It will not do for the Republicans to rely too much upon the justness of their cause and the benefice of the principles of the party and felicitate themselves with the idea that the people are with them and the ticket will surely be elected. Not every man in this blessed country of ours is competent to think and judge as to what is his own best interest; thousands can be and are missed by the sophistry of plausible speaking, olly-tongued demagogues and do not realize that they have been made dupes until it is too late to repair the damage. Battles are sometimes lost by overconfidence in ourselves or by underestimating the strength of our opponent. The proper policy to pursue is to assault the enemy upon the hill tops, in the valleys, upon the march, in serried columns in battle array, in his chosen citadel everywhere until victory perches upon our banner. Now that the president has spoken, John G. Capers, Republican National Committeeman for South Carolina, says that the Afro-American should have his rights. He says; "The organization and operation of political parties upon purely racial classification is, to my mind, wholly inconsistent. SAMUEL R. VAN SANT. Republican Candidate for Governor of Minnesota ent with the spirit of our government, requiring, as our government does, well-defined duties and responsibilities from all of its citizens. In the exercise of citizenship, when the negro asserts a right and demonstrates that it rests upon intelligence and character rather than upon race prejudice or fancied and unearned distinction, his rights should be respected as an American citizen, regardless of his color. The minister of the Gospel is one of the leaders of his people. He should give them sound advice and direct them in the right way. In this campaign it is the duty of every Afro-American preacher who has the true interest of the race at heart to explain to his people the issues as they affect the Afro-American. He should show what the Democratic party has done in the line of depriving the Afro-American people of their civil and political rights and appeal to them to continue to support, with all their strength, the party which gave freedom to the slaves and enlarged opportunities to the freeman. At the conference of the M. E. church held at Washington last week a paper was read by Rev. Scott Wood of Lawrenceville, Va., urging the appointment of two Afro-American bishops to have direct jurisdiction of church members of the race. This is wrong. The Afro-American 'brethren should not draw the color line. It would be all right to have an Afro-American bishop but he should have jurisdiction over all churches of a diocese, without regard to the color of the communicants. "The Republican party does not have to assert its devotion to the Declaration of Independence. That immortal instrument of the fathers remained unexecuted until the people under the lead of the Republican party in the awful clash of battle turned its promises into fulfillment. It wrote into the Constitution the amendments guaranteeing political equality to American citizenship and it has never broken them nor counseled others in breaking them."—William McKinley. "The Democratic Congressional Committee is standing squarely on the Kansas City platform. That is the only Democracy we know anything about, and it will be the only Democracy there is until another National convention shall be held."—From an authorized statement of Secretary Edwards of the National Democratic Congressional Committee—Washington Star, July 21st, 1902. It seems that some of the Southern Democratic politicians are endowing to make capital of the obsolete section of Oregon's constitution prohibiting the Afro-American from voting. No attempt has ever been made to enforce it. Every Afro-American in Oregon has as many privileges as any white man, and has always had. When President Roosevelt was asked where he stood in reference to the "illy white" movement for the disfranchisement of Afro-American voters in the South, he replied: "I stand with Lincoln, Grant and Sumner." The Afro-American people can trust a president who stands with that immortal trio of true friends of the race. The spectacle of Democrats weeping Chronic calls a "parcel of saddle-colored niggers" in the Philippines while the party disfranchises hundreds of thousands of Afro-American citizens here at home, a spectacle of hypocrisy which all history may be searched in vain to equal. A prominent Democrat, in a recent issue, declared that his party would win in South Carolina. Of course the Democrats will win. That matter is settled in all of the Southern states when the Democratic committee meets about a month before the election and decides what the Democratic majority will be. "The Afro-American man can vote for whom he pleases. He can follow the dictates of his own conscience. That is why he has the franchise, to exercise it, and use it for his best advantage and the advantage of the country, which he has served so honorably with his sword."—President Roosevelt. --- The record of the Republican party is very clear on this matter of disfranchisement. The Republican party has always denounced disfranchisement in every National platform. The party cannot be held responsible for the action of the "illy whites" of the South. The old saying about consistency being a jewel is a proverb which does not appeal to the Democrats. They continue to yell about their love for liberty in the Philippines, but refuse to grant civil and political rights to the Afro-Americans of the South. The destiny of every Afro-American in the North is identified with that of his Southern brother. If the Democrats of the South succeed in wresting the franchise from the people of the race in the South, the same thing may be tried in the North. The Democrats of the south say that the Afro-American is unfit to travel in first-class cars and they have passed laws providing special "Jim Crow" cars for his accommodation. No Republican legislature has ever passed a separate car law. "Trust in God—but keep your powder dry." was the shrewd advice of a great commander. Good as the Divine Creator is, he leaves us to fight out our own battles. The Republican party will win if we get out the voters. "A man who will not do the duty and monotonous work of the regiment," continued the president, "is (to use a Southern friend's phrase) plumb liable to go wrong when a fight comes."—President Roosevelt. The Southern Democrats seem determined to keep the Afro-American down. In New Orleans the school board decided that no school for the race is to give instruction in any grade higher than the fifth. "The line of demarcation we draw must always be on conduct, not on wealth. Our objection to any given corporation must not be that it is big, but that it behaves badly"—President Roosevelt The Democratic party has never had any fixed principles or policies. It has ever been the blind instrument of every bad element that might for the time be beuppermost or seem to promise REPUBLICAN TICKET. Governor, SAMUEL R. VAN SANT. Lieutenant Governor RAY W. JONES.

P. WRIGHT. HON. F. C. STEVENS. Republican Candidate for Congress, Fourth District. Congressman Frederick C. Stevens, who has so ably represented the Fourth Minnesota District in the House of Representatives, will undoubtedly be re-elected on the fourth day of November with a triumphant majority. It is a fact, well known not only within the boundaries of his own district, but also in the state of Minnesota in general. Stevens' labors on behalf of his constituents have been crowned with the most signal success. He has proved himself to be possessed of sound judgment, a conscientious regard for the fulfillment of his duties and a thorough understanding of the needs of his district. Stevens' business is expedited in Congress and in the great departments. Among the notable achievements of Mr. Stevens in this capacity as representative of the people of the Fourth Minnesota District is the establishment of the postoffice headquarters for the county, and the county's Northwest, at St. Paul. The designation of St. Paul as the proper place for the location and maintenance of such headquarters, was only effected after continuous efforts which many important officials of the county did not meet with success, owing to the difficulties that had to be overcome. In this connection Mr. Stevens has recently secured an addition to the facilities already offered the public in the office, depriving a prompt and effective response to the matter. There will shortly be established in the down-town business district of St. Paul a new postoffice branch headquarters to be known as the Commercial Station. This station will enable the office to serve numerous houses to be delivered much more rapidly than has heretofore been the maintenance of the Commercial Station will necessitate an expenditure of $7,500 per annum, excluding the clerks and twenty-five mail carriers. When the to adoption will the rural free delivery system was first discussed considerable time and attention to the thorough study of the merits of this system should be one of the first in the United States to receive the full benefits of the same. He has met with extraordinary success in carrying out this plan and the result is that the counties of Ramsey, Burlington, and Compton compose his district, are supplied with rural free delivery routes to such an extent that nearly every farmer and country resident in the district, receives the mail daily. Washington county is the first county in the state to be compaired with routes of this character. As a prominent member of the committee on military affairs of the House of Representatives, Mr. Stevens has exerted every energy to secure the enlargement and improvement of Fort Stevens to its military position and increase of its military strength in an appropriation of $0,000,000 has been secured to this end and part of said sum is now being expended for the purposes mentioned. The plan for enlarging the garrison at Fort Snelling contemplates a post of a full regiment of infantry, two batteries of artillery and a complete squadron of cavalry, all under the command of Colonel Jacob Kline. The county of Washington owes a deposition of gratitude to Congressman Stevens for his success in washing an appropriation for the purchase of a site and prospective erection of a federal building at Stillwater. The sum of $0,000,000 has been appropriated for that purpose. Who was the first county officer to give an Afro-American an appointment to the office? An. Ann. Bell, then registered under New Republic candidate for county treasurer. Don't fall to vote for him. ```markdown ``` The phenomenal run made by Judge Grier M. Orn at the recent primaries evidence that he will land on the district bench. His eight years' service, the only court made him so many friends that almost everybody knows him. That he will be one of the successful candidates at the election goes without saying. The following Republican candidates are as good as elected, having no opposition: Senators A. R. McCormick and Ambrose Tighe. County Representative James Powers. In the First and Second wards J. E. Gregory and Walter T. Lemon are the nonimmies for the places in the legislature, and the Democrat Bernat Olsen, one of the Republicans is sure to be elected and probably both. The election of M. W. Fitzgerald as registrar of deeds seems to be a foregone conclusion. No man better deserves the office, and no man ever ran for it with so many friends in both parties. Mr. Fitzgerald stands for decency and honor in politics, and his great executive and business ability have more than once cemented his position and led it to victory when internal affairs were handled. He is a member of many fraternal societies and a believer in fraternal principles. His ability to fill the office is beyond the necessity of assertion. NEGROES SPEAK IRISH The Negro population of the island of Monterrat in the West Indies, which numbers about 10,000, to less than 100 whites, speaks "Irish in its purity" with as round and rich a brouge as any other man. He is that many years ago a British cruiser captured an African slave ship in the Spanish main, and the slaves were landed on this island in charge of the master-at-arms, who happened to be his nautical man. He taught the blacks his navigation. He taught them to this day their descendants resist with stubborn pertinacly any English lingual invasion. BURRIS ELECTED GRAND MASTER ROCK ISLAND, ILL., Oct. 23 — Henry E. Burry, who has just been reelected grand master of the Masons of the Illinois jurisdiction, has already occupied that position for several terms and is one of the most prominent Masons in the state. He is a native of Chicago has lived in Rock Island since 1870, and for some years has been in the government employ as a letter carrier. If poverty bring into question the good morals of the race, then let the race suffer in silence that enobling burden until providence provides a better friend. What fate has wrought, no man can change. "THE LEOPARD'S SPOTS." Dixon's Damnable Book Scored by Epworth Herald. The Epworth Herald has this to say of Tom Dixon's alleged literary production: "The large sale of Thomas Dixon's book surprises us. Its literary merit is not extraordinary. The sentimental hit is drawn out indeed, judged by the best student in the class, hardly be called 'a story at all.' The narrative was written to serve the author's one purpose throughout. That purpose was to misrepresent and villainize the hatred of the Negro race which Mr. Dixon manifests in every chapter is intense. The language employed is often brutal. In all our conversations, we are never heard anything which approaches it. We are not surprised that many of such persons have repudiated the book as a gross misrepresentation of the spirit of their people. There have been, and are, certain Negroes quite as bad as this author describes. No doubt of that. But a wholesale denunciation of a people, or generations in servitude and ignorance, is not of certain deprived representatives of that race, is unfair and contemptible. Mr. Dixon reflected astonishingly upon the intelligence of his readers both in South and the North when he presumed to paint his overcolored picture. "We read the book on a railroad train the other day. At night when we retired to our Pullman berth, we left the volume upon the seat across the aisle. In the morning we found the porter reading it with the deepest interest. He had been poring over it during the whole night. A clear-eyed, educated, gentlemanly fellow was this porter. "As he looked up from the book, his eyes widened. 'Can a leopard change his spots?' he asked in a hoarse voice. And then he answered his question. "Yes, yes, he can. I have changed mine. I was ignorant, without ambition, and careless of both mind and soul. But I saw my danger and my need to change. I am a man, even if my color is black. I graduated from college. I have built a home. I have saved my money. I have a wife and little children. I love God and keep his commandments. I drive the leopard can change his spots." "As he uttered these sentences his manner was most dramatic and intense. His eyes famed, and his lips trembled with passion. I did not wonder. Had he not been reading an infamous libel upon his race? The leopard's spots are buying "The Leopard's Spots." We suppose the kind who demand the latest sensation in literature, no matter what it is." is Ordered.

II. By an Act of the Legislature of the State of Minnesota, appended 28, 100, and known as House File No. 100, it is proposed to amend Article (8), Section Six (6) of the Constitution. This Section as now existing reads as follows: Section 6.

The existing Constitution authorizes legislation providing for a levy on the purpose of building roads and bridges, and provides for its use under the direction of a State Highways Department, which shall contribute at least double the amount of the State money exchanged for such purpose, subject also to other limitations. By an act of the legislature shares a 1-1/4 of one milt is authorised to be levied for this purpose: the Highway Commission is nobilised, and the proposed amendment is adopted, with the distribution of such funds in the hands of the Leg's statute, without limitation or restriction.
