the court room and assembled the bench,
attiled in that judicial robe of black

A brief but appropriate prayer
was offered by Rev. II. S. Pinkham of
the South Paris Baptist church, and the
ordinary formal opening proclamations

Don't Want Mixed Schools.

The abominablo mixed schools
system of Ohio is obnoxious to the
colored people, whether 1t is TO a
majority of the whites over there
or not. At Ironton they have
started movement for separate
schools, What better evidence DO
the equality-slobbering dema-
gogues want OF the absolute failure
of their efforts? Mixed schools
have had test Of several years In
Ohio. 1t has brought about a
number OF intermarriages Of the
races, but the movement at Iron
ton shows how unsatisfactory and
unnatura the system is, even to
the inferior race.
The Iron ton Register says;
"The advisability Of mixed
schools has been debatable
question in this community ever
since the separate schools for color
ed children were abandoned some
years ago, and 1t has remained
for the colored people themselves
to advocate return to the former
system of separate schools.n
"ro this end number OF the
leading Afro-American citizens OF
Ironton have placed in circulation
a petition to the Board OF Educa-
tion, asking that separate school
building be erected for the child
rem OF colored residents. 1t is
understood that the proposition
has the almost unanimous support
OF our colored people, and that
their wishes In the matter Will be
accoded to by the school board
when the matter is formally
brought to their attention.
