But, unable to blind it's eyes to the

OF Negro dlsfranchiSemen our con.
te nporary speaks lis mind:
Our platform declares that imperialism
is the great issue of the campaign, yet in
our own hearts we know it is our desire and

OF the Constitution, just as the Indians the
Kanakas and the FIlipinos are being gov
erned outside of the Oonsti utioa. We can

The right and power Of the United

"Outside of the Constitution" has never
been questioned since the foundation
OF the country. The power so to govern
the people of the territories and of all
territory belonging to the United
States" whether they bs in New
Mexico, Alaski, Hawaii or Luzon, is
not seriously debatable. But between
the government of such people without
their consent, for which the republican
party is now imme diately resp 1nsible.
and the government without con-

TO establish in its great stronghold of

The India rs, the Kanakas and the
FiiipinOs have never received the
right of outrage. The Negroes are full
American citizens and have voted for
more than thirty years. In that time
the black race has been responsible for
no crime against the franchise, no
despotic Overturning OF the popular
will, no debasement of the courts, no
governmental wrong.
There Is a still more radical difference
between the Filipinos, for whom
BRYAN and his people lash themselves
into indignation, and the American Ne
grOes, fer whom the Bryanites seek to
take away the right Of self government.
