Politics vs.. DIsfranchisement
From the Pittsburgh. Pa. Independent.

From the Pittsburgh Pa. Independent
1t now seems as if President Roose-
welt would revOlutiOnize politics 10
the far South where the 2 epublicans
iun nothing and are content to go to
national conventions. and be appoint
ted TO Federal Offices. The President
says he desires thiS factienal fighting
TO cease, and that he wants to see a
united effort on the part of Southern
Republicans, to send some man to
Congress. Of course this will never
come to pass. Roosevelt sits down
and sees the Negro disfranchised;
expresses regrets TO a lyncher be-
cause he was not confirmed for Office,
and then expects Republican Con
greSSmen from the South. when the
great voting strength of the party is
disfranchised. Why he talks like
lunat'C.
Yes it seems as if the President
is more interested in southern re-
publican organizations than he is
in the Acknowledgement of the
Southern negro. 1t would not have
been in bad tas-e, if he had told
Pritchard that his recent move was
out of order.

Just AS Good.

From the Birmingham, Ala. Free Speech
The colored man is as good an
American as any white man when h :
is an intelligent native o. this coun-
try. He has the same general traits,
habits and ambition that the white
man has. He loves his country, her
flag, her institutions He loves free
dom, liberty and justice; he loves his
franchise aud equal right under he
law, and will have them here or be
transported TO the Isles of the sea.
The colored man has been the back
bone of the republican party so far as
numbers are concerned, since there
has been a party in the South. A
handful Of white republicans, seem
ingly backed up by a certain element
of the democratic party have disfran-
chised him regardless of the effect If
may have on the race and party. OF
course the colcTed man has no rights

men having the affair in charge declare
that they don't want negro committee
men TO associate with white people;
and that they must have a separate

impressed by the fact that even in a
tropical forest animals have to work
hard for a living. Some of them travel
miles every day to get food. and have
all kinds Of trouble in finding a safe
place to spend the night Even ele-
plants are very careful about their
sleeping places. They hate snakes. and
before lying down they carefully tram
pie over large area to kill or drive
out reptiles and rodents. And big as
they are they go in herds for greater
