Sept. 26, last, persons who have attained their majority since the last registration revision on Oct. 17, all voters who have moved into the city from out of town and all voters who will have resided in the State a year May 11. Only Chance Before Primaries. The special registration was provided to give all St. Louis Citizens an opportunity to vote at the coming Bond Election, yet it will be the only chance that voters, whose names are not on the books, will have to qualify for the primaries in August. The primaries are most important to the Colored people for men are to be selected who will be the candidates on The Republican Ticket for important offices from the Governor of Missouri down to Committeemen in the various city wards. It should be the duty of every citizen to see that his name is on the books, so he can vote in August. Any voters who have moved since last election and will be absent from the city next Thursday, may go to the City Hall this Saturday, March 20, and get their names recorded. Women May Not Go To Town. Women may not get to register next Thursday, according to Chairman Arnold of the Board of Election Commissioners. If the National Suffrage amendment is ratified by 36 States before March 25, the board will permit women to register. Thirty-four states have ratified the amendment. Two others, Washington and Delaware, have legislatures called for March 22 to set on the amendment. It is doubtful if either can organize and act before March 25, but if they do women can register that day. If registration is not permitted then, women will be unable to register in time to vote at the Augur primary as there is no other registration before that time, unless the gardner calls a special session of the legislature to amend the election laws to permit them to register.

The sentiment is particularly unanimous that it is "Leonard wood against the field" with Wood going stronger daily. "It is due to the fact" said one prominent citizen, "that Leonard Wood is four square in American land" and is facing all issues into a man. This he has always done, and will do as President of the United States." CHICAGO, March 17—Political excitement has been high in the "Windy CICS" since Col. W. C. Proctor, manager of the national campaign for Leonard Wood, has announced that General Wood will be entered in the primaries of Illinois. On that Illinois State campaign committee, Major John R. Lynch has been named. This is in keeping with the spirit of the managers of Leonard Wood in giving proper recognition to all groups of loyal American citizens. Gonzalez's expedition is being added relative to the showing Leonard Wood will make among people of our group, in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Ohio. In all of these states he has a popular following among people who are anxious to let their sentiments he known. OMAHA, NEB, March 17.—During a very busy visit here, General Leonard Wood, candidate for President, gave an interview to Rev. John Albert Williams, editor of the Omaha Monitor, one of the most substantial Race newspapers in the country. General Wood expressed his gratification that the people of our group comprehend his attitude with reference to dealing in a determined and constructive way with the problem of Americanism. Leonard Wood is not given to boasting, said Rev. Williams, "But his record demonstrates that he is a man of his word." CLEVELAND, OHIO, March 17.—A wrench was thrown in the machinery of the "Harding for President" following in Ohio this week by the declaration of The Cleveland Advocate, the strongest group newspaper in the state for Leonard Wood for President. The Advocate comes out in a lengthy loading editorial under the caption "General Wood The Man." Ornand A. Porter is the editor and Ralph W. Trier, former Auditor of the Navy for the treasury department, is managing editor. The Advocate predicates its stand on two things: first, because the backers of Senator Warren G. Harding have shown the disposition of playing the old fashioned game of political "hide and seek," and second, because Leonard Wood "has gone on record in favor of granting to the Colored citizen every right, and privilege constitutionally vouchsafed to every other citizen," as the editorial states. The Advocate continues: "Senator Harding's managers had a splendid opportunity to show there interest in and approval of the race's desire for justice, and for equitable representation by recognizing our plea for a voting representation from Ohio at the Republican National Convention, but instead they ishored that plea: they put us off with the old, time-worn promise of 'wait until next time'—four years hence. "Among all the Republican aspirants mentioned to the presidency, General Wood is the only one whose record and declarations give us hope—clothe us with confidence that he will administer justice, and justice alone." "It will be noted," said one prominent citizen, "that it is General Wood's Americanism that has the appeal, and not because he is reaching out for any particular class of people."

THE WEST END BUSINESS ASS'N WINS BOYCOTT Stork Sells Sarah Street Grocery To Co-operative Liberty Association Controlled By Negroes. Will Take Charge Next Week. After a fight continuing about six weeks, the West End Business Men's Association has won in its boycott of a Mr. Strikk's white grocer, whom they charged with hot-bottling, fair to his Colored patron. At a meeting last Tuesday night at Lane Tarnacle, it was reported that a deal had been made between Storkes and the Co-operated Liberty Association, whereby the store on Sarah street, between Fairfax and Finney, will be turned over to the Colored people within a few days. The West End Business Men's Association was supported in the movement by the Ladies' Auxiliary and a Citizens' Committee. The ladies were quite jubilant over the report that Colored people would now have charge of this store in their neighborhood. Mrs. W. C. Bridges, president of the auxiliary said they had worked hard to put Mr. Storks out of business, because they though he was not fair to the Negroes who had supported his business for many years, and now that the Colored people had bought him out, the members of her committee not only equally as hard to help build up the store in their right. Mrs. J. E. Hurt said she was pleased with the results of their work and she was now willing to join hands in helping to build the Colored Men's Business. The Co-operated Liberty Association is an organization composed of Negroes. Rev. B. G. Shaw is President and Attorney Geo. L. Vaughn is Secretary. It is understood that the store will be turned over to archers about Tuesday, the 21st.

LEAVING FARMS TO EARN BREAD LEAVING FARMS TO EARN BREAD Negro Workers Forced To Go To Cities Because Of Unfair Lease System. MEMPHIS. Tenn. March 17—More than 200 with their children were at the agricultural and home economic short course at Woodstock. Bolton Smith delivered the main address. The need of immediate need by white land owners of a fairer lease system, as has been advocated by the farm development bureau of the Memphis Chamber of Commerce was emphasized by every speaker during the meeting. "Good farmers are leaving the farms and going into the cities to work, about which they know nothing, just to get bread and meat." Robert Bernard, Negro farmer, stated. "The tenants have worked for the landlord's rent, a bale to ten acres, which at times has failed to acrue from the poorer land. At settling time in the fall fallen was expected to remain for the merchant who furnished supplies and the tenant himself. As a result many farmers have begun to cut crops drier and engage in other side lines, in which they were little versed." "Unless conditions are changed there will not be a Negro worker left on the farms. Another speaker declared that the Negro could not be expected to remain on the farm, when he finds himself unable to make enough to buy an occasional dress or hat for wife and daughter." ST.

"The Crucifixion" To Be Rendered At All Saints, March 28 The rendering of the Crucifixion the evening of Palm Sunday, March 28, at All Saints Episcopal Church, should be looked forward to not only as an event, interesting musically but also as a spiritual help in our preparation for the observance of holy week. The music written by the late Sir John Stainer, an eminent English organist and composer of much Church music, the oratorio presents on opportunity to hear in worshipful song the story of the last hours of our Lord on earth. The text for the most part is taken from the several gospels. In the opening we have Christ portrayed in the garden of Gethsemane praying with His disciples. This is followed by his condemnation by the people and deliverance to Pilate for crucifixion told in tenor and baritone solos. An organ interlude here typifies the movement of the people to Caryvary and burials into an elaborate chorus "Fling Wide the Gates!" Shortly Stainer introduces a tenor solo, "The Majesty of the Divine Hurlation," one of the most impressive of the work written in praise and adoration of the Savior's sublimeness and current as he hangs on the cross. A very familiar chorus, "God So loved the World!" showing the greatness, of God's love for us in the sacrifice of His son follows here and conveys in simple but telling harmony a depth of religious reeling not often reached by composers. The first words of Christ on the cross "Father, give them for the cross know not what the to give out by tenors and basses lead into the duet 'Thou liftest the divine petition' between tenor and bass. Full of meths, it is a further meditation on Gods love for us in the midst of His greatest agony—a plea for forgiveness—for those who crucify Him. An account of the conservation between Our Lord and the two male-factors who were crucified with Him. The one mocking the other asking to be unmembered in Paradise, the other declaring "Today shall thou be with Me in Paradise" is interestingly told by male voices. With the last seven words "It is finished! Father, into this ban! I command My spirit" and a brow "for Jesus the oratorio is concluded." Surely the joining in the devotion of such a work will refresh in our minds the sequence of events in that first holy week and thus be helpful in revealing our spiritual bodies an Easter indeed. The choir for this occasion will be specially augmented by outside voices and the solos will be taken by Mr. G. L. Amorretton tenor and Mr. E. C. Grady with the cooperation of Messrs Bate and Jones.

Any one of the four charges carries a prison sentence upon conviction. Emma Rosa, in whose home the girl was kept, is charged with conspiracy, abduction and conspiracy to permit seduction. James Murphy is charged with conspiracy and abduction. Investigation of the case results from visits of Gov. Allen of Kansas to Chicago and Springfield to assist aid of state and city officials.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today announced that telegrams had been sent to Governor Lowden of Illinois and to Mayor Thompson of Chicago, urging that all possible steps be taken to avert threatened race friction in Chicago. The telegrams report bombing of Negro residences and a determination on the part of colored people to defend their homes and their families. The text of the telegrams is as follows. March 16, 1920 Reports from various sources to the National association for the Advancement of Colored People inform us that residence of Negroes are being bombed in Chicago and that a feeling of danger bittersweet is growing up in consequence among the colored people who are determined to defend their homes and their families.

A SQUARE DEAL FOR EVERY MAN PRICE 5 CENTS CHICAGO PAPER SAYS THE WEST INDIES MAY NOT WANT U.S.RULE Says Negroes Are Greatly In The Majority And That Lynchings And Race Riots Are Unknown. Social Position Of Islanders Higher Than Race Here. By Associated Negro Press. CHICAGO March 17.—one of the most important expressions concerning condemnation of American prejudice and indifference that has ever been made, comes from the Chicago Journal, the oldest publication in the city, and democratic in politics. It is under the caption of "An International Aspect of Lynching" and affords a lesson for America that cannot be overlooked. "The suggestion that Great Britian relinquish her West Indian islands and the Bermudes to the United States" says The Journal, "as part payment of the British debt to this country has reached the stage of general debate. It must be added that up to date, one of the basic questions involved has not been mentioned by the debaters. "Neither Britian nor the United States is going to transfer populations from one sovereignty to the other without their consent. In the case of the islands mentioned, will that consent be given?" "A heavy majority of all these islands are wholly or partly of African ear desert. In Jamaica, the whites form only one per cent of the population, and though they are somewhat more numerous in the Bermudas, they are still in a minority. The Bahamas likewise show a heavy preponderance of blacks. "Under the British flag these islanders have a social position higher than people of their race enjoy in the United States. They have something much more important, absolute legal equality and constant, competent protection from the law. There are no lynchings in the British West Indies. There are no race riots, though something more than a generation ago, there was a disturbance in Jamaica which the governor suppress so considerable severity. "Meeting in the first six months of 1919, the last period for which an attributive figure can had twenty-five Negroes were lynched in the United States, only seven of these were even charged with assaults or women. Year by year, lawless violence of this sort goes on, and at irregular intervals (severe fire) like those of Springfield, East St. Louis and Chicago. "Will the Colored population of the British West Indies vote to leave their present security and join a country where members of their race are treated in this fashion? It seems doubtful. The islands are natural appendages of the North American continent. Under ordinary circumstances they would gravitate into some sort of affiliation with or allegiance to the United States. But between them and their natural tendencies and interests the Lynchers and race rioters of this country have placed a barrier which may well prove to be impassable." ST. LOUIS MINISTERS OPPOSE EXTRADITION OF HILL TO ARKANSAS The A. M. E. Ministers' Alliance in a meeting at St Paul Chapel Monday, and the Baptist Ministers' Alliance at the Tabernacle Baptist Church on the same day, drafted resolutions to send to the Governor of Kansas, protesting against the extradition of HILL to Arkansas, who is waging as the organizer of the Nergy farmers' association which was recently involved in the riots at Elaine. The belief is that HILL cannot get a frial and the scheme of the Lutheran and owners is to keep the Nergy from organizing to prevent unfair lease prices. Special to the Argus.

The audience is astonished at the hour of elaborate theatrical performances almost before the first act. Nemo, an animal and juggler, is the biggest man in the room on a slack wire performing a number of difficult feats. After juggling a tree of heavy balls he fires a dart while while it is suspended from his teeth. The art is exciting and wins merited prizes. Dick and Dick open the comic an- tion of the program. The man is a constant source of laughter and the house fairly streams because of his autopsies while singing a version of the (old fashion) Blues. The female also a hit with her song and dance number. A burlesque drama keeps the audience laughing "Go Get 'EM" Rogers enters in a whirlwind of singing and dancing that stars the audience to a spasm of laughter and succeeds in keeping up the fun when he is in the spotlight. His dancing is of the rough and tumble accentric style which requires the width of the stage to execute. A monologue of humorous stories and an imaginary fight are thrown in for good measure. William and Copeland close the show. The team opens in breve style, singing and dancing. Mr. Williams has a dancing in a bounce dance executing most of the known steps in the art accompanied by rattle bones" in his own hands. Miss Copeland wins applause with a song number and after a few good rounds of wit the team closes singing "Alexander Good Bye, with an oddity in military tactics that takes the house by storm and draws a curtain call." Summing it all up, it is "Some show" and its drawing crowded houses at each performance. ELMO LINCOLN AT THE BOOKER WASHINGTON.

Subscribe For The St. Louis Argus, $2.00 Per Year Pittsburgh Pa. Chronicle The point now raised merely emphasizes the disgraveful condition known to all, which has become a commonplace indeed, that the Negro accused of crime cannot be secured a fair trial or any trial at all in certain of our states. The Federal Constitution prescribes that such trial shall be the right of all. Indeed its framers did not see the state of virtual anarchy known by the contradictory term of "lynch law," which was to prevail in a section of our country. They did not imagine that any state would defy the plain provision of the Constitution in this regard and persist in their defiance. And it is this continued attitude of transgressing the fundamental Federal Law which has led to a demand for the enactment by Congress of a statute striking directly at the lynching evil. There is a decided inconsistency in the Federal government's present activity in enforcing the prohibition law upon all states while ignoring the continuous violation of other laws that are equally a part of the Constitution. THE NEW WHITE SOUTH Providence R. L. Journal Providence L. L. Johnson It is not to be wondered about the way the Decameron has been in the foreground in the Southern States, when one realizes the methods they have been using. Representatives are apportioned among the several states according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each state. In most of the Southern states many of the poorer whites are disfranchised as well as the entire Negro population. "When the right to vote * * * * * is denied to any number of such states, being 21 years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged * * * * * the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such citizens shall bear to the whole number of citizens 21 years of age in such State." ARTICLE XV of amendments to the Constitution of the United States was ratified March 30, 1870: "The right of the citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. The Congress shall have power to enforce the provisions of this article by appropriate legislation." As the Negro is disfranchised and they make up so large a portion of the population of some states, either the Constitution' of our United States should be followed and the Negro given his rightful vote, or, if the disfranchisement continues, the appointment of representation should be decreased accordingly, and thus a fairer representation obtained. They boast of the high-handed way they run things down here and flaunt their unfair methods in the face of Republicans. Why does Congress allow such procedure? Why not ask for fairplay and a square deal? HE GOT THE JOB Cinemati, Ohio, Tribune The colonel of a Colored regiment in France, charged the adjutant with selecting a suitable soldier to serve as an orderly at his billet. The adjutant combed the command for the proper man and finally found one who had been an elevator boy in a hotel—a smiling gracious "darkey." neat and respectful. "Do you know just what I mean by tact?" He was asked: "Yas, sah. "Wen it comes to tac" I use right on de spot. Why canned. jes las' I went I went into the bathhouse hear, mah billet, an' and found one of de madamcelles' dar. I jest, stepped back an' says, pardon Mousselur. Now ef dat won't tac, 'den I don't know what is." FACTS FROM OTHER SECTIONS Bipolochan Ala, New Constantly the evidence accumulates that the South treats the Negro with much less injustice, with more real sympathy and kindness in the most essential respects, than other sections of the country. The Birmingham, Reporter, a paper for Colored people, has in this weeks issue several pieces of strong evidence in support of that statement. That paper gets a news report from the Associated Negro Press, which properly contains many items of interest to the Negro race. Under a "Chicago dateline is a story of a mass meeting of Negroes to take steps to prevent a "tyrannical campaign of segregation going on in Kenwood and Hyde Park." This program of driving out the Negroes is stated to have included "the cowardly, murious bombing of property." Again under a St. Louis date, is a story of an organization of whites to keep Negroes out of a certain district. Here is a paragraph of it. "Rauskosk, who was elected president of the association, said after the meeting: 'We have decided that the Negroes shall not pass. We want them to stag but peaceably, but they have got to stay out. Forty two people who own homes in these blocks agreed that they do not propose to be driven out by a black invasion. However, all the news chronicled in the newspaper is not so harsh. Here is one from San Francisco telling of a favorable outcome of a struggle against race prejudice, in the matter of opportunity for honest work." "Negro steveholders will not be barred from employment on the water front. This was the decision reached at a meeting of the members of the Water-Front Employers' Union in the offices of the Matson Navigation Company. However, that decision reveals the same attitude in California that is found in Chicago and St. Louis. The South knows the Negro better than any other part of the land and while it might improve in many details, its treatment of the Negro there is more tolerance and appreciation of him than anywhere else. He is better off here, than elsewhere. THE GOVERNMENT HALLENGED HOUSTON, TEX. POST But it was the government of Kentucky that the mob attacked when they undertook to take the Negro away from Kentucky authorities, and by that act they placed themselves in the position of insurrectionists, challenging the authority of their government. When men do that, they ought to know they take their lives into their hands, and have no redress if they come to grief. TIME TO DELIVER Washington Cou., Birmingham Age Herald. come so exceedingly popular that every man seeking redress comes to congress demanding one. There must be a federal statute against lynching. George W. Cook, a professor at Howard University, representing the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, says so. He told the House Judiciary Committee that if such a law is not possible of creation under the constitution, the constitution should be changed amended. N. H. Thomas, an eruilite Negro, thrilled the committee by his references to the Washington race riots last July, and swore that if the government did not define means of stamping out lynching the Colored people "would be forced to fight for their rioters." Arthur B. Spingarn, a captain in the service, declared to the committee that there were 82 lynchings last year, 12 men having been burned at the stake "Amend the Constitution;" they urged in union. When handcuffs in that direction was cited, they again exclaimed "The Constitution has been amended and may be amended again." The Republican membership of the committee gave the spokesman careful attention. CALM FIRMNESS OF POWER Lausville, Ky., Courier The calm firmness of the State in asserting its power is a warning to others who might be tempted into acts of anarchy or violence. It says to them: "Gaze on this and beware!" Kentucky has set an example for the country, its stand will have a moral effect in estimable public value. In some minds falsely believed to be a land of tolerated law-breaking and bloodshed, the State now takes on a new look as a majestic champion of law and order. "Law and Order." Be that the slogan for all and more and will the people's government be vitalized into a thing to be respected and supported. ASK OMAHA ABOUT LEXINGTON Chicago, Ill. World Exposition Chicago, Ill., Fletcher-skinner Ask any citizen of Omaha whether or not it would have been better to drive that mob back with rifles or to allow it to make headway, to conquer it at even the terrible cost in human life which was exacted in Lexington or to allow it to conquer the law. There will be but one answer. The law-must be upheld. PROFAGANDA OF RACE HATRED Chicago, IL. News It would be idle to deny that the American Negro has serious grievances and special problems that challenge the attention of friends of justice and believers in the principle of equal opportunity. The solution of these problems will not be facilitated, of course, by the propaganda of race hatred. For that reason it is impossible to command too highly the spirit of the convention of the Lincoln League of America, which has been in session in this city. Education and patience rather than recrimination and denunciation, were the remedies curiously favored by the speakers at this notable assembly of representatives of the Negro race in the country. Lynching, dischurnishment in violation of law and various forms of discrimination were among the questions discussed, but the prevailing note was one faith in American institutions and the American instinct of fairplay. The remarkable advance of the American Negro since emancipation was gladly recognized, and in this advance was discerned the strongest pledge of further progress. OHIO ENVIES KENTUCKY Cleveland, Ohio, News The barbarous lynch law tradition dies hard, but such lessons as the Lexington affair should be of some avail. The Kentucky officials who uphold the law so resourcefully, courageously and successfully, regardless of the risk of getting themselves dialled by some of their neighbors, are entitled to the respectful compliments of all Americans who believe in law and abor mob violence. Ohio has reason to envy her neighbor the excellent grade of law enforcement she enjoys, in at least some instances—though it would be unfortunate were the notion to become general that the law does its work promptly and well only where and where there is danger of mob lawlessness. A FEE MORE "REGULARS" New York Teerraill I notice that the 400 regulars who were ordered to Lexington, Ky., for the purpose of preventing a Negro lynching had a very sobering effect on the lynch law populace.

NEGRO TOWN DOING WELL IN YIRGINIA By Associated Negro Press HIGHLIMM V. Va. March 1 What appears to be one enduring work of the War Camp Community is found in constructing, populating and managing the Negro town of Truxton, near Porismouth, which is being exploited as an example the United States Housing Corporation's endeavors. Truxton is now populated by over 200 Negro families, and is described an "the model Negro town." An article in the Southern Workman printed at the Hampton Normal and Industrial Institute, says the town is primarily built for accommodation of Negro war workers at the Hampton Roads Negro Base and is governed by a town council of nine members, management of municipal affairs being left entirely in charge of the Negro residents. The meetings of the council are open to all, and it is stated that a majority of the male members invariably turn out to attend the weekly sessions, thereby evidencing a commendable degree of interest in community affairs. All attending the meetings are privileged not only to enter into the discussions, but to vote on all matters. The council has never held a meeting secretly or behind closed doors against the public. The United States Housing Corporation appointed as town manager Fred D. McCracken, who has had considerable experience law bouncing problems and who is deeply interested in the industrial development of the members of his race. The administration aide from that part resided in the town manager, is carried out in detail by four committees of the council. One has under his supervision health and sanitation; another, law enforcement; one, social benefit and community welfare; and another, fire protection. These committees make written reports from their departments to the council at each meeting. Is there no written law, but every question is discussed from the point of view as in whether or not a civil recommendation can be made to the board in harmony with, or opposed to, the laws of Trupton. Examination of the facts have been made for the abuse of property, for misuse of the house and for dishonesty. AUSTIN, Tenn., Phil. M. Hancock Department of education, three school districts for North Carolina, one at Franklin View and another at Marshall where Wiley Tuberculosis is allowed, where the practical work of organizing and teaching in the rural schools is to be given full consideration.

Mrs. Clara Dorton, of Darby, sprang up in defense of the foreign-born. Miss Webb was undaunted. She returned to the assault and not only stood by her guns but said her argument was based on personal experience with foreign-born residents and she was convinced they should be barred from the country. The argument became general with the two women leading in charges and counter charges. Mr. Wilson rapped for order several times, no attention was paid to him, so he dislabeled the meeting.

CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES. Citizenship Rights Not to Be Abridged. 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION. The Wheatley Branch of the St. Louis Young Women's Association is now engaged in financial campaign to raise money for their budget to carry on their work. This work should receive the hearty support of the people of this city. Because there is no social agency which fits into the lives of the women and girls of this city like the Y. W. C. A. It is a home for women and girls; yet, more than a home, the "blue triangle" an emblem of development of the spirit, mind and body, certainly offers more to most of the girls than our home can afford. Aside from the Christian influence, there are other activities which afford real sport and pleasure under whole soque surroundings that makes life really worth while. The active workers, women and girls of the Y. W. C. A. are as a rule, active church workers, their vision having become broadened in Association work. The social touch of the Y. W. C. A. pays the community in sweeter, purer and nobler lives of the women and girls. Therefore, we owe it to ourselves to give liberally toward the support and maintenance of an institution which is so useful. Responsibility, the men cannot dodge the responsibility of playing a man's part in the present drive, for the amount they are asking is small. This is a mighty challenge to the men to show just how they stand on a very vital question—womanhood. Of the candidates who have thus far entered the presidential race, seeking the nomination at the hands of the Republican Party, General Wood, to our mind, comes nearer measuring up to the requirements than any other. The man, to be able to take the reins of this Government and guide the destinies of this people, during the coming four years, must, above every other qualification, be strong-minded and courageous. General Wood is not only strong and courageous, but is broad on Americanism and well versed in the big question affecting our national life. General Wood is the most popular candidate in the field who is aspiring for the Presidential honors, because his ideas are broad enough to cover the vital questions of today, and his platform is big enough to guard the rights of all the people. The hope of the nation at this time lies in such a man as General Wood. A bigger man will be hard to find. B. E. R. McJIMSEY l with a deal of interest. Mejima McJimmy, of Springfield state. To our disappointment in those broad and compre- sion that every statement one to consider, this is not taking the nations of the world platform of Dwight Da- nes Senator. Mr. Mejima new and order, equal justice or creed. We have just read with a deal of interest the reported speech and platform of E. E. E. Meijmsey, of Springfield, who is a candidate for Governor of this State. To our disappointment, the speech and platform were lacking in those broad and comprehensive views of the more vital issues of today that every stateman and public official must sooner or later come to consider, if this nation is to stand as the greatest Republic among the nations of the world. A strange feature about the two candidates to whom we have just referred, is the report that they have the backing of the "Republican Machine" in St. Louis. Of course, we believe in the Republican Party and the principles of the party of our fathers, but tried jokes we cannot swallow the "bunk" that some of the candidates are handling out with high-sounding phrases and call it Republicanism. We do not know Mr. McJimsey personally and the "pow-wow" at the Hotel Jefferson in evidence that he has no desire to get acquainted with a group of voters in this State. It was predicted that he would come through with fifty thousand majority; but we don't see how he is to even be nominated when he is alienating seventy-five thousand true Republican voters in this State. Mr. McJimsey boasts of the "Maching" being with him; that is well and good, but he forgets that a missing cog sometimes kills the power of the whole machinery. The report that the boycots upon a white grocer, by the West End Business Association had caused him to sell his store to the Negroes is surely worth consideration by the best minds of the day. The very fact that never before has such a move been made by Colored people as a redress of what they believed to be a wrong, shows that they are thinking as never before, and that the day has come, and now is, when no man can come to us and we live consideration at our hands and stab us in the back with impunity when we are not looking. The situation which gave rise to this fight on Mr. Stork was announced by the recital of many instances where white business men have come into communities, set up businesses and become rich off their Colored jobs and then moved to enter business in other neighbourhoods and refused to serve this same group who made them rich. Also the question of inferior service and general attitude quesit in the same situation. We have pointed to are the Negroes walking up. You long have we been greedy in wretches as allied from a perpetrated upon us at a certain moment.
