Ever since the News and Obser-

Democratic papers of the State and
South, has worn itself Einto a frazzle
and then worn the frazzle1 out
squalling 'the negro party = and
saying the Democratic party was
''the white mans party" 1t and
the lesser lights would say that the
Republican party was "the negro
party" When the Republicans
would start to show that it was not,

credit the Observer with not know
ing any better, with having no bet
ter sense. But the Observer has
given itself away on this as in 9
thousand of other things it has said:
In its issue Of the 7th, it gives its
own self the lie. For under a7.bie
head line "For Negro Party,' the
Observer says:
The first step looking to the or
ganizatiOn of National negro party
have been taken in this city (Phila
delphia). Prominent negroes-Bish
ops, ministers, editors and lawyers
at meeting yesterday decided tx
place party ticket in the field will

organize the party in every State o
the union, nominate candidates fo
State and Congressional Offices.
It's true this was an associated
press dispatch, but the Observer di'
not correct it by an editorial. AM
in publishing it without comment
rather shows that it welcomes sue
a party. The Observer knows tina
as the people have begun to think
they can no longer be fooled wit
the cry of negro party.
In this State, the Democrats ca
ry the negro counties. In the NJ
tiOnaI elections, the Democrats carr
