KELLY MlLLER-NIT.

Kelly Miller, the negro apologisi
and trimmer at Washington, ha.
been allowing his mouth to run
over again, about the negro staying
out of politics. Well, Kelly, you
are scared, and a scared man al
ways has rabbit in him. The
question of the negro staying out
of politics is strictly q personal one
and cannot be considered from any
race standpoint. There are indi-
viduals who are better of out of
politics, and then there are others.
It is time wasted for loud-mouthed,
knocked-kneed, vacilating negroes
to be running around telling the
race to run away from Its duty As
American citizens. The towards
of the Miller stripe who are afraid
to be seen on election day, should
star at home, and hide behind their
big sisters, and let the manly, self.
respecting negroes proceed in the
line of duty. So long as the negro
must be answerable to the demands
of government, so long viii he
clamor for moro of its benefits. As
long as he has the right to suffer
taxation to support government, so
long will he concern himself with
the question of who hollis the
Offices, and negroes of the Kelly
kind might as well understand it.
