fact and, there- fose, which cannot be taken into con- sideration for permitting entiunce, unlens it is arranged upon other grounds, As Is observed, the intention of the Government in not td restrict the im- migration of safe and industrious el- ements and thore who me not going to become a charge upon soclety; but to free itself from the impostiion of uniestrable element and those who do not produce the requisites requhed by our laws, From the above consliterations, it is to be inferred that Mexico rests upon the necessity of applying defi- nite restrictions upon immigration, but it is certuin that there are not go- Ing o be directed against one partic- ular yace or nationality, but that they have been adopted through being ab- solutely necessary for the protection and conservation of its Internal or- ler, Nici as BE Ra Presenting the singularly specious argument that Chicago cannot afford to rob the South, which is its best mercantile customer, of itn labor, the Chicago Journal of Commerce e- clares that It ia opposed to migration of southern Negroes to that city.

EVANS, Chalrman, MY HEART !8 INDICTING A GOOD THING J. E. Mason The way of rome of our preachers in hard to understand, If they can get a church up north, they go there and feel out the waters and then vend thelr resignation back south, If they can not get a church up north they tell the Negroes lo stay south ov there is nothing up there for them, The truth of the mutter Is, they base the Negro's success up north on their abil- ity to get a church, Grand Master Delancy was in the city a few days ago and stated that the U, B. Fix and S, M, T.s ore ina Prospeious condition. The Grau lolge way forced to unhorse some of the high officers who seemed to think the order was set acide for them to er- vit a lsirg, There are good signs for fuynovement since certain ehang- es have heen made, We shall de all we can to make this lodge a succes and gave the Grand Master out aid i every Way to the end this grand oizanization will be able to make oud, Who's business 4 it if the Negro desizes to go north, there hax been toc much of thi sfoolish, meddling and cowandly chetating into the migration of the Negroes. The South has ad- mitted her inubility to give us 3 square deal, They will rile in blood up to their saddle skirts before they are willing to see the spirit of the 15th Amendment put in operation. We are not going to be hoodwink- jed into staying by the building of a few high schools and the painting of [the rural shacks.

There can be no mulatto leadership it is Just as Impossible for a mulatto to make a true and trusty leader os there would be for a mule to preside over a stable of race horses, We have allowed our foolish sympathy to et mixed up with psycology and met- aphysics.

A WHITE MAN ON THE COPTEY-VILLE SCHOOL OUTRAGE Editor Plaindealer: In your paper dated September 21, you published this article: "Colored People of Coffeyville Standing up for their Constitutional Rights in Kansas" I read the article and enjoyed it very much. Nothing but the best of good wishes and luck to those who bravely fight for their rights. The article clearly showed how some Christians who say Christ died for all, and think Mexicans are better than colored people. The truth is, they are not. Man is equal regardless of race, creed or color. We all have our faults, our good points and desires. The constitution of the United States is a wonderful piece of law, but where the trouble is, having a good constitution and living up to it is two different stories. By the mere fact of not living up to our rgreat and just constitution is where our prisons, poverty, and so-called crimes come from. I was born below the Mason and Dixon line, and I know the conditions of the colored race. I also know the teachings of K. K. K. They teach division and that is ignorance. Where if they would teach unity, all men are bor negal, that is wisdom. Perhaps you wonder why I, a white man, have written to you. My season is this: We are brothers, regardless of our color. Nature gave us a different color, but we are all human. The time is coming and it is not long, when race and color is only history. There will be but one race and that is the human race. Wishing you the best of success, I extend my hand in friendship and will work for the equality of all races. I remain sincerely, JIEAME MANATTI JAISLIP. P. O. Box 37112(?) San Quentin, Calif.

It is also the law of the spirit. Just as complying with the laws of natural growth will assure physical development, so will compliance with the laws of spiritual growth guarantee spiritual development. Time is an element in both physical and spiritual growth. It takes time to grow from infancy to maturity. Time is also required to grow from babes in Christ to the fullness of the stature of manhood in Him. CORNS, Callouses and Bunion's, Sweaty Feet. A cure guaranteed. See Dr. J. H.
