that such marplOts as Col. Talbert ad-

he receives vociferous and uncOuth

Asa matter of fact the Negro is the
backbone of southern industry. He is
a producer for others, but his labor is
the essential ingredient in the taxable
quality of his production. He Ia a

revenue derived from his brawny
muscles, is contributing to the educa

are facts.

fair play.
Our prayer is that there will rise
up in many quarters, proud, high
