On June 18 the Delegates Will Meet to Choose Candidates For President and Vice President—It Will Be the Largest Convention Ever Assembled—How the Big Event Will Be Handled. By JAMES ARTHUR. HE Republican national convention of 1912 meets on June 18, the one hundredth anniversary convention hall. The numerous bands in the streets and hotels come voluntarily pro are supplied by various candidates, delegations and marching clubs. The foregoing covers but a small part of the machinery of the convention. There are many other details, such as doctors and nurses, for possible contingencies. Among these contingencies is not included a free fight, or at least so let us hope. Fighting there will be but not of the physical variety. Yet there are many accidents that could happen in a convention hall, such as the breaking down of platforms or seats, fire, panics and the like. Delegates and visitors are liable to be overcome by the heat. All of these contingencies must be provided for. Various concessions, including those for lemonade, fans, flags, canes, buttons, etc., are to be given out. Noise producers are also in demand, although there are always plenty of these in human form. The national committee makes up the temporary roll. This means that it must hear all contests, of which there is an unusually large number this year. Of course the committee's decision is not final since the convention passes on the credentials of its own members. Yet, in fact, the committee's decision will be final in most cases, for the reason that those on the temporary roll will have power to vote as to determining all contests in the convention except those in which the delegates voting are personally concerned. Thus the national committee's action on these contests may determine the actual complexion of the convention, especially if it is close. Largest Convention Ever Assembled. The number of delegates in the Republican national convention is 1,076. There has been some confusion on this point owing to the fact that New Mexico claimed 8 delegates, whereas the call apportioned her only 6. If she is allowed 8 the total will be swelled to 1,078. In all the territories or dependencies, excepting Hawaii, the number is 2. Hawaii is allowed 6. New York heads the list with 90. Pennsylvania comes next with 76. Illinois is third with 58, Ohio fourth with 48 and Texas fifth with 40. Massachusetts and Missouri have 36 each, Indiana and Michigan 30 each, Georgia and New Jersey 28 each, California, Iowa, Kentucky and Wisconsin 26 each; Alabama, Minnesota, North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia 24 each; Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Oklahoma 20 each; Arkansas and South Carolina 18 each; Maryland, Nebraska and West Virginia 16 each; Connecticut and Washington 14 each; Colorado, Florida and Maine 12 each; North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island and South Dakota 10 each; Idaho, Montana, New Hampshire, Utah and Vermont 8 each; Arizona, Delaware, Hawaii, Nevada, New Mexico and Wyoming 6 each, Alaska, District of Columbia, Philippine Islands and Porto Rico 2 each. That makes just 1,076 *cm* the Republican national convention of this year is larger than any ever assembled [ ] [ ] [ ] the one hundredth anniversary of the beginning of the war of 1812. If this is an omen of anything it is that there will be war in that gathering, a thing so probable that it needs no omen. One of the battles of 100 years ago was at Fort Dearborn, standing where Chicago now stands, thus lending local emphasis to the foreboding. If further proof is needed that there is to be a fight it is furnished by the fact that William Howard Taft and Theodore Roosevelt are the leading candidates. Robert M. La Follette and Albert Baird Cummins are also candidates and are also something in the fighting line. The convention hall is Chicago's famous coliseum that has seen so many conventions in the past. It is the successor to the coliseum built for the Democratic convention of 1896, when William Jennings Bryan won the nomination by his "cross of gold" speech. The writer was present on that occasion and still remembers the tingle of that oratorical triumph. For the coming convention the new coliseum is being remodeled and refurnished. This was all worked out on paper long before the convention, and as soon as the building was turned over to the national committee a force of carpenters began to rush the work. Railings were to be put in place, seats arranged and all the thousand and one details to be looked after throughout the vast hall. Thousand and One Details. Another problem has been the decorations. This contract was given separately. The state guldons, festooning of the national colors, display of flags and of portraits all had to be planned carefully and executed quickly. The printing and giving out of tickets were also a man's job. There are many varieties of these admission cards, as delegates, alternates, national committee, stage, press and visitors in all the various sections of the building must have tickets for each session and each day and for numbered seats. The tickets are under the absolute control of the national committee. Because of the press of visitors the giving out of these pasteboards has to be carefully guarded. The hall seats something more than 11,000. These represent only the beginning of the details. Elaborate preparations have had to be made for the press. Not only does every important paper in the country send one or more representatives, but the press associations have a large number of men, and there is a small army of telegraph operators, stenographers, messengers and other helpers. There is also an army of doorkeepers, ushers and sergeants-at-arms. Badges must be supplied, and there are almost as many kinds of these as of tickets. Music must be provided although this is comparative simple, since only one official band is stationed in the con- MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., JUNE 15, 1912. before. The delegates alone would make up an ordinary sized military regiment. There are as many more alternates, several hundred newspaper men, several hundred more distinguished citizens, convention officials and Mr. Common People, with his numerous family. Most Americans are now familiar with the scene presented by the average national convention either through having attended at least one such gathering in person or through pictures and descriptions in the press. In their main features these conventions are all alike. There are variations, of course, due to particular causes, but the scene presented to the eye, the course of procedure, the speeches, the balloting, the cheering, the decorations and the other accessories that go to make up these popular party assemblages make one national convention as like another as two peas in a pod. Color, Perspiration and Enthusiasm. The writer has attended eight national conventions and has kept fairly close track of others for a matter of twenty-five years. A general description of one will answer for all. They are always swelteringly hot. Pack from 10,000 to 20,000 human beings in one building in June or July and it could not be otherwise. The three chief features are color, perspiration and enthusiasm. A great barulike structure, with girders, pillars and every other exposed projection festooned with bunting and flags; seats arranged in a vast amphitheater, sloping up from the pit in which sit the delegates; guildons on which are the names of the states on long poles attached to delegates' chairs along the aisles; beyond the circle of delegates the chairman's platform, banked with distinguished guests; up aloft in some little cubbyhole of a balcony the band, which keeps up an incessant playing as the delegates and visitors stream in; the audience divided off into sections by railings; perhaps there is a gallery or two away back on the outer fringes of the great hall; everywhere the national colors, in wreaths, rosettes and garlands, flags of all sizes and suspended at all angles; gigantic portraits of famous party leaders of the past—that is the picture. After going through the press of the crowds, passing the doorkeepers and threading our way through long mazes to our seats we take in all these details one by one or get their effect in mass. The seats are now rapidly filling. Down in the pit there are a few knots of delegates. Soon there is a salvo of applause as some party leader enters at the head of his delegation. This is redoubled as another familiar figure takes his place. Perhaps it is a senator, a well known governor or a popular congressman. Maybe it is only a state boss. The hour arrives for opening the session, but still there is no sign of life at the chairman's table. Perhaps he is engaged in some important caucus or conference. The delegates and spectators continue arriving, and the band industriously pounds away at ragtime, marches and national alrs. Now the chairman suddenly appears at his place. If it is the opening session he is the chairman of the national committee. His gavel whacks like a distant woodpecker. The hubbub and buzz of conversation gradually cease. The chairman announces prayer, though we do not hear him, but arise because everybody else does. Possibly we catch some echo of the minister's voice, possibly not. If God doesn't hear him any better than we do the invocation in vain. Anyway, it is ended, and we are all again seated. Then the secretary reads the call. Nobody tries to hear this, and the buzz of conversation resumes. Now the temporary organization is announced and the temporary chairman introduced amid cheer. He is usually an orator with a voice of some carrying power. Consequently we can follow him, at least in spots, and join intelligently in the applause that marks the periods. This is supposed to be a keynote speech, profusely interlarded with praise for our party and abuse of the other, and we cheer both indiscriminately. Coming to the Climax. At the end of the temporary chairman's speech confusion reigns again. The various delegations are now announcing their members of the committees on credentials, on platform and on permanent organization. This does not interest us, and we use our eyes instead of our ears. Likewise we use our fan, if we are so fortunate as to have one, otherwise our hat or a newspaper folded fan shape. The later sessions vary from the opening one, the excitement gradually mounting. The report of the credentials committee brings a clash of oratory and of voting, the permanent chairman makes another keynote speech, the platform is liberally cheered and adopted after several speeches have been made for and against it, and at last the boards are cleared for action. The hour has come for the nomination of a candidate for president of the United States. In the Chicago convention the call to order will be made by Victor Rosewater, acting chairman of the national committee since the death of Chairman Hill of Maine.

As to the other events of that great gathering up to and including the nomination of the Republican candidate for president—well, I am not now working at the trade of political prophecy. However, I will hazard just one prediction there will be a fight. Necessity For Educational Clubs. The organization of educational clubs in the large cities and rural districts for the purpose of encouraging public school attendance, as recently suggested by President John O. Spencer of Morgan college would be a direct benefit to our educational interests. It would not only encourage those who are in school, but would inspire many who are indifferent to take advantage of the opportunities for obtaining an education which are open to them. The suggestion is most timely, and the need for such organizations is imperative. NATIONAL DEGENERACY. Lincoln Abhored Oppression and Denied Hyppriay. The speech of Abraham Lincoln in 1855 regarding the political situation and the tendency to disregard the rights of human beings to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is strikingly applicable to the condition of affairs in this country at the present time. Mr. Lincoln said: "I am not a Know Nothing—that is certain. How could I be? How can any one who abhors the oppression of the Negroes be in favor of degrading classes of white people? Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation we began by declaring that 'all men are created equal.' "We now practically read it. 'All men are created equal except Negroes.' When the Know Nothings get control it will read. 'All men are created equal except Negroes and foreigners and Catholics.' "When it comes to that I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty—to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure and without the base alloy of hypocrisy." Color Prejudice and Politicians. This race question bobs up at the most unseemly times, and especially when folks are running for office, says the Baltimore Afro-American Ledger. It is an awful thing to be continually explaining why one did this or that. But as long as men will let their prejudices stand in their way such things will continue to happen, and this has reference to Jew, Negro and gentile. CONFERENCE OF THE NATIONAL COLORED DEMOCRATIC LEAGUE. A call has been sent out by the Colored National Democratic League with headquarters at Washington, D.C., to the colored committeemen and representatives of every Democratic Club in the country, connected with the League, to meet in Baltimore on June 24th next. The plan of representation is to be one committeeman at large from every State with a confee to be elected by every club.

KING Recognition of the Services of an Able Editor to Center in His Promotion to Chancellorship of Knights of Pythias—Warm Friend of Ambitious Young People. Dallas, Tex.—With due respect to the scores of our people in this state who are daily doing all in their power for the development of our race here and throughout the nation, Texas really can boast of at least two real leaders who are progressive and constructive. One is the Hon. R. L. Smith, the moving spirit of the Farmers' Improvement society and president of its bank, and the other is the original of the cut illustrating this article, the Hon. W. E. King, editor of perhaps the most widely read paper in the southwest, the Dallas Express. Mr. King halls from Mississippi. Halls is the word, for he belongs to most every secret fraternity in Texas, and members of few organizations can ask him from where he halls, or whatever word their ritual prescribes, for he is able to meet the requirements of their code as to state limitations. Sometimes he has to answer in a half dozen or more different ways, but finally he locates his accoster, and with an iron grip that is characteristic of the indomitable spirit that pushes him upward and onward he grasps as man to man the hand offered him and slaps his newly made friend on the back and says, "Glad to meet you, brother." Editor King makes friends easily, and probably no man has a larger personal acquaintance in Texas than he, and along with Bill McDonald he shares the honor of being the best known man in Texas. As the editor of a paper of fearless convictions and the possessor of a peculiar style of writing what he says is read, and what he is readable. Few people in Texas fail to know of the Dallas Express, but invariably they refer to it as King's paper. The Dallas Express, not just as a paper, but as a business institution of merit. When he dies he wants his only monument to be the Dallas Express, and the flowers for which he craves after death are the bright eyed, big brained. EDITOR W, R. KING. level headed young men and women he hopes to leave in charge of his paper and its plant. Some men accuse Mr. King of being stern—very stern—but no aspiring youth ever found him other than sympathetic. His greatest enemies are men against whom he had no ill thoughts, but fought because they heeded not the cry of the colored youth and persistently helped to close the door of opportunity against them. At present Mr. King is the leading spirit among the men of the race who are fighting Cecil Lyon, whom he terms the Lilly White destroyer of the Republican party and its principles in Texas. Others are fighting Lyon secretly and under cover, but the editor of the Express fights always in the open and when racial interests are at stake asks for no quarter and gives none. He gives his time and money and space in his paper to the present fight, and so far as is known not one has given anything to further the fight or assist him. Alone he has braved the storm and stood like a stone wall against the enemy. The masses of our people in this state are beginning to realize more and more the results of the efforts put forth by Mr. King in their behalf. He has been an active participant in the various secret societies for many years. He is not satisfied with simply being a member of a society, but has given them the benefit of his knowledge and experience freely. His efforts have been directed along constructive lines. In view of the fact that Mr. King has never sought to hold an office in any of the secret societies to which he belongs and to which he has given much time, thought and labor and in recognition of his unstinted services to the race along other avenues of usefulness, his friends all over the state have decided to present his name for grand chancellor of the Knights of Pythias. His business acumen, his foreg sight and his training in life's great school of experience make of him an ideal man for the place his friends desire him to fill. RISING YOUNG SONGSTER. Ode to Ethiopia Gave E. S. Jones His Passport to Freedom. Edward Smyth Jones, a native of Mississippi, bids fair to rival Paul Laurence Dunbar as a writer of verse. Mr. Jones has long cultivated the muse and gained much public notice a year or so ago when he was arrested as a vagrant while trying to enter Harvard university. "The Ode to Ethiopia" is a historical epic and is regarded as being responsible for his being released from the jail at Cambridge, Mass., where he was confined after being arrested at Harvard. Even Judge Arthur P. Stone, who dismissed the charge of vagrancy against him, said, "Gentlemen, I do not wish to be judge, but this is better poetry than I find in the current magazines." The Boston American called this poem "his passport to freedom," while the Boston Globe said of him and his "Ode to Ethiopia," "One of those geniuses who, like Paul Laurence Dunbar and Alexander Dumas, occasionally comes forth to proclaim the intellectual equality of the Negro race." Mr. Jones is the author of a book of poems called "The Sylvan Cabin," with an introduction by W. Stanley Braithwaite, the writer. The "Ode to Ethio- EDWARD SMYTH JONES. pla" is a classic and is not written in the dialect which characterizes most poems on the Negro. It gives a recapitulation of the deeds of the race in all ages. It begins: Thou sovereign queen of Afric's sunny strands. I smile my lyre to sing thy praise unsung In strains far sweeter than seraph's bands A aisy deep in my bosom's core is sprung. Fair queen, although my years as yet be young. Deep thoughts and musings of the history king Where odes and fiery epics long have hung. Live murries in my immortal soul And strike sweet Lydian measures on my harp of gold! This ode consists of nineteen Spencerian stanzas, and into it the author pours his soul. A perusal of it thrills one with pride for his race and animates his soul to put forth greater efforts. He pays the following beautiful tribute to the virtue and charms of women: I call thee angel of this earth, For angel true thou art In noble deeds and sterling worth And sympathetic heart. In peace be true gom afar For what they might have been. But sing the praise of those which are, That dwell on earth with men. This young versifier of the higher life of the race is paid the following tribute by William Stanley Braithwaite in the introduction to "The Sylvan Cabin:" "To this I can only add that, good as these are, they give us hope for better from one who ought certainly to go on and upward." The Washington Star says: "Though a representative of the race which has given Paul Laurence Dunbar to the world, he strikes an even higher note than that lamented pioneer in the field of Afro-American poetry. There is no suggestion of the 'plantation' in these verses, which are unidentifiable as the output of one born in Mississippi." Race Wants No Color Line Officials. Just as the colored people protested against the appointment of a man to the supreme court who was known to harbor prejudice against them in the matter of legal and civil rights, in like manner will the voting citizens of the race conduct themselves in the coming national election. | | | ff ff | fff ee es oe ‘We BEG that those who send notes will Write Facts Plainly—on One Side of the Paper—Leave a Space between each Item, and Use Com- mon Sense.

Rollins, Whe Believes In According to Every Man Fair Treatment. 7 ‘Troy, 0.—From the inception of the abolition movement through the great civil war, up from slavery, on through the reconstruction period, the colored race in America has had severe struggles anc mighty difficulties to hinder its progress, yet there 1s encour- agement in the fact that history re- cords the rise of no race or individual achievements which have conte with out strong effort, ambition and per- sistence in the face of oppression. We give below the first of two ar- ticles from the pen of a white man who has been a firm friend of the col- ored people for more than half a cen- tury. Horace J. Rollins of Troy, O., 4s one of the old guard, who knows the ordeal through which our people have passed, their present environment and the attitude of those who would hinder rather than help the cause of justice and equal rights for all American citl- tens. | Of nature's answer to man’s race ‘question Mr, Rollins writes the fol- lowing: The whole world continues to be disturbed by certain phenomena tn- eddent to racial relations. Countless people—many of them classed as philosophers—speak and write of the “problem;” there is no end of utter- ances that are misleading and barm- ful, yet now and then an observer notes facts that are impressive, and good suggestions are sometimes of- fered. However, almost invariably these are fragmentary and as discon- EE. (a Pe tlie J ise sca aa wm, 7 ny 7 mh Wa rit 63 i § ii: ‘ieee mected as stray segments of a circle. They fail to indicate a symmetrical system. Recently a professor of the Joudon university declared that, as the Cau- casian cannot thrive in the hot coun- tries and as the natives of them do flourish in the north, the white type, being less prolific, will be pushed to isappearance, This {s interesting and if it were true would be quite startling. Nature (waiving her arrogant egotism and destructive selfishness) appreciates the white man and will use him rightly. ‘The gloomy groping has various as- pects, an Instance of which shows won- derful contrast to the above, especially as to complexion. It is the promulga- tion that pictures the advent of a big, strong, unscrupulous blond, who, as a superman (or a superhog, for appar- ently there is small difference), is to destroy all other citizens, the good, the true, the beautiful, not caring even for the lovable and useful brunette, whose milk {s said to be exceptionally ‘Fich. His prognosticated portrait 1s not pleasant, and we will not have him. Bome time ago a writer of inter- national fame in earnestly denouncing race prejudice declared of it, with- out offering radical explanation, “It ts & monster begotten of natural instincts and intellectual confusion.” In the varied forms of it there certainly is @uch confusion. It is obvious in the presence of the strange and multiform manifestations and persecutions, even destroying life as an imagined duty, whicb mark the new century, in Burope and the United States, dis- tricts where education, legal questions and Christianity are much Giscussed ‘and where the inference would natu- rally be that justice and kindness are what each one owes to all others. Buch obscurity must be cleared and also the foggy conclusion that this’ Prejudice is from “providence.” But fm order to classify this intellectual confusion truth so that it becomes available we must consider the dis quieting fact that the monster 1s “be- gotten of natural instincts.” Let us see how it cnme about that a force #0 ugly sprang from a normal impulse, Primitive man, lke other promising | animals, developed a necessary caution ‘as to contact with people queerly and mysteriously unlike bimself. ‘This was protective, and rightfully ee ee a a ae typical of the child-man and shows un- takable fear upon the intrusion of faces into the nursery and in feeble way attempts to avoid them. Property, welfare and life itself have been conserved simply by the “offish” instinct. It has also had temporarily ‘&@ wonderful use, pertaining to certain Yalues acquired in the condition of Factal integrity, which we will con- Sider presently. ‘Therefore we do not think of shyness in general as being ‘& bad or mean quality. However, it is an involuntary ac- Imowledgment that intelligence 1s lack- ing requisite to right conduct of life. It bars the reciprocal Telations neces- sary to growth of civilization. So primitive shyness or avoldance cannot ‘always remain commendable. With ‘general development it elther takes an ‘advanced form—as, for instance, just ‘eircumspection—or, with changing re- lations, it readily becomes pernicious. ‘The biologist knows that when nor- mal conditions are exaggerated or strained they must become abnormal. In a similar way a racial distrust, ‘once temporarily useful, drifts Into unwarranted obstruction or ruinous antipathy. ‘The egoistic tendency, en- couraged by sickly intelligence, invites Prejudice to come in and expel reclp- Tocal justice. While this may be due to mistake on the part of some, tt real- Jy is a phase of selfishness. ‘There ts, of course, monstrous self- fshness not {dentified with prejudice and not involved with racial relations. It distresses humanity today tn the forms of official betrayal of trust, child labor schemes and monopolistic greed. Like race maladjustment, such mant- festations begin in unreasonable ex- tension of natural impulse and result in degradation. ‘This particular perversion, we be- Meve, as are those, 1s now in the climax of its ugliness. Such phenomena con- stitute the moral interregnum which now shamefully and fatally afflicts this country. ‘True civilization seeks the balance between egolsm and altra- ism. In view of certain facts, some of which we briefly indicate, and of slg- nificant typal mantfestations untversal- ly evident, “intellectual confusion” ts no longer pardonable. ‘The popular movement for education fs on a surer footing than ever before, oubtless because of increasing inter- est in the philosophy of evolution. In fts ght, ractal phenomena must be observed. ‘As for general safety—watving the {dea of non-natural assistance and that of human reason—there 1s reme- @ial action in Nature herself, An instance of this truth is the spontane- ‘ous movement of racial convergence, ‘which proceeds as surely and about as quietly and safely as does the work- ing of the law of gravitation. The result 1s publicly commented upon by some who do not understand it. A magazine writer has noted the increas- ing number of people of mixed type, declaring that ft 1s not much matter if scholarship can offer no explanation of this, as it will presently explain itself! Long ago the writer entered this field, and in 1888 a monograph ap- Deared, “Nyetta Segal” (Dillingham). At least a few called tt radical and adequate asa ploneer sketch. ‘These claimed for it priority as to identifica tion of the phenomenon with evolu- tional laws, for there was dearth of the pertinent in textbook and cyclo pedia. SHREWD BUSINESS MAN. Buccess of J. Jamison, the Los Angeles Iron Merchant. One of the most gratifying signs of the, progress which the race is making is Geen in the thrift and industry of many ambitious individuals who tn the far west are engaged in lines of bust- ness other than the ordinary. The manufacture of cotton fabrics, soap, statuary and the like has beer under. taken. Quite out of the ordinary In- deed we find Mr. J. Jamison of Los Angeles, Cal., engaged in the iron bus!- ness with marked success. He has a large yard on Santa Fe ave- nue, in Los Angeles, with improved fa- cilities for handling the commodity and employs a large number of per- sons in his establishment. By buying several tons of iron at a time he ts able to secure more reasonable terms. ‘This has been one of the features of hts success im the business which he has given careful study. ‘Mr, Jamison is well known among the large tron manufacturers of the state, who recognize in bm those nec essary elements which characterize the successful man of affairs, Mr. Jamison started his business in a small way. He proceeded cautiously, keep- ing a close watch on receipts and ex- penses. By this method he bas kept on the safe side in a line of business not hitherto undertaken by our people. Splendid Work of the Rev. D. J. Jenkins Rev. D. J, Jenkins, founder and pres- ident of the orphanage which bears his name in Charleston, 8. ©. is doing a splendid work of uplift among the peo- ple. He not only keeps the institution up to a high standard of efficiency in its work aud care for the orphans, but takes a leading part in all good move- ments for the benefit of the race in the community. The Rev. Mr. Jenkins is also the successful pastor of the New Tabernacle Fourth Baptist church. Banks Operated by Afro-Americans.

Each Captain General should com- municate with me, so that I can ar- range our line of march and assign each Commandery to their respective position therein, This is very im: portant.

Get ready for the grand parade to be held on that occasion. Let us show the world just what we can do in this matter. It will require the united efforts of all who are interest- ed in the success of Templarism to make this a day long to be remem- bered among our number. ‘Yours fraternally, Howard W. Pinn Gayhead St., Boston, Mass. POLITICAL INACTIVITY. Prof. Kelly Miller in the “Political Capacity of the Negro,” says that elimination of the Negro from office means his ellmination from politics. The Negro should have a voice in the affairs governmental, both local and national, in proportion to the sup- port he gives that government. ‘The Negro 1s due some political representation as a matter of right, not as a matter of favor. Numerieal- ly we are strong enough to demand this. If we get together. ‘The Negroes of Hennepin Co., should interest themselves in the State tickets. UNLIMITED LAWLESSNESS. The sentiment of the American public knows no bounds, They chose any time or place to perform any ceremonies which may appeal to thelr fads or fancies. — The lynching of Negroes by white men fs prevalent, yet the lynching of white men by white men has proven that this lawlessness {s not born of Prejudice alone, but out of a custom Practiced by these public execu: tloners, who disregard the written laws of the land and hold justice as a mockery.

RUSSIA AND THE SOUTH. (St. Paul Ploneer Press.) It is entirely proper that the President of the United States and the Congress should make formal protest, even to the abrogation of a treaty, against Russia's failure to recognize passports granted to American citizens of Jewish birth, but there is a little lesson at home that should be learned by some of the Southern Congressmen who have been most bitter in their denunciation of Russia for "discriminating against American citizens on account of their religion or race." Many of the states of the South openly discriminate against a class of American citizens "on account of their race." Most of the Southern States have constitutional amendments or election laws which disfranchise the Negro voters for no other reason, whatever the various excuses offered, than their race. It will be at least interesting to watch these Southern Congressmen who have been so bitter in their denunciation of Russia and see if they will demand that the Legislatures of their own states cease their discriminations against any American citizens on account of their race. READ THE STAR-IT'S NEWS. J. A. B. EX-PRESIDENT THEODORE ROOSEVELT. THE SOUTHERN REPUBLICAN SCANDAL. The president is like the high-minded president of a public service corporation who wants his general manager of counsel to get results in council and legislature, but is unwilling to hear anything about the necessary means. We do not hear of any refusal of the president to permit Southern delegates to the Republican national convention to vote for him, but he is taking great pains to pass on the other side of all unpleasant details involved in arranging for this support of his candidacy. The Republican party in the South is a permanent scandal. It has no following, since its Negroes have been disfranchised and its whites ostracised, and only leaders enough to fill the federal and organization offices. Extracts from Minneapolis Tribune. It's a year old, but true. DILLINGHAM HOLDS MANY JOBS. Mr. John H. Dillingham has been appointed janitor of the Senate during the extra session. That's one. He is also employed as janitor at the Sity Hall. That's two. He has the option on the job in the Capitol once held by Mr. R. M. Johnson, which he will accept when the Legislature adjourns. That's still two. There are other political henchmen who have no jobs. (Mr. Dillingham hires Mr. Harry Robinson.) Now, who is responsible for such Tammany tactics and such dispensation of political patronage? Another case of jobs and not justice, and the Negroes are responsible for this Dillingham monopoly. A SUGGESTION. In view of the fact that the National Negro Educational Congress which meets in July, will bring among us another element of representative Negroes, we hope that some definite arrangements will be made for their entertainment. The people of Minneapolis have profited by a recent experience. The Forum should take the initiative and request that the various churches, clubs, and fraternities send their delegates to the Congress, and also invite them to unite with the Forum in a Civic Committee to represent this city. Let us do things decently and in order. Each one will be accorded his social standing. Get the best results by unity of effort—and regardless of the former status of the Congress, it will be a success, if you desire to make it. The Assembly Hall in the Court House is the proper place to hold our large civic gatherings. This should be considered by our entertainment committees. It has been proposed that the delegates attending the Congress be received at two churches. This is unfair to the other churches and will result in Factionism—and confusion. Get the Assembly Hall and avoid the usual aftermath. The Negro taxpayers allow you that right, it is your pribilege to enjoy it. EDUCATE, AGITATE AND EMANCIPATE. TWIP CITY STAR ODORE ROOSEVELT. RECORD OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. Colored Americans having been permitted to be disfranchised in the Southern States under Republican rule. The appointment of ex-Confederates and Southern Democrats upon the Supreme Court of the United States. The appointment of ex-Confederates and Southern Democrats in the Cabinet by President Taft. The declaration of President Taft that he would appoint no colored man to office who may be objectionable to the white people. Race discrimination permitted upon the railroads South, and the enactment of "Jim Crow" car laws. The removal of Southern colored office holders in the South from office and the appointment of Democrats and ex-Confederates in their stead. With such a record for the Republican party to go to the country on in 1912 to capture the colored vote will be bound to be effective. The colored voters throughout the country have opened their eyes, and between now and 1912 they will keep them open.—The Bee, Wash. D. C. The Editor of the Bee, W. Calvin Chase is a delegate to the Republican Convention. The record remains the same. What are you going to do about it? RACE HAS HIGH IDEALS. Pres. Taft recently said that "the Colored Race has high ideals." That's just why they are supporting Roosevelt in whom they realize a champion of right, not an apologist like Pres. Taft, who has sustained the Dred Scott decision by refusing to appoint Negroes to offices wherever it was objectionable to white men, and who by the appointment of Southern Confederates to the Supreme Bench has denied the Negroes their Constitutional Rights. Roosevelt never closed the door of hope in the face of the Negro.
