ter bout dem Grand Fountain Min |
utes.
Dear Magno :-Having seem where
you caught by conversation with the
deacon few weeks ago. hereby ask
ed you to grant me few lines in your
column about those minutes. I learn
ed from a reliable source that those
colored folks will not let colored folks
print the minutes which concerned
the. 80 600 colored folks. l am told that
Messrs. Taylor & Tay:or. a white firm
will do the work and get the money
and the colored folks will get the taffy
on a stick by putting the imprint" of
the Grand Fountain on them. Now,
Magno, can you tell me why it is that
the leaders OF an organization who say
they are for race pride" can do such a
thing? We have four colored print
ing offices in this town that can do
most any kind of work. have visited
them. This is a shame. How much
money does that white firm donate to
the Grand Fountain each year? Why
is it that all who are in their employ
have to join the different branches of
the order to receive their starvation
wages, and some white firm who care
Ionly for their money. receive their
bounty at one time. Shame shame II

his own house is wore than an infidel.
