THE DELINEAToR FOR APRIL.

The April Delineator is an uneom.
monty interesting magazine, from the
standpoint OF both fashion and literary
features. Almost as good as a trip
around the world, eduoationally,
promises to be the pictorial series
Around the World in Eighty Pictures,
the grst installment Of which appears
in this number. Nordica in Holiday
Time is the subject of an enjoyable
paper by William Armstrong in the
Prima Dona series. Landon Knights
Romance of a Pair of Bluebirds is q
story that will appeal strongly to
lovers of Nature, and TO all women DR..
Grace Peckham Murray s article on the
ears and nose will be of deepest inter-
est. In Beauty for Ashes, Allen
Sutherland tell of an interesting ex-
pertinent that has been tried in several
large cities of changing unbeautiful
vacant lots into arden spots. The
Influence of Frills, by Dolf Wyllarde,
and White Man, by Alice MacGowan
are delightful short stories, finely illus
trated, and there are delightful short
stories, finely illustrated, and there is
dramatic chapter of The Evolution of q
Club Woman, by Agnes Surbridge. In
addition there are entertaining stories
and pastimes for little folks by Albert
Bigelow Paine, Gabrielle E. jackson,
Lima Beard, and others, and for every
phase OF the household information Of
practical character.

The Polk county republican conven-
tion was held last Saturday in the Y.
M. C. A. auditorium and after nomin-
ating Congressman Hull for the eighth
term and the nomination of the bal
ance of the county and township off,
GERS the convention then was in abso-
ulte control of the Hull element. They
selected forty-one delegates to the
state convention to select delegates to
the national convention and they did
not select even one colored man to
represent the LOO colored. voters.
Then they proceeded to select forty
one delegates to the state convention
to nominate state officers and then
they put on only one colored man, Mr..
Chas. b Woods. Th hen they auth herized
Congressman Hull to select forty-one
more delegates to the congressional
convention. So 1t is safe to predict
as usual when that element is in con-
troll the colored man gets the little end
of the spoils. The colored people are
entitled to and usually gets from to
8 delegates to each convention. Per-
haps they are prorating us according
to the unit of votes they received
from the colored man and not the
amount of colored voters in Polk
county.

We notice in the above article that
The Negro Editor, Jno. Sharp, is still
roaming around, licking out his
smooth tongue, telling lies and deceiv-
ing the people. 1t is as true as it has
been afore stated that Sharp is not n
citizen of Buxton, and is only canvass
ing the state, beating, hoodooing the
people out of their money.
He is a swindler, and every thing
but an honest man, and now he is
making it his business to keep away
from Buxton so as not to face the peO-
pie. He sends his papers here by the
hack or liveryman and gets his mail
the same way, and any man that is a
close observer Of good breeding can
see at glance that Sharp is rascal.
And we can prove every word we say
about him.
He is trying hard to hold his paper
up until the campaign so he can by
his slick tongue rake in some CAM
paign boodle And we say to all news
paper men beware of one Jno. Sharp,
, editor of the so.called Buxton Eagle,
which he claims everywhere he goes
is published in Buxton, which is q lie.
But 1t makes it hard for our leading
colored papers to have a forerunner
like this man swindling and deceiving
the people.
He is a man that can, carry his
printing outfit in his pocket. The
Iowa State Bystander and The Buxton
Gazette are the only colored newspa-
pers in Iowa. Sharp has sWindler's
windsheet headed the Buxton Eagle,
and he will keep his game up until he
is safely behind the bars at Fort
Madison. The Buxton Gazette.

lost, than never to have loved at ALL"

MULTUM IN PARVO.
BY Everett Mcneil

It takes more tact to tell lie, sue
cessfully, than it does to tell the truth.
Friendship, like gold, needs the acid
test of adversely to determine its
purity.
Many man while looking at the
stars has stumbled over stone and
broke his neck.
An old hat and threadbare coat
will shed friends, even as ducks
feathers shed water,
More people rust out than are work
ed out.
The best sort of success is the success
that helps others to help themselves:
Hard work, not cleverness, wrests
the best success from opportunity.
You cannot judge the amount of q
mans bank account by the height and
texture Of his silk hat.
1t is easy to find something good to
say of success, but the struggler must
go . begging for encouragement.
