ST. Joseph's mission school at Will
mington, Del, is one of the largest and
best equipped schools founded by
Roman Catholics for colored boys in
the United States. 1t has nearly 300
boys who are learning trades. Rev.
DR.. DeRayter, formerly of Baltimore,
is the founder and director. Young
men and young ladies of the Catholic
churches in this city are soliciting aid
among it's members for this institution.
1t is one of the very best means of aid
ing the cause of the Negro. In this
church there is annual collection taken
for the purpose of esta blishing schools
and aiding Negroes IN education aud
along the lines of progress No church
in existence is doing more practical
work for the Negro than the Catholic
church. 1t does noC establish separate
church when there are not enough
members to support it, but they are
allowed and made welcome in the
finest churches of the land belonging
to this faith. A cardinal nor a bishop
never has SO much religion that he is
compelled to ignore or slight the
brethren in black. Bishop Ireland
said at the worlds fair meeting Of
Catholics, in answer to the questions
as to having a few delegates from the
Negro Catholics who We're holding a
meeting in Chicago at the same time,
Tell them all to come in and l wish
to God that there We're more of them.
The decayed limbs of religion must be
cut off before the institution will have
healthy growth. There has been AM
is too much theology talked among
people and by preachers to accomplish

THE EDITOR DECLARES HIMSELF,

Moberly Democrat: A fact that
eludes the minds of most people is that
a newspaper is run for the simple and
yet sublime purpose of making a living
for is owners. The general impression
seems to prevail that all such institu-
tions are simply to build up the town,
yell for the party ticket, advertise
mems good qualities (Which they have
and which they haven't,) suppress evil
reports, make peoples enterprises sue
ceed, hire help at good wages and farm
it out for sweet charitys sake, allow
itself to be censured, maligned and
abused for sins of omission along these
lines as well as commission by every
gander-legged galoot that has been
permitted to take the paper and not
pay for it. and awake with a bland
smile and go to church three times on
Sunday. This, dear reader, is all
mistake. These are not the only am
bitions an editor has: these are mere
incidents to his work; these are his de-
lights. his dreams and his happiness,
but the one increasing purpose that
runs through the ages of a journalistic
sojourn is to find fat for his own mar
row and soothing syrup for the orphans
at home

There was considerable complaint
among the Negroes of Iowa last year
because there were so few to represent
them in the Republican state conven-
vention. While we had three delegates
in the Republican state convention to
none in the Democratic convention of
last year, yet the proportion was not
equal to the number of Negro voters in
Iowa. We believe that the Negroes of
Iowa should show more interest in the
political affairs of the state and country
if they desire to accomplish good for
themselves. The German vote receives
recognition in Iowa far beyond it's
actual Importance from the fact that
they are active and united. An insult
to a German candidate for postmaster
in Des Moines caused the defeat of a
Democratic candidate for congress in
the second district. What must the
Negroes do when respecta bic member
of their race is insulted? The answer
is obvious. Nothing can be accomplish
ed by waiting until election day be-
fore showing your political activity and
political faith. There should be an
organization in every county i'll the
state. Such an organization will pro-
tect the respectable Negroes Of Iowa
from political tramps and charalatans
from other state and from those Of this
character whonreside within its borders
who have no higher motive than to
make the Negro vote mere matter of
merchandise and who will sell their
''efforts" to the highest bidder. In
such an organization personal diff
ferences must be laid aside for the
benefit of the general good of all.

Osl1aloosa has not Negro on its
police force. The many worthy citizens
of that city should meet and select a
good man from their number and
present his name to the appointing
power and stick to him until he is
placed on the force. There are many
Negro property holders and good
citizens in that city who could do much
for any one whom they might select.
In Des Moines there were three
Negroes on the police force and there
are now two who are spoken of as
among the best and most faithful men
in the employ of the city. There will
be one or two more placed on the force
when steady and faithful man is
recommended. Besides there are three
fremen and one in the employ Of the
city engineer, and large numbers are
employed as laborers on city improve
ments. United action will accomplish
wonders

The Republican county convention
will be called on to select men for
county offices. The intelligence and
judgment the convention displays in
the selections will have it's effect on the
entire ticket. Men thoroughly honest
and competent are in demand. The
candidates for the Office of sheriff are
numerous and of excellent ability. In
this connection we desire to call
attention to the name of John Dorr.
He is new man as Il candidate for
office, but old in the councils of the
Republican party and it's work. He is
a farmer and resides in Walnut town
ship, and there is not a man in the
county more in touch with the masses
and the business interests of the county
than John Dorr. He has successfully
managed his own business interests,
and will, if nominated, bring the same
business judgment, intelligence and
economy to the Office of sheriff of Polk
county.
