NEGRO VOTERS DISTURBING ELEMENT The announcement of the dissatisfaction among the negro voters throughout the country brought on I by the failure of the republican leaders to make | good their promises in the distribution of patronage f is causing no little concern among republican party leaders. * L ■ A meeting of negroes from many sections of the country was held recently in Chicago at which time L resolutions condemning the republican party and its ; leaders for failure to give to the negro a reasonable number of appointments from the “pie counter” and ' their failure to endorse the republican party and its ' principles is causing much uneasiness in republican ranks. It is believed that before the republican par- ty can hope to swing the negro vote in line in the state of Illinois, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and other states that it will be necessary to satisfy "Cuf- fy” with some degree of recognition in a most sub- ’ stantial way. The recent exodus of the negro from the south has increased the negro vote in many of these states to large proportions and it is a matter with which the republicans must wrestle in order to harmonize the white and black element of that party. It makes little difference to the democrats which way these negroes vote. In the states to which they have migrated the republican party has al-, ready a large majority of the voters and the 'addi tion of the negro vote would only incrense that___ majority'without adding any additional electoral strength! Their departure from the south will cause the republican vote in this section of the country to lie reduced largely without the least effect upon the democratic party or its electoral vote. ■ The Springfield, (Mass.) Republican.is quite.ap prehensive 6f the outcome in the convention next year and. predicts that there is danger ahead for the ' republicans from this clement fearing that many o'f the negroes will go over to the democrats in these £2S§fe5.“ we do riot fes'leve that the- negro vote will cut much figure -one way or the other. • • The south will remain solidly democratic while the north will split up just as it has always done'hv respective of the negro vote. However, If the ne- - pro vote in Ohio and 1 Indiana should go to the demo crats, it would make certain of these states falling in 'ino for the democratic nominee, which would re sult in the nomination of a democrat. ■ There Is much .peculation over the grievances of r tho negro In northern states and it may be that for once, the negro will realize and see for himself that the republicans care little for him outsldo of his suf- frric . When they have used him, then he is dls- mirsed until another election and so on as it has been since the negro was given hts franchise. A brighter day is dawning In this country and the sooner the negro Is convinced that hfs best friends are among the white people of the south the bettor off lie will be. * !•* SLANGILY SPEAKING I like the bird who has the grit To stick to things and never quit; The duck mho plays the gamo In Btr!* -*■*€/ And takes his bumpings jvllh a smile; The bimbo who will rlsek a chant On bucking fate and circumstance The gink who's kind anti merry- hearted But finishes what he has started; The bimbo who will risk n chance Won’t whine and growl nnd past . the buck. Along with thnt I like the blolce Who’ll stake a fellow when ho'/ broke; A geek who will not let success Affect his simple humanness; A berry who has learned to piny And loaf at times along the way: A Joe who, once he Is your friend You can depend on to the end; A 'baby built on such a plan I think It’s safe to call n MAN.

These men are eXfcUljmft busi- m' .: men; they demonstrated their salesmanship and their ability to capitalize their stock in trade for an : enormous profit. It is human nature, however, to be 1 led into blue-sky schemes and pay the price regard- leas of value. How many business men would have placed such large sums of money as it took to stage '« fight In a legitimate advertising proposition or evi a invested in stock in some manufacturing con cern which would not only earn dividends on the amount invested, but would give employment to large numbers of laboring and office people. From c\«,y state in the union large delegations paid rail road fare to New York, hotel bills, a big price for an admission ticket besides the incidental expenses which arise on such trips and on such occasions. Is it right to encourage such money-making schemes from which no good comes to the country or to those who are responsible for the success of such under- i 1118 true 'the promoters and the principals !> pro... .rom »uiai engagements and the hotels and pother agencies in the locality where the fights are ■ held make money, but ts it worth the demoraliza- POon to the nation for the few to prof it JtSie expense ' of the general public. Ifey* believe in progress and advanced theories for tin. betterment of tho country in I commercial and civic lines and in the improvement of the morals of l&rcMty, but for the life of us, we can’t see a re deeming feature which the beastly prize fighters bring to the advancement and betterment of our na tion. However, there is no question but that a large percentage of the public is sold on prize fighting, even more so than on any other commercial proposi tion which may bring to them'profitable returns on their investments.
