ColoRED MEN AS REPORTERS.
Indignation in journalistic Circles
in Philadelphia.
New York Timas.1

new Y rK T1mes.l
PHILADELPHIA, March Con
siderable excitement was created here
today by the leaking out of fact
that for several days colored men
have been regularly employed as re-
porters on the local staff of the Phila-
delphia Times. Aleck Davis, mu-
latto, 35 years Of age, and until last
October policeman, was to-day en-
countered by reporters of two other
morning papers working up assign
ments to which they had been detail
ed. Davies is stalwart fellow and
said to be a graduate of the Howard
School at Washington. The other
reporters surprise soon gave way to
a feeling of indignation, and it is said
tacit agreement to boycotte the col
ored man has been entered into.
The ether colored men have not been
seen at work. A Philadelphia re-
porter was sent to BerdontoWn to-day
to inquire into the case of Phillip
Mathews, butcher, who swallowed
his false teeth on Washington's
birthday and has not been able to eat
any thing since. When the colorel
man walked into the parlor and de
clared: Il represent the Philadelphia
Times" the assembled Bordentown-
ers were dumb-founded, and at first
no one believed him.
The colored people of Philadelphia
feel an intense interest in this rise of
their race in the learned vocations.
There are now some Is colored men
on the police force, appointed under
the administration of Mayor King,
whose term will expire on April l,
and their prospective removal by
Mayor elect Smith is already a matter
of indignant comment. This intesti-
fies the feeling on the reporter ques
ton. The colored people of Phila-
delphia have always been numerous.
Some of them are wealthy and re-
spectacle, and as long ago as 1910
blue book of the elite colored society
was published.
There are three colored men reg
ula ly enrolled on the Times staff all
"on space" Davis has excited the
wrath of his colored brethren by OBJ
tanning admission to negro meeting
which was said to be secret, and to
which he was granted entrance on
the score of color. No one suspected
his motives, and his account of the
meeting was so cxtravagant that it
provoked letters of correction. The
Journalists Club of the Quaker City
is one of the best known in the coun.
try. Members Indignantly deny that
the new colored reporters will be ad-
mitted.

Representation on Principle.


THE untiring devotion Of over 3d.,
900 voters in this state to the Re
publican party certainly ought to give
them without question delegate to
the National convention. We have
men Of intelligence and acknowledged
ability who would in every way rep
resent our interest. The colored
men throughout this state are deter
mined to have recognition in county
and state conventions and arc just as
determined to have recognition in
the National convention. We tire
like all other people in our ceaseless
efforts to keep the party in control,
and then after each hard fought and
successful battle, have our claims ig-
nored. Mr.. Cameron's interest in
this state is beyond doubt opposed
to the advancement Of colorcd men if
we are to Judge from the absence Of
colored men in federal positions from
this state. Mr.. Cameron with all
the patronage he controls, never
thinks of awarding any Of the prizes
to the men who contribute largely
towards extending bis control in the
stats, for were the Republican party
not kept in control of affairs in this
state Mr.. Cameron's political exis-
tence would be brief one. The few
appointments which have been made
have been made by members Of con
gress from Philadelphia, in districts
which have large colored vote, by
such men as General Bingham, who
never forgets friend be he black or
white. There are other men in this
state who are inclined TO be more
liberal, some of them are prominent
in the management Of the party af-
fairs and are ever willing to
accord to the colored voters proper
recognition. Such men should be
urged by the Republicans to the
front, men who are broad enough
and liberal enough to recognize the
valuable assistance rendered to the
party by the colored voters, men who
are unprecedented and generous enough
to place colored men where they have
the ability at desks with white men
men who see no difference between
working at the pools and at desk
together or setting in convention.
And every colored man in this state
who knows j Donald Cameron knows
that he possesses the color phobia to
such an extent that while he would
possibly endorse colored man for
minor position, he would be 10th to
endorse one for anything else. The
rapid increase Of intelligence among
the coIored people will necessarily
place them in a position to insist
upon proper and honorable rccogni-
ton not on account Of there color but
upon the support they give to the
party and there fealty to party in
terests. Let the colored men Of
Pennsylvania insist upon there right
to delegate to the national conven-
ton and the men who are nominated
by that convention can count upon
our undivided support, for our record
in the past proves our true devotion
to the Republican party and its in
terest and it would not be amiss for
the party to remember that there is
time when forbearance ceases to be
a virtue.

When Night Workers Should Eat.

For night workers the best regimen
includes hearty breakfast when they
rise, which is generally from II to 8
o'clock; after this some moderate out
door exercise, which should be follow
ed by short interval of rest and relax
alton; then a good dinner, partaken of
between 5 and O'Clock, at least an
hour before beginning work. II labor
is to continue until 4 or o'clock in
the morning light nutritious repast
should be eaten shortly after midnight,
in order to fortify the system for work
during the hours Immediately follow
ing, when the vital powers are most
enfeebled. When work is finished,
and before retiring, simple lunch
should be taken, in the form of cup
of good hot broth or beef tea, or glass
of light wine and couple of crackers;
this will generally insure sleep by
withdrawing the blood from the brain,
where it has been concentrated by
mental effort. In ordinary cases of
wakefulness after night work, not con-
firmed by habit, a light meal of this
kind will usually prove to be aremedy.
By attention to these details, and by
taking sufficient sleep. night workers
can preserve their health under ordi-
nary circumstances COTson IN

into grocery store in very small
