"Money in Onions," says a P.-I. headline. That's not all that is in onions, as he or she who works over them will verily testify. "Cannot control trusts," says Bryan. Well let them "trust me" for a few million and they will be controlled for a little while at least. An age 1 Oakanogan farmer is giving his property away in order that he may die a poor man. What a pity that there are not more like him. Ex-Mayor Ballinger is not by birth a Southern man, the P.-I. to the contrary notwithstanding, but like the editor of the P.-I. in the South he was known as a carpet bagger. To Thaw out that husband of hers Evelyn n Nesbit has a big undertaking ahead of her, but Evelyn, if all reports about her be true, is a warm baby and can melt the head of most any old iceberg. Ankeny didn't get first blood in the late Spokane convention, exclaimed an anti Ankeny man. Perhaps he didn't, but we fear he ot the hold-over ate senators, which is even worse. Seattle within the past two months has witnessed a carnival of murders committed within or about her gates, and as a result the prosecuting attorney's office is loaded to the guards with information. A woman had better be an old maid and die a spinster than marry a man who spends his evenings in a bar room or at the club even tho' he sends home all a wife and children could wish for, which he seldom if ever does. That neither the people nor the laws that they make have any rights that the railroads need respect is seen from the determination of the N. P. to lay heir tracks in Georgetown in defiance to law and the will of the people. The P.-I. tells of a clerk who saved $60,000 in six years on a salary of $30 per week. Thats almost as good as a Seattle policeman who was able to save enough during Tom Humesdom to buy farms, houses and lots and retire soon afterward worth a moderate fortune on a salary of $15 per week. ```markdown ``` SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, JUNE 29, 1906. OUR NATAL DAY. Next Wednesday and we celebrate the Glorious Fourth of July. The day always brings its fulsome gladness and frequently leaves its serious sadness. Seattle will have no organized celebration, yet the roaring dogs of the small boy will ```markdown ``` make the welcome ring. The following from Collier's should be of interest to the over enthusiastic celebrator: "The Glorious Fourth approaches. According to the most careful computation, 104 cases of tetanus or lockjaw, were reported from the celebration of July 4 last. In 1904 the number was 105, in 1903 it was 415. This decrease in the worst form of Independence Day death is due partly to the legal ban on the giant cracker and the toy pistol, and in part to anti-toxin. The blank cartridge in last year's victims counted but 809, as against 1,005 in 1904 and 1,672 in 1903. Totals did not decrease due doubtless to better reporting of minor cases. The Journal of the American medical Association began collecting statistics only in 1903, and the progress since then has been encouraging. Probably this year both the laws and the enforcement will be stricter and the day will show a smaller loss. Last year Pensylvania led with 721 total casualities, New York and Illinois following with 566 and 542. The deaths last year from tetanus were 87. Total deaths 182. Total injuries of every kind 5,176. Twenty-three persons mostly children were burned to death; 37 were killed by gunshot wounds, 13 of these being stray bullets fired by others; 10 died from fright or shock; 3 were killed by sky rockets; a baby was thrown into fatal convulsions by a cannon-cracker; two persons were killed in runaways caused by fire-crackers; 6 were rendered entirely blind; 45 lost one eye, and 13 one finger or more. Some cities have passed ordinances against the toy pistol only, and others limit the size of crackers. Baltimore prohibiting fireworks altogether, reported but 6 accidents, all of minor nature. Hartford this year has followed her example. Are we losing our worship of noise? Unnecessary whistles are being stopped in many places, and gong practice by motormen is put under restrictions. Apparently the time is at hand when the country will disagree with the small boy, being asksd what thing on earth he most enjoyed, replied that it was 'just plain noise.' In case the county attorney gives a favorable opinion the county commissioners will call an election to see if the voters are willing to vote the $500,-000 bonds for the construction of the Lake Washington canal, which the government has authorized Jas. A. Moore to construct. There should be no opposition to the bonds as the whole county will be greatly benefitted if the canal is constructed. With John C. Fremont, Abe Lincoln, U. S. Grant, James A. Garfield and William McKinley to the credit of the Grand Old Party, and with Teddy Roosevelt at its head, the United States has much to LIBRARY PRICE TEN CENTS. thank the Republican Party for. It has always been a party of progress and if it in the coming fifty years accomplishes as much for the country as it has in the past fifty we are in line far many years of prosperity. And now President Theodore Roosevelt is again to do the unexpected by leaving the United States to visit Panama. No other president ever did or contemplated doing a similar thing. Roosevelt is the most remarkable man that was ever president of the United States, and he has smashed precedent all to smithereens a thousand times. If he is not nominated and elected to succeed himself in 1908 we will be surprised. We are opposed to compulsory or voluntary segregation of the Negro in distinctively Negro settlements in large cities. They are simply the hot beds of vice and crime among a certain class of our people who take segregation to mean license. They commit any and all kinds of meanness, simply because they are to themselves. There is a woeful lack of respect for his kind shown by this element either in his own community or on the streets. Ladies passing the streets in this city any day have their ears and senses shocked by the vile profanity of this class of Negro men. These men do not hesitate to "rip out" the vilest oath in their presence and have been known to turn and utter some vile saying, simply as an insult to well-dressed Negro women. This breed of Negro is a menace to any community. They cover the earth with their filth and slime and the decent, hard-working Negro gets the blame for it, and must bear the brunt of the devilment of this hellish breed.—Kentucky Standard. Every one who has given this subject a moment's consideration are quite cognizant of the fact that every word of the above article is more than correct, and still the Anglo-Saxons in all cities of the United States are continually trying to create "colored set-settlements." In doing so you but retard the progress of the recently emancipated race; you depreciate the value of real estate, not only in the settlement, but all of the surrounding property as well. The Negroes, whether in cities or in the country, should avoid colonizing and endeavor to get homes in every quarter of the city or community. Kick as hard as he may or will nevertheless the white man is the black man's keeper, and likewise is the black man the white man's keeper, and the sooner both sides make up their minds to keep each other in a manner that will produce the very best results it will be the better for the whole of them. If a white or a black family disturbs the peace of a community put the law to it and endeavor to have it put so hard that the offense will not be repeated. In these days of get-rich-quick schemes the formula proposed by a western banker, who figures it out that if a man will put only $1.00 a day in the savings bank, he will have, says the Springfield Republican, at 4 per cent. compound interest, the comfortable sum of $11,300 at the end of 20 years, seems refreshingly simple and sufficiently inviting to encourage small savings as a means to reasonable wealth.—Ex. Friday June 29, 1906 TALES OF THE TOWN Judge W. H. White, once on the supreme bench of this state, but who is now residing at his country home at Redmond, where he is justice of the peace and general advisor of the community, spent a few days in the city this week. * * * The trial of George Mitchell, who some weeks ago shot Creffield, the Holy Roller, on the streets of Seattle, who died instantly from the effects, is now in progress. Public sentiment is all with Mitchell and about the courthouse it is the concensus of opinion that he will be acqditted. * * * King county has two bar associations. The younger attorneys not caring to relieve the old officers from the control of the old bar association formed a new one. In view of the fact that, there are over one-thousand regular attorneys in Seattle, two associations do not seem any too many. * * * H. C. Eldridge, the well known Whatcom county politician and postmaster of Bellingham, spent a couple of days in Seattle this week. "Hugh," as he is known among the "boys," is one of the gamest politicians in the northwest and is now engaged in a great political scrap, accounts of which have appeared in these columns taken from the Bellingham Reveille. * * * No man ever got a more deserving blow than did one Thomas Cullen from Frank Jones, a lad who has not yet reached his majority, and though the blow sent Cullen to a premature death, yet he got just what was coming to him. There are altogether too many men of the stripe of Cullen and his friends, who show no hesitancy whatever in offering insults to women who are rank strangers to them. Evenings these libertines do extra watches on the street corners and every woman who passes without a male esecort is either winked or nodded at or spoken to. In some instances even when they have escorts the women are insulted, as in the Jones case. The trio of brutes, however, thought Jones too delicate and tender in years to resent an insult, but he did and he dealt Cullen a blow on the jaw that broke it into atoms and he fell with a thud and died that hight. The death of a human being is always regretable, but when it occurs under such circumstances as the one cited above, then the intruder richly deserves it, only it is to be regretted that the young man had to use his fist on him. The bonding of King county for a half million of dollars to pay for the building of the Lake Washington canal will be no easy matter, as it is an immense amount of money. If it is to succeed a campaign of education should begin at once. People will not vote that sum of money unless certain of benefits to be derived. There is no doubt but that the building of an immense steel plant will be worth more to the county than the cost of the canal. But there must be other reasons than this one, for people fully understand that most of the benefits to be derived from the building of this big plant will go into the hands of the proprietors and they will not vote public money for private benefit. We are anxious to see the thing go through and the fact that such a man as James A. Moore is at the head of this, is ample evidence that it will be pushed. Let us know all the benefits to be derived so that they can be placed before the voter.—White River Journal. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN The fair held at the A.M.E. church on Fourteenth avenue was well attended. It ran for four nights and aside from the social and business end of it a splendid musical program was rendered each evening. Hon. Fred C. Harper will assume the duties of collector of customs Saturday, but he will not move his family to Port Townsend until the first of August. Already his predecessor, Hon. C. W. Ide, has taken up his residence in Seattle and is located on Twelvth street in the Capitol Hill district. * * * Rev. J. B. Clark twice elected county clerk of Kitaap, and who subsequently held a position at Washington City in one of the departments, is visiting in Seattle. For the past year Mr. Clark has resided at Mabton this state. His eye sight began to fail him some years ago which forced him out of active business life and he moved to the country. He is in Seattle with the intention of having his eyes operated upon. * * * The accidental killing of H. Mills and the serious injury or Robert Hart and Richard McCarthy, the two former colored and the latter white, at the corner of Second avenue snd University street by the men losing control of the concrete mixer, was a very sad affair. That it was a case of criminal negligence is plain to be seen. The foreman's plea that he had frequently moved the mixer, which weighs about eight tons, down 10 per cent. grades without any accident is no excuse at all and he should be proceeded against by the prosecuting attorney at once, and the family of the deceased should enter suit against the Barber Asphalt Company, as should the men injured. H. Millls, the deceased, made his home with S. J. McPherson, who works for the city and resides on Day street, A NEW "PSALM OF LIFE." Tell me not in idle jingle Marriage is an empty dream. For a girl is dead that's single, And things are not what they seem. Life is real, life is earnest, Single blessedness a fib; Man thou art, to man returnest Was not spoken of the rib. Not enjoyment and not sorrow Is our destined end or way, But to act that each tomorrow Find us nearer marriage day. Life is short and youth is fleeting, And our hearts tho' light and gay, Still like pleasant drums are beating Wedding marches all the way. In the world's broad field of battle, In the bivouac of life, Be not like dumb, driven cattle! Be a heroine—a wife! Trust no future, howe'er pleasant, Let the dead past bury its dead; Act—act in the living present, Heart within and hope o'erhead! Lives of married folks remind us We can live our lives as well; And departing leave behind us Lots of kids to shout and yell. Such examples that another, Wasting time in idle sport, A forlorn, unmarried brother, Seeing, shall take heart and court. Let us then be up and doing, With a purpose firmly set; Still contriving, still pursuing, And each one a husband get. —Enumclaw Courier. J. S. GRAHAM .... IMPORTER....

It has been predicted that Columb county would be anti Ankeny. * * * Whitman county will hold its Republican convention June 30th, (tomorrow). Whitman has always shown a disposition to oppose anything Levi Ankeny wanted politically and it seems more inclined that way now than ever. *** The Lincoln county Republicans will hold their convention the same day as will the Republicans of Columbia county, July 7th. This is the home of M. E. Hay who may some day be a candidate for the Republican gubernatorial nomination. * * * The aspirants for the Republican nomination for state senator from the thirty-second senatorial district continue to show up. At present Z. B. Rawson and E. M. Williams from the Ninth ward; Watson Allen and E. M. Mann of the Tenth ward; and Tom Page of the Eleventh ward, are all active candidates and that too two months or more before the time of holding the county convention. * * * During the senatorial contest between Levi Ankney and John L. Wilson it was a capital stroke of political maneuvering to charge every one who was not in sympathy with B. D. Crocker as being a Wilson man, and it had its effect, too; but now that Wilson is no longer even a remote possibility as a senatorial aspirant, the argument loses all its force. Wilson admits himself that he is out of the race for all time to come and his most ardent supporters concede that never again will he be a candidate for United States senator. It would seem, therefore, that it is about time to stop talking about his candidacy.—Walla Walla Bulletin. JOBBING JONES. The news that the Republican convention of this county has endorsed the demand for a division of the state into congressional districts, will be unwelcome news for Congressman Jones, whose future tenure of office depends, in a great measure, in the ability of his friends to block a suggestion provided for by law and which should have been carried into effect long ago. The incorporation of the resolution in the platform was strenuously opposed by Postmaster Hartson and other guiding friends of Congressman Jones' destinies, but the unmistakable "whoop," with which the plank was adopted should be unmistakable evidence of the fact that the Republican voters of Spokane county are more interested in proper representation of the Inland Empire, than in the retention of the Yakima Congressman in his present position. Granted that the latter has shown ordinary aptitude for congressional duties, it is entirely possible that this city and the neighboring district will be able to produce a candidate equally as capable when Washington has been districted in a manner compatible with the law of the state and the law of common sense. What effect the resolution will have upon the political ambitions of the Yakima statesman must, of necessity, depend upon the final result of the districting movement; but it may result in his speedy removal to this city as previously suggested. It is not probable, however, that Eastern Washington will feel obligated to further the ambitions of a carpet-bagger and it may be advisable for Congressman Jones to remain where he s, unless he feels that the salubrious air of the ```markdown ``` THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN Eastern portion of the state will benefit his health. It is not likely to benefit his political ambitions to any appreciable extent.—Spokane Outburst. What means this bloody Cassius? The fame of our local politicians has extended clear to Skagit county, if the following from the Anacortes American may be taken as an indication: Hugh Eldridge and Harry Fairchild, two gladiators of about the same stripe, only different, are keeping the politics of Whatcom county in a continual boil. Harry Political Gladiators Fairchild, who is governor in disguise, and the biggest end of the railway commission, is a thorough politician, if that is any consolation, and we have not stated that he was ever crooked, but it is rumored that a monkeywrench is necessary when he puts on his political boots. Hugh Eldridge, who swigs at the government "pap" bottle, is not accused of having any wings with snow-white plumage; in fact he is something of a waterfront road politician himself, and has always made himself at home when it comes to turning a trick for the good of the party. We may expect an uproar eternal from Bellingham while these two gladiators are in active operation, with an endeavor to put each other out of commission." The newspaper political fight that is being waged in Walla Walla just now is watched with more or less interest all over the state, if not the entire Northwest. The principal scrappers are the Daily Union, Walla Watla's Editorial War representing Senator Levi Ankeny's man Hunt on the one side, and The Bulletin, rep- Walla Watla's Editorial War resenting the Boxers, or the anti-Ankeny forces, on the other. The Union has made its fight from an abusive-ridicule standpoint, while The Bulletin has handed out facts and arguments in the choicest English. Abuse never pays, and while The Union has all the better of the fight, in view of the fact that The Bulletin is opposing Senator Ankeny in his home town, and should Mr. Hunt be defeated it would have a tendency to weaken the senator in political circles throughout the state. Yet the Piemaker would not be surprised if the people at the polls do not rebuke The Union for its abusive campaign by electing The Bulletin's candidate for mayor. In the fight Senator Ankeny has much to lose and much to gain, while the Boxers have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Though the fight be for a mayor of Walla Walla, it has become a state fight. Editor Eugene Lorten was once a chief in Ankenydom and while occupying such a position learned everything, but there came a day as there has or will to every Ankeny supporter so long as Crocker is managing the concern, when Lorten was dethroned. He did not believe he had been given a square deal and he served notice on the Ankenyites to either back up or strip for fight. They chose the latter and at it they went. Lorten became a Boxer and started an evening paper with which he has made an effective fight on the gang. If he should happen to win out in the local election backed as he is by the Boxers it would mean the retirement of Ankeny and the forging to the front of some Boxer, perhaps the Hon. Miles C. Moore. With Seattle's water front already owned by railroad corporations, with the tide flats of the city practically controlled by them, with the Union Pacific demanding the use of the principal thoroughfares entering the city from the south for its exclusive use, and with the S. E. C. owning in fee simple all of the principal streets of the city, there seems to be nothing else of importance about the city except its fresh sea air supply for the Milwaukee to demand, and so it desires the pollution of the pure water supply of the city as a price to come to Seattle. For it to build down the Cedar River water right-of-way may mean death to hundreds and thousands of human beings, but is not human life cheap and certainly very, very cheap, in comparison to the dollars the company would make and save by using that right-of-way to enter the city? What care have the beef packinghouse kings of the number of lives their meats cost just so enough lives remain to continue to use all of their poisonous meats? So, also, what care have railroad officials how many lives are lost by their pollution of Cedar River just so more persons, not aware of the danger awaiting them, come to Seattle to take the place of the dead ones? It is money, MONEY that the railroad officials are out for, and money they want at any cost or sacrifice to even human life. Of course they will spend a halt a million dollars in the courts to hold on to the right-ofway, because it will mean millions to them if they win. Our readers will observe that the business office of the Sunset Telephone Company has been moved to 1510 Second avenue. The old office on Third Avenue so far as business is concerned is closed.

If sleeping, wake; if feasting, rise before I turn away. Is the hour of fate, And they who follow me reach every state Mortals desire, and courier every foe Save death; but those who doubt or hesitate, Condemned to failure, penury and woe, See me in vain, and uselessly implore. I answer not, and I return no more. —John J. Ingalls --- Again we hear the croakers declaring that even the breakfast wheat is not what it is cracked up to be. The President's simile of the "Man with the Muck Rake," now so often quoted, is said to have been taken from Bunyan's "Pilgrim's Progress," and represents that type of humanity which rakes together the filthy lucre and keeps his eyes so fixed on the heap that he cannot look up to the crown of glory that awaits the righteous, the true and the honest, held out by an angel from the shining host. ```markdown ``` The largest American flag ever made was exhibited a few months ago at Denver, Col. It is 215 feet in length, 55 feet wide, and has stars two feet in diameter. The stripes are four feet, two inches in width, and there are 1,450 yards in the flag. It was made to float over the Grand Army building from a staff, but had to be fastened to the side of the building, which it wholly covers. No pole of sufficient strength could be obtained to hold it aloft, the bunting weighing 450 pounds, and when stretched at tensile strength, in a stiff breeze, would undoubtedly shatter one of the largest trees o the forest. --- The Indian is a Socialist. He probably would not recognize his sentiment by that name, but it is true, nevertheless; and he represents Socialism in the fullest sense of the term, says the Coffeyville, Kansas, Record. The Indian believes in communal rights. He does not believe in the advancement of one over the general. He believes in the theory of communal ownership of all necessities of life, even to the land itself. The Indian further believes that so long as there is anything to divide it should be divided freely and equally. In his natural state the Indian believes that you have food in your house, and he has none, you should divide. If there rn in his crib, and none in yours, it is his duty to divide with you. If this you refuse to do you are not his friend. The Socialistic principles have been imbeded in the Indian life as long as there has been tribal existence in America, and it is still extant in the five civilized tribes where the Indian has not become fully naturalized in the white man's way and forgotten his ancestors. --- During my experience as travelling agent for a certain railroad I was one day obliged to call on an agent whose station was located in the mountains in northern Vermont. It was a bitter cold day in February and, although there was a roaring fire in the station, the building was so loose one had to almost sit on the stove to feel any warmth. Soon after I arrived an old gentleman came in and, walking to the stove extended his hands, but it was so hot he was obliged to retreat a few steps, and after making several unsuccessful attempts to get near the fire, he remarked, "Its so gol durned hot here I can't get warm."—Boston Herald. THE SEATTLE REPU LICAN REORESENTA Who if beaten for renomination in Will be a formidable candi That the Southern Negro has in many instances a weakness for the chicken roost is a fact too apparent to try to deny, and that the Southern Negro has always more or less tried to imitate the Southern Caucasian, is likewise an undeniable fact. In antebellum days the slave owner who would not appropriate the chickens, vegetables or anything else that he could use at the great house, which belonged to his slaves, and that too while they were being driven like so many cattle from early morn until black night, was not known of. It therefore was perfectly natural for the Negro to steal from the master at night in endeavoring to imitate the master stealing from him in the day. It was a case of "Greek meet Greek," and "diamond cut diamond." Many of us have heard of a master who, in order to humiliate a Northerner, who was kindly disposed to the Negro race, gave a Negro preacher $5.00 to steal the master a chicken; and discovered after the chicken had been eaten and the Northern man's faith in Negro religion had been shattered, that a fine specimen of his own barn yard, worth ten times the amount, had been taken by the Negro servant. Evil begets evil, and no one ever expected blood out of a turnip. The Negro in the South is good or bad just as may be the Caucasians on whom he or she is dependent. --- Friday, June 29, 1906 IVE W.

This is the gist of an interesting article by H. S. Edwards of Macon, Ga., in the Century Magazine. He shows that already a vast improvement is noticable among those of the colored people who have by thrift and industry been able to buy and pay for their homes. Education is accomplishing wonders in uplifting the Negro, but even with education, so long as he has not some established interest in property, the full process of regeneration will not be completed. Mr. Edwards shows by facts coming under his personal observation the great advance that has been made among those who own their own homes. Thirty years ago, he says, in one of the suburbs of the city given over to Negroes, there was but an aggregation of unfurnished, ill kept, rented cabins, the occupants untidy and shiftless. Such a thing as virtue among the female members was in but few instances conceded. Now in the same community are many families occupying their own homes, flowers growing in the gardens and an air of homelike serenity overflowing the whole district. In conversation with the people good ideas expressed in excellent language were heard. So far as this one community is concerned one great stride toward the elevation of the race has been taken, and it is attributed to the development and encouragement among them of the homeowning spirit A sense of manhood, otherwise unknown, or only partially felt, comes from the consciousness of a home, all THE SEATTL REPEBLICAN paid for by one's own labor. The happiness of owning a home, which naturally comes to every man, is said to strike the American Negro with peculiar force. He feels that he is entitled to respect, and he comports himself as to be worthy of that respect. It is argued by Mr. Edwards that "every man removed from the ranks of the homeless to the ranks of the homeowners is an element of danger to the community converted into an element of safety." In protecting his own home the Negro will naturally protect those of his white neighbors. The logic of Mr. Edward's argument is easily perceptible. Whether Southerners will accept it and be prompted to try to better the condition of the Negroes by encouraging them to purchase homes may be doubted.—Spokesman-Review. THE SUNDAY FORUM The Forum was well attended last Sunday and an unusual amount of interest was demonstrated. Some of the members had thought it advisable to suspend regular meetings during the months of July and August, but this did not meet general favor and so the Forum will meet the second and Fourth Sundays of each month as usual. The address of Mr. Gayton on "Friendship" was full of food for thought and he was frequently applauded while delivering his address and was roundly applauded at its close. Mr. Keeble did not receive sufficient notification to make the necessary preparation and was excused, but he hopes to be present at the next regular meeting and talk on the subject. The members then discussed giving a picnic under the auspices of the Sunday Forum and decided to have the same on July the 19th. Mr. J. T. Gayton, Mr. Henry Gregg and Mr. Wm. Wylie were made a committee of arrangement, and will look out for a suitable place, arrange for music, etc. It will be a basket picnic and a general invitation is extended to all Afro-American families and their friends to participate. Some time in the recent past the firm of Frederick & Nelson ref to serve a colored lady who is in business in this city, in the cafe and lunch room in connection with the furniture business, which the firm advertises was put in expressly for their patrons, and the matter was brought to the attention of the Forum. Mrs. Graves, the lady refused accommodation, was present and stated that she had seen Mr. Frederick in person and that he gave her no satisfaction, but left her to understand that the colored people would be waited upon for anything they wanted to buy in the way of furniture, but would not be served in the lunch room; whereupon it was moved, seconded and unanimously carried that the members of the Forum resolve themselves into a committee of one to persuade all Negroes to withdraw their patronage from the firm The Th Re Has Co to m Cashier Long Dista 1510 Sec SUNSET And Comp The Third Avenue Regrade Has Compelled us to move our Cashier's Business and Long Distance Offices to 1510 Second Avenue SUNSET Telephone And Telegraph Company..... of Frederick & Nelson. A committee consisting of Mr. J. S. Murray, Mrs. Aurora Grose and Mr. I. F. Norris, was appointed to visit the pastors of the various Negro churches of the city with the view of enlisting their sympathies in the boycot and to have them announce the same from their pulpits. This firm has gotten the great bulk of the furniture trade of this city and county, and if the cafe was not put in to make money, but for the patrons of the store, then it should not give the proprietors any alarm if someone did not visit it because Negro patrons were served the same as Caucasians. Let's hope that this matter will be talked of and approved by every Negro in this section of the country, and when you want furniture go to some place which at least has not gone upon record as desiring to draw the color line in business.
